Parking at Cow Bridge north of Brothers Water, we took the trail beside the lake to Hartsop Hall, crossed the beck by a bridge, and then worked our way steeply up the north ridge of High Hartsop Dodd to the little cairn on the summit. With hardly any dip to the col, we ascended up to the craggy summit of Little Hart Crag, now in hill-fog.
To descend, we headed south down to Scandale Pass, taking the wet path down Caiston Glen to rejoin our outward route.
Cloudy, mizzle and damp, with a little sunshine. Strong south-west wind. With DB.
