Had a planned route to tick off 9 wainwrights and 6 nuttalls. Wind speeds reached 90kmh+. Aborted Skiddaw Little Man, to bypass it and have a chance of 'trying' to summit Skiddaw and descend via Carlside (Left a car parked at Millbeck). In the end couldn't keep upright, was far too arduous and gusts were blowing us up to 3-4 metres off track. Also stones being blown up into face - so decided to go back down off Jenkin Hill. Can't say it was any easier and winds barely dropped right down to the 300m mark.
