Steel Fell to Helm Crag. | |
A walk with Rob, James, Jack and Bob - 28th Dec 2005 | |
We started out from Grasmere taking the
Easedale Road as far as Goody Bridge then turning right
to Ghyll Foot. Our route takes us up the southeast ridge of Steel Fell from Ghyll Foot, as seen here in the picture |

Finally we descend via the famous rocks
at the southeast end of the ridge known as the Lion and
the Lamb. A cracking first walk after Christmas! |
