My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on. -

Scafell from Borrowdale ROUTE
Scafell Pike from Borrowdale The main ridge of the Scafell Pike massif is traversed on its northwest flank by a spectacular path known as the Corridor Route. It climbs a rough but steady route from Sty Head to Lingmell Col from where it is a simple climb up the summit screes to the top of Scafell Pike passing along the way through some of England's finest mountain scenery. Sty Head can of course be gained from Wasdale but if you reach it from Borrowdale it will allow you a return over the main ridge taking in Broad Crag, Ill Crag and Great End after which you can descend via Esk Hause and the dramatic course of the Grains Gill path. Grade: Strenuous Start/Finish: Seathwaite, Borrowdale (GR NY 236 122) Distance: 14 miles (8.7km) Time: 7 hours Height gain: 1053m Terrain: valley, rocky gill, rough craggy fellside, scree and rocky summit ridge. Maps: OS Landranger 90, OS Explorer OL 4 & 6, Harveys' Superwalker (1:25 000 Western Lakeland). 1. Take the bridleway south to Stockley Bridge, cross it and climb the steep zig-zags west then head south west alongside Styhead Gill to Styhead Tarn. 2. Turn east at the stretcher box and follow the bridleway a short distance to a fork. Take the right branch and descend onto the Corridor Route which is followed as it climbs steadily south southwest to Lingmell Col. Turn left and follow the rough path over scree and boulders south east to Scafell Pike. 3. From the summit of Scafell Pike head north east along the main ridge past Broad Crag and Ill Crag to the col at the head of Calf Cove. -
