I'm on another Langdale Pikes climb, the main objective this time
being
to scale Loft Crag which is the only summit in this section of the
Lakes
I've never ascended. Though I did attain this objective the weather was
poor and I ran out of time. The photographic record of the walk is poor
and sketchy.

Sergeant
Man
It's been a fairly nasty climb thanks to the volume of water in the ground, but I've climbed up past Easedale and Codale tarns and am on the eastern flank of Sergeant Man. This is the view of Ambleside and Windermere. |

Sergeant
Man (4)
The summit of Sergeant Man (2414ft). Sergeant Man is not really a separate fell, and technically not even a "top", but actually a mere "bump" on the edge of the summit plateau of High Raise. |

Pike
O'Stickle
Pike O'Stickle (2323ft) is a tricky climb requiring a mild scramble to ascend its summit dome. This is the view northwest looking over Langstrath towards Derwentwater and Skiddaw. |

Pike
O'Stickle from Loft Crag
Loft Crag is the "third" Langdale Pike and the lowest, at 2270ft. Here I'm looking westwards to Pike O'Stickle. |
