Eel Crag and Wandhope.

When I went up Sail, Crag Hill, Grasmoor etc with Molly last year - Click here we kind of forgot to do Eel Crag and it's a Wainwright. So yesterday, with a good forecast Steve, Rocky and I set off to do Eel Crag, ...and we added in Wandhope - a 'peak' Molly and I had looked at and thought it looked like it should be a Wainwright...and indeed it is. Yesterday we weren't constrained by time so we were able to tick it off - to be honest we just wanted to extend the walk as the weather was so balmy for February! After that we went up Grasmoor, far better going up the grassy side than straight up the path! Lovely club mosses! After that we went down to Coledale Hause and then across to the High Force mines  above Force Crag before descending to the main path down Coledale Beck. A cracking walk ending in the Coledale Inn where the dog promptly fell asleep!
