Selside Pike

Distance/Ascent

10km   368m

Time Taken

3h 30min

Notes

I had planned to walk in to Mosedale Cottage by way of the Old Corpse Road but it was late so I walked in via Gatescarth Pass arriving around 11:15 pm when it was getting very dark. It was my first night in this fine bothy since seeing in the new millennium there.

Below: The summit of Branstree. There are much larger cairns away from the summit. There was a convenient fence post on which to mount the camera (time delay).
