Walked up from Horton the "non-scrambly" route via Horton Scar Lane and down the same way. Although it was rather blustery, there were plenty of sunny intervals and the wind kept the rain away. A very pleasant and not too strenuous walk with stunning views. Summit not too busy, however there were a few people sitting in the shelter close to the trig which was a wee bit off-putting when I was doing my trig photography from various angles thing! Lovely to see another local stone trig and glad we managed to bag one of the Y3P at long last :-D

Ascended via Brackenbottom on a beautiful, if crisp, spring day. Quite blustery and chilly at the summit, pretty busy today too. Can't be far off 20 years since I last walked up here with Phil. Pillar is built of local stone, didn't have a good look as quite busy around it but seemed in decent nick.

Parked at main car park in Horton in Ribblesdale. Short walk down road to Pennine Way then relatively gentle climb down lose stone paths until a steep climb to the top. After 9 other trigs this week we decided it would be easier to return the same way rather than what looked like a much steeper way down the other side. Trig 101 for myself and Mrs P together. Lovely week spent in Yorkshire Dales!

Visited during a group hike to complete the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge. At the time we experienced strong cross winds making for tough conditions. That said it was a great experience and very enjoyable with some great views along the way including Ribblehead Viaduct. This was the first of three pillars and this also offered great views albeit a little obscured on one side by the shelter. It appears to be in generally good condition albeit there are signs of some running repairs and the original centre for the spider has been replaced with concrete or similar.

First visit to Pen-y-Ghent as part of the Yorkshire 3 peaks. Clear start but as soon as we left the summit we had torrential rain pretty much all day. Nice start to the day though and a fun little scramble up to the top.

An overnight bivvy camp on the summit of Pen-y-Ghent with 16th Harrogate Scouts. Left Horton in Ribblesdale around 8:30pm and ascended via Brackenbottom summiting around 10:30pm. Summit drink then settles down for the night in bivvy bags few hundred metres N of summit. In the morning hot drinks and porridge and descended ay back to Horton arriving in time for the cafe to open. Weather was fine & clear, having been very hot recently a night at higher altitude was very comfortable. During the ascent of the southern flank crag there was a fresh north easterly blowing making it feel quite exposed.

Peak very busy as our 3 peak visit coincided with 2 major charity walks which was OK as I didn't need to refer to my explorer map once all of the way around due to the string of walkers. Unfortunately no views due to low cloud and heavy rain but surprisingly dry underfoot considering the thunderstorms of the previous night.

1st of 3 trigs today as part of the 3 Peak Challenge. We hadn't anticipated the number of people descending at Horton-in-Ribblesdale to do this walk. Very windy on the summit and had to bide our time for a photo opportunity next to this stone built trig point.

HISTORY: Pillar completed 11th November 1949, cost not on record. Computed as tertiary triangulation station SD96/T37 within the Skipton block during 1951. Levelled for height also in 1951. Last maintained by the OS in July 1976. SITE VISIT: Overall approach from the south. Ample parking by SE side of public road at SD844715. An honesty box requests a contribution towards upkeep of the footpaths etc. 50p or £1 depending on length of stay which I have no qualms about and happily paid. (I will always avoid the Pay & Display extortion rackets imposed in the surrounding towns). Followed the Pennine Way as mapped to the summit. Stone built pillar in good condition, to SE side of boundary wall. Spider centre plugged with tar. Flush bracket faces SSE, ~152°. All four sight holes open but blocked with mossy debris. Full 360° panoramic view includes the other two `3-peaks`, Ingleborough and Whernside.

Caught train from Skipton to Horton in Ribblesdale then followed Pennine Way over Pen-y-ghent then via Litton and Arncliffe to catch last bus back to Skipton from Kettlewell - An excellent walk. The only downside was that my timing to the summit coincided with a shower and hill cloud for half an hour. (Been to summit a number of times but often timed it badly with poor weather. Even got caught in a thunderstorm near the summit many years ago)

Pennine Way Day 12 of 17. This was the first hill I ever climbed, the one that got me into it. I've been up here many times since, this is my first time since logging on here, a good one as I'm on the PW. First time I've climbed it from the north route. As a proud Yorkshireman it's hard to mark down - only the crowds and the unforgivable summit litter bring it down. Climbing down the nose with a big rucksack was fun!

That said, an excellent and largely deserted walk with a stunning pair of red grouse on the way down. Stone built, asphalt cap, all s/holes open, otherwise vgc.

Pathfinder Guides - Yorkshire Dales (2010). Clockwise circuit from Horton-in-Ribblesdale with a short detour to Hull Pot. Pen-y-ghent is a truly impressive hill which alas means the summit is rather too popular for my liking (hence the modest score). Great if a little hazy views of Ingleborough but a pity about the quarry to the SW. Stone pillar with original cap replaced by tarmac. My 100th pillar.

Walked with members of Aldridge Running Club and part of my personal challenge of ticking off as many trig points as I can in a year in aid of Prostate Cancer Research. Absolute procession of people to summit and around the route. Weather warm & sunny with some welcome high cloud.

Second visit here for me and Dr Mike, the first as part of completing the Yorkshire Three Peaks as teenagers on 30/08/1981; since when he had spent most of his adult life living in Sweden. He'd come back for a weeks holiday in the UK to join me bag as many Scottish Munros as we could, I'd collected him from Manchester Airport and this was a little 'warm up' exercise (and exercise in nostalgia) before the bigger challenges we'd set ourselves in the week to come.

Love the walk up Pen-y-ghent from all sides - on this occasion came at it from the Founatins Fell side, up the steep rocky patch (which took some negotiating with a 5 year old daughter in tow!!!) Lovely February day - great fortune to find it so warm and sunny at that time of year. Views from the top were marvellous and there were loads of people up there enjoying the unseasonably nice weather. One of my favourite walks ever!

Not the first time I have been here, but certainly the first time since the YDNP built the windbreak to celebrate 50 years of the National Park. I seem to think that it was supposed to be 'opened' by Alan Michael, the Minister for the Environment in Oct. 2004, but he chickened out, afraid that he was going to be ambushed by a crowd of protestors against New Labour's bill banning hunting! Don't know therefore who 'opened' it. Beautiful day, far-ranging views.

A cold and snowy climb to the top, things have changed a bit since 'ted' was up here in September, thay have built a wall in an 'S' shape for shelter with some seats and the stiles have gone, have been replaced by a gate through the wall, it's all very nice. Was intending to do 'THE 3' but the snow drifts just made it impossible. A great day out though. Lots of others thought so too. TP is still in good condition with a concreate plug and all metalwork intact. 2nd visit; 7 May 2005

Retro log. Day 11 on the Pennine Way heading South. Set out from H.I.R in pouring rain and it never stopped until we crossed Fountains fell. No visibility from P-Y-G just low cloud and lots of rain. Low score due to conditions.

What can one say, this was my/our first visit and since then I/we have been up innumerable times & in every type of weather imaginable and every way possible. Its a goody but the erosion is begining to hurt - go midweek to avoid the crowds. The newish wind break is a welcome addition. On July 2006s visit we watched a local sheep eat a banana (skin and all!) - which isnt something you see everyday (wasnt from one of our group I hasten to add (the sheep or the banana!!)). The snowy photos are from 27/12/2005 visit - the distant view is by Sue (my wife) - on that occasion by the time wed reached the trig the weather was poor - cloud & close mist on the summit. No cars, train then on foot!

Did this on my Pennine Way walk. Was quite knackered after the walk from Malham so did not spend much time exploring before heading down to Horton. I did notice that the path up the hillwas like a motorway, however, with twin ladder stiles over the walls.

Visited to record FB number. The pillar was completed 11th November 1949, cost not on record. In 1951 this marker was computed as tertiary station SD96/T37 in the Skipton secondary block. Flush bracket S5776 was levelled for height also in 1951. This trig point was last maintained by the OS in July 1976. Pillar built with local stone.

Its a long time ago but I was at 6th form college when we stayed a February weekend at Stainforth Youth Hostel. We all climbed Pen-y-Ghent in the snow on the Sunday. I worked out it was 1978 as we were warned off drinking alcohol, and that applied to those in the Upper Sixth as well as my year. Later returned (to Pen-y-Ghent, not the pub) with parents but have no idea of that date
