Easy ascent from Renwick. Nice grassy trail all the way to the trig. Returned via nearby Watch Hill in very windy conditions. Ok views but a bit too hazy to see too far. No one about.

Chose this fell to try and find one to myself without the Easter Hoards. Straight up from Renwick on a good track which got a bit squelchy midway up the open fell. Passed what I assumed were flooded mine shafts near the spoil tip .Met a fellow walker, Mike, putting up his tent next to the pillar. He'd come over from Black Fell to tick off a Hewitt. Got good views of the Lakeland mountains, far from the crowds.

Parked up in renwick and followed the track almost all the way until the last half a kilometre,which was steep boggy and plastered in snow this section was to be the end of my dry boots for the day! Still great views from the trig which was in vgc plug missing, some big snow drifts allowed me to just step over the wall enabling me to photo the view to the lakes.Did some tallying up only have 30 or so more english nuttalls left to do will have to put some time in the new year hopefully.

sensational viewpoint. overnighted between Black Fell and Watch Hill. a very tiring day before. a welcome addition to the 2000 club..more worthy than its near neighbours. the descent to Croglin felt a long way though..

I was visiting in order to bag Thack Moor, the newest of the English mountains. It was certainly a lot less busy than the Lake District yesterday! Up here you don't get a group of ladies with lots of make up and no map asking if you can show them the way down! Parked at Renwick and made the dash up and back. Nice to bag the pillar that I have only seen in a YouTube video before.

Paying homage to recently promoted summit! I always wondered as it was 1999' on my one inch map. Walked up track from Renwick then along to Watch Hill and back down. Interesting carved foundation stone type block of red sandstone in large cairn just to west of latter. Still a couple of patches of snow visible on Cross Fell.

As the previous visitor, we had to visit this new summit, as without so doing, we would not have been able to remain England (NPR) Completers on the Nuttall list.

Walked up from Renwick to bag this new Hewitt and Nuttall plus Watch Hill. Still plenty of snow about and climbed wall near trig to take this photo and to visit true summit. Trig point 15m W at NY 61153 46279 is 0.1m lower.

Visited by mistake. Was intending to carry on from Black Fell to Greynag & Tom Smith's Stone Top. Schoolboy error - didn't get my compass out to check. However it was a fortuitous mistake as the hill was found to be 2,000 ft+ the following year, so didn't have to go back. Did Greynag & TSST the following day.

Approached across boggy ground having first visited Black Fell. Easy route to follow in the clear but probably more difficult in cloud or mist. All wall crossings on the approach made easy by the provision of stiles or gates. The immediate environs of the trig point spoilt by a manky, rusty post and wire fence descending in the direction of Renwick. Otherwise excellent views particularly down the Eden valley.
