This must be one of the shortest routes between pillars (3/12)? Perfect conditions weather wise and I laugh at previous posts calling the area "No Forest of Bogland"...chose the wrong time chaps to visit...gliding/surfing over the dried up bogs. Memories/places gifted the Dozen and remembering volunteer wardening at Slaidburn, where I was introduced to Fray & Bentos pies. One visitor all week. Good planning on my part.

Plug intact; gps plaque. Very overcast; Ingleborough just visible. Each trig in this pair seemed the higher when viewed from its neighbour.

8.5 mile walk from Jubilee Tower to bag Wards Stone trigs, then round to Pendle Hill. Icey, ground rock hard.

Although this trig point is called Mallowdale Pike, it is in fact two miles away from the actual Mallowdale Pike. It is about 1/2 mile east(ish) of the Ward's Stone trig point, but is apparently 1 metre higher (though it looks lower). Both are on a plateau, so could qualify as the two nearest trig points with no discernable valley between them. See http://www.gps.gov.uk/viewpassiverec1.asp?recnumber=T1SD5958

(not) Mallowdale Pike The real Mallowdale Pike can just about be seen immediately above Toad's head (25/4/5 - no it can't - it is behind the hill shown!). I think Ingleborough is in the background.
GPS Plate The plate identifies Mallowdale Pike as being part of the National GPS Network.

Circuit from Tarnbrook to Brown Syke and then along the "access strip", returning via Grit Fell and the Tower. Lots of gulls on a misty climb.

Like Hitchcock's "The Birds" with Gulls attacking you on wet moorland as you do a trip to include Tarnbrook village.
