On a round of the Naddle Forest hills. 1" domed bolt on small area of slab rock at ground level; paced at 1.5m due S of the small cairn. Grass/moss etc encroaching, cut some away. Approx 120m N of Hare Shaw, which also has a cairn.

1" bolt in slabby outcrop near cairn. 10 mile route, out via water board road, back via Seat Robert and Sleddale, not the quickest route! My two fell running friends slightly bemused by trig!

First of 5 peak mixed trig/Wainwright day. Approached from Hawswater via the corpse path. Have to admit to searching around wrong cairn and not having faith in GPS...silly! Easy to find once you locate the right peak and cairn. Vast views towards Shap and the pennine escarpment on a beautiful clear day.

Looking eastwards towards Shap. Map marks the bolt.
