Ascent of Pike of Blisco and Crinkle Crags. 9.5 miles. Walkers Danny and son Dominic.

After parking up on the NT carpark by The Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel we set off up the valley.
                                        Crinkle Crags from the valley floor.
After climbing up to the crossing of the paths, to the right is the path up to Crinkle Crags, we will come back here but first we go left to Pike of Blisco.
                        A sheltered spot for dinner before a short climb to the top.
