looking like either grisedale pike or causey pike?.

Any other suggestions? I'm trying to piece together a route to take in a couple of fave descents, I've been up gasgale gill, but never headed east so unsure which way to go.

Cheers, Greg.

Grisedale drops you a fair way from Littletown. You can ride round via crag hill/sail (not all rideable) then drop right (south) from the col between sail and scar crags down a little trod to the rigg beck footpath, then follow that to Newlands and on to Littletown. The Rigg beck descent is a hoon! Alternative is left at the same col, down exposed path to stony croft gill and follow that down, a fast mine track with some loose boulders but all rideable. Causey pike ok, but need to scramble down off the summit first, and don't continue over Rowling end.
