*Causey Pike, Scar Crags and Sail

Have done this walk a couple of times, an exhillerating ridge walk once the top oof Causey pike was attained. We parked between Uzzicar and Stoneycroft, walked along the road to the steep double bend and took the path towards Causey Pike,this time skirting around the bottom of Rowling end.
An easy pull up tp the col then and a steeper more rocky ascent to the summit. The a ggreat ridge walk along to sail with mixed weather over Scar Crags turning to thick cloud heading for Sail. The view of thepath up to Sail form Scar Crags looks completely out of place being such a doominant feature of the landscape.
We decided not to go on to Crag Hill as the weather was deteriorating, so headed off Sail down the grotesque path and then syreight down to the valley for the treck back to the car.
