Anyone done Sharp Edge?


Did it this morning started at threlkeld and went up blecathra by halls fell which is an excellent climb on its own walked back down to scales tarn and with the help of someone who'd crossed sharp edge before i completed it (kept as high as poss on ridge too) tbh with it being dry rock it was only terrifying but i really enjoyed it and would deffo do it again as long as it not wet as the rock is really smooth and would become lethal.
No pics today as i kept camera in bag the less distractions the better B)

Brave man doing sharp edge... dont blame you for leaving the camera.. i bet you were bricking it.. but good on yer marra for doing it. Halls fell ridge its a good one to climb up to the summit..plenty of variation in it

Wouldnt have done it on my todd mate when looked at it from scales tarn it looked impossible going across there were a couple of times where you do step out over the edge a bit whilst holding on with two hands hmy: as for bricking it more nervous but as ive said very enjoyable halls fell was class bit of everything and a rapid climb to summit for a change .

May get camera out next time round

Looking forward to your sharp edge video mark its inevitable B)

We knew you mixed in "high" circles Mark, but Lord Snowdon?

No wonder your pictures are good.

You must have a screw loose attempting that in this weather. Ice axe&crampons should give you a clue.

There’s nothing worse than getting a severe attack of the crampons whilst on the fells.
