Melfyn Parry walked up Pike of Stickle (Pike o' Stickle) on November 17th, 2024 [from/via/route] Started walk from car park opposite New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, NY295063. Walked through the National Trust car park & up a track towards Mark Gate eventually reaching Loft Crag, from here we went over to have a little scramble up Pike of Stickle. The path over to Harrison Stickle is a bit boggy in parts but on reaching the summit we then made our way over to Pavey Ark which affords great views down to Stickle Tarn. From here we followed the path to the summit of Thunacar Knott. By now the weather was worsening with quite heavy snow showers, so a plan to continue over to High Raise was abandoned. We returned towards Pavey Ark before descending to Stickle Tarn. The weather was calmer down here & a straight forward path took us back to the start point. [with] DS & MW [weather] Cool initially, turning very cold when the snow started to fall. Visibility was variable with occasional breaks in the cloud affording good views
