    Tips

    August 4, 2018

    The descent from Helvellyn to Thirlmere via Comb Crags isn't the most technical one from the mountain, but it still has plenty of challenges. It's steep in places, with substantial switchbacks. If you tackle it in the winter... actually, probably best that you don't. It doesn't get much sun, and the path is likely to be extremely icy!
