Winter walks, even on the lower fells, are not for the inexperienced or under-equipped. Navigational skills are needed but no specialist equipment. Any scrambling is easy and non-scrambling alternatives are always provided. A fresh perspective on classic summits in the Lakes including Helvellyn, Fairfield, Catstycam, Dollywaggon Pike, St Sunday Crag and Red Screes, and an inspiring introduction to lesser-known Lakeland fells such as Sheffield Pike and Clough Head; superlative ridge walking including the iconic Fairfield Horseshoe
