We met and started this route from Honister Slate Mine and the NT Car Park which is free for members. We headed NW out of the car park, past Bell Crags and Black Star and on to Fleetwith Pike at 648m. The views from here were some of the best i have seen in the Lakes, looking over Buttermere & Ennerdale Water. We dropped SE down to Dubs Quarry and Dubs Hut were we bumped into two Welsh RRW Vets up there for a couple of nights. Its then a cracking climb back up onto Brandreth 715m over saturated ground before continuing NE on to Grey Knotts at 697m. The route back down (again NE) is steep and slippery when wet. I would definitely look for a better even longer alternative route off next time.
