The walk up Dale Head from Honister Slate Mine is quite short with only 400m of ascent. Wainwright has this to say. "No other summit of like altitude is reached so quickly and easily from a motor road. Indeed, if a car is used to the top of the pass, a man of conscience must feel he is cheating the mountain." I But one this day of extreme heat it felt like quite hard work. From here a very pleasant walk leads to Robinson along Littledale Edge. There are wonderful views south to the hills round Great Gable and northwest to the hills around Grasmoor. I detoured out on the way back to collect Hindscarth with which I completed the Nuttalls in the NW Fells. I got back to the Slate Mine just in time before the café stopped serving ice cream.
