In reply to Nicholas Livesey:
Would just like to say thank you very much, completed this route today in perfect summer conditions, was even treated to a cloud inversion and morning frost with blue sky allday, yes in November.
I have done Grasmoor before but never over to White Side always abonding it for the Wandope-Rannerdale Knots descent.
Didn't manage Lorton Gully as was too greasey from past rain fall, but moved together over some grade 2/3 terrain on the crags under Grasmoor End and had one of them days you only get a few times a year, the ridge over White Side is definately one of the best in Lakeland all in all had a classic ridge walk with some great scrambling. (be warned though the rock on Grasmoor is extremely shattered and very brittle with loose blocks everywhere)
Anyway sorry for the lecture but keep em coming!!!
