| A signposted lane between the cottages of Bridgend is the starting point for this walk. There are lay-bys for parking on either side of Deepdale Bridge |
 |
| The lane gives access to a path leading across the fields. The first objective is to reach the pass of Boredale Hause seen here in the centre between Place Fell and Dubhow Crag. The path to the hause can be seen rising below the steep flank of Dubhow Crag |
 |
| Looking across to Hartsop Dodd and Caudale Moor from the field path |
 |
| After crossing a stile the path joins a short section of farm road on the approach to Goldrill Beck |
 |
| Across the bridge a short track gives access to a rough lane which runs between Rooking and Hartsop |
 |
| The lane is only followed for a hundred yards or so before leaving it for a wide path which climbs steadily to Boredale Hause |
 |
| Looking back to Brothers Water and Kirkstone Pass |
 |

 |
| Boredale Hause, the meeting place of many paths which can be confusing on a first visit |
 |
| Nethermost Pike, Helvellyn, Catstycam, Birkhouse Moor, Raise, Stybarrow Dodd, Sheffield Pike and Hart Side from Boredale Hause |
 |
| The path to Angle Tarn crosses the stream beyond the collapsed marker cairn. The start of the path is surprisingly vague considering it is part of the popular Coast to Coast route but it soon becomes very clear on the ground as height is gained |
 |
| Looking over towards Dove Crag, Hart Crag, Fairfield, St. Sunday Crag, and Helvellyn from the start of the path to Angle Tarn |
 |
| The path soon passes through a short ravine between the slopes of Stony Rigg and Rake Crag |
 |
| Looking back to Place Fell |
 |
| The summit of Angletarn Pikes from the top of Dubhow Beck. The path divides at this point, the upper, and clearer, path is the one usually taken by the Coast to Coast walkers and is handy for an ascent of Angletarn Pikes. The lower one traverses across the slopes of Dubhow Brow and has better views. Both paths eventually re-unite as they approach Angle Tarn |

 |
| Continuing along the well worn Coast to Coast path over the summit ridge of Satura Crag. Rest Dodd is on the left with Rampsgill Head and The Knott in the centre skyline with part of High Street on the right |
 |
| Looking back along the summit ridge of Satura Crag |
 |
| The Coast to Coast path over Satura Crag is only followed for a short distance before a distinct path turns off to the left. The path descends slightly to cross the head of Bannerdale before rising to the top of a grass knoll below the western slopes of Rest Dodd, a good viewpoint |
 |
| Rampsgill Head and The Knott from the top of the grass knoll |
 |
| Thornthwaite Crag, Gray Crag, Caudale Moor, Red Screes and Hartsop Dodd from the top of the grass knoll |
 |

| Approaching the north west ridge of Rest Dodd |
 |
| Looking back to Satura Crag and Buck Crag across the head of Bannerdale |
 |
| Ignore the path turning off to the right which leads up to the summit of Rest Dodd. The access path to The Nab continues straight on over the ridge |
 |
| Approaching the Martindale Deer Reserve enclosure wall. The gap in the wall once had a fixed hurdle across it, this has been missing for some time now |
 |
| A glimpse of Angle Tarn through the gap in the enclosure wall |
 |
| Although The Nab is now open access land, it is in a red deer conservation area. To avoid undue disturbance to the deer population, the Dalemain Estate requests that walkers access the summit by a simple out and back route along its connecting ridge with Rest Dodd. Follow a path alongside the enclosure wall to a stile near the foot of Rest Dodd's north ridge |

 |
| A clear path leads down from the stile to the col, the path avoids most of the peat hags on the col |
 |
