TP4102 - Ingleborough
Logged Visits:
Long walk up from Ingleton. Very windy with heavy snow for much of ascent. Plenty of deep snow towards top. Freezing wind, was glad to get back down.
Cool and windy on the top but great views
Couldn't read the flush bracket number because the ice was too thick. Small hole in concrete in the middle of spider if I recall correctly. No view today, freezing, snowy and fairly windy.
Very icy and misty
Revisit done many times couldn't resist another trip walked up main trade route from ingleborough village packed with hikers today.Bitterly cold on top summit plateux covered in ice,trig in vgc punctured asphalt plug extensive clear views snow on lakes mountains!
Perfect day for it today. Cold and clear with excelent all round views (Lakeland fells covered in snow). Stone built pillar next to large crosscairn. Quite a popular spot. Approached from Ingleton this time (5th visit)
very clear day, superb views of lakes/morecambe bay etc
Second trig on the Three Peaks in a PB time of 9hrs 5min with Charlie (age 15). Good weather but shrouded in mist on top.
Revisit. Mortar looks as though is starting to loosen; frost damage perhaps.
visibility a few yards - no scenery
Done many times, but it was such a beautiful morning I couldn't resist one more ascent!
Did this during Gold DofE practice walk. Lovely day (cue the sunburn), great to reach the top, great sights. Not too keen on the descent! Lots of 'rock steps' and such like.
Arrived and left in heavy mist/drizzle and gusty NW winds - so no view and sadly little incentive to linger. but I'm sure on a good day it's spectacular
Last of the 3 peaks. A hard climb but worth it.
Last of the 3 peaks. A hard climb but worth it.
Last of 3 peaks. A hard climb but worth it.
Good day weather very cold and windy on top, me ,Hubby and brother reached the summit at 12:06. Fairly hard walk started at Clapham passing through Trow Gill which was really good and Gaping Gill which i also found really nice. well worth a visit to both.
Nearly a total white out on top.
Walked up from Clapham but sadly there wasn't much of a view today as the cloud descended.
2nd of 3 today on 8m circ walk from Selside. Bright clear day and plenty of walkers about as its half term. Had picnic on top
Excellent walk up from Horton on a beautiful sunny day, a cold breeze at the top though. Impressive mountain.
The third and final one. Best one in my opinion. Nice plateau at top and amazing views one the cloud cleared.
Last of the yorkshire 3 peaks challenge. Being the last one the climb was made far more challenging due to fatigue. It was very misty and windy at the top but gave me a second wind when the trig finally appeared through the mist!
SUPER ALL ROUND VIEWS
Good spot
Walked up from Chapel le Dale in the late afternoon. Easy walking for the first part, then we reached the incredibly steep rock section which took some doing with a couple of little ones along for the trip. Views from the top were beautiful and far reaching in all directions on this breezy but clear evening - could make out the sea to the west and all the surrounding tops like Whernside and Pen Y Ghent. Trig in good condition, with interesting nearby features such as a cairn, wind shelter and a viewing plaque on the top centre of the wind shelter. Thoroughly enjoyable day!
Very wet up here in the clouds.
Walked up from chapel le dale revisit with mate who wanted photos of summit pity thick clag came in near top.Hundreds of walkers competing in the ASDA 3 peaks charity walk out today,one guy told me he had raised £700 every credit to them.Also did simon fell a nuttall and park fell in a round.
Nice steady walk from parking Storrs Hall
From Park Fell. Didn't stay long - too many people!
Beware the changing weather started Sunny but was covered in cloud by the time we reached the sumit (shame)
good trip to the summit. But was obscured by thick cloud, so no views across to Morcambe Bay etc. Somebody had pushed a cigarette butt into the Flush Bracket of the trig point though!
Only scored a 8 due to poor visibility,,but a cracking climb up from Clapham in the snow.
A nice bright sunny day, walked up from inglebourough village.Cold north wind blowing on fell top,many walkers out today. Very clear Could see All lakes mountains even cross fell !
Second time here in four days. Climbed from Clapham this time. Much, much better weather this time - perfect.
In the clouds with 20m visibility and gale force winds. Love it.
Dales High Way. A long hot sunny beautiful day with a lovely late afternoon visit to this delightful flat top.
Lovely day, but a slight haze meant the view wasn't all it could be. Busy as you'd expect, but my heart sank when a bunch of ramblers came chattering along. Don't they ever shut up?
last of the three peaks, great climb up, lots of people at top.
Local stone pillar. Plug filled but has a hole in it. Hoards of people. Great views all round from the edge of the plateau.
Made of local stone. Fab views in all directions. Tarmac plug
Visited whilst doing the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge. Nice stone trig, in good condition.
Final trig point of the walk. Best climb of the three on the tour. Continuation of the procession of people around the route.
Final leg of 3 peaks challenge on a very hot day.
Bagged after visiting Park Fell trig with wife and boys
Bagged today in a howling gale
Great day out Done with Park Fell
A misty and blustery visit but worth it for the champers!
Still no view due to complete cloud cover, very little snow on the ground now the month seems to have warmed considerably. Ascent from Park Fell, descent into Ingleton. With the Imperial College Fellwanderers
Walked up from Chapel-le-dale. steep ascent with snow on ground, but clear sky and excellent views
First time venturing up Ingleborough and out leading a walk.... came up from Park Fell and Simon Fell, still a fair bit of snow around too. Scrambling up to the summit was hard work but worth it... its just a shame it was really cloudy otherwise id have score this a 10.
From Sulber FBM, now off to Park Fell. No view here but great atmospherics.
climbed from ingleton this made a change as my usual approach is from clapham.driving rain and strong winds [a nasty day].difficult to stand as we reached the plateu .photographs out of the question.decended to chapel le dale then returned to ingleton via twistleton scar . 12 miles in bad weather.
Done from Crina bottoms. clouds parted just after we left the summit and it turned into a glorious day
Walked up from Horton on a very wet august day. Cloud kept clearing but thick mist by the time we were on top. Very windy too. 7/10 was for the views I saw the last time I visited here. Very dramatic landscape on top with another stone built TP.
great walk up ingleborough. no view though due to a load of mist. lots of geocaches
Done as part of Dales 3 peaks in atrocious weather. Photo from a previous visit in November 2008,the exact date not known. Revisited 28/04/2012,photo added.
Great stone pillar and good views today. Geocaching in the area.
Great views, trig in good nick
3rd of three bagged during the 3 Yorksire Peaks Charity Walk
Busy on Ingleborough today - the usual number of walkers on a fine Saturday plus runners and checkpointers on the Three Peaks Race.
Great walk up from Clapham. Bright and sunny day too.
Bagged many times
Trig in vgc, Weather Misty with Remnants of the Long Cold Winter.
Walked up from Ingleton. Fine views towards the Lakeland Fells and Morecambe Bay. Very light sprinkling of snow.
Above date most recent of fourteen visits, first on 01/04/1975. Fabulous. This time was a cold,crisp and clear day and I had the summit to myself.
Walked up from Clapham Church. Lovely views form the top to the other peaks.
hang gliders hovering overhead.
3rd of the 3 peaks. Difficult to find this or the shelter as the wind, hail and cloud all combined - Horrid up here. I'm sure this would have got a much higher score had we been able to see!
Walked up from Ingleton. Pillar in good condition stone built with Asphalt Plug. Great Views, lovely day not to Park Fell
Surprisingly my only companion up here is a nosy sheep that wants to see what's in my rucsac. After yesterday's torment the weather is pleasant with sun breaking through and there's almost no wind. Heading from Ingleton to Horton (and ultimately Scarborough).
3rd of 3 - - doing the 3 Peaks Challenge which we completed in 9 1/2 hours. Not bad for Southerners!
Walked up from Norton-In -Ribblesdale via railway station passing limestone pavement at Sulber could have bagged two more trigs TP6249 and TP4935 bad planning but will be revisiting in the future!
Walked up to Ingleborough from Ingleton and down via Dowlass Moss.
Found while three-peaking
3 of 3 Peaks, Weather sunny and dry and now for the walk back to horton for Me and Tony.
Came up via Park Fell and the "Ingleborough Ridge Route"
Trig in good condition, Cold and windy But very clear.
A great winter walk - the first one of the season for me - up from Clapham into the mist and drizzle, then the gales, the rapidly dropping temp, the driven snow, the GPS reading needed to find the trig on the summit and then the descent through the now blizzard conditions! What a great morning :)
Ingleborough and park Fell. Excellent walk up from Chapel-le-Dale passing an old lime kiln some very impressive limestone pavement and the biggest sink hole I've seen with the worrying name ( Braithwaite Wife Hole ! ) a well made path makes the going pretty easy until you get to the steep bit but that’s soon over and your soon walking over the large summit Plateau towards the well built stone trig, which is kept company buy a excellent cross shelter adorned with a commemorative sighting plaque commemorating the Queens coronation good all round views, I then headed NE along the ridge path skirting Simon Fell on to Park Fell for my second Trig of the day. Good view of the Ribblehead viaduct as I descended Park Fell then followed path east across Scar close
Climbed up from Clapham using walk 27 in OS Yorkshire Dales pathfinder guide. Cloud rather swirling around at top but occasional breaks to appeciate views. Stone built pillar. Plug missing.
Visited during the 3 peaks. Good clear views from the top, unfortunately didn't have too much time to admire them. Will definitely come back again when we have more time to enjoy the mountain and the blisters have healed!
An attractive stone built trig point. Incredibly windy up here today, came up in thick mist, found a shelter for a brew and suddenly it all cleared and the views were breathtaking.
Walked to Trig from Ingleton on a nice clear day, but found it windy at the summit. Very good views all around. Pillar in good condition.
Superb day, with excellent walk up from Igleton. Then on to Park Fell trig and back. Stone built pillar, OK condition, with stone plug. Very popular spot. Public
my 105th visit to this hill
Nice walk from Ingleton. Hot day with a nice stone built pillar at top in good condition
Foggy on top but cleared momentarily for excellent views in all directions, well worth the climb!
vgc, nicely built stone pillar, mortar plug. Cruciform summit shelter and massive cairn nearby. Fair few walkers about, sampling what may be first snow of season - good covering on ridge & summit. Very easy these days with paved path almost to summit.
Easy walk from Ingleton.Very windy with poor visibility.
Easy walk from Ingleton.Very windy with poor visibility.
Approached from Clapham via Gaping Ghyll. Hot, sunny day.
Retrospective log - part of 3 Peaks walk
Ascended from Horton in R via Colt Park, Park Fell & Simon Fell. Really hot but views a bit hazy.
good views to but chilly
Too windy to hang around on top, good views between the snow and sleet
Photo: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/129637
A couple of inches of snow on top, but very clear and bright today. Fantastic views of Pen-y-Ghent and Whernside with a similar dusting of snow.
Highest winds I've ever experienced - a nearby dog got picked up and thrown a few yards (by the wind!!). Was nearly crawling over the plateau being sandblasted by hailstone and rain. Once the rain had stopped (but not the wind) we had the clearest conditions I've seen in years. Amazing experience now that I'm back.
Better views than previous visit but quite windy. Surfaced paths now provide a much easier ascent; mixed feelings about that.
Cloudy on the top after a great start to the day. Much the same as the last time we were here.
Strong wind and visibility not too good - a great place though! I couldn't get really close to the pillar as everybody seemd to be queuing up to have pictures taken next to it!
Dissapointed to have missed fellow trigger Stonestreaker by just a day. A smashing evening with great views. The actual peak is just a little to the west.
back again- must be getting on for 20 times up here now
Very misty!
First climbed this in 1968 as a 13 year old on a weeks adventure break from Foxwood School, Leeds. The party came up from Horton got lost in the fog and the teacher was shi##ing himself until we stumbled upon the trig more by accident than management. 30 odd years later I revisted in somewhat better conditions. Looks great from a distance but very eroded & very popular. Been up loads of times, and from every direction imaginable and in all weather conditions - of late invariabley doing the my annual Three Peaker - and this was the occasion of my 2005 effort. Missed 2007 but did the 3 peaker on 23/05/2008 (7th time now)and surprisingly the top was the least busiest Ive ever seen it - Friday before the Bank Holiday. Yet another visit on 30/05/2009 this time from Clapham via Newby and across Simon/Park Fell to Ribblehead - as busy as a city centre at the top, hardly a soul on the rest of the route.No cars, train & on foot.
Windy!!!
Last of the 3 Peaks, just got up in the middle of a massive hailstorm, had been lovely weather all day, so had my shorts on, boy did that sting. Nice trig but didn't hang about to much because of the wind. Busy up here (as usual)
Nice walk from Clapham. Windy summit.
long walk from Clapham
great views but very cold , came up through crina bottom
Up the staircase from the Hill Inn; top deserted. Concrete plug. Wet and windy - no view.
Walked up from Clapham via Trow Gill and Gaping Gill. Low cloud on summit. My second of the Yorkshire Three Peaks.
This would have scored more highly if it had not been for the low cloud and high winds that forced us to cower in the lee of the shelter. It was well worth the walk though, and I can imagine in good weather it would be superb.
Fantastic trig point, very satisfying bag. Came in the mist last christmas and couldn't find it, nearly passed out with the heat this time!
The trouble is that it's too popular - no room in the downwind side of the windshelter.
Very good mountain with nana and grandad
umpteen +1 met a couple of SOTA guys on top
Last of todays 3 peaks
Did this as part of the 3 Peaks. This was the third and final one! Fortunately the low cloud we experienced on the top of Little Whernside had cleared. Just a few miles back to the car!
under cloud this morning
DalesRail train to Horton-in-Ribblesdale and then the usual route via Sulber Nick. Return via Park Fell and Alum Pot. One of many visits.
Bagged whilst caching in the area with Leoness!
Clear day, superb views
always a great climb
Went up from Clapham and through nature trail, onto Trow Gill and by Gaping Gill (don't stand too close to the edge).
umpteen ascents - great mountain
Was very foggy, Had no idea where I was. Was on the top somewhere
Quite a day. My 60th birthday and England won the Rugby World Cup!A fairly hard climb but well wotrh it.
Yorkshire. On Three Peaks Walk.
Another stone pillar in very good order-smashing views spoiled by haze.Very hot day.
A fine stone built pillar on this most popular of summits. Visited several times, first 10/7/78 on a Pennine Way rest day - well my companions were trashed and dropped out the next day.
Retrospective log.
RW & RH. Date TBC
Visited this Trig on a grey day.
rain and more rain glad of a change of clothes and a short ascent from the west over simon fell
Final hill on 3 Peaks round. Too hot! Had a welcome cider after coming off Whernside before climbing this one.
A straightforward single peak walk from the village of Ingleton and visiting the "Norber erratics" on the way back. Re-visited on 17.06.00 when Simon Fell was also visited as part of my "Nuttall" collection.
Built from local stone. Excellent trig.
Visited whilst on a circular walk from Ingleton
Visited to record FB number. The pillar was completed 30th August 1949 costing £82.12s.0d. In 1950 this marker was computed for triangulation as secondary station SD96/11 in the Skipton block. Flush bracket S5619 was levelled for height also in 1950. This trig point was last maintained by the OS in June 1976. Pillar built with local stone.
One of my favourites, been up every route on this lump, this visit was "doing" the Three Peaks with my Son (17 years) (Don't know the time, it's old log).
Climbed from Park Fell when top of Ingleborough was clearly visible. Rustic pillar in cloud when summit reached.
With Marion.
Early morning run up from cottage owned by Lancaster University. First of three visits.
Date of first ascent is a guess based on the fact I'd Climbed pen-y-Ghent in Feb 78. I then started walking in the dales with my poarents, so I'm guessing at Summer/Autumn of 78 when we went up Ingleborough. Been up at least once since, probably about 1994-5. We'd walked up to gaping Ghyll on August Bank Holiday and booked our place to be winched down the pot. As we had a 2hr+ wait, we went up and down Ingleborough to occupy some of the waiting time.
First of three visits, while doing the 'Three Peaks'.
I enter this visit exactly 45 years ago to the day after running the Three Peaks Race in 1963. No views - thick mist |
