Pleasant Climb
Helvellyn的点评
点评：Decided to take advantage of the rarely seen sunny weather to climb a few mountains. We live in Newcastle, we didn’t want to compete with the warm weather in the afternoon so we set off just after 7 am and parked at Withburn car just after 9am. We paid for 4 hours but in hindsight we should have added an hour or two as a buffer. Our parking expired 30 minutes before return, we were lucky not to get a ticket but the rush back was not a pleasant experience.
We found the climb from Withburn steady but still taxing. I am not a seasoned climber but I was still able to get by making use of a few rests. The temperature at the start was 16 degrees which was perfect.
At the top, we met people who had gone via Stryden edge and they said it was a bit more scrambly. The views at the top were breathtaking. We had lunch here but didn’t stay long because it was windy and cold.
We did not go back the same way, instead we took the path on the right of the original climbing path which was via Lower man. For some reason this was steeper than the path we chose and I think if we had come up this way, we wound have found it harder.
There is no requirement to be super fit to climb this mountain, there were people of all ages climbing and taking their time, however there was the odd Fell runner to make you feel super unfit. I would however recommend a level of fitness with the ability to scramble up rocks or brace yourself when on a downward momentum, I found it easier to use walking sticks. I would recommend loads of liquids however, there is no shelter so women would have nowhere to take a pickle.

翻译：决定利用难得一见的晴天爬几座山。我们住在纽卡斯尔，不想与下午的温暖天气竞争，所以我们早上 7 点刚过就出发了，9 点刚过就停在了 Withburn 停车场。我们付了 4 个小时的车费，但事后看来，我们应该多花一两个小时作为缓冲。我们的停车时间在返回前 30 分钟到期，我们很幸运没有收到罚单，但回程的匆忙并不是一次愉快的经历。
我们发现从 Withburn 出发的攀登很平稳，但仍然很费力。我不是一个经验丰富的登山者，但我还是能够通过几次休息来完成。开始时的温度是 16 度，非常完美。
在山顶，我们遇到了从 Stryden edge 出发的人，他们说那里有点难爬。山顶的景色令人叹为观止。我们在这里吃了午饭，但没有待太久，因为那里风很大，很冷。
我们没有原路返回，而是选择了原始登山路径右侧的路径，即 Lower man。不知为何，这条路径比我们选择的路径更陡峭，我想如果我们从这条路径上来，我们可能会发现更难。
爬这座山不需要身体非常健康，这里有各种年龄段的人在爬山，他们慢慢地爬，但是偶尔会有 Fell 跑步者让你感觉身体非常虚弱。不过，我建议身体健康的人能够爬上岩石或在下行时支撑自己，我发现使用手杖更容易。我建议多喝水，但是，这里没有遮蔽处，所以女性没有地方可以喝泡菜。
