Ascents

Ill Crag may be climbed en route to Scafell Pike, via a path from Esk Hause, but it is commonly passed by without going to the actual summit, which is rocky making progress slow. Ill Crag's summit is a few hundred metres to the south of the path from Esk Hause to Scafell Pike.

gollark: Those are computationally hard problems, but I would be really surprised if there wasn't *some* fast heuristic way to do them.
gollark: Except that people are somewhat inconsistent about how much inconvenience/time/whatever is worth how much money.

gollark: People are very happy to ignore some amount of extra less tangible/obvious problems for lower costs in a lot of situations.
