Sergeant's Crag

Overview
Height: 1,873 Feet - 571 Metres
Grid Ref: NY 274 114
Area: Central
Ordnance Survey: OL4
Wainwright Guidebook: Three

The main crag, over looking the valley, is a sheer wall of rock split by two gullies of which the more prominent is, or was before fashions resort of climbers. The Langstrath slopes are very steep everywhere and a tumble of fallen blocks obstructs easy passage of the popular path to Stake Pass along the base - one huge boulder in particular, Blea Rock, crowning a little rise, is conspicuous landmark here.
