Nethermost Pike

Approached from the west its summit is an unassuming small cairn sitting on a flat top, continue east and you would fall down impressive cliffs into Nethermost Cove and Grisedale. Viewed from Grisedale, Nethermost Pike earns its name, Pike means 'peaked mountain'. It is the second highest peak on the Helvellyn ridge.
