| Helm Crag is a small rocky mountain north west of Grasmere. A rock formation on the summit has lead to its alternative name; The Lion and the Lamb. The summit is an awesome place, with the true summit standing 25ft above the path and involving a rocky scramble to reach the top. This is the only fell that Wainwright never actually reached the very top of. | ||
