Keasden road heads down Crutchenber Fell Despite rain overngight and an unpromising sky in the morning, the weather is clearing up enough for a good day out in Gisburn Forest. The Keasden road crosses the watershed at Bowland Knotts and heads south for the forest and Stocks reservoir en route for Slaidburn. This used to be a very quiet road when last I passed this way (probably thirty years ago) but now carries a lot of people to the extensive carparks, paths and bike trails provided by the forestry and water companies.

The northern marches of Gisburn Forest The most recently planted part of Gisburn Forest is also the most northerly and forms an isolated outpost not visited by the main mountain bike trails. The Keasden road descends to it over Crutchenber Fell, passing through it to reach the more mature and popular sections around Stocks reservoir.

Higher Clough On the west side of the Keasden road, land rises to Green Pike above Higher Clough (the farmhouse in the sun). The moor on the far horizon is CROW Access Land, but most of what is visible in this view has no public access.
