Base Brown
|
| "being itself of striking appearance, gaunt, steep-sided, a pyramid of tumbled boulders and scree, a desert abandoned to nature." |
|
A Wainwright

The summit of Base Brown is the culmination of the north eastern spur of Green Gable and part nof a popular route from Seathwaite, Borrowdale Climbing via Sty Head to Great Gable and then descending over Green Gable and Base Brown, but most do not climb the short distance to the summit, instead they follow the path descending into Gillercombe at the saddle before the summit is reached.
A pleasant summit with some good views over the Borrowdale Valley, a good scent is to climb alongside Sour Milk Gill, the magnificent series of waterfalls above Seathwaite, and from the top of the fells climbing the northernmost shoulder of Base Brown where a feint path winds around the crags and outcrops to the summit.
