Grasmoor
Grasmoor is a mountain in the north-western part of the Lake District, northern England. It is the highest peak in a group of hills between the villages of Lorton, Braithwaite and Buttermere, and overlooks Crummock Water. Grasmoor is distinguished by its steep western flank, dropping dramatically to Crummock Water. This face is however not suitable for rock climbers as there is little clean rock, although Alfred Wainwright describes a challenging route up the face in his ''Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells''.〔Alfred Wainwright: ''A Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells, Book 6, The North Western Fells'': Westmorland Gazette (1964): ISBN 0-7112-2459-5〕 To the east the fell is linked to others by Crag Hill and Coledale Hause. Grasmoor is also home to the most extensive scree slopes in the North Western Fells. ==Name== Grasmoor takes its name from the Old Norse element ''grise'', meaning wild boar. This element appears in other Lake District place names, including Grisedale Pike and Grizedale Forest.〔
