Nethermost Pike

Nethermost Pike is a fell in Cumbria, England, and a part of the Lake District. At it is the second highest Wainwright in the Helvellyn range, the highest of which is Helvellyn itself. It is located close to the southern end of the ridge, with Helvellyn to the north, and High Crag and Dollywaggon Pike to the south. Nethermost Pike, along with many of the Eastern Fells, lies between Thirlmere in the west and the Ullswater catchment in the east. The closest villages are Glenridding and Patterdale on the shores of Ullswater, over away.
Like most fells in the Helvellyn range, Nethermost Pike has grassy western slopes and rocky outcrops on the eastern side. Geologically, Nethermost Pike belongs to the Borrowdale Volcanic Group. Lead was once mined on its eastern slopes, resulting in open workings and underground mines. The eastern slopes are protected as part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest because of the Pike's geological and biological features, which include some of England's best arctic-alpine and tall-herb vegetation.
==Classification==
Mountains are often classified according to their heights. At 891 m (2,922 ft) Nethermost Pike is listed as a Nuttall, which requires an elevation of 610 m (2,000 ft). However with a prominence of it is not counted as a Hewitt or Marilyn which require prominences of and respectively. Nethermost Pike is also counted as a Wainwright because it was given a chapter in Alfred Wainwright's ''Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells''. It is the second highest of the Eastern Fells, and the ninth highest of all the Wainwrights. South of Nethermost Pike is High Crag , which is separated from Nethermost Pike by a very limited depression. Most guidebooks follow Alfred Wainwright in considering High Crag to be a part of Nethermost Pike. This convention is not universally followed however, with author Bill Birkett preferring to differentiate between the two fells.
