It's only a scramble if you want to go out to the second spire - the highest and points one is just a walk.

Adam, we followed the cairned route from Tent Tarn some of the way.
And John, the plateau is airy - it's mainly open so you can see a long way most of the time, then on the edge of the plateau you have these amazing views down into the valleys and across to the iconic OT mountains. It would be a good place to get people just starting out hooked on walking - however with no real tracks and high altitude it's still a place to be treated with caution in case of bad weather. I think it would be pretty hard to work out where you were in the mist up there.

Isnt that a part of being a good navigator?? NOT walking in a straight line??
