well done, I did the reverse way in 4 days a couple of weeks ago too. Had to use the GPS route tracker on my watch as the signage going north to south is appalling.
@FellHikerКүн бұрын
Thanks, and congrats also. Yes, I can imagine the signage is worse going that way. The route was devised in the 70's and it feels like most of the signs haven't been updated since.

Well done on finishing the Cumbria Way, 👏 petty it was raining at the end.🙄 I should have mentioned the path up to lingy hut when we meet in the valley, it looked worse than I remembered when I went up that way 4 years ago, at least the diversion didn’t cost you much time and a your brave man for going over the land slide 😮 I’ve subbed to your channel nice to of briefly met. Ps the tripod I had is called UURIG the other one but exact same that I couldn’t remember the name of is ULANZI. ATB Karl 👍

Nice to watch and bring back memories of our Cumbrian way journey. We had OS APP with map in Hebrides back in April (doing the Hebridean way) , App just randomly logged me out and couldn't log back in because of no internet connection, who ever though that was a good idea at OS? I've swapped back to my Garmin, will never trust that App again, it could have really messed things up through Navigation, but as most, have backups on watch, paper map 1:200000 (not ideal) and Garmin 700i.

Amazing that a long distance path through one of the most popular hiking areas in England is so poorly sign-posted. I did the Coast to Coast many years ago and some of the signage was less than great - but I am sure it was improved by now due to its popularity. Great video - hope you enjoyed the walk.

@FellHiker The weather's been pretty poor so far this year. It should start improving. There's some cool places this way. Sometimes I go out and do two trips in a day, making 2 seperate vids. Quite a few interesting things on the mountains. I've been to 3 plane sites. Really sad to see but powerful. They have interesting stories. I'm looking forward to doing more in England soon. I have a few here to do first but probably June I should be there. So many to see.😁👋

Thanks Ian, that's good to know about the Youth Hostel - maybe next time 🙂 I think we followed a route that was on our OS map app rather than the one in guide book by Peter Wilson, which I'm just looking at now and it does seem to describe a higher route on other side of that main road from the Storey Arm. But anyway we enjoyed the trip and glad you liked the video. Cheers!
