I have walked it four times but it<br />has always been a masochistic tour de force. The last time I finished at 8.00 pm and could find nowhere to buy a celebratory bottle of wine on the way home until I had a moment of epiphany with the recollection of Asda 24 hours in Kendal. I think I got home after 10.00 but still had my wine. Doing the massive Ennerdale is made more problematic by the remoteness of the starting point - one has to set off very early from home, or as I did on one occasion drive up the night before and camp or sleep in the car. Your idea is much more sensible, and worth the effort of carrying the extra weight.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-27980320922098609892011-03-25T10:53:27.445+00:002011-03-25T10:53:27.445+00:00A nice circuit Conrad.

And I agree with you re the Ennerdale Circuit, but I prefer to do that over two days from Ennerdale, camping near Blackbeck Tarn, with those great views down to Buttermere and Crummock Water.<br />Glad you recovered your wallet!Phreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.com
