Another nice video, thanks for sharing. On our leg from Ennerdale, 34 years ago, we started in sunshine, encountered a downpour just before Angler’s Crag and by the time we reached the decision point at High Gillerthwaite the sun was out again. We decided to take the high road and started the climb up to Red Pike. Half way up we endured a heavy hailstorm and had to sit it out for about 20 minutes. If we had followed your route my mate may not have fallen and perhaps we may have eventually reached Robin Hood's Bay. When we decended from Seat to Scarth Gap we looked up at Hay Stacks and decided that the climb might be too much for my friend’s leg and decided to continue past Black Sail Hut. Little did we realise that the climb up Loft Beck was probably worse. All the best, Peter.
Joe, In contrast to you I find this drizzly, misty type of weather invigorating, atmospheric, and a delightful heightening of the wonderful sense of isolation. I probably had more days with weather like this on the C2C than not. Other than my diversion around the Northern side of Ennerdale Water (on the advice of my overnight host the night prior), your footage could have been of the route taken on the day I walked it (although I started my day 2 near Nannycatch Valley and ended at Honister). As my day 3 was from Honister to PatterdaleI'm looking forward to seeing how you fare over your next two parts. Ryk.

Thank you Joe.
Very much enjoying this detailed look at this wonderful path.
Looking forward to the next videos!

Enjoyed the shot of Pillar Rock looming above in the mist... Ennerdale to Borrowdale is one of the best ways to enter the Lake District.
Brilliant video as always Joe - looking forward to the rest of the series 👍
@@Gooner-1971 thank you!
Really enjoyed the first 2 parts. What navigation did you use please? Pete
I used Memory Map on my phone for GPS and of course the book for general direction
Hi Joe - great video! Where is the location at 0:04? Thanks!
