Tried a bit of a non stopper along the Cumbria SWay over bank holiday weekend (last W/E)
Didn't go to plan which was no surprise, too much sun and tired legs from the start. I did however manage the first 30 miles from Carlisle to Keswick in 9.5 hours. I can report that at the moment the ground was very dry apart from some areas near High Pike and actually quite hard on the feet. I was impressed with the new Bell Bridge. Before caldbeck or after there if coming the other way, the route is closed due to forestry work. No work taking place as I passed through so ignored it. It is in the area of the famous continuing land slip. I would advise anyone to do their best to ignore the closure as I did as the work being carried out is on the other side of the alongside fence in the forest.
