Ahh Ennerdale, my favourite Lakeland valley since spending holidays on a farm there and many happy hours climbing both sides of the valley. That probably has to rate as my personal favourite section, Wasdale, Ennerdale & Buttermere all in one run, it truly doesn’t get much better than that 😊👍
Loving the videos John, thank you! Finding them very helpful, remembering the routes I’ve already recced and seeing the ones I haven’t. Great music, laughing and smiling while watching! The filthy cake looked awesome! Keep on doing dude 💪
Thanks John nother good un. Great to see the return of the coffee promo! Looking forward to the Pillar ascent... Loving the mental strength to turn around each time you do these legs then back again. Keep up the good work!
I don't just like these videos, I bloody love them 😁 This leg has some contrast in the going, some rough stuff over the passes and then good, runnable trails round Buttermere. Like you, I had built these up in my head, but once you get in your rhythm, it's actually ok. I remember an incredibly dark night over Black Sail pass and a sea of headtorches stretched ahead and behind, pure magic. Another brilliant video, thank you 😊
These are great! I’m not going to get to the lakes much for recces so these are proving really useful and definitely given me an idea which sections I want to recce and where best to park!
Love it mate. Love that I’m not the only one who makes old man noises when riding from a squatting position 😂 looking forward to seeing that unique ascent up Pillar. The quality of your videos while on the move is just fantastic
Excellent, quality production again. Fair play for running the passes, I certainly power walked them when I did the Lakeland 4 Passes in 2021. The Shamrock traverse is a great route, I highly recommend it. Thanks again.
Great one John. I’ve always loved Buttermere and Ennerdale since I first went there at 5, so I’ve been waiting with anticipation for the vid since the cheeky UA-cam short last week. Also I think that ascending the ‘High Level Route’ and ‘Shamrock Traverse’ up the face of Pillar would make a great video as you can get extremely close to Pillar Rock while still staying relatively safe (Wainwright thought it was “the finest way up the mountain”).

I’m a total coffee addict plus Podda & Wren are friends so always happy to do a collaboration plus free coffee! Can’t argue with that! ☺️
Happy you’re enjoying the vids 🤘🏻🙂

That’s great to hear Katie I’m glad you’re liking them. Leg 7 Blencathra > Dockray is being edited atm, should be uploaded in the next day or so :)

Cheers mate I appreciate that. Yup.. creaky old knees they get us eventually! 😂
Have entery for 2024 100 ll , only just found your channel so will be following now and studying the route , ready for recce this year
Nice one Mark glad you’re enjoying the vids. I’ll probably do vids on the second half of the route later in the year 👌🏻

Nice one mate glad you enjoyed it, yeah I’m looking forward to the Shamrock traverse when the weather is good 👌🏻🙂

Yup that’s it Shamrock Traverse.. just waiting for a good day which coincides with a day off work then I’ll be heading up there 🤘🏻
Thank you John good video again and great scenery
Cheers mate glad you liked it, I loved this section.
Really nice section of the route, well done.
It is isn't it? I loved running this part, glad you liked it.
PS was round the route up Pillar to which you refer earlier in the year. Wetter than an Otters pocket but always fantastic 😉
I thought you might have, it being your neck of the woods 😉 Pillar is an awesome mountain.
