  • Nina & Ken Do Wainwright's Coast-To-Coast Walk, July 1977
    Nina & Ken do Wainwright’s Coast-to-Coast Walk, July 1977 (as recalled in 2020) Setting the Scene Wainwright’s C2C route from St Bees on the west coast to Robin Hood’s Bay on the east coast was only 4 year’s old. We met very few going our way. Our route was similar to the published route except that we chose a high-level route in the western Lake District. We had “state-of-the-wallet” gear. The rucksacks with their external aluminium-frames did not even have a waist belt. We had Black’s “Tromso” down sleeping bags – our luxury item that cost £35 each. The tent was a Mariott Packlite ridge tent. It was flimsy, not completely watertight but was not fortunately tested by the weather. Our boots may have been by Hawkins. We cooked on a heavy Camping Gaz stove. Never heard of walking poles.The photos were taken on 35mm film. Early July 1977 was dry and very hot at times. We may have had some cloud and a few drops of rain in the second week. Day 1: St Bees to Ennerdale Bridge An overnight at St Bees campsite was followed by the first of many bright summer days. At the camp site there three young (Yorkshire?)men who were also starting on the C2C. We said goodbye to the coast early on at St, Bees Head and wandered through the coastal plain via such places as Cleator Moor to enter the Lake District at Ennerdale Bridge. A farm campsite with free range fowl was our stop for the night.
