Description

The crossing was over and the time was seven in the evening but the clock had crept round to ten before v/e were washed and sat down to a meal at Eskdale Green where we were booked in for the night. The six members of our party looked back on the day with rather mixed feelings. I was not at that time a member of the RSF and think that Black Sailwas a good ’breaking in’ to rough-stuff for me. Time taken on a fairly rough day from Ennerdale to Wastwater was four to four-and-a-half hours.
