Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Going past Black Sail hut is always a highlight on the L100. Always say must stay there; never have yet :(

Looks like it's the pass between Broughton Mills and Ulpha, with Stickle Pike behind you?

Have a good run at Duddon, NE!

Flanker - I booked Black Sail out for my 50th birthday in November a few years ago. The Friday night was magical as we stood outside watching the headtorches of my 14 guests coming in down the passes in all directions. The weather turned a little over the weekend and we spent most of the time drinking our way through our stash and playing board games. Storm Desmond swept in a day later...
