In this episode, I continue my journey with Rose on day six along the Wainwright Coast to Coast trail, walking from Kirkby Stephen to Keld. We share our experiences navigating unpredictable weather, challenging terrain, and limited resupply options. Highlights include climbing to the mysterious Nine Standards, camping in Keld, and meeting fellow hikers who offer tips on gear, apps, and accommodation.

We reflect on the importance of planning, packing light, and staying flexible. Despite some tough moments, the camaraderie, beautiful landscapes, and small comforts—like a hot shower or a dry bed—make every step worthwhile. This episode offers practical advice and honest insights for anyone considering the trail.
