A 7 mile loop walk and wild camp in the Far Western Fells of the Lake District. Crag Fell was my home for the night having conquered Lank Rigg and Whoap that day, before the final Wainwright of Grike the next day. This is a beautiful day walk if anyone would like to check it out, very peaceful over the Western side of the Lake District. Thanks for watching👍 Sean #hiking #mountains #adventure

Just over 8 mile loop climbing Englands highest mountain, Scafell Pike via Mickledore. With an amazing wild camp at Broadcrag Tarn at 2690ft, a hidden gem of a place to chill away from the busy main paths to Scafell Pike. Via Mickledore also recommended, a bit of a scramble but good fun and adventure. Enjoy and thanks for watching👍 Sean #camping #tent #love #like #wildcamping

A 7 mile circular route from Wythburn Church car park, climbing up to Nethermost Pike, the second highest Wainwright on the Helvellyn range at 2923ft. A cold and windy camp which I underestimated, but calmed through the night, and woke up in the morning to carry on climbing Dollywaggon Pike 2815ft. A nice route overall, Helvellyn not far away if you walk to complete that to. Thanks for watching...

A walk and camp of all weathers on Dartmoor, taking in Hound Tor and Dinger Tor. Approximately 14 mile walk from Belstone to Meldon and a wild camp at West Okement River. We had planned to camp at Black Tor but due to low cloud on High Willhays, we decided to drop down for some cover out of the weather as we’d been battered all day. #camping #like #love #tent #outdoors Thanks for watching👍 Sean

It’s not just me that needs about 10 takes with an intro then haha. You’re clocking up some serious mileage this year, belting video this mate enjoyed watching. Did you prefer this one to the Highland way? Atb mate 👍🏼
To be honest I needed about 29 takes but didn’t put them in🤦🏻♂️….tough one with the other, but think this one but the WHW was definitely a close second just because of the scenery after Bridge of Orchy👍
nice one mate, good vid, thanks for the upload. you did well there mate. Would have liked to have seen a gear list for the stuff you took with you
Maybe I will be haven’t got to that yet👍
Well done for completing the Coast to Coast! Nicely filmed. All the best.
Thanks👍
Thanks, mate, that’s a good honest video about the WHW. I am hoping to have a crack at it next April.
Really enjoyed watching along. Thanks for the incentive to get it done 😊
That looks amazing!!
It is, especially when you have it all to yourself👍
@@TheWoollybackwalker absolutely, I bet I need to get up early for that?!
Not really, you just have to choose a warm day when it’s not half term and a weekday. I’d go after midday as well, give the sun time to come up over the valleys and shine on it. So much nicer in the sunshine👌
Well done on your adventure , we’re not far from we live near the power station 🤣 We completed it in April and we loved every minute , defo shouldn’t be underestimated. . Subbed to follow more of your adventures 👍keep up the good work
Thanks and always nice to hear off the locals👍
Cracking video mate, watched a lot of WHW videos on UA-cam over past cpl years. Looking to do WHW next year , well I said that last year 🫣.
Thanks for watching. It’s definitely a walk you should do depending on what time of year you do it. After Bridge of Orchy the scenery is amazing👌
That’s an epic hike mate well done, fancy doing this one myself maybe end of summer or next year. Lots of useful information on where to stay and eat etc. nice one mate, ⛰️🏕️
Thanks for watching👍April/may or September possibly best months. Daylight hours plus less or no midgies. Best of luck if you do it. Scenery fantastic👍
Hi Sean. Just wanted to say a big thank you for this video with it's epic pitch! I went to camp on Fleetwith Pike a few days ago, there were quite a few already piched near the summit with the usual popular spots taken. Anyway, I dropped down from the summit in search of your spot and was thrilled to find it vacant. What a fantastic pitch it is with absolute stunning views. The weather was great and I was treated to a brilliant sunset. Has got to be up there with my best wild camps, thanks again 👍
Hi Sean it’s a pleasure. Glad you had what sounds like a perfect camp👍
Had my own WHW-Adventure last year. Had good memories with your vid. Thank you for sharing your WHW-Journey.
No problem. Thanks for watching👍
Well done. I did this in April but baled out Kingshouse. I am going back in September to finish what I started.
Tyndrum to Kinlochleven is probably the best part scenery wise. I hope it’s a nice day with no midgies. Good luck with the rest of the walk. Thanks for watching👍
Awesome mate. I'll find the sword for you 😊
Haha get your metal detector on it👍
Congratulations for completing that. A good watch. All the best
Thanks for watching👍
Well done Sean, brilliant 👏 weather seemed to be on your side too. Some amazing views 👌
Hi Ross, thanks. The weather isn’t always great if sunny, tbh I’d of preferred clouds at times. Especially the longer distance days. I’d of loved some rain🤣. Thanks for watching👍
Well done mate ! You mentioned Blackwater reservoir , back in 2007 me and Baz stayed in a bothy at Loch Chiarain and the next day headed to Kinlochleven via Blackwater , we crossed over the dam wall 👍 very remote , great video mate
Sounds like a good adventure👍it’s something I’ll have to look into. Seeing Corrour on the train on the way back, looks awesome, and the reservoir you went to looked amazing. Was great to meet you guys👍
Some slog that mate 🍺👍
It was, but there might be a longer one coming up. Thanks for watching👍
Well done buddy great achievement thanks for sharing great video keep up the great work 👍
Thanks pal👍
Great video, you really captured how fantastic the scenery is up there! I really want to do this now. 🤣
@RedCattEtsy thanks, the scenery is fantastic. I hope you are able to do it too👍
Great effort. Love the video lots of good information along the way. Hope you recover quickly. 😁👍
@barryjeffries2067 haha thanks mate, I could do with dipping my feet in one of those fish tank things, though it’d probably kill them🤣🤦🏻♂️
Thank you! Found it after watching your video, really worth the walk, beautiful place, stunning views!
Glad I could help👍
Great video and drone footage Sean, those views were epic!! Another route I've yet to do 👍
Thanks, is that including the wild swim in Buckstone Jump, is that on the list😉
I think we both know the answer to that 😂
It's been a long time since I did the Fairfield horseshoe, after watching your video will definitely do it again with a wild camp, like you, on Fairfield. Looks like a great pitch with fantastic views. Very enjoyable video there Sean, as a fairly new subscriber I'll definitely be having a watch of your previous videos 👍
Thanks, much appreciated. Honestly 360 views on top on a nice night were fantastic👌
Nice video and looks like you had great weather and an epic sunset and sunrise - love the mountain layers in the drone footage. I think it's called Cofa Pike, the peak between St Sunday's Cragg and Fairfield. Looks like you had a good pitch, I might have to try it out. Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks mate👍I’ll have to go back and investigate more. Honestly every view was fantastic
what do you use for handheld recording? I really like this perspective
Hi. I use a GoPro for all my recordings. Hope this helps
Another stunner pal 👌 never ventured over that side of the lakes, that needs to change 😂
Thanks pal. It’s a beautiful peaceful place the NW side of the Lake District. Most people will be attracted to Scafell’s. Ennerdale Water is so peaceful, and away from the hustle and bustle of busier peaks and trails👍
Top spot for a wild camp there mate, cracking views! 👍 Ennerdale is such a peaceful valley
Thanks pal, it was great to get away from the hustle and bustle of Keswick and Ambleside👍
Think I’d have had second thoughts once I heard those thunder claps!
🤣it crossed my mind. Thanks for watching👍
Camping there in 3 weeks. I’ve got the Abisko lite 2, do you reckon enough places to pitch a 2 person tent? Looked like it.
Yes, there was quite a lot of grassy parts on top, just depends what view you like. I like to be near an edge also. It’s quite rocky underneath though
Nice one. Cheers mate.
Nice video mate. Totally agree with you about that person pitching up way too early. Sadly not everyone abides by the wild camping etiquette which can give the rest of us a bad name! 🤨
Agreed mate. Thanks for watching👍let’s hope they’ll learn one day🙏
Great camp, definitely a place I want to visit soon, lovely video visuals, new subscriber here 😊
Thanks. Appreciated👍
Do you want a step to help get down off your high horse about the tent at Sprinkling Tarn?
I don’t need a step or a horse thanks. Just pee’s me off when people have tents up in the middle of the day, leave litter and have bbq’s in the countryside. If they want this then go on a campsite. Sets a bad example and encourages the people who give true wild campers a bad name. Thanks for watching though👍
Said in jest pal. Great video
Incredible scenery out there. A camping adventure to remember I would say ;)
Thanks for watching, they’re all adventures to remember👍
Stunning wild camp, visually mate, thats right up there 👌
Thanks pal, get yourself up the Lakes for a camp⛺️⛰️
Nice atmospheric video👍. It’s good when you get a fell all to yourself.
Thanks for watching. Sunday night camping is the way forward👍
Fantastic! I've never seen clear blue skies like this in the Lake District. Around what date were you here for this video?
Hey, thanks for watching. It was mid August. Luckily for me I was right place right time and it was a roasting hot day☀️
Thanks for sharing your adventure , the views are spectacular up there, and some beautiful drone shots.
Thanks for watching, it was a nice place to relax after a tough climb👍
Another crackin video m8. Awesome stuff. Got the Soulo and Abisko Lite 2 i use often but that Allak looks the business. Just need 2 find the wife's purse 😂
Great video again pal 👍, conditions looked spot on 👌
Thanks Ross, following you on Instagram, didn’t realise you were local👍
Neighbours to be fair, from warrington 👍
Looks a decent spot up there man 👌
Really cool man, my question: Did you have to ask permission to camp? I’m thinking of camping with my little daughter but need to know if it’s okay to do so without getting in trouble with land owners. Any response would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards
Hey, I don’t ask any permission but I try not to attract attention. Stick to wild camping rules respect the countryside. Google wild camping rules in England if that’s where you’re camping and enjoy it if you go. Thanks for watching👍
Which rucksack mate and what was its weight.?
Osprey Atmos 65. Not sure of the weight, just google it👍
Great weather to walk up to your camp.....beautiful area. 'Ull' east yorkshire.
Thanks for sharing. Now I must follow in your footsteps 👍
Enjoy👍
Don't know if anybody here has the Abisko 1 lite. It looks like it has been designed for 55cm (20") width mats. That's on both sides but it's wider in the center. Does anybody know if it would fit a 64cm (25") inflatable mat? definitely not if pushed to one of the sides but probably if positioned in the middle?
Quality video pal as always 👌
Thanks👍
Amazing 👌
Thanks👍
Great video Sean, what camera are you using and what drone, the footage is so clear 👍
Thanks Neil👍I used a dji mini for that, the have the best camera’s I think as they are 4k. Camera GoPro hero 10
Seen you on mountain rescue 😮 ya famous now lol 👌
🤣not quite, and for the wrong reasons🤦🏻♂️. If only I had 15 million subscribers, instead of 15 seconds of fame in the interview
@@TheWoollybackwalker your a lucky man mite been worse mate 👍
Oh I know, never doing that again
Just seen you on Lake District Rescue, I said omg its Woolyback Sean 😮
Hi, yes that was me, almost recovered now but never fully I don’t think from that experience. Mountain rescue do a great job👍
@@TheWoollybackwalker my girlfriend and I chatted to you once at bottom of Place Fell on way to Beda Fell, so we kept up with your vid blogs, I said WB hasnt uploaded for a long while, glad your making a full recovery, how did you do it??
I went with a company to do ghyll scrambling with family. I have a theory I’m not sure I can say on here. I had to have around 6 months of physio which meant no outdoors stuff. I’m hoping to try and make up for it this year and get more videos on, but weathers rubbish
Just seen you on the lake district mountain rescue programme How's your shoulder
Hi, that is me. Shame I couldn’t do a video on it. I had some physio for about 7 months. It’s ok now thanks for asking, but it’s not 100%. I now have a fear of jumping from heights and won’t be doing anything like that again. Although i paid a company for ghyll scrambling, you didn’t see that on tv
Glad to hear your on the mend. I enjoy your videos, hope it has not put you off to much
I’ll still be hiking and camping, Thanks for tuning in👍
Another belter pal 👌
Thanks pal👍
The time lapse worked well when taking down your tent, nice vid mate. 👍🏼 17:38
Yes thanks, I had to wait for the right moment
