Striding edge is easy in dry weather. The exposure isn't all that bad, and most of it can be walked over relatively easy at the crest. Even passed a young couple with their newborn baby in tow at one point. Talk about teaching them young.

Well done, great post, and the link is really informative. Planning to ride the route this year myself, and intrigued by your choice to ride Glasgow-Inverness!?!? No one else seems to do it that way, so other than the wind direction, where there any other reasons behind this decision? Also, your choice of gravel bike is interesting. You stated that a mountain bike would be overkill, but surely with such wide tires on your bike, wasn't that just the same as a mountain bike!?!? No criticism here, just curiosity, as like I said, I'm planning to do the ride myself and haven't decided on a bike yet..haha! So obviously, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks buddy!😊👍

How long does it take if taking it at a slow and careful pace?

It’s not called a lock, it’s called a loch. You need to sound like you’re clearing your throat at the end.

Summed up bikepacking ! Its awesome like you say. Easy to enjoy the route with you because its obviously interesting with lots of route decisions. Thanks for sharing

Nice vid and web page, thanks for posting 👍

Nice one Will. I have been hearing reports that more and more bothies are either closing or just being randomly locked up due to vandals trashing them. Shame that people can’t respect these places anymore 😡

Not to be taken lightly guys; need a clear dry day and take it with care. Good video though, thanks 🙏

Made it today with our seven year old son. If the weather ist fine, you're well prepared and your into scrambling, go for it! Thanks for the entertaining video!

I've taken my 10 yr old son this route on a few occasions

It's not even bad, it's fun if you run it

@borderraiders I really like the green scenery and the cold air, I like the green scenery, in Indonesia, including connoisseurs of sunrise from a height, including from the mountains, greetings from Indonesia sir......🤝🤝🇲🇨🇲🇨

I think he was brilliant. One life per person and then we die. I'm coming up for 68 years old and I fired all my canons at once. I've had a wonderful life. ❤

How stupid are some parents? If the child had fallen and been injured, or worse, the parents decision to take the child to that location would have been exposed to very close scrutiny indeed.

Great filming Will, congratulations and thanks from me! I really liked the video and that's why I'm subscribing to your channel right now.

We did this in near 10m visibility. Not advisable. We stayed on the very top for obvious reasons. I do not remember climbing down and then up that section you did near the foot off the summit. We did drop down the “chimney”, this doesn’t look like that section. We couldn’t plan ahead due to low cloud so followed some that had done it before luckily for us. I fear some of these lower paths are dangerous. The “chimney” is a straight down chute to the left. Nonetheless good effort.

Not a good idea. The thing with kids is they stumble about and lose their footing now and then, and do careless things. They're only kids after all. I don't think it's wise to encourage kids to go up there, even if one's own kids climb like pros.

Brilliant. God Bless him. 👍

Well done.

Nice.

Love it 👍

Thirty years ago I took my son, Andy and two of his friends for a trip to Snowdon. We decided on a trip up Crib Goch as forecast was good. They were ten years old and enjoyed it as much as Harry seems to. Passed many adults who were gripped or just very unconfident .The boys were sensible and respectful of the hill hence a great trip. Then back to Willy's barn for hit chocolate and cake. Great birthday day out.

It is so busy 🤨

Not clever

Great skill ! It's the rock itself I worry

Incredible 👍

My advice is to stick to the ridge and avoid the paths.

Honestly, if you are afraid of striding edge, don't walk in high fells.

Oh come on, striding edge? give it a go and enjoy|| don't let these health and safety brigade put you off.

Having tackled Striding Edge my advice is take it slow and easy and stick to the crest. Just make sure you have a good pair of boots and are prepared for wind and rain arising from nowhere.

Not done Striding Edge but done Halls Fell off Blencathra a few times. Best wishes to you.

Thank you for sharing...this has made me feel a lot more confident about tackling striding edge!

Superb video. Best one of your trip so far. Could do with a nasal trim though 😉

Great video Will. Nice length and showed it as it is.

Um you tied it very wrong, you did the slip part the wrong way.

Fab memories of a wonderful trip!

Hi, what is this called exactly if I want to buy it? Is it simply terra nova quasar?

does it have a mozzy door to? each end?

It was a freaking nightmare to put up. Fortunately conditions were benign but if I had been up on Dartmoor in a rush/inclement weather I had have ended up launching it into a valley.

One of the pole sleeves snagged and ripped on ours as I pushed the pole through. Pretty disappointed in that to be honest. The big porch is brilliant though. Never had condensation issues

av got couple ov bergy tents. my opinion cannot get better for ur money

I’ve had Super Quasars for over 15 years and consider them to be the best 2 man tents on the market. They’re bomb-proof and spacious. The end designs mean feet will never touch the outer fabric and cause a wet sleeping bag. The pockets inside are fantastic for stowing gear, and one porch can provide storage for motorcycle boot, wet over-suits and helmets. Being a true geodesic it’s very stable and very quiet. It’s a bit heavy for one person backpacking on a long trek, but for short treks, or sharing the weight it is a great shelter. Leaving the top of the door open for ventilation has caught me out a few times with vertical dropping rain and opening from the bottom and holding with a couple of short guys works. Cooking is possible in the porch with care. It’s not seen often but with one zip undone, the porch fabric can be opened as a windbreak. Great tent, thanks for sharing.

been looking at this tent looks good some tents say 3 man tent but i would say 3 people could sleep in this tent easy tons of space at the front porch area atb stuart

Amazed at the extent of the damage at ABC - I was there in October 2017 and clearly was very lucky as we encountered nothing like this. Great video! Chris

Have you used it, thinking about getting one

Looks pretty good for the price to be honest! Thanks for the vid.
