      Yeah Steven, I had the kit but there was no sunset or sunrise likely. Much higher winds than forecast. As I say I’d love to pitch on Greyrigg pike, awesome pitch that. Wish I’d taken my hooped bivi that would have pitched in the wind easily. In 5 mins. Still great to be outdoors. I watch all your stuff as you know. Atb

    Thank you for posting. Enjoyed this video. I am a pensioner and did my last Munro in 1996 and have walked extensively in the Pennines, Lakes and Ireland. However, I have never been to the Howgills. The range seems to be unique, not quite the Pennines, neither quite like the Lakes,. They are the ham sandwiched between them.

    • @unclepeteswildadventures
      @unclepeteswildadventures 18 днів тому

      The Howgills are fantastic and mostly uncrowded. Generally there are benign but do have some ‘teeth’ in places. Such as Black force and Cautley crags. My mum was born in Sedbergh and my dad grew up in Appleby, a bit further north. The Howgills are Silurian sedimentary rocks and most of the Lakes is igneous/volcanic hence the very different characteristics. Thanks for watching. Plenty of other videos for you to enjoy in and around the area. I do love the Westmorland dales and north Pennines especially. Atb

      @unclepeteswildadventures Місяць тому

      One day I’ll get into Black force. I find traversing with a big drop too scary. As you know in the Howgills there are some very steep convex slopes. You can see by the soil creep in this vid. There is a way in to the left of The Spout which is very steep and you have to avoid coming over the precipice at The Spout. Chris JB made it down. (Highly recommend his channel.) A red flag though is when people don’t manage to film it well, there’s usually a reason. It is very sketchy. Check out my Uldale force vid. Lovely to have you back.

    I have the Alpkit Kloke and use it inside my tent Munro bagging with my Aegis Max lightweight down bag I like the Kloke it means I can use the Aegis Max throughout the year. I am planning Bike touring Spain and Portugal so away from the coast campsites few and far between. A hooped bivvy is what I need and this looks perfect for meandering about Spain and Portugal not having to worry about finding a place to set up a tent.

    • @unclepeteswildadventures
      @unclepeteswildadventures Місяць тому

      After a few consecutive bivi camps I did a tent camp and felt claustrophobic in the tent. I love the fact that you can look out at the stars without getting out of your sleeping bag. You can find cheap Elans on eBay. Some people feel claustrophobic but I feel Nicky cosy. The zips snag on the weatherproof flange but it’s easy to sort with technique as I explain on my Wild boar elan video. Thanks for watching

    You didn't actually show how you got into the canyon where Uldale Force is? Did you drop down to the little waterfall in front of the main fall and somehow negotiate up the side of it? I did it many years ago (May 2008) and there wasn't much water in the river. I parked at Rawthey Bridge, and headed south on the path marked on the O.S. Maps then turned east across Bluecaster, and followed the path across the moor parallel with the right hand side of the river all the way to the little bridge, then continued up the river next to it on the same side. It did leave the river at one point and climbed up high above it then dropped down to the foot of the little fall below the main Uldale Force. Can't quite remember how I got above that little fall as it looks impossible with the steep sides but I did, i had all my walking gear on, rucksack, camera and tripod i think. I got a few pics of the main fall but it was into the light and there wasn't much water in. Coming back, I returned the same way but on the opposite side, i had to negotiate my way down below the smaller fall.....before i knew it i was in the water up to my neck! That water below the little fall was at least 6 foot deep. I didn't panic but swam to the side and pulled myself out. I walked down river, found a flat patch of grass, took my boots off and poured all the water out. Took my trousers off and reached into my rucksack for my waterproof leggings, they were the only thing i had on me that was dry. My camera and mobile phone were kaput and i still had to walk back to the car. It was windy and by the time i got back to the car i was dry. When i got home, everything went in the airing cupboard to dry but the camera and phone were destroyed. Still managed to pull the SD card from the camera and see all my pictures though! I have unfinished business there, but it gives me nightmares thinking about it! There was an episode of countryfile many years ago where Matt Baker was swimming in the pool below the main fall but it never showed you how he got there!

    • @unclepeteswildadventures
      @unclepeteswildadventures 2 місяці тому

      Yes mate it was deliberate that I didn’t show how I got in. I used some climbing equipment but I didn’t want to encourage inexperienced people to do the same. Also it’s a remote place and it would be nice to keep it that way. If you’re desperate enough you’ll find a way. Your story illustrates my reasoning.

    • @unclepeteswildadventures
      @unclepeteswildadventures 2 місяці тому

    • @unclepeteswildadventures
      @unclepeteswildadventures 2 місяці тому

      The hills are deceptive. They start with a gentle slope which increases and then plunges suddenly into the ravine. I’m sure only a few sheep are lost I think when their coats are full, they are more top heavy. I don’t get water from below those ravines or if I do I boil it. I’m determined to get into Black Force one day. Not for the faint of heart though. It’s great place to park where I mentioned. Atb. Looking forward to you next.

    👍👍👍 .. nice 😊. Wind .. Alcohol-based fuel flame is very sensitive to air movement and I agree with you, the burner needs to be shielded from wind .. they all do. The plastic-covered handle. Yes, keep it away from the flame .. Trangia advises one to do so. The Gel Fuel available here in Switzerland ('Sicherheitsbrennpaste' .. can be sourced at any mini / supermarket) does burn very clean and leaves almost no residue on the pot bottom. Tip. I would include a piece of heat-resistant silicon / similar mat, cut to size, in the setup, to protect underlying 'heat-sensitive' surfaces. That way, it can be used almost anywhere, even indoors. I do .. the Swiss too. During Winter, indoor, tabletop Cheese Fondues using Alcohol Gel Burners are a Swiss 'National Sport' 😏. I have the Micro's bigger brother, the 'Mini'. I have added, inter alia, to the existing 800ml Trangia Bowl, a Quechua One Litre SS Pot and a 400ml Aluminium Bowl w folding handles from a 1970's 'Evernew Camping Bowl Set to the setup and a folding tripod fashioned from two pieces of an old bicycle spoke, to accommodate smaller diameter pots and cups. That way, I can up and downsize to suit the planned activity .. and everything stacks nicely into each other 😊. Used within their Design Intent, and taking note of their limitations, Alcohol-based Liquid and Gel Fuels are definitely an option and the Micro should give you many years of good service. Thanks for sharing .. take care ..
