    Great one to tick off paul i came off Sheffield pike on this one and i thought heron pike was fantastic shame it wasnt a wainwright as i thought this was the best one on the route and that tree yeah i walked past it and its massive like 😂bloody hard route off this way i dont no if you found that but we did coming down great show around mate .....BUTCHY

    • @capturinglakeland
      @capturinglakeland 16 днів тому

      Hi Mate, we’ve been up to Sheffield pike and then onto Glenridding Dodd a few times and taken in Heron Pike, which is a Birkett and has probably the better views of the three, like you suggest. The route can be a little, well, dodgy in wet conditions

  • @Butchyboysadventures
    @Butchyboysadventures 16 днів тому

    Great show around these 8 wainwright's paul looks a fantastic hike around one ive got to do so nice one for showing it marra cheers ....BUTCHY

    • @capturinglakeland
      @capturinglakeland 16 днів тому

      Thanks mate, if you do the complete round it’s probably better to do these when there’s more daylight and be careful coming down off Low Pike as there’s one tricky bit, nothing dodgy but you’ll need come down a small rock channel.

    • @Butchyboysadventures
      @Butchyboysadventures 16 днів тому

    Wow that reminded me of a great day, that really wore Bert and myself out to the point of exhaustion , he still keeps saying to me 'There better not be anymore up's' immortal words he said as we dropped from the last fell on that ridge. Dave of course just took it in his stride as you guys clearly did. Of course I still lie to Bert still, there are always more up's 😂. Really great video that makes me want to get back out in the Howgills, which I enjoyed immensely. Look forward to the future series.

    • @capturinglakeland
      @capturinglakeland 21 день тому

      Thanks Graham, we enjoyed the walk but split the ridge into two walks unlike you guys who somehow managed to complete the whole ridge in one mega walk. We were glad we did as not only was it dark when we finished the first part of the ridge walk but on the second part of the ridge walk we enjoyed an incredible inversion. Hopefully I’ll be posting regularly (every Sunday) on UA-cam and include all the Howgill walks

    I was so frustrated for you. If you'd have carried on climbing over that gate on the road you'd have found a sign free way to the top, albeit a steep ascent initially. We did it yesterday and didn't see any farmers or other obstacles. Have s look at Hiking Vikings route.

    • @capturinglakeland
      @capturinglakeland 26 днів тому

      It was a long day as on the way back to the campsite we were behind a car that had had to swerve to avoid a collision with a motorhome and had subsequently turned over in the road. No one was seriously injured but we were stuck there until the emergency services had attended and made the road safe to continue.
