    My grandad was very fond of these places he knew very well in his youth and spent a lot of time until moving to Norfolk when he was around 50. He always talked fondly in conversation about them. He lived to 88 and went for a couple of walks with the dog every day up to his last year or so. Thanx for this video Pat be well bud:)

    Hello Patrick, have commented on your videos in the past but that's a good while ago now so you probably don't remember me. I'm one of those you refer to as not being able to get out much anymore. Unfortunately due to arthritis I can only manage short excursions and then only if it's one of my better periods. Your videos fetch back a real mixture of bitter sweet memories. I used to really love wild camping on Kinder and Bleaklow. Trouble is I still feel the same in my head. Reality kicks in if I try and put thoughts into practice. Still you've got to make the best of things. I find your stuff a real tonic sometimes when I'm feeling a bit low. Keep up the good work.

    Pat, you're spot on. I'm 72 and back in Thailand. The temperature has dropped to about 23 and it feels cold even though you'd think it was a heat wave back in Sheffield. Last summer, I spent a night on Kinder. My daughter and b/f carried the heavy stuff. They slept in a tent and I slept under a tarp propped up against some rocks, in a heavy bivvi. Snug as a bug.
    Windy all night but every moment was memorable and I dream about it. I'd love to do it again. But as you say, in the mean time I can watch your videos, which will never get old.
    Thanks Pat.

    Nice video Pat. Snedge aint what it used to be! I can remember venturing up onto Bleaklow back in the eighties and it used to drift so deep you could drop into the voids up to waist level if you wandered off the track. I can well understand you giving the Rambler and Nags Head a miss as their 4WD driver friendly tap prices are truly scandalous. The arctic hares really stand out on Bleaklow now due to reduced snow covering. One spring after the winter thaw i went up there and found the skeletons of a pair of them stood up like they were boxing! I would guess they either starved or froze to death in a blizzard and huddled together in their final moments. Going up here this weekend. It actually feels even colder these days as the snow is not as dry as it used to be and is wet to the touch. It used to be loose, dry and powdery back then to the point that you needed crampons to get traction on it. Global warming is definitely a real thing as the younger generation have nothing to compare it against.

      @@Voodoo_Ray I can remember some really good winters up there in the past. It was about the only time you could actually walk up on Black Hill back then without getting stained jet black in the deep peat bogs before they laid the erosion treatment down on the P.W. It always amazes me how low passenger airliners seem to be flying above there but them you have to remember how high above sea level it actually is. I sometimes visit the wreck of the B29 super fortess 'over exposed' up on Shelf Stones. This was a payroll flight on route between RAF Scampton and Burtonwood. It ploughed into the top in low cloudbase, poor visibility conditions. This was not uncommon prior to GPS navigation as aircraft flew in 2D plots back then on altimeter and compass bearing settings. You only had to get the calculation of a strong side wind wrong and you could easily drift into the hill tops if you could not see them in zero visibility. I liken this to the aeronautical equivalent of hitting a reef. This all stopped at a certain point in time with the advent of GPS navigation. Indeed this is my prefered method of crossing Bleaklow in thick mist these days as if you stray off the path you will end up walking in wide circles!

    Hi, I love your videos. I’m from Hong Kong, sweet and sour food are mostly served in our area in Guangdong. But I have to say I’ve never seen a meal like that before combing with sweet and sour sauce from Guangdong, pound beef, vacuum veg, and Udon the noodle from Japan. I’m gonna give it a try on my next camping trip. Thanks for an awesome new idea!

    Hi Patrick, great video - and photography - thank you - I first walked over Kinder 34 years ago aged 19 when I got it in my head I was going to do a solo PW walk - I gave up at day 5! (in mid summer). I've only been back twice since (and each time walked a bit further - but never in winter. It does definitely bring back memories, and perhaps I'll get back again one day to finish the walk!

    Your videos Patrick are one of the main reasons, I decided to get back into wild camping after 35 years (on Dartmoor at the time) now mainly Peak District). Now at 60, I am a little slower and it is more painful recovery after a Wild Camp, but oh so worth it. Thankyou for the inspiration!

    Hi Patrick, your video gave me a kick up the arse, and I went over to Edale in my old campervan on Friday afternoon. Managed to keep it down to just a couple of pints in the Nags head, so I could get up fairly early on Saturday. I walked along the southern edge of kinder scout - The snow had flurries up to a couple of feet deep in places, and the views were absolutely spectacular - perfectly clear skies, plenty of sun and no wind at all. One of the most enjoyable 17 miles of my life. I'm nesh though so quickly retreated to the relative warmth of the camper van not long after dark.

I'm looking at putting together a beginners kit and it seems like I can get a lot of the stuff 2nd hand after it's been used for DofE. I'd be interested to see a video on what to wear and what to pack - Years ago I started my walking hobby in a pair of Dr Martens and some old jeans "because they seemed sturdy"...

    and Standedge are closed. Also no trains running. You just would not be able to get there. Snow would be up to a foot deep.
