  • Hi everyone, in this video i head up to Three Tarns to camp up on either Bowfell or Crinkle Crags, once again the weather forecast was slighlty out, and had to change plans.
    Brought the frying pan with me this time for some more gourmet cooking...a juicy cheeseless cheese burger.
    Hope you enjoy watching, would love to hear from you all in the comments.
    Thanks,
    Richard.

    Love it up round Three Tarns. You found a great spot up there! Cracking view of the Scafells. I was up on Pillar that night with the tent flapping about too - who needs sleep 😵😂 Enjoyed the vid mate 👍

    Cracking spots up there, Langdales are my favourite playground and I never need an excuse to drop into the Old Dungeon Ghyll.
    Plus I'm a Durston fan boy on the quiet so loved seeing that out there.
    Always good to hear another proper accent on UA-cam too. Can't beat a steak barm. 😁
    Liked and subbed.
    Good video.

    Very well filmed this matey. Game changer cooking some decent scran. Said it for ages me about packet meals. I always take left over food and re heat it. Far cheaper and tastier. We defo need to get out on a camp man.

    Thats interesting about parking at the old dungeon ghyll, you used to be able to park in there small scruffy car park for £3 a night and the money went to the helicopter that takes the big bags of stones up for footpath repair, but the owner stopped it after covid. The new dungeon ghyll offer the same deal £10 to park in a field infront of the hotel. I guess it’s easy money for them and more revenue, plus we get overnight parking so win win. Is that the newer version of the Durston? Looked green than light blue and the vent was on the side not above the door. Atb Karl

      Ey up mate, no this is the original Durston, it’s a decent piece of kit. Ordered some Sea to Summit ground anchors to attach to the guy out points (not sure why the guy lines don’t come included) so they should help combat the wind.
      I didn’t know about the over night parking at old dungeon to be honest, just went in with my fingers crossed and he charged me a tenner for overnight. Cheers for watching matey, Atb mate. 👍🏼

    Great video mate.
    Is that the standard x-mid 2 or the pro version. Been looking at them both.
