well, it's really nice seeing an older guy still getting out. I'm 62 and just started getting into backpacking 2 years ago, and even with my health problems, I feel so much better after a walk in the woods. I am happy to subscribe to your channel and look forward to more adventures. Dwayne
Another great video Dave .. You had a fab day for it and the scenery was stunning ! Also very interesting learning how High Cup was formed - I’ve just been reading up on it and apparently the Nick part is named after an old cobbler from Dufton who used to climb up there to do some of his work ! 😊👍🏼
Nice one Dave , looks a cracking spot , nice geography lesson too , aye you miss the the masterclass sessions from your Steven 😁, great vid thanks , atvb Deka 👍🏻👊🏻
Really enjoyed that, been 25 years since I was last there now living in Sri Lanka. Inspired to get back into it when I return but my wife says I should stick to golf.
no better location 👌good weather for you on day one👍the last time I camped there I never slept a wink due to wind battering my tent all night. take it easy.
@@overthehillwildcamper I made a mistake when I was typing the message. It should be as well not Haswell. I used to live near Haswell and Haswell Plough when I was younger. Very quite places now .
Great video, being going through your back catalog and really enjoying them. I noticed you have a 3ful gear back pack, how have you found it using it with out the mat in the back? Been looking at getting one but not sure about having the mat in it. Keep up the great work
Thanks for watching and regards to Ted, I had the foam mat in the back the first few times but it did get a bit sweaty. I now use a 3mm Thinny from Atom pack but I position it inside the pack along with my Thermarest sleep mat folded so that it’s similar inside than if it was outside. I find that comfortable ATB Dave.
@@overthehillwildcamper thank you for that, seen it with the mat on the outside and it did not look the most comfortable pushing the weight away from your back. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic camping spot, very nice😁👌👍

Thanks for watching Dwayne, being out in the fresh air is the best prescription.
Outstanding work my friend! What a wonderful views 🔥🔥
Thanks for watching, im sure you will have equally wonderful views.
Not over the hill yet mate , I enjoyed that.
Thanks.
It’s somewhere I’ve yet to visit hopefully this year along with Cross Fell
ATB 🍻
Thanks for watching Dave, Cross Fell is certainly worth a visit, it’s not as dramatic as High Cup but some great views.
Awesome Dave. I love HC. Genuinely one of the best places in England for me. Tops anything in the Lakes. Liked the geology too. 😎
Thanks Chris, first time up there hopefully it won’t be the last, I’ve just graduated from the university of google with a first in geology.
A nice relaxing watch, Dave, I enjoyed that. That valley is pretty impressive, what a great place to pitch.
Thanks for watching Ryan, I’ve been wanting to camp there for some time.

Thanks for watching Graham, yes it was a great day and evening up there, the next morning not so good but really enjoyed it.
Great videography, stunning place. Thanks for uploading. ATB. 👍
Thanks Nick, you can’t fail to get good footage up there.
Slept out there doing the Pennine Way in 1978. Found an old lead mine entrance so didn't even bother putting the tent up.
I hope you’re still getting out there Tom, thanks for watching,
Spot on Dave, cracking spot up high cup nick mate, I’ve been hiking up there but never camped there, definitely a one I would like to do, atb Mick 👍
It’s a great spot, a mid week camp is advised, can get a bit busy, thanks for watching ATB Dave
Nice video Dave. Love that place and hopefully will do it myself next Friday 👍🏻
Thanks for watching Jon, hope you get decent weather next Friday.
Nice one Dave , looks a cracking spot , nice geography lesson too , aye you miss the the masterclass sessions from your Steven 😁, great vid thanks , atvb Deka 👍🏻👊🏻
When you’re used to quality trangia food dehydrated is a bit of a come down. Thanks for watching Deka.
Good video. Hope to be going there later this year. I now have a Durston x-mid 2p solid.
Thanks for watching David, it’s a great spot and you’ll have plenty of room in that tent.
Really enjoyed that, been 25 years since I was last there now living in Sri Lanka. Inspired to get back into it when I return but my wife says I should stick to golf.
Any exercise is better than none but it’s great to be out in the hills, thanks for watching David.
Lovely spot that. Enjoy.
Yes it’s great up there, thanks for watching.
Nice one Dave 👍
Thanks Jimmy, I try my best.
no better location 👌good weather for you on day one👍the last time I camped there I never slept a wink due to wind battering my tent all night. take it easy.
Thanks for watching Steven, luckily the wind didn’t strengthen till after daybreak, my sleep is always a bit hit and miss.

Sorry got you mixed up with “thegeordiewildcamper”
Cracking camera work , Mate. Cracking video Mate. A place I would love to get back to Haswell.
Thanks for watching Andrew, I can assure you the camera work is down to the equipment, incidentally my father was born in Haswell Plough.

Enjoyed that Dave, thanks. You're a broadcasting natural, your own TV show?
Thanks David, I’m open to offers.
Great video, being going through your back catalog and really enjoying them.
