Thanks for watching! If you like the photographs in this video they're all available at www.blackcrag.com
When you hear that music and see those opening scenes, you know your going on a magical journey. Great to see you back in action.
Yes you could never get bored of the diverse beautiful views wherever you are in the Lake District
Walking poles are a life-saver on wet rock steps
I used to mock them, 1190, but as you get older, ya realise; Hang on a minuit, they'll be handy !!
Terrific walk today, takes me back xxxAnd yes, Finn is a lovely dog xxx
Question friend: Why do the folks care about what Wainwright says? After all, his commentary is just HIS opinion! Enjoy the scenery, and make your own decisions as to whether you enjoy the walk….after all it is your walk, your climb, your opinions that matters…and we generally enjoy it as well! Some places may be a bit scary, but you handle them well, and ALWAYS mention matters of safety for those who will follow in your footsteps one day! Thank you for sharing! (From a couple of friends from over the pond in North Idaho, USA..)
Great start to season 4! I agree with you, I think Wainwright must have had a bad day or a bad weather day to call that dreary. Although the Stairs of Cirith Ungol looked very intimidating. Eek. Lovely summit plateau to pootle about on. I know what you mean, it's just a lovely area to explore and absorb the views and the changing light without rushing. Thanks for posting up on the screen the images you take during the walk, just beautiful. And fellbound is a good description. I don't live in Cumbria and there are so many places in the UK to explore but I tend to spend precious spare time there.
PS, lovely to see little Finn hopping about! ❤️🐶
Wainwright was Definitely wrong. I guess it was a bad day. I planned to go in that area last winter for a wild camp vid. Ended up at Black sails . Think I may have a go this winter. Looks lovely. Great film again mate . Keep it up. Hope the recovery is going ok
Not a problem for the little terrier on the slippery stuff he's got 4 leg drive 😂
Very much appreciate the effort that goes into your filming & the information & help you provide. 👍
Mister Black Crag now this is better than mooching around a town with every man & his dog 😂 speaking of which oh the cute one is sooo adorable 😍 🐕🐶
You have rekindled my desire to climb the fells again my husband loves your videos but misses our times out climbing so thanks for that x
Thankyou for excellent footage of you and Finns walk of Bessyboot
Looking forward to next weeks Glaramara walk 👌👍
Wowzers Wowzers Wowzers .
“Feeds the Soul” indeed it does Glen, breathtaking vid , thank you so much 👌👏👏👏
LOVED EVERY MINUTE!! What do you say always.. just stunning! Gorgious pics of our favorite Finn! So glad that you filled your soul and ours. Thanks for sharing always from the USA!
I think wainwright must have been having a bad day...every view was breathtaking. You could tell how 'fell-bound you were yourself because you didnt even say 'Hi Herdies to the group of three you passed. This has video has shown some of my favourite views so far. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Glenn and Finn,what a lovely walk beautiful waterfall amazing scenery, fantastic video stay safe
What lovely mountains. I enjoyed the hike 😊
And when that music starts, shhhhhhhhh and enjoy 😊
Gobsmacked and Fell bound!!!! Brilliant hike, thank you, again. - Ontario Canada
I went down that way and it wasn’t pleasant I was on my backside more than once
😂😂😂😂
Just mesmerised by those views and your photographs. I wasn’t planning to watch tonight, but started and couldn’t hit the pause button.
Fellbound sums it up perfectly! :)
Fantastic light , changing all the time - superb.
Fantastic views. Thank you for sharing. Another lovely view was the pub.
Take care.
Great to see you back up and running glenn, what a beautiful place that is mate, you timed it so well, it just shows you what great fells there are away from the usual popular routes 👍,
I love those days when pictures are just falling out of the sky all around you.
Thanks both, that was reet grand. looking forward to seeing your pics.🐑
Amazing sunlight pretty spectacular moments thank you
great to see you back on the hills, with finnster and a mhars bwhwar.
Great watch. It was a good idea to shorten this walk as the walk over Allen Crags is a trudge for sure. The steps on this side of stonethwaite are mossy and very dangerous. It was a good to call that out especially if descending; just avoid descending these routes.
Hi Glenn, wonderful video as ever. The great man really does have the odd strange opinion of the fells HE selected for his books. Sometimes you do wonder why he chose them given what he says about them. 🤣
You had some stunning light, for taking photos.
All the best
Dave
Lovely one today, thanks so much xx
Agreed that with this vid you definitively proved the big man wrong. The videographic and pictorial evidence you put together here proves it.
Stunning scenery and lighting 😁
That looked a very very lovely little walk. I spotted some flat areas for a camp on there too. Awesome 👌
What an episode, a photographers dream that, and great to see some photographs featured in the video. Im sure there will be at least 1 from this episode making it onto the wall. Stunning.
Its great to see you back out on some more adventurous walks. Thanks for sharing and look after those legs!
Hi Glenn, good to see you and Finn on the fells again. Hope the foot has healed?
I'm always looking over your shoulder for places to pitch a tent. There looks to be some promising flat spots around Bessyboot or the Cam? If so, I'd spend the night there then move on to Glaramara and Allen Crags and back down either valley to Stonethwaite.
Thanks again and atb, Paul
Another great video. I could (and do) watch your videos all day.
All the superlatives you used on this walk, - please insert them right here! 🎉
Ace that mate. Exactly how i like my walks, quiet, chilled and enjoyable, take your time, no rush and distance covered doesn’t matter to me at all….just sit and take in gorgeous surroundings. Tenerife hiking for us next week 👍👍
Woooo! So happy to see you back out on the fells!!
So so pretty 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 so happy to see you back at doing what you do best 😃😃😃
Lovely walk, and great to see you out on the fells again, and enjoying yourself. 😊👍Thank you.
What a walk, reckon my camera would have got over heated up there with that gorgeous light. Glad to see you seem recovered to start fell walking again
I completely get where your coming from about getting off the beaten path and away from the crowd. I felt exactly that feeling when coming down off Ben Nevis going off the path at the halfway lochan and crossing boggy grassland over to my camp spot overlooking fort William knowing I wasn’t going to see a single soul about until the next day when heading back into fort william
Lovely video looking forward to this series on the southern fells, thanks for sharing again finn looked in good fettle to rave on glen. These are the best videos on you tube i kid you not .
Thanks for sharing some of your photos.
Gobsmacked indeed!!!! I have a question about the “steps” going up Stanley Ghyll (along the edge of that magnificent water fall), to Rosthwaite Fell and Bessyboot. Are they naturally there, having formed over many years, or have they been placed? I am wondering because I have seen the same sort of “stepping stone” paths elsewhere, in a few wild camping videos from Britain… Paul Messner, Andrew Beavers for example.
This is not something that we would ever see here in Ontario. I am fascinated by the crags and valleys, the different textures of plant life, stone/rock/mountains and how it can be so different yet some things very similar.
Another wonderful hike. Thank you, so much, for this short one, where we had time to drink in the vistas, and the light and rainbows. Best next thing to being there and you present it beautifully. I appreciate your enthusiasm and it is catching!!!! Your love of being out is extremely evident! - Ontario, Canada
Another season..yay🎉.
Loved your enthusiasm for light on the fells, I was "fell bound" a few days ago when travelling to Askam and Black Coombe and surrounding fells had offered up a magnificent display and I instantly thought of you!
This looked a great walk and thanks for adding you photographs...amazing. 😊
First class wafflage! I couldn't see the cornish pasty.
Excellent, great route & some fantastic light and stunning shots 👍👍👍👏
Tremendous video, very enjoyable indeed. Lovely area, firmly added to the list!
Not sure if it's because I haven't seen a video of you in the fells for a short while but this landscape looks more dramatic and otherworldly than usual. Top video👍
Good job Glenn, really enjoyed that. I’ve never walked up to Bessyboot and having watched this video I’m not sure why I haven’t! Good to see you and the little lady in the fells. Take care of yourself.
🤣🤣 that did look like a giant pasty well spotted 🤣
Thank you so much for this great video. Stunning pictures
I'm glad to see you back on the Wainwright trail again. A great video, love the photo inserts you added as you went along, but I guess not all days give you such amazing photo opportunities. It inspired me to join Patreon this week 🙂.
Nice vid, as usual👍, nice to see you back out. This vid brings back many lovely memories. We were lucky that it was dry when we were there, definitely would not want to do it the other way round. Also goes to show that bagging the 'biggies' isn't the be all and end all of fell walking.
What a wonderful adventure! Thank You Glenn and Finn. Rainbows are my favorite And, Wainwright was wrong, in my opinion. The views are breathtaking, and in some cases looked surreal. I'm glad you paid attention on your say up, and down. 😊💚
"Lookerit", "fellbound", a giant Cornish pastie" .... BRILLIANT! Please don't ever stop such commentary to your walks. You certainly picked the right day for your Rosthwaite Fell walk - what views!! Yes, it just goes to show, Wainwright wasn't always right.
You’re back in the high fells - yay! 😀 The low level walks were lovely, but the wild and lonely places are where you really come to life. And how amazing that you got so much wall-worthy weather that day. Please PLEASE sell the Delicious Shadowage shot. I will but it in the biggest size you can produce. Thanks so much for another amazing video - loved every minute. xx
Oops! We forgot to mention that it is good to see our favorite pooch: Finn. Adorable, well behaved and so personable!
Great watching as usual Glenn! Thank you. Been looking at your prints on the Black Crag website. Beautiful! Have you ever thought about printing some as sets of cards? Particularly the winter ones for Christmas? Drifter is a top favourite of mine, as is Oh Deer, Sugar Coated...& Och Aye the Coo!....they are all wonderful to be honest! Just a thought, I'd snap them up, as I'm sure others would too. xx❤
on my first trip up bessyboot (same route as you) i lost the path in heavy rain just as you get to the million identical gully's.. hugely disorientating! One of the few times in my walking experience i felt properly lost. Cold, grim, driving rain and lost. Not a nice feeling. Its a very complex summit plateaux in some ways, no line of sight to anything... been back since to drive out the memory-demons!! Same descent as this vid... I need to go back again to enjoy it this time. Still got a hoodoo on the bloody place!!🙈
Nice views on that walk
Oh yes! A strong favourite route mate, last time I did it was with you and the rest of the gang. Quite poignant as it was probably Maze's last fell, her first being Glaramara, your next target, about 20 years ago, I was up Glaramara a few weeks back!
Belting start !! 🎉
Yay. Been really looking for to the southern fells. Although I was surprised at how good the central fells were.
Hi Glen
You would adore the mourne mountains
Best one yet bud,best one yet!!
Well done glad to see you out on the fells. Missed your waffle hats off to you I really don't know how you keep it up, but don't stop.
Hi Glenn thanks for a great video are you thinking on doing a book on the wainwrights a root bagging i think it would sell well I'd bye one 😊
Hi Glen recent subscriber but many a visitor to the lakes but only done Skiddaw mostly a mountain cyclist in the past ..Keep making will catch up on the others ,,👍
I had a horrible time on Bessyboot. Lost the path then found a poor dead sheep stuck in a bog.
Local here. Now - don't you go giving away all our little secrets! More seriously, there are so many wonderful walks on the lower fells where you rarely see a soul and where you can wild camp in solitude. As you say, people tend to be drawn to the tourist routes up the bigger hills.
Amazing! I love Finn joined you. He definitely had Four Pawed Drive! 😅 How many photos do you generally take to get the ones you deem worthy of sharing? Do you edit them? How long have you been taking photos? Do you have formal training or was it just a hobby? And I love that you say "slippy" it's not common in the U.S. but I say it and get made fun of. 😂 Thank you for the great content!
I think weignwright must have gone up when it was clagged in. I've explored much of that area lower down, the waterfalls etc but not been up the peaks in that small area. I need to change that.
I never knew Mr Wainright personally, but i find the idea of him "gurgling with delight " or being effusive about anything a difficult concept, in the minds eye. Not meant as a sleight, seems that's just the way he was. My dad was the same.
Thanks so much for the "Hiking the Wainwrights" videos - looking forward to hiking Bessyboot next week (I can't help thinking "Betty Boop"). Did a couple of "brown cows" go missing in this one though?
"I could live here forever. No. Let's get down. Fancy a pint". Classic ❤😂❤
Thank you for the video, loved it. 😀
Thanks for a stunning walk. The light and the dramatic skies come across so well in your video. Wish I could "like" it twice. All the best.
That little inversion sliding up the side of Grange Fell… I was on the summit photographing it from the other side 😀
Always amazing
The clarity of the light is sharp pure and clear on this particular day. Everything is so crisp and focused on edges, outlines. shapes and colours. It makes the art and form of the near and far views outstandingly more dimensional. Its as though I can smell the earthiness and feel the remoteness. 28.45. your shadow captured .
you are amaze me our you know all the names love little fin beautiful views 😊
We got shipyard here in New England.
Great video Marra awesome route up a fantastic la'al Micro Fell one of my favourites
Lol! Wainwright didn't get every thing right did he... or was he double bluffing?
You captured beautiful light filled moments yet again, thankyou 😊
Good to see you back out and about Glenn. Another inspiring video and some cracking images.
Amazing scenery deffo on my hit list beautiful terrain, don't know what planet Alfred was on when he described it its stunning.
Glad to see your getting back into the hills
Great to see you back in the Fells again. Fin is a bonus.
Love your low level stuff too.
Hi Glen. Love the videos, best channel on YT. When do the photos go on sale? Loved the one with the "delicious shadowage" 👍
Thanks
Thanks so much 😊 🙏
A great video & stunning scenery. Thank you Glenn 🙏.
Fantastic episode as always, have you any plans to release the shot of Bessyboot and tarn at leaves the shot with the fantastic shadowedge just before your mars bar lol. Looking forward to next episode 👏
I never get bored of the lakes, the only other place I normally go is the Scottish highlands.
A rather jolly jaunt. Eyes on the pies there 🥟🥟
