    Talk about a game of 2 halves, that epic otherworldly dron footage of that immense slate mine, followed by the cruise ship shenanigans around the fire 🤣 Not sure that's what you expected up there. Stay safe lads!

      Thanks for watching Craig and sorry for the late reply. We didn’t expect that many people to be up there tbh as we never realised it was so popular but we soon found out with a bang 🤣 was an unforgettable experience though 😆 Thanks Craig.

      Thanks for watching. We turned up first then the people in the mess hut/bothy turned up later so moving for us wasn’t an option as it was too dark so we had to put up with it, I hope they took all their rubbish with them which I think they would have as they looked like decent folk 👍 thanks for watching the vid

    Stunning scenery. What an awesome place to camp. I think I would have been tempted to join the party. Nothing wrong with sleeping in. Loved the drone footage. I've never heard of any of these places. Now I'm doing research. Hopefully, some day I'll make it across the pond to check it out. Thanks for a great video.

    Evening guys, we love this route and have walked it many times, however not with cumbersome camping packs! the slate sand the heather was perfect contrast, stunner! so big isn't it, goliath! the museum at the bottom is worth a visit too and free, there is a man that puts on a display of slate splitting, promise more interesting than it sounds! incase you ever get rained off. Loved the Lady of Snowden too, great spot! Super interesting place, loved all the old bits n bobs ❤👍
    stunning pitch, cant get over how busy it was! jeeze 😚 loved the drone footage and the light just added to the awe! the camp sing song was brilliant too, genuinely good 🥰 dont expect to find a disco on a camp do you, first time for everything right 😑
    thanks for taking us along. great watch, goat fight n all, catch you soon, Ceri and Kat 👍❤☕

      Also the mess hut had about 12 polish people in there who were having a fire and a party and they even secured the door from the inside and we couldn’t have gone in even if we wanted to, they were a right funny bunch they were partying hard until around 3 am and a right pain in the arse kept us awake, wasn’t expecting that .

    Leave no trace when you visit nature! Quite a place you have visited on this hike and I found the area stunning and with a sense of history that few places can match. It is hard to imagine that there was a time when miners were working there and not happy campers having a party:) Especially the drone flight showed just how amazing the area is; but if you want peace and solitude it seems like a wrong place. And you did look tired in the morning - so would I with a Neil DIamond sing along the evening before! Cheers to all from Norway
