    Absolutely awesome video Alex. Those scree/rocky slopes can really take it out of you can’t they? Well done to both of you! Thanks for all the great videos which are so picturesque and informative. Looking forward to the Skye videos having been there twice some years ago.

      Thank you Peter!! I was a broken man for a few days after this 😂 that terrain got the better of me. Off to Skye tomorrow, both very excited. Thank you Peter! 😊👍

    Beast of a route. Hev is a trooper, mate. Always miles ahead ahah. Just been in Florida for 2 weeks which might be the flattest place on Earth. Excited to get back to the Lakes.

    Fantastic video, that was quite a run, those descents looked pretty tricky to say the least. Sorry you didn’t get the views but it was still epic. And wasn’t it great that you found the owner of the lost car key - that must have made their day! Loved the look of the zig zag path, much easier on the knees 👍 Nearly 5k subscribers Alex 👏👏👏

      Thank you Greg!! My legs are still recovering now 😂 couldn’t believe we found the owner of the car, that could’ve been a disaster of a day for them. Thank you Greg, you must’ve been one of my first ever subscribers back when I started the channel, extremely appreciative of your support over the years! 😊

      @@alexcripps.outdoors You are most welcome! You had maybe 200 I think back in the day. Now over 5000! Great stuff. I am back up in the Peaks for 8 nights in late July, can’t wait. If the weather is kind we will tackle Wildboar Clough, out to Bleaklow Stones and return via Torside Clough, I’ve put it off for far too long!
