    Great Gable is an impressive mountain to observe from the surrounding fells but it is as equally impressive to explore.
    In this vlog I set off from Wasdale heading towards Sty Head. The aim of the day is to explore around the Great Napes area.
    Unfortunately time was against me towards the end and fatigue began to set in so the decision to abandon a visit to Napes Needle was a wise one - It just means I need to go back!

    You're videos are bloody excellent! I like your delivery. You talk with us rather than to us. Also you are providing an excellent reference and guide for us all. Lakeland Tourism should be paying you royalties!

    It's catch up time again. I must say I love the music you picked, the heart beat rhythm is so fitting. Astounding views, they never disappoint me. Thank you for showing us all places that many of us can't reach. 🤩👍

    Great scenery your videos just show what I have missed, wonky knee and too old now. Really appreciate your vlogs.👍

    Another great vlog. Love the way you show a panoramic view and label the fells. I love understanding the geography of the fells, in relation to the towns and to each other.
    Have you ever seen the Tubular Fells map in the style of the London underground?? Really clever idea.

    We did Great gable covered in cloud and mist and the descent through the scree was hairy to say the least.. Great video!

    Just discovered you and will catch up and watch all your vlogs, on my 3rd now, drone footage and photography is amazing. Enjoy the snippets of history too. We are new to The Lakes and constantly learning from your great knowledge.

    Great video, amazing quiet day for it! I had the same, three walkers were lost trying to find Scaffel pike at the stretcher box, I told them to head back down to wasdale. That night my boss was called out on a rescue, for three walkers. I would love more women to get into walking, but it's hugely important that you learn to read a map first.

    Love it again. At some point these videos will be massively popular because they're excellent, so I'll post comments while you'll still see them haha. Can't get there this weekend but maybe next. The views look fantastic but I'd probably have to try the cheating route from Honister as Wasdale is the wrong side of the Lakes for me on a day trip. I tried Green Gable once but as usual it was too foggy to see anything so was pointless. But keep up the great work. I love watching these videos when I can't actually be there. Cheers.

    • @BlackCrag
      @BlackCrag  5 років тому +1

      Thanks so much Rob and thank you for your support and belief 🙏 Hope you're able to get up here soon.... Honister is a great route in 👌

    Another pearl in your Oyster! Keep them coming! Where you went, is the same type of terrain I spent my life climbing. For me, the craggier, and steeper the scree-scrambles, and dried up waterfalls I could find, the better the adrenalin rush I got! Now I struggle up the dam stairs! Lol.
    This is just a tip for my hopes from you, (pretty please, LOL); If you say or heading up to a, or the, summit, turn the camera to show what summit your going up? Plus you mention another particular summit in the distance, perhaps suddenly turn the camera to show where it is? That helps me to get the bearings on where 'it' is, in relation to you? You do a lot of that already I know, but it sort of 'fine tunes' your great scenes, so I just hope for more, in order to keep the memories of where I once stood.
    I wonder if clipping the camera high to your shoulder strap, to keep the camera rolling while closing in, and up on to the craggy edges of each summit, (just an extra, from your pleasing Vlogs?). Lol.

    I’m just enjoying going through your videos having done most of the same hikes. Funnily enough I had similar conditions up Great Gable around 4 years ago. I watched your Sca Fell pike vlog and you’ve got my interest in Piers Gill. I’m planning a hike up Lingmell over Xmas. Looking forward to it. Great work by the way👍👍
