- This route begins just outside Mosedale with a steep pull up a largely pathless bank towards Carrock Fell.. The path becomes more straight forward from this point onto the other 3 Wainwrights of High Pike, Knott and Great Calva however they are extremely boggy so I feel this walk would be best complete when there has been a lack of rainfall in the summer and avoid during winter.

HI mate, looks like you had very similar conditions to us. I totally agree with you. The walk along the valley from Great Calva back to the car was my favourite part of the hike. That and having Lingy hut to get out of the wind for a brew and butty. All the best Marra.
Aye Carrock fell is a top 3 windyest summit for me so far
Tough going there Dave but another 4 in the bag 🏔️🏔️🏔️🏔️ well done 👏 atb Brian 👍
Aye first decent bit of wind av had for a while, cudnt feel ma face.. thanks for watching lad 🤗
That was some hike, very difficult conditions, poor paths, over 14 miles, but you did it! Well done on battling through and living up to your mountain man name! The shelters are a great help at the tops, though I hope you didn't spill too much drink! Regards, Ashley
Yea it wasnt one of my favorites to be fair.. nice views to the north but everything else is really blocked by skiddaw and blencathra.. great path coming back to mosedale along the valley floor which was a nice section
Hello Dave we couldn't find where you parked we went through mosedale really narrow roads then tops was just covered in thick clouds so we turned around and got back on a66 back up to Penrith then M6 to Wigan were gunna do the 4 tomorrow but we need to find where you parked I watch your videos keep up the good work Jordan from Wigan
Just north of mosedale.. ull pass a farm on the right as you leave the village and the parking is the next grassy verge on the left just after the farm
@@daveostlemountainman cheers Dave were going again tomorrow leaving Wigan at half 3 in the morning should be there for half 5 went today but couldn't find it plus the tops just was covered in thick clouds and was pissing down to thanks again Jordan from Wigan
Great effort and well done Dave Lad....lol your gonna have to git a spare battery Marra 😊 👍🏻
i take 3 batteries.. if u let the wind hit the gopro for more than 5 seconds it just shreds them to 0%.. gonne buy 2 more :/
@@daveostlemountainman GoPros are so sporadic bud especially there battery consumption ... I take 3 and only ever use up to 2 even in sub zero temps I also use a remote with it now it reduces the clip and file size by half especially on on all them walk backs I do 😊👍🏻
Enjoyed this pal 👍 I’m bagging Wainwright’s myself so always good to watch walks before I do them 🏔️. Have to drop me a line in summer and we’ll get out for a hike in the lakes pal 👍🥾🏔️ keep up the great work mate
