... not sure how promoting wild camping on youtube and marketing Scottish ale does anything positive for the Lake District.
Where did you get the cap from the lakeland one - very cool
Do you have to be black to join?
Thank you. Just retired, I have been contemplating wild camping. I’m now convinced. I have the gear and will start in my native Northumberland. Possibly Humbleton Hill. Then, the Lakes.
Langdale is heaven on earth for me. It's been thirty years since I last wild camped there. This video captures the feeling of the place perfectly. I'm a bit old now but I will one day return. Thank you for making it real.
What a stunning camp site! Absolutely gorgeous ... Thank you for taking us along with you...
Such a soothing voice. It often seems men from up North tend to have annoying squeaky twangs, but not Glenn, nice deep voice yet soothing with it. And the beautiful landscape to boot.... just need the cute doggo back!!! 😀 41:31
Excellent this ❤terrific getting away from people isn't it🤔can't put a price on peace and quiet 🎉
Sigh! I am lost for words. Such a beautiful area, lovely vistas. Your sunrise shots were amazing!!!!! As you are watching the sun rise, I am at home watching the sun set. I have been working evening shifts, today I worked a ten hour day shift and this is simply a delight to see. I am also a photographer, but no photos for me, I am simply enjoying the moment. - Thank you, from Ontario Canada
That night deserves the thumb up
Great video, if I have any financial capacity I would love to support your magnificent work. You seem like a guy who prefers small crowds and just going for adventures that provides an escape from the harsh reality. I wish I can afford such option but for now, by watching you beautiful lad, I get to experience what its like and it almost made me tear up. I want to explore the gift of nature, hopefully soon I can do it.
Thank you for taking us wild camping. Absolutely brilliant 🤩
YouTubing at its absolute best. Perfect morning viewing. Thanks guys and girls
Thank you 😊
Camped there once, and whilst rousting about found the remains of a plane crash on Bowfell.. Wasn't too long after the crash so the tail section was pretty intact.... There was also a sheep carcass in the wreckage which initially quite startled my teenage self at the time.... !!!
II is primal. It has been lost until we discover it personally . The most wonderful thing.
16:25 yep, that is true. But not only wildcamping. Where I'm from and I do get a chance to stand in fron of massive peaks of big drops, where nature reminds you that you are nothing. It shatters your ego, removes all the problems and you get in a almost like a meditative state. You can really feel that primal connection with the nature and that you are a part of it.
Quality Glenn. What a great time of day to be at that location for a stunning sunset and sunrise and so good for the mental health. I could sit for hours on top of a mountain with no one else around...perfect.
Nice little swimming hole off that waterfall, awesome
What a fantastic camping spot--a true "room with a view."
Absolutely stunning camp, hike and attitude Glenn. Have only just discovered your channel, and it’s rapidly becoming one of my very favourites. Just brilliant videos mate: really helping to give me a kick in the arse and drag my knackered knees up and about. 👍👋
Bow fell looks magnificent.
Just a shame I live in Kent 😢
This was just what I needed after a difficult and stressful week, a trip to my favourite mountain😊 Crinkle Crags was the first mountain I climbed and the view from where you were has to be one of the best in the whole of Lakeland. Really enjoyed this one Glenn, even your waffle was top class ❤❤️ ❤❤
Lovely video 👏👏 amazing sunrise . It’s spooky people are wandering around in the middle of the night in such remote places . I could be on the moon and a coach trip of aliens would pull up 😖
Oh…. the sheer calmness and mental refreshment after a long week. Exactly what I needed. What a lovely video, in every way. Thanks Glenn, as always! 🙂
Great video again this week 👍🏻
“I’m not a sheep shagger” cracked me up 😂
Another great video fella. I'll have to wait another 6 weeks for my next dose of sanity.
Thank You for another wonderful adventure, BC. 😊💚
Ha Love it "I don't want to go home, I could just live in a tent". Haha great! (i know, exactly)
You have a good voice for videos 👍 great video!
And funny. "Goodbye Table" 😅🙏🙏🙏 deffinetly relate.
Well done 🙌
Lots of Sean the Sheep's in the lakes aye.
Well done
As usual mate absolutely loved it. Think im going to have to take a look at this one my self.All the best🤪👍
By the way I totally agree with you as far as "camping for our sanity ". And you take some crackin photos.😊👍
What a fantastic video, filming and audio marvelous. Just loved it so much, thank u xxx
Great video, it's an amazing place. It's not very often in life that one can listen to that silence, it just grabs you inside. So looking forward to the next one.
Looks fantastic and great to get away from people and noise
Another gem of a video Glenn. Thankyou sir for your wonderful content.
Love going on these hikes/camps with you. I think you make us feel like we are there enjoying it as well. I hear you on the people thing.. thanks for sharing!
After discovering your channel earlier this week, I've been watching one of your videos every day. This was the 2nd one I watched, but felt compelled to watch it again as this one really resonates with me. The light nights - which unfortunately, are already slowly on their way out - the beautiful weather - which we haven't exactly had a lot of these last couple of weeks - the peacefulness and those incredible views. Even that particular area where you camped seems weirdly familiar to me in some strange way. I'm not even a camper, but I love this content and will continue to watch. Cheers!
Great location and always nice to get up early and watch the sunrise.
What a video!!
Im inspired every time I watch yr videos pal , but this one was true CLASS!
Totally agree with chats!
Thanks
Good job, loved the vlog. Those Brewdog IPA's cost about 3GBP out here in Hong Kong where I live, so quite jealous of that. Just get a few weeks each year in N. Yorks and a few days in the Dales and occasional visits to the Lakes. So thanks for sharing so many wonderful experiences in that part of the country.
Love your videos and love your chat. Really makes it seem like we're up there with you and you're chatting to your friends.
❤ I truly need that experience. All the problems, and dramas overwhelmed me recently. I got a van, I've got a gear (except handy tent), I've got a 5 days off every two weeks,I've got a passion for wild camping, I can even see a Breckon Beacon from my house window, but I can't motivate myself to do something great with my time.
Do it 👍
Wow! A perfect place to go after a stressful week at work. Bliss!
Great channel 😀👍
Another great video Glenn. Very much appreciated during these difficult times. You are an inspiration.
Spectacularly beautiful. Thank you.
One of your best videos you’ve done. Fabulous!
Just missed you! We went up through the farm, and up to crinkle gill about 2 hours after you came down...... lovely film. Totally agree with you about how it feels to be out for the night in those surroundings. 👍
Love your videos its like we're there with you.👌🍺👍
Looked like an awesome journey man! A+ for no water spillage this time 😂. Such gorgeous countryside over there across the pond, would love to travel out that way one day, keep up the amazing work my friend.
😂
"I'm not a sheep shagger by the way" 😂😂😂 That line actually made me laugh out loud.
Great wee film
Brian.
Greetings Glenn great hike amazing scenery the hills, the sheep awesome, your videos are always so informative, the moon was beautiful, fantastic sunrise thanks for sharing stay safe
Great video Glenn … I love the waffle … don’t ever give it up 😊
Great vid. So pleased to see you doing more wild camping. It's added an extra dimention to an already great channel 😀
What a delightful place - the absolute quite and the wildlife (that are not predators) just a few meters away would be a brilliant memory. However, I have just learned something about myself by watching this video: I, personally, like water when camping! I always knew that I loved it and that it fuels my soul, but it wasn't until I saw this snowless and barren landscape that, as beautiful as it is, I realized that it is not for me. :-O
I camped at that spot about 20 years ago. Amazing place and views if the clag aint down
Right on my doorstep 2. Pun intended. Wish I had the legs to get up there marra.
Great video Glenn. Just done my first wild camp up at the top of Hellvelyn. Weather was great. Woken up by a drone at 4am though! Thanks for your all your inspiration!
Living in North Essex , I love the outdoors and the lake district even more.
I get there as much as I can , thank you for your videos - I'd love to do a mountain camp.
But as you say , start easy first.. baby steps.
Thank you again 👍😊 glorious evening there with stunning views.
It's not flat , it's just spectacular 👌
Honestly that view at the start of your hike and then coming back down into the valley was mind blowingly beautiful! Thanks for taking us! 😊
Brilliant views well done.
Awesome mate, jealous yes and wish i was a tad younger again. Perfect weather for it any sign of cold and my Raynaud’s kicks in and that is totally painful believe me 👌👍👍👍👍
I can't help but feel like, as a viewer, we're the last people that will see this place in such serene silence. I can't believe there aren't people crawling all over it.
Keep spreading your infectious positivity, Glenn. The Lake District and its hikers are blessed to have you as an integral part of their journey.
Thank you 😊 🙏
Yes my friend, getting back to the simplicity of life,…out in nature, away from people and the hectic rush of life! Looks amazing 😍
Cracking stuff mate, more or less in the place I was last time up there, could I do with that now 👍👍👍
Absolutely love the videos you share and enjoy the adventure. Please keep sharing as much and as often as you are able. I live in MT in 🇺🇸. Thank you for bringing this side of the world to me. ❤❤
Thanks for sharing your wild camp, I've camped for years but never in the wild, I know now why you enjoy it so much and yes, it must be hard to go home. 😢🏕
Wow brillant video hats off to you glen. Loved it best one iv seen thanks so much for sharing again.
I really enjoyed that, one of the best camping videos I've seen in a long time. Absolutely beautiful spot you were in. Keep up the awesone videos.
Awesome vlog again ⛰️🍺📷
Peace pure peace 💙
Hi Glenn. Beautiful video again mate. I was only on the band, Bow Fell and Esk Pike, the other week. Thank you so much for sharing as always. Cheers Dave. 😀⛰🥾
Crinkle Crags is the lumpiest mountain I have ever been on. But those views of Langdale and the Scafell Range are amazing- while seeing the southern side of Bow Fell reveals a craggy-like rib section (full of grooves in rock face) which I have seen nowhere else in the Lake District.
Loved the video. As you were walking there, I was wondering how do you even start to have the experience needed to wild camp in such a location - then you went on and explained how to go about doing it. I too worry about spiders getting in the tent, I would be ultra careful when it comes to opening that zip to stop them getting in I think :). Looks a lovely rejuvenating place, thank you for sharing your chilling time with us.
Hey black crag just sub to your channel love the videos you do excellent videos love from Dublin🇮🇪
There’s only one 4.30 and it isn’t the one in the morning 😂. Another informative vlog love the Langdales
This is one absolutely perfect video. Thoroughly enjoyed it and I liked the way you focussed on just how good the soltude was. Seems like this one hit the spot!
I bumped into you earlier in the year when you were heading up Stickle Ghyll for the (very) wild camp you had and I had the Repace's on so we had a chat about those I remember 😃👍
Always enjoy your videos man. I've been contemplating for a few years investing in some proper gear and doing this but soley doing the dayhikes at the moment! Hopefully I'll be out doing this soon.
Cheers mate 🤝
Love this! Recently back from staying at Harry Place farm in the valley, some fantastic walks and views.
Seen a few of your vids. Love this too. Start to finish. There's something about never doing this sort of thing (closest I get it a farmers field once a year at RIAT) yet experiencing it first hand. Thank you 👍
Great vlog as usual. So relaxing to watch I nearly dozed off😂
So excited to see this video in my sub box! 😄 Can I ask if you started camping/hiking solely for the purpose of your photography, or how you got into it? Was it always a part of your life? Would love to hear about how it became important to you. or even if you talked about it in a video. Much love!
Cracking video as always, love that spot, was recently up bow fell, may have even been the same weekend as I saw a few of those markers!
Awesome video really enjoyed this one was looking at google maps as you pointed out all the different crags and features😁
👍 for the title alone
Amazing video as always Glenn, thanks so much. Your narration makes me feel like I’m there. Hope to do a wild camp at some point, just not sure I have the confidence. I know it would be great, just gotta do it 😅
Great video as always, agree 100% when you said you crave for more of the wild now you’ve unleashed it. I’ve found this too, so rewarding and the fulfilment you get from it is like no other. Enjoy your next adventure and thanks for another top video 👍🏻
Thank you 😊
Great video as usual 👌 😊
Beautiful cathartic video, literally my favourite viewpoint in the Lake district. What lovely peaceful weather the UK has had for what feels like ages, the Midges are defo taking advantage of the lack of wind however!
Another fabulous video! Thank you for taking us on your journey ❤️. I sincerely hope you find a companion that appreciates you and will be your cohort in life, traveling, cooking, camping. And, of course, must love Finn! ❤ Sorry reread my comment and I sound like some meddling maiden aunt! Not my intention at all
Thank you so much for sharing this! Skmply awe inspiring!
I love the lakes. Wish they were closer so I could go more. Ps change your antiflicker setting in the camera to 50hz to match the frequency of electricity. It’ll stop the flashing lights when you are in shops and stuff 😁👍
I've tried but the GoPro performs terribly at 25 or 50fps. Really laggy. Maybe I've got a dud 😂
@@BlackCrag lol. I’m literally just looking online now at the dji osmo 4. Thinking of swapping out my GoPro just so I can plug straight in the dji mic
Great video and same tent as me! Awesome 👌
This is exactly the kind of video I love watching, thanks for sharing your experience! I just discovered your work through listening to Mali's podcast. Your videos are very inspiring, this is exactly what I am aspiring to do. By the way, I am a bit of a metal head myself ;-)
Yes!!! Step two!!!
wish i could carry a tenth of that in this weather
Great vid mate I have driven 5hrs for one night in the mountains and 5hrs home totally worth it
Another great VLOG. 😁
So enjoyable. Thank you. ❤
I enjoyed tagging along with you on this journey very much!
Que show seus vídeos cada dia que passa mais lindo fica os seus vídeos parabéns muito show
Just stunning. I love your videos. Can't wait to get out camping again. All the best
Still loving the work.
Brilliant video, did make me laugh when you said im not a sheep shagger 😂
Hearing voices in the middle of the night would of been a bit freaky, great views though, the simple free things in life are the best, what a way to get away from people and all the bad in the world.
All the best !!
Fantastic vlog, thanks for posting 👍
