    Another cracking video Liam. You're certainly making me want to come down to the Lake & Peak Districts when I get back up and running.

    Another ♠video young man, I love the outdoors and wild camping (I don't get out as often as I should) I just wished I'd started when I was a lot younger, I reckon what you do in three days would take me about a week.
    Just a note on your windy side of the hill, I took up hang gliding in the mid to late 90s and we had to learn about the weather for obvious reasons, what I think you were experiencing was what's called "Eddies", If you know what Eddies are stop reading here.
    If you camp on the opposite side of a hill to the direction the wind is coming from it can sometimes be worse than camping in the actual wind that your trying to avoid, the hill causes the wind to squeeze past it so gets compressed, then once it gets past the hill it rushes back to fill the void created by the hill, it's like a stepping stone in a river, the water has to go round the stone and once past it the water rushes back towards the center of the stone from both sides creating 'Eddies', in the case of wind it's just air blowing in all directions this is why you couldn't work out which direction it was coming from, link below (if it works) that shows the effect of the hill on the wind as it travels around and over the hill.
    Any road, enough of me blurtin on, another crackin video, crackin camp, keep entertaining and keep on trekking .🤘

    Absolutely great video brought back memories from when I was on Helvelyn but in different condition and came down Swirral Edge after a camp on the summit, went back up Striding edge but on the side path not the top, that was years ago late 90’s
    Keep up the amazing videos ⛺️⛺️ wish I could post a picture looking up from Red Tarn but can’t ⛺️

    Swirl edge is definitely easier than striding , which is more exposed and steeper . Scared me to death striding and swirl I felt quite comfortable. But can be done like you say taking your time.
