  • Wild Camping in The lake District | Is This The Best Camp Spot?
    In this video myself and a couple of mates head for a night on Helvellyn. The plan is to head from Glenridding car park up onto Striding Edge and then find a camp spot. I have already camped in this spot before so I knew exactly where I was going. For me this is one of my favourite spots as the views overlooking Striding Edge and onto Ullswater are breath taking. We pitched up in the clag but was treated to a beautiful sunrise in the morning. Just like that its time to pack up and head back to the car. You know the score, take your s*** with you. We headed up to the summit and then down Swirral Edge. Then straight into the valley all the way back to Glenridding. I hope you’ve enjoyed this one as much as we did and ill see you on the next one.

    Another group wild camp video in the Lakes, turning the place into a campsite. There's nothing "wild" about what you're doing, instead you are ignoring the guidelines set by NT and LDNP regarding "out of site", "leave early" and "maximum of two tents". UA-camrs are the new problem now, where "likes" and followers are more important than the environment.

      @iamchriswhelan school boy response, now that's very sad and makes you look really thick and stupid. Say what you like about me, but you are still breaking the rules on private land.

      The amount of shit that goes on in the lakes with people having fires on the floor leaving all their stuff everywhere and you’re arsed about a youtube video just because there’s more than one tent
      Me and Chris camp with the lads all the time and we’ve never left a trace anywhere let alone harmed the environment in any way
      So listen Richard, keep your underpants on and comment on things that are worth commenting on you tosser

      @@richardjennings2708there is nothing wrong with camping on a summit as long as you leave no trace (which we always do) and don’t pitch up in the middle of the day (which again we don’t)
      I quite enjoy it when people like yourself get annoyed though
      Hope we come across you in the mountains sometime so we can all fly the drones and annoy you even more
