Im just remembering doing this in reverse in 1985 I think, camped in Deepdale, rained all day and stayed in my Peapode tent but next day walked over Fairfield (steep going) to Helvellyn down to Glenridding and back to tent. Those were the days, must have been fit.
@BUSHMANandBLUE cheers mate. Yeh they are great dogs. Am from northumberland so may see you around on an overnight camp. Great page thought you have some fab videos 👍
Wonderfull place you Got there. Beautiful nature and a great video. Enjoyed this video very Much. Looking foreward to more adventure s from your Channel. ATB SØREN 😊😊😊
Loving the videos. It's great to live in the country, I'm lucky enough to live in the Mournes in Northern Ireland. Seriously impressed with your dad, keep up the good work and always enjoy yourself.
Cracking video....as always. Can’t wait to head out soon. Love the sat nav tool (always partial to a dad joke😂). Keep up the good work and best to you and the dog!
I am heading out to the lakes next week, can’t wait to get the Abisko up. You look like you’ve been busy too😉 www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cumbria-57169995.amp
Fantastic and very informative video. Cracked up laughing towards the end of the video. Poor boat hand nearly getting taken out by the speeding tourists returning the boat. Funny thing is, we were down on lake Ullswater last Wednesday and one of the boat hands was just talking about people returning the boats from hire, going way to fast into the dock. 😂😂
Well spotted in the background! I’m glad you got something from the video. I’m hoping every video people will gain at least something even if just a smidge of entertainment or inspiration. Thanks!
I just discovered you videos and you inspired me alot to go camping again after few years, and start my own YT channel , nice vid and super DOG !!! hope we can meet someday in Like District .
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I was sleeping on scafell pike 2 weeks ago but was so freezing , and I ordered ( 2 days ago)FJÄLLRÄVEN ABISKO LITE 1..when the package arrives, I will go again :) cheers mate ^^
What views!! I love that Grizedale tarn area, I’ve come at it from Glenridding on a Lakeland Trail run and also stopped for water on the Lakes in a Day race. Flippin awesome! I’ve also just bought myself one of those Therm-a-rest trekker seats 👍 & S2C pillow 😎 Cheers!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Not sure how but I see some channels have links in their videos and people can purchase which puts some credit your way to? Might be worth checking.
Have just done the same route..well part of it. This steep end of Seat Sandal was so scary lol. But night at Grisdale Tarn was nice :) Great vid, loved it. Will definitely have to do this St. Sunday Crag.
I enjoy watching your videos and seeing blue skiing was funny. I’ve just bought a new jacket it’s the Mountain Equipment gortex jacket do you think it’s any good. ? Awesome video again I keep finding episodes of yourself and blue that I haven’t watched before,excellent. Can’t wait to see your next video my friend John from Sheffield England
Nice another video just in time when i was about to sit down to watch something and eating my sushi :) love your channel btw.. found it last weekend and think ive seen it all soon. Hope you are doing well and i love your dad btw, such a cool man :)
@@BUSHMANandBLUE we do plenty as well but he always seems to want to have a wander about at around 2-3am and have a drink (he’s diabetic so I get that part) I’m sure he does it at home wandering around the house but I rarely hear him. Blue mearle collies are the best though :-)
I've camped at Hard tarn, it s hard to get to and hard to find from below but there isn't much dry room but there is some. then you can climb up the face like i did(don't recommend it) or via the ridge to the top
So much choice in the lakes! It’s a bit dark by the tarn but I might have a go one day. There’s a lovely spot near by higher up I found which is on my list. Thanks for the message!
Seeing the Sun rise on a new day is special and you captured a stunner there. How do you rate the Abisko? Blue is a beautiful looking dog and looks completely at home on the Fells. ATB. Mick.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I have the same tent and a 'Blue' ..but a 'Jess' version. Love going feral in the Lakes! Keep the videos coming, they are a treat to watch x
Oh that makes me happy! Get back out 😬. The knife is a ‘buck’ knife which I think I paid £20 for it although I think it retails at £40. It has a bottle opener on it too so a handy knife at a BBQ.
It’s the OMM (original mountain marathon) kamleika jacket (older style). It’s awesome for running as it’s 4 way stretch. Not the best mountain waterproof but good lightweight one for a ‘just in case’. They cost loads but I bought it for £85 in a sale.
When I asked my brother how we got up Helvellyn (in 1968) coming from Patterdale, he answered, we went straight up! I won't argue with him, but I think his memory is worse than mine.
Loving the videos, you and Blue make quite the team - inspirational adventures. Is that a my little pony hat? Looks great where on earth did you manage to find one in an adult size? Keep up the good work
Thanks Kirsten! My hat was getting thrown out by my daughter so I used it. It fits like a dream and the outer material is actually wind proof! You pay lots for a hat like that and mine was free.
I didn’t park there I parked road side out of town. I’m not sure you can overnight in that car park. I would have thought so. Over winter there is more parking available I think. Thanks.
He’s a border collie sheep dog (trained on the sheep too). The mittens are Salomon which I carry for wet weather to go over my wind stopper gloves to keep them dry. Thanks mate!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Love those mountains, BTW you're never too far away from a comfortable B&B, but hey why do I watch the wild camping? I have an Oru folding kayak that I'm going to put on every Tarn in those mountains
AM GOING FOR A WALK IT LOOKS OVERCAST HERE WERE WERE I AM STINKS OF SMOKE THE WHOLE AREA DIESEL MIXES OF WAGONS CARS ALL DAY AN NIGHT ANYWAYS AM GETTIN UP OFF FLOOR NOW AN STANDINDIN ON THE HOOFERS I HOPE AN THE LITTLE BONES AN JOINTS PERMIT ME
Hi. BEAUTIFUL. SCENERIES. AWESOME. AMAZING. HIKING. CAMPING.
Beautiful and exciting as ever, Al and Blue - thank you! 🙏❤️🌳🐝🦇🐈

Always memorable adventures👍👍👍
Thanks bushman and blue
You inspired us to go to lakes
Looking forward to next trip 😀.
Oh good enjoy!!!
We climbed catbells and walked and walked ....scary and amazingly beautiful...
Rosa the spaniel came too...
Bowfell tarn was peaceful
Its addictive x
Its amazing the difference from the cold to feeling the warmth. Just a few degrees makes such a difference.
And walking up some mountains! 😂 what a night it was!
Outstanding wild camp in one truly amazing place. Six Star Film ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh thank you! I just enjoy been out there!
Wow mate, can't believe I've only just seen this video mate, it's one of the best, great route and hiking and a perfect pitch. Superb 👌👌
😂 some of my videos haven’t that many views and they are pretty awesome adventures. This pitch is worth a look mate👌
@@BUSHMANandBLUE yeah I honestly can't understand why I haven't seen this, it's epic I proper loved it. Real tough hiking too just how I like it 🤙
Fantastic videos and what a stunning dog. I have two collies myself and hope to take mine on a overnight hike and camp soon.
Good luck with it. Great dogs😉

Love this video! Thanks for sharing!
Awwww thanks. My next one is actual wild camping dream!
Another great video. Thank you for sharing it with us. Views and sunrises were stunning.
Yes that was quite a special spot. One I’ll remember. Thanks mate.
Loved the starsky and hutch music & skiing dog. Looks like you had a great multi day trip. Awesome Vid. One of my favorite places.
It is beautiful all around there. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I definitely did!
Another Awesome vid! Scenery stunning! No wind on top of the mountain! Reminded me of my youth in the cadets!👏👏👏👏
Thanks mate. I appreciate all the comments. Good to reminisce too!
Brilliant again mate! Was up Fairfield on Saturday doing the horseshoe. Gorgeous! Can’t wait for your next video!!
Good lad thanks! I’ll keep rolling the videos out.
Cracking video....as always. Can’t wait to head out soon. Love the sat nav tool (always partial to a dad joke😂). Keep up the good work and best to you and the dog!
Thanks man! I’m glad someone else appreciates a dad joke. Get yourself out!!!😬👍

OMG you do twice the distance just to get the camera shots. Nuts mate, but bloody brilliant. Dog is awesome. Well gel.😜
It keeps me fit! And I love it outside! The dog is awesome. I’m lucky to have him as my best mate.
Another cracking film Al, really enjoyed that 😃
Thanks mate! I enjoyed filming it!

Thank you! Your great videos & enthusiasm for wild camping has finally got me out here! First solo night on Dartmoor 😎👍
Wow you’re out now? I’m so glad I’m helping people even if just in a small way. Have an amazing time!!!
This looks like so much fun! Great video. Thanks for sharing. New here can’t wait to see more videos.
There are more videos on the way for you! Thank you and I’m happy you enjoyed it 😊
Just found your videos and so pleased I did! Will have to binge watch some more and I'm a new female subscriber 👍
Excellent! Welcome and enjoy my channel. 😊
Blue has definitely sold it to me 🤭
Yeah he definitely is Batman and just a regular Robin. 😂😂😂
Have just done the same route..well part of it. This steep end of Seat Sandal was so scary lol.
But night at Grisdale Tarn was nice :)
Great vid, loved it. Will definitely have to do this St. Sunday Crag.
It’s a glorious walk! I didn’t fancy Grisedale Tarn as it seemed to be in the dark but a beautiful place. Thanks for your comment!
Al
I do not know why but i so get your videos posts - keep it up.
Oh good! We must be in the same level 😬
Poor Blue he must of seen Eddie The Eagle n TV and thought I’ll try that ! Love the content as always and Blue’s antics. 👍👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️🏕⛺️🏕👍
That was the third time he did it too! Twice on his own then I made him do it for the camera. Next time I’ll build him a ramp! Thanks dude!

Thanks mate. I don’t know Dean Read but who knows.
You are amazing 👏
Such a great channel man
Cheers dude👊

Hahaha I love it! Glad you like my channel and I’m glad you’re with me from the start for my UA-cam journey! Dad is cool!!!
Enjoy the sushi.
Great routes and video, I’m still trying to get my blue mearle to sleep as well as blue does
My dog sleeps as well as I do! But we do plenty to tire us out which helps. Thanks for your feedback!

Totally the best dogs! Blue is an awesome companion for adventures and can go anywhere I can.
Thats an awesome camp spot, going down lakes next week so i think ill check it out. Cheers mate.
It truly was. There is a pitch or two about 50m further down too. Perfect for the sunrise.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE excellent, cheers bud.
Great vid, just subbed, looking forward to more of your adventures
Welcome! Plenty of vids for you to watch and plenty more to come. Thanks!!!
Love everything about this channel, even when Blue side-eyes you with that WTF expression.
😂😂😂 yes I think he thinks I’m either crazy or more likely embarrassing!

I just missed you! Thanks Dave! As you know it’s just an amazing feeling to be outside in our beautiful world. I love it!
Brilliant!
Thanks!
Cracking video mate
Thanks again!!!!
Seeing the Sun rise on a new day is special and you captured a stunner there. How do you rate the Abisko?
Blue is a beautiful looking dog and looks completely at home on the Fells.
ATB.
Mick.
It was an amazing morning! So calm. I love my tent and I did a review in another video if you haven’t seen it?!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I hadn't realised that you have previously recorded the set up of the tent. I watched it and it certainly looks the business.🙂👍
It works well for me!
Love your videos x
Thanks Beti! You’re probably one of my only female subscribers! (Assumption you’re female). You are precious!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I have the same tent and a 'Blue' ..but a 'Jess' version. Love going feral in the Lakes! Keep the videos coming, they are a treat to watch x
Kind words ☺️. Dogs are a great companion camping out. He’s extra eyes and ears for me and growls to let me know if anything is about.
I love these videos and you have now got me hooked on the outdoors again and with Blue. What make is the quick opening knife?
Oh that makes me happy! Get back out 😬. The knife is a ‘buck’ knife which I think I paid £20 for it although I think it retails at £40. It has a bottle opener on it too so a handy knife at a BBQ.
No words.
Great vid ,,that’s a cool looking waterproof jacket,,do you rate it,where’s it from,and how much??
It’s the OMM (original mountain marathon) kamleika jacket (older style). It’s awesome for running as it’s 4 way stretch. Not the best mountain waterproof but good lightweight one for a ‘just in case’. They cost loads but I bought it for £85 in a sale.

Hey 👋 did you park at the large car park in glenridding? Are you okay overnight there? Many thanks 🙌
I didn’t park there I parked road side out of town. I’m not sure you can overnight in that car park. I would have thought so. Over winter there is more parking available I think.
Thanks.
Please could you tell me what type of tent you are using in this video cheers David
Look at my storm videos when I’m using this tent. I test it to the max. It’s the Fjallraven Abisko lite 1. 👍👍👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE thank you so much I love watching your videos but please next time can you cook a curry lol
love your channel
Oh good! Always happy for the ladies to join in as it’s so male dominated. Thank you. 😊
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Your more than welcome ,you have a lovely channel.stay safe.
Great vid. Fab dog. What breed? And what brand are the lightweight waterproof over mittens?
He’s a border collie sheep dog (trained on the sheep too). The mittens are Salomon which I carry for wet weather to go over my wind stopper gloves to keep them dry.
Thanks mate!
awesome video, what camera do you use?
Thank you. Just my phone currently but I need something better. I’ve looked at several but they do cost a lot.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE your phone seems to be good tho, do you use a stabiliser at all?
Red Tarn at the start
Yes it was my 2nd night out after camping at red tarn in about -6 to -8 degrees.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Love those mountains, BTW you're never too far away from a comfortable B&B, but hey why do I watch the wild camping? I have an Oru folding kayak that I'm going to put on every Tarn in those mountains
😂 wild camping costs less.

Sounds like you need some fresh country air! Get outside and enjoy it! Good fella!
The porn track intro music made me chuckle.
I think you had two tabs open mate 😂.
It cost me £171 from GoOutdoors
