    That was a canny long walk mind but a classic indeed and you got lucky with the weather again, giving great views. I think I have only once had a clear summit once on Helvellyn, always seem to get mist buts it's always a great feeling getting there. I never enjoy coming down Swirral Edge and met a lad coming up with a mountain bike over his shoulder once 😳. I got up Catstye Cam for the first time this year and loved the view from there, lucky enough on a clear day too. Great hike, with great views on a brilliant day, it does not get much better than that! Cheers Alan

    Thanks Graham, just the excuse i needed to have an early dinner from work and watch another great vid! Helvellyn via Striding edge is an absolute classic. I've done it quite a few times now but always go at the crack of dawn to avoid the crowds and also to be back at the Travellers Rest for Midday when it opens for a well earnt Pint of Helvellyn Gold. The perfect day! hopefully see you out there one day.

    Hi Graham, nice little vid as usual, boy you were lucky to avoid the rabble. I did Striding Edge a couple of years back in much the same conditions but on my own, with all of that excitement and adrenaline, I do hope you didn't step in anything I may have left behind. My overriding memory is how quick it was over and the steep bit at the end was ok. I returned via Grisedale beck but always kicking myself for not doing Swirral.
    Another time I was stood on the top of Catstye Cam, just me and a miserable git, just lucky I guess!
    Now, can you explain why every time I read Eddie's comments its like he's in the room, lovely accent.

      It's a brilliant accent, wish I could mimmick it better. Thanks Sue for viewing our efforts. Next time Swirral mate.

    I sooooo enjoyed watching this, just like being there with you. Your videos just get better and better. And yet again, great music - the trance number on striding edge was inspired! Best wishes to you all, I'll think of you when I'm in Wasdale next week!
