  • As I have just become a OAP, why not pick one of the highest and wildest places to wildcamp in the Peak District, the northern edge of Kinder Scout.
    This wildcamp is all about the fantastic scenery and rugged terrain of the northern edge, and by using my drone I hope to show it off in all its beauty.

    When the buzz and bleep world wearies me; and I yearn for respite.
    I find solace in a walk alone, on the barren Moorland height.
    No flowered glades or pasture. No bright birdsong filled trees.
    Yet in it’s wild majestic starkness; more beautiful than these.
    Best of all are the rainy days, when the whitened clouds hang low:
    Pale orange sunlight, tinting the hills, with a gentle, heavenly glow.
    Few are those, who venture, on such days to higher ground.
    As sweet nature softly sighs, when there’s no one else around.
    High solitude is a thing to bless, it calms the heart and mind.
    Any wanderer one may meet, is a soul mate of your kind.
    Some may briefly sit and share the hot fluid from a flask.
    But conversation is always slim. No questions there to ask.
    Mostly, another encountered, will pass by, with a smile and a nod.
    And you know that they wish to be alone; as you are with your God.
    For whatever God may be or not, on the lofty wasteland place:
    Here is splendour. Here is glory. Here is the stillness of true grace.
    Long may you continue to continue Mr Patrick, you're an inspiration to all of us .

The biggest isue on the nothern side of Kinder is in emergency there is no phone signal. Interestly I only saw 2 people on the northern edge and around 200 on the southern edge.

    Thanks very much for bringing back some great memories of Kinder and surrounding area.
    We did this wild camping in the 1970s.
    One of the trips we did in winter on the top of Kinder was in a plastic bag ,only one night duecto the condensation.
    My friend Roy and i did it in the snow ,there were no insulation mats then ,we used 12 ,12 inch polystyrene tiles taped together to open into a mat ,very good insulation on the snow.tried the plastic bag twice ,could not overcome the condensation. Better as a bivvy.
    Thanks again for these memories, im there now on the top of Kinder .
    We are both from Sutton Coldfield so 1.5 drive and we are there.
    Also we have done most of the caving up there for many years ,the memories coming back .Knotlowe mjnes ,awesome.
    We are both over 80 now ,but still do walks up there ,but not so long.
    Take care everyone.
    Thanks again for the memories.

    I was up near Hope Cross hammock camping last Friday completely out of sight in the Woods. Put the tarp up then walked all round to check it was out if sight. Only thing was the weather was terrible, never stopped raining and blowing till the early hours. Walked over to Crowden head area with a view to camp for a second night but my usual spot was a bit soggy and I had been up to my knees in a peat bog. So rather than mess my gear up I headed over to Jacobs Ladder then Edale Station I'm 73 next week so I was ready for home by then.
    Despite the weather it was very busy on Kinder.

    You remind me of my dad. he used to go all over the moors around Manchester and often took me with him. he kept going all the way until he was 72 and died of cancer. some of my favorite places are knowl hill and Ashworth valley, Blackstone hedge, and up peel tower way. it is honestly a pleasure watching your videos.. keep it up they are great.

    Just got back in over an hour ago from a Hard Days Trek from Lodge Moor to Derwent Edge via Stanage and what better way to celebrate a 56th Birthday is to watch one of Pat Dickinson's Excellent Videos. Your videos are much more entertaining than some of the utter dross that is on TV at the moment. Keep it up Pat.

    Great video Pat - for me, your best for a long time. But then, it's your first chance to be out wild camping and your wild camping videos are the ones I enjoy the most.
    It's a shame that the messy brigade have given us a bad name and turned the gamekeepers against us once more. As long as we leave no trace we do no harm to their land or the environment.
    Camp on Pat!

    I'm just 18 months behind you Pat but if I can keep doing it like you I'll be happy. It's a shame we can't wild camp in England but to be honest I would hate to think what some places would end up like if we could, some folk just don't give a damn. The mantra "leave no trace" falls on deaf ears for some. Pat Dickinson, the legend of Sheffield.

    Your videos Patrick are the only ones I never fast forward, just watching the whole thing, as intended, from start to finish.
    It would be cool to see "behind the scene" video - what does it actually takes to make such an awesome story, besides the awesome story itself... gear, your thinking process what to film, how to film, what works for you, what doesn't, production challenges, post-production workflow, etc.
    Thanks again. I really enjoyed it. Bless you. Stay well and hope to see you soon again

    Been up kinder twice in a week. In love with the beauty of the place and there's that much to see I keep getting lost😂 ended up away a few miles from Edale in a farmers field with with my son. The hike was one of the best days I've ever had. My son and I were blown away. Your videos are helping give me the confidence to get my tent up there and the therapeutic northern accent accompanied by lots of rain drops makes for relaxing bed time viewing. Very well produced and thoroughly entertaining. Keep up the good work😎
