A Night In A Mountain Cave | This Trip Went Wrong! - Cnicht Part 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2021
- I set out to beautiful Cnicht all excited for the adventure ahead, with no idea how challenging it was going to be. This trip was hard! The paths on the OS map that I’d planned my route by didn’t actually exist (to be fair, I should know that the OS maps tell fibs by now!) So, I made my way through an evergreen forest full of blow-downs, crossed streams, got engulfed by shoulder-deep ferns and threw myself and my gear over a high wall. All before being greeted with a lot of pathless, ankle-breaking terrain on Yr Arddu. I lost my drone - likely it fell out of my waist bag during one of the many map checks that I had to do to navigate the crazy terrain. I worried that I wasn’t going to make the cave before nightfall, but I did find it in the end and have a lovely and cosy night there.
Cnicht is known by some as the 'Welsh Matterhorn', due to its stunning pyramid shape - gorgeous isn't it! :D
See you in part two: • I BAILED! Tick Nightma... for more things going wrong haha! And my first time bailing on a camp since I started making these videos 1 year ago

#WildCamping #Cave #Cnicht #Adventure #Hiking
As a landowner of grazing land and forestry in Snowdonia careful considerate campers like Claire are welcome because they always leave no trace. In a way we would prefer we dont know they had ever been camping. Open moorland above the high wa[[ and fence lines are often subject to common grazing rights and are open under the Right to Roam to travel on. Subtle and unobtrusive camping is never a problem and folk I see always adhere to this. We dont want money, just take care of yourselves and your camping site so others can enjoy.
Nice one some respect there thanks , we aren't all tools 😂❤
On her way up she encountered a substantial stone wall apparently in the middle of nowhere. Who would have built the wall, when and why?
@@joesmith323 The Prydyn, no doubt XD
Smart comment!!!
We scattered the ashes of a very dear friend and fellow hill walking enthusiast from the summit of Cnicht not so long ago. She was so kind and full of life until being taken too young by cancer. She would have loved your videos and passion for sharing the outdoors. I hope she was good company to spend the night with!
Hi Lyra, I'm so sorry about your friend 💚 What a beautiful place she's resting in now, I could have stared at the clouds flowing over that lil mountain all day. She was indeed hehe, I hope she didn't mind my trundling about the place. Much love
What a great place to be laid to rest. Should would have been honored to be back in nature I am sure.
I am sorry for your loss. I hope to be so lucky with my final resting place, one day ❤
I like that everyone who visits this cave leaves it as clean as they found it.
As someone who lives in Wales I just wanted to say that I saw some bravery early on in this video. Conditions and terrain can be pretty tough here and you just went for it and were confident in your nav. I'm chuffed as nuts to see people coming to Wales and testing themselves, you did and awesome job. Keep up the good work and we'll all keep watching. Big love from Wales 🏴 🙂
Adam
This is the sort of adventure you enjoy much more afterwards, over the years, as you remember and tell the story to others. Loved it!
Hi Mally, haha yes, I'm starting to warm to it a week later.. not so much what happens next in part 2 😰 glad you liked it and thanks for watching :D
These challenging trips really make us who we are :). This reminds me of the canoe trip I planned that quickly turned into a bushwhack to get out. It was one of the best trips of my life.
@@maxb482 it sounds adventurous as hell 😍
@@WildBeare, it was on the John Day River in the high desert of Oregon, USA. It was the best worst trip of my life.
Keeping being awesome!
Not the houghton Redfearns??? r u?

― Bob Ross
At last someone showing the real hassle it can be.
To many showing how easy it can be.
Yehhh this one felt like a real hassle, probably because I wasn't expecting it. I was expecting a path but needed my crazy-terrain head on and would have allowed more time before nightfall if I had known what I was wandering into. You never know what you're gonna get 👀
@@WildBeare
Every cloud, your adoring fans wish to club togather and buy you a new helicopter.
Very touching.
^ This 100%. There is a risk of unprepared people watching glamourised hiking videos and thinking ‘how hard can it be’?
I’ve been binge watching your videos for the last week, enjoying your trips to some truly beautiful places.
You’re so lovely to watch on these adventures, because even when the going is tough your enthusiasm and love of nature still shine through.
Honestly, even if I’ve had a rubbish day, I feel better having watched these. Thank you Claire!
Hi Steve, aw yay that's so lovely to hear, thank you 🥰 yes my heart is with the wild places 💚 even though they kick my ass sometimes haha! Thanks for watching & have a lovely eve :) Claire
We’ve all had days like this, these are the ones we remember the most and feel much pride in.
Hi Claire, great video and a perfect example of Type 2 fun that you will remember for a long time! If you want to avoid some of the issues you had early on, there are some useful cues that can be taken from the map. An important thing to know is that the green dashed line you are pointing to at 9:38 is only the public right of way, i.e. the legal designation - for actual paths there usually needs to be a black dashed line like the one going over Cnicht summit. On the OS map legend it usually says something like 'rights of way may not be well defined on the ground'. Where both green and black are on top of each other (like the path coming up from Gelli-Iago just to the north of where you started) the path is normally good - although not guaranteed! Some green 'rights of way only' lines without the black dashes can still be good paths, but some - particularly those that stop in the middle of nowhere like the one on Yr Arddu - are often red herrings as you found out. Finally your pencil line at 9:38 that follows the high ground north from Yr Arddu is not a path either - if you check the legend these dotted black routes are parish boundaries. Sometimes paths have formed on them because walkers have mistaken them for paths but not always. Anyway hope this helps you when planning more days out! :)
I can’t get over how much this country looks like parts of coastal Northern California in the winter. That includes the ticks.
We hate the ticks!!! ❤ x
What a neat little “Nook” that you found for the night! If the weather was really extreme , the cave would be an ideal shelter!
Claire, you are such an inspiration to me. You have so much courage and confidence to do what you do and go to the beautiful places to share with each one of us. I hope you keep doing what you're doing and never get tired of the beautiful countryside you share with us. Be proud of yourself and never let anyone tell you that you can't do it. Be safe and enjoy your beautiful countryside.
The sparklies on the ceiling rock were iron pyrites or 'Fool's Gold'. Great video! Beautiful scenery. I have been in so many similar situations when you go off piste and the path disappears, mostly on Dartmoor or Scotland. Hours of trying to traverse bogs!
I am so thankful I found your channel. This is wholesome and inspiring content.
You are such an amazing trooper! You didn't once think of turning back. My hat's off to you. As soon as the hard walk was over you were calm and happy. You are an inspiration. Cheers! From Florida!
My god. You have literally climbed under and over to bring us this fantastic video. You truly are a hero. Thank you for sharing your experience 😊 🙏
Aw thanks, so glad you liked it! Certainly was an adventure this one haha
@@WildBeare yes it was. Your videos are very inspiring. It goes to show that when you set your mind on something. You can achieve your goal.
@@wildwoodcamp2907 thank you 🥰 yehh I was glad to get the night in the cave and it was worth the effort, the goal in the next video was not achieved though 😄
What a wonderful adventure!!!!!
Imagine being tasked to build that stone wall back in the day.
We’ve all had that day in the mountains, but you definitely come out the otherwise stronger and wiser. Find your videos very calming, natural and honest.
That cave: Take the left lower easy fork (where the main path from Croesor turns right up Cnicht) for 45 mins up towards the col from where Snowdon may be viewed. Before reaching the shallow lake, turn a short left and the cave is on your right after no more than 5 mins. The cave is large enough for 1 person, or 2 if you like it cosy.
Love it. When we went in the bush we did beef jerky and cup a noodles. We would crush the noodles and put it in a ziplock bag to save weight. Then boil water and put in the bag with some jerky ( to soften the jerky) use the cup to hold the bag so no burnt hands and no clean up.
You are an incredible Badass!!!! I love your can-do attitude and down to earth approach to wilderness adventure. You are an inspiration and your wisdom and guidance are relevant and on point. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. You are a breath of fresh air in a turbulent world. I salute you!!
Bloody hell Claire you are totally hardcore, you amaze me with your positive attitude - no matter what happens you always have a smile on your face and take the positives from it. That cave looked soooooooo awesome, just watching that part of the video made me feel really relaxed and as for waking up to a view like that….. Wow, just wow 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Even with problems that you ran into, you still show the type of person you are. You have a great outlook, positive attitude, and you don’t call it quits when the going gets tough. Your pleasant manner doesn’t change no matter what, that’s the best part of your videos for me. Take care.
Wow....I salute you! You are a machine trekking through that wood, over those walls & through the shoulder high fern 👏👏. Great resilience & fair play you held it when deep down you must of been so p*ssed off😤 about your drone. As ever another epic adventure & thanks for sharing. Just going to watch part 2 before i crack on for the day.
OMG! Another awesome trek with so much dangerous adventure! So courageous, and fascinating! I am very impressed with your calm. Thanks for sharing!
Coming back to your channel after a pause and delightful as ever. Your sense of humility and being at one with the environment is so serene to watch. Thanks for bringing us along.
Thanks for sharing your adventures Claire despite a few setbacks you still remain upbeat!👍
The land of Albion is very beautiful. Thank for the adventure and most of all, your positivity. You give me hope that there's real women in this world 🌎 like you.
New sub! Very impressed with all your effort and your presentation skills and your bravery to go into the wilderness alone! Well done girl! Impressed!!!
Excellent adventure and honesty - what a wonderful girl
A place I haven't been back to in 15 years. Lovely to see it again. Shame you had a few setbacks on this adventure, but it creates challenges in their own right and overcoming those is a good learning process.
It's an absolutely gorgeous mountain isn't it! I'll be back here.. unfinished business.. but I'll be doing the route up from Croesor so as to hopefully avoid the mess I got myself into on this trip haha. It is indeed a great learning process :) thanks for watching Steve :)
Hoping in part 2 to see that you found the drone. Had days like this, hard slogs, asking myself why. Now I look back at them in fondness, great stuff, thanks.
You are such an inspiration. Absolutely adore your personality and how you shine on these adventures. You definitely are a big reason that I've been going on more overnight adventures lately
That looks like a brilliant place to explore.
Looking forward to episode 2 👍
Thank you for the first year, looking forward to many, many more adventures
Hi Claire, wow what a wonderful video, your content is so inspirational. You demonstrated perfectly a golden rule when in the wild, don’t panic. I love what you do, one of your wild ones. Grant
As soon as I heard the first whinge I started smiling. This was going to be a hard one but the sense of achievement you get from when you overcome
the elements is just something else . Tucked up in the dry in that wonderful cave, snug as a bug in a rug ,it was worth it. You don't plan
adventures like that, they just happen & you dealt with it. Brilliant 😌
Hi Chris, glad you enjoyed my wingeing 😄 yes I'm starting to look on it fondly now that it's been a while.. I did love the night in that cosy cave :) not what happens next in part 2 though, that was just nasty haha!
@@WildBeare Hi, Looking forward to it, but I would put money on it that you still end up with a smile from one side of you face to the other, 😀😀
Obsessed with your videos! I'm glad you shown the good the bad and the ugly. 💕
Love your positive attitude, fearless disposition and love of nature. Really enjoying your videos. ✨🙏✨
Had some hikes like this. Wading through ferns, bracken and things saps strength, scratches you and makes you worried about ticks. Good that you came out of it ok. The tough ones make you appreciate the easier ones more I think.
Deffo! It's funny I love a mad pathless route when I'm anticipating it but I wasn't expecting it on this one and it threw me a bit! Just found it really draining and I managed to convince myself I was gonna get lost and not make it to the cave before dark, but it was fine in the end. Ooo yeh.. wait & see what happens in part 2 next week though 😑 Thanks for watching Chris :D have a lovely eve
@@WildBeare Thanks! Also I've got that hike planned out in OSMaps now so if the weathers nice over the next few weeks I'll go. If I find a lonely drone I'll let you know :)
I really felt for you on this, me and Charlotte had a similar experience coming down from Y Garn whilst hiking the Snowdonia way mountain route 🙈 no path, waist high ferns etc .. crazy! Hats off to you for pushing through x
Heyy Kerry! Aw man they're tough when they're like this aren't they! I actually love a bit of crazy terrain when I'm expecting it & prepared, this one caught me off guard a bit.. nice lil adventure though hehe. Thanks and hope you're good :D 💚
Looked beautiful can’t wait for the next one. Have fun stay safe.
Wow love your videos. No matter the weather or the terrain you have always got a big smile on your face
I've had trek experiences like this one you had, where you are drained physically and mentally. The North Coast Trail in British Columbia for me was one that this video made me think of. Great positive attitude, even with adversity. Bushwhacking and trail-blazing definitely adds to it! Isn't it crazy that after that climb, you come up on that stone fence on the side of that mountain. Someone went up there and built that thing; so crazy to think, some shepherd hundreds of years ago (?) did that.
It is totally crazy! I always wonder about those little stone walls trailing across the high parts of mountains.. who built them, what were they for etc. This one was certainly the tallest I've come across on my travels so far, that shepherd hundreds of years ago must have been pretty serious about containing his massive tall sheep haha. Thank you, this one was draining like you say, I just wasn't expecting it and would have allowed myself more time before sunset if I'd have known what it was gonna be like. But worth it in the end. I just googled that trail - looks amazing!! 😍 Thanks for watching Andrew! And have a lovely eve :)
@@WildBeare So true, that was one dedicated shepherd or wall-maker! NCT is beautiful, wolves and all. If you add that to your adventure itinerary and need a sherpa/guide/wolf-bait, just give me a week's notice! Thanks for sharing all your journeys Claire :)
Hey Claire. loving the videos. keep em coming. Like many others I like your honest story telling...on the subject of your drone: you should look at getting a tile tracker to attach to it if you get a replacement.
The harder the trail the more amazing the cave. . Beautiful country and im glad that big rock didn't squish ya.
It’s great to see people doing things like this as it definitely takes bottle to do. 👍
You really are a total badass… this is unreal! Makes me wanna get out on those hills (but from the Croesor side like I said on Instagram!)
The sparkly gold looking stuff in the cave could be pyrite (also known as fools gold). Quite common across Snowdonia…
Haha thanks Greg 😄 yeh Croesor side for me next time for sure haha, hope you get out there soon! Ohh really, I wasn't sure, it was very pretty 🌟 Thanks for watching and have a lovely eve :D
Claire no lie about this, 2 youtuber I know have done this get a gofundme < for a new drone. And put your link out to your fans. If every person give you £2 think how much you would get towards a new one. It’s not begging people love your content and I’m sure people would agree to this. X
Claire knows full-well subscribers and viewers hate a Beg! 😑
Yep, was thinking the same. I will put money in
Aw thanks Stevo, I'm not really into all that though. I put the money I earn from these videos back into the channel, this month a lot of it went on a new drone, tis the way it goes. Just means the Garmin on my shopping list is gonna have to wait a bit longer haha
@@steelydan473 aw thank you Dan, that's really kind of you but I don't do all that, droney has been replaced now :)
@@WildBeare yeah totally get where your coming from as it seems cheeky but we all love your content, you know another thing, perhaps leave a PayPal link in your description then it’s people’s choice either way if they want to give you anything. It all goes back to the channel either way.
I mentioned to you about putting your videos on premieres people can also give you super chat donations, try it, what you got to loose and it’s NOT in any way shape or form begging 😂 xx
Very cool to find a cave that's far enough in the wild it hasn't been vandalized. The known caves in my area are protected sites. Not only for bat hibernation in the winter, but they also served as burial sites. You can see human bones encased within the mineral structures.
Intrepid traveler! Fascinating excursion. Love all your videos. Thanks for taking us along.
As people today get older, I doubt anyone will recall a particular video game they played, however the memories of camping in the wild will stay with those who venture outdoors for a lifetime. I loved your video, that cave looked so cosy.
As a hiker that's covered the French Alps to Wales and back, I feel your pain for when it's bad weather, and also having antibiotics for tick bites some year's back 🤦♂️ how did you lose the drone, was a zip undone? Hope it wasn't to expensive, but take pride in what you do and keep up the good work 👍
Wow A year on and your inspiration to many. You go girl 😘
Awesome been looking forwards to this all day ❤️
Awesome!! I’m looking forward to part 2!
I appreciate the realness you bring to your channel. Happy I found this gem. Thank you
Wonderful video Claire despite the setbacks. You’re upbeat attitude and love of nature is very inspiring 🤗
You've got some wonderful determination 👏 Claire, very enjoyable experience to watch! Love that cave, stay safe 🤗
ANOTHER SPLENDED ADVENTURE 👍. THANKS FOR SHARING 💪
Thank you for taking me with you, even though its through the lens , incredibly beautiful sights and sounds 💛
Fantastic, what determination.
That was a good workout. Excellent!
With nature, we are learning humility in it. It's as beautiful as nature.
An awesome cave Claire, you certainly have grit, perseverance, strength of mind and body, no quit attitude. Amazing country side
Once again outstanding
Too much fun Claire! great stuff!
Fabulous video. The honesty resonates. I've had moments when the weather is bad, visibility is zero, or the scramble is sketchy and you question yourself at a basic level. I've embraced those moments at the time and then reflected later and never once regretted having that experience. Looking forward to part 2
Hi Rich, yep I agree, I've never had a trip that I regret, I've warmed to this one already (being well rested & dry sure helps look back on it fondly haha) It's what happened the next day that was a bit much for me! Thank you for watching and have a lovely eve :D Claire
What an adventure, all the ups and downs. Well done.😎👍😊
The bad days are as important as the good days, overcoming the obstacles, dealing with the negative, and accepting that something isn't working out, it's where you learn most of your skills, it's a moulding process. Your doing great and the vids are really good 👍
I love these trips, legs giving in, pack is heavy and terrain is unforgiving. it makes taking your boots off and climbing in your bag so much better
😯😁 Oooosh! Clare that Was epic and ventured with your usual upbeat and determined way, no matter what.. Can't wait for part 2 👍👍👍
Great effort. Beautiful country.
Well done against the odds. Looking forward to part two.
You are such an inspiration love all you do be safe god bless
Well done on 1 year on RUclips Claire!! Well done on that trek,as well!! Keep the videos coming, you always make me smile and feel inspired!! Nite nite 😴
What a awesome little adventure you have had there Claire and that cave looks absolutely amazing Claire Lovely❤👍👌🙄🙂❤
Thanks Simon, yep a proper lil adventure this one hehe, loved the cosy cave 💚
Thanks for the video your definitely having an adventure !! Stay safe and take care !!
I’ve watched quite a few of your posts now and thoroughly enjoyed them all. I thought it was only me that had the odd trip go wrong! Thanks for sharing and keep up the fabulous work :-)
Days like that make the good ones even better. Spot on as usual Claire
wow,nice adventure....
That was a great video and love the view of the montain.. Gorgeous.. So can wait for you're next aventure......
Just recently started to watch your adventures and have to say you're an inspiration! I spent many years travelling alone most of the time,around England, as never been abroad before! At the time it feels like youre the only person out there! I myself got my buzz from knowing that,I used to do Facebook blogs and stuff but kind of lost the reason I was out there in the first place,so personally I got more out of it knowing I was alone without an audience..had some of the best days of my life and met some truly amazing peaple,just like yourself! Rock on girl and keep being free! Rob from London.
I really appreciate seeing videos like this where it's not all perfect!
I did three two day walking / camping trips this summer. Each time I loved the walking on day one, then had a bad camping setup for one reason or another and couldn't really sleep properly. So each time I set off ridiculously early the next morning, got soaking wet boots from dewy grass, and ended up tired, grumpy, with sore feet and having a completely sucky time of it on day two. I couldn't wait to get home / to the pub and for the walk to be over.
I still want to do it again though.
i keep hoping that for once in life everything went according to plan,68yrs old and still camping,nothing goes as planned but isn,t it great? love your work kiddo
Great work keepin' on keepin' on! We love your videos!
Well done! Love your adventures x
Excellent video, what a great workout and such a fun trip. Love your content.
what a great adventure! I think it's great what you do and that you have so much courage and sleep alone in a cave. Respect! Certainly not very many dare to do it. I'm looking forward to the second part
Wow that was tuff going you did really well and what a great camp loving the footage so far cant wait for part 2 💪💪👍🏴
Subscribing just for this ruddy effort I know lots of blokes that would have given up.jesus you have my respect after watching that effort ruddy well done .
Hooo boy that’s a rough start! But what a beautiful spot. Thanks so much!
I love who you are and what you do. We have the same inspirations. These are fantastic moments that you share with us.
Brilliant 💚
Another superb video. You capture the highs and lows, worts n' all in your beautiful productions. While maintaining an infectious smile and zest for appreciating life and Nature. Brilliant 👏
A positive end to a difficult day, another wonderful vid, thanks for chilling our lives. 😎💙🏴
thank you for this next amazing adventure with you ...🤗
One of the wonderful and most powerful things you do to make your videos better than the rest, is your use of music. Whilst watching (and enjoying) I noticed that the chosen music really did enhance your mood changes. That was excellent. And you make it magically sound like you're only talking to me. Which of course you are. Long may you reign as Qween Of The Wild. I'm in total admiration.
Huge hugs, and be safe, Dave in Yorkshire.
Once again I am impressed.
The way you are dealing the problems on your way to wilderness and alone
Not stepping back and just keep going
Hats off
