    A classic Wainwright hike. Those views looked absolutely stunning. There's no better place than the Lake District on a day like that. Keep up the great work, Alex!

    Great video! I was up there last week but I fell just before Levers Water & had to come down. Your video makes me want to go back!

    Great video Alex. I hope you’ve both settled in well, to one of the worlds most stunning places.The Lakes in Winter, Spring, Summer or Autumn are absolutely captivating! It’s my home away from home. We had beautiful weather in late October, we’ve been going as a family every October for the last 18 years!

      Thank you very much Simon 😊 very glad to hear you had some good weather, it’s been VERY wet here the past few weeks, all worth it for that one sunny day in the fells though 😊

    A lovely watch. It seems you're going to be very busy walking in Lakeland. I'm so jealous! Thank you for creating and sharing

    I just got same type pack fastback love it montane trailblazer 25l wider harness and fit so much nicer on your back than heavy pack also after 40 years wearing big old 4 season boots gore tex trail runners are bliss just got watch your footing more but so light on feet

    • @alexcripps.outdoors
      @alexcripps.outdoors  Месяц назад

      Yes I completely agree, I love using the fast packing bags, sit really nice and snug to the body and I quite often forget I’m even carrying it! I also wear trail runners on nearly all of my hikes, unless doing something more technical like a scramble. Feet feel so much fresher, just have to accept the fact that they’re probably going to get wet

    Super video Alex, and what weather and views! 😀 Hope the fridge arrived OK. Looking forward to some great videos from the Lakes. Was that a Rab jacket you were wearing on this hike?

    • @alexcripps.outdoors
      @alexcripps.outdoors  Месяц назад

      Thank you very much Peter! Yes it was a Rab jacket, it’s called the Rab Borealis, great as a wind stopper to take the chill off!

    Wow, what perfect weather you had on that one Alex. Amazing views in all directions! It is good to hear you are settling into your new house. I really like the idea of the Yorkshire three peaks for a video. Would you try and do it within the 12 hours challenge time? I am pretty sure you would do it in less than 11 hours tbh! Great video and really looking forward to the next one!

    • @alexcripps.outdoors
      @alexcripps.outdoors  Месяц назад

      Thank you very much Greg 😊 I’d love to try tackle it in less than 12 hours, I really fancy attempting it in winter so I’d better be under 12 otherwise the head torch might run out of batteries 😂
