Not a well known fact - I built those cairns on Potter's Fell 1 and 2, as when I walked them, there were no cairns. So I collected whatever rocks I could find and put them on the summits 😂 Keith was with me too, it was his walk, we crossed that same bogland 😅 We parked in same spot too, the bridge is called Barley Bridge
I remember you all did this walk when Keith started the outliers, He was telling me about the boat house on the fishing lake, Good that you've put something on the potters fells so there's some sort of marker, nothing worse than it being a bit of grass 😂 its a decent walk tbf if you haven't got a dog and go the right way 😅 could even just do the 2 main ones and avoid the potters and the bogs, I could see decent paths to leading to both. I was going to do another route straight afterwards from that parking spot but the dog was having non of it, might return on the weekend and do the other 👌
@ did bigland barrow a couple of weeks ago wanted to make a circular walk so made me own route up almost lost the dog in the shoulder height bracken 🤣🤣
Theres been a lot of wall and fence hopping on the outliers so far I have found. Might need to come up with something for the dog. Luckily our dog is only small so I can jump over with him under my arm. I still think most of the outliers are harder than the most of the 214 seriously. Still worth it though
Is there any routes you have done that are a bad headache? I'm probably going to leave her behind for some as its not as simple, wave got a Julius harness with a handle but I tested it today and its still really awkward. I might just plan future ones with my own drawn out maps on the GPS so I can avoid anything bad, There a really good challenge and well worth doing as you say
farmers have to now lock the gates to prevent their stock and equipment being stolen. most dog walkers now have the dog harness with a handle to help to lift them over the walls and stiles
Nice one Barry, didn't realise you could buy a harness with handles attached, worth me looking into for future walks, the locks make sense now, always wondered what the idea was, I wouldn't of thought much theft goes on down in the lake district either but something else I wasn't aware of 👍
She's a bit of a weird size, smallish but long and quite heavy, Dom doesn't like picking her up either so its a pain trying to pass her over walls, otherwise I would 😅
Majestic scenery man, area looks and feels so enjoyable! Love it
Apart from getting lost I really liked it mate, another one for the memories 😃

Keep up with your videos enjoying them
Farmer was a man United fan 😊
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Is your dog not small enough to just pass over the wall between you? That’s what most people do, unless they are physically too big!🙂
