I’ve got covid so I’m working my way through all your videos 🤒 impressive effort this like! We camped up there on Knott, it’s so quiet up there, think we saw two people all the time we were there!
Yeah, the northern lakes are great because they are so quiet. Not quite as spectacular but great all the same. Literally just had Covid. Came back from that last camp and tested +ve the very next day. Literally climbing the walls all last week. Drives me mad when I can’t get out on my bike or run for a full week. Good excuse to binge on RUclips though. 📺
That’s some going Steve, bet ya legs were hurting after that, last time a put on a jog coming down Skiddaw it killed my knees 🤣, great lightweight setup👌, always love seeing the orange Mld⛺️, should of ditched a few bits of kit on ya dad, for when yooze met up 🤣 lighten the load a bit more, spot on mate, atb Mick 👍
Looks great fun! I have a few days running, with a wild camp, lined up on Exmoor from tomorrow - can't wait. Nice to see you making the effort and "pairing" your meal with the finest cherry vintage. I've found I prefer Expedition Foods to many of the other dehydrated brands - maybe worth checking out their orange packets.
Now thats going to get you as fit as a fiddle as they say. Super lightweight kit and you had everything too. Weather was bang on. Looking forward to the next one as always.
That's some going mate up & around the skiddaw range..those uldale fells over the back are lovely & quiet & very similar to the howgills nice grassy flat topped hills great for camping..7kg ain't bad for a summer set up..I'm waiting on my new atom+ 35 arriving as I'm doing the cumbria way with Paul in June & that's what I'm aiming for around 7kg..Great stuff mate..Andy..
Thanks Andy. Yeah, 7kg including food and water wasn’t too bad. Certainly didn’t feel heavy. Once I was coming down off Bakestall it was a real grind. I might have to go back with fresh legs to enjoy the area more. Thanks for commenting mate. All the best 👍
Great video again Stephen. Scenery is fantastic up there. It’s obvious that the Adventure Foods dehydrated meals developer didn’t do level 1 in Professional cookery at Gateshead College. Peas in pasta? Liz will be putting peas in her flapjack next! Top work and good luck with the preparation for the challenge.
@@belowaveragewildcamper Glad you liked it, it was my first ever bivy but really enjoyed it . Although with your lightweight setup you are not far off bivving 😆
Respect, that's some trip. Love the idea of fast and light but I'm more slow and light. Nice setup and equipment.
Thanks Graham. Loved your latest video. It’s like a local history lesson. All
The best mate 🙏
@@belowaveragewildcamper Thank you very much, been enjoying watching your vids as well 👍

Great days work. You made that look easy.
Thank you. The first bit was ok, after Bakestall it was hard graft 🥵
Thanks for commenting 🙏
Great going, it's nice and quiet in the northern fells, good luck with the tour
I wish I could lose 4 stone and have a go myself😂
Once I passed Skiddaw I never saw another soul Mark.
Thanks for watching and commenting. All the best mate 👍
Another good video mate. Fast packing looks very fun
It was fun up until about 15 miles, after that it was a game of attrition 🤣
Thanks for watching mate 🙏
@@belowaveragewildcamper haha great fitness though mate. The hills make you so strong I've found
Nice one Steve. Look after those knees.
Cheers Pete. My knees are champion…….. for now 😬

Nice one! Great Calva nearly broke me with the route we chose. Can I ask you what quilt you use?
Yeah, Great Calva was the point I start flagging John.
It’s an Enlightened Equipment Enigma.
Thanks for watching and commenting mate. 🙏
@@belowaveragewildcamper cheers mate.
Looked fantastic except for peas in Bolognese !!! 🤢
🤣 yeah, although they didn’t taste too out of place.
Enjoyed your latest bivy video mate. I’ve never done that. 🙏
