I first came across your channel when you did Siddaw via Longside Edge. I was blown away with the photography and production values. Many years ago i too once lived the life of a mountain man, but the birth of my son changed things. He is now much older, and the inspiration you give, and i say that with hand on heart, makes me want to get out again to live the life i once lived. Thank you so much for what you have given myself and countless others, the kick up the backside to get back out there.
I thought I had watched pritty much all of your videos. Its my day off and scrolling YT with coffee in bed this came up. For some reason, as soon as it started it felt different. I have not been able to put my finger on what or why all the way through but this video felt magical. I love all of your videos but something about this one, calming music, time of year, the soft light, the area you were walking in ( i’ve done the Garburn Pass down to Windermere but not those specific hills ).. I just dont know what it is. But thank you as always Glenn. I feel very relaxed now. What a stunning piece of viewing entertainment ( as always ) but more so than the others. Have a blessed day. Ange 😃🙏
Gods own country how stunning,I live on the North Cornish coast,I had a accident which left me disabled but I used to walk for miles so I'm quite envious,I go for walks now with people like yourself so thank you ☺
I agree Glenn, that western ridge on the Kentmere horseshoe is breathtaking. I can’t recommend this area enough for anyone thinking of giving it a go. Fantastic video; thanks as always.
Another fantastic Sunday night TV treat. It just gets better each week for me, some stunning views there, and I really love the way your videos have changed over time. Your coming across like your doing everything for us viewers, I think you have finally realised that us fans really appreciate your videos. Just keep doing what your doing and I can see this time next year a big increase in viewers. All the best and thanks.
Another great 45 mins of Sunday night entertainment, I would much rather watch these videos than any walking program on TV. Really looking forward to seeing Finn next week.
Wonderful vlog - beautiful photography and brilliant levels of enthusiasm! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this - really helps all of us Wainwright 'Exiles'.
Just got into your videos. Your love for the countryside is inspirational. Thankyou so much for the time and care and enthusiasm you put into these posts.
I did this route yesterday ❤ it was absolutely breathtaking 🙌🙌 got some lovely photos 📸. Loving your videos. I've spent the last month watching 👀 them all. Brilliant all of them . 👏. Keep up the good work Glen. All the best to u and finn 👊👊🙌🙌👍
I can't thank you enough for your journeys you record for us,The Lakes is deferred my spiritual home and I absolutely love it there. These keep the love coming 😂😊
Absolutely fantastic hike that, views are amazing too. I just love the video's you make, very interesting facts about places too when you point them out or comment on the sights from viewpoints. All your vlogs etc give hours and hours of endless enjoyment, you should be proud of yourself. Love the Lake District always feels like home when I'm there, even though being from Morecambe looking across the Bay to the Mountains is probably why it feels like that. Cheers 😊
Super video and I've not done that ridge yet, so I now have what looks like a perfect and very varied circuit to pull it in. So glad you got the views on the other half of the horsehoe... and I had to chuckle over Mardale Ill Bell being boring. My most boring one was Mungrisdale Common... I'm sure that's Wainwright's practical joke on us all, sending us to a flat pudding of a bog fest! Look forward to more.
Another fantastic walk, this route is definitely something I will be doing. I was on Harter Fell the same day you were and I recognised all the people you passed, a huge shame I didn't bump into you, hopefully another time, I will definitely be doing this route. Best youtube channel by miles
One of the best of your wainwright videos. It had everything superb views and photography plus excellent comments from yourself. Can’t wait for the next one.
Just got home from walking up the lakes sat watching your new video can’t wait to go and try this route the views are unbelievable, another inspirational and stunning video
Another brilliantly narrated vlog attention to detail second to none. Wansfell Pike next hmmm last time I was up there the wind was as bad as I have ever known it in the Lakes took you off your feet literally. 😮
Sour How’s and Sallows. A morning of my life I’ll never get back plodding through bog in the mist with a compass looking for the highest bit. Your walk was much better. Keep them coming!
I squealed when I saw the notification! 😁 YORKIE!!!! 🥰🥰(such a big grin on my face!!) And totally agree on those lovely winding paths meandering up the fellside, they are our fave type too. And if you weren't that keen on sallows, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what your commentary on mungrisdale common will be 😂 another great vid as always! Looking forward to next weeks Wansfell, we really enjoy that one and will be nice to see Finn back too x
Absolute inspiration, such an informative and educational series, I always learn so much from you, fantastic editing, can’t wait to see more of your journey 👌
Been wanting to do this route since you put it out. Managed it today with some friends. Really is a great walk. The ridge is excellent, although slightly hot today.
Was that Sunday the 5th of Feb? We were staying at the Queens Head in Troutbeck but we were walking over High Stile and the skies looked amazing over Buttermere that day.
Hello there, another super vid. Haven't been up there for yonks, but on my first Wainwright round I did the 2 outliers first, and remember trudging between Sour How's, ( yes you got the correct top, but like you I got both to be sure), and the path literally moved, due to the top grassy layer having completely dried out and shrunk away from the lower peaty layer, most disconcerting to put your foot down, and for the path, 20 ft ahead of you 'wobble'. Never seen owt like it since !! Is next week's 'short one' Wansfell Pike/ Barston, another super little traverse 👍
This is hands down my favorite walk you've done! If I could hike anywhere in the entire world, it would be this exact trial. How can you feel homesick for a place you have never been? But my Grandfather was from England and Granma from Ireland so maybe they walked those hills long ago. Anyway thanks so much for the wonderful walk. all the best to you.
I love the fact that Louise and I are sat watching your latest video in our tent at The Quiet Site above Ullswater 😊 I was going to do the standard Kentmere Horseshoe shortly, but I may think about splitting it after watching your films 🙂👍🏼🍻
Bit late in catching this one Glenn but it was well worth the wait .... and some of those views with the light! 👍🙂 Now I quite like Sour How's & Sallows so no dissing them ( Wainwright wasn't always right, you know), I love the walk between the summits and the views from there to where you're going or where you've been are outstanding. Also, I 'll have to add this walk to my to-do listcas it's a while since I've been on Troutbeck Tongue, Sallows & Sour Howes. ATB Rod
Another great video and this one is the first part of my all time favourite Lakeland walks, The Kentmere Horseshoe I've done it so many time I've lost count but never with the Tongue but did spend New Years Eve 2012/13 on the summit of Ill Bell in a good covering of snow and icy ground........very cold but with a hip flask of wee drams 😉🥃 Thank you
Another fantastic video taking us with you on a day in the fells! Really appreciate these video's and looking forward to getting back up there soon. Weather looked just right for me ❤. Will be good to see Finn out again. Missed his action shots lol. Also really good to see the drone footage again but don't upset the other walkers 😂
Did you film this last Sunday, I’m sure I saw you walking up the road with your camera in hand, I’d just done the Red Screes, Middle Dodd route. Great video once again matey.
Our favourite walk, whichwe've done 4 times now. We've only done it anti clockwise and include Thornthwaite Crag, before coming back down for The Tongue. Then t'pub at Limefitt to finish. Love the vid, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for another superlative video. Loved the photo at 40:47 and how you processed it and I wish you would do a video on your digital darkroom techniques ;-) And share your photos on Flickr? Ill Bell was the highlight of last years walks for me. Sat in my BC hoodie watching this 👍very comfortable and warm it is too!
Another great video, a lovely way to finish off the weekend. Really enjoying this series Having watched you for a while now, I ordered one of your t shirts. Nice to know it helps support you a bit, and it’s a cracking t shirt to boot. Quite long in the body, which for a big chap like me is very welcome. I would definitely recommend
Catching up on your Wainwright bagging walks. Funny, I did this exact route but in reverse on my first round. It was a bit warmer though, think it was May 2017
Great video and fantastic route up. Im yet to do the scafells. I think my first time up will be from wasdale. And without doubt il be doing lords rake the more fun way up 😊
Lucky sod! Wish I'd had light like that on my day on the Ill Bell ridge, but it was drab: heavily overcast skies with a glitter beneath from distant rain falling on Windermere. The camera was pointless. This combined three outings for me, or four if you count climbing Sallows/Sour Howes twice which, for some insane reason I did. I was surprised at the line you took on the Tongue, which i tackled straight up the 'prow', a wonderful, delicate quasi-scramble on the afternoon of arrival, just to get the legs working again. Much more fun than the path. Threshet Mouth looked fifty miles away, across a wilderland.
Hi. I did this the other way round last Summer. It was a warm day with Windermere covered in mist till mid morning which looked spectacular from Sallows & Sour Howes. Great video
Great to see you on the fells today! I love the videos, they are a great inspiration when I'm at home in flat East Anglia. However to be controversial it has to be Yorkie Raisin
Thought you may have gone to Mortal Man which I enjoy, will have to give Queens Head a go next time I'm in Troutbeck as looks pleasant. Hope to do Yoke to Froswick this Spring.
Cracking vid mate. Well put together. I’ve hiked dozens of them but very well portrayed and put together. Good example how they should be. Ps. Don’t tell people about all the best places. Ffs. Ha.
Another great video, thanks Glenn. Deffo got this one on the list for the Spring. Love the music as you were approaching the first summit, the Tongue.. what is it?
I often wonder why Wainwright chose the ones he did for his books, and not others. His book, his choice I suppose! It looked a great day, hope you had another good one today with Finn. Looking forward to next week's episode already
He explains how he selected the fells he did in the introduction to his Pictorial Guides. He also did a supplementary book on Outlying Fells which covers some of the lesser fells around Lakeland.
@@nicholasmaycock267 I'll have to give that a read. I usually just use them for ideas for choosing a route rather than reading them fully. I've not got the outliers book but I've got the limestone country one as that covers some of my favourite areas
I’ve noticed you don’t have any advertising on your video, could be a little extra income. Everybody else is doing it. Great video by the way, that’s one heck of a walk.
Just googled it. Kentmere Hall Kentmere Hall is a stunning 14th century tunnel-vaulted pele tower with five-foot thick walls. The turrets, one of the original windows and the spiral staircase remain. The tower was extended in the 15th or 16th century into a residence and is now a farmhouse. The tower sits at the end of the Kentmere valley a most picturesque area of South Lakeland.
I think I would notice if You used someone else's footage. Everyone of You lot I've subscribed to has his own for him typical "handwriting". Anyway, another lovely walk and I preferred this to the TimeTeam live chat.The Prehistory Guys must wait as well. Why do y'all upload at the same time? ( just joking) Take care

Ill Bell's views are spectacular, I like the undulating hills and the light in the distance, looking forward to seeing WansFell and Finn.
Another great 45 mins of Sunday night entertainment, I would much rather watch these videos than any walking program on TV. Really looking forward to seeing Finn next week.
Wonderful vlog - beautiful photography and brilliant levels of enthusiasm! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this - really helps all of us Wainwright 'Exiles'.
That's a big BOOM from me, cheers.
Just got into your videos. Your love for the countryside is inspirational. Thankyou so much for the time and care and enthusiasm you put into these posts.
Superb ! I used to fell race in the lakes many moons ago ! Such poetic beauty we resonate. Thank you so much and keep up the great work !
Those stone walls are amazing. So much time and work. Great video.
You have surpassed yourself with this week’s video. Brilliant! Thanks for taking us with you ⛰️
Another fantastic walking vlog. Great walk.
Walked this on Thursday before a couple nights camping. Thanks for the inspiration 👍🏼
Brilliant, didnt want that to end. Thank you for another awesome film. 👍
I did this route yesterday ❤ it was absolutely breathtaking 🙌🙌 got some lovely photos 📸. Loving your videos. I've spent the last month watching 👀 them all. Brilliant all of them . 👏. Keep up the good work Glen. All the best to u and finn 👊👊🙌🙌👍
Nice to see the views, this was in clag when we did it... Queens head and their famous fish finger baguette 🤣🤭 beautifully shot as always 🥰
Thanks for a lovely video buddy, looking forward to seeing Finn next week 🐾
I can't thank you enough for your journeys you record for us,The Lakes is deferred my spiritual home and I absolutely love it there.

And yet another jaw-dropping adventure. 😊 Although, some spots challenged my vertigo. Thank You for sharing, BC. 💚

Another great epic walk, this season has gone so fast, look forward to next week's 👍🏻
One of the best of your wainwright videos. It had everything superb views and photography plus excellent comments from yourself. Can’t wait for the next one.
Love the detail you give and camera work
Just got home from walking up the lakes sat watching your new video can’t wait to go and try this route the views are unbelievable, another inspirational and stunning video
Another brilliantly narrated vlog attention to detail second to none. Wansfell Pike next hmmm last time I was up there the wind was as bad as I have ever known it in the Lakes took you off your feet literally. 😮
Beautiful!
Breathtaking cinematographer as always my friend 🔥🔥🔥
Another belting video mate!
Super walk and ideal weather, dry ,clear and windless, I’ll take that in the Lakes 👌….keep them coming Glenn
Another great video, thank you, enjoyed and appreciated 👍
Sour How’s and Sallows. A morning of my life I’ll never get back plodding through bog in the mist with a compass looking for the highest bit. Your walk was much better. Keep them coming!
In the lakes next week. Planning on doing I'll Bell from the dam. ...... Looks stunning. Great vid again.... 👍
Lovely walk
Great Video, loads of info 🥾🥾👍
A can of Brewdog and a new Black Crag video. Loving Sunday evenings. Great work fella.
I squealed when I saw the notification! 😁 YORKIE!!!! 🥰🥰(such a big grin on my face!!) And totally agree on those lovely winding paths meandering up the fellside, they are our fave type too.

I love this so much! I would LOVE to go on a hike on this place too. Thank you for sharing!
Absolute inspiration, such an informative and educational series, I always learn so much from you, fantastic editing, can’t wait to see more of your journey 👌
I have run out of superlatives already Glenn I’m afraid .
Just lovely, my favourite TV atm .
Thank you so much for what you do 👏👏🙏🙏😘
Great photo ,that was worth waiting for. Walks not too bad for views either!😊
Been wanting to do this route since you put it out. Managed it today with some friends. Really is a great walk. The ridge is excellent, although slightly hot today.
Thank you for another fantasic video. I love the pastel color palette on the landscape - greens, yellow, brown and that rusty color was just a bonus 😀
Was that Sunday the 5th of Feb? We were staying at the Queens Head in Troutbeck but we were walking over High Stile and the skies looked amazing over Buttermere that day.
Thanks for this Glenn, I’ve been looking at doing some of these next, so a fantastic guide 🤩

That was a long outing today ! Brilliant soft lighting showing off the fells - must have made up for the cold!
Bit late in catching this one Glenn but it was well worth the wait .... and some of those views with the light! 👍🙂

Good content once again, enjoyable watching and very informative 👌👍

Excellent, thoroughly enjoying this great journey but I have to admit to guessing the wrong pub for some reason, jet lag I think 😂🍻👍

Drove past the queens head troutbeck today twice been up striding edge and up to helvelyn
Another great vid, thanks for sharing
Wow, driven past so many times on the way to Ullswater but didn't realise the stunning views so close.
Hi. I did this the other way round last Summer. It was a warm day with Windermere covered in mist till mid morning which looked spectacular from Sallows & Sour Howes. Great video
Great to see you on the fells today! I love the videos, they are a great inspiration when I'm at home in flat East Anglia. However to be controversial it has to be Yorkie Raisin
All your videos are amazing keep up the good work view or no view still amazing thanks 😀 👍
Thought you may have gone to Mortal Man which I enjoy, will have to give Queens Head a go next time I'm in Troutbeck as looks pleasant. Hope to do Yoke to Froswick this Spring.
Mardale Ill Bell has fantastic views into Blea Water and down Haweswater. Great path down to Nanbield too, think you're giving it a rough deal imo 😁👍
Another cracking video. A ridgeline I would like to do.
Cracking vid mate. Well put together. I’ve hiked dozens of them but very well portrayed and put together. Good example how they should be.
Ps. Don’t tell people about all the best places. Ffs. Ha.

Loving the drone shots again. Do you film in D-Cinelike and then colour it later?
I’ve noticed you don’t have any advertising on your video, could be a little extra income. Everybody else is doing it. Great video by the way, that’s one heck of a walk.
Up Kentmere there's a farm with a Pele Tower. Did you pass it?
Just googled it. Kentmere Hall
Kentmere Hall is a stunning 14th century tunnel-vaulted pele tower with five-foot thick walls. The turrets, one of the original windows and the spiral staircase remain.

Seeing as next week is the last for this season .... bring back Dina!
Hi. Are your routes viewable on OS maps?
Yep, all videos have clickable links to the OS in the description. You can download the routes to the app and follow along 😊
@Black Crag awesome. Thankyou.
I think I would notice if You used someone else's footage. Everyone of You lot I've subscribed to has his own for him typical "handwriting".
Anyway, another lovely walk and I preferred this to the TimeTeam live chat.The Prehistory Guys must wait as well. Why do y'all upload at the same time? ( just joking)
Take care
Unsure why my ancestors left.
