    This kind of video beats those ‘storm’, ‘snowed in’, ‘nearly died’ headline videos. Can’t stand the bullshit and the fishing. Yours are perfect Dave. I learn so much and really inspired by them. Really enjoyed this one mate 🏔️

    Fantastic Vid once again - that is the reason why I go to the Lakes - the quiet, I love it - never get bored of the Lakes - Thanks for sharing another cracking Vid Dave - spot on as usual.

    Hi Dave, loved this one! The videos you give us are gentle and lyrical, to be entertaining and informative they dont have to be full of drama! You have such a down to earth style, while taking us to extraordinary places, and I just loved the shot of the nosey Herdwick giving you the eye! Thanks again, you are appreciated.

    Nice one Dave, good little spot you found, with some great 360 views, cracking drone footage too, the allak really blends in amongst that terrain, could hardly see it from above 👌, I can’t wait to get back to the lakes give my new tent a go with some elevation , atb Mick 👍

    Watched this twice now, really great to get a view of other routes and other parts of the lakes and again, presentation and video was top notch. Hoping to get upto the lakes myself in the next week or so and do some wild camping and getting some of that solitude you talk about Dave, shame i have to drive 7 hours to get it from the south coast but love the lakes so not a real hardship. Keep up the hardwork these videos take to get out to us all, it really is inspirational and gives us some welcome headspace watching. ATB

    Keep doing this for yourself mate..take it easy.👍

    Spectacular as ever Dave. What you give in your videos, you can't get on prescription. It's quite possible though that the combination of red wine and a Bounty would not be endorsed by alot of doctors! But, I say keep enjoying it. Take care matey! Simon, Somerset.

    Hey Dave, great to see you out and filming again 😊 I'm actually heading out in that area myself today, but finally have some time beforehand to catch up on some YT I just love the view of Helm Crag from the bottom there. I'm.the same as you, not long before a layer comes off due to the sweat, walking past people with down jackets on who stare in disbelief at me in a t shirt 😂 can't beat a bit of bog trotting 😂😂 we did loads of that on the Cumbria way 😂 some lovely oranges and browns on the ascent mate 😍 always good to see the jets coming over as well 😊 great views from that 👌👌👌 pitch. There's so much room in that Allak I really like the look of them 👍 at least you didn't sit on your sandwiches this time pal 😂 superb drone footage as usual too 😍 you can't beat those quiet camps where you are completely on your own 👌👌👌 fantastic camp and video as always mate, catch you soon, atb Paul 🙏 🏕🏕🏕😁

    Lovely Dave, just lovely! Our last WW of the 214 was Tarn Crag (easedale) so this route brought back some delightful memories and we were watching it going "ohh we know this bit" and "ohh I recognise that bit" 😁 shame you didn't get the sun you were after but you did get one beautiful night amongst the stars again, good for the soul.

    Super video, Dave, great to see you back and treating us with another cracker, thank you. That's a lovely stretch of countryside up there and so quiet as it's sandwiched between the Helm Crag ridge and the busy Easedale Tarn walk. I remember those false summits though! A lovely area for pootling about and just exploring. And I remember coming off Tarn Crag years ago down to Easedale in head high bracken - I thought Dr Livingstone was about to appear any minute! There's something lovely and subtle about the colours of late winter. Did you hear me laughing when you said it was another easy one?! 🤣And I swear you're getting quicker at pitching the tent... 😉 And really... waving a milk chocolate Bounty about... 😆 the obvious question of course is was that Lindor milk or dark chocolate?! I fear the answer...
