Haha, not surprised in the slightest at the sunny weather but man we could all use some sunny weather this year. I have all of these to do, so this was a great reference video of me, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, It's really good to hear from you. Yes, I agree the weather has been awful lately, we could do with some summer back! It is a really nice walk. The views from Middle Fell are really good. Hope you are well. Thanks for watching, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Thanks for the great comments, really appreciate it. We really enjoyed this walk as the views were good all the way. The views were also varied, we had good mountain views towards Scafell Pike etc and also views out over the Cumbrian coast towards the Isle Of Man. Thanks again ( and thanks for the sub!) Cheers. Eddie
Thanks Leona/Chris. Appreciate the comments. We enjoyed this walk and were pleased the weather was ok. We were hoping to see Joss Naylor, but no such luck! We have watched the video when Chris met Joss Naylor with The Fat Boys. I have just started filming in 4K, it seems to make a difference. It takes a bit of time to edit due to the file sizes though. Thanks again for watching and commenting. Cheers. Eddie.
Thanks. The area around Wast Water is a stunning part of the Lake District. This was a great walk. Thanks for watching & for the kind comments, it is appreciated. Cheers. Eddie.
Just to emphasise how brilliant your videos are! I literally use them as a pre visit planning tool for my wild camps and they're so useful. Thanks guys! Adge
Hi, really appreciate such positive comments. I am pleased the videos are of some use with your planning. This is another good walk with some great camping spots. I have been taking a break from the filming, but intend to start doing the videos again soon. It is comments like yours that give me the motivation to continue producing the videos. Thanks again for watching & commenting. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
Hi Eddie. Spectacular scenery. I want to pack my bags and get up to the lakes immediately! I’ll be catching up with all your videos and no doubt that will cure my cabin fever till I get out there again soon. Love the Floyd music. Thanks for the sub.. atb Stephen.
Thanks Stephen, really appreciate the comments. We enjoyed this walk and were lucky with the weather. I had another Floyd track from The Wall on the first draft of the video, but changed it. I will use it in another video. Likewise for the sub. Thanks again. Cheers. Eddie
Hi Mark, good to hear from you! Indeed I’m still alive and kicking - not been out much... It is channels like yours and +Eddies that help us, outdoorsmen, when grounded and can’t get out for one reason or another and this keeps our sanity and cabin fever at bay. Looking forward to catching up with comments on your vids shortly. What great memories we creators build on RUclips.! Stephen.
Hey there Stephen, good to hear from you. I'm glad the videos keep you from cracking up completely under the strain of being grounded. I'm sure you'll be back out when you'er ready. Yeah, some good memories being recorded. Take care....
That was a fabulous walk about on top there Eddie. As you said you got some reasonable weather, which made for some good film and great photos. Nicely narrated. Take care. Mark
Well done both, another excellent video Eddie. It's been a while since Derek and I did these three so thanks for taking us along with you, good to see the wonderful views again, wasn't any moss on Joss' Naylor's cairn when we were there. Once again you were lucky with the weather. Quite different from Wednesday eh Eddie! Mary
Thanks Mary, we both enjoyed this walk. It was a bit breezy, but other than that the weather was good. You are right, the weather was just a bit better than last Wednesday!! I still enjoyed the walk last Wednesday despite the weather. Thanks again for the comments and watching. Take Care. Eddie.
Very nice video Eddie and the views are really stunning in 4K. Your a dab hand at this narration lark mate and of course the view is always improved by Carol's presence. Well done
Thanks Graham, really appreciate the comments. It took a while to get used to talking to the camera while out walking. It was quite windy so some of the narration was difficult. I agree with you, the views are improved by Carol's presence, ha! Thanks again. Cheers. Eddie
Another great hike you two! Weather always seems to be on your side and the views you captured were truly stunning. It was nice to see Joss Naylors cairn, missed it the last time I was in that area. Tfs👍
Thanks Anthony, I think you are right about the weather, we have been lucky lately! We both enjoyed this walk, it had great views all the way. Thanks again for watching and commenting. Take Care. Eddie.
Thanks Mike, we both enjoyed this walk. it was a bit breezy, but other than that, the weather was good. Thanks for commenting and taking the time to watch. Can I ask you, where can I get a copy of your books? I would really like to read them. I think they would be a perfect read during the dark winter days! Cheers. Eddie
Eddie Caisley : Re books, perfect reading for the long winter nights, you must be joking. My wife will testify that the four books are the worst piece of writing that’s ever been done! This may well be true but I only wrote them for myself, especially for when I’m in the Care Home and can look back on my adventures. Because they are so bad I’ve never charged anybody for them, I just ask people to give a few pounds to any Mountain Rescue Box should they ever be in the hills. The very first book ‘Travels With My Coffee Flask’ is with the printers at present as I’ve completely updated it and got rid of many annoying mistakes. I’m now in the process of updating the ‘Path Less Travelled’ book (this is I believe the best one out of the four). If you would like any or even all four please send me an address via email: costamike@icloud.com. But once again I have to warn you they are total rubbish. Cheers Eddie. Oh, one last thing, this latest film you made in 4K did you find during the editing process that it jumped about a lot? I made a 4K one last week at Dartmouth and found it missing audio at times and froze. However, when downloaded onto RUclips it came out perfectly.
Hi Mike, I will send you an email for the books. I would like to read all 4 ( It's a long winter!!) but just send me what you can. I will pay postage if required. If you are coming up to the Lakes in the next month or so, I could even get the books when you come up. As for editing in 4K, I have previously used NERO Platinum 2018 editing software. The videos jumped about a lot when using NERO, but the final video was ok. I found this made the editing more difficult. I have just started using Powerdirector 16 Ultimate. My latest video was edited using Powerdirector. There was no jumping around while editing and I found it easier to work with. Powerdirector creates shadow files of each video clip in a lower resolution making it easier for editing, then reverts back to 4K for the final video.
Thanks so much for taking me to Wastwater again. The music was a little too restless for me at the beginning, so I was glad it calmed down later on and I could focus on the beauty of the scenery and the great shots of you two enjoying what must have been a fantastic day. Hope you're out somewhere enjoying the bank holiday now, with or without camera! All the best ....
Thanks Elizabeth. This was a another great day, we both enjoyed this walk. The music is quite difficult to get right sometimes, I have experimented with different styles of music. I agree with you that the focus should be on the scenery and not the music. I now try to have more relaxing background music in my videos which fits in with the scenery. Having a relaxing Bank Holiday as the weather is not too good! Thanks again for watching and commenting. Cheers. Eddie.
Thanks for watching and commenting, we really enjoyed this walk. The views were really good and I think we were lucky with the weather. Thanks again. Cheers. Eddie.
Hi Eddie and Carol. Thanks for another fabulous and informative video. We!re heading over to Wasdale on Friday, camping at the NT Campsite there. The weather forecast is looking good, so we’re hoping to get 4 days of walking in. Will definitely do this route, although we may divert to Haycock as well. Loved your Illgill Head/Whin Rigg video too, and that walk is also on the list. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experiences. Happy walking,! All the best, Yvette and Mark
Hi Yvette, thank you for the positive feedback on the videos, it is appreciated. Sounds like you have a great few days planned in Wasdale. The Illgill Head/Whin Rigg walk is one of my favourites, the views looking over Wast Water are superb. The Middle Fell walk is also superb and well worth doing. We are hoping to get over to Wasdale soon as Carol wants to do Yewbarrow. I have done Yewbarrow, but Carol still needs to do it. We were planning to go over to the Lakes this week ( Wed or Thurs) depending on the weather. Thanks again for watching & for the comments. Take care & Best Wishes to Mark & Yourself.
@@eddiecaisley5746 Thanks for your reply Eddie. We also need to do Yewbarrow. We aimed to do it when we did Pillar, Scoat Fell, Steeple and Red Pike but the weather came in and we had to come down pdq at Dore Head (soooo steep!) Hope you manage to get there and have a lovely walk. All the best Yvette and Mark
Hi Eddie and Carol. Hope you are well. Another FABULOUS video! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this - it’s appreciated so much. We did this walk a couple of weekends ago, but we did Middle Fell, Haycock, Caw Fell, Seatallan, Buckbarrow and then the Joss Naylor Cairn. So good. There was a fell running race that day (I think it was the UK Championships) and on the way up Haycock we met a lovely guy who was on his way up to photograph the event. He was telling us he is also the photographer for Joss Naylor’s latest book to be published later this year, and recounted some amazing stories about him. What a bonus that was! Did you make it to Wasdale? I think in one of your other comments you said you were hoping to get there soon. All the best, Yvette and Mark
Hi Yvette, good to hear from you, we are both well, thanks. That sounds like a great walk you have done and what a bonus meeting the photographer for Joss Naylor's new book, that's amazing! We went over to Wasdale on Wednesday (30.6.21) and did Yewbarrow, Red Pike, Scoat Fell, Steeple & Haycock. It was a great day, although Yewbarrow was covered in clouds when we got to the top, so we did not get the views. The clouds cleared as the day went on. Thanks again for watching & taking the time to comment, it is appreciated. It is always good to hear how other peoples walks go. Take care & Best Wishes to Mark and yourself. Cheers. Eddie & Carol.
@@eddiecaisley5746 Thanks for your reply. Realised I had already commented, goes to show how much I enjoyed your video!. Glad you were able to get back out to Wasdale again. That sounds like a good walk you did there too. Yewbarrow…..I put that one off this time. I’m really scared of heights and have got myself into a bit of a tizz about it in my head. I’ve seen your video on it (another fabulous day you had there) but it looks really exposed. Is it? I’ve done Striding Edge 3 times and wasn’t bothered, so maybe I’ll just have to get over myself and go for it. All the best, and keep on with your lovely films - they are so inspiring! Yvette and Mark
@@yvetteprice8097 Hi Yvette, if you have done Striding Edge 3 times, you should have no problem with Yewbarrow. Go For It!! ( I am currently putting together our latest video from Wedneday's walk with Yewbarrow on) Best Wishes & Happy Hiking!
Been watching your videos through lockdown Eddie really enjoying them. I've got 18 to go and this is one of them. Never been to Wasdale yet is the parking ok. I think you said park at Greendale. I was going to go Buckbarrow first but now after watching this will follow your route. I might add Haycock again though. Ive always hated the start and getting parked, that's why I'm asking. Great videos 👍
Thanks Ian. This was a great walk with some great views. There is plenty of room to park at Greendale. Wast Water & the Wasdale area is one of my favourite parts of the Lake District. Thanks for watching & for the kind comments, it is appreciated. Hopefully we can all get back out on the fells soon! Take care. Cheers. Eddie
@@eddiecaisley5746 thanks Eddie I always find the hardest part of the walk is getting parked. I need three, maybe four trips here to get finished. It's a long way around from the north east but I'm looking forward to it. May see you on a fat boys trip as I joined them for the first time last year. Thanks for info. Much appreciated.
That climb up to Seatallan is no joke! Definitely a lung buster!
Hi, yes you're right there! It is still a really good walk with some great views. Thanks for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Cheers. Eddie.
Haha, not surprised in the slightest at the sunny weather but man we could all use some sunny weather this year. I have all of these to do, so this was a great reference video of me, cheers Alan
