- Surely there is no other place in this whole wonderful world quite like Lakeland...No other so exquisitely lovely, no other so charming, no other that calls so insistently across a gulf of distance...All who truly love Lakeland are exiles when away from it....It's so good to be back.
Not been for a wild camp for a long time, so i decided it was time to get the tent out again...i chose to go up to the Lake District. When it comes to beautiful scenery, nowhere else can match it...I plumped for a walk in the Eastern fells, A walk from Grasmere.While out walking i managed to add another 4 Wainwright tops to my 2nd round list..
Nab scar..1450ft
Heron pike..2003ft
Great rigg..2513ft
Stone Arthur..1652ft
This takes my 2nd round tally up to 59..

What a nice treat this film was, unfortunately I’ve been bitten by the black dog of depression and not been feeling too good. This film certainly improved my spirits and I even liked the panda joke. Yes it’s a strange phenomenon that human beings must be close to others. Guess it’s a primal herding instinct designed as a safety measure. Then to leave rubbish that is a total cardinal sin. FIVE STAR FILM ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks Mike....hope the Black dog didn't dig his teeth in too deeply...Panda joke??...it was a true story !!...as for my neighbours, they were as hard as nails Geordies. wouldn't want to mess with them....get yourself out for a walk tomorrow, everything will seem so much better....just keep walking and everything will be OK.
I'd have been annoyed if I went out for a bit of peace and quiet, and then someone pitches up right next to you. Nice one for picking up their rubbish, too. Definitely a windy one. Thanks for sharing Steven.
Annoyed?...i was bloody fuming, couldn't get my head around why anyone would do that....all in all i enjoyed it though....cheers mate.
Glad you enjoyed it. As you said back in the groove.. Great video. Thanks Geoff
Thanks Geoff...yes well and truly back in the groove.
That was so funny when your sleeping bag rolled down the hill. Amazing views up there.
Thanks Carrie...yeah looking back it was kinda funny
Great to see you in the Lake District Steve, can't beat it there. Glad you got your sleeping bag back! 👍
Thanks Patrick...yeah like my legs were not aching enough, then i had to run down to retrieve the sleeping bags...never mind, all good fun.
Good to see you out on the hills with a tent, I can't fly the flag for us old codgers all on my own. Can't believe they would pitch that close. Good job your sleeping bag isn't green, you'd never have found it" Nice one, ATB, Roger
Who are you calling an old codger ?...ha ha...i suppose i am...still young at heart but the old 63 year old legs feel it from time to time...not done a camp for ages , so was chuffed that i could still carry a heavy pack...there will be more of these to come.
Every other TH-camr is getting lucky with the weather at the moment! Whenever I pick the camera up, the heavens open.
Stone Arthur was one of those stragglers when I was doing the Wainwrights. I ended up having to bag it on its own. Should have been more organised.
Well done for picking up that litter. Why do people think that’s OK?!
Cheers mate...wouldn't say i was that lucky with the weather, that wind was bitter, slept with a wooly hat on and gloves and was still cold...good to get out though
Good idea to start with a pint. Have never been to Grasmere but my sister used to go there for holidays. Wonderful scenic walk. Love the night sky. It's funny they pitched their tent so close to you. It did sound very windy. Enjoyed your trip. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️
Hi Dave and Dawn...yes the pint was a good way to start the walk...it was a windy night, and so cold...i slept with gloves on all night...cheers folks
Love me some camping ❤
Thanks Bex
Good to see you out overnight. Cracking views and great film!
Thanks Stuart...even the Wind , rain, cold and my neighbours didn't dampen my spirits roll on the next one.
Grasmere gingerbread is always worth the queue. 4 Wainwrights is pretty good for a days walk and 4 off the list. You got a good spot for a camp out - fantastic views, shame about the wind and good job your sleeping bag wasn't a camo one. Shame about the neighbours and them leaving their litter behind.
Hi Andy...yeah it was a good spot shame about the wind and the neighbours.
Great trip, would not like having someone camp right up to me like that. Nice of you to pick up their litter. You have a fantastic evening and catch you on the next one 😊
Thanks mate ..really appreciate that...couldn't believe it when they set up their tent so close.
Looks amazing Steve,
We really need to visit the Lake District it looks stunning
WOW! That queue for the Gingerbread
Perfect start to the day a pint and crisps 😊
Glad you found your sleeping bag
Can't believe they camped so near to you, and leaving rubbish too 😟
Loved the music choice
Hope you and Karen are both well 😊
Thanks folks...it's such a stunning area...Don't get caught up in the queue for Gingerbread though.
All in all, that looked like a fantastic adventure mate.. stunning views and looked like you were spoilt for choice for an idyllic camp spot! But then, despite the miles and miles of open rugged wilderness, some ignorant bugger pitches right hext to you! Some bloody people eh!! You just cant seem to escape 'wrong uns' these days eh. Litter as well, suns them up. But, you still did a great little vid, bagged the wainrights, had breathtaking views and spent a night in a tent.. bloody lovely! 👍
Thanks folks...you are right..."lots of wrong uns around these days"..Really enjoyed it though..cheers Steven
Very nice campsite, but a bit close the neighbours I see. Looks amazing there. Absolutely a place to see. Thanks for sharing. Greetings 👍😊
Thank you for watching and commenting mate...i appreciate it
Always a q for the gingerbread and good to see you took the correct turn off for Alcock Tarn and not do what I did in the snow and miss it :o( . Canny weather mind and great views, with a great view from you tent. I think Autumn has started early this year and we have bypassed summer altogether, cheers Alan
Hi Alan...i hope you are wrong about summer being bypassed..getting fed up with this cold weather
Great walk Steve,and a great pitch, glad ya enjoyed it.
Thanks Ken......loved it...roll on the next one
Watch out for the squirrels🐿🐿
It's a great view for a Heron😁
Awesome spot for your tent!
Yeah, those guys got a little bit close to you!!! What the heck is with that?
Good on you for taking their trash with you😀
Nice one, Steven😊
Thanks Age....yeah i was gobsmacked when those guys pitched up so close to me...it spoilt the night a bit...
Love Grasmere, very deserved of the name “jewel of the lakes”, yay pint and crisps to start, cracking! Good old William Wordsworth. Superb views and great weather, glad you missed the langdale front. We love Alcock Tarn.showing off with that second round now! Bagging off those AWs whilst you wait for dusk! 6 does sound early for a wild camp setup! Oh no, errant sleeping bag! 😂 what were the two guys thinking? Typical, oh my days you can hear them too! Looks pretty windy. Lovely 24 hours in Grasmere ❤
Hi folks...lovely to hear from you...i had a lovely time walking and filming this...it was so cold at night though, i slept with wooly hat and gloves on...might do a few more of these while i am still young enough to sleep on the ground...i always worry that i will get cramp, stuck in a tight sleeping bag with cramp is my worst nightmare...hope you are both well and enjoying life
@@atrampinthehills.841 thank you Steven, having a lovely time. In our £43 a night AirBnB, drinking £1 wine. Wild camping is definitely something we need to do in our lifetime, envious of the 4 wainwrights, particularly given that we are nowhere near completing our first round, let alone our second. You Sir, are an absolute legend. Love to you and Karen from the Picos Di Europa!
@@GENerationXplorers Enjoy your hols folks...maybe we could arrange a wildcamp one day
Hi Steven this looks a lovely walk and camp I’m at work at the moment but I’ll catch up with it later when I have more time 👍atb Glenn
Cheers Glenn...appreciate that....enjoy work!!
Fantastic trip 👍
Many thanks!...appreciate the comment mate
Nah then, ey up me duck.
Look at you gerrin all posh goin tet Lake District. Beautiful there ain't it fella, I've got to get mesen over there at some point this year.
The sleeping bag episode had me peein mesen, I just wish it'd rolled a bit further and you caught it on video 🤣😂😉
Ay a good weekend me owd 🙂👍
ey up Soggie,,yeah reet posh me...can't beat the Lake district mate.
That made me chuckle. I think you enjoyed that one 😁
Thanks mate...really enjoyed it....can't wait till the next one.
Great day of hiking! Too bad it was so windy over night, not to mention your neighbors. Looks like you had plenty of food and drink, but that doesn't help in the sleep department. Lovely views down to the Lake District. I hope you can get out again soon too! Have a great week! Jen
Thanks Jen...yes i really enjoyed this walk although the camp was a bit rough.
Haha, playing football with your sleepingbag!😊
You had enough beer, i think, wasn't that to heavy to carry
The weather wasn't very good. But trying to find a time with good weather is pretty hard nowadays! 😊
Have a great evening! Kaat
Thanks Kaat...i always find space for a few beers in my rucksack..Ha Ha.
Looked a good one Steve. The lake district is an area I need to get too. I've done Cat bells and the honister pass and that's basically it. Excellent video and the music 👌 I need to find it. Also get my pt1 of Gritstone Trail up loaded. Catch you on the next one
Thanks Gavin...yeah get yourself up there...it's heaven on earth [ when the weather is nice ]
Amazing views 👍
Thanks very much
Some great views there Steve and Stone Arthur looks a belting camp spot. As for Heron Pike, I'm thinking it's a derivation of 'Erne Pike', 'erne' being an old name for an eagle.
Hi Chris....thanks for the info on Heron pike...seems obvious now.
Well dug out that one mate. I sometimes hide my pack if I want to go up to another summit and back, saves you lugging it up that bit. . Next time everything you put down, Karabiner it to yer pack😉. And yeah numpties pitching next door. I’d have said, ‘you camp often then? Cos it’s wild camping code not to pitch on the same pitch’ Or threaten to set fire to their tent🔥🤣 Again well done mate 🏆
Thanks Pete...yeah couldn't believe those numpties..why would you do that?
Hahaha the sleeping bag tho class steve good day out here buddy and nice camp but bloody hell they might aswell have asked if they could share yours 6 foot there are some strange folk and to leave you some rubbish that was kind of them lol nice to see you get a pint in first always respect for that man with he's priorities right good vid mate and yeah the weather for June is s..t like 😂
Thanks Mate...yeah turned round and the sleeping bag had gone...like me legs had not had enough that day...ha ha...all good fun though
Brilliant video! Sorry to say I had tears in me eyes with that red zippered thing having made its way down the hill!😂 at least it didn’t land in a puddle! Absolutely stunning views there! Shame about the inconsiderate ‘neighbours’, all that blooming space & they have to land there!! One last thing, I have to ask, stop hubby repeating it every video, but have you ever owned a motorbike?! Anyway already looking forward to the next one! ❤️xx
Ha Ha...as if my legs were not aching enough, then i noticed the sleeping bag was missing....oh well all good fun at the end of the day....tell hubby i have never owned a motorbike, i wouldn't know how to ride one...thanks Sylvia, always nice to read your comments.
Great vid Steven, some of these new wild campers are a joke, no etiquette at all. most edges in peak district are fast becoming $h!t holes
Cheers Rob...and when you say Sh!t holes...you really do mean Sh!t holes.
bloody hell steven camping what next i see the good lady had the right idea lol looked a bit windy up there . lucky with the sleeping bag could of been a cold night if that went out of site . great vlog tho matey 👍👍👍
Cheers pal...oh yes nearly lost the sleeping bag, now that would have been a disaster....enjoyed my night out...hoping to do it again soon
Heyyyy where’s Caren lol ..I was in the Lake District last year steven ..absolutely beautiful…loved it ..😊
Thanks Ruth...Karen was a work...she' told me to get out there and enjoy myself...i sure did.
That was an adventure Steve, I wish I was there with you. Great video made me laugh.
I’d have told those guys to F off and they left rubbish bloody campsite mentality.
I think that was a short que for gingerbread I’ve seen them queuing for a 100m and my wife would have wiped for an hour but I’d have enjoyed her patience.
Anyway so nice to catch up with you and enjoy your jovial company.
🍻
Thanks Dave...i couldn't have told those blokes to F off, they were hard as nails Geordies covered head to foot in Tattoos and twice my size...i did tell them about a sheltered spot a bit further up but they just ignored me...all in all though i enjoyed it and hope for many more camps.
@@atrampinthehills.841 if you want some company even a one nighter in the peaks or the lakes I would do a 2 nighter let me know and if I’m free. 🍻
Heron Pike Steve? Not sure about that - perhaps the namer was hallucinating. Great to see you out camping mate but with company. Ah, they're being defiant - maybe they were heading for the Stone Arthur too. Next camp you'll have the hill to yourself. A rough night but a fantastic view. Ha, buggered means mellow. Good going. Mark
Thanks Mark....all in all it was a good camp...i can see myself getting back into it...chuffed with myself that i could carry a huge pack without any aches and pains...stay tuned for the next one
@@atrampinthehills.841 A pleasure steve-hey good to hear it all went well. You know your bodies alright with it now.
Great adventure Steven 🏔️⛺️
Nice save with the sleeping bag mate👌🏻
We once last one too on Crib Goch a few years ago it was green 😢
ATB Simon 🤠👍
Thanks Simon....glad my sleeping bag was not green, it would have taken ages to find it....i bet you had fun scrambling down Crib goch to retrieve yours.
@@atrampinthehills.841 it remains there to this day 😭
@@SetForAdventures Ha Ha
That was great.
Good start with a quick pint👌
You had amazing views.
You did so well with a heavy bag.
Beers and water are heavy.
Mountain walking is nothing like people that walk in streets or on the flat. Cracking job👏👏💪
2 plonkers camping right next to you, really stupid🤦🏻
Your sleeping bag bouncing down the hill like a football 🤣
Well done👏👏
Very enjoyable watch👍
Thanks Jamie...the walk was outstanding but the night was a bit rough...glad i got out to do it though
@@atrampinthehills.841
You did well👏👏 🎒💪
Stone Arthur was the first Wainwright we did, bought back good memories for us. Enjoyed the video, shame you didn’t get the solitude you would expect. Good on you for taking their rubbish 👍
Thank you very much folks...Stone arthur is a cracking little hill, just a shame i didn't have it to myself.
Well your vid certainly wasn't pandemonium...and the joke barely raised a grin...Oh Dear🤣...Stunning views and a brilliant vid...Decisions decisions...My decision would be to get back to the car after such an amazing walk cos camping is a No No for me especially with unwelcome neighbours butting in...Excellent vid...Cheers Les🙂👍
Thanks Les....sorry you didn't like the joke...yes the unwelcome neighbours spoilt it a bit for me as i was seeking peace and solitude and all i could hear were Geordie voices.....never mind, all good fun at the end of the day
@@atrampinthehills.841 All the best Steven...I did enjoy the joke really...well ish😂...looking forward to the continuation of the Peak 75 visits...but I do well love your other also👍
@@lespickering5080 Thanks mate....peak 75 should resume this saturday
Looked a cracking day for it. I've not done Stone Arthur yet but looking forward to doing it now. I'm not sure why they'd wanna pitch a tent so close to yours either. It's not like there's not enough space to choose from like 🙂
Thanks Paul...yeah like they say "nowt as strange as folk".
Steve that was great. It was funny but what an absolute pain to lose your sleeping bag 🙈
Can’t believe people decided to camp right next to you and then leave their rubbish - pathetic.
Shame about the change in weather. I’m sick of this rain 😏
Thanks Phil...yeah the walk was fantastic but the weather overnight was very poor...very windy and so cold...i slept with gloves on.
Unbelievable that someone would come and pitch next to you like that 🤬🤬🤬
TFS cheers Alistair 👍
Thanks mate...yeah i was gobsmacked
Camping out! Pretty cool. Except for the jerks that camp right next to you, but even worse that they left litter. I sure hate that as well. Too bad about the wind at night as well. Anyway, beautiful place.
Cheers mate...an enjoyable time outside
Great that you got out for a wildcamp - even if it was windy. Can’t believe those inconsiderate idiots who pitched right next to you.
Thanks Kevin...still enjoyed it despite the wind and my visitors
Well done Steven 👏
It's a bugg🙊r when someone camps next to you isn't it 😂😂
So now your back out, when are we meeting up for a camp out 😊
Hi Danny...yes back out, really enjoyed it apart from the cold and my neighbours...yes we will have to arrange something one day
I’d have been pissed off with them pitching 6 feet away too. Why 🤔🤷♂️🤦♂️
Good to get out once in a while though hey.
Really enjoyed your video and looking forward to our meet up now. Good selection of beers.
What music was on the video Steven? 👍
Thanks Wayne...i tried telling those 2 blokes about a few sheltered spots a bit further up the hill but they didn't want to know...i have to admit that they spoilt it a bit for me...the music i took from the youtube library..all free...looking forward to the 29th, will be great to meet up with you...
@@atrampinthehills.841the song sounds like Hooky from New Order Joy Division. Can you remember which song from the TH-cam list mate? Would love to use that tune in a video 👍
@@penninewayne1967 It was called Tasty waves by National sweetheart....i also thought of New order when i first heard it
Some dramatic skies the first day. Grasmere is too overcrowded these days, as are so many of the prime tourist spots in the Lakes. I try to avoid the popular places these days. But get up on the tops and the crowds disappear.
Thanks Michael...yes it can get very busy but you can soon escape the crowds
By the way steven the panda joke …hahahaha 😅
Brilliant....glad it made you laugh.
