You recently asked for suggestions..have you climbed 'Black Combe'..??

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

I have not! Will defo be one for the future though. Nice up and down on one video that one

[@davidmarshall5596]

It is on my list for one of those long summer days ..

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

@@davidmarshall5596 I’m hoping to do a MASSIVE walk in summer. Really early start… all the fells north of Bakestall

[@davidmarshall5596]

@@RamblingWithRitchie now that sounds like a plan 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I did the full loop up there about 3 years ago and really enjoyed it, albeit the weather was better than you had but still a fine days hiking, cheers Alan

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

I’m just working on the video for the full loop right now actually. Tryna release a video every 3-5 days. Should be on by mid March

[@Ksmyth4792]

Thanks, it was useful. How long did it take, there and back?

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

When I did steel knotts I carried on and did Wether hill, loadpot hill, bonscale pike and Arthur’s pike. In total maybe 5hrs

[@khh4093]

I found the video very informative and clear on how to climb this Wainwright

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

This is my exact reason for doing these videos. Thank you very much for your message

[@davidmarshall5596]

Excellent views around & good wind 'sound effects 👌'

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

Cheers mate. Honestly those wind sounds are real

[@yasminshikingmission]

Thanks nice video showing the route up 😊

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

Thanks for watching 😃👍🏻

[@helensoutar5106]

I did find this video very useful. As always your walks and explanations are very good for helping people like me decide whether or not it is within my capabilities. I think this one definitely is. I am maybe going to do this on Friday (25th Feb 22). and be try doing a round with Bonscale Fell and the otehr you mention above. Hope your video is out before Friday would be very useful to watch it in advance. I'll study the map tonight! Thank you so much. Keep these coming - they are so good. Helen.

I’ve got a video of the Full around but I’m just finalising the last bits of it. If I can load it up and get it on TH-cam in time I’ll put it on public so you can watch. Press the alarm bell on my channel so you receive notifications of my videos

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

I’ve got it uploaded. But doesn’t premiere till 6th March. However if u wanna see it I’ll premiere it tomorrow if you like instead

[@davidmarshall5596]

I can well believe the wind sounds are real..when inused to go fell walking with my father there were times on fell.tops when it took your breath away & nearly blew yo away..makes it very uncomfortable when the wind is very strong & it's a great relief to come off the summit & into the valleys.

[@RamblingWithRitchie]

I find it so exhilarating I love the noise and the power the wind has. Once found it almost too strong one time when I did my first solo walk round Coniston. Was scary but kind of exciting at the same time

[@davidmarshall5596]

Yeah I know where. You're coming from..I don't mind it being windy but if it's very strong & if it's a cold wind then that spoils it for me .

Waiting

Thank you. Will be out soon 😃👍🏻
