That waterfall was in full flow on my walk the day before it's unbelievable they can freeze so fast. Another big walk Marra well done. Great video... stay safe bud and get them Spikes you'll think nothing wandering about in't snow and ice it'll become second nature. ATVB Andy and your la'al fury pal the ROCK STAR ⭐
Feel like there was less snow monday than the pics I've seen of your walk Sunday.. certainly didnt get any snow showers sadly.. was a great day tho, looking forward to your perspective of it 🙂
Incredible video Dave, how you did that without micro spikes is a miracle. That's a long tough walk in the best of conditions and we had a fail there last year because of dangerous winds. The snow and ice is very picturesque and gave you some incredible photos and vistas but I know those ascents and descents are tough at the best of times so you did amazing. Your glove story at the end was very heartening, your guardian angel was looking after you. All the best, Ashley
yea am definitely putting the lottery on tomorrow night.. Yea the winds were horrendous really, the bitterness of them destroyed my camera i think and i don't think much was forecast.. that plateau must be like a funnel.. Thanks for watching lad :)
Just found the channel, Dave. Terrific stuff. Nice to hear a Cumbrian accent on a fell walking vid. As an old fell walker (old being the operative) and a resident of Rasset I'll be closely following the channel and your fell bagging
I need to do every single one of them in that valley, so a great reference video of me. Never seen a frozen waterfall before and the initial walk up reminded my of walking up to Seat Sandal. Some superb views but dam shame about the shredded Go Pro batteries, I use the new Winter GoPro batteries and was out last week in -7C for for almost 6 hours and only had to swap the battery once. Either way, great news about our glove and often wondered which way around to do this walk and your route looks the best to me. I have spikes, which are invaluable but keep leaving the bloody things at home - got them in my bag now lol, cheers Alan
Its a very easy walk to be fair.. The initial walk up onto the plateau yes is similar to seat sandal but a much better path.. Once your up there you just have a few short scrambles up to each summit to pick them off and the walk round to Rosset is lovely although feels quite remote. I have a gopro hero 8 and sadly they don't do cold weather batteries for those so ive had the suggestion of a volta stick, basically a powerbank built into your go pro handle. Thanks for watching Alan, tek care :)
@@daveostlemountainman - The Volta is great but I have broke two of them, as the connection between the Volta and GoPro is flimsy, so care is needed with them 👍
Great video Dave . Lovely story about the glove. I was doing Ullock Pike last week very slippy then it snowed was well dodgy till i remembered i had spikes in my bag ...what a difference wearing them definitely recommended buying some .
aye very steep coming off the north end of ullock from what i remember of it, think someone died on there xmas day a few years back sadly.. Yea ive learned my lesson, no more ice slides for me :)
HI Dave, belting video again mate. I do love the Langdales, probably my favourite area of the lakes. Such stunning views all around and what a day you had for it. Such a shame the video had to be cut short because of the camera batteries. Looks like the cold is affecting the batteries in the smoke alarm too! haha Thanks for sharing thought mate. I bet it was tough getting back down of Pike O Stickle, given the frost and ice. All the best mate Dave
I took them out of the smoke alarm cos it went off once randomly all day for no reason, must have annoyed my neighbours.. gonna get me some cold weather batteries, apparently expensive but supposed to be the real deal. Thanks for watching lad :)
You absolutely smashed that one Dave. Over 11 miles! Wow. Some stunning footage too. Looking forward to the next one. 👍
Yea a long walk but not too much climbing.. most of those miles walk walking flat ground at high level, definitly reccomend it. Cheers my friend 🙂
Unbelievable wow
Another great one Dave. It looks like a vicious windchill. Great scenery though.
yea it was great, i can handle the cold i have thick skin but added wind was fierce. thanks for watching again :)

Another big walk Marra well done.

Great video, as always, Dave! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it.. I would have enjoyed it more if I didnt spend half of it worrying about ma lost glove Haha
