- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ต.ค. 2016
- A three day, 6.4 mile walk and wild camp at Wasdale in the English Lake District. The first night we camped up Kirk Fell, ascending via the direct and very steep route. Day two we walked up Pillar and camped lower down in the valley. Many thanks to Pete for a great trip, check out his TH-cam channel / @maddogbushcraft1475

The majesty of that landscape is hard to capture in photographs or videos, but Damien, you did it. Beautiful! And those climbs, an achievement indeed.
Great video Damo. Great to have father and son time its precious and priceless. Stunning area for a ride or a camp. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Brilliant video buddy one of my favs!!! Awesome country we live in!
I'm so confident about the quality of your vids that i like em before watching them…….i watch your channel like a hawk for new vids keep em coming mate kind regards Phil from Oz
Your flicking good mind
Pachelbel's Canon was a nice touch. Very fitting! Nice video.
Most enjoyable outing and videography. The Lake District has made my bucket list. Thanks for sharing. Moz
Wow!...enthralling, stunning scenery ...thank you. :)
Cheers for another great video Damien. As always a bit of comedy thrown in 😉. My young yin is 4, he's started askin to watch your videos every morning 😂 so you have a new fan too...Atb mate.
Great one. Hell of a howk up Kirk fell like. So hats 🎩 off for that. The route you took up pillar was the shamrock traverse route. The one I said not to do in my video of pillar lol. The black sail pass is the bit where you come down Kirk fell then head up pillar. I wish I'd been there. I can only do Fridays and Saturday like. One day I'll get out with ya. Shame you had to come down. Pillar is amazing to camp on top. Nice video as always mate. Look forward to the next. Atb.
Thanks Andy, from the Black Sail Pass we walked along the ridge up to Pillar, I didn't like the idea of dropping down further to ascend again with a heavy pack, the shamrock traverse route would have offered great views of Pillar Rock and the crags. We were so lucky with the weather, you don't get many days like that in Lakeland. I'm sure we can sort a trip out soon, weekends are best for me also, ATB, Damian.
Nice to look back on these videos , when I'm busy with day to day life other interests etc its reminds me why I like wild camping and a push to get bk out cheers mate 👍
The walk up Kirk Fell was one of the hardest I've ever done. The route was steep, especially with a heavy bag but its nice to have the video as a memory. Looking back, I can relax watching it and know I did it. Thanks for your comment.
Fantastic Damien makes me want to start doing some wild camping thank you for sharing your adventures.
Wow that is some beautiful scenery. Just lovely.

Top video Damian. You will remember this one I am sure. 👍
Well jealous. Looked like a great trip.

Great video, that singing voice is quite canny too, nice song.. ATB from the UAE.
Great video, top notch camera work, watched all your Northumberland videos but this and the hidden valley in Scotland have left with with itchy feet!!
Love that place. great video.
Nice video Damien, looked like a great few days. The fitness is the hard part but with the views and some nice bait waiting for you its hard not to push on. Kirk Fell will be going on the list but i reckon it will be brutal in the winter months. Cheers for sharing ATB Steve
Hi Damian ,you pulled this one out of the top draw mate , great video !
great views and a great camp Damian, was nice to see you on the hills mate. love mad dog channel hes a top bloke.
Fabulous ! What a great time ! Thank you.
Looks like the Mach loop that damo or something similar with the jets ❤
Great rewatch thoroughly enjoyed this thanks again sir damo ❤
The RAF often fly through the hills in the Lake District, its good practice for them and exciting to see.
very nice video,looks like you guys had a very good time

atb
steve

ATB Richie
Hi from australia. Nice video, great effort. I've subscribed, look forward to your next vid
Great time lapse. Well done
Great vid really enjoyed it
Its about getting up off your arse and doing it all over again,that passion is the force that drives us,excellent vid as per,am up at great gable at the end of the month,but iv not long watched your shaftoe crag when your with your mate cheviot yeti,and now im wanting to get the lads up there,at least your vids give us all inspiration and a foresight into many diffrent areas with a genuine opinion and enteraining,cheers
I can't believe you carried all that gear straight up Kirk Fell! Lunatics!
Crumbs mate i was waiting for JULIE ANDREWS to come over the hill singing THE HILLS ARE ALIVE WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC……I was huffing and puffing just watching
Outstanding as allways mate, fantastic photography. ATB.
Thanks Chris, since getting a gopro and having two camera's, I can capture a lot more while filming. Theres a bit more weight to carry but worth it with nice memories to look back on in years to come.
Well done Damian those little legs did you proud, great video shots. atvb t ..
Excellent video felt that walk as if I was there Lol you definitely need a medal for that, the big fellow must be fit as a mountain ghote class video 👍
What a walk!
Great bit of filming. Gave a good insight of the vastness up there. I like the cooking bits you do on all the vids.
I had a small stroke back last year the first week in Feb, not right now but getting there. It messed up 2016 for me however I did manage to go camping three times. I hope to do a long walk this year and also the coast to coast walk. Many thanks for all.
Thanks for the kind words and I hope you get well soon, ATB, Damian
sweet vid mate I was up the lakes last weekend love the place. Pillar has some lovely views I've not been up it in the dry was snow when I went still lovely. Thanks for sharing
Pillar is nice and flat on top with lots of camping spots. Kirk Fell has better views IMHO but there is no easy way up, Pillar has a nice steady ridge walk with a little steepness at the end but nothing serious. There is something special about the lake District thats hard to explain, its a bit like Scotlands mountains but on a lesser scale, everything packed into a small area and only 2 hours travel to get there. ATB.
Spectacular scenery bro and looked a great spot to camp. All the best
Thank you, ATB, Damian
Nice Video. Wish I had an area like that to explore!
You make fantastic videos! You sir have a real talent. I'm so happy you share with us. Thank you. Bibsoutdoors
Hi Damo, good to see you having fun with the lads!.That said over the last few years I've been watching I generally prefer those where you are solo or with more of a personal touch. For me it's seems you seem closer to the nature and the environment, and hearing what you have to say and teach homies like me is something Ive really enjoyed. It is good and important to have a crack with friends to but please keep up some solo stuff too.
Great vid Damien. I really liked your honesty about your fitness mate but that 3dayer looked hard and quite scarey in places especially with a big pack plus filming at the same time. Hats off to you mate, I'd feel well proud of myself after that. Enjoyed as always Damien 👍
Lovely video, Damian. Particularly the timelapses.
fantastic camera work,,,nice one
tell ya wat mate ya done brill on that one
imagine how fit wainwright must have been
cracking vid mate thanks for sharing
Well done Damien fair play to you mate I am mustering up the courage to come on the next one
Thanks John, Pete is quite fit and was mostly in front but didn't wander too far without me, fitness is something to build up on and we should organise a small walk and camp, somewhere where you can park near by.
Well done! Some nifty camera work in there too :)
Damian, hats off to you bud what a fantastic video of our trip, don't think I did not take any of your filming knowledge in because I did and will try and put it into effect for my future videos. I had a cracking time mate and look forward to the next one. Our lass felt sorry for you and told me off for being a beast master , I told her it was you beasting me.Great stuff mate speak soon.Pete
Thanks Pete, looking back I remember the good times more than the pain lol.. my legs really stiffened up 2 days later and I found it hard to walk down the stairs at home. Looking forward to a woodland camp and a few of beers, ATB, Damian.
Not sure when, had a missed call off John tonight so will ring him tomorrow and find out if there is anything planned. Weekends are best at the minute so will let you know whats happening.
well done Damian. what a big fibber Pete is ha ha.. really enjoyed that hope your well :)
I beat Pete coming down off the hills as his knee's kept playing up. Its funny how going down is worse on the joints than going up, I have the same problem, its called old age lol.. I'm trying to keep a reasonable level of fitness for when Eddie comes down, hat off, his Rob Roy walk was epic. ATB
Great watch dude my sense of humour
Beautiful countryside.
Stunning. Great editing and well made mate. Nice one. ATB Moose.
Nice video from a good lad. Normal chap like rest of us . Well done mate .
What a beautiful area, thanks for sharing!
Greetings

Brilliant video Damien. You were out camping with a couple of lads I go out with a couple of weeks ago in harwood forest. Was gutted I wasn't with them. Hopefully be out with them the next time.
nice job mate
Thanks Bonney lad I enjoyed that your a good enough
Enjoy your videos, dont stop making them Please,
There is NO showing off on how good your are at wild camping ( which you are !! )
You show how easy it is camping without costing the earth, No primadonnas is what i like,
And your not one of them ,
looking forward to your next video.
BILLY
That climb looks brutal¬ ATB
Is it true chuck Norris has you on speed dial ....! And survival Lilly is stalking you ...? Lol 😊 love your videos , thanks for sharing 😊
"Sick of the sight of mountains" Hahaha classic!
cracking vids these
brilliant vid as usual damian,ive done scafell pike and I will be doing pillar towards end of November,great filming/editing and timelapse,but the best bit for me was when I saw "i belong to thee,by damian robson" take a bow young sir.........cheers mate.
Thank you, its was a tune which came to me after 6 cans in me shed one night, ATB, Damian.
Always enjoy your vids Damian, always on the lookout for the next. Great views on this one... seemed a bit of an effort getting up. Its your vids that have set me out to do some myself.. I have given you a mention on my most recent one.. keep em coming ATB Steve
Thanks for the mention Steve, it was a hard walk on the direct route up Kirk Fell, I will take a look at your channel. ATB, Damian.
Thanks for that I have been watching yours for ages now... I even nearly set the kitchen on fire making some buddy burners after yours... got a right bollockin off the misses LOL ATB Steve
Nice video Damion. I climbed Kirk fell earlier in the year but got fogged in. The time lapses were great.
Sandy
Thanks Sandy, the views from the top of Kirk Fell are stunning in good visibility. You don't get many days like that in the Lake District, it usually rains. ATB, Damian.
Wiltshire Man $
You must be fit, if you can yodal, tak and climb at the same time! Must do this one looks great.
Only 5 mins or so in to your video,enjoying it immensely...have a look at the Slumit cub tent,may suit you for local wanders/camps
Martin
I prefer a tarp and bivy in the woods, the tent was for the occassional hill camp. Will have a look at the tent you mentioned, thanks for watching.. Damian.
Looks like some pretty rough trails.
As always great video ,,, any chance of hearing full version of I belong to thee
Damian i'm mister heavyweight camper but that stove and tent seem very heavy for the hills......great stove i've got the smaller version. Your fit for what you normally do same as me , you got there mate i'm usually last on my trips but i always get there and i carry more than nearly everyone else.Great views and with a good man to have with you should things go sour.Atb.
Hi Eddie, Pete is a fast walker, one of his strides is nearly double mine. I would say my fitness is probably above average for my age, I just haven't been out hill walking in a while so wasn't used with the shock to my system. My legs were stiff for a few days afterwards but I'm pleased I've done it, even though at the time I was not enjoying the steep ascents, (no pain no gain lol) ATB, Damian.
Best yet lighten the load and you'll be king of the hill.
it looked an adventure, I've walked from kirk fell to pillar but I certainly didn't go that way, I remember it being easy.
when's you and Pete out next?
thanks for sharing, Atb Mark
Was a memorable trip minus the sore legs lol.. I'm not sure when we are out again, I wanna do a woodland camp or somewhere not too far the next time Mark. ATB.
Theres some braw hill doon there , cheers lads
Kirk Fell is one of the steepest climbs with a pack I've ever done. The views at the top made it worth while, absolutely fantastic.
That was just wondeful to watch and take part in. SO beautiful scenery and what a trip you had. Very impressed and certainly a Place to look up when going to the UK again. Thanks for sharing and taking time to show us this. Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
meatballs and mash!! yum!!
well done damion no pain no gain.will keep an eye on how alpkit 700 bears up as I fancy one & better to much scran than to little. cheers Geordie.
Thanks Geordie, its Alpkit's all round bag and packs down reasonably small, the -2C comfort rating will keep a female or cold sleeper warm around freezing, the -8C is the transitional zone where you will start feeling the cold. I've used it down to a couple of degrees above freezing and was toasty warm so its a good bag for Autumn and not too cold temperatures in Winter.
yes it was the bag that stood out for performance & value good to hear it's doing a decent job thanks damoin.
Damian - can you post I Belong to Thee as a seperate video - it really is beautiful. I'm a guitarist (amongst other things), and it is very good indeed.
Thank you, I haven't finished the song to be honest, it was something I came up with after a few beers and never got round to completing it. ATB
Nice video
Think your hart lies in the woods
That was a charming video Damien, was that you doing a sing song, was a lovely touch of guitar
Thanks, that was me playing in the shed after a few beers, just thought I would try something a bit different for the video. Its nice not to get a copyright notice for other peoples material as it was something I thought up after a few drinks. Damian
Bloody lovely mate, I started to play the harmonica i've put it on my videos and yeah your're right copyright is a pain., Atb Trev
great scenery , i cant get use to the lack of trees , bloody steep climbs :(
o mi friend . bloody nice one great video nice one getting up that hill . lol . I've got the same tent as you an I used p v c tape on one . an it's holding together well . love it when I go out I've got the dmp pattern . if your not going ta use it a lot an want too sale in time . keep us in mind my mate wanted one .thanks for sharing an ya time . ATB Andy
Thanks Andy, the dpm tent looks well camouflaged in summer woodland and the flecktarn looks like a rock from a distance when in the hills or well hidden in dark autumn/winter woodland, they are cheap and cheerful but are worth the money so I can't whinge about the minor faults. The pole cracked when I was putting up the tent and bent it too much so my fault really. ATB
Fell Wanderer the one in the middle went on the one I've got . I've used pvc tape round it an it's working great for now . If get some more polls please let me no were you get em from . Please . ATB . Andy
I found an old tent in the woods once and took the poles and groundsheet for a diy tarp, you never know when the parts will come in handy. You can have a pole for free if you don't live too far away to pick up. Go Outdoors have poles in but cant remember the price of them
Fell Wanderer thanks mi friend I'll have a look . More tea Vicker o o o p p ps s . Tc Andy
Fell Wanderer where are you? Need a video soon, am going through withdrawal here across the pond
