What an awesome view over Ullswater, a lovely old Norse name. The sheep might be a horned Dorset mix, good breeders, I can't swear to that, you can't say "hey Horned Dorset" so easily, it's not as endearing as hey herdies. Lol 😆
Fab video. I spent the night on Norfolk Island on Friday night looking up to those mountains. Trying to work out which ones they were. Might have a walk up there this weekend. ATB Peter
Fantastic high quality video as always. I was up on striding edge, Helvellyn and Swiral edge round to Catstycam last weekend after watching your video on that hike. Cool to see those from your Glenridding Dodd view. Very inspiring thank you.
Hi there Black crag (Glen) I believe I'm one of the subs that requested a vlog on Sheffield pike I've not seen it yet but settling in now thanks so much for this cheers Mike H.
Hi Glen I was hoping you might have gone up via Glencoyne but heyho a great vlog all the same. There is a picture of the Scraggy white sheep I thought it looked like the Goat of mendes the goat that sits at Satan's left hand 😂 anyway once again great vlog plus I gotta get me a "hey herdie" shirt cheers Mike H
I've been up on the Dodd once before...the weather was shocking and I didn't get that view, only went to the summit. Will definitely be revisiting and going rite towards the end for that view
Your videos are really starting to look like bbc production quality, amazing my friend, amazed I haven’t bumped into you yet, I’m always in the lakes up the fells, keep up the great work, added you on Instagram ✌️
Yep tore the cartilage in my knee about 2.5yrs ago and it's took well over a year before I was walking without discomfort. However 6 months ago I started walking the fells again but I use a pole now just to help a bit. I try and walk 2-3 miles a day and that helps big time.
Was going to say I know you do the lakes because you live locally but if you ever get chance I'd love to see mountains like Tryfan etc in Wales Your vlogs seem to have a renewed energy about them recently, I like it :)
Great vid , will be staying in glenridding at a campsite in a few weeks will do all this . Great footage .......👍 Would love see a bit more footage of proper lake district pubs at the end of the vids ...... as this is the true reward for all day hikes 😄 Ps. Parking paid for 👌
Thanks so much Chris, that's very kind of you 😊🙏 I always fancy recording some pub stuff but feel a bit of a pleb walking in with my camera. I'll give it a go next time 😁
Hey Glen, great video, not been up that way and probably wouldn't have thought about it, but will venture up there on next trip. I'll also get brownie points for it being short😄👍
Loved this! Stunning location and love your editing style on this, someone get a new toy? Don't think I've seen you record audio on a lav mic before but really works on your vlogs! I have a renewed appreciation for your vlogs.. in fact, all vloggers since producing my 1st ever last week.
Thanks very much, glad you liked it 😊 I've had the lav mic since very early on but I think it was more apparent this time as I spoke far from the camera 😁
Hi Glenn. I watched your Walking the Wainwrights video of Sheffield Pike yesterday, and thought I’d revisit your first video. The drone footage is superb, as usual. I get so much enjoyment from your videos, as they are the second best thing to being back in The Lakes myself. It’s about time I got you a beer to say thank you, so cheers🍻
Loved this walk. We're up in the Lakes, for a long weekend, mid October. Staying in Grasmere. Any suggestions for a walk? Btw - where was Finn? We missed him.
Descended via your ascent route a few weeks ago and it would appear that, like much of the Lake District, storm Arwen has given it a right good kicking; the path on the steeper section through the pine woods has been washed away in many places and there's a good few large trees blocking it. It was a feckin' nightmare with the best saved for last in the form of two girthsome pines right next to one another with no way over or under. Like your visit, it was flat and overcast so no worthwhile photos to be had. Good reason to go back, I think. Many thanks for yet another fell rockin' film.
Sheffield pike is the only wild camp me and my girlfriend have had to bail on. Weather was horrendous and the very few suitable pitches we found were far too waterlogged to be able to use. I have unfinished business with that Fell and will be back one day. Awesome content as always 👌🏻
Planning to hopefully run Sheffield Pike and Glenridding Dodd from Threlkeld at the weekend. Knocking off some new tops for my 45 new Wainwrights while I’m 45. Some good photo opportunities for my gurning mates to spoil. Liked and subscribed, will have a look at the back catalogue. Thanks for getting out there and recording.
Still watching your vlogs from across the world in Dubai. I've done these two fells twice before and would definitely consider them again. I really want to wildcamp on Glenridding Dodd for a sunset and sunrise over Ullswater. Love the content of your vlogs. They are the best out on the Lake District fells in TH-cam. Hope the knee is good. Cannot wait to finally fly home at the end of October and venture back to the lakes for the first time in 16 months. Man I miss it. The wife is even giving me a couple of months of me time before she fly's back with our girl. Thanks for the vlogs. Keep firing them out as I never miss one.
Another great vlog - but I now realise what I am missing - you talking more about photography, light and the genesis of your great pictures and your style of photos. Yours interested GW 🍺
Hi Stuart, one or two are available on the site but the majority aren't yet. I should probably create a page on my website for each vlog, with the photos to buy 🤔 Is there one in particular that you're interested in?
Actually Glenn, I’m thinking I need a collection or “montage” for my place in Perth. But which ones? Well to answer that I need to see a selection and chose ones that resonate with me. So, the more you have on your gallery the better. 🤔
Just discovered your channel and photography and I'm instantly hooked. Being an amateur photographer and from the lake District your photos are inspirational and I was wondering what gear do you use?
Good one! Liking the mix of different camera views, especially the tripod-mounted bits where you chat to us. Hope the knee recovers soon. Mine are shot to bits - must be an age thing 😢
Great way to start the week with your vlog. Great work again and what a nice little hike, deffo going to have a go at that one. Look forward to your next vlog.

Nice video and footage. Thank you for sharing and wishing you a wonderful day. Stay safe and I’ll be looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Thank you 😊
Currently barred from the lakes, doctors orders, these vlogs are my virtual hike 👍
Ah, that's a shame..... But I'm glad they're helping, thank you 😊
Different fells same outcome, love your knowledge/passion of the sublime Lake District 🏔🏔😍
Thank you 😊 🙏
Speedy recovery on the knee, I really liked the part where you were sat on the Dodd and filmed lots of boats passing and the cloud moving.
Thanks so much 😊 🙏
Keep up the great work great video thanks ;)
Great terminology - 'bogfest' 'tarnlet' 'drizzle flurry' 😅👍
😂
Loveing the videos
Great videos hope you do more soon

Hope your knee is better soon. I broke my leg last weekend on Dale Head so I’m walking through your vids at the minute, keep up the good work :)
Thank you, knee feels a bit better..... Sorry to hear you broke your leg! 😱
Amazing views
Thank you 😊
I’m too familiar with this fell but after this amazing video I’ll be up there this week 👍
Thanks very much 😊 🙏
Top quality as usual. 👍👍
Thank you 😊
I've been up on the Dodd once before...the weather was shocking and I didn't get that view, only went to the summit. Will definitely be revisiting and going rite towards the end for that view
could you do a photography vlog on darling fell please. loving your work.
That's a very good idea, thanks.... Added to the list 😁🙏
@@BlackCrag looking on a map, it would suggest views towards crumoch / buttermere and towards the coast.
Your videos are really starting to look like bbc production quality, amazing my friend, amazed I haven’t bumped into you yet, I’m always in the lakes up the fells, keep up the great work, added you on Instagram ✌️
Ah, thanks so much, that means a lot 😊 Come and say hello if you do spot a frantic bearded loon running around in the hills 👋

Sorry to hear that.... Hope you're walking full distances again soon 😊

And a good look at the beer selections 👍

@@BlackCrag how very non observant of me 🤦♂️ but like the new style of talking further away from the camera, really works with this style of vlog.
Got this planned for next week now, going to pop Hart Side on for good measure. Hope the knee mends well…
Sounds perfect, enjoy 😊 And thank you 🙏

We're up in the Lakes, for a long weekend, mid October. Staying in Grasmere. Any suggestions for a walk?
Btw - where was Finn? We missed him.
I've got a few vlogs of that area including Fairfield and Seat Sandal, Silver How, Helm Crag via Steel Fell and Loughrigg 😊
Great video. Next time save yourself a bit of money and park a short walk away the cricket pitch in Patterdale £3 all day money goes towards the club
Thank you and thanks for the tip 😊🙌

Awesome content as always 👌🏻
Thanks very much 😊 hope you get back there and show it who's boss 😁
Another great video, how many extra steps do you do going back and forth to your camera?😂
Great videos on your channel. Can I ask what camera you are using? The audio is great too, are you using a separate mic?

You’re right about the heather - mid July onwards it was stunning up there, wish it lasted longer! Fab vlog again, as always 👏🏻
It's very brief isn't it 🙄 And thank you so much 😊
Great way to start the week with your vlog. Great work again and what a nice little hike, deffo going to have a go at that one. Look forward to your next vlog.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it 😊 🙌
This was cool, felt like I was there taking pics with all your tripod views 😍 Also sending positive vibes to your knee 🤗
Thanks very much Faye 😊 The knee feels marginally better. I'll be testing it out on Saturday 🤞🤞
@@BlackCrag brilliant, hope you have a good one 💚
@@BlackCrag Good to hear the knee is feeling a little better Glen.
