    I learned a little lesson about midges or whatever you call them over there. Set the camp up on the windward side of the valley. It worked. After I left the cow pen below I was thinking about some kind of boundary. 21:20, Blue doing stretches and cal. Mercy, those little buggers are awful.

    Thanks Alan for another fantastic vlog… the drone footage accompanied by really beautiful music was inspired and hugely creative, I imagine that took hours to synchronise. The views were phenomenal, we can always depend upon you each week to show us the wonderful country we live in.
    I enjoyed the little bit of footage with Blue walking towards the GoPro, I wonder what the view point is from Blues perspective… perhaps he could have a GoPro on his pack too. Blue is such a sweet dog, it’s clearly obvious he adores you.
    Also is there ways of limiting midgies with citronella or other methods..? Loving your work Al.

      @@BUSHMANandBLUE … yes your standard is high, I imagine it would never be anything less in everything you do. My father is of a similar type, he has very high standards. He never seemed to notice pressure, though we felt it trying to keep up with him lol. He is 85 now, my mum too… still going strong enjoying life to its fullest, now retired in Australia. Both of them survived the Blitz, childhood neighbours, in dockland London which was bombarded heavily for years. I suppose something in that experience gave them a huge zest for life. What motivates someone to climb a mountain in a blizzard, or stinking hot day? That’s what’s fascinating about humans doing extreme things, or at least out of most peoples comfort zones, it’s interesting.

I would be very intrigued to know if the scenery would have been the same if you were a legionary marching along the road 1900 or so years ago. Anyway another very nice video. Thanks for making it.

    Hi Al - great video as always. Thanks to your inspiration, I've just returned from my first ever wild camp in the Lakes - with 13 year old son along too. Great to spend time together - and away from technology. Up the corridor route to Scafell Pike, over to Great End, down to Esk Hause and camped at Sprinkling Tarn, then down Grain's Gill back to Seathwaite - perfect weather and the tarn looked stunning at sunset and sunrise - as you'd expect. All we needed was an epic dog with us! Keep it up mate - you're inspiring great things...

    Love your Yorkshire accent. Although little is lost to me in translation ( I lived in the U.K. once, and traveled extensively there), every time you say " tarn" it sounds to me like you're saying " town", and I keep looking for houses and streets.

    Another brilliant and inspiriting video Al. One of my main concerns when thinking about wild camping is where to park. Just about everywhere in the Lakes states "no overnight parking"!
