- Challenging, beautiful, horrific... everything an adventure needs really!
This time, I'm returning to the lake district, this time, in search of climbing new mountains. A five hour drive up to Langdale, I had semi planned the first day of scaling the Langdale pikes.
Harrison Stickle (736m)
Loft Crag (682m)
Pike of Stickle (709m)
I had a goal of finding a spot to camp with a view that would take my breathe away. Although I may have achieved that goal... it was a stupid goal to have. Whilst I did get to enjoy my dinner with one of the best views I've had, I only managed 2 hours of broken sleep due to fairly strong gusts.
The next day, I set off aiming for one mountain and accidently bagging another! At this point, I'm not even surprised by myself anymore...
Although a beautiful day, gingers, up exposed mountains, in the sun, without a hat, is a dangerous mix and a can safely say, i was pretty exhausted after summiting another 3 mountains.
Esk Pike (885m)
Great End (910m)
Scafell Pike (978m - Tallest mountain in England)
This trip, although climbing the wrong mountain and forgetting some basics (like a hat!), has given me a huge amount of confidence in being comfortable when isolated out in the mountains. Still lots to fix, but more on that later.

Hey came across your channel few days ago and just wanted to say great content. I've already watched half your videos 👍 I love finding new channels and yours has me hooked and is inspiring me to get over my doubts and fears of getting out there and doing lone adventures like you do. Can't wait to check out your new videos keep up the great work and congratulations on your lates video nearly 2k veiws that's awesome 👍
Geoff you’re a hero! Was up Crib Goch yesterday when your comment came through and really helped push me on 🫡. Definitely recommend giving to solo adventuring a go. It builds a completely different mindset when you only have yourself to talk too 😂. Trick is start easy then go bigger as you get more comfortable with it. Happy to give you any pointers too, just send me a message 👍
Great trip, well filmed, very enjoyable to watch.
Thanks for posting.
Cheers Barry, glad you enjoyed it!
Its a wonderful place and a very beautiful video you made from the trip.Enjoyed it very much. Have a great weekend.
Thank you so much! Really glad to hear you enjoyed watching (does make carrying all the camera equipment worth the effort!)
Class this!! It’s an absolute treat when you come across a channel you’ve not seen before! I’ll look forward to watching more!! Cracking! ATB mark 🤝
Cheers mate, really appreciate it. It’s amazing when you start digging how many amazing channels are on this platform 🎉
Stunning views Matt, but it did look like it was a gruelling hike in some places! I'm glad you looked happier from the middle than you did at the beginning :)
Takes a while to get into the swing of it! Thank you for watching!!! 🙌
Great hiking vibes mate, the intro instantly got me hooked and the scenery of the LD always amazes me looks so beautiful out there. Camping spots are super cozy and remote, great video! Looking forward to following your future adventures. Happy trails, Mario
Absolute legend Mario thank you! There’s so much more of the LD I need to explore now (just need the time to do it)
Its always mind boggling when you look at distance covered after a good tab where everything looks on a massive scale then you realise its only been 4 and a half miles :) Great vid, new subscriber.
I always think that! Looking off at the horizon thinking “man, I’ve done loads” then realising it’s actually not the far 😂. Thanks for the sub, really appreciate it.
@@mr_adventures the bigger the mountain range the more that seems...i have spent a full day just walking uphill in one direction in some places and thats soul destroying :(
Good effort mate, not long off a wild camp up there myself. Might see you around 👍🏼
Nice! Where abouts where you thinking of going?
First time watching you, a great video and well put together with some of my favourite places but sorry to say the music spoilt it a little bit for me.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it. The music does split opinions sometimes, I do like the all natural more ASMR type channels I’ve seen and might have to try it. Unfortunately, I have yet to invest in a mic so sometimes I have to put music on just to cover the bad audio. Really appreciate the feedback buddy 🙏
Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland is the largest lake in the UK, but not as pretty!
Thank you!! I did think that was wrong, should probably do more research before visiting an area haha. Windmere is gorgeous but wouldn’t mind going for a paddle out on Louth Neagh!
Enjoyable video , maybe could have spent a bit more time with the views . Thanks and Subscribed .
I did think that as I was editing it, was so busy enjoying the views myself I forgot to share them 🤦♂️. Don’t worry, I’ll make extra effort with the next one! Thanks for the feedback and the sub, you legend!
