    Many thanks for this video. A visual guide to pastures new. Great camera work, and informative dialogue. Love the back shots looking at ground covered and the change in scenery this creates. Seeing the fells from different angles. Another belter!

      Thanks Peter. This is a great walk and one of our favourites. I have walked up to Pillar from Ennerdale but much prefer the route from Wasdale Head as shown in this video. The views throughout the walk are superb. Thanks again for watching & for the positive comments, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

    Thankyou, great video, done this route several times over the years, in not so clement weather, usually do the horseshoe including Little Scoat Fell, Red Pike & down the side of Yewbarrow. The view from Red Pike is arguably one of the beast views in the lakes as it takes in Wastwater and the fells behind Whin Rigg & Illgill Head, if you haven't done the horseshoe, its a lovely walk. The best memory though associated with that walk for us, was taking our two border collies with us Bill & Molly, which are now sadly long gone, beautiful place with wonderful memories. Well timed and spaced video shots as well, which helps to keep your attentions. thanks again. Ian

      Hi Ian, thanks for the positive feedback on the video, it is appreciated. We walked part of the Horseshoe a couple of months back, walking up Yewbarrow, Red Pike, Scoat Fell, Steeple and then went over to Haycock instead of Pillar. We did not get the views from Yewbarrow & Red Pike due to cloud cover, but the clouds cleared once we got to Scoat Fell, so got some great views for the rest of the walk. We wanted to do do Pillar as a separate walk to take it all in, that is why we went back to do the walk in this video. We were pleased we did as it was a superb day with great views all the way. Pleased you have those treasured memories with Bill & Molly, your two Border Collies. Thanks for watching & again for the kind comments. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

    Great video. I did the exact same trip on 2nd sept. Camped on pillar, woke up to a cracking cloud inversion, the followed the route around to Yewbarrow (stopping at scout tarn for water). We camped on. Yewbarrow also, then came down to overbeck bridge. Going up and down Yewbarrow was quite daunting but ok in good weather. Thanks for posting. 👍👍

Camping on Yewbarrow must have been great aswell! Yewbarrow is a tricky fell to climb. Thanks for watching & for the kind comments, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

    My, Eddie you've captured some beautiful scenery there. That's a cracking photo of you stood on that rock with the mountains behind. Carol never fails to put a smile on my face when she touches these summit cairns, she he looks so happy :o) Ennerdale looks amazing from where you were. Really stunning views. Did your Great End walk a couple of weeks back and had a great day. That's a cracking walk too. I see what you mean about coming down off Seathwaite Fell. It's a bit steep but I find it so much easier with the walking poles extended. There was plenty of ground to dig them into. Still not got round to Yewbarrow yet. I'm still humming and hawing about it. Oh, by the way enjoyed watching you and Alan going up Blencathra looked great fun. Cheers Eddie and thanks for posting. David

      @eddiecaisley5746  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi David, this was another great walk with superb views all the way. Carol is always so happy to reach the summits (as well as myself) Pleased you did the Great End walk and had a good day, it is steep coming down from Seathwaite Fell, so pleased you found it easier with the walking poles. Yewbarrow is a fell that a lot of people ( including myself) put off doing, it is tricky heading up, but gives you a great sense of achievement when you reach the summit. I had a great day with Alan on Blencathra, but disappointed we had no views from the summit. Carol and myself where back in Wasdale on Thursday and did Great Gable & Kirk Fell, another superb walk.

      Hi Stuart, we really enjoyed this walk, it had great views all the way. It is a walk we would definitely do again. I have my GoPro set to record with a flat colour profile and then I adjust the colours etc during editing. It has been trial & error, but now I have my settings wrote down, which I tend to use for each video. I find
      sometimes the GoPro standard settings can be over saturated with a lot of contrast for my taste. Recording with the GoPro Protune set to flat gives a lot of flexibility during editing. I suppose it boils down to personal taste. Thanks for watching & for the kind comments, it is always appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.
