Most Striding Edge videos cut out certain bits, this is for me, the best one I’ve seen. This will be very helpful for a lot of first timers, especially the bad step area, and you both did it using the ridge and path, spot on Matt 👍
Thank you Tony, Dom had only been over striding edge once over 10 years ago and since then she gets a bit of vertigo, I knew it had an easier path below the top as I've been on numerous times, I thought explaining this would help other people out who are a bit scared of the exposure, I've seen people panic in the past and if they had the information to hand they could of definitely avoided the bad parts 👍 thanks for watching mate 🤙🤙
I thought you killed 2 birds with one stone there pal. Showing your self on the ridge and your partner on lower path. No one has ever done that, and showing your partner go round the chimney is spot on. I thought you covered everything there. 👍
Nice one John, she was worried about going over for the first time in over 10 years but I knew there was an easier path having been over myself many times, thought it would be useful for others in the same boat as no one ever mentions it, thank you for the feedback mate 🤙
It was Monday a couple of weeks back bro, Dom had somehow talked herself out of Striding Edge, even though it was her first route up to Helvellyn with you and Alex years back, we have been waiting until a weekday opportunity come up with good weather knowing it would be dead 👌👌👌
@@MattDoesMountains should sleep in the car overnight, I think you can get something called a Rear Seat Delete for those Corsas, so you can sleep in it, save that early drive up.
Enjoyed that mate. This was the second walk we did before I started the channel and the one that made us ditch Marshall's book😂 Absolute slog that one, great effort!
Thanks mate, this is definitely one of the hardest routes from the marshall book, even though I've pretty much done the route in the past, adding the extra 2/3 fells on wrote me off 😅 glad it's out the way 🤙
Great video as per usual Matt👏 I did this route second for my Wainwright bagging mission. I thought Stuart Marshall must of been playing abit of a joke on people putting it first in his book!
Wow , what a fab day , fantastic scenery and views , thanks for sharing a great vid 🙏🙏🙏
It was such a good day mate 😍 thanks for watching 👍

Great videos Matt. Good to hear 'people' instead of the annoying 'you guys' too!
