In this video I head out hiking in the Peak District to continue my Ethels challenge. With a backpack chocka with gear to show you, I head up Eldon Hill via the stunning cave dale and winnats pass which would be the 9th Ethel of the 95 challenge.

When I feel low I watch a Paul Messner or WildBeare video. Never fails to lift the mood. Thank you Paul.
I think grizzlies and and cougar should be introduced to the UK. You guys need some excitement.
Brilliant Paul yet again....I once sent the Mrs my gps coordinates she asked why I sent my bank details to her ... so I'm stuffed if out goes wrong 😂cheers Paul all the very best marra 😃🏕⛰👍
Tarps rule. Kept me out of the wind and rain over the weekend. Why wouldn't you
I never bother taking a bothy shelter, I pack a poncho instead. Big enough to cover you and your pack when sat down and double as your waterproofs. Just get one big enough to cover everything. I use the Mac pac poncho, 10000mm HH.
Other people is one of the reasons I always advocate carrying a stove of some kind, even something pocket sized like the BCB Fire Dragon. Weather in Britain can change in an instant, even more so on the hills, and being able to make a hot drink for yourself or anyone else getting caught out can be a morale booster or even a life saver in extreme cases.
There's an abandoned lead and silver mine near Loch Door, Galloway a bit like that. Places where it's wiser not to stray off the beaten track.I like to see gear gone over. Never considered a tarp since on our weekly recce hikes we tend not to linger for lunch. I carry an emergency 2 man bivvy tent for winter hikes. Mine has a thick black part either end for two bums to park or your pack and you. It's got a plastc window. A tarp might be a useful thing for my own wanders with my drone though - somewhere shady and sheltered to look at a screen. Flask for me and a pork pie or two does me well enough. I love lists, especially for holidays. Always bring a pack myself. Usually overkill with extras in case somebody is short. That was rare to watch thanks Paul, in the comfort of my settee as I nurse a man flu with a drop of Glayva 🙂 Purely medicinal you understand! Atb...Terry
Thanks for the great talk on Friday night at @alpkit big shakeout, wanted to say thanks in person but you were getting mobbed. Hope you had a great weekend.
I’m guilty of not making a list, forgot my mug a few camps ago. I do check weather though and carry spare food. I’ve got a Vango emergency shelter, it does the job though a bit bulky, only tend to carry that on day hikes now. I’ve been using Outdoor Active app recently, still take a paper map too but find it much easier on lesser trodden paths. I’m trying to find a paper map just of Kinder Scout, I wish OS hadn’t put it on the inside of the map, is like opening a kite every time I stop to check my position 😂
Cavedale and Winnats are both collapsed limestone caves, not glacial carves. About the only time I've used my O level in geology. Completely wrong shape mate. Otherwise cracking video.
I carry my storm shelter (the orange shelter) all year round.
Fantastic video! Your tarp shelter setup and bothy demonstration are incredibly informative and practical. I appreciate the attention to detail in your backpack loadout, too. Your expertise is evident, and it's evident that you've put a lot of thought into preparing for outdoor adventures. Thanks for sharing these valuable insights and tips!
Looked perfect sitting under the tarp, hot drink or hot food. Contents of backpack practical,better to be prepared.
I would consider myself a fairly experienced hiker and wildcamper but I love your videos.always some great content with something new. You are so natural on the camera and so down to earth. Really entertaining and relaxing watch thank you 😊
That sure is good walking country, and the views are not bad ether.
Having a tarp with you on a non overnight backpacking trip is something I didn't think about. Seams obvious now :) I have been in heavy rain on top of a mountain, trying to find some shelter for my home made drone (big old hexacopter). Found a bit of cover under a big rock and my brother and myself leaning over it to make a roof :P
I love your advice on items in your pack! Makes alot of sense! I can tell when those who have done this before give advice! Appreciated!!!
I had no idea New Jersey was so beautiful. Thanks!
Im camping in my new empty apartment tonight. Nothing but a cooler and my camping backpack. Will be fun..
That’s a great wee trip. Always love the alcohol stove. Can’t beat the smell and the waiting time. Adds to the comfort and mindfulness.
