You’re a credit collecting all that crap others couldn’t be arsed bringing home. Good lad.
What a good guy you are! Shame on people leaving all that rubbish...
If every hiker and wild camper picked up a couple of bits of rubbish on each trip there'd be none. I know we shouldn't have to but some folk don't know how to behave in the countryside. Bravo mate, good work. 👍
I THINK IT'S GREAT YOU CARE ENOUGH TO DO IT, AND SHAME ON THOSE WHO LEFT THE STUFF BEHIND.
Good on you for clearing the place up. And as someone who lives in the Baltic states it always makes chuckle when someone says the weather is 'Baltic'. It's Baltic here 365 days of the year! Keep up the good work, I really enjoy your videos and your love of the countryside.
Here that stuff is called flagging tape, normally hi-vis orange. Originally for marking trees for cutting, now used by anyone that wants to mark a trail. If you don't want to navigate at least take the tape home with you when your done. Thanks for cleaning up the mess.
At the risk of sounding like ya ma.. but GLOVES. Where are your gloves..😊😂😂😂
😄 I've got them on the shopping list
Regarding your comment this isn't exciting content, my brother that's why I'm here.
There enough high energy content on CZcams and I watch you to relax. It really helps lower the blood pressure. Keep doing your thing and we'll keep watching
Cheers Grant, I really appreciate it 🍀
Well done you - it's a shame some people have such little respect for the great outdoors.
Seeing you in your element Jason brings such a smile to my face...especially after all that you have endured with your back pain in recent months. Better still...seeing that big kid in you come out while tromping through the woods. Brings out my own inner kid. Nothing but joy for me coming from you - with thanks buddy!
Well done for all your litter picking 👍 nice to see your local woodland, very beautiful
You are doing gods own work there. Fair play to you
Plastic bottles in nature drive me nuts! I dont like so-called "fairy trees" either or decorating living trees with plastic baubles at Christmas and the excuse that it's nice for the kids is a load of crap. Get them to appreciate nature in its natural state and cultivate their imagination without brightly coloured plastic! Same with the orienteering marks if that's what they were. Make marks but use biodegradable materials or clear it away afterwards. Fair play to you for hauling it out. It's a good workout. It's like plogging I think, a combo of jogging and picking up rubbish. They do it in Sweden.
I've never heard of plogging but I've been back since to take what I had left behind. I spent 5 hours hauling all sorts of crap out of the woods that day and the way I saw it, it was exercise for me, fresh air and it made me feel really good to see it all removed. If it means that one little bird doesn't have to encounter it again then I'm happy out.
You are a legend, Jason. Its a pity there are not more conscientious people like you in the world. It would be a better place.
Thanks a mill, I'll try to keep doing the little bit that I can 👍
@RamblingOn have you removed some of your hiking videos? I thought you had one up on the knockmealdowns that i watched before. I was looking for inspiration for the weekend but could not find it.
@@Macswiney I might have done, I'll pop it back up for you 👍
Fair play, thanks for the video and good to see you out and about. That is what woodland walking in Ireland is like, sinking up to your bits in bog and suddenly finding the patch of heather goes down 2ft when your stand on it....😂
Your enthusiasm for the places you go and the enjoyment you get from doing the simple things, like just finding out what is around the next corner, keeps your videos interesting mate. Glad to see your back's getting better. Just take it easy & don't overdo it. i think that it's bloody disgusting people dumping and leaving all their rubbish around. This is the reason why people lose their rambling rights on land. Thanks for taking us along on your walk - it looks a beautiful place you go.
The simple things are often the best, I've a whole lot more places to explore so it will be interesting to see what we find out there
@@RamblingOn I hope that you take us along with you when you go
Respect for your tidying up, nice 1. I do myself
Great effort, well done for looking after your environment
Good on you lad. You deserve to enjoy your time in nature peacefully too. 🏴🙏😀
Your absolutely brilliant, fair play, love watching. ❤❤
When striking a flint and steel, you should move the flint and not the steel, you get a bigger hotter spark.
Oh well played, Sir! Good on you.❤❤❤
Always great to bring a Swiss army knife, and a spare lighter😅😅😅 killed me😂❤
Good on you mate for collecting all that rubbish. Cheers from New Zealand.
So much for the Leave No Trace ethos, when someone leaves plastic markers like that.
If you take it you'll be happy with yourself if you leave it you'll be on a guilt trip saying to yourself I should of took it up to you 😏 good video yet again well done 👏
Fair play Jason. Since I started watching your videos, I go out with my 8 year old litter picking in our local park. Can't stand looking at it, it spoils it. That Lilt can had the old ring-pull top. They stopped making them in the late 80s!
I found a can like that in the Comeragh mountains a few months back, it's mad to think how long it has sat there. Fair play to you both for heading out litter picking 🙌
Great video, Jason, and fair play to you for picking all that rubbish.
Some ejits about hi leaving all that rubbish in the woods fair play fella for taking all that out with you these people leaving all the stuff need to learn the term leave no trace not there rubbish 👍 from up north
That was a mucky one Jason! 😲🫡
Jason, that was some interesting off track exploring👍Old harvested commercial forestry ground is really tricky as you say. That 'childlike' freedom in exploring is definitely a thing - like the big adventure and element of risk climbing trees when I was younger😊 Always cool to make a difference removing litter items♻ from outdoor places (including exhaust pipes😊) and to highlight the issue which might educate others👍
Cheers Gerry, I love exploring the woods like that but it can be a bit dodgy sometimes. I have your most recent video saved for later, looking forward to seeing it 🍀
Stunning woods just some people spoil it by leaving they rubbish everywhere but fair play to you mate much respect 👍🏻
Cracking video pal. Loving the forest rambles. Well done on taking all that stuff out of the woods. Horrible to see. Great job man and well edited.
I've been back sine and found even more, I barely put a dent in it 😄
Fair play. It’s got me thinking of the last few times I’ve been out and seen all the rubbish only I’ve had nothing with me to bring it back.
Great work Jason, I'd say some of that stuff is a long time there
I've always thought the plastic on the trees were out there by people like the woodland trust, as a way of marking dead trees or something similar? I'm guessing but just assumed it was something like that. Or some kind of surveillance on growth or something? Not 100% sure mind but orienteering sounds about right. Shame they use plastic! Good to see you back out and about. Cheers
Fair play taking all the rubbish. It’s a shame others can’t. (Just come across your channel but will definitely check out more of your vids) 👍
god it’s like a trash truck exploded passing through those wood last year.
Good on you for being so environmentally aware and tidy . I am like that as well. I am wondering if when you have been out on a tidy up , have you found anything that you have kept . I once found a brand new bushcraft axe and a pair of walking poles which I still have after several years. I also once found what I thought was an abandoned tent . The nosey me had to have a look inside and found a dead man. The police thought he had died of a drugs overdose and died during the night . They suggested that I should see a counsellor to sort myself out and then I told them I worked for an undertaker and I went out collecting dead bodies. The officer was not a happy chappy after I told him that , lol . Cracking video Mate and keep up the great work.
😄 I hope I never come across that when I'm out and about but to be fair I handle dead bodies in work from time to time so it probably wouldn't bother me. I went back out for the stuff that I left behind and ended up cutting the groundsheet off the tent to use as a protective cover in my car. I hope to do a lot more tidying up in the future so it will come in handy. Other than that I haven't found anything that I ended up keeping
Well done!
The amount of fly tipping Ive seen on Coilte land is unbelievable. Sometimes you would need a rruck to remove it.
I usually carry a dry bag for rubbish. The amount of people who leave banana skins and orange peel at trig points is terrible. It takes years to disappear.
I do the same, I clip a dry bag onto the strap of my backpack for rubbish. Those banana skins and orange peels are terrible but discarded tissues are everywhere too.
There's no end to it really
Fair play Jason 👌 The rubbish is bad enough but the drums and the plastic bags (white outside/black inside) are forest waste. The bags are what they put the seedlings for planting in to and the drums are oil etc for chainsaws and other equipment. Those really piss me off as Coillte are supposed to be big LNT Ireland supporters yet they create so much crap it's unreal 😡
I don't think the plastic tags are for orienteering. Competitors don't usually follow a set course like that. I'd say it's more likely to be an adventure race of some sort. If it was me I'd try and find out who held it and shame them into clearing it up themselves. If they could be bothered to go out and mark the route then they should be able to clear them again! They've made a real horlicks of the ground too, it's a mess!
Actually the adventure race sounds more like it, it's very soft ground up there so it's not great.
I reckon I'll be back there doing the job for them, I was trying to justify it in my head, think of the children... 😄 It still bothers me regardless
Happy to see you out and about, hope you're not in pain. Take care Brother!
Great video Jason. Thanks for sharing todays adventure. Take it easy on those Creme Egg Bars 😏
at 26:00 that bag that says MORE FOR YOU… oh, please no. just-no… and they say golf is a good walk spoiled. Good on, you, Jason.
Heroic effort collecting all that trash! I always pick up a few bits but not on that scale. Good to see you back out....mind yer back comrade.
Cheers Andy 🍀
@@RamblingOn BTW, where was that wood with all the trash in? I don't find quite so much down my way (Tipperary)
@@andydawson5587 it's up in the Slieve blooms, there's one road up there and I swear I've never seen so much litter on a road in all my life
Excellent trek ....your braver than i am...i would definetly wear thick goretex gaiters...
Shame about the litter...unfortunatly a world wide problem...very sad.
Never forget the shock we got after visiting a small Scottish isle....the beach litter was horrendous😢.
And watching your vid makes me feel shame at the times in life when ive not respected nature....young and foolish.
Thankyou....oh....gloves...mate ya never know whats in that discarded litter...careful !
Cheers...good video.
I have been out since without gloves again but the whole time thought to myself "I really need gloves" 😄 I've bought some since so it might save me an injury. Thanks a mill 🍀
The red tape are Route markers
People are complete idiots!
You're a hero!
That red tape definitely has nothing to do with orienteering as a route is never marked like that. The tape certainly looks like it's marking a route. Maybe it was for a trail race or something like that. I would hate to think scouts would leave them as I've been scouting for over 10 years & leave no trace is always adhered to. Massive well done for your clean up.
A trail race definitely makes more sense and I reckon a scout group leader wouldn't need to mark a trail in that way.
Absolutely shocking the amount of rubbish you recovered from those woods. What is wrong with people? 😠 Well done you though, you certainly deserve those biscuits when you're out! 👍
Jason another great video , thanks , where is your seat / chair from, love that piece of equipment.
The chair is a crazy creek hex 2.0. It's a great little chair
I did enjoy your little jaunt in the woods. Maybe the folks doing the orienteering thing will come back and clean up their plastic flags? Thanks for trying to keep your little corner of the universe cleaner.
I'm not sure but I might do the job for them someday 😄
@@RamblingOn 🤣🤣🤣
Wish they would teach ecology in schools along with more public service announcements…
Great job, but watch your back. Don’t understand people that leave garbage like that. Some even seemed to be agricultural refuse from the foresters.
Good to see you back out Jason.
People are just idiots.
Well done for picking all that 💩up.
Atb Graham
Thanks Graham, I've been back since and I'm happier now that it's not out there anymore. I hope all is well with you 🍀
@@RamblingOn
Yeh Jason all good thanks.
No camping last couple of months it not stop raining !🌧️💧☔️ 🤦♂️🤣
@@grahamscothern4319 😄 same over here, the rain is never too far away
Why the feck do people leave their crap in the countryside? Well done for clearing up.
Laziness I reckon
Subbed😊
Thanks for sticking with me 🍀
Your doing the Lord's work. Do you mind if I ask where this is?
This is up in the Slieve Bloom Mountains 🍀
@@RamblingOn Cheers, will try get up there if I can. Thanks for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate it.
fair play ted..its a rubbish truck u need to have.
Cheers Ted
Are you in the Slieve Blooms Jason?
Yeah this was up in the Slieve Blooms, I've been back since to pick up the bits I left behind
What was with the steam coming off that exhaust? 😅
I honestly have no idea 😄
That's a lot rubbish, well done, but you are little crazy. The markers in the trees, well they are there to lure would be campers along route, then once dark the campers are taken. Where do you think the owner of the abandoned tent went, hey. Keep out of them there woods. Have you not watched Deliverance, squeal piggy squeal !!! Scary. Great vid by way.
😄 being a little crazy isn't a bad thing 😉
Excellent video. It's a shame you are having to pick up other people's crap, but thankyou
Cheers Simon 🍀
Well done its just a shame you had to do it
