- Solo winter summit camp in my Hilleberg Allak 2 on England’s highest mountain; Scafell Pike.
Had an amazing night on my favourite mountain at the weekend. Dragged my 18kg rucksack with full winter gear to 3140ft just below the summit of Scafell Pike. An amazing night of solitude on England’s highest mountain. Stunningly beautiful but brutal winter mountain conditions in the morning.

You know more than most of us and you still say “.. if you’ve got any advice for me..” humility is my favourite human characteristic 👏🗻
🙏🏻
Well said about those who say ‘it’s only the Lake District!!’ Words can’t describe how good this video is!!!
Big thanks UP. Means a lot 🙏🏻
Bloody hell Dave, that was an absolute masterpiece! The conditions in the morning were everything we hope for on these outings. I loved the shots on the summit in the morning! We are so fortunate to be around in this era where the technology is light and compact enough for us to capture moments like these. Cracking job 👏👏👏 ATB, James.
Much appreciated James. Thank you 🙏🏻
Well !! What can I say Dave. This has to be one of the best videos ever. My partner Jill and I admire your determination. Some of that footage shows Antarctic conditions. True entertainment. One request though, please tell us day and date during your introduction as it's good to put a timeline to your adventures. Thanks Dave. Kind regards John and Jill.
Big thanks guys. Really appreciate that 🙏🏻
Excellent video! Having England's highest peak to yourself is an added bonus.
Absolutely Mal 🙏🏻
You are truly in your element up there and it shows on your face.
Stunning camp! Thanks for taking us along, your effort is very much appreciated❤
You should add a link where we could donate you a coffee or pint as a thankyou 👍
Big thanks and much appreciated 🙏🏻
Wow......awe inspiring stuff. We as Brits sometimes lose the absolute beauty we live amongst sometimes.
Big thanks Marc. It’s a beautiful place indeed 🙏🏻
Sitting up there in the dark stillness looks amazing
Thanks Chad. Was an amazing trip 🙏🏻. ATB
Brilliant! Thank you! Stunning with the snowfall. The sky was spectacular. That’s what I love about the Lakes, no light pollution and stunning night sky. I’m out every night I’m there as it’s incredible. Hope you stayed toastie warm! Look forward to your next video. 🙏🏻
Thank you Penny 🙏🏻
Brilliant as always mate, can’t believe that was an hour, flew by 👍🏼👍🏼
Take care bud.
Liam
Big thanks, man 🙏🏻
Nice to see a genuine vid rather than the Tubers that just want to go out in sponsered gear for the clickbait
Much appreciated 👍
Another great video Dave. Thanks from Dave
Another dynamite film Dave, thank you! That footage in the morning is just 🔥. Total legend
Big thanks John 🙏🏻
Total admiration Dave. I almost went over several times in the summer coming down with boots on so in snow and ice with a massive pack, wow. The views were incredible and so few times does it clear up top amazing. Well done what a camp and what a video. ATB Steve
Big thanks Steve. Glad you enjoyed it 👍😎
@@TheSoloSummiteer Amazing video Dave and as always looking forward to your next one!
I really appreciate the trouble you’ve taken to get to places and photograph and video some outstanding landscapes . Many very vivid reminders of places visited in younger days but alas can only watch on CZcams while caring for my partner with Alzheimer’s..
You may well have many cares in your audience enjoying the images you bring to their homes.Well done and thanks .
Big thanks for your comments Paul. Really appreciated. Take care - Dave 🙏🏻
Just amazing that your country has no trees, which would offer you a little cover from them winds you are always finding! I camp out at tree line in my winter trips at 10,250! nothing like camping in the winter months! Love your crushing winter trips in the freeze of England!
Much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it and best wishes 🙏🏻
Top stuff pal some proper conditions & temperatures there..fantastic stuff & the Palace looked & coped great by look of it..take care pal & see thi soon.
Cheers bud. Was a real adventure for sure. Catch up soon pal 🙏🏻
Great viewing. Born and bred there but left in my mid 20's. 40 yrs on and it brought back so many memories. Thanks for sharing.
That’s brilliant Kev. ATB 😎👍
I love the way you talk about the mountains and the Lake District. It’s my favourite place in the U.K. and I love walking in the fells. Keep up the great work, the way you shoot and stitch your videos together is perfect. Onwards and upwards mate!
Big thanks DW. Much appreciated 🙏🏻. ATB
Beautiful sunrise shot 🤗
Absolutely brilliant Dave!!!
Nice day for Dave good work buddy
Great walking.
Wow man Respect.. Great video pal, God bless...
Another cracking example of what its all about Dave . There's some new kids on the block when it comes to making quality videos on wildcamping and spending time in the hills , and you sir are definitely one of them . Keep doing what you're doing Dave . Neil .
Big thanks Neil 🙏🏻
