  • Finally after 4 months away from the game, I met up with some good friends Gav and Gez from ‪@boyzinthewood1‬, who drove up from South Wales for Gav's 40th birthday for a weekend camp in the Lake District,
    setting off with no real plans set in stone but plenty of options on the table, we headed to the North western fells.
    Parking at Newlands House we ascended the short but steep ascent to the summit of High Snockrigg, This is a fell which most people ignore with it not being a Wainwright but I can assure you, caught on the right day you will find it hard to beat for a beautiful sunset over the iconic Buttermere.
    With plenty of food, beer, amazing views and banter, why not join us for our first nights camp of an amazing weekend, poor yourself a beer, sit down and enjoy !!!

    Bloody hell you got some canny weather mind, where's that been hiding and yes - it does look steep! That was amazing place to pitch the tents, the views were unreal and well worth waiting for. Talking about amazing that steak had mu mouth watering, I would have preferred mushrooms but not really complaining, especially with birthday cake for pudding, dry or not I was be more than happy! Not a bad morning to wake up too and agree on the jet boil, overrated, too bulky and far too much brass but have to say, a pub dinner sounds awesome, cheers Alan

      Hiya Al, oh don’t worry, the next nights weather turned for us 😂
      It was a short but steep slog up there, I really struggled to be honest, especially with the bag it was over 30kg…
      Well worth it though, and just good to be back out

  • @malgreenley-lakedistrictvi5230

    Really good video, Alan. As you said, High Snockrigg is largely bypassed, but it really does have some of the best views of Buttermere you will find. I was up there a few weeks ago, but didn’t get the good conditions you had. Your drone footage is excellent, it gives such a great perspective - and I love that effect at 9:20. That was a really nice touch with the birthday cake. I’m with Gez on the Jetboil - way too bulky for me - it’s enormous! 16:15! I thought my pack was big and heavy - yours looks like torture! Really enjoyed this one. Keep ‘em coming!

    • @54DegreesNorth
      @54DegreesNorth  Před rokem +1

      hiya Mal, High Snockrigg is one of my fav camping spots, although more people are starting to notice it,
      the drone definitely gives you the views you just cant get any other way, I couldn't let a man go without cake on his birthday now could I lol
      my bag is stupidly heavy, my. main goal this summer is to get the weight down
