Hi Athena. Another lovely video. I see you are reading Braiding Sweetgrass - really great book that everyone should read and its message is most definately one we need more than ever.

A really lovely video, thank you!! I need to go there it looks fantastic

What a perfect relaxing time. Fantastic video thanks for sharing

Absolutely loved this video! Looked like a great trip x

Thanks Athena. Beautiful looking spot. Cheers Ian

This video was so lovely to watch and has inspired me to go visit the Peak District even more and make those wraps 😊 Can't wait for your Ramble guidebook to come out! I am also reading Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin at the moment and absolutely love it, the book makes me appreciate everything so much more, hope you are enjoying it too. 🍓 Thank you for sharing this video.

Your dog is adorable!

Love watching your vids they have really inspired me to get back in to camping and hiking since i stopped 12 years or so ago when my dad was diagnosed with dementia so i left being a cub leader and adventure scouts behind to care for him he sadly passed away in December of 2018. But when he was younger he was in scouts and done alot of camping and hiking of the peaks and lakes iv even got old letters and post cards what he sent my gran all them years ago. i think he would want me to get back in to camping and hiking iv just purchased a ruck sack its a eurohike 65 litre but a friend has also given me a 85 litre mountain warehouse which i would use more of a winter bag and also for maybe longer trips plus i love the peak district as i did my dofe bronze up in the peaks.

Hi Athena. What was the campsite called? Thanks 🏕

You can buy a little device called a sun compass, that will enable you to know which direction the Sun will rise and set in. That way, you can set your tripod up in advance and not miss any shots. They don't cost very much and weigh about the same as an ordinary compass. They let you know where the Sun rises and sets for each month of the year. It just helps plan the shots for a pleasing composition.

The web site noted on the plastic base plate is :- www.flightlogistics.tv In the intervening years an app has probably been produced to do the same thing. This is just a compass mounted on a plastic base plate, with angles marked on it for sunrise and sunset for each month of the year. I have found it very useful over the years. It is accurate to within a few degrees, so makes composing a landscape photo much easier.
