HELVELLYN - A Winter Climb and WILD CAMP in 4k on my favorite Lake District mountain.

Although I drove up intending to go to Blencathra, film the lesser known Doddick Fell, and climb a wintery Sharp Edge. On approach it was obvious the snow had started to disappear at quite a rate over the last few days. I turned down to Glenridding to make it up as I went along. Looking for winter. I knew many places Id like to go. And this film is the result.
Thanks for watching, and putting up with my chat. But I cant help it, as I enjoy the films I watch with plenty of waffle !
Stay safe out there and please keep the chat and comments up. Its great to hear from you guys.
John

    Great film pal. Stunning winter conditions. Really enjoyed it. I’ve pitched there myself a couple of times. Nice to see someone else blowing a bit with a winter pack. Thought it was just me 🥵😁. I love it when the sky clears like that. So special 🙏🏻. Really nice to see an honest, drama free, no BS video for a change. It’s becoming quite rare on KZread these days. ATB

    Yeh that's really nice of you to say. I did mention gear 🫣. But I must say there's way too much drama and gear reviews. I just wanna share the awesomeness of the mountains 👍. Keep it up mate and thanks again. 🤗

    Appreciated 👍. Thanks for that, It is very slow 🤭. But hey, I enjoy sharing ant the creative part of my hobby so it's all good. I'm too slow getting them out at the moment so that's probably my downfall and most people don't look at the back catalogue after seeing a vid....anyhow, yup. I LOVE Helvellyn and it was about time I camped on it 🤣. Conditions were almost perfect
