You NEED To See This!! Old Man Of Coniston Solo Summit Camp - The Lake District UK / Hilleberg Soulo

You NEED To See This!! Old Man Of Coniston Solo Summit Camp - The Lake District UK / Hilleberg Soulo
So back into the Lake District this week for a solo summit wild camp on the summit of The Old Man Of Coniston at 803m. Took the Hilleberg Soulo with me so it can be on a summit where it belongs.
Had fantastic weather, was extremely hot at the start of the hike even though it was late afternoon. So worth it though for the views at the top and got to see both golden hours.
Thank you so much for taking the time to click on the video and watch, really appreciated.
Please hit the thumbs up button if you enjoyed it.
Take care.... Chris

We have a soft spot for the old man, it's such a lovely climb, last time we were up there it was just before Christmas and it was minus 9 at the top🥶. Looked a little different the day you were up there😎. Enjoyed the swig and the trig (you can have that if you like hahaha😆). Glad you have been able to do a few videos in the lakes lately.

I cut through back over the old man summit earlier on in the year enroute back from somewhere else, was around 1500 and there was about 35 - 45 people up there I reckon, was well busy! The old man in great and there are a few more spots round there. If its going to be your first wildcamp and you are going to do it on a summit then please make sure you have the correct gear and tent as you never know what the weather will do in the mountains. I usually check it on three different platforms, The Met Office, MWIS (Mountain Weather Information Service) and Mountain Weather Forecast. The last one is a good site as you ca actually enter the name of the hill or Mountain you are going and it tells you the different weathers at different elevation. It does constantly update as things change so keep an eye out. If you havent doen anything like this before then personally id prob either go a bit lower down or at a tarn maybe. Not sure if you watched my camp at Red Tarn under Helvellyn? That is an awesome place to camp and have amazing scenery. Old man or other summits are fantastic just make sure you are prepped for the wind etc to change, just incase. Let me know how you get on!! Have fun and enjoy it 😁😁🏕🏕🙏🏼🙏🏼

    @@theheightoflife never done Ben Nevis but have been in the region. I can highly recommend The Isle of Skye and also the Cairngorms (Aviemore is a great Basecamp). Enjoy, wherever you end up👍
