Hi my name is Chris 🖐
I love being outdoors in nature!! Hiking, climbing, wildcamping and exploring everything this fantastic planet has to offer. With some gear reviews and real life tests, maybe the odd bit of bushcraft too 😏😉
I have had these hobbies for a while now but wanted to create a brand new channel so that I can have somewhere to log my adventures and share them along the way. My goal is to inspire others to get out on their own adventures and explore!!
I LOVE the great outdoors, so if you do too PLEASE consider SUBSCRIBING to my channel and lets enjoy the adventures together!
Take care everyone and THANK YOU!! 🙏🏼👍🏻😊🥰

In my experience if you use a surround wind shield of foil you will boil with one fuel block no problem.
Let's do some investigating 🔎
👏
Hi, just found out the River Arrow starts on Beacon Hill, does anyone know where?
Well said! 👍
I wonder what they would have done if you had told them you didn't think it was safe to hike back down the hill in the dark and you were staying put till the morning? Bailiffs and landowners have the legal right to use "reasonable force" to remove trespassers. I think a court might agree with you if you argued that using force in those circumstances was not reasonable,.Unless they were prepared to give you a lift back down on the quad bike.
Aw man really sorry about your drone. Good video all the same
Where’s that from? Thank you
Thanks for the demo. It looks like it will handle hexamine fuel tabs with some foil on the holed plate. Thank you for sharing 👍
I was up there yesterday and didn’t see a soul, I did set off at 6am though…….tickled me that ‘cause that’s exactly what I’m like when I’m out and I see loads of people 😂😂
I'm doing this in 3 weeks time, thank you for the video it's very helpful
Always a great walk, while i lived there, over the Lockdown period 2020, 😅 great place miss it now, as im not there now 😢❤
You didn't show the public car park a tennis ball throw from the trig point and the fake castle.
VERY GOOD WALKING VID, YOU HAVE CAPTURED THE ROUTE PROPERLY, AND THANK YOU, FOR NOT BEING TOTAL ENGLISH IN PRONUNCING THE WELSH NAMES BADLY, YOU DID IT FINE.
Haha thank you!! I did try my best to try and say them 😅 I am really happy to hear you enjoyed my video, I have done this route many times and with the conditions I was blessed with that day I thought it was a perfect time to share. Thank you so much for the kind words they are greatly appreciated 🙏🏼 I hope you are well and I wish you lots of safe and happy adventures in the great outdoors! Take care 😊🙏🏼 Chris ✌🏼
Excellent video 👌. Planning on a walk around Pen Y Fan tomorrow 18/2/24 😀 Just realised I did this walk back in 2016 , 😅
Hey!! Brilliant I hope you managed to have a great time of you went... and the 18th of Feb was my birthday too!! Haha Great little loop this 👍🏻 Thank you for the comment and I wish you many more safe and happy adventures 😊 Chris ✌🏼
Fucking wankers mate😊
Arse holes me and a friend went the other week fires galore around us and it clearly statesno camp fires or bbqs ruins it for everyone
Yes it is an absolute joke!! The last couple of years especially it just gets worse around this area. I have stopped going there now even to cut through enroute to any of the kinder area also as every time I do it leaves me aggravated with the things I see. I am sorry to hear you have been having similar experiences.. I hope you manage to find yourself some nice other beauty spots and thanks for the support in trying to prevent these 'arse holes' indeed. Thanks for the comment and I wish you lots of safe, happy and less annoying adventures 😊 Chris 🙏🏼✌🏼
HI mate, where can I get that background music please?
Hi mate all my music used is from Epidemic Sound 👍🏻 ... There is a subscription to not have a copyright claim though. Thanks for watching!! Take care... Chris 🙏🏼😊
Nice one mate. Absolute idiots. 🙏
Can you please give me exact location for this ?? Do i need to take any permission to stay in tent ?? Any wildlife danger at night ??
Camped up there a couple of years ago, we wont go back because its full of idiots with family tents/throw away bbqs and leaving bags and boxes of rubbish dumped in bushes. Makes my blood boil
It is ridiculous right! Every single time ive cut through that area in one way or another I've left annoyed snd aggravated. Won't be going back for the same reasons. I hope you have had and continue to have much better camps, hikes and experiences in the great outdoors after. Stay safe out there 🙏🏼 😊 Thanks for watching Chris 👍🏻
very cool !! Thanks i'm going to try the tabs to see if it boils my espresso faster on my next adventure!! i'll let you know !! there will be. video go sho !! thanks brother for the tips
Cool!! I really hope it works for you... if you do use the FireDragon cubes then make sure you have that tealight candle base (or similar) to catch the liquid. Definitely let me know I really hope it works out for you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thanks so much for watching I appreciate it very much 👊🏻 Take care 👍🏻👍🏻 Chris 😊
Thanks I will post a video ! 🔥
i maanaged to camp on bamford edge within the last 3 months , its a shame others ruin it for us wild campers that actually leave places as we found it ewtc!
Chris I've just rambled onto your channel from somewhere else subbed and left a note on my notepad to ask you (and I cant remember why other than trig points) whats the sort of basic kit for camping on Lundy Island for 3 nights? I went out this year on a "full day" trip tides right and max daylight but route marched it and want to do the 3 day stay and explore at a slower pace. what would be the basic and recommended equipment I would need to stay on Lundy for 3 nights?....theres a pub that we won't talk about as I have know idea how to cook! x
Your stealth camping needs a bit of work. Camp somewhere the rangers won't be like on top of a mountain.
Hey 👋🏻 I’ve just bought the bush box UL stove, made a cuppa on it last night with the trangia burner and kettle. It was good to see some proper food being cooked in it. Thank you for a great review video, ATB, Sarah
Excellent, I’m 57 over weight and always telling myself I cannot do uphill walks. Well this week I did Pen y fan and not the easy route up.. Your right, we are all capable of more than we think. Compared to your walk mine was not in same class, but to me it was my Everest.
Well done pal!
Very informative 👏🏼
Thank you for clicking on my video and taking the time to watch 🙏🏼 I hope it helped you in one way or another, even a bit 👍🏻 ATB... Chris 🫶🏻
Just been up to fan y big today, very cloudy anyone know what the plaque says
Great video but pisses me off you got moved on. Saying some people ruin it just isn't enough for me.
i don`t get it - your logo and headline is the mountain tops, but you couldn`t climb up a bit of wet heather?
I did this exact route Sunday but in reverse! (Went up the scree). Couldn't resist a dip in the lake too
Brilliant!! I had to climb up a few parts to come back down for the camera haha (and also some clips I didnt include) but as I was doing so thought this would be fun to go up so will have to go back and give it a blast! The lake is gorgeous glad you had a good time and thank you so much for clicking on my video and watching 🙏🏼☺️ ATB... Chris 👍🏻
Cool vid mate.. just subbed you 😊
Hey mate!! THANM YOU so much glad you liked it and FYI got it back now ☺️😝 Cheers for the sub mate you are absolutely awesome 🙏🏼🙏🏼 ATB... Chris
I've just realised I've seen you before with my other channel, you did that wild camp on Bamford edge and got moved on 😊 that's what got me to try it luckily I didn't lol Still you made it a great vid to watch
Great video
Thank you!! ✌🏼
Really enjoyed watching.. what a great spot for a camp. Im just starting out wildcamping and have been making a list of possible spots, mainly on top of hills, but this vid has shown me there are other beautiful possibilities.. and also, reading your comments gave me good info on the parking situation too. Brilliant mate, thanks. 👍 Liked and subbed. 💚
Hi! Huge apologies for the delayed reply, I've had all sorts of madness going on my end lately... THANK YOU so much for clicking on my video and watching, I really am glad you enjoyed it 😁 As much I love elevation camps you definitely don't have to go high up to find some beautiful pitches for sure! Anything you wana ask please message me or find me on Instagram if you have it and send a message on there. Take it easy and all the best on your camps! Chris ✌🏼👍🏻
@@theheightoflife What a really nice and kind reply mate, thanks for that! 👍 Yeah, I'm about to do our second wildcamp, on a big hill.. waking up in the clouds was a bit special. Your vids have helped with getting a bit more clued up. Yeah, I'll check you out on insta.. Nice one mate. 👍💚
Where is this place plz ?
Hi! This is the Peak District National Park 👍🏻 Just off the Snake Pass
@@theheightoflife thanks bro
Hello, I have enjoyed every bit of this video, the Sunset, the Sunrise and the Drone footage, excellent work. I have a request to make, would you be able to show us your equipments please like; camp light, GoPro, voice recoding system, battery recharging system, Which Drone was it? Highly appreciate. Ta.. oh yeh keep up the good work...
Great video, thank you. Doing my first wild camp next month. Do you have a grid reference for this spot? Trying to find it on a map.
Hi thank you for taking the time to watch!! I don't unfortunately but I could describe it in a private message. Bear in mind the Snake Woodlands area is being patrolled heavily at the moment as there have been a lot of people damaging the area, lighting irresponsible fires and harming livestock unfortunately. So I've heard a lot of rangers have been about.... this was about 30 or 40 min walk after the main snake woods though and tucked down behind a tree line so could potentially be ok. ATB
@@theheightoflife Thanks, would be keen to get the description of location in a private message or screen shot of map location. Thanks for taking the time to reply
I wish I had the Either Light but am very pleased with my Trekology!
The Trekology pads are awesome 👌🏻 thanks for watching. ATB
Can't find Trangia Triangle in the States. This might be a good alternative?
Hey lovely!!! I really hope you’re ok?! What a beautiful area!!! Such a stunning flat spot by the river!! Oh no!!! Gutted your drone crashed!! What a nightmare!!! I’d absolutely love to have a drone but see so many people who lose them I think I’d be too scared to use it! Really gutted for you lovely xx
Great video!
Cracking video
I’m doing this walk with my son next week, our annual father & son hike. We did Snowdon in September and fancied a nice change. Really appreciate this video, top quality, thank you 👍
Ffs !!!!! It does my fu**ing head in, how stupid are people !!!
Nice one Chris sorry about the drone mate good to see you out again keep on smiling 😊
get some blumin LARD in there, flippin spray oil is rubbish ;)
brilliant
Hi Chris, bit behind the times on catching this video but it’s great. Me and my wife were there a few years ago and sorry to admit we drove up, had a look and drove back!!!! I don’t always take the lazy option and you may remember seeing me when you did the Penyfan horseshoe a while back. Fantastic video of your hike bringing back memories of wonderful times in Greece. If you fancy a similar challenge have a look at Mt Kerkis on Samos
I was there before after watching your previous episode, fantastic place. I just hope the others will keep it that way. Couldn't believe how much waste people leave in snake pass woodland...
