Spent the day climbing Bowfell, come home to watch Glenn spend his day climbing Bowfell. Perfect day ❤

@LancashireLadWalks 6 месяцев назад

really wanting to hike up here! I did another Black Crag walk a few weeks back, over towards Lingmoor Fell. Had my eye on Bow Fell all bloomin day haha.

@davidgeorge141 6 месяцев назад

Quite simply the best video you have ever made. Incredible! Thanks for taking us with you.

@flyingvisit2 6 дней назад

Being dead would certainly not be good! 😵‍💫The sound of your footsteps in the snow is refreshing. We appreciate you going to places that some of us can't go. You have sense enough not to tread a dangerous path and still maintain a great vlog content, loving the wintery landscape, You are a very fortunate man to experience these magnificent mountains. Thank you Glenn.

@Paul-of3ut 6 месяцев назад

This should be a tv series outstanding as usual. Thankyou.

@LancashireLadWalks 6 месяцев назад

interesting, I was thinking the same! 🙌

@james88391 6 месяцев назад

The 360 degree footage is world class. The music matches perfectly and the shots of Sca fell & Scafell Pike are absolutely unreal. Exposed rocks / crags plus snow with the light rolling over make the best views of the mountains. Some day!

@philipbeal1 6 месяцев назад

Highlight of our evening watching you 😄

@sheffycity 6 месяцев назад

Wow what a beautiful snowy walk thank you for the walk Craig looking forward to the next one 😊

@JulianSaunders 6 месяцев назад

You picked a beautiful day for your walk. The second and last time I attempted to summit Bow Fell was in September 2022. We started off from the car park in shorts and tee shirts but as soon as we got below Three Tarns the heavens opened and we were beaten back despite donning our wet weather gear. There will be another time!

@jamieb741 6 месяцев назад

Absolutely fantastic video , the light was amazing and those white peaks were... i have no words.😊

@Dagrdottir 5 месяцев назад

I love all your videos (especially the snowy ones) but this is hands down the best video you've done in my opinion. Honestly the scenery was overwhelming.

@markprice470 2 месяца назад

what a day - thats also one of my favourite fells -I did it mid summer and it was a bit warm. The conditions and views you had were just epic!

@MrCADTutor 6 месяцев назад

Wonderful and joyous! Thanks so much for sharing your adventures.

The trudge of doom looks good to me black Crag especially with two knackered knees nice and flat 🤣🤣 first operation on Thursday for a full replacement 🫣😬wish me luck.

@Hikingvibesonly 6 месяцев назад

I’ve just started my own channel after watching your videos inspired me to try do it my self love all your videos there amazing

@Tony_33 2 месяца назад

Throughly enjoyed this and what stunning scenery that you always capture so well. Nearly all my walks are in the Peak District or Snowdonia but this has given me the incentive to get up to the Lakes for my next and trips. Thank you.

@BaltistaniBoys 5 месяцев назад

Absolutely amazing. Nice sound. I recommend you visit the himalayan mountains k2 and the view point from place.Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower.

@gordonharker4705 6 месяцев назад

Awesome. Beautiful, the best hike i have seen. I love it

@juliesecker9405 6 месяцев назад

I agree this should be a tv series. The fells look absolutely stunning with the snow on them. The sheep as well, which goes with the scenery. Glen, you just have that voice which calms you down on a Sunday evening. Look so forward to your walks. Thank you. ❤

@mikewinrow364 6 месяцев назад

once again amazing views and running commentary from you Glenn quite envious I wasn't there also

@rescyn1190 6 месяцев назад

OS Maps link broken ;) EDIT: Also, no S4-Ep08 in the title so not clear it's part of the series

@redbeardsbirds3747 6 месяцев назад

Interestingly if you took any one of those so called “ hills” and put it down in the middle of my state here in Alabama…it would be the tourist attraction of the whole state ….and it would indeed be categorized as a legit mountain! I mean I could definitely think this was in the Colorado Rocky Mountains! Spectacular and beautiful MOUNTAINS! 🏔️

@ac9110 6 месяцев назад

Another visual treat. A real RU-vid weekly highlight for me now. Take care though Glen, I shouldn't think a broken ankle up there on your own would be any type of fun.

@zadokwest 6 месяцев назад

Awesome love the fell tags, they are great photos in them selves. Was up there last week but I cheated going up from Wrynose..😂

@annemariewharton2797 6 месяцев назад

It feels like heaven, you said, and it really is so beautiful. Thank you very much for taking us along 👏🙏🏻😊.

And by the way. I don't think the link to OS maps is working

@Alan-DPhotos 6 месяцев назад

I watched this whilst sitting in my van looking up at The Band and barely seeing a third of the way up with constant rain hitting the roof. On the one hand, I now hate you, but on the other thankful I could see what I was missing. Loved the video, loved the views, loved the photos but now hate you! 🤣 Take care 😁

@davetay44 2 месяца назад

I'm new here, slowly working my way through some of your videos, I don't normally comment but just thought I'd post up and say I really like your content and how you present it. This one in particular was EPIC, those snowy tops were insane. I did Helvellyn via Striding Edge in similar conditions earlier this year (possibly around the same time you filmed this) and every few seconds I was audibly saying "wow" or "I don't think I'm still in England" and every time you said "sorry for keep saying wow" it reminded me of that (and also don't apologise, it's worthy of the wow!) Anyway, thanks for the awesome vid(s)

@w4xx638 6 месяцев назад

Quality vid my friend. You did the right thing too, that was just a little on the sketchy side

@siborgjasper 6 месяцев назад

We absolutely love your videos. Any time off of work we try to get up there but when we can't, your vids transport us. Atmospheric, stunning footage and pics. Love your channel 👍😊

@paulcompton9264 6 месяцев назад

Hi Glenn from sunny newcastle. 😅 Thank you so much for that video , I have been following you for a long time now and your professional and enthusiasm is always outstanding .This one is definitely up there as one of your best . I have walked some of that area but not in those conditions. This is the first time I have left a comment on your channel, however im sure lots of your followers , like myself really appreciate your hard work , great content, outstanding pictures and the way you do it . Take care mate

@DAoutdoors 6 месяцев назад

Hi there Glenn. Absolutely wonderful video mate. I’ve done that exact same walk in the summer, although I didn’t do Rossett Pike. I did make it over the climbers traverse and up the great slab though. It’s a pity you couldn’t get up that way this time but you did the right thing. Thank you as always for sharing your amazing adventure. I hope the Finnmeister is doing ok. All the best Dave 😀🥾⛰

@archiesharpe2800 6 месяцев назад

@willbo2000 6 месяцев назад

An absolute epic day out mate, completely spectacular and positively Alpine! One of the best you've done! Will be watching this again and again.. ❄️😎👍

@davidmarshall5596 6 месяцев назад

Ya said if ya took a photograph ya could tell.folk it's Switzerland!! Enough said !!! The Lakes is simply sublime ❤ 🎉😊

@davepickard3913 6 месяцев назад

Right call regarding the climbers traverse. It didn’t detract at all from what must be one of your finest ever videos. Thank you.

@roytomkinson9350 6 месяцев назад

Glenn , WOW

@jonm4989 6 месяцев назад

Terrific video Glenn. Funny enough my wife and I were hoping to climb Crinkle Crags and Bowfell on Sunday. Unfortunately many others had a similar idea and when we arrived at the car parks around 10am they were all full. We headed back to Ambleside and walked the Fairfield Horseshoe which was great. One day I’ll get up Bowfell. Keep up the good work 👍

@SallyHutton 6 месяцев назад

Reading some of the comments below, you really could have your own TV series. Professional production, excellent content, charming character. All the ingredients are there. Someone mentioned the 360 clip, it was very moving with the music. So enjoyable 👍

@yorkshireladlassoutdoors4486 6 месяцев назад

Mine and Steves favourite mountain bowfell. That whole area is really beautiful. Bit of tough slog to get up though even without the snow 😊😊 Fab video as always.

@barbarawilliams5621 6 месяцев назад

We literally LOVED this video! It is “Flippin’ gorgeous!” As you would say….and THANK YOU for using your head to stay safe, we watch this as much for YOU as for the views….we look forward to every video to visit with you, “our friend.”You make us feel like we are there with you…so KEEP SAFE first, take your time and take your photos-we are not missing a thing! Those photos are your livelihood young man…have a blessed day! Barb and Mike in North Idaho. (USA)

@stephenthompson1998 6 месяцев назад

Well I was spellbound with the scenery and camera work, what a walk . Definitely one of your best imho.

@louisesmith3860 6 месяцев назад

Another brilliant video. Yes the long stretch back is utterly draining. I lost the will to live at one point 😂. However always a pub. Classic view's though bloody stunning 😍

@regmoore4349 6 месяцев назад

What a fantastic walk. I hope you put some of the photos as part of your merchandise. They must have been brilliant.

@bradauto 6 месяцев назад

Inspirational as always. Currently sat in Keswick planning the next walk. Thankyou for the ideas

@sharonrojas9569 6 месяцев назад

What came out on the camera? Beauty. Loveliness and views that took my breath away. A Sunday without a marvelous Black Crag video is not really a Sunday I want to experience. So, imagine my joy when I saw this beauty on RU-vid this Sunday. I've been a fan now for over a year and one day, I hope to be able to become a member of the Black Clan. Grizzley Gaz recommended your channel to me. I am so glad I clicked on it. From the very first video of yours I was hooked.

@paullanfear5762 6 месяцев назад

@ChrisPattonPhotography 6 месяцев назад

Absolutely stunning video Glenn, really enjoy your snowy adventures on the fells.

@judywarner539 6 месяцев назад

Another spectacular, amazing, knowledgeable, amusing video Glenn. There are some many superlatives for your work 😅 I’ve done the route up to Rossett Pike from Mickledon Valley. What a slog up to Angle Tarn. Then I got caught in torrential rain. Fabulous to see it all again but in snow & with you doing all the leg work 😂

@julie-annegyton604 6 месяцев назад

BEST. DAY. EVER. THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR FILMING THIS GLEN - AMAZEBALLS! PS - I was shouting at telly saying don’t take the risk….very glad your voice of reason kicked in!!

@davidburgess9058 6 месяцев назад

What a day indeed! That 360 at the top of Bowfell was wonderful. An epic piece of film in a winter wonderland of Lakeland beauty. You're blessed to have caught it on an amazing day in what looked like almost perfect conditions in true fell walking country. Thanks for sharing

@phillewis3108 6 месяцев назад

Finally completed a lifetime ambition, and over to Cumbria 3 weeks ago. I'm guessing that around when this was filmed, because a few days after we arrived, there was a run of 2-3 days of this weather. The snow covered fells (especially Skiddaw from where we are) were just magnificent. I'd planned to get out for my first proper walk today, but I've had a bit of a fever all day. At least I know they're now only a few minutes away 😊

@ragingbull9940 6 месяцев назад

@LorraineMiles-pr7bx 6 месяцев назад

Thank you Glenn. The 360° shot literally moved me to tears. Spectacular. The best vlog yet.

@jimmycburfield5997 3 месяца назад

Brilliant example! I was wowed by this video. The magnificence and splendour came across. Me personally as a 49 year old man, I ain’t going up any high fells in winter or Snow! Grateful for your wonderful efforts and your interning commentary

@wendyhassam8353 6 месяцев назад

Amazing!! Thanks again for a wonderful uplifting video 😍

@DavidMichaelBurnett 6 месяцев назад

Loved this video mate. Looks like you absolutely did have one the best days in the fells! One which will have you stay buzzing about for weeks to come I bet! Very well put together video of your venture out too. Quality as usual! (Also, nice boots 😉🧐) 👍🏻

@Wukkie. 6 месяцев назад

Superb day out by the looks of it. Enjoyed watching along. Just as a heads up the link for the route isn't working in OS Maps.

@dancleasby151 6 месяцев назад

There's more snow in the Lake District than there is in Ottawa, Canada. Granted, it's about 600m higher there, but all winter we've only had about 100cm of snow which isn't a lot and it's been gone for about 3 weeks now.

@Merritt7278 6 месяцев назад

Fantastic, stunning, professionally done, shall I go on ? Safe to say I'm a fan. The blokes wasted on here.

@thomasgibson9877 6 месяцев назад

Another fantastic video. Breathtaking views. Great commentary too, makes me want to grab me boots every time i watch these. Your doing a wonderful service for people who perhaps can no longer reach these spectacular highs. Your bringing the wilderness into lounges everywhere. Keep it up mate, utmost respect 👍

@barralass352 6 месяцев назад

Tried to watch this on my night shift, but Alas had to wait until I got up worth the wait, though. Stunning. Did you really say " snow blindness is snow joke," 😀 or did I not hear correctly ? 🤔

@dawnmason2378 6 месяцев назад

Wow! The best one so far Glenn. Stunning views and just love all that snow 😍

@BrynDavies67 6 месяцев назад

Our hills here in West Sussex are about 250m high, so those there are definitely mountains as far as I’m concerned 😅

@jonathansutterby4081 6 месяцев назад

Love the fells with their winter coat on. Seems to happen less frequently year after year so we've got to make the most of it when we can! Like the new logo by the way!!

@Rustymouse 6 месяцев назад

@31:36 when you did the 360, Whilst seeing all the names of the pikes, crags and gables with the snow on them, the stunning beauty and ruggedness of the views, (Full screen makes this like I was there) I literally had tears rolling down , it bought such emotion from deep within. I have never had that experience before . Thank you.
