After a two month break from the hills, partly to due work but mostly due to a long period of poor mountain weather, I was desperate to get back in the mountains to film my 100th Nuttall. On this day, there was a short weather window of a few hours of clear skies before rain was due to come in from the west. It turned out to be a great adventure, picking up Elidir Fawr, our 100th Nuttall whilst also visiting Mynedd Perfedd and Carnedd y Filiast for the 2nd time in the northern Glyders. The descent route through Dinorwic slate quarry finished the day in a fascinating and enjoyable way. The rain arrived earlier than expected but not before I had visited the tops and it somehow felt appropriate for the decent route through the quarry.
About Rudolph’s Mountains
Welcome to the Rudolph’s Mountains channel, which records my journey to visit all the mountains in England and Wales over 2000ft, known as The Nuttalls. They were named after John & Anne Nuttall, who researched and created the initial list of tops, and published quite excellent books on how you could visit them all. I don’t always follow their routes, as I prefer to research the route myself, but I always use their route as a starting point.
I have been making movies of my days in the mountains for a couple of years now, initially just to share my adventures with friends and family. I can’t get out all the time, due to family and work commitments, so it’s going to take many years to get through them all, health permitting.
Each Episode is edited down from the original movie to around 30 minutes or less and then released on a Saturday at 12 noon. There won’t be a movie every week though. Each Episode has subtitles, as even I can’t understand what I’m saying half of the time!
If you are planning to venture out on the hills yourself, please make sure you research your route and that you are properly prepared. Always check the mountain weather and ground condition forecast, but don’t trust it! Mountain weather can be unpredictable, so prepare for the worst. Enjoy the mountains, but always take care so that you return home safely.
Thanks for watching.
