You have surpassed yourself. This video was the most like actually being there with you as a mate that you ever done. And more like real life in terms of being there with you than any video or TV I have ever seen.
I have always been into long distance hiking. I used to be able to carry the kitchen sink and walk forever... well, 30 miles wasn't unknown. For the first time, last month, on The Ridgeway of all places - undulating easiness - I had to accept that I am not the girl I was. The rain had muddied and rutted the trail. I slipped, slid and trudged. I had planned for an average of 15 miles a day and the weather had put me behind. Not only that, but I was aching - *panadol with caffeine works wonders - no spon.😉 On the third day I thought "What is the point of this?". So, I rocked up at an inn; got myself a room; showered (thrice) and strew my kit across the floor to dry. Then, I gave myself three more days by switching the train journey home. I stopped two nights at a campsite to do my laundry and have a rest day. The pub was visited (twice). I am jealous of your youth. But, I am retired, so there will be many a young lad or lass who are jealous of my 'time'. I believe we all have to spend our youth and time, wisely. Skye is one of the most beautiful places on the planet. May/June is the best time to go - more chance of sunshine and fewer midgies and tourists. Next year, God willing, I might pop back. My 'kitchen sink' is lighter and I have time.
do you really like it ?? i dont understand what people see in skye at all . its so bleak up here. Id swap for the ridgeway anyday. i loved living on the ridgeway. I also envy you thinking about hiking rather than ww3 and all the tyranny we are being corralled into . How are you so cheery ?
I know the feeling, I'm 44 and went through stage 2 aggressive cancer a few years back, let's just say it's an absolute struggle just cutting my lawn...I've moved on to kayak fishing and camping as I can sit down in my kayak and it's been a life saver, without that I would be in a really bad place.
@@AMG63 I broke my back when I was 20 years of age. After two years of immobility, surgical procedures, spinal corsets and physio-terrorism, it was time to walk again. I haven't stopped since. I remember rolling my eyes when people used to say "All you need is your health", but it is SO true. Live as large as you can and keep buggering on. Wishing you the best of health.

“This is Scotland. No paths” Thank you for giving us that 💕
I've often had an inner voice telling me to jump when I'm at height, it's not a suicidal thing, it's just there. I once stuck my finger in a fan because of the same thing, it didn't bleed for long. 😂
Man I appreciate the honesty so much man it’s so damaging people thinking they’re alone with these things, we all have little mad moments, it’s what makes us human.
I must say a big thankyou haze, I was a big walker and spent 27 year in the army so I have walked a lot, but these days I find myself walking shorter distances due to my knees and back not working like the did when I was younger, but still I live my walks through you and your vids. So once again I thank you. Cheers a fellow Yorkshire man
14:40 "Absentmindedness leads to logged-offedness." 😁You're the best, Haze. Your videos have brought me many smiles over these past few difficult years. Thank you.
Came from your TikTok account. Great first video mate. Love your authenticity and craic. Looking forward to more videos and sending love to your and your mam during a difficult time ❤
This video is an excellent example of your work. I hope it goes viral for you and boosts the number of your subscribers because you deserve it. Thank-you for going all the way back to the Isle of Skye for us (after the incident). You made the right decision. Great energy. Great to see you on the top of the world. Good on you mate.
When I was a bread snapper at school, we always spent our summer hols in Scotland. All the other kids went to Spain or Ibiza and came back with a nice tan. We came back a whiter shade of pale, but at least we were "windswept and interesting", as The Big Yin put it.
I've felt that 'call of the void', myself. Scares the hell out of me sometimes 😆. On another note... I dont think you realize just how many of us are living vicariously through you because we can not do whqt you're doing, for various reasons. So... thank you SO MUCH for sharing your adventures... and my #1 bucket list location (Scotland)... with all of us ❤️.
Amazing vid Hazy, thanks so much for taking us on these adventures with you. I love the outdoors but have two little kids so I can't get out much at the moment. One day I will but until then, I live through these adventures vicariously through you. What a beautiful island. We excellent production on your vids too
Was waiting for the Golden Eagles to appear - had my best ever experience with a Golden Eagle on that ridge. Two were cycling with the Cuillin Mountains as a back drop. Then the one flew along the scarp just 30 feet away and level with me, as he passed he turned his head towards me then did a dive like a brick, then back up again. I felt he was saying "Watch this Mate !" - an unforgettable experience. Yes being in the great outdoors, especially on multi-day trips is good for us. All best Hazey
Mr Hazy Part 2, fabulous scenery. The night time-lapse breath taking...makes you think about how we are so insignificant in the big scheme. You put a good shift in. Good for the mind, body and soul....TGO.... Thanks again for the time and effort in getting these videos out there.... Excellent.
Superb job Hazey! I had sweaty palms there a few times! I have done a few ridge walks, but the London eye did me over, when it got to 12 o clock, maybe because its a man made thing, and you have no control over it.
Ah someone else who thinks about dinosaurs when roaming the mountains. I often listen to the Jurassic park album while walking and imagine what it was like when the dinosaurs were around, that extra sensory input makes a walk in the hills so much different.
Absolutely brilliant scenery on this one bro. I’m from NZ and wee have plenty of places that are primal and wild too. So get where you are comming from as they are the best. Much aroha. 🇳🇿🤪🇳🇿
One of the last true wildernesses in the UK. So pleased that this section got you pumped and made you feel alive! It’s a proper buzz. I stopped at the Old Man, so will look forward with interest to the following chapters! All the best pal 🙌🙏
Ah I took the other trail from the top of the Storr. Missed Old man of Storr but the views were great. Some absolute units to climb though. If I ever do it again (absolutely) I will do the other route. Great as always Hazy.
About the dinosaurs, go to the Staffin Dinosaur museum if you’ve not already! The owner has collected majority of items himself, lots of other ancient things too!
As always a great video Hazy, I also have those crazy brain thoughts about pushing someone or what would happen if I just threw myself off. Glad you said it so it doesn't make feel like some psychopath. Stay safe mate!
Does anyone know what those four circles in the sea were? I'm assuming fishing nets? Great video Hazey! Thank you. It's obvious you needed time "off leash", as you put it. Love it when the wind is blowing, like it was at the top, it's so raw, untamed nature. Was your face sun burned, or wind burned? Both? Awesome that you were connecting with the dinosaurs of Skye, the Isle transported you into its history, some places are good at that. I found places in Arizona that did it to me; cliff dwellings, ancient ghost towns way up in the mountains. Looking forward to the next video. Have a wonderful week.
@@HazeOutdoors Thanks for the response, those circles had me curious. And, I know people are trippin' about sunscreen, but, Melanoma is no joke. Much Love, have an awesome week.
“I’m going to get in to dinosaurs” that line had me crying 😂 love you Hazey you’re ace, what would we do without you epic content! Bravo 👏🏻 loved this video thank you ☺️
Your definitely not the only one pal that's been going on with me for years, you know you've got a problem though when you do it on your balconies on holiday x
Ok, so totally engrossed, got to map time and had to pause the video to comment. What an absolute belter of a video, the editing was top notch and you seem like a new man. Total respect dude 🤜.
🤣🤣🤣 the smell bit @ 29mins.... I've just finished a two and half day hike around the North York Moors on Saturday, "The Crosses Walk" and when I got back to civilisation in Goathland, I told my missus that the thing that stood out the most was all the people lathered in way too much fragrance and done up like they were going on a night out....felt surreal after a few days up on't moors
Really enjoyed this fella! Great views and chat! Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I'm on the skye trail in a few weeks time so massively looking forward to it now 👍🏼
Loved your cwt vids and was inspired so i done it in April 2023, also in 15 days. Was planning on doing this trial next April so this is brilliant mate! Absolutely love it!!
All them false summits, but you finally got your glory, I felt guilty eating fish and chips as I watched this, but not too guilty lol 😅. Always a cracking watch Thanks for sharing and see you on your next adventure 🤙 🤟
Awesome that one mate. That impulse thing might be your adhd looking for dopamine hit. Who knows? You’re like me mate, Ferrari brain, bicycle brakes🤣big respect. 💪
Love it mate! Love the thought trails you talk about. Honestly we all have those! I laughed out loud thinking about dinosaurs walking there. What a thought! You are truly a refreshing chap to watch. Thanks mate for keeping it real.
Didn’t know about this trail, just ordered a guidebook and will have a go at it later in the year or maybe next. Inspirational series, back to your best with this
Admire your stamina mate,bloody fully impressed with how you keep going mile after mile. Magnificent scenery and I'm thoroughly enjoying your channel. Cheers from South Australia 😊
Mate! My favourite placesnin the UK, maybe the world, are on Skye. The Quirang, the black cuilin. Stunning! Perfect trail for you this mate, suits you ❤ keep on keeping on Hazy, you make a bigger difference than you know x
It's like no where else, except maybe iceland. If you get a chance mate you have to take on the Laugevegur trail one day. The WHW is way too easy for you, you have to get to Iceland for a Hazy level challenge. Easyjet have cheap flights, then you can get a bus out from Reykjavik and back. Have a look at it, it's the only place I've been that can beat Skye ❤
Fabulous video as always hazy.looking at doing that trail next year.it will be our first long distance trail so no doubt a bit of a mission 😂keep up the great work,no 1 youtuber no doubt. Mark and linda from scotland.
Loved that Hazy - but gonna admit to being slightly disappointed in the lack of stacking it into the boggy-mc-bogmyrtle section 🤣 it's not just us you've let down, it's yourself 😂 Looking forward to the next episode, and loving seeing the trusty Lanshan out and about. Weird that out of all the gear you own the old Lanny has made the grade for the expedition
We were hiking in the Ochills near Stirling (doing our own bit o recording) about the time you did this, and we had the exact same thought... we kept passing people who smelt of... civilisation... I smelt of stream bathing and butterflies, honest!
I did that cycling with my eyes closed as a kid, hands off the handlebars...only I ran into the back of a campervan and dropped by boy junk onto the crossbar... thankfully just bruises resulted...I didn't do it again 🤣
haze when i tooK LSD once my trip said what is the difference between you and a killer , its just one thought and action ,i sleped in the shed that night and never took it again , great hike and video ,,keep up being honest it's so refreshing love yas bro ❤
