Cracking video, added this route to the many planned for 2025 (when it gets warmer of course)

Beautiful footage. I've never seen the whisky still in such detail. Thanks for sharing

I loved this, I've just come across your channel it's always great to see stuff about the Cheviots being my "local" hills and preferred to the busy Lakes. I spent years( like you more than 40) tramping around these hills you've reignited my interest again. Thank you and chapeau to you for covering so many miles.

Lots of deer tracks!

Really enjoyed the video Dave. Dropped on with the great weather. Can’t beat the winter skies. All the best 😊👍🏼

Morning Dave was up there with Anne a few weeks ago but your walk looked a lot better dry underneath good walk Dave 👍

Nice one Dave 👍

Good effort but right decision, no point trying to be a hero 👍

Enjoyed the video 👍🏻 I did some of that route in November last year and that pile of logs at 3:30 in your video was massive! Looks like it might’ve got a bit bigger since I saw it

Cracking video Dave it looks stunning up there with that snow that was a canny walk you did in them conditions HNY mate atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍

Cracking sunrise mate...great time to be out and about

One of the most atmospheric places in Northumberland for my money. Amazing place. Last time I camped there the wind got up so much I lost my nerve under the tress and re-pitched on open moorland. You did well to get Stephen back there! Great camp lads and thanks for sharing, ATB, G

Hi Dave I must follow your lead and try this side of the Cheviots Some good shelter in those trenches for the old Tarp Cheers from a bivy

THESE VIDEOS ARE MORE INTERESTING WHEN THERE'S A GROUP OF YOU.

Looked like a good night out dave lot's of fun and banter HNY mate atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍

That crossbar on the Xdome is upside down, no?

Hi Dave, it’s a great place to camp, Cheers from the bivy

subbed

Hello Davy Happy new year to you and the brave lads out for your latest video as always I enjoyed it

Nice one lads 👍 Happy new year to you all 🤝

Love it up in Northumberland best countryside in UK imo new sub enjoyed this one plus few older boys so my sort banter

Cool camp fellers deffo good craic howay the lads toon army 🎉

Cracking camp am not sure a big group like that but up I watch you and Bob n mark only people I watch atb 👍

Hi lads looking at your video you under estimated the forecast as one of you said you didn't believe in forecast, and only one of the tent was up for the job and on the lea side of the hill in the best position in my opinion. Good shout to crash move off the hill, better prepared next time, just saying

Wow 😲 Nice one lads 👍 Good decision..

the gentleman with the sleeping mat overhead looks a bit like Bruce Willis .. 🤣🤣🤣

❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Cracking video and definitely a wise move packing up. I’ve got a Durston and had the same issue so swapped their pegs for 4 Delta ground Anchors for the pain part then used 8 inch thick plastic pegs for the rest. Perfect in strong windy conditions.

That was a bit of fun . 40mph constant is actually quiet a strong wind . Poor ronnie .

It was a warmer climate when they lived in the hillforts

Crikey that looked bad, definitely the right call. The hills will be there another day.

Great video lads. Couldn’t agree more, it’s hard work keeping the pack weight down in winter. Some decent wind that. Good call on the bail. You’re a team up there and with that wind getting worse, would mostly likely ended with damaged kit and a miserable night. All the best 😊👍🏼

A baptism of fire for Ronnie, it’s good to see how things can change as it deffo prepares you for the next. Good job you didn’t fly that drone 😂. Nice vid, glad yous got down safe. Atb mate, Dave 👍

in my country, you are called "tua-tua keladi" semakin tua semakin beraksi 😁

Type 2 fun!

That will blow the "Winnets" of you boys.

As long as you learned from it. It's still a good story to tell back in the comfort of a good pub. Maybe a mixture of better pegs & double pegging might have helped.

At least it wasn't raining

Your friend was unprepared. Delta pegs for the windward side most likely would have had solved his issues but bulky. The minimum he should have is extra pegs and guyline to double peg the windward side which you should do whenever high winds expected, On poor ground you may want to tripple peg. Alot easier than hunting for rocks and putting them back after. The fact you could walk means the winds were not that high as in under 50mph, wind speeds always feel higher than they are. Have a soulo BL myself. I would recommend double poleing the side pole on your solo, as the side is your weak point.

A good call to pack down when the winds pushing at the wrong side and due to get worse. Always good to be at home warm and safe. Plenty more time to revisit. What was the wind speed or did you not take your anemometer. I always use mountain forecast for weather which is usually right. Never use the normal weather apps as it’s based on town at sea level and not elevation. Looked a good memory made Dave!

Absolutely insane. From what I can tell, that landscape is equal parts beautiful and terrifying. Add that weather, and it’s completely terrifying.
