Thank you Patrick for the mention, it really made our day meeting you like that, its not often you bump into someone that you've been following on you tube for sometime. Thanks again for the videos, it got us through those many days we were stuck in the house due to covid. Keep the videos coming and you take care of yourself, and for all those people who wonder what Patrick is like, he's just the same jovial smilling person you see on his videos, what you see is what you get a Gentleman . Thanks Mate, all the best.

[@solitaryrambler]

You are very welcome Terry. I enjoyed meeting the pair of you in Hope when I did. Thanks for all your kind comments too, I do try to "be me" as much as possible in my films. Hope to catch you again sometime. Have a great weekend 👍

[@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling]

I hiked this on Tuesday. I'm glad you said it was the Mother of all climbs Patrick because it certainly was. I came up from Ladybower and seemed to take a steep rocky path up. On the way back I went along the Briddle Path which was much easier. Thanks for sharing. All it needs is a discarded cigarette and up it goes. From Ladybower it just seemed false summit after false summit.

[@solitaryrambler]

I think it's an even harder climb from Ladybower, although I must admit I've never walked Win Hill from there. Thanks for watching 👍

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

A Peak District classic there Patrick. As annoying as it must have been, losing the SD card gave you another reason to walk that great hill again. It’s one of my favourites and definitely one for the midweek that’s for sure. I completely understand your annoyance at finding that litter. It’s fantastic that the countryside is accessible for all, it’s just unfortunate that there are a few people who have no clue about the countryside code! Great to see you back out and making films again. I always look forward to seeing them pop up on my notifications

[@solitaryrambler]

Hi Anthony, yeah a real classic one this. it was good to go back to film this again as it is a fab walk as you know, especially as it was with fewer people the second time around. I just get riled when I see so much litter, those sweet wrappers were everywhere. It was nice to be out again filming, so thanks Anthony for watching and commenting. See you out there! Have a great Sunday 👍

[@kathrynbrock1558]

Nice to see you back Patrick. Yes I agree Hope and around is a lovely walk

Thanks for that Kathryn. The area around Hope is lovely indeed, more to come 👍

I did the walk up Win Hill a couple of years ago, climbing up Parkin Clough; a real thigh burner! The views, I'm sure you'll agree, are stunning!

[@solitaryrambler]

Nice one, it's a great walk up to Win Hill👍

[@ritapowell4695]

Lovely to see you back again Patrick. I really enjoyed the walk it’s lovely to see parts of the Peak District that I’ve never yet visited.

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Rita, appreciate your comments and for watching 👍

[@ramblingracheltrailtales]

Hi Patrick, I'd like to walk up Win Hill at some point; it's so beautiful. Nothing wrong with a rant one and a while; let's keep hammering home the Leave No Trace message. There's no need for people to leave their rubbish on the trail. Great video, a very enjoyable watch. Thank you xxx

[@solitaryrambler]

Morning Rachel, yes Win Hill is certainly worth visiting when you can. I needed that rant, and felt better for it! 😀 Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it. Have a great weekend! 👍 xx

Great to have back Patrick. As for SD card, now that you have redone the walk you will probably find the lost one.😟 Soldier on.

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Chris. Yeah it was good to re-film this after having lost the SD card, but I won't find the other one now, which is fine as I had spares anyway 👍

Great to know, many thanks! 👍

[@kellyshaw7271]

What a nuisance losing the sd card after all your hard work. I would have been spitting feathers. Lovely to see you out and about again, I've missed your rambles. As for litterers, they tick me off. Dirty buggers probably do the same at home, no scruples some people. Great walk with excellent scenery too. Hope your news is good and not bad. Be nice if you had met someone special so you can be a not so solitary rambler in future. Cheers Patrick for all your dedication and hard work 😁

[@solitaryrambler]

My language at the time would have been censored! 🤣🤣🤣 Never mind, at least I could go out and do it again. Yeah the litter is annoying, but I know there's no really anything I can do to stop these people. I will tell my news in the near future, which is good news for me anyway. Glad you enjoyed the walk Kelly, many thanks for watching 👍

[@TeaInValhalla]

Like button tickled for all the sandwich lovers out there, power up before that climb! 🥪 ⛰️👍☕️ loving the edit and music Patrick, TV quality production 👌

[@solitaryrambler]

A nice bit a fuel before the climb! 😀 Glad you liked the editing and music, many thanks! 😀👍

Great too see you still producing quality vids , been a while since i caught up with your vids. Being not too well myself, so now its a pleasure too catch up with you again .

Many thanks for watching as always, appreciate the comments. All the best 👍

[@TeaInValhalla]

Ooooh no! The mastery of the missing SD card, so sorry 😞 I'm always very nervous of transferring footage, for one reason or another....now I'll add jumping/vanishing SD cards to my check list, glad you were able to get back up and film this walk again 🖖⛰️🗺🧭

[@solitaryrambler]

Yeah I couldn't believe it happened! Gutted at the time. Oh well at least it was a local walk I could re-film! 😀👍

[@claireEt9055]

What a great film, thank you Patrick. I’ve done Win Hill and you’re absolutely spot on with saying “it’s a mother of a climb” 🤣 but definitely worth it. Glad to see you back filming👍🏻

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it Claire, many thanks for watching. A mother of a climb indeed, but yes worth the effort 👍

[@shaunmckenna1923]

Hello Patrick , Great to see you lovely walk as alway very entertaining , that was quite the climb , I must say you are looking pretty fit :) good for you picking up the sweet wrappers I am with you I just don't understand why people do this , its the same here they just through it down and walk away. Well we are looking forward to the next walk as you are keeping us in suspense hahahaha . Take care Patrick good to see you.

[@solitaryrambler]

Morning Shaun, thanks for your comments and for watching. A mother of a climb indeed it was, but once that's out of the way the views and the rest of the walk are so much worth it. Yeah I do hate to see the litter, but there you go. You might be in suspense for a little while yet, but I will say don't get too excited as it's not that interesting really 😊 Anyway thanks again Shaun, all the best 👍

[@steveball1959]

Well you got my cryptic answer to your last post, it's a nice cardio workout uphill from the cottages, we walked it on Tuesday 12th July and it was the cottage photo that we immediately recognized.

[@solitaryrambler]

Yep you clearly knew what was coming Steve. Thanks for watching 👍

[@steveball1959]

@@solitaryrambler Win Hill reminds me of Table Mountain in Crickhowell in the Brecon Beacons, I'm guessing you might have done that when you lived down south. The wife says you're keeping us in suspense for your next film, hope it's good news.

[@Royalawg]

Lovely film, Patrick. Glad to see you back ! 🥰 Great to see you can smile over a little misfortune - a great example for all of us.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks so much Angus! 😊

[@lancsway]

That brings back memories, I used to camp and walk that area with friends in my youth. Lovely piece of music with piano and flute. Have you noticed that when you drop small items they know exactly where to hide, then at night they come out of hiding and head back to the shop to be resold.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks Steve, you'll know this area well then. Thanks for your compliments on the music. I think that small item that's hiding won't be found now, not by me anyway. Have a great weekend 👍

[@russ3994]

Hi Patrick great to see you again fantastic video bit of a climb to the summit on win hill ! remember you telling me & Wendy in Bakewell back in May about your SD card ! also we agree with you litter bugs should be named and shamed !! Patrick just to let you know Me and Wendy got married in Scotland in July !! Good to see you again .

[@solitaryrambler]

Hey Russ and Wendy, congratulations on your marriage! Great news 🙂 Yeah the SD card story is funny looking back on it now. I would name and shame those litter bugs if I caught them. All the best and thanks for watching 👍

[@geozvision_hiking4views]

absolutely agree sir . Show some respect and leave no trace .

[@walkandcamp]

Brilliant Patrick. Shame you lost the original footage... Good excuse to do it twice though! I just missed you... I think I literally did that exact walk a few days before you. Cheers

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks again. Yeah losing the SD card was just one of those things, but yes it was nice to film the walk a second time. See you out there another time then! 👍

[@heydenharrison143]

I enjoyed the video and music as always Patrick. Regarding litter in the countryside I am with you 100%. It happens everywhere doesn't it? We live very close to a school and every morning we get crisp bags and sandwich wrappers and plastic drinks cartons dropped in the street.Obviously some childrens' "breakfast." In the countryside the effects and hazards are worse. Thanks for an excellent walk.

[@solitaryrambler]

Cheers Heyden, glad you enjoyed watching this. Yeah litter is shameful, I just hate seeing it, but I know I'm shouting at thin air when I rant. It still make me feel better doing it though! 😂 Many thanks for taking the time to watch 👍

[@mikecrowther8131]

Wonderful. Another fantastic, well produced video, Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

Cheers Mike, thanks for watching 👍

[@DesGreene]

Hi Patrick. Such a great route, but as you say, quite a lung burster on the way up! 😁 Presumably the emergency services were still damping down after that bad wildfire earlier (think it may have been 19th or 20th July when it was reported). Another case of idiots with barbecues allegedly! ☹ All the best👍

[@solitaryrambler]

Evening Des, yes I love this route very much, but definitely makes you pant by the time you reach the top! So worth it though and I was buzzing to when I was up there. There were several vehicles passed me as I walked away from that smoke beside that long hose, and more fire vehicles down near Hope, so it was certainly a big task in hand. Shame about the idiots really isn't it. Thanks for watching 👍

[@SetForAdventures]

Great watch Patrick and apologies for taking so long to do so 🙏🏼 But a fabulous film had a nice atmospheric feel the weather on the hills ! You never know the loss of the sd card might of made a difference in the long run (not great at the time though ) I agree with your rant m8t why oh why do people leave trash and rubbish in the countryside or anywhere to be honest? (Take it home!) well said! 👍 Hope this finds you well Best wishes Simon👍😊🏔

[@solitaryrambler]

Hey Simon, no worries about that. My films are available for people to watch if and whenever they like 😊 Well at least films can be reshot as I still had other SD cards. Never like to see so much litter on the moors, it's such a shame, but there you go. Thanks for watching Simon, hope you've had a great Bank Holiday weekend 😊👍

[@trailrunningphil]

Great work Patrick! Seeing your work again has really inspired me to keep creating my own style of videos as you have done so well for so long :)

[@solitaryrambler]

Cheers Phil, glad it's been some inspiration for you. I did watch a video on your channel yesterday to which you provided a link, it was great! 👍

[@peterh8970]

Completely with you on the litter problem Patrick. Absolutely infuriating. Plastic drinks bottles are the worst. What a lovely place Win Hill is. As you mentioned it's a tough climb. Have you tried the Parkin Clough path up to Win Hill from Ladybower? That really is a tough one. Many thanks for another great video.

[@solitaryrambler]

Yeah the litter is frustrating, but the walk was lovely. No I've never walked Parkin Clough, I only ever done this route in this film when I've climbed Win Hill before. Glad you enjoyed watching this Peter, many thanks for taking the time to watch 👍

[@pixelfascination]

Another fabulous one Patrick. I'm totally with you on the 'leave no trace' rant. I am sure one day the SD card will re-emerge out of nowhere, I did a similar thing and pinged the SD card out my camera but was unlucky enough for it to bounce off my face, then off my PC screen, to then see it sinking in my pint of beer, gutted wasn't even close. lol

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks my friend! 😀 I needed to rant about that after seeing all those sweet wrappers. The SD card may be turn up, but it won't be me that find its now (I'll explain about that in a future video). No worries anyway as I still had other spare cards in order to re-film this. Gutting when it happens though isn't it. Thanks for watching 👍

[@CountrysideWalking]

Hi Patrick. You Looked very well since having your break. My goodness that was some rant you gave about litter dropping! Must be nice though for you to get out into the open air again with those views from top. I can understand how an SD card can fly out of a camera. I think they are on some kind of spring, but if micro well that's another story!!. I bet it's somewhere least expected. Impressive treble triple notes piano playing in music.

[@solitaryrambler]

Morning Shanita, thanks for watching and for your kind words. Sorry about that rant, but I just get so upset and angry when I see such a lack of respect from people when they litter our beautiful countryside. That's exactly what happened with the micro SD card. I just pressed it in a way that caused it to spring out of the camera. I won't ever find it now, but I've always kept several micro SD cards. This is the first time I've ever lost one after filming, but at least I could do this again as I had a spare card. Thanks for your kind words on my piano music too, that took quite a bit of practise I must admit! Have a good week Shanita, all the best 👍

[@WyeExplorer]

Hope? My grandparents lived in 'hope under dinmore' Patrick. I always love to hear that place name. And yeah I've always known it means valley. Lovely place. Ha, a mother of a climb eh? A bit of lung busting but it makes us appreciate the good old fresh air. Plenty of it up there and hey rubbish to. What a pet hate it is for many of us. Squeeze the precious oxygen out of their lungs I say until they see the value of the clean country paths and air we breath. Yeah I know a bit extreme but get it almost denies life. Well, funny story about the SD card - I was going to say better film maybe. I mean fewer people. Very entertaining this one Patrick. I look forward to seeing what's been up. All the best. Mark

[@solitaryrambler]

Hey Mark, yes I've heard of Hope under Dinmore, probably when I've been looking at my OS maps covering Hereford. Yeah a mother of a climb haha! But yeah the lung busting felt good, would do it again at the drop of a hat. I do get annoyed with those who just leave their litter like I saw here, would name and shame them if I caught them doing it. Oh well, great bit of fresh air too anyway as you say 🙂 I can laugh at the story of my SD card now, was swearing a lot on the day it happened though! 🤣 It was nice to re-film this however, especially as there were fewer people indeed. Hope your weekend is going well for you Mark, thanks for watching and take care down there. All the best 👍

[@WyeExplorer]

@@solitaryrambler Yeah, Hope a lovely place to grow up it was Patrick - lots of wood. Good to hear you enjoyed the lung buster - gotta be done. As for the litter people it makes our hearts sink. Ha ha, you never told us about the swearing but I can imagine. Funny! Glad it was nice a second time around. My weekend? Swimming again. Have a great week ahead Patrick. peace.

[@solitaryrambler]

Haha I would never swear on m videos like I do in private! 😂 Enjoy your swim Mark, hope it's a wild one again in the lovely Wye 👍

Looks like you had a lovely quiet walk to yourself Patrick. We've yet to do Win Hill, the views look incredible from that viewpoint. You've shown us several areas in and around Win Hill we had never seen before. Great stuff :) Favourite quote: "Having fillied my face, I began the long climb" XD

[@solitaryrambler]

It was great to have the walk to myself for the most part. You should definitely get to Win Hill when you can as I know you'd make a fab video of it 😀 Haha I did indeed fill my face, I just say it as it is! 😂 Thanks for watching guys, much appreciated 👍

Great to see another lovely walk Patrick, I know what you mean about litter bugs I pick up a lot on my dog walk in the mornings people leave their beer cans :( they need shooting. Look forward to hearing your news on your next walk hope its good news. All the best Jean :)

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Jean, pleased you liked it. Yes it really gets me when I see litter in these beautiful places, but there you go. I will explain my news in a near future video. It's nothing particularly exciting to be honest, but it is positive news from my point of view anyway 👍

[@nickcooper1260]

i agree with you about the litter, I always take a bag with me on my walks, and I can't remember not picking up litter. Plastic will remain for ever, it breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, poisoning the ecosystem. Drinks cans are also a common item for people to throw on the ground once consumed.

[@solitaryrambler]

It's such a shame that people are unable to take their litter with them and just leave it scattered across our beautiful countryside. I will never understand it I'm afraid 👍

I'll never find it now, but it doesn't matter now as I had other SD cards to use and to re-film this 👍

Another brilliant film..I agree mate it pisses me off too seeing litter ..just no need for it but some brainless people just don't care unfortunately so your rant needed to be said ..take care mate and look after them SD cards 🙂

epic pat, at least ya got this uploaded before ya lost it 😂 talking of rubbish i saw something in the woods on the other side of lady clough river last year that would have even shocked you, the amount of crap left was just to much to pick up, camp fire as well, i reported it so hopefully was cleaned up.

[@solitaryrambler]

@Solitary Rambler Good afternoon Patrick, and thank you so much for the shout out 😀, I will never forget that style because there was a class of college students watching as I struggled to get over it with my short legs 🤣 We're not long back from our first climb since getting a covid positive just over 4 weeks ago. We were pleasantly surprised at how great I've climbed. It was like I'd never had a break 😁. We have camped in Hope three times since that day that we met you! It was an honour to meet you, it really was. You are exactly like you are on your videos. Thanks again. 🥰

[@maggi666]

I forgot to say what a brilliant video this was! 👏

[@solitaryrambler]

Pleasure to give you and Terry a shout out Maggi, I thought of you straight away when I was filming this 😀 It was an honour to meet you both too. I do like just "be me" in my films as much as possible, so the man you see in this is exactly who people will see if they see me in the flesh 😂 Glad you're over the Covid now, I think we've all had it now at some point. Have a great weekend 👍

[@notreallyi]

Nice to have you back! For years already I just can't make up my mind, whether to like all those huge bare hillsides and moors or not... For one, they make for some really spectacular and scenic views, but, the again, what they essentially are is man made ecological catastrophe.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks my friend! I just love the bleakness of the moors, just so spectacular and yes those views are to die for. Thanks for watching 👍

Can’t stand people that leave litter, worst still is when they go to the trouble of picking up their dogs mess then proceed to throw the bag in the bushes, trees, where doesn’t really matter. Anyway, great video, pity I won’t be going up there, I have in the past, many years ago but my legs won’t make it these days unfortunately

Yeah people are amazing aren't they when it comes to litter and dog poo. Thanks for watching anyway, pleased you enjoyed the walk, even if you're only able to view it on the screen. All the best 👍

We saw a doggy bag on the Roaches today. It wasn't the kind of squashed bag of ****** that could be picked up by anyone other than the dirty so and so who dropped it there. Some wild campers change beauty spots around to suit them, then leave it like that and even leave there doings and toilet paper behind them, plus orange peel and wrappers. Totally disgusting!

Litter in the countryside pisses me off as well, when i walk on Ilkley Moor i take a bag with me and pick up other peoples shite.

I agree, it's a pity it gets left to others to spend their time picking up. Oh well 👍
