A Stunning Hike Up Lingmoor Fell From Elterwater

In Memory of Lynne Taylor
A superb walk to Lingmoor Fell, starting at the National Trust car park in Elterwater. Only the fourth new Wainwright I have completed this year but what a stunning hike it turned out to be, amazing views and glorious weather. Despite an initial wrong turning, I was soon back on the correct path, heading up through the woods and passing the quarry, on the way to the summit. After an extended break and lunch on the summit, I mention the passing of a lovely lady, Lynne Taylor, who was a real supporter of my channel but had sadly lost a battle with breast cancer the previous day, heart-breaking news but I was determined to dedicate this video to her and make it a real celebration of her life.

This is one of our favourite fells in the lakes! A little gem 💎. We have hiked up several times over the years while staying in the beautiful langdale area. Even went up in the snow one year, which was amazing! You got a pretty perfect day for your summit mind, blue skies, a rare sight this summer, even if it was only 12 degrees 🌞. Gorgeous views and great drone shots!👌. What a beautiful tribute to Lynne, a special lady, and a nice way to remember your friend, every time you go up Lingmoor 🙏. You are so right, health is the most precious thing in the world, we never take being able to visit places like this under our own steam, for granted. Really enjoyed seeing this familiar fell from your perspective Alan👍 All the best Shell and Pete 😊👊👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and I appreciate your kind words, a special fell indeed. Real pleased to get back in the Lakes again, especially on a brand new fell for me. It was a sad day but I wanted to mark it by making a happy video, one that I know Lynne would have enjoyed, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

Blue skies and bird song, no better start to the day. Challenging option, oh no, that’s enough to psych anyone out. Cutting your neighbours lawn, we need neighbours like that! Very tiny signs, easy to miss. That’s an unusual gate. 12C is a nice temperature for hiking where any ascents are nvolves. So many false summits! Cracking views from the top. Sorry to hear about Lynne, sounds like she will be remembered. Yay, lovely Sanniz, great question, we got last on our last hike, added three hours to our hike. Think it was chatting to the camera that made us go wrong! Nice pace on a lovely day like that! 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

So nice to be back hiking in the lakes and so nice to be back onto a new summit again. Even better it was dry and warm, especially as I wanted to say something about Lynne, who was a lovely lady and a great supporter as well, such a miss to her friends and family. Wow three hours getting lost, I would be raging but laughing about it later.....a long time later! Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMANI thought it was just 2 hours and super motivated to finish our final hike but I later found out my Casio watch had changed time zones and it was 3 hours we had lost. Oh my days we were exhausted! Probably up there with our worst getting lost in the last twenty years. Still learning, still able to make mistakes, crazy really. But I do partly blame youtube for this one, the views were so lovely when we were clearly lost I just kept cracking on…

[@AlanMETALMAN]

@@GENerationXplorers - wow, that must have been a mare, especially in the heat too. We have booked a holiday in Corfu next May and I remember doing a couple of hikes there the last time we're were there but that was 20 years ago. I may have to limit next year's hiking to just local ones 🤔

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMANyeah it really did take it out of us. By the time we got back to the Airbnb on our final night we were exhausted!

[@theYogachannel0035]

lovely hike Alan - like 109 with a full view as always - wishing you a great weekend

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks, you too Mark and appreciate you watching buddy. Tomorrows video I will be celebrating World Naked Hiking Day :o)

[@PinetreeLine]

Lovely tribute to Lynne and celebrating her and her life was amazing. You’re right Alan you can’t buy good health, you have to use it and you certainly do taking us to such incredible stunning places. Thanks Brother! 🤘🏼

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Agree 100% so blessed to have good health, money means nothing in comparison. Real sad about Lynne, such a nice person, so supportive and she will be a massive miss for her family and friends. Thanks for stopping by and your kind words, cheers Alan

[@OSMOneStepMore]

Hello Alan. Wow, what a difference from your 15°C and our 38°C, but it's definitely easier to hike on 15°C. I see that finally there was no wind and the drone took off successfully. I'd rather not tell you how many problems we had with the Mini due to the strong wind. I love Lynee's dedication because we all love life. Yes, we are kind of confident when we hike, but I hope I'll never need help from the Mountain Rescue Service. Take care Alan and have a nice weekend. Cheers! Sretana and Zac. ✌😁😎👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much for watching and the kind words, it was so sad about Lynne and I only found out the day before the hike but wanted to make a happy video for her, which she would have enjoyed. I am still nervous when I send the drone up, especially when I lose sight of it - yikes! Cheers Alan

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

What an epic place to hike! The views there are outstanding. I said a silent prayer for Lynn’s family. Hiking/camping in the Lake District, is on my bucket list. When I get done with this next cycle of chemo, I might just have to make that a reality.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, thank you and it was so sad hearing the news the day before I did the hike. Fingers crossed for you that you make it over to the UK and if you do let me know it will be great to meet up. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Packsalot]

That was a nice walk-a-bout. The trail and views were awesome. Everything is super green there now. Beautiful! Those stone walls are impressive. They go on for awhile. Lots of work went into them. Nice memory and tribute. Awesome drone footage. Well done on your climb and video. Take care and have a wonderful day.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and a real nice walk, on a fell I have never done before. Real pleased to was a clear summit with great views as I did want to say a few words for Lynne. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@EventyrsorenDenmark]

All the colores are amazing. So nice green everywhere 😊 such a wonderful hike for sure. Great watch.Thanks 😊😊

[@vedrana0127]

Beautiful day and beautiful hike with breathtaking views. It's nice that you dedicated the video to your friend and supporter 🥰❤️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you very much! I was so sad when I heard she had passed away the previous day but determined that I would make a happy video for her. It was real nice to get back out hiking again and on a new Fell too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@thegeordiefellwalker8878]

no rain 🤣 lingmoor was my 1st lake District fell. RIP Lynn 💚 very sad.makes us appreciate what we got 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

To true marra, puts it all into perspective for me. I may moan and grown about things like the weather but at least I am still here to feel it and see it. Nice first Fell to do, I thought the views were amazing up there. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ladyintheskyuk]

Brilliant day out walking Alan. Thank you for taking me along. Loved everything and every minute of this video 😊👌👍❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and great to be on a new Fell and get a nice day. Shame it was also a sad day but I was determined to make it a happy video. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Sanniz]

Sorry for your loss, but it was a great tribute of Lynne. And I am pretty sure she would loved it. And as usual great views. We got also max 13° for moment, but they say it should be warmer this week comming. Typically when I need to work. Awww, I have been really lost too. Worsest when we were out riding on ours Icelandic horses. Showed up we were in totally opposite direction than I thought we was. And it took us 2 hours back on horses! 😂😂😂 Stay safe and have a wonderful week. Cheers 🦇🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Aww that's a dam shame the weather is improving just when you have to go back to work but I hope you feel refreshed from your holidays. Ohhh never knew you could ride a horse, never been on one myself, they look too big and scary to me! Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@wanderingoutyonder]

Nice dedication Alan - thoughts with Lynn's family - loved the CELEBRATION - you are correct. Loved the trek through the beautiful terrain - I loved all of the bird sounds along the way - nice accent to the water! Those ferns were FANTASTIC - we love those areas - so green and welcoming! We are always amazed at the GREEN that is in your videos - it is soooo much green - and so beautiful!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and after the wettest start to the year on record, I am surprised I am not green too lol. Real nice to get some sun al last and nice to get a dry day, so I can say a few words about a wonderful lady on the top of the summit. Real good of you to stop by and I appreciate your kind words, cheers Alan

[@FloridaFlipFlops]

Hello from Naples, Florida. Very nice! So peaceful there. We enjoyed your hike. A wonderful tribute to Lynne, indeed. Thanks for sharing with us, have a great weekend 👍 💯 ❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and your very kind words. It turned out to be such a joyful days hiking. Cheers Alan

[@davidburgess9058]

Hi Alan. Firstly That was a lovely dedication to your friend Lynne and a reminder to us all to embrace the moment. I love Lingmoor and Side Pike, they hold some stunning views. My grandchildren are coming up next month so I think it would be an ideal hike for them. You caught some amazing colours. Love your dedication and drone footage at 15.01. The Langdale Pikes look amazing. As always thanks for sharing

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it David and hopefully you get the same weather as I did next month when your grandkids come up. It was so sad about Lynne, such a lovely lady and so sad we never did that hike together. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@waterfallmadman]

Lovely day for a hike. Beautiful spot.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes it was! Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@The_Brit_Girls]

Hi Alan, a beautiful hike. The countryside is gorgeous. I loved how bright the greenery looked. Wow, what fabulous views from the top. Again, the colours were amazing. A lovely tribute to Lynne. It was so sad to hear about her passing. Thank you for a very enjoyable video. Hope you and Mrs M have a great week with lots of sunshine ❤❤☀

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and your kind words. I only heard the day before the hike about Lynne and was so sad but really determined to make it a happy video and a celebration of her life, she will be a big miss, cheers Alan

[@stubloggs6358]

Not done this one Alan......so it was of great interest for me. Very picturesque from 'the get go'......15 wainwrights in a week 😮, well done mate......................lovely scenery very early into the walk and birdsong, poncho's are very useful, you dont have to faff around with zips or the rucksack cover.......................loved that dry-stonewall meandering into the distance. Superb views for the height Alan...........A very emotional summit for you no doubt(it showed), so very sorry to hear about your friend and well done to you for a beautiful tribute speech........................great drone footage Alan(I could'nt trust myself with one, it'd bugger off ha ha)...................tell you what Alan with all the heather at the summit this would be even more spectacular in August/September with the purples....................''bum-shuffle'' often required at our age mate. Always worth popping a couple of quid in the mountain rescue box..............A thoroughly enjoyable hike Alan.............ATB.......Stu/Wendy......👍👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and I have only done 4 brand new Wainwrights in the whole of this year due to the awful weather lol. I was a sad summit but I wanted to say a few words but also make it a happy video, as I know Lynne would have wanted that. Every time that drone goes up my heart is in my mouth, always relived as hell when it comes back lol! Cheers Alan

[@FloridaFlipFlops]

Like 38 👍 💯 ❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you 😊

[@DaveRobb]

What a awesome way to remember Lynn with a beautiful hike loved the views hopeful the helicopter was just practicing. awesome hike love the river too

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I was so pleased the weather held out and it was a nice clear summit, allowing me to say something about Lynne, such a lovely lady and gone far too soon. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@carriehikes]

Hi Alan, lovely walk. Beautiful scenery. You're right, we should embrace the moment and enjoy life to the fullest while your health is good. 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, so true, good health is a blessing and something I give thanks for every day, never take it for granted. So nice to get back onto a brand new Wainwright, especially when the views were great and for a change this year, the weather was good too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DAoutdoors]

Hi Alan, lovey video, and brilliant for you to dedicate it to Lynne! ❤️ Lingmoor is a cracking fella, and Lingmoor Tarn is a mega spot to have a quiet brew and a snack. Thanks for sharing your day out in the fells with us as always. Take care Dave 😀⛰🥾

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Good of you to watch and I was so happy to be back out on a new fell again, need a few more of these under my belt. Cheers Alan

[@Herfortz]

0:50 I am ready ...... 2:36 Nice scenery .... 7:00 The birds sound happy .... 12:35 I can see ...... 13:00 R.I.P. Lynne ..... 15:45 That's a lot of clouds.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

The clouds really rolled in but thankfully any rain they kept to themselves lol. Real pleased to was clear on the summit as I wanted to say something about Lynne, she must have made it happen! Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@KatInTheNorth]

Hi Alan, I’m sorry for the loss of your friend. A very nice tribute, and such a beautiful place. Your videos are always so nice, it’s almost like I can reach through the screen and touch a tree 🙂 Everything is so vibrant! I’m so glad you’re feeling better than you were, and getting back to normal. 12 degrees 🥶 Did I hear that right? A very beautiful place for a hike. Love it. Thank you for taking us along. God bless 🕊️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and your kind words. Yes it was only 12C when I got out of the car, dam chilly for the time of the year but starting to heat up now at last. Cheers Alan

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Awesome hike and a great tribute to Lynn. Thanks for sharing with us , Alan. Have a great weekend.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Appreciate you stopping by John and yes, I realty wanted to say something about Lynne at the top, a real nice lady gone far too young, cheers Alan

[@Wanna.Wander]

Stunning indeed! Pretty views are so addicting. I just always wonder what's around the next corner. Wild camp sounds amazing. My brother takes folks out on their horses to the outback mountains here in Montana💜 remember the path flattens out just after this next curve 🤩🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Your brother sounds like he has an awesome job, even though I am am bit weary of horses (as well as cows lol), too dam big and unpredictable for me. First time I have been on this Fell and it was great, a sad day but one I was determined to make a happy day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@WanderingwithWatto]

Huge thumbs up from me mate. A wrong turn can sometimes lead to a view you might not otherwise get. Stunning views from the eventual summit. And a fabulous touching dedication too. 🙏🏻. I would be deffo bum shuffling too. Not exactly nimble. Another enjoyable watch Alan. Great stuff. All the best from us both. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶‍♀️. Watto & Kim.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Appreciate you watching and this was such a nice hike, really enjoyed it and so pleased it was dry and clear on the summit, as I did want to say something for Lynne. Take care, cheers Alan

[@carrollleopard1961]

Beautiful day for a hike. Great views. Noticed that you warmed up nicely during this hike. Thanks for sharing the video. Sorry for the loss of your friend.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much for stopping by and I appreciate your kind words regarding Lynne, so sad. It was chilly when I set off but it got warmer throughout the day, which I was not complaining about, especially after all the rain we have had this year lol. Cheers Alan

[@niclrig]

Sensational Alan. Glad to hear you are getting better. Nice to see you back out hiking. Lingmoor is top of my list for Aug as I love heather and I know and can see from your video that there is a lot of it on Lingmoor. I'm patiently waiting for it to flower. Thank you for sharing. Look forward to your next one 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Absolutely, it will look amazing up there then and the background scenery is not bad either, I was real chuffed at how good it was, especially as this is a fell that I have wanted to do for ages. Fingers crossed you get the same good weather I got when you do it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ashleyjarnold]

Very nice tribute Alan, and celebration of a great life. We loved this fell too and you were right, we did get lost at the start too. To be fair, the OS Map doesn't show very clear routes for this fell so we have plenty of excuses. We went off route a lot more than you!! I really liked the bit past the quarry and up to the gate plus the views at the top - looking over to the Langdale Pikes is spectacular. I think you'll get your fitness back, no problem, and Andrea would definitely share Linda's concerns about lone hiking. Hopefully, you'll be back out again very soon, and you get some more cracking weather. Andrea and I have been hit by colds this week which is annoying but we'll get over that. All the best, Ashley

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Sorry to hear about the colds and awful when you get a summer cold. Out again tomorrow and hopefully another nice days hiking. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@wendingourway]

Lovely, "In memory of..." Always sad to hear. You did in a week, what I am lucky to do in a whole season! lol Such is the new reality. Must have been getting warming as the day progressed. Just such beautiful views!! Marvelous how all is keeping so nice and green. Hopefully with a little rain over the next couple of days will see us greening back up again as well. Have yourself an awesome upcoming week.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

The day did get warmer and warmer and it was so nice to was dry and nice and clear on the top so I could say something about Lynne, something I really wanted to do. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@OutandaboutwithAndy]

I'm catching up on this video, where has the week gone! Looked like a good walk, but I could feel my knees complaining with the bit around the 16-minute mark. A nice tribute to Lynne.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and I really wanted to say something about Lynne at the top, nothing planned it just all fell out, a sad time for her family but I was it was a nice day for she to look down on, cheers Alan

[@JamieHarding5]

Hello Alan. You had perfect weather and views. Enjoyed that. It's nice to see many people watching and commenting on your videos. You walk and talk well😁

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and it was so nice to get a good day and a dry day too. Also great to be on a fell top I had never been on before, which did not disappoint - amazing views. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DCOutdoors]

Alan, nice to see you out and building up the stamina again. Just looks wonderful. Love hearing all the birds. Is that a gate of the week, haha 😂. I'm so sorry to hear about Lynne. Super sad indeed to lose a friend. Sending prayers to her family and friends. I sure hope the Helicopter wasn't for anyone needing air support. Good tips and reminders about being safe. Thanks for taking us along with you. Hope you had a nice weekend my friend.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Funny enough I have been out today and nearly done a 'gate of the week' just for fun lol. I kept my fingers crossed the mountain rescue were practising but I saw it land in the old quarry and a lot of people do rock climbing there. Really sad about Lynne but pleased I could make a happy video in her memory. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@christinem3375]

Super to see you back out in The Lakes again,especially on a brand new Wainwright and even more so with blue skies ! Elterwater is a beautiful little village with the added advantage of both a Nat Trust car park, & the Britannia Inn!! What more could yu want haha. Haha I'm pleased I'm not the only one who gets lost, especially in woods with so many distractions and criss crossing footpaths though I hadn't the excuse of filming at the same time 🤣 Those views are superb and an excellent idea to take your time making the most of the day. So sorry to hear about your friend, she sounds a lovely lady and an inspiration,Nothing more important than your health. What a nice idea to dedicate this video to her. I hadn't realised until recently that that wall is known as The Great Wall of Lingmoor and I can see why. Hope to see you back in the fells again soon but remember to take care ... those Mountain Rescue guys are amazing.. Hope everyone was ok 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

The Great Wall of Lingmoor - I love that and what a job they must have had building it, yet along getting all the slate and stone up there too. It was great to be back on a new fell albeit sad when I heard about Lynne the previous day but I was determined to make it a happy video and one I knew she would enjoy. Thank goodness for the mountain rescue but I hope I never, ever have to call them out. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@LadyStrzygaDiscoversThePast]

Thank you for show an incredible place . I wish you a nice time 🦇 🎥❤👍🏻

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheers Alan

[@jonathancraigguides]

Another excellent video Alan. One of my favourite fells, although after a minute or two I did wonder which way you were going. If you had missed the second turn off you needn't have worried, as there is a third one leading to the green gate. Now, that seat on the way up is one I no longer use. One warm June day many years ago I sat down there for a drink and to take in the view, and was immediately startled by a hissing sound. About three feet from me was a very angry looking adder, and close to my feet I spied a dead mouse. I quickly departed to let said reptile devour it's lunch. I thought your tribute to your friend Lynne was very moving. I believe that one of the reasons people watch videos such as ours is because they cannot, for whatever reason, get out on to the fells themselves. Such a shame that she was never able to join you on a walk, but seeing the views and hearing your commentary on screen is surely the next best thing. May she rest in peace. I shall think of your video and the tribute to her the next time I am on Lingmoor. Take care, Atb Eric.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching Eric and your very kind words. I was so pleased it was a clear and very scenic summit as I did want to say something about Lynne, who was such a nice lady and a real supporter of my channel, always so encouraging too, such a loss for her family. I have only ever seen one adder before and that was on the Kentmere Horseshoe last year, when I friend shouting just stopping me standing on it. To be honest, I will be happy man if I never seen another one. Cheers Alan

[@jonathancraigguides]

@@AlanMETALMAN I have to admit that hearing them is a lot more common than seeing one. That characteristic hiss from the bracken as you walk past is usually the only sign that they are there. Many years ago we encountered one on the Cheddar Gorge circular walk, (a super stroll around the top of the gorge, well worth doing if you are in Somerset). It was sitting in the bracken next door to the path and hissing loudly at everyone passing by. Was a tad scary getting past it.

[@atrampinthehills.841]

Nice Route Alan...i have only ever been up from Blea water...i agree, everywhere is looking extra green this year

[@AlanMETALMAN]

That was the way I was going up too but realised it was easier for me from Elterwater. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@HikeCamp]

A beautiful day to be out and about in some beautiful country.. I too can start with clear skies and within a few hours it clouds up... Good on you to dedicate the video to a subscriber who passed away...

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, that was so sad and way to young as well but I was determined that this was going to be a happy video, as I knew that would have been what Lynne would have wanted. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@ervinslens]

What a beautiful trail Alan, just amazing work! Views from the top are definitely worth a hike! Nice of you to dedicate a part of the video in her honor!👏

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Many thanks, appreciate you stopping by and although it was a sad time with the passing of someone you know, I wanted it to be a happy video, cheers Alan

[@DestinationEarth]

You know I'm all about getting off on the wrong path (when it comes to hiking anyway) lol. Glad it didn't take you long to get back on the proper trail. I've also had times where I thought I recorded with the drone and it turns out I didn't! Really happy that you are able to get back outside and enjoy some of that beautiful nature. Sorry to hear about Lynne. Such a shame.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

You and me both lol, could not believe I missed a turn in the first 10 minutes but it worked out fine in the end. I was kicking my self about that drone footage and nearly did exactly the same again today, it must be my age! Thanks very much for watching and appreciate your kind words, cheers Alan

Nice hike Alan and a wonderful tribute to Lynne. Sorry to hear the sad news, sorry for her family- good to remember the positive and good times. Happy Trails, Cheers, Jen 👍💛💛🌻🌻

Another great video Alan and I’m sorry to hear about your friend Lynne. It’s always wise to take a walk nice and steady, why rush? Could tell straight away that you’ve been to the gym, especially when wearing that body building vest 🤣 Can’t beat a bum shuffle when descending a route. Good Q&A like you I’ve also been lost many times, too many to remember. Point nine of a mile an hour! You’re a human racing car! Cheers Mike 👍

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

Alan this was so nice that you dedicated this to Lynne and what you shared about her, so sad. Looked like another fabulous place to hike on a nice day accompanied by the beautiful singing birds 🙂🐦 You were up early this morning :) Loved the woods where you were and the view of that working quarry and the mountains around. Wise to take it easy while recovering though and you had some nice spots here that you could stop at, must be great to be back out again and I agree about those walls, amazing being so long. The views at the top were stunning all around and I agree with Mrs M, have to be so careful walking alone, its so true how when at a summit its so easy to take the wrong path down. Another lovely place to hike and nice that you met some people including Bob who recognised you 😃 ~ Anna 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

So nice to be back out and doing a new Fell again in the lakes and it was a sad time but I wanted it to be a happy video as I knew that is what Lynne would have wanted. I struck on lucky with the weather and the views, such a good day, apart from the sound of mountain rescue. Thanks very much for watching, very much appreciated, cheers Alan

Nice tribute at the beginning 🙏 Looks like a beautiful place its lovely and peaceful there and so lush and green :) the views are absolutely unreal! Definitely just got to go for things the weather reports are predictably wrong lol ive got to visit here one of these days x

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you very much, real nice of you to watch and so pleased it not only turned out to be a nice day but it was clear on the summit as I did want to say some words about Lynne. Fingers crossed you get to visit one day - not many places you have not been :o)

[@nigelharness9032]

Hi Alan, every walker will have got lost at some point we all do even if some dont admit it LOL, nice to see you back in the lakes and you was rewarded with terrific views and weather, shame you didnt get to walk with Lynn and your right you shouldnt waste good health and your time on this planet, hope you continue to tick off the wainwrights this year cheers nigel

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, something I regret now but still wanted to say something about Lynne at the top and real pleased I had a good day, a dry day and some great views on the summit in which to say those words. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@3degreeimages]

Amazing views! So different than Pennsylvania is the US. Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for watching! Real good of you to take the time to leave a comment as well, very much appreciate, cheers Alan

Hi Alan Hope you and Mrs Metalman are both well 😊 We often get lost as we're too busy talking 🙈 it all adds to the adventure 😂 Everything does look so green but like you said not surprised after all the rain we've had. Lovely to hear all the birds The views look stunning, we really need to plan a visit to the Lakes, it's somewhere we've not really explored. So sorry to hear about your friend, a lovely tribute.❤ Have a great weekend

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks 👍 and you too. It was so nice to get back in the Lakes and onto a new Fell I had not climbed before as well. So sad about Lynne, which I just heard about the day before, so I did want to say a few words for her at the top. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@R6PhilOutdoorEnthusiast]

Sorry to hear about your friend Lynne Alan what a great tribute to her mate. Did Lingmoor at winter in deep snow and always remember the amount of false summits on the way up 😂 also did a camp but up from Side Pike, it’s a lovely fell 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It must be over 5 years since I did Side Pike with Mrs Metalman and yes, so sad about Lynne but wanted to make this a happy video in her honour. A wildcamp in the snow sounds dam chilly to be, I prefer things a tad warmer. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah, it feels like you haven't done a hiking video in a while. But you have been doing other kinds of videos. I know it probably feels good to be out on the trail again after a while. Sorry about your subscriber/ friend who passed away. Anyways, it looked like a lovely hike with lovely weather!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I sure have missed the hiking but nice that I can drop in other things too. I was so sad to hear about Lynne and only did hear the day before the hike but wanted to make it a real happy hike and something to remember her by. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Muddipaws1308]

Dod this from Little Langdale, car park near the tarn. Never ever been in that area, it was lovely too very isolated. Great views, lovely walk enjoyed it

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and this has been on my to do list for ages and real pleased I did it as well, great views on the way up and down. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, real good of you and very much appreciated, cheer Alan

[@NorwayHikesTrails]

Nice trip Alan. Wishing you a fantastic Sunday and a great upcoming week. ATB 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks, you too! Real good of you to watch, very kind of you, cheers Alan

[@stevebuttery6757]

Hey Alan, what a lovely tribute film for Lynne, very sad indeed but I am sure she would of loved what you produced for her and I like to think she was there with you at the top. Great to see you back in the Lakes, beautiful day and great video as always. We all get lost but we usually get there in the end. Lovely fell Alan, I haven't done it so great to see your route and will hope to do it. You were up early for this one, we have the same problem with getting to the western side of the lakes with where we live, its a long drive and at this time of year you have to set off super early to get some parking. On the question front, I am interested in what food and snacks you take for your longer walks in the lakes and I notice you dont wear a garmin/fitbit watch, do you track your walk, miles, steps, health etc on your phone at all or are you not worried about those sort of things. Thanks for sharing Alan

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I heard the news about Lynne the day before the hike so shocked (as we thought she was the road to full recovery) and really sad too but I so wanted it to be a celebration of her life and not all morbid. First time up this fell for me but not the last, I loved it, great views all around and the walk from Elterwater was great too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ms.kayak7seas]

Hi Alan, It seems this hike is a little different. I am so sorry to hear your friend's passing, but she is with you on this hike and enjoy your drone flight. Thank you for sharing your personal story that I was moved by. It is marvelous! she will be happy watching this film. hahha I am not sure if she sees steep hills or down hills hahaha I did like green moss very much behind you at the beginning 2:05 as if they are green blanket. Haha Thank you for your honesty. We lost certainly many times even though we have trail app, hahaha This is a beautiful nature hike I reckon. Again I thank YOU and I am sorry to hear your loss. Look forward to next episode. Apologies, that I had to take care of an unexpected emergency and just came home late night this Sunday.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for stopping by and your very kind words which I appreciate. It was such a shock when I found out about Lynne but I was determined to make this video a happy one and something to really celebrate her life. I really enjoyed the hike and it was so nice to get back out on a brand new Fell again, cheers Alan

[@thegeordiefellwalker8878]

nice tribute alan & a nice hike up lingmoor 👍 funnily enough it was my 1st proper hill in the lakes . must have been about 25 year ago 🥴

[@GaryMorris222]

Grate video buddy iv done this one with black crag done the same way never got the view so will return 😀 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I was so lucky with the views and weather, especially when you consider the year we have been having, so real happy with the hike, always enjoy a walk from Elterwater, no matter which way we go. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@yasminshikingmission]

Hi Alan 😊 lovely weather day for you and one I haven’t done yet. Always got to take it easy when recovering. Looked a nice route up, the scramble looked very short? Is that right or was there any more you didn’t film? Just wandering if it’s a route up I’d be ok to do. Looked a nice spot to stop for lunch. Lovely memory place to hold a memory and celebration of your friend life. Thoughts go out to her family and friends.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

That scramble is just like I showed it and to be honest, when I came down 3 lads before me just walked down it no problem at all, so I am sure you could do it fine. So sad about Lynne and such a shame that we never got to do a hike together. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Butchyboysadventures]

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and yes, so sad about Lynne, far to young and such a shame that we never got to do that hike together, cheers Alan
