Easter Weekend Lake District Wild Camp & Swim

Escape the Crowds: Wild Camping & Swimming at an Underrated Tarn
Today I am wild camping at Bowscale Tarn. After starting in the small village of Mungrisedale, we headed up towards Bannerdale Crags. From here we walked along to the summit of Bowscale and then down to Bowscale Tarn. Here I tried my first wild swim of the year, if you can call it that...

Just got a 3rd of the way through your video, and Black Crag came to mind, as in I wonder if he started out like you, with an enthusiasm for the outdoors and a love of getting out and away from the hustle and bustle of life. I've said before, you're commentary is spot on as is the views,and I wreckon your channel will be as big as black crag's pretty soon. Maybe reach out and collaborate for a one off 😄

"No trace....no case MOFO" You own it!'😂

[@uptosummit_]

Haha his videos are great, maybe one day

[@james-qw1mi]

[@uptosummit_]

Haha the drink from the previous night certainly won't have helped

[@neilsennett5040]

Rubbish. Like a pair of giggly schoolgirls.

[@uptosummit_]

Sorry you're a sad man Neil. It's called having a good time, maybe you should give it a go sometime :)
