Cam is one smart dog, finding his way home, I love watching him joyfully swimming in the creeks and lakes.

[@MoosebearAdventures]

Enjoy your hike ⛺😊

[@siborgjasper]

I really feel for you both... I've been there with my border collie. He ran all the way home too. So clever. He's no longer with me now in body and I miss him every day. Glad you're back I find your videos so peaceful and calming to watch. Take care both of you xx

[@FablesandFells]

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that on both counts. I'm sure you have him a wonderful life.

[@siborgjasper]

@@FablesandFells Yes, he had a good life fell walking any chance we got. We have a cocker spaniel now 😊 She's uet to see the fells. Can't wait. Take care you two xx

[@ΑΩ1388]

So very glad to hear from you again, Chloe. I'm staring at my screen, and for once in my life, I really can't find the words. It galls me, but I'm left with nothing but a stupid cliche: With this current video, you've completely outdone yourself. Every aspect of the video was it's own distinct pleasure: The sound, the visuals, the words spoken, the tone of your voice, the literary quotes, the gestalt. In a culture composed of sensational crap (at best), works of true beauty are rarer than rubies, and your channel is truly a gem. Thank you!

[@FablesandFells]

Aw that's one of the nicest comments I have ever received, thank you so much. I'm so glad you continue to enjoy them 😊

[@lcoconstruction2660]

As someone who has cancer, not terminal thank God, I love the serenity and headspace your videos give me! Nature has its own healing ways! Hugs to you and the bonnie pooch, stay positive and keep sharing your journey!❤

I'm so happy to hear you enjoy them. Wishing you all the best with your health going forward 💚

[@troymadison7082]

As someone who suffers from multiple auto-immune diseases, I can empathize with your plight and I pray for your continued good health and well being. Also, I'm very happy to see that Cam is recovered and well and I look forward to your next video.

Right on 🙌🏼😄

[@BentbrooksRambles]

Your marriage of image and music and your evocative color grading is such a treat! Wordsworth would appreciate the rhythmical creation of beauty that your cinematography captures. Cam is the best of companions, too, especially on such a courageous, more vulnerable excursion as this. But I am reminded by your example, "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." I suspect you know the author. Thank you, and cheers to your coziness. Thank you for inviting us along!

[@FablesandFells]

Aw thank you so much, that's lovely. I sure do haha 🙏 It's one of my favourites. Thank you for coming along 😊

[@RonHutchCraft2]

Excellent Video, Immensely Peaceful. I had a dog (beagle) once myself & I let him roam free when climbing the foothills of North Georgia, USA. I lost poor Levi so I got very emotional when I heard of what happened to Cam. So glad he/she is okay now.

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you. I'm sorry to hear about Levi, sounds like he had a great life 🙏

[@marinman3551]

The worlds in a pretty painful state at the moment, this beautiful few moments should make everyone realise it needn't be so for the individual that has the luxury to immerse oneself into nature .....there is no better way to remind oneself of this than to watch fables and fells, this, for me is the equal of any multi million pound documentary the BBC do so well ....thank you!

[@FablesandFells]

Aw that means so much, thank you. I have a lot of improvements to make and I'll never reach that level, but it's so kind of you to appreciate my efforts ♥️

[@madcat1007]

Chloe you give so much joy from your videos. Please keep going in spite of the pain. 3 months is too long!!

[@FablesandFells]

That's nice to hear, glad you enjoy them. It's been a struggle doing all the long hours of editing with my back/neck at the moment but doing my best to get the next one out next week!

[@jnicklin]

Love the Lake District had summer hols there this year it has similar weather to us in scotland always raining 😂 plan to return soon. I was told to get into nature more as well reduce stress and improve circulation did contemplate open water swimmer . But Ive had raynaud's since young but got worse since I hit my 50's and developing rheumatoid arthritis because of it now. So I appreciate how you feel that some days are hard. Love the video though great escapism

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you so much for your kind 'Super Thanks'! That's so generious of you! Haha yes that doesn't surprise me, I think we're the wettest place in the country 😅 Sorry to hear of your health complications. I imagine the cold water would be counterproductive for your Raynaud's? Hopefully you can wrap up nice and walk and enjoy the walking nonetheless. For hiking, I always wear proper outdoor mittens instead of gloves as my hands get very cold and slow going into winter and I find mittens help to keep my hands so much warmer. Enjoy your wanders 😊

[@jnicklin]

Read Breath by James Nestor and Ultra Processed People by Chris van Tulleken. Both could help your inflammatory. Also, barefoot shoes will strengthen your feet and take pressure off your back after transitioning to them.

Thanks for the suggestions Harry.

[@ItsMe-wf6kz]

You are an amazing film maker. You produce wonderfully relaxing yet inspirational videos. You have a great eye for pleasing compositions and a truly great ear for appropriate soundtracks. I am sorry you and beautiful spaniel had a traumatic experience at the hands of people and their out of control and untrained dogs. These people make me sick Very recently my father who is in his 80s.was walking his little dog and was attacked by an out of control staffie. His dog suffered bites and so did he has he tried to protect his dog. I am glad you are both ok and are beginning to enjoy once more the natural wonder that is the lake district. Thank you for all your work to bring us these beautiful films

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you so much for your very kind words, that's much appreciated. I'm so sorry to hear your father went through that, I hope they have both recovered ok?

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks so much for continuing to watch them Liam 😊

[@WyeExplorer]

A pleasure to watch and listen. I've not really observed any of your videos but I resonated with this - the bodily pain and the relief found in nature. I mean it is a vibration that enables us to ascend the pain either body or mental or both. I'm a waterling too - I can't live without being in the water. I'm mellow as a cello each time. Sorry. to hear about your dog. I had a violent time in life and it is traumatic although dogs don't have the same ego as we do and do not get offended so much. He is a lovely beaming life. Well, them simple things work alright - I've always got the brew out as a raving biophiliac. Many thanks for the inspiration. Take care out there and be well. Mark (Herefordshire)

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks so much Mark, he really is. I'm glad you are able to enjoy nature with a brew too ☕

[@WyeExplorer]

@@FablesandFells A pleasure. Yeah, just been out into as special place now. Have a good week ahead.

[@HuskyScrambles]

Great to see him out loving life again! People have no idea the damage out of control dogs can do both physically and emotionally. Amazing he found his way home, they surprise us every day! He’s a lucky boy to have you 🖤

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you. So glad he isn't traumatised long term. Unfortunately these dogs had been involved in an incident previously so should have never been loose like that. Like you say, people really don't realise the impact. I'll never forget that sight and sound. So glad he made his way home.

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and cold swimming was just a part of life. There is something mystical about swimming in cold water while it's raining. The quieted forests of Autumn create the perfect blank canvas for the sounds of the rain and rivers. It's just so peaceful.

[@FablesandFells]

Yes absolutely. That looks like such a beautiful area. I've been to Portland and Seattle but would love to explore the countryside.

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

@@FablesandFells the Cascade foothills, anywhere near Mount Hood, is just excellent. If you ever make it back out there, check out some of the main mountains. Dormant volcanoes covered in snow make for a beautiful background while going for a cold dip! 😊

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you, it is stunning, I hope to be back 😊

Thank you for another lovely video Chloe. As i sit here watching it is early Spring 🌼, thankfully another Winter is at an end and i am gearing up for yet more encounters with Mother Nature both here in the North Yorkshire Dales and my beloved Lake District. Hope that you are well and planning your own unique journeys ❤.

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks Paul. The extra light is a relief isn't it. It has been a longer Winter and seems to be lingering on, but hopeful it will ease up soon!

[@stephenrussell6074]

Hi Chloe Please be careful when burning candles or having fires in closed spaces. The pm2.5s they build up can be at concentrations many times that of a busy roadside. Use a high capacity air purifier that removes them and smaller particles. Or better get electric copies. They can aggravate chronic inflammatory disease and stay in the body for as long as three months.

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks for the thought 🙏

[@nigeljohnson6596]

[@FablesandFells]

Ahh thank you. Haha he sure does, he's such a character 😄

[@kokopelau6954]

I do understand your pain, many years ago I broke my back and tore a bunch of muscles and damaged nerves. I have been living in constant pain since. It took me a while to be able to get out and start doing things again. And tomorrow I'm going on my first solo hike in camp in many, many years. May even post it at some point.

[@FablesandFells]

Your film work is fantastic. I find myself being jealous of people with your talent. You make it look so easy.

[@FablesandFells]

Aw thank you, but I wouldn't be jealous. I was in a lot of pain creating this and the amount of computer hours I had to put in to complete it only made my body worse off. I think talent (as much as I appreciate your kind words) is really just effort and anyone can put that in 🙏

[@LiamDC23]

I love that you don't post so frequently, but I am really sorry to hear that chronic pain may be at least part of the reason. I can relate, as I have a rare condition called XLH (X-linked hypophosphatemia). I'm a lecturer in Geography, and I teach all of our first-year students in the Lake District at Bowscale Tarn every year, so I can relate to how important getting out in nature is...even if it is rarer than we would perhaps like. I feel like your videos always seem to arrive at exactly the right time. I have felt terrible for a couple of weeks, and it's amazing how much this video has reset my priorities. Thank you :)

[@FablesandFells]

I'm so glad they resonate with you. Hats off to you for doing such a full on job while managing that condition! That's wonderful that you take them into the Lakes. Thanks so much for watching 😊

[@cruachan1191]

Wild swimming in October is a bit too hardcore for me! Was out on my bike today and it's very cold here in central Scotland when the wind picks up, the autumn scenery is very nice though and it's always nice to stop for a wee coffee and picnic when the opportunity arises.

[@RichardMcKenna1]

Such a beautiful soul. Watching your videos is so calming, love them. Dog attacks can be so traumatic for both you and your dog. Mine was attacked a few years ago, he came out with some pretty serious wounds. The way I dealt with it was to get us both straight back out there interacting with other dogs. I didn’t try to keep him away as some would frightened something wound happen. I think doing this help him (and me if I’m honest) overcome any lingering fear. Anyway, I look forward to seeing your next adventure 😊

[@FablesandFells]

So sorry to hear that. I'm glad your is doing better. I gave him some decompression time and then I organised some walks with calm dogs so that has worked well for him. He's endured so many incidents now I was worried this would be the last straw but he's done so well 😊

thank you, very relaxing video. i understand that chronic pain. i did not know that cold water swimming would relieve it. i do seek out cooler temps to do most of my outdoor activities,, seems the heat is tough on my joints and is just not as enjoyable as a cold day.

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks for watching. I think it varies by the type of pain. I use heat as a muscle relaxant, but I find cold best for inflammation.

[@JTucker-BW500]

yeah, muscle pain i don't deal with much,. however joint inflammation is a issue i deal with from time to time. when i was maybe 6 years old i had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in my legs that lasted for about 6 months. i couldn't walk very well,, so much pain and stiffness. i grew out of it thank God. Doc told me after that scar tissue formed and pain may come and go. so it does. anyway before i bore you to death, its like you stated, cool soothes the aching alot!

Brilliant video as always. Lovely editing. Lord of the rings has inspired my love for nature and adventure, so it's wonderful to see others that have clearly taken the same inspiration from those books and films. Glad to hear Cam is doing well, I remember seeing your IG post about him. Please continue to make these videos if you can, they bring me a sense of calmness similar to one of my favourite tv shows, Detectorists. Worth a watch if you haven't seen it. I'm not and likely never will be into metal detecting, but the show brings an indescribable peacefulness to me, and displays the joys of nature in a wholesome way. It's also a good laugh too.

Ahh thank you 😊 I have seen it but not watched it properly, so I will have to go find it again. I have actually been casually interested in doing some detecting 😄
