GREENBURN ROUND - STEEL FELL, CALF CRAG, GIBSON KNOTT, HELM CRAG with DAVE GLENN HEWITT & DAVE ALLEN

[@davidgeorge141]

Every time I watch one of your vlogs I can’t help but think of you as the Johnny Vegas of the fells! Little in looks but the sense of humor too. Love it!

[@daveostlemountainman]

i met johnny randomly once on a street in manchester.. my humor is very dry, alot of folk might not like it but everyone likes a guy falling over eh haha :)

[@RockStar67]

Superb Fellas that's a great round one of my favourites...Great to see you Dave Allan and my old pal the Hiking Viking Dave Glenn Hewitt. It was really sad to see ya fall in't bog Marra 😭🤔 🤣.. next time bring sum spare underpants along with ya spare socks. A grand day out on't Hills nice video lads 😊

[@daveostlemountainman]

Cheers ol lad. Am sure ya devastated about ma misfortune eh :/ .. aye was a good day with cracking bunch of fellas.. med up for the nee views eh.. cheers for watching, tek care :)

One the most underrated rounds in the Lake District and I did it the same way round as you, 2 years ago with a friend. Fair weather hiking sounds a dam fine idea when you look at the mist and rain and I like to take my time on a hike and have plenty of comfort breaks too lol. Lots of false summits on Steel Fell but with you on getting the hard work done first and luckily we had frost and ice rather than mud and slippery rock. 'The good news is I am over'....lol, that's what you get for wishing that on the others - karma - but just as well you had spare socks🤣. When we got to Helm Crag my friend climbed the Howitzer, which inspired me to follow her but given she was 35 years younger and 5 boot sizes smaller, I decided against it! Cheers Alan

[@daveostlemountainman]

Id like to say I learned my lesson but until I get Dave Allen waist deep in bog I wont be satisfied now haha.. The whole central fells in general now Ive finished them are the boggiest in the entire lakes but great for shorter treks out even in mist. I will climb the howitzer one day, I even spotted the route but the rocks just looked too greasy so didnt fancy risking it.. Thanks for watching alan, tek care pal :)

[@DAoutdoors]

@@daveostlemountainmanThat’s not nice David! 🤣

[@jc1097431]

Has your mam seen this ...absolutely love it😀😀😀 . Its a cracking round this ...that bog on the top can be a tricky B****** as you found out...almost finished now son..keep going and thanks for sharing..take care.JC

[@daveostlemountainman]

she hasn't text me yet to shout at es so am gonna assume not yet haha.. aye its another comfortable walk, bit slippy but plenty to explore up here, ill be back here soon :)

[@tubbatravels]

Nice to see 3 daves out having a laugh and a walk. Found your channel thru mr allen. Great stuff, loved the stumble and the giggles. Liked and subbed.

[@daveostlemountainman]

Cheers lad.. hes probably still laughin now.. i think he enjoyed it haha.. Thanks for watching lad :)

[@DAoutdoors]

@@daveostlemountainmanToo right I’m still laughing. I don’t know why mine, it’s a big wheel but it comes around eventually. 🤣🤣

[@daveostlemountainman]

well if the bogs gonna get ya its got about one more month.. then ya prolly safe for another 10 months eh :)@@DAoutdoors

[@DAoutdoors]

Ey up Marra, brilliant mate, you did well getting 24 minutes out of that yesterday. Was great craic, makes such a change to see someone else stacking it other than myself.🤣🤣 We just need to contact Ordnance Survey now to tell them the area between Steel Fell and Calf Crag is to be re-named Ostle Bog! 🤣 Great to meet you and t’other Dave. All the best mate. 😀⛰🥾

[@daveostlemountainman]

aye am pretty pleased with the result, its always gonna be hard to mek a mountain video without views but hopefully theres enough to entertain, if not its always a good memory for me to watch back in future eh, mebs when am over 50 and wondering how i ever managed without sticks haha.. Thanks for coming Dave, couldnt of got 24 minutes out of this without you both, cheers :)

[@malgreenley-lakedistrictvi5230]

Lovely video, Dave. I do not envy you all doing that section from Steel Fell to Calf Crag - as you said it's even boggy in dry conditions. I've done this three times, I think, but never anti clockwise like you lads did. Keep on keepin' on.

[@daveostlemountainman]

its a great walk.. not sure id recommend a wild camp up there as you'd struggle to find a dry square of grass as ya know.. one to revisit for a clearer day me thinks. :)

[@hikingmatt4113]

I remember doing this round Dave. Had to abandon it on the first attempt at Gibson Knott as the wind was horrendous!

[@daveostlemountainman]

aye we couldnt even see gibson knott to be fair even though we went over it.. thats why i flashed a little clip of what its like in nice conditions.. always a good walk when ya have company tho to push each other. Thanks for watching chief :)

[@hikingmatt4113]

@@daveostlemountainman no probs mate. Hope you get them cracked soon. You can’t have many more to go? I’ve got a week up there in a couple of weeks. I’ll try and post a video or 2 then:-)

[@daveostlemountainman]

20 odd left now mate, freedom approaches.. aye will look forward to the vids lad. tek care :)@@hikingmatt4113

[@gm4wha]

Shame about the weather but i am hoping to do this walk this summer. Good video though as are all the videos you have done. I still have 63 of the 214 to do and your videos are very useful as i can see the route you took. Just out of interest which Garmin watch do you use? I take it it has 1:25000 mapping on it? Many thanks.

[@daveostlemountainman]

Cheers lad aye bitof a mishap on this one haha.. the watch i use is garmin instinct.. you upload gpx files to it and it gives you a very basic line to follow of the route.. nothing fancy just a line but helps alot.. thanks for watching, tek care :)

[@Butchyboysadventures]

Belta vlog dave I'm in stitches here about your mam pissing all over hahaahha class then the gorilla in the mist belter pal love vlogs like this when the lads get together brilliant even Mr allen saying he builds roads then comes back to fix them class couldn't write it hahahaah I'm also having a good laugh at ya self saying sod them I'm over then bang your in the drink absolutely class vlog mate defo my favourite watch on youtube for a long time brilliant dave and Mr hewit and Mr allen looked a blast love it big YESSS from me topper this is what a vlog is all about bunch of loonatics living the dream 👍 😂

[@daveostlemountainman]

Loonatics eh, your too kind my friend haha.. aye next time i tek mother it'll have to be one with a bog in the carpark i think :/.. 2 spot on fellas, its great to go alone but much easier to make videos when you have someone to bounce off. Thanks for watching lad, looking forward to ya next :)

[@Butchyboysadventures]
