Thank you, Mary. The BEST YET!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much John - I really did enjoy this one. It was nice to have more time to film more than rush against the light or the cold 😁

[@dianecasady816]

Beautiful pictures, this was very inspiring.

Happiness in a video. What more could we, as your followers ask for? Thank you Mary.

Lovely video of your adventure. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely video. Fun, as well. Your still

[@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling]

The Reservoir is really low. I looked over Errwood Reservoir from Foxlow Edge, it is really low this year. You know I'm so, so tempted to go up there this week but as I'm on The Ethel Challenge I want to leave this one for last. I hiked Parkhouse Hill and Chrome Hill from Hollins Clough. Parkhouse Hill was a very steep drop-off on the way down. Brilliant vlog Mary, really enjoyed this. Just started out my journey late in life but really enjoying The Peaks. The wind is bad when I try to record. Your mic certainly cut that down to zero wind noise. I think I may have to invest. Loving your vlogs. Thanks for sharing.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Chris, really pleased to hear you enjoyed it and good luck with your Ethel Challenge!

[@nicolecrethar8116]

I would absolutely love to see what you make for your dehydrator sometime! Wonderful videos! Thank you. 🙏❤️

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Nicole - I do have a couple on my channel somewhere! One is when I was preparing for the Cleveland Way.

[@andrewgreen7996]

Great too see you out about love that area off kinder just beautiful up there yes that's the flight path for the planes landing at Manchester so busy but what a place to camp👍👍👍❤

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Andrew!

[@hikermikem8]

😁 morning Mary. I'm glad you found a good spot on Kinder Scout to wildcamp. Great views down to Kinder res and mermaids pool. Shame about the flight path and grumbly sheep. Great food and very healthy plus great still shots 👍😁x

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Mike! 😊

[@DemiGod..]

636m . A bit smaller than Scottish mountains, Munros starting at 914m, Ben Nevis the highest being 1345m, but higher than the local hills in Edinburgh, the highest being Scald Law at 579m. Nice video watching how much fun you are having, your joy being infectious.

[@AlbertNakano]

Wow! You had the place all to your self. I'm not going to lie, I did laugh at your night recordings. I do recommend ear plugs for light sleepers. On a side note, I just got back from a three night, four day, volunteer, trail maintenance, backpacking trip with the PCTA. Our team of eight logged out the trail starting at Chinook Pass heading south and exiting at White Pass. I just looked back at your PCT playlist and it's day 128 when you hit White Pass.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks Albert, I hoped viewers would realise it was for a bit using sound effects and not recorded noises 😆 Yes I often wear ear plugs - but never when I'm on my own. I like to hear what's happening around me just in case. I made up for the sleep the next night! Oh what a great section to do some trail maintenance, good for you 👏

[@whowantsachannel1983]

Your night sounds segment was hilarious! Loved the sheep, especially the one with racing stripes ;-). Great seeing you out and about.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So glad you enjoyed it - and the sheep noises 😂🐑🐑

[@trealtalk4259]

Great upload mary 👍

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So kind of you to say - thank you! 😁

[@suecox8355]

Counting sheep to sleep. 😁😁🦋❤

[@ChrisJB]

I thought I had seen pretty much every KS wild camping video on YT so it was good to find another and see someone else's take on it.....really enjoyable. 👍

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Great to hear you enjoyed it, thanks so much!

[@Slowhiker-xw2kp]

Loved the photography!!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you!

[@keithcarper8809]

Kinder Scout is so beautiful, and you certainly picked "the" spot to camp. Don't you love wild camping, the sound of dissident sheep and winged night things? I'm sorry for such a dreadful night but Tinkerbell and the three sheep is what I picture. "there's someone in my bed! Heeeyyy!." And the effort to film and do walk-bys while not feeling your best. Thank you, Mary.

[@georgewishart3308]

Sound like you need to add ear plugs to your kit. Great video as always

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

I would have them if camping with others, but as I was solo camping I wanted to be more aware. I made up for the hours lost the next day... didn't need to count sheep that night 😂🐑

[@ItsaCampingThing]

You are incredible Mary. I love watching your videos and you do inspire me to do adventures just like this. Have a wonderful start to 2023 and I look forward to your adventures this year. Paul

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Paul!

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Your still shots were amazing. Thank you

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So glad you liked them Betty Jo - I'm thinking of adding them in on all my videos now when I take photos on my adventures.

[@leereid6147]

Haha I did my first camp up Kinder scout last night and I had 40 planes and red grouse going all night. I managed 90 minutes sleep so I feel your pain and I am not a light sleeper. 😂

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

It's certainly not the peaceful night you expect is it 😆

[@TheMrsKKB]

What a beautiful video!! I get so “homesick” watching it, I have such wonderful memories hiking there a few times including our Pennine Way section hike 3 years ago and I swear… those are the same sheep 😂😂 I had to laugh out loud when you put on the night section…. Darn those planes & sheep 😉 thank you for sharing your wonderful experience and beautiful spirit 💚

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So glad you enjoyed it and you found the night time sound effects section funny 🤪💚

[@martinwelch5774]

A nice, quality visit to Kinder Scout. Too bad about the air traffic. When I visited the Tetons this summer the Jackson airport was closed for renovations, so no planes. Yay! After watching, I had to cook up some lentils with curry and sip a little of Millie's Lemongrass sipping broth 😊

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Martin 😊 Wow, I bet that was great in the Tetons without the planes! Yay you like the sipping broth too - delicious isn't it!

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

Thanks for sharing these, Mary. Loved the photos at the end. 👍🏕️🙂

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Brian, really pleased to hear you enjoyed it ☺️

[@anitavincent7447]

OMG. Everything about this video is absolutely beautiful. I love your Sunday morning videos, they seem to set the mood for quite awhile. Maybe the sheep were there as guardians (albeit very noisy ones)? Or like you thought you were probably too close for their comfort, either way they are gorgeous. I so appreciate traveling with you, you are a beautiful soul. The end photography was superb, still working on that book? 🥰🙏🏻

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you Anita, reading your comments always warms my heart 💚 Yes, still working on the book - thinking of calling it the never ending story 😂

[@pettipaw]

Beautiful open views you have in the UK. Thanks for taking us along on your trip. Sorry about the planes!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Glad you enjoyed it Lynn 😊

[@mreilly1325]

Cooking with Mary sounds great, I've seen a lot of your vlogs and love the food you have prepared, definitely better than the summit to eat that i take on a wild camp, p.s great volg as always

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you so much - I do enjoy cooking 😀

[@johnalden5821]

Your videos always have a way of being both calming and inspiring at the same time. And in this case, the overnight sounds segment had the added bonus of being really funny, as well. What an incredible place to camp! I imagine though, that you have to be careful to find a little hollow out of the direct wind, or it could be pretty rough in a rainstorm. Plus, I noticed that you did not have to secure your food outside the tent somewhere (at least you did not mention it). Obviously, this is because there are no large predators. Many places over here are requiring bear canisters now, even in the East. So only sheep where you are -- but they can still keep you up at night.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So glad you enjoyed the nighttime sound effects 😆 Yes I was very lucky to have no wind that night - I'd checked before to make sure but sometimes it's not always accurate. No there is no need to store food elsewhere here as no trouble with wildlife which is good.

[@DaveGoodman1959]

Nice one Mary and great photos, been a while since I was on Kinder but OMG those planes 🤪 ATB and thanks 🌞

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Glad you like it Dave - thank so much!

[@donaldgerig9515]

So very nice Mary. Glad you are able to get out often in such nice places. Don from Oregon

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Yes I am very lucky Don, it's a lovely part of the world - as is Oregon! (although it was mainly covered in snow when I was there!) 😊

[@yonderoutdoorsuk]

Great video. Must confess I laughed my head off when the plane and sheep noises came along. Hope you avoided the weather. I went via Brown Knoll and it was pretty damp up there.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thought you'd like them - ah the wonders of sound effects! Although it really did feel like that! 😂 Yes I stayed nice and dry returning via Jacobs ladder and the bridlepath.

[@jonuk2640]

He’s doing Scotland, you both done the PCT 2019 so your both hard core hiker’s , he starts the beginning of September

[@trakyboy5128]

Wow things sure getting busy at night !! Baaaawh 😂 8) Is the ground easy to stake out there ???? Peace Mary and keep on rocking the free world 🌍🤠

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

I know - the wonders of sound effects 😂 Yes where I camped was really easy to stake as I was away from the rocks. Hope you are keeping well Traky boy!

[@trakyboy5128]

@@MarysOutdoorAdventures yes, doing ok Mary. Thanks for asking 😊 Blessings to you and and that lucky guy with you ☺️ 😂😇

[@paulaventimiglia7633]

I love everything about this video, this is exactly why I subscribed to your channel. Thank you for taking the time to record and share your overnight adventure Mary. I have watched a number of your videos along with all of your PCT videos and decided to purchase the same tigerwall tent. However mine does not have the privacy section that runs around the bottom of the tent like yours does and wondered if you thought this may be a fault or if it is a new version of the tent, (I only bought it at the beginning of this year). Would love to know your thoughts as I was quite disappointed that it did not have this privacy section!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So kind of you to say Paula, thank you so very much 😊 I have just looked on the Big Agnes website and yes they have redesigned it since I purchased it and did this video - what a shame as I loved that privacy screen too!

[@outdooradventuresdave]

Hi Mary how you doing hope you had a great time on kinda im hoping to go before end of month train to edale then decide which way when get there 😊 never know 8f you around might bump into you 😊 take care lv from sheffield

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Have fun up there, I bet the heather will be out in full bloom then too!

[@cherylkaye]

Love this one. What is the lighter you use please? It is different to the one in your gear list video. Thanks. 😊

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks Cheryl. Its the Lifesystems plasma lighter - amzn.to/3A7brhx

[@cherylkaye]

@@MarysOutdoorAdventures Brilliant. Thank you. That is just what I have been looking for. 💜

[@jonuk2640]

Hi Mary, loved you on the PCT, would be really cool if you could meet up with IBTAT and give some good advice

[@OUTDOORALLY]

Enjoyed that , new sub here 👍🏻🏕

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thanks so much Outdoor Ally!

[@sidewaysid]

Just found you, what a lovely person. I used to live in Glossop and have done Kinder at least 25 times, last time in snow with idiots who thought they knew more than me, you are wonderful doing the wild camp up there, I have never done such a thing, I have done 68 Wainwright fells, but now at my age my back will not allow me to carry on, I am gutted. I'm going to go watch all your videos

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Hi Phil and welcome aboard! I bet you know every nook and cranny up on Kinder - it's a great area isn't it. So sorry to hear your back is preventing you doing more than I'm sure you want, I hope my videos bring a little bit of the joy of being outdoors to you 😊

[@donald9413]

Very nice Mary, You are a lovely girl 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you Donald 😊

[@dalmotavares824]

Uai meu comentário sumiu.. No meu canal tem um link com vídeo e fotos do Pico da Bandeira, show. Maria tem UAI-FI na sua barraca ? Oh! MY GOD. Do you have wifi in your tent? Humm 😝🎩

[@alangreen820]

Why have you not got proper walking boots??

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

I prefer to hike in trail runners. I hiked the entire PCT in them and find them much more comfortable and better for my feet. I do sometimes wear hiking boots in bad weather though.

[@peterrouleau5992]

Perhaps go a bit slower❤️
