Fair play, doing that one handed so that we get to join you on the way was a top effort. Your commitment at the top to try and capture the best possible panoramic view possible by doing the 360 sideways rolly-polly was above and beyond mate 👍🏼

Nearly at 25k now so its jumped a little bit in past couple months!

[@KieronGazza]

I’ve watched this 3 times now by far your best vid, no one ever films the whole way up, for me the journey is always more important than the destination when it comes to wild camping, keep it up Liam mate YOU CLAG

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Thats a brilliant comment mate.. love that.. it’s still 1 of my favourite hikes/camps/vids! That i’ve done.

[@twiglet2214]

I'm looking forward to being present at the book signing when you publish The Epic Adventures of Claggy O'Scran - Scarf Hell and the Vintage Chicken Sandwich.It'll make Harry Potter look like a chip shop menu covered in vinegar and the remnants of over fried batter !Japanese jam jar jugglers - it's soooo exciting i could crush a grape.After traversing Lord wotsits rake you must of had the feeling ' If i were chocolate - i'd eat myself ' - i know i would Liam.

[@JeffSea_]

It's completely nuts that you did Lords Rake and the West wall traverse one handed AND a bagging video to boot. Amazing Liam, amazing son.

[@vinnie5519]

😂 That fall was amazing mate... Well Styled 😂

[@chrisbryant8317]

I've done Lord's Rake four times and found it pretty easy. Always fancied the West Wall Traverse but wondered what it was like, now I know. Thanks for a great vid.

[@seanking6409]

And the oscar for the best rolly Polly goes to............lol

[@camping_guru_uk]

I was with you all the way up... 😮 Thanks for showing me something I'll never do.

[@JohnM26-b2i]

Omg 😳 my feet were tingling watching that!! That was a awesome but very sickly watch. One of the most tense Vlogs I've ever watched. Great effort Liam 👏👏👏👍

[@kingcurry6594]

I did this route 30 years ago. From descriptions of Lakeland walkers, I had expected it to be much worse than it was: by comparison with some routes I've done in Scotland, it's not that dangerous in dry weather. In winter, under snow, that would be very different. It's just a very arduous slog up a steep. loose scree slope. Falling rock from climbers higher up is much more of a danger than falling. The massive boulders were not there when I did it. I suspect these are the remains of the huge chockstone which used to be near the top, but which fell down about 10 years ago. It wasn't there when I did it in the early 90s and must have fallen off the side of the mountain sometime in the late 90s/early 2000s. I'm glad I wasn't under the f**king thing when it fell.

[@jamesturner9114]

Absolutely the best video of Lords Rake I have seen. I cannot believe the quality. All that using just one hand. Thankyou.

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video mate!

[@juliemclean6266]

Awesome! Epic climb and as if it wasnt flipping good enoght a couple of typhoons skimmed across your head space 👍 love it! This is one of the best outdoors videos ive ever watched. Thanks for taking us along.♥️♥️👌

[@Sun_Flower1]

I did this route Summer 1988. Challenging but very satisfying. Loved remembering it through your video. Thanks. 😊

[@emz_adventure]

Bloody brilliant. That was one butt clenching watch. Fair play to ya 🎉worth it for the pitch and sunset I say. Well done

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Hahah butt clenching is a good way to describe it 😅 thanks for watching 😊

[@blamhof]

Great video. It's certainly a steep climb up Lord's Rake on tough terrain but a lot less scary since the big chockstone at the top fell a few years ago. It used to loom over you at the top of the gully and was huge, you had your hand on a piece of it at 7.00 The rumour was mountain rescue sent it tumbling as it was starting to crack and a good chance it could have gone with people going up. Take care. Mick.

[@paulinedelaney6385]

I was fair knackered out watching you do this climb!

[@Del-Lebo]

No cutting away mate! This is massively inspiring!!! Good Bloke, Indeed!!!! Thank you!!!! Amazing adventure Sir!

What a gorgeous day to have some liberty caps just a few ahhh bliss 🙏👉🌞👍

[@SisterAbdullahX]

I’ve watched quite a few videos of that route now with a view to doing it myself, some by KZbinrs with many more followers than you, but have to say, yours was by far the best. You showed the full route unedited and the camera facing back at you really showed how steep it is and what you had to do to get up it. Brilliant. I think I’ll still be shitting myself when I do it, though.

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Oh thank you for that, kind words. I try to show the route the best I can whilst staying safe. Sometimes the routes can look a lot easier on camera so its best to just get out there and have a look! Thanks for watching

[@johnbyrne9019]

Awesome Liam, absolutely brill, only person to traverse a mountain and falls on his arse on the flattest summit ever 😂😂😂. Maybe one of the midges tripped you up.

[@sunkissed8440]

💩 the bed! I am absolutely exhausted after that 😅 EPIC climb Fella! Well done, amazing watch ❤

[@rowancrafts]

I thought that I was living the last few moments of my life when I did Lord's Rake many years ago in the wet. Another great trip out. Thanks David

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

I wouldn’t fancy doing it in any bad weather! Thanks for watching mate.

[@garethdean8173]

Cracking video pal, I was so relieved for you when you got up there!! This section is on leg 3 of the Bob Graham Round and I ran it a few months back - I was literally crying inside whilst doing this climb - proper bricking it!! Never again!! haha

I felt nervous for you going up that! What an achievement lad! Congrats 🙏

[@DrakeMegrim]

Great scamble. I didn't have it in me to do Lord's Rake. We ended up doing Greencove Wyke. Maybe one day I'll try this route to prove that I can. Thanks for videos like this. They really help you visualize what the trail is going to look like.

[@carolfitton2007]

Wow! This video was brilliant, you sound so at easy on film and nothing seems too much effort. Hope your channel grows and grows your a star in the making. 👍

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Wow thanks Carol, appreciate that so much 😊👍🏼

[@stuarthatton1973]

[@alfiehenshall688]

I'm knackered just watching you ! - hats off to you , you mad bugger ! 🫣⛺️

[@westy838]

One of your best videos to date Liam in my opinion. Not many hikers have the confidence to safely film the routes you chose which gave perspective on just how steep, and potentially dangerous they can be. And as for the views you captured. Stunning mate 👊😎

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Thanks Marc, I try to capture the route the best I can whilst keeping it safe 👌🏼 The camera doesn’t always do it justice and It can seem easier than it actually is.

[@arlyon]

OMG……. If you did a “rolly polly” a bit earlier, I doubt we’d be seeing this video…..😅 Excellent video as always Liam👍🏻

[@Lostmissionary]

[@tammym2753]

wow…. i was a nervous wreck watching this … and when you did those 180° or even the 360° snapshots, it made my stomach turn… let alone the almost vertical ascent and standing on the edge of the narrow footpaths, that just drops down?!! 😵😰😵‍💫🥴🤢 You are one brave man Liam! may your channel grown from strength to strength and please take care of yourself!! 😎🤙 From Gloucestershire

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Well done bud. That’s why I love Scafell. ATB - Dave 😎🏔️⛺️👌🏻

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Thanks Dave, yeah its certainly worth doing. ( Not sure i’ll be in too much of a rush to do it again mind 😅 ) but I did enjoy it and its worth it for the buzz when you pop out of the top. Take it easy mate.

[@wanderingstar3633]

Brought back memories! My mum and dad dragged me up there in snow and ice when I was about ten.. not sure if they were oblivious to the dangers or just not arsed! 😂 actually we said at time even though had no snow gear or crampons it was possibly made easier because we were stepping in bigger footprints in the snow/ice made by someone who went up before us.. don't think I'd fancy the scree! And certainly wouldn't take my ten year old up it just yet! Well done fir filming at same time and great vid as always. Nice one 👍

[@anndenovan9026]

Oh Wow that was scary, everytime you slipped a bit my stomach turned over. I'm exhausted now.

[@twoidiotsinavan]

Absolutely cracking video mate, that fall was ace! Smooth like butter. I've tried showing people what walking up scree is like on video before but no one can capture it like you have here! Good effort pal, thoroughly enjoyed that!

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Hahaha styled out that fall mate. Yeah its tough going hiking up scree, especially with the steep gradient. Thanks for watching!

Epic adventure - I did this and then had scafell all to myself while scafell pike was mobbed out. Remember like it was yesterday!

[@paulannable3734]

I got to the top of Scafell Pike in 2006 and there was a bloke at the top who’d hauled up a grill and a bottle of gas and he was selling bacon sandwiches to the crowds!

[@forsdykemontague1017]

Another great Vid, many thanks !

[@R15-HWD]

Epic. Can’t stop thinking about doing this route now! Great video

[@jaschenski]

Really interesting to see this - 25 years ago out on a May BH trip I backpacked over Scafell Pike and meant to take the path to Wasdale Head, but missed it and ended up going up the Lord's Rake thinking that must be it (doh), went to the top where you turned L then retraced my steps and found the right path, following some climbers down who kept up conversation for a bit, or one of them did, before being coaxed in by his mate who was a lot quicker than I was. It looked like a vertical drop at the top, but just checking the map again and it looks like there is a path down from there, as well as yours! The next day I was eyeing up Great Gable but my legs were so completely shot as I'd done over 20 miles over tough peaks, I took a much easier route to Buttermere (I think, or am I confusing it with another trip). Great vids, keep them coming!

[@GoodBlokeOutdoors]

Thank you , yeah i didn’t want to go straight up so made sure to not miss the west wall traverse turning. Appreciate the comment mate!

What a great video, we loved it. Walked all over the Lake District but always avoided Lords Rake, you did an amazing job filming and getting to the top via the west wall traverse. To camp at the top in those conditions must have been amazing. Looking forward to the next one to see which route you took down, via Foxes tarn we reckon.😊
