What a lovely Sunday bonus seeing a new video from you Patrick. That has made my day!!!!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hope you enjoyed it, thought it would be welcome with the Sunday weather......thanks Pat

[@wizzynit]

I was thinking exactly the same thing

[@sylviarowley6668]

Lovely video as always. That little spot you stopped at before the climb up to your pitch site is an absolute stunning little spot! shame it was so wet for you, your outer clothes looked wet through once you had got the tent up! Hope you warmed up inside the tent. Great to see you out on the hills again. Until the next one, take care. ❤️xx

[@patrickdickinson6492]

@sylviarowley6668Thank you Sylvia yes a very wet one, as most of my Bleaklow camps are, but still an enjoyable and just so nice to be out camping whatever the weather……….thanks Pat

[@craigmorris6306]

If anybody deserves a free tent 😉 from a manufacturer it’s you pat for all the hours of enjoyment you’ve given us all 😊

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Wouldn’t take one, as feel I have to say it’s good, just thinking at moment……thanks Pat

[@AndreasNovak-Robert]

Thank you for very entertaining videos. I cannot explain why I find them so interesting because I do not like beer, whiskey nor camping. It feels as if you get to experience the adventures without having to be there yourself. I miss the videos about the culverts and the tunnels. Thanks for taking the time to produce these videos.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Andreas, its great to have you along on my adventures, and as long as I'm entertaining you thats all good.....all the best Pat

[@patrickdickinson6492]

I thought it would be welcome on this very wet January afternoon......thanks Pat

[@job9885]

@ I didn’t realise there were so many aircraft wrecks there. Are they left because it would cost too much to recover the wreckage?

[@SistaJaine]

Lovely to see you out and about again Pat.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Nice to hear from you and nice to be out wild camping in an amazing area………thanks Pat

Many thanks Chris, just lovely up there even with the rain, alot quicker comeing down......thanks Pat

[@tonypritchard828]

What a beautiful world we live in. Thanks for enduring the hardship to document this. I think the worry is a natural consequence of the wisdom of age - anticipating what could go wrong based on experience.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Tony yes as we get older we have seen how things can go so wrong, lovely spot to spend the night......thanks Pat

[@michaelblack9813]

Got into bed yesterday evening and started reading a book, then a light bulb moment occured ,ah! I'll just watch a bit of KZbin then low and behold Patrick pops up, knocked spots off my book. Another great watch. Keep up the good work Patrick.

[@EdPotter-nr3qc]

Great to see you out Patrick. I enjoy a camp whatever the weather. The weather just makes it different rather than a bad camp. See you on the next one.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Ed yes agree with you there, all camps are different and enjoyable, the weather is all part of it.......thanks Pat

[@haroldhorseposture9435]

Thanks for this, Pat. Even though it's a bleak time of year , the views from up there are, in their own way, still quite something to behold. I remember when me and our kid first started on the railway, we were learning the roads around Wath and Tinsley . It was ALWAYS grey, freezing and bleak . I therefore always associate this with Yorkshire.Don't be offended , Lancs, especially Manchester was always more grim. Fortunately, there were always welcoming 'establishmernts' in these places where one was always made welcome, despite being interlopers from across the border ! A regular was a John Smith's house close by Wath yard, where much fortification was taken onboard for the trip home, before this practice became 'verboten'. Happy daze, and I still have a ceramic ashtray from ther in my bedside accoutrements, for odds and ends.Since those days, I've learned to see the beauty of bleakness. Still, sunny, hoy blue sky stuuf is most welcome. I remember , at age 13 or 14, my Mum took me and our kid to Benidorm, where we marvelled at the mild, warm weather, and the fact that bar staff had no qualms serving beer to 'sprogs'. We were taken to a bodega up in the hills near Malage, the name of the place escapes me just now . We encountered Sherry there .I could tell more , but modesty suggests not! Thanks for the effort you have put into this vlog, as well as all your others, we appreciate it. NigeH. P.S......Are you going to Barrow Hill this year?

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Nigel and nice to hear from you, Benidorm at a young age must of been a great adventure, and a great introduction to the better things in life wether sherry or beer. Whenever I camp high up on Bleaklow the weather has the last word wether wind rain or snow it is always a challenge but feels so good after the little adventure. Should be going to Barrow Hill this year, tend to aim at a Friday as there is a 50/60's group called Rocks and Frocks that perform in the consevatory type area which my wife likes to dance to, but plenty of time for supping beer, may see you.....all the best Pat

[@juliemclean6266]

Great stuff! Fantastic little video as always. Thank you pat very enjoyable.👍🍷

[@TheLambLive]

We took a short holiday up to the Peak district last year, staying in Matlock.. We took a walk up through Derwent Dam, and what an incredible sight to behold it is to see the dam crossing the valley... Indeed, a beautiful part of the country all round. I chose this location because of your videos, I wanted to see some of that land for myself,,, it was gorgeous. Thank you so much for your channel.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yes the Upper Derwent Valley is a beautiful place, the further up you go, the less people and the wilder and more iosolated it gets, hope you get more oppertunities to explore it further......thanks Pat

Great hike-along video. Whatever type of coffee or tea you had in the morning must have been super-energizing: you were jumping down the mountain like a young bunny rabbit! And you did it down to record it, up again to fetch your camera, and then down again. Thank you, Pat.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yes Harold alot of backwards and forwards, more than a few times but fun to make and proved to myself I'm not getting old......all the best Pat

Yet another fantastic video Pat. Its great youre still getting out there! Youre an inspiration to us all! Thanks Pat.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Johnny, as I get older it means so much more to me to get out there, that will be my challenge for thse future years, as long as I can do it, then I'm OK with that......all the best Pat

[@johnnymacf1]

@patrickdickinson6492 cheers Pat. I really meant it when i said youre an inspiration. Ive lost 3 and a half stone since August last year. Ive done this because i went for a walk up Cwm Idwal with my son last year and it nearly killed me. It made me realise just how much id let myself go. I still loved the walk and the achievement of doing it and obviously having my son with me was even better, but he is 20 and fit as a fiddle so i felt like i held him back. Now im really looking forward to this summer and getting out there again. May even visit your way because it looks so beautiful, we have Wales and Snodonia on our doorstep so im looking forward to exploring! Cheers Pat.

What a cracking location and camp Pat! Good choice of whisky too 🥃 Myself and Laura weren't too far from there (Alport Moor) on Friday doing some filming during Storm Eowyn. Very windy but clear and sunny. We were saying how lucky we are to live so close to such beauty and this video just reinforces that, even given the murky weather. Looking forward to your upcoming videos. All the best, James and Laura 🍻🥃

[@gberish602]

Hi Pat, Lovely little camp, not too surprising you were on your own, and you did have 14 hours in your tent, but as you said you enjoyed it. Sometimes it's more about the peace and length of time spent just zoning out from life's time consumer's guess the majority wouldn't get it, and long may it remain that way. Cheers Graham

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Graham, yes seems along time but it just fly's by with the filming and chatting, and just love the solitude and time to myself.......thanks Pat

It has crossed my mind but alot of trial and error I would think to get it right, thinking about different tents will keep me occupied for months......all the best Pat

[@leeholt563]

I've been waiting a few days knowing this video would drop, thought to myself earlier today, Pat will definitely have it up today! Great relaxing watch this evening Pat. That looked like a great camp to start the year! A wee dram to warm you up before bed is just the trick 👍, I love that you take us with you on every camp. Regarding the tent, do the fun research, then treat yourself mate, you deserve it. Looking forward to the car camp next. All the best as always, Lee 😊

The weather’s crap, its been crap for a while, pay day can’t come soon enough…and then a ray of sunshine appears in the form of Pat Dickinson in the Peak District. Happy Days! Another great camping adventure Pat, what a great way to round off the week. If you’re looking for a bigger tunnel tent I can recommend the Nordisk Oppland 2 UL. Incredible size to weight but the price has sky rocketed (I paid 550 on sale). Or a fellow camper and good friend bought a Stoic Fasta ext 2 UL, for a fraction of the price of some of the others, but from what I’ve seen when we’ve bene out it has all the features with excellent finish and material quality.

Hi Patrick, a nice little camp in far from ideal conditions. I don't know how you have the energy to keep back tracking to retrieve your camera and do the climb as well as the decent. Keep up the good work that gives us an insight into such a beautiful part of the country.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Paul, whatever gives me great footage that’s what I,m after, knowing that I will get some easy days editing all that footage, and part of me knows it’s doing me good……all the best Pat
