SCAFELL PIKE Solo Summit Camp - surviving a freezing night alone on England’s highest mountain

[@Thebluedocful]

You know more than most of us and you still say “.. if you’ve got any advice for me..” humility is my favourite human characteristic 👏🗻

[@unclepeteswildadventures]

Well said about those who say ‘it’s only the Lake District!!’ Words can’t describe how good this video is!!!

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks UP. Means a lot 🙏🏻

[@malgreenley-lakedistrictvi5230]

Excellent video! Having England's highest peak to yourself is an added bonus.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Absolutely Mal 🙏🏻

[@joinmeoutdoors]

Bloody hell Dave, that was an absolute masterpiece! The conditions in the morning were everything we hope for on these outings. I loved the shots on the summit in the morning! We are so fortunate to be around in this era where the technology is light and compact enough for us to capture moments like these. Cracking job 👏👏👏 ATB, James.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Much appreciated James. Thank you 🙏🏻

Big thanks Marc. It’s a beautiful place indeed 🙏🏻

[@davidpilsworth1254]

Another great video Dave. Thanks from Dave

[@pennydavies6253]

Brilliant! Thank you! Stunning with the snowfall. The sky was spectacular. That’s what I love about the Lakes, no light pollution and stunning night sky. I’m out every night I’m there as it’s incredible. Hope you stayed toastie warm! Look forward to your next video. 🙏🏻

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Thank you Penny 🙏🏻

[@lostintransit5822]

You are truly in your element up there and it shows on your face. Stunning camp! Thanks for taking us along, your effort is very much appreciated❤ You should add a link where we could donate you a coffee or pint as a thankyou 👍

[@neilt7191]

Another cracking example of what its all about Dave . There's some new kids on the block when it comes to making quality videos on wildcamping and spending time in the hills , and you sir are definitely one of them . Keep doing what you're doing Dave . Neil .

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks Neil 🙏🏻

[@jamieb741]

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

That’s brilliant Kev. ATB 😎👍

Just awesome Dave. Your favourite mountain all to yourself! Many thanks.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Many thanks Neil. Heaven 🙏🏻

[@patrickruane1544]

I have a similar pillow for home and it is designed for side sleepers. You rotate it so the bump goes in the crook of your neck. It’s a game changer great camp as always. Thanks 🙏

[@johnmacdonald6345]

Well !! What can I say Dave. This has to be one of the best videos ever. My partner Jill and I admire your determination. Some of that footage shows Antarctic conditions. True entertainment. One request though, please tell us day and date during your introduction as it's good to put a timeline to your adventures. Thanks Dave. Kind regards John and Jill.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks guys. Really appreciate that 🙏🏻

[@davidpowley7721]

What a beautiful summit dawn!

[@ohsosmooth01]

Less than 1000 metres above sea level and still feels like youre on top of the world 🤙

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Absolutely 🙏🏻

[@jonjohnson2844]

Sat watching in my dining room with the heating on full blast and I'm still shivering, I wish I had the balls for a proper winter camp!

Unforgettable for you and unforgettable for me. Unbeatable views, all to yourself. Watching you lapping it all up left me buzzing. I hope you get to do it all again and again.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Really appreciate that 🙏🏻

[@dementiaresearchershorts]

I love the way you talk about the mountains and the Lake District. It’s my favourite place in the U.K. and I love walking in the fells. Keep up the great work, the way you shoot and stitch your videos together is perfect. Onwards and upwards mate!

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks DW. Much appreciated 🙏🏻. ATB

Brilliant dave .. love a mountain camp with the solo summiteer

[@summerb917]

Fantastic video👌 what a brilliant camp ⛺️

[@mojorisen1295]

Just amazing that your country has no trees, which would offer you a little cover from them winds you are always finding! I camp out at tree line in my winter trips at 10,250! nothing like camping in the winter months! Love your crushing winter trips in the freeze of England!

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it and best wishes 🙏🏻

[@paulmcnee2429]

I really appreciate the trouble you’ve taken to get to places and photograph and video some outstanding landscapes . Many very vivid reminders of places visited in younger days but alas can only watch on KZbin while caring for my partner with Alzheimer’s.. You may well have many cares in your audience enjoying the images you bring to their homes.Well done and thanks .

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks for your comments Paul. Really appreciated. Take care - Dave 🙏🏻

[@damianhill6704]

Loved the first pumping at the summit the next morning. You can't buy that feeling. Although I think I'd of taken a nice cup of tea with me.,....

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks Steve. Glad you enjoyed it 👍😎

[@LondonVisited]

@@TheSoloSummiteer Amazing video Dave and as always looking forward to your next one!

[@ThePad549]

That’s was wonderful to watch; your punch into the air as you stood on the summit was magical and in every way summed up how you felt. Thank you for this and all your hard work in editing your footage.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Thank you so much! Really appreciate that 🙏🏻

[@jimgold9729]

Watching from Sunny Adelaide in Australia. Loved your video…I miss the Lakes immensely. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe!

What an awesome adventure Dave, and some testing conditions for you and your kit, glad you got back safely.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@r13gbs]

Nice to see a genuine vid rather than the Tubers that just want to go out in sponsered gear for the clickbait

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Much appreciated 👍

[@carcher1380]

Thanks. I really enjoyed that 👍🏻

[@stonechat8123]

I don't know how you do it! must be the adventure, challenge and utter love of the mountains and wild camping-Yep I think that's it!

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Absolutely 😎🏔️⛺️🙏🏻

[@Your____beatsS]

Climbed scafell pike yesterday and the sun was beaming down on me

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Nice one👍. A bit different to the conditions in the video eh 😁

[@sam.midford]

Another great video 😊👍 the opening shots are epic. I had to get a hot water bottle and blanket for this one 🥶... Definitely parky outside!

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Cheers Sam. Haha. Very 🥶👍

[@Northern_Rockhopper]

Jesus mate, that is some serious graft, not only hiking up to the top of Englands highest mountain with all that camping gear on your back, but with the icy conditions as well, well done man. Well deserved beer after that trip for sure. Amazing video as always. so inspiring to make me get out and camp. This’ll be one camp you’ll never forget, there’s not many people can say they’ve had Scafell Pike all to themselves. Thanks for sharing mate. Look forward to the next one.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Much appreciated Rick 🙏🏻

[@davidnorman7715]

Superb Dave,my favourite mountain range aswell.

[@simonevans876]

The mountain equipment lightline is brilliant. I've had the same jacket for about 2 years, never let me down. Super light and keeps you toasty! Great video as always Dave, what a camp! 🏔👍

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Couldn't agree more Simon. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍

[@DJVOutdoors]

The pillow looks very good, comfortable!

[@Outdoorshuntingshooting]

I have done that path many times, I think the tourist path was originally a pack trail for moving goods over the mountains. My fave route in the lakes up that path past angle tarn and on to sca fell pike.

[@markkennedy1022]

Awesome adventure … thanks so much for sharing.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Much appreciated Mark. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏🏻

[@michaeljames8534]

Sunday night viewing has not been this good since I was a kid, fabulous camp Dave. As always the edit was first class, capturing every element and highlighting the constant dangers. I unfortunately once had a heart attack coming down Skiddaw in fine weather, so fully understand your principles of respecting those wonderful mountains in any condition 👊🏔👍

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Bloody hell Michael. Hope you’re ok. Take care and ATB 🙏🏻

[@malcolminstone4213]

Just watched a very happy bloke up a mountain. Brilliant stuff Dave the film quality is brilliant and those sunrise scenes were scrumptious. Don't stop and ta❤️ PS Getting under my duvet now!

Oh, you can just open the first valve on your pillow instead of the big valve when pumping air in. Also can adjust the stiffness of your pillow by pressing the little valve inside of the smaller cover (first valve). Awesome video!

Thank you. Yes I’ve realised that now 👍

Great video ,that view from the summit with the sun coming up was breathtaking to watch . You certainly know your stuff. Liked and subscribed 👍

[@michaelblack9813]

Well done on completing quite a few of your personal challenges which you have set yourself in some really testing conditions in the bombproof Allak2. I can see why the Scafells are your favourite summits and when you factor in the peace and solitude you can really appreciate that deep spiritual connection with the mountain and the environment which you are experiencing first hand. Another 'cracker' Dave. Stay safe and look after yourself M8. Michael.😊👊🥾⛺️🗻🙏
