UNFORGETTABLE Solo Wild Camping Solitude in the Heart of Lake District

[@finbarstadt7213]

When I was 15 I wild camped by the stream to the right of the telephone kiosk. Brought back a lot of happy memories.

[@josephinebennington7247]

The peaks above the inversion looked like nunataks in Antarctica. Breathtaking.

[@AndrewBeavers]

What do you say pal...well actually..absolutely stunning!! That inversion with the drone footage was ace & a broken spectre too of the drone eh 👌 Real remote feel to that valley up there I do love that route up the eskdale valley..cam spout looking excellent & the Scafells..well 👌 superb.. stay safe pal & hopefully see thi soon.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks pal. I love that place. See thee soon bud 🙏🏻

[@squinugie2091]

That wine holder looks like a drip bag. Surely you can find a way of securing it to the roof of the tent with a syphon tube and then you can concentrate all of your energy on the sandwich and chocolate bar. Stunning video as always. I generally watch them more than once they are so entertaining.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

😆 🍷 👍. Glad you enjoyed it. ATB 👍

[@harrylinsdell8114]

Great vlog Dave and amazing cloud inversion.cheers for sharing

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Cheers Harry. Glad you enjoyed 👍

[@StevenFouracre]

Stunning views above the clouds and the views of the peaks popping through the clouds in the drone footage

[@ata1811]

Sat watching this in Portugal. Can’t wait to get home now to get back up into the Lakes!! Another crackin’ camping spot!!!!

[@JDB269]

I wish that area was that quiet on a hot summers day!

[@michaelblack9813]

Oh Dave man !.......just epic M8. Michael.👍🙏

[@lizdg3892]

What a fun playground. Great creek for a hot summer’s day.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Absolutely Liz 😎👍

[@normanc.2021]

Beautiful scenery Dave looks like your the last man on earth wide open no people 👍 Be safe my friend ✌️

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks Norman 🙏🏻

[@THvr46FC]

Hi Dave, I can't think of any better words than "absolutely stunning". You are without doubt the 21st century equivalent to Wainwright...only better! This was truly exceptional. Thank you for treating us to this quality footage for everyone who loves the Lakes. Incidentally a few years back my brother and I were crossing Great Moss - when all of a sudden we were spotted by a herd of cattle who stampeded us in a "pincer" movement. We literally had to run for our lives. It was only the farmer some distance off...on his quad bike, who called the herd away and saved the day for us. Truly terrifying!! This area is as you say jaw dropping👍

[@kennybrydges9084]

I couldn't agree more Ray.. I've watched a few on you tube who try to be like the Solo.. Dave's a different gravy for sure, I'm surprised a TV guy asnt picked him up yet! Hes that good IMO.. 👍

[@BrosBrainsBroke]

​@@kennybrydges9084 I agree with both of you..👍👍 I've watched The Solo from the start and he is top notch 😊👍👍

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Really appreciate your kind words Ray. Glad you enjoyed it. ATB 🙏🏻

[@meemeebrown26b]

I watch all your video,s Dave i don,t comment on a lot but i have to say your passion and the views you show us are spectacular, i really enjoy when you show us what you have for tea / snacks (sad i know)lol . But its all part of the experience . Atb Nigel.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Haha. Really appreciate that. Big thanks 😁👍

Fantastic Renee 🙏🏻

[@paulnwt]

The coffee's on me. Thanks for the videos. I know it must take that bit of extra effort but it's really appreciated. Yourself and Paul Messner have encouraged me to get out there for myself, after years of wanting to go wild camping. So I'm busy leaving no trace now and maybe I'll see you out there.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Really appreciate that Paul. Big thanks and good luck with trips 😎👍

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Big thanks guys. Really appreciate your kind words 🙏🏻

[@nickco777]

Having not done an over-nighter more than twenty-five years, three days ago I took my 17 year old son (his first wild camp) up the Esk River and we camped approx, 50m below where you were camped on High Gait Crags. Words cannot describe the beauty of the place. The next morning we climbed the side of Cam Spout to the summit of Scafell Pike, returning via Little Narrowcove. What a great two days out. Thanks for the inspiration, it was just what the doctor ordered.l

[@andrewbeale2585]

Dave congratulations on this vlog, Upper Eskdale is my favourite place in the Lakes, one for the connoisseur, and far from the madding crowds. I never cease to be amazed at this huge wilderness at the heart of the Lakes, and this side of the Scafell range is so much more impressive than the Wasdale side, with Esk Buttress, Mickledore, Broad Stand all looking superb.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Absolutely Andrew 🙏🏻

[@davidwillacy4796]

Absolutely pure dead brilliant Dave. Loved every second of this video. (Ps loved your kitchen table). Stay happy my man!!!

Always love watching your videos Dave but think this one has to be my favourite 😍 it's just stunning. Those views gave me goosebumps, especially the drone footage. Loved it 🥰

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

I know what you mean Val. When I was stood by the river looking up at the Scafells it just so humbling. A wave of emotion came over me but I had to just shake it off and carry on. It’s a special place 🙏🏻. Glad you enjoyed it too 😊
