[mountainmadness100]

would be a great advert for pot noodle. na just joking great vid defo worth geting up early for

[BBCQuestionofSport]

brilliant video, and its good to know im not the only pot noodle eater.

[chris25119600]

Just decided to watch this again, after wild camping up Skiddaw recently, ...a few words come into mind ...YOU JAMMY GIT, so was you up there all day ? what about Mrs Bnd ? or was she out with her girlies on new years eve...

Stunning that Terry, i have watched this a few times now, and still amazed everythime

[jizzspraya]

Nice vid, truely inspeyering. Used to have this bloke at work who wouldn't shut up about the lakes. Every day, 'Wainwright this, fucking haystacks that'. In the end, he had a spaz fit in the car park and brayed me Polio with his miserable cunt head. Off work ever since. Nice vid though, thanks for sharing.

[terrybnd]

@bholesurfer Thank you. And I agree - it seems fashionable over the past couple of years for folk to look inwards and see what the UK has to offer.

[Avalon041167]

This has got to be one of the best video cloud inversions ever. This clip is worthy of an award. I love watching it. So enchanting and atmosperic. I love the lake district; its truly amazing

[terrybnd]

@Avalon041167 LOL Thanks. You're too kind

[mackerel47]

The thing that impresses me most about the lake District is the way in which everything seems to be so perfectly proportioned-the hills and mountains all complement each other and fit in so perfectly with the surroundings

These contrasted with the wonderful lakes and tarns make this region one of incomparable beauty-there is nowhere else like it in the entire world. I'm so grateful to be able to live so close to this paradise.

[bushmanuk100]

what an awesome site best views iv seen of lake district / whats the video music it goes well with the vid

[terrybnd]

@bushmanuk100 Thanks. Music was some stuff I knocked together on Acid Pro

[Acepilot2010]

Stunning. I'd loose a limb to see Skiddaw like that although 4 in the morning might be a bit extreme for me. Top video

[stevengarrett67]

breath taking view, wish i been their that day.

[stevengarrett67]

breath takimg view, wish i been their that day.

[TheeReturn]

Like another world if you catch the clouds right!

[Mealwormsforrobins]

Thank you - a beautiful film and so well made - love the music.

We had our first climb up Skiddaw in the snow in March 2009 and it was beautiful - but we weren't adventurous enough to catch the sunrise. I look foreward to looking at your website.

All the best!

[GBPaddling]

Superb stuff,believe it or not,I had a similar day on the summit of Great Orme,could see the Great Orme and Little Orme floating in the mist.Brilliant video,good music,but not so sure about the Pot Noodle ha ha! rather you than me with that one!

[Broomehall]

Wow, just wow....................has to be a life affirming moment that, there is something about being up in the mountains that non climbers and walkers simply dont understand, and i dont mean that in a patronising way, i would like to share my times up in the mountains with everyone, especially moments like this, sublime my friend, just sublime.................

[experimentalists]

Probley the best lakes video i seen. Be heading up there soon..

[sykescottages]

IT looks like the boat is floating on clouds, what strange lake conditions.

[kastakan]

Hi Terry, I'm in the process of watching your videos from the start of the series and this I feel is the best one yet. You captured some really special moments in this one. Great work!

[sam077088]

absolutely beautiful! the clouds just look like snow, a totally amazing video! ;o)

[youforgotyourname]

Best video you have done terry i love it.

[ALGERNONSENCE]

Fella, you make some truly stirring stuff. Fair play to you ''Check it out'' indeed my man......

[ptb1980]

wow amazing scenes! is there a way to know that there is likely to be a cloud inversion like that or is it just luck!?

[LukeDawson1996]

i've been up there it's breathtaking and quite literllay is, no it isnt. i went 4 years ago i was only 9 but i understood the beauty of this.

[LukeDawson1996]

i have been up there, its breathtaking i went with my dad, what a day!

[onlywhenpissed]

"check it aaaaat. Absolutely stunnin". You ain't wrong there Terry. We were up top yesterday but it didn't look much like in your video because the cloud came in and ten seconds later it was a pea souper. Awesome to be so high though. I bet this video is inspiration to loads of people and rightly so.

[ytrogergt]

Sexy silhouette at 1:21

[PopHorizonScanner]

Beautiful! I can imagine that this winter morning atop Skiddaw will never be forgotten. Thank you!

[arfurlife]

Totally brilliant bit of film. Loved every minute of it. Obviously a guy who loves his countryside. Simply stunning and uplifting. Keep em coming lad!

[onlywhenpissed]

Nice video, took some effort obviously. Nice editing to add the effects. Me and my girlfriend spent the entire night on Skiddaw only last night on one of the best Winter nights of 2010 so far. We reached the summit at dusk and stayed till 7am and found it one of the best places on earth.

[pneurotic]

Truely stunning video which totally encapsulates why I love the Lakes as much as I do. Best of luck with the website, I'll definately bookmark you when it's up and running.

[flashdj1974]

Terry sorry i feel like ive been rude i wasnt questioning you just wondered why no trig point, can i ask which way you climbed ? lastest time i went was by latterig was crazy lol

[terrybnd]

Now worries. I was staying in Keswick so took the route from there to Latrigg and then the old pony track up to top.

[flashdj1974]

i know terry can get busy in the lakes i did scaffel pike same again cloudy bad weather 1 guy at the top to great me then every man and his dog apeared well minus dog love the video though would love my boy to see that in real life lakes weather is crazy doesnt matter what the met says it can change so fast

[flashdj1974]

mmm where was the trig point on skiddaw all i saw was little man ?

[terrybnd]

@flashdj1974 Hi thanks for the complements. Skiddaw summit? I didn't actually film it on the day as there were too many folk about so I made my way elsewhere for a bit of piece and quiet

[flashdj1974]

Terry amazing video tried to do skiddaw today with my boy second time out,

and i was thinking after reading the weather forecast for this weekend its looking good, i was looking for your inverted clouds ....nope we got a blizzard, your one lucky guy weather here is so unpredictable happy christmas + new year

[muktika54]

I'd like to be there with my close friend!

[latoalex]

great stuff.

[northlakes34]

fantastic vid mate what an experience !

[magicplant]

Mate that is outstanding. Its my dream to get up there for an inversion like this.

[experimentalists]

best lakes video by far. I love the view from Skiddaw.

[baggyboo]

nice vid,i used to go up there and i get full view of the place from my sitting room window,unfortunatly i cant go up now as my back wont let me

[SpeciAngler]

What a way to see the New Year in, great videos and music. Excellent.

[bcoy1para]

not bad walk , can complete this in under an hour up and down from latrigg.

[willgrove]

Hey, I'm guessing you had to do some walking in the dark to reach the summit at sunrise. How long before sunrise did you leave to reach there at that time? and how is the walk fairly straight forward?

Thanks

[terrybnd]

The route I selected was fairly straight forward. I set off at 3am and reached the top with an hour before sunrise which was about 7am.

[thejollyro]

thats amazing, i normally stay on a farm near mungrisdale, its amazing but this has to be the best ive ever seen, theres a tea shop in keswick you can see skiddaw out the window :)

also, Pot noodle breakfast! (best flavour too)

[terrybnd]

Thank you. And yes, you're right...best flavour of Pot Noodle!

[grzechu1987]

Breathtaking landscape!

Being in such beautiful place is worther than anything on this world.

I wish I was there.

[cowsgomoouk]

absolutely beautiful

[4k3el]

i want to go on sunday ! is it good time its going to be 21 degrees.

are people allowed to fish in the lakes? and take the fish home?

[terrybnd]

Fishing? You'll have to look into that one. Genreally no without permission. Some tarns and lakes etc have extremely rare species of fish such as arctic char.

[djTiPS08]

i was there about a month ago

i was at keswick

it was brilliant

will def go there again

[ddjandy]

Great!

[billybadbrakes]

Brill video. I really need to get up earlier and catch some of that excellent light! Would help if I had a decent camera too tho ha ha! Well done!!

[jsa2001]

Been all over the lakes, you picked a great day and the right time of day. Very early morings and very late evenings,the best times as the light is very dramatic then. I would have worn the shutter out on my camera if i was there. Thanks for the footage, must get back up there myself.

[terrybnd]

Couldn't agree more!

[terrybnd]

Thanks for the kind comments and thoughts everyone! I really was a lucky beggar that day!

[terrybnd]

Yes, it is.

[lee65800]

fantastic video!

[GrundleflyDOTcom]

Awesome stuff ... time consuming no doubt getting all of those video views on a solo trip ... really well done.

[cuotos]

was up skiddaw today and it was deffinately not as nice as in ur video. very high winds and zero vis. will need to go back on a nice day

[Hex33sp]

Very nice video Terry. What did you use to shoot it?

[terrybnd]

I use a Canon HV20

[sidewaysid]

Been there a few times but never so early. the lakes are great...it makes you feel alive...I have done 55 Wainwright but still need to return, I love the place..nice film mate

[ROBBIEG200777]

Terry, This is an absolute stunner! Brilliant work! im sold! all the best G.

[terrybnd]

Thank you. You're very kind

[Powlouk]

Awesome video!!!! makes me want to set off to the lakes summits now, there is no better feeling than completing a walk especially with the views you had this day the memories stay with you forever.

[dartmoorboxing]

Great video , the low cloud filled valleys make the trip well worth going up to the summit, I wish i had gone to the summit that day .I walked up there last year with my collie Jake and the views on a clear day are awesome . I love the Lake District so unique and so very special.

[gavlee77]

ahhhh...the green green grass of home

[glove159]

You really do not realise how beatiful england is, until you get outdoors and explore..awsome video!!!!

[terrybnd]

Thank you! Very kind and so true!

[terrybnd]

Thank you very much for your and everyone elses kind compliments!

I'm very hummbled!

[terrybnd]

Thank you for your kind compliments!

[door2yourheart]

Fabtabulous vid, amazing cloud inversion! Looks like an archipelago and islands somewhere very remote. At 3.50ish looks like waves breaking on a rocky shore! Well done for making the effort, well worth it!

[Ofarim]

Whow, great. What a landscape. And what a great music. Fantastic!

[motty07]

So pleased you said that. I ordered one today (HV30) and now can't wait for it to arrive.

Would you mind if we embed this video on our site visit north west? I think its the best video of NW England I've ever seen.

My contact details can be found in the About Us section.

Thanks

David

[motty07]

Nice video. What camera are you using? HV30?

[terrybnd]

HV20....close!!

[laketunes]

Amazing video above the clouds!

[eioncartledge]

Absolutely stunning mate!! You could almost reach out and touch the candyfloss cloud. There's even a pot noodle advert in there - The slag of all snacks meets the slag of all views;)

[dudgeoh]

Those clouds rolling like lake waters... awesome!
