A selection of light-hearted clips from a trip to the Lakes in November 2008. We pitched our tent on Lingmel Col and then headed for Scafell Pike for sunrise. All worked out nicely except for getting the car stranded whilst returning home via an icy Wrynose Pass.

A sincere thanks to the guys at Seathwaite Lodge who put us up for the night and the farmer at Cockley Beck who gritted the road to aid our escape the following day.

  • great vid lads , some fantastic views with some laughs thrown in for good measure ,

    i realy enjoyed watching that ;dD

  • Cheers clunk. Glad you liked it.

  • We didn't exactly 'park' there as such. We were forced to leave the car there over night when we hit black ice on the way over the pass. What you see there is the following morning after a local farmer gritted for us over night.

  • Great video! Spectacular sunrise that day. Looked freezing up there. What tent you guys using or recommend?

  • Hi John,

    It was pretty stunning up there but it all feels like ages ago now. I'm using the Big Agnes Seedhouse SL2 - really strong and really light for two.

  • You silly chumps! Glad you made it up and then back down the hill...eventually!

see all
