Sheffield Pike (& Hart Side) / S1-Ep4 Hiking the Wainwrights

Published 2022-08-18
In this episode I dragged my pal Dina back out with me to show her the incredible views of Ullswater and around Glenridding from this little hill. The weather looked ominous and the views were shrouded for much of the walk but eventually they opened up at precisely the point in the walk that I'd hoped for.
There is a point that's a short stroll from Sheffield Pike itself that surely must be ranked up there with the world's top views!

Really enjoyed this walk - lovely to see the changing weather conditions don't hamper your enjoyment of the fells. Dina is a great addition - very funny!
-
I walked a lot of this with my Mum and Dad when I was young - you remind me of him - a giant military type man - very strong but with a gentle, kind and comic nature. I loved Dina in this I thought she was a real trooper. The views as ever are as breathtaking as anywhere. Thanks for sharing. x

I've just discovered this" Awesome " ..and "Inspirational " video at 0400hrs in the early hours of Monday morning Glenn & Dina..." You're a " Hoot " Together you both lifted my " Spirits " so " High " I poured myself a " Good Measure of " Gin & Tonic "...( " To be honest that's all I had In my humble apartment." ) I am normally a " Real Ale buff "..I live alone...." Not by choice ...may I add.." well I have my 4 legged female companion...named " Princess " who is a loyal , loving , " German Shepherd." and we are " Inseparable now." ....'Till death do us part." " Anyhow the point I am trying to make Glen & Dina is I was feeling down and out with life in general...oops I can hear the " Dawn Chorus " " Wow now that feels " Magical "in my life at present...another plus from staying up late, is to watch this awesome video you both made.... I could " Reminisce and" smell the " Ferns and " Bracken " from my teens days in " Coniston" where I and my then cousin Larry were working on a New housing estate in the village,....".His Dad was a " Bricklayer " ..." My uncle Colin " ...and we laboured on him, carrying bricks and "gobbo "up a ladder with a " Hod " ...and onto a " board on the "staging platform " " And our reward for carrying out that " Arduous " task was a " Halfpenny " for every brick we carried in the Hod and placed onto a " Board" situ' on a " Platform."It was hard work keeping up because another bricklayer showed up.( " Don. ").." Sorry I have just poured another "Stiff measure " to be going on with,....and I just love your interactions and camaraderie ship you both excel in." Stick together as a unit...it makes for good viewing and I will sponsor you both and become a "Patreon for life."..Kind Regards ,"...Robert.x

The βWaffleβ is great. Fantastic videos ππ»

There's always a little extra pep in your step Glenn, when delightful Dina is with you! Looking forward to the heather blossoming on the West Moors and Bodmin Moor soon. The damp weather should make those colours really pop! Another crackin' video, with those sumptuous views! ππ
-
Nice video Glenn and itβs great to see you and your bint making each other smile. Thanks
-
Welldone you guys , such a pleasure to watch, love you new series, your both amazing, you should be so proud of yourselves, Thankyou
-
So scenic. π Keep bringing these videos. Yaa you talk a lot too. π

Another great vid, really enjoying the series thank you. My wife and I did this the same way, plus Stybarrow that we'd missed on another walk. It's nice to see the walks as you've done a few the way we did them. Unfortunately the last of my cartilage in my left knee decided to give up coming down Dovedale from Rydal Head, taking us 3 hours to do the last 2 miles. So walking flat or going up is ok, but coming down becomes a problem after a time. So its risky for me to try very high tops now. We're watching the series together and it's like it's looking back at our walks. After watching the series we didn't realise how much we missed as we talk that much when out walking π Thanks again for sharing.
