Great video Damian, it brings back Fond memories of my times walking up to the old man of coniston. It's one of my fave views in the lake district. The cold wind an tired legs are sure worth it for those views. When I go bivvying I take my little Alcoa spirit stove which with the Wind shield/stand packs down into my nest of billy cans just nicely

I found a mine over here some time back, kept going down and splinting into 3 shafts. each time I took the center to keep track. About 45 minutes down, I found a river, it was cool! then about 150' down, it got hot, real hot, the deeper we went, the more we sweat. weird! Like a portal to Mordor or something

Thought this bit of information might be useful to you. In a woodland where I camp there have also been some unusual findings of sheep remains, the fleece and wool everywhere as well as some bones. At first I thought it might be poachers taking an animal, and then butchering it in the cover of the woods. Having spoken to the farmer though, he informs me that badgers have taken a few of his sheep. Foxes will take the lambs but badgers will take an adult and drag it into woods to devour. He said badgers are not to be underestimated. When you think about it, they are a large stoat or ferret, being of the same family, and look how tough they are. Hope this sheds some light on your sheep findings. Atb

I'm trawling through your vids Damian and enjoying every minute. I know the vast majority of the areas through which you wander - well, I'm from the north-east, too. Believe it or not, some of those mine workings date back to pre-Roman times. If I've got my bearings right, that hole you were looking down, at 21 mins, is Roman. By the bye, as long as you've got a decent torch, all of the mines which are not blocked off are safe to investigate - taking the usual precautions, obviously. The name 'Old Man' is, possibly, a corruption of 'old mine' or 'alta mine' - high mine, or 'maen' meaning stone in Brythonic, or whatever! Nobody knows. But, it's a great walk, especially with children - who can find something interesting at every turn. You should get 'The Little Wanderer' up there! x

Not forgetting that if they're not back at the car before sundown most would be in a total panic. We don't have that problem we just open the rucksack and get on with it...LOL

You will sweat in those plastic survival bags and get wet from condensation the next day as they aren't breathable.

Fell Wanderer I will follow your wise words and purchase an army surplus bivy. They are very reasonably priced and they're three layered gortex, so great quality and value. For someone like me who loves the great outdoors, it will give me many years of service. I know the Coniston Fells area very well. I've walked a lot over those hills through the years, it's a brilliant area. I've also explored a number of the old mine workings. There's a very extensive network of tunnels beneath those fells, though you do have to be very careful, some of the workings are in a very poor condition now. Wainwright said he counted more than a hundred openings into those hills, so they were very heavily mined. I think it was all copper mining in that area. Anyway, thanks very much for the advice.

I’ve been up a few times and I’m heading there next weekend with my daughter but my knees are knacked but I want to take her up there. This video gives a fine idea of the best peak in the bum lakes.

I like the outer fells, there seems to be less people, although Coniston is a popular place its easy to get parked unlike places such as Keswick and Ambleside.
