Helvellyn, St Sunday & Fairfield | Lake District | 4K | February 2024

Another fun day in the Lake District!
Starting from the Travellers Rest in Grasmere we ascended to Grisedale Tarn via Tongue Gill. We then headed up towards Dollywaggon Pike via the direct route before making our way to Helvellyn. Our descent towards Patterdale was via Swirral Edge which then lead to another big ascent to St Sunday Crag. We passed Cofa Pike on our way to Fairfield and then descended back to Grasmere. #trailrunningcouple

Even grey days can be inspiring when you are out on the trails. Great effort

Wonderful. Had a night out near The Traveller’s Rest, before doing Helvellyn (at a much more genteel pace) … and that was over 50 years ago 😂

That was almost mystical, in the snow, cloud and silence.

"There is no hope for this one " classic 😂 great film 💪

[lizziecooke]

The snow certainly makes Swirral Edge a different proposition from usual!

Another great vid👏👏 yep you've gotta get a dog once you've had one you'll never be without one, there's some good one's to be had from rescue centres, thats where we got our first one back in 2012, what a great dog did a full round of the Wainwrights with myself, the Mrs, & the Kid's & A lot more, he loved the fells but died three yr's ago😢if you're gonna get a dog get a good working one, it'll absolutely love what you guy's are doing👍

Great video as always guys. If you haven’t seen any of his videos, check out Bushman & Blue. Blue is his Border Collie & is amazing in the mountains. Keep up the great work

What watches do you use, please? I am tired of finding that my phone has stopped recording, halfway around a run. Thank you for the video. Some of those descents looked a bit sketchy.

[northender]

What a epic break you've had! What breed of dog are you thinking about?

[benpollock]

Incredible views! I can recommend a border collie if you are looking for a four-legged trail companion, they can mange good distances (once they are old enough), perfect for your weather conditions, they are mostly well behaved and no problems around farm or wild animals if you encounter them.

Hi can I ask what jacket you guys are using in these last few videos please ??

[alanrobinson]

You've covered more in a week than most "hikers" cover in a lifetime.

Gary, Gary, certainly mucked up your chances of appearing on Dancing on Ice now, bitterly
