i know what its like climbing with hardly any sleep, i did the 3 UK peaks challeng, 25 years ago. Snowdon wasnt a bother, but i started to feel it after driving up (i wasnt driving thankfully and none of the other climbers were), then Ska Fell Pike was a bit of a slog and then Nevis, that id never done before, was a massive uphill challenge, yes, deliberate pun, this over 3 days. man, i needed my own bed after that, thankfully we had rented a cabin. the drivers were along for the party, well they were there for a emergency, being serious, as we had a inexperinced couple with us.

Super one, as always, Dave, and the chilled, shorter route videos are just as enjoyable as the epics as it's all part of the experience in the mountains. I had to laugh though - it's an easy one, he says, as he charges through Grasmere at warp speed and then puffs uphill like a steam train! I love that ridge between Silver Howe and Blea Rigg, with the views to the Langdales, so I recognised your pitch and remember it well. It's a super ridge to bimble along and just relax and explore all the nooks and crannies. Last time I was there, it was roasting hot I remember. Super sounds of spring to hear the Skylark and see the frogs spawn. Another sign of spring I love is the first Wheatear arriving back (or White Arse as it's also known, for good reason!). Congrats on the 100th camp - well deserved and don't do yourself down. You have indeed gained a great deal of experience in a short time, which is great. Quick question - what are the down booties you're wearing with your down pants in the camp? Are they Rab too?
