Tarp and Bivy on Hedgehope the second highest hill in Northumberland
Рет қаралды 1,990
Ай бұрынI set off for an explore of some hills around Hedgehope going to the Great Standrop and Little Standrop on the way, It was a misty evening with fast disappearing views, but I woke to Glorious sunshine and magical views of the Cheviot and surrounding hills.
Cheviot is 815 m and Hedgehope 714 m

Ahh as always Adrian a delight to see you utilise the tarp n bivi, I saw your border ridge adventures and had to go! And now I'm going to have to follow your footsteps through Ingram to hedgehope, may skip the spout visit, I do enjoy it but the fore scars and litter make me rage, you can guarantee the people who do this return to their friends and encompass a great love and passion for the outdoors and all its beauty, I've witnessed it first hand😡 Anyway, I'm excited to get out there again, stratosphere and stash G2 combo! Thanks for sharing

Hi and thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it, can’t beat the fun in using a tarp with the bivy, on reflection with no rain due I should have dropped the tarp at bedtime, as it served as an evening wind break, but as you know our wind takes no prisoners and can change in a minute !!! Say no more on the spout the valley it’s self is a litter haven after a nice day, you will know the bit by the stream,I know the house keeper and game keeper and they collect nappies and all sorts !! Cheers

Last time I went up Hedgehope I walked up to Cunyan crags and over Dunmoor hill and then up Hedgehope. Bit of up and down but at least it cut the road out. Its sad how the path up to Linhope is showing the damage from Arwen. Thanks for sharing your trip Adrian.

Hi and thanks for watching, lol yes I woke up with the wind straight at me, that’s the Cheviots for you, the wind can change in minutes, will have to drop down from summits if I am going to just use the Tarp and Bivy, The day trippers have no respect just out for an hour or two and wreck it !

Spot on Adrian mate, good hike up to the summit, hedgehope is bit of a tough and boggy climb, but the views are great when it’s clear, although it’s always been windy and cold wh,en I camped there 🤣, it’s beyond me why people want to light fires on the grass and ruin it 🤬 and spoil it for others to enjoy, the wind looked like it picked up for you in the morning, nice one mate, enjoyed the video, atb Mick 👍

Hi mick and thanks for watching, yes a tough climb, views in the morning were great, Tarp and wind were not a good combination in the morning, why does our wind change sides so frequently. Cheers Adrian

My best friend was given 6 months to live on March 1st this year. He was taken to hospital against his will and we're hoping to get him into a hospice tomorrow, but I live by bedside or phone side - I can't camp at the moment. I'm not fishing for sympathy, I am much loved by friends and family but these videos truly help me. Anybody looking at me can see what I am - a broken man. I desperately need the solace of solitude but won't be able to get it until my friend dies. So I'm in a pretty bleak place right now, but your calming voice the beautiful scenery, no music have a very medicinal effect on me. Certainly worth a couple of brews, cheers!
