Great thanks. Am reading Richard Askwith’s feet in the clouds, and this helps to visualise it. Billy Bland must be some sort of superman

I've just found this video and it is very useful :) Great for skylines and route memorising. Many thanks for taking the time to produce it and upload.

First of all congratulations on a visually-stunning presentation. Ignoring minor squiggles, here are the major "shortcuts" (or rather better routes taken at the moment). 1. Go much more directly on the final climb to High Raise (or taking Sergeant Man first leads to a comparable saving over your route). 2. Don't go via the flagstones and Stake Pass col. Cut across the Martcrag bogs, cross Stake Beck below the drumlins and use the now quite well-developed little path that slants, then snakes to Rossett Crag. 3. The Climbers Traverse is a roundabout way to Bowfell summit. Bob Grahamers use a line of tiny cairns that slant upwards beneath the southern Hanging Knotts area. 4. Broad Stand or West Wall Traverse are much faster ways up Scafell (though Foxes Tarn is safest). 5. Off Scafell, yes, you take the route indicated but when the rockfields end, you can cut across marshy ground to the edge overlooking Lingmell Beck and use a scree run to zip down a steep section - then slant down through scrubby fields rather than joining the lower-down path by the beck. 6. Don't go over Stirrup Crag. Drop off sharply at the little col before it then traverse to Dore Head. After that, there are minor savings on how you drop down to Honister and Littledale Reservoir - but the above list outlines the "big six". But to repeat, this is an ingenious and very worthwhile presentation-idea.

Thanks for this. Brilliant fly-through. What an amazing place. Trying half of this round (peaks 18-37 then back to ODG) in the next few weeks. Then I’ll think about the full one depending on how doing half goes!

Welcome Steve B!

Thank you. Although I’ve run some sections. Walked some others. This, at 65, is the closest I’ll ever get to circumnavigating the BGR…
-
Very nice, thanks 💪😃

Wow

Great video 👌. Has anyone walked this? If so did you camp out, and how long did it take ?

A nice overview but don''t stick to the routes indicated by the line. You can save about an hour using better routes.
