This was my first wild camp since returning from Nepal. It's been a long time coming but it certainly didn't pass without being a memorable trip but for all the wrong reasons..... For those interested, here is a list of the gear used on this camp: Tent - Hilleberg Soulo Rucksack - Osprey Atmos AG65 Footwear - Merrell Moab GTX Shorts - Craghoppers Sleeping bag - Rab Ascent 900 Sleeping Pad - The...

Doing this next March, you have a new sub 🙏
Thanks mate. You’ll love it. I’m going back to Nepal in October to do the Makalu Basecamp Trek this time. Can’t wait.
Enjoying this first video! What time of year did you make this trek?
@@TrekSavvy Thanks. It was actually two years ago this week so 10th November
Home I left a long tine ago
Whats it like wildcamping in ingleton
That’s somewhere I haven’t camped so far so wouldn’t know. 😊
Brilliant video buddy
Cheers mate 😊
I love hiking take careful
Thanks for subscribing. Hope you enjoy my other videos 😊
I've camped in that cove next to the waterfall 😁
Nice one. It’s a cracking spot
What is the exact location
I honestly can’t remember. Sorry. It’s on the main route up to Everest Basecamp. Possibly somewhere around Gorak Shep
Congratulations on finishing Rob
Cheers mate 👍😊
I don't know how you do it Rob that water looks awfully cold
To be fair Norman, at this point I’d already been in once so I’d sort of got used to it. First time took a bit longer as I’m a big softy 😂😂🥶🥶
Start of every horror movie 😊
😂😊
I know hully gully, it's fair old drop there that mate. Someone got helicoptered off few years ago on same spot I think. Good there were no injuries 👍
Yeah I think I was very lucky! Not so lucky a few weeks later at Leeds bike park as I broke my collar bone 😫
Hi Rob, I was watching your videos on EBC trek and came across this equipment review. I’m off to EBC in March and am looking for a waterproof jacket. Would you recommend the Paramo one on this video for EBC? Thanks! Ed
Hi Ed, thanks for watching. If I’m right, I think March is relatively dry around Basecamp so fingers crossed you won’t need a waterproof. One thing about the paramo is it’s quite warm so if you’re walking in it you may get a sweat on. I took my Mountain Equipment Lhotse jacket but it never came out of my bag fortunately. Both the paramo and ME jackets are quite expensive if you’re not going to use it any other time. If I could recommend any for an absolute downpour where you’re going to be walking in it for hours then the Lhotse would be my go to jacket but even that will wet out eventually. Hope that helps a bit. Thanks again for watching. All the best Rob
Thanks Rob!
@@edwardmelim Happy to help
Good to see you back out Rob. The mountain weather certainty has an unpredictable climate. Glad you survived the night with a few more memories in the bank.
Cheers mate. Glad to be back out and thanks for watching. Hopefully you and me will get out for an adventure this year.
Nice video Rob 👌 pretty much the same place where i pitched up! But i went looking for some wind too keep those midges away 😅 you definitely did the right thing staying put. Get yourself some delta pegs 🫡 Nice to see you back in the lakedistrict mountains and happy adventures 😀
Ironically, I’ve got some Deltas but the forecast was for gentle breezes so left them at home. Also got some MSR cyclones but left them at home too. Lesson learned 🤦🏻♂️ Cheers for watching mate. Really appreciate it.
Great video mate that looked a bit rough through the night, good on you sticking it out. Totally agree with you on wild camping, its about enjoying yourself not how far you walk. I’ve some times hiked 8 mile to camp then other days found a better pitch 15 mins from the car. Just subbed mate ATB Paul 👍
Hi Paul. Thanks for the sub. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking the time to watch it and to comment. It’s really appreciated. 👍😊
Great video Rob but pretty scary at times!! Glad you stuck it out tho' ... what a trooper!! xx
I like a challenge 😂
Hi Rob, great film mate and good to see you are back, I was beginning to think you had gone for good. That was definitely a wild camp, glad you made it through the night and enjoyed your refreshing swim 🥶. Take care Rob, 🍻👍👍👍
Hi Chris, thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, it was great to be back out and feels like a lifetime ago since my last trip. Hopefully get a few more trips in over summer. 😊
Brilliant video 🎉
Thanks Mark. So glad you enjoyed it.
Whereabouts is the waterfall?
It’s Fort William in Scotland
@@RobsAdventures I know... How far from FW? Towards Glencoe? Towards Inverlochy? Skye?
@@daftirishmarej1827 3 miles from Fort William. The address is Old Military Rd, Fort William PH33 6SY 20 mins walk from the car park.
@@RobsAdventures Ta muchly!
@@daftirishmarej1827 You’re very welcome 😊
Love it. 👍
Wow, beautiful absolutely beautiful scenery. Such a lovely and creative presentation!
Thanks very much 😊
Nice pics of trip Rob 👍
Cheers mate 👍😊

sad what we are doing to ourselves
Beautiful scenery shot Rob 👍
Cheers Norman. Hope you’re well 👍😊
Looks amazing 😊
Thanks Alex. It really was 😊
I love it there xx
Shame you couldn’t be here xx
Looks awesome Rob be safe my friend ✌️
Cheers Norman 👍
Superb quality video, brings back great memories and I really enjoyed both parts. Going there is like a drug, you want to keep returning. Thankyou. 🙏
Thanks for watching Peter. So glad you enjoyed it. 👍😊
Glad you use natural sound. So many destroy their videos with music…let the natural environment speak for itself. Music here and there is fine but so much to appreciate without it.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the feedback. Really glad you enjoyed my video. You’re right about music. Some people definitely overdo it. Thanks again Rob 👍😊
Thanks for making these videos Rob 👏🏼 I go in April 2023 and I can’t tell you how helpful you have been 😊x
Hi Ali, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I’m so glad you enjoyed them and found them to be of some use. I’m jealous of your trip as I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I met some amazing people who will be friends for life and had the most amazing time. Certainly lived up to my expectations 😊
Did you take Diamox ?
No I didn’t need to. A couple of ladies on the trip did as they were really struggling.
Nice short compilation of your journey🥰 love your sharing of your thought which i can feel your sincerity❤️ i am going ebc mid of March 2023, kind of exciting and afraid can not make it till the base camp. Mix feeling inside now. Anyway, thank you for your sharing of your video
I’m sure you’ll have a fantastic time and make it without any problems. Good luck and thanks for watching 👍😊
Biggest question 🙋♀️ will you do it again ?? 😊
If money was no object then I definitely would but it’s a lot of money to repeat the experience. There are so many other things I want to do an a big trip to Australia is on the cards next year.😊
@@RobsAdventures good luck with the Australia trip plan !! 🙏😊
@@shree2386 Thanks 😊
We closed HULLY GULLY and extensively repaired it last November making for a much more enjoyable ride. Come and ride it again and see for yourself.
That’s awesome. I was thinking about coming tomorrow weather permitting. Cheers 👍😊
Thanks for sharing these two videos! You are right in that one should strive to accomplish what will be important in life while one can. I am in my 60s and planning to do this one in the next 36 month along with a few of the other epic hikes around the globe while I still can.
Hey Hank, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. It’s an awesome trip and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. Thanks again for watching 👍😊
What was the date of your trek?
We went out on the 10th November and came back 29th November
Oh how I'd love to see it in person!
Awesome video. I'm hopefully going with Hayley this year. Can I ask what sleeping bag you used?
Thanks and thanks for watching. That’s great to hear that you might be going with Hayley. She’s great. I used the Rab Ascent 900. Certainly warm enough and if you like to be extra toasty like me, all the rooms we stayed in had duvets so you can stick that on too as well. Strangely I think the coldest night I had was the first night when we were still low down. No idea why. After that I was sometimes sweating at night.
@@RobsAdventures brilliant thanks for that. Hayley is the best in everything that she does. Thank you for doing these videos. It has put my mind at ease about some scary cat moments in my head. Keep enjoying the adventures 😃
@@JT-nl5fk Cheers. Hope you make it out there. You certainly won’t regret it. Really was everything I’d hoped it would be.
great series Rob, How many were on your trek? can you share the cost? Cheers
Thanks. There were 12 in our group plus two leaders and three Sherpas. The cost without flights was £1800. This included all accommodation including time in Kathmandu. All meals at the tea houses included too. Look up Hayley Webb Mountain Adventures on Google or Facebook and drop her a message. She’ll be doing the trip again this year although I think it might have increased in price like everything has over the last 12 months. She’s awesome though and definitely worth the money.
it looks very busy on the trail? yes?
Not at all. There were 12 in our group plus Sherpas but for the most part of the trek we just saw the odd couple of trekkers. When we reached Basecamp, we had it to ourselves. I think if you went at the height of the season it may be crowded but we were back end of the season so much quieter, even in the tea houses.
Wow very real stuff Rob. Nice job on the video beautiful place. Be safe my friend ✌️
Hey Norman. Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. Take care mate 👍😊
welcome to nepal sir and namesta
Thanks you 😊👍
I could use the words epic, inspirational and the experience of a lifetime to describe your journey to Everest Base Camp, but i'm sure it was even so much more. I've thoroughly enjoyed both parts of this truly remarkable journey that you have all been on. I'm sure it's one that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
Hi Ian, thanks so much for watching and I’m so glad you enjoyed it. It really was such an epic trip. Everything I hoped it would be and so much more. If you get the chance you really must go. Hope you’ve had a great Christmas. All the best Rob 👍😊
absolutely fantastic Rob, I will be following your footsteps hopefully December 2023, just like you I will probably be just as emotional, so nice to feel how much you've wanted to do this, what a privilege to watch you live your dreams!!
Hey Billie, thanks so much for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. It was such an awesome experience and you will love it. Thanks again. Merry Christmas 👍😊
Well done Rob. That was an epic and emotional trip. It’s hard to imagine how tough it must be in that environment until you are there. You’ve done a great job sharing just what it is like to cope at that altitude. I’m not surprised you were emotional coping with the difficulty of the challenge and seeing some tough reminders of how things can go wrong up there. Do you think you’ll ever go back to climb Everest itself?
Thanks so much for watching mate. I would love to go back and climb Everest one day but realistically, unless I win the lottery, it’s never going to happen. Even if I did win the lottery I’m not sure Debs would be happy with me taking the risk of doing it. This was the next best thing though and I’m so pleased I got to experience it. Such a fantastic trip. Thanks again and have a great Christmas mate. 👍😊
Hi Rob, part one and part two were fantastic. I enjoyed both films equally but I’m sure you enjoyed actually being there much more. I’m sure it was a hard trek enduring the cold and altitude. Congratulations mate and well done to you, for completing the trek and the epic filming and commentary you did. Some fantastic scenery there and what an adventure you had. No matter what happens now, you completed the trek to Everest base camp and back. Brilliant film, well done, I loved it all. Thank you for filming and editing etc. As always, take care, have a great Christmas and New Year. Have some rest and I look forward to the next adventure. Cheers, Chris. 🍻🍻👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much for watching Chris. Really glad you enjoyed it. It was an awesome adventure. Just got to think of something to better it now but that will be a tough ask. Thanks again 👍😊
