Cheers Liam , hope you’re good mate 👍

It was quite a camp that one … took us nearly 3 hours to get down 2.5 miles … exhausting trip but well worth it Steve . Cheers 👍

Yep not one . lol ,😂

I use a thermorest xterms rearing 7.3 Western mountaineering terra light -4 bag with an enlightened equipment quilt on top -6 rating hope that helps. Cheers

Cheers. Thanks. It was a great experience

All real no AI . Raw

Small mistakes can lead to huge problems, you’re right . Cheers

It’s very memorable isn’t it, most people never experience such violence of the weather, Scary but somehow awesome.

It was awesome… on the edge of

Like the tea light idea , this hilleberg tent is very waterproof, no problems so far cheers.👍

@twiggyescapes they could save someones life. Not only that it makes making coffee in the tent practical...no stove needed. I wake up and the coffee water is already warm.

@twiggyescapes you can get nine hour tea lights but nine for $2.50. A little more expensive but better for sleeping.

U would have struggled to get them in on this camp worked, the ground was frozen solid, cheers for tips 👍

@twiggyescapes I have a three pound hammer. It was rediculous trying to drive those pegs they sell into the ice...so.

The wind was non existent when we pitched up ,wind direction on weather forecast was from the north ended up from west, cheers for watching ATB

Yes glad to be here still . Cheers for your comment 🙂

That’s awesome, any tips well appreciated, you’re obviously skilled. Cheers for watching the amateurs at work… it was epic 👍

In really deep snow I found snowshoes to be a life threatening device. I would recommend cross country skis with cleats. Boots are no good for deep snow unless they're taped so snow can't get in them.😊...

Boots on this camp worked, the spikes kept falling off, skis may have been better on flatter ground but this terrain was so undulating and steep ,cheers for watching 👍

I will do this… top man

And tealite candles...a hundred for seven dollars...can save you from frost bite.😊

Cheers.thanks for watching 👍

Yep. Fun though. Cheers 🙂👍

Hi Sarah , this was storm Bert a couple of weeks back, it really caught us off guard a bit we knew it was on the way but it’s ferocity was scary. Luckily we had each other and made decisions together, it would have been a very different camp alone. Hope you’re good Sarah nice to hear from you,hope you and your family have a great Xmas 🎄🙂👍

@ I hope you’re feeling a little better! Unable to get out for a camp recently due to work and life commitments but when I can it will be the best therapy for sure. I’m knackered! Take care matey, Sarah

Breezy yes . Fun definitely. Cheers 🙂

Hi Frederick, yes it was living on the edge especially trying to get down to safety, the unna I had 9mm and basic poles, we underestimated the ferocity of that storm, I have heard that 10 mm makes a big difference, so if I take it out in this kind of weather again I’ll be taking those … I’ve since acquired a jannu which I’ll be testing too . Cheers for watching and your advice. ATB.👍

@twiggyescapes I think to be honest double guying adds more stability than 10 mm poles. I use 2 mm Lawson GlowWire cord and attach the extra guys to the already existing loops at right angles to the standard guys. It seems rock solid then. I just love having the extra space in the Unna. Hope you are feeling well again. Take care.

Yes … this also was storm Bert , I think the Peak District was hit really hard that night, lots of errors were made , we had to have a fun camp so we decided to drink , it definitely helped us in the moment lol . Think there’s lessons to be learned on any camp , this one I would have taken thicker poles and extra guys. Hand warmers are very underrated.. they can save frostbite for many hours .. cheers watching Dave it was one to remember . Cheers 👍

The temp was hovering around-1 so not that cold, when the blizzard hit it got much colder, but at that point I had hand warmers and mittens… thanks for your comment u sound like you’re pretty experienced ATB👍

Depends how you think i suppose.

Cheers Dave , wouldn’t have gone up there if we didn’t know the route,we had all the gear and made good decisions on the day, would not go up there alone in that weather . Cheers for your comment. It was so memorable.

It looks like a fool’s adventure but we had everything planned, we knew we could have waited it out,the forecast was changing later,we had all the gear, knew the route, hard work but so worth it,all will be good , cheers Alan

So are we , glad we filmed it it wasn’t easy but so good now to have the record. Cheers

It was all real… savage weather tested us proper. Cheers

Cheers for your advice, will take it on board, shelter from the rocks wouldn’t have worked , the pitch was too uneven and the winds kept changing directions ATB . Cheers 👍

I’d take the soulo or the jannu which I now have , I took the unna because of space it provided me for a winter camp. I would have taken better spikes, other than that the descent down would have tested any gear .cheers.

@@twiggyescapes and face away from the wind?

Yes you’re definitely right, never do a trip like that alone,we made a lot of decisions together to get us out of there safely… it would have been extremely hard solo. Cheers for your comment John . Cheers.

Thanks,yes his channel is called trickofthetrail ,if u can’t find I’ll send the link . Cheers 👍

@ Thanks. Found it. Also a great watch. Right on the edge. Glad you both got down safely

Thanks David … will do. Getting a bit old for this drama .. it was ace though 👍

Cheers Nobby we surely were idiots….people just love a good suffering festival , cheers 👍

WHY !

Thanks,mark got all the footage on the way back …his tent really surprised me . Cheers 👍

Yes it really was , glad to be warm again, cheers for your reply 🙂
