River Spey Canoe & Wild Camp Part 2
Finally I have finished editing our second part of the River Spey, Scotland, trip we did last summer. This part involves the unpleasant experience of capsizing!! Thankfully we were okay but Fred's camera didn't survive!

River Spey, Scotland: Canoeing & Wild Camping Part 1
มุมมอง 1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
A four-day and three-night adventure riding the rapids of our local River Spey with our dog Apache. Gorgeous weather in July 2021 which meant hardly any bugs at all. Follow us on our journey and experience the highs and lows along with us.

20km Hike Around Culbin Forest, Scotland
มุมมอง 1943 ปีที่แล้ว
A hike around Culbin Forest which lies on the northeast coast of Scotland between Findhorn Bay and Nairn. Parts of the forest are classified as SSSIs (Sites of Special Scientific Interest) due to the diversity of flora and fauna. It is a special place which also hides war remnants and a buried villages. In this video, my friend Claire and I spend a very sunny day visiting some of its highlights...

Part 2 of our canoe trip on the Teslin and Yukon rivers. This part is a massive improvement on part 1 as I used a better video editor. During this episode, we stumble upon remains of cabins, mining equipment and finally enter the Yukon River stopping at Hootalinqua for camp 5.

Canoeing the Yukon 2019 Pt1
มุมมอง 2333 ปีที่แล้ว
A 500 mile canoe trip from Johnson's Crossing to Dawson City, Yukon Territory, Canada. We started on the Teslin River and then continued on the Yukon. There has been a continuing saga trying to get this video done, from annoying portrait format to our dog eating an SD card. I may even add more footage but at least this is a start!
Loch Maree Camp 2020
มุมมอง 3173 ปีที่แล้ว
We were lucky to have a window of time between restrictions to have a wee adventure at Loch Maree. It is a beautiful Loch steeped in history and adorned with ancient Scots pine. This was the first time the weather had been kind to us. It can be an unforgiving and gloomy environment. Filmed with my Huawei P30 which is really lost on me. I don't have the skills of my partner but just wanted to cr...

Second part of first ever wild camp. Apache and I settle down for the night but there is not that much rest to be had!
First Solo Wild Camp Pt1
มุมมอง 8K3 ปีที่แล้ว
My first solo wild camp in Roseisle Forest, Moray, Scotland. My dog, Apache's, first ever time in a tent but he did well 🙌
Such a great video but your husband seems a bit of a grump lol, hoping for some more soon
Go Kelly! 👊👊
What a nasty tree... I know that feeling too well... you think it's all under control and very quickly it's not... happens soo quickly! Good experience though and good footage !
Cheers Eze! I am enjoying watching your Algonquin adventure 👌
@@kfadventures7205 Glad you like it, was an awesome one and really grateful to Fred for introducing me to this wilderness - already dreaming about the next adventure!
I just did the West Highland Way Scotland is a great country to wild camp in.
Morning
looks very fun thanks for sharing.
I am looking at getting one of these hammocks, I hope I can be as adventurous as you!
Hi Kelly - great solo adventure. I’ve just got a Ticket To The Moon original pro as I wanted a lighter set up than the Haven for backpacking. Currently testing it out in the back garden. Set up was in the dark last night and it went ok. Tweaked it today in daylight for my second night under the stars. The forecast is for another fine night so have not set up my tarp . I looked at the Haven but I decided it was more weight than I wanted right now. Might splash out on a Haven in the future though! Super impressed by the location you camped in - I’m curious, how many miles did you cycle to get there?
Will have to look into your TTTM. I like the idea of something lighter. Hope you get out adventuring soon. It was a 6 mile/10km cycle to the camp spot so really handy.
Nicely filmed - apache looked really at home out there 👋
Thanks! He had a really great time minus the impromptu swim! 😬
The stove you have is an electric start , press the tab at the bottom and it will click and light the gas .
Cheers for that! 👏👏👏
Thank you for the video, I loved it! I just bought myself a Haven hammock tent. I've set it up once but haven't got to camp yet. Such a beautiful place by the ocean that you picked 💖
Thank you! Hope you have lots of adventures with your hammock 🙌
@@kfadventures7205 I used to 'bike pack' myself and loved seeing another woman bike pack. The Haven tent hammock was the icing on the camp cake 🤣 ⛺⛺⛺
How much did it cost you all in with import taxes?
Hello, I am thinking of buying the haven tent, it is a very tempting hammock. My question is: Is it easy to pick it up? How long does it take you to do it? A greeting from Spain.
Hiya! 👋Once you know what you are doing, it only takes about 10 - 15 minutes 😊
Just spotted this video, loved it. Really shows off the best parts of Scotland. Although I bet you showed that ant hill close up just for me!! 😱
Great video, the Spey looks gorgeous
Great video! Are you still enjoying the Haven? Any further thoughts on it overall? I mainly sleep in hammocks here on the West coast of Scotland as the ground is too wet for a tent for much of the year. I like the idea of the Haven. Unfortunately its really expensive compared to other hammock options at ±£270.00 with UK import/VAT. For that kind of money it would need to be pretty amazing in terms of sleep quality and build quality. I'm not saying its not worth it, I'm just saying I don't know if it is. Thanks again for the great video, looked like a great trip. :-)
Looks great. Love my Haven... prefer my bikes with an engine 😬😀
Wow! Thanks for bringing us someplace new and amazing 😊 keep exploring!!
Can you assemble that tent flysheet first or all in one?
Usually inner first.
Hello. Just the same as me i love being near the ocean. There i forage for seafood and cook on an open fire. Yes with pasta seafood goes well with it. I can remember my first wild camp and it was scary but after a few hours being on your own it is well worth it. Pitching up a tent then walking the ocean shore line is a must. Then at the end of a perfect day sit and watch the sunset. So peaceful and later at night look up and see the Stars and the moon-light casting late night shadows over the water.. Regards Mick from England..Xx
Hey guys! Awesome adventure, great job! Just wondering what the river levels were like when you did it? Planning this Solo in late September! Thx for the advice and best wishes, Eze.
Thank you 🙏 Fred reckons the river was at around 0.5m in Aberlour. September is usually a good time 👌
@@kfadventures7205 Thanks so much to you both! Will stand by for part 2!
lovely camp out wish I have that kind of beach near me, can you please do a video of haven in tent mode, here in Australia can't find a lot of trees near the beach. :)
I will see what I can do 😁
What a brilliant video thank you so much
Thank you 🙏
I live in the Tennessee valley among 6 lakes, the Smokey Mtn.s. I have used the Haven ever since they came out & have the large one now and would not use anything else. I really liked this video, please make more. 🤪😎👍🏻
Thank you so much 🙏 Sounds like you live in a paradise. Perfect for the hammock 👌
Great video, You were so lucky with the weather and midges. I'm looking forward to the next instalment. Cheers
Thanks. Yes totally; this was during the dry spell. The bugs all appeared again a week or so later when the rain arrived 😬🦟🦟
Looks like you had a great trip, you certainly picked a good week for it. Apache is a good boy, wish my indy was better on rapids. I really love your appreciation for the trees and tell Fred he can come cook for me any time 😂 Really enjoying it so far, gives me some enthusiasm to do it soon. looking forward to the next one. All the best, Paul
Aw thanks Paul! 🙏 I thought you had already done the Spey or are you looking to do a multi-day trip? Fred's been down several times solo but that was only my 3rd. It certainly keeps you on your toes!
@@kfadventures7205 I've done a small section, but really want to do a multi day trip! Thinking I might do the glass and Beauly next, bit gentler to see how indy gets on.
That would be lovely. On my list too for my new kayak 🛶 Indy looks so good in the canoe. 👌
Been looking at the Haven hammock for awhile now...just not a lot of trees where I'm from.
It can also be used on the ground. 😊
These are amazing bits of kit I’m out in mine tonight
Yay! Have a good one 🙌
What an amazing spot!
lovely camp out, thanks for sharing. must look into that “tenammock” of yours.
Enjoyed this Thanks 🙂
Great video! Really enjoyed this one. I had a bad expirience in a hammock a couple of months ago and it has put me off camping in them again! But I've been told by so many people to get out there and try it again and it will get better... I will try it again as people do seem to love them but in all honesty I am more of a ground dweller. That being said I really like the look of your hammock set up... And what a stunning location to camp!
Thank you 🙏 I feel exactly the same and have had many an uncomfortable night in a hammock. This one, however, is a game changer!
Mind if I ask what kind of Hammock you used?
@@IAmApollo Mine is the Haven Tent Hammock 😊
Well filmed and edited. Great light to film in!
Excellent video , thank you.. That hammock looks amazing! I never get any sleep in my normal hammock so end up sticking to the tent these days! Must have a look at this though, looks amazing..
Thank you Erin! I would highly recommend the hammock. It makes such a difference when the mat stays in place. The only disadvantage for us was that we were hammered with a 'Brexit' tax as it came from Europe!
Solo in Spanish means alone so no dogs should be involved in the concept 😆 therefore I need a dog. I would never ever be on my own in the dark.
You are totally right Raquel! I wasn't solo with my dog but I have now had another wild camp without him. Check it out :)
Wine works with everything
This was a Very good video and Beautiful nature. Great Job making this video. Looking foreward to more adventure s from your Channel. 😄😄😄
great video
Great stuff. Next one cook up on the fire, you will love it. Bring on next video
Thanks for allowing us too share your first solo adventure. I look forward too seeing you develope your skills, and ever growing enjoyment. Stay safe and happy bonny lass
Awesome ,
Great films, your dog is a lovely companion ❤️
Wow, what a place! I was supposed to be going canoeing in Canada this August, but cancelled 😢. Beautiful video 👍
Thanks Paul, It would be nice if we could go back this year. If there's a chance we could in October we would go but it's very doubtful. Fingers crossed we are allowed to visit next year without any issues, which area of Canada did you plan to visit?
Well done ...fantastic 👏
Great little camp , thanks for sharing
Great video and record of your trip. Your dogs a stunner!
Lovely spot for a wild camp. Wild camping laws are great in Scotland. Shame it's not the same here.
We have definitely got this right as long as people are respectful :)
Subscribed :) really enjoyed this, so good with no music also I think just the natural noises
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
Great video and congratulations on your first solo wild camp 🏕, beautiful location to New sub here
Thank you!
nice
