  • On this one I headed up to a local haunt which I hadn't camped on for over 12 month , the weather decided who's boss on this one .
    I was tent bound more or less right after pitching up and the wind and rain just got steadily worse , I sat it out till morning before getting packed up and escaping the madness.
    The annoying thing as I sit here uploading this video the sunset and weather is perfect right now , I simply chose the wrong night !

    so you pitch at tent on top of a large hill . knowing a storm was coming , then you moan about how blowy it was and heavy rain as well . common sense tells you pitch else where .

    Always valuable to have the realities of camping in grim conditions up on TH-cam too Dave - and to get reassurance from your calm and unflappable (unlike the tent!) manner safely digging in until dawn. Still managed some ace shots all the same. Thanks for posting and better luck next time! Cheers. Rich 👍

    There is one think I pack and hope I never need, is my Snugpac SF bivvy bag, for the odd occasion when your main shelter may fail in severe storms, it may save your life. I did use it one a few winters ago where the wind was so strong it would suck the warmth out of the Vango Blade tent, I had to use the bivvy bag to keep the warmth in the down bag. This was in Australia in the snowy mountains at around 1600 meters.

May I ask what you would have chosen for these conditions, the msr looks great but specs aren’t great but it nice and light… I’m looking for a tent by the way so genuine question. 😊

      Thanks for commenting , MSR although is a great tent does flap a lot in wind . So if I knew it was going to be that windy I would have used my Hilleberg akto . But I have since sold this tent as I felt it was too low for me . So I purchased a Helm Compact 1 at 1/4 of the price of the hilly and use this for expected poor weather camps .

    Anyone poser who says they love camping in that kind of weather has never camped in that kind of weather. Literally impossible to catch a single minute's sleep. Then of course in addition to you and all of your shit being soaking wet, you've got to pack everything up while trying to keep it from being blown a 100 miles away.
    The worst weather I've been caught in was while hiking along the Platte river in Nebraska while following the Lewis/Clark route. Hit by 80 mph wind/rain in the middle of the night during a freak summer storm.
    And no, I didn't love it.
