    The Perfect Camp; Torrential Rain. Biting Wind. Nothing around for miles. Late September. Dusk all day long. And, after that substantial Trek to get there... A Grand Enamel Mug of Tea. Then Supper. All this rounded off with a Good Book and listening to the rain striking the tent. Bliss.

      Yep. I’m surprised you made the mistake of buying the one person version.
      I’m a short 5’5” and immediately went for the two person, great inner size ‘and’ two porches which not only gives you great flexibility in cooking/storage etc but is also far better options for ventilation and and not much of a weight penalty. 👍
      I went for this type of tent after living my Scarp two which I love the layout etc but can’t be doing with the silver colour, hence it’s goin on eBay with the extra poles etc and very little use.
      Current tents:
      Hilleberg Nammatj 2. ✅
      Terra Nova SC 2. ✅
      Hilleberg Akto. ✅
      Fjallraven Abisko lite 1✅
      MSR access 2 (great tent but inner first 😏used once, to go).
      Tarptent Scarp 2 (terrific tent but can’t be doin wit colour, to go)

The two man is usually the way to go. I trained in Survival with the Army back in the early 1980's. Being abandoned on Brecon for two weeks, without so much as a tarpaulin, really tested one's Survival skills. Frankly, a one man tent can be a luxury at times. Very best wishes.

    Hats off to you for going out in all weathers and not being just a fair weather camper.
    A few points though if I may.
    As picturesque as it might be for YT or IG, pitching your tent on top of the hill is just, well to be blunt, lunacy. Of course it is going to be windy. It's the most exposed piece of ground for miles and you've decided to pitch right in the middle of it.
    Get down off the top, in the lee of the hill and take advantage of the cover from the elements.
    As we used to say in the Army, any fool can be uncomfortable.
    Packing list - you really should have a change of clothes. By not doing so you put yourself at risk. You mention in the video that you put your waterproof trousers on having taken off your wet gear. Perfect time to put on your change of clothes. Not sure what your contingency would be if you ended up in the drink, with no spare change of clothes.
    Otherwise, can't fault your enthusiasm and energy in creating this content and putting yourself out there.

    Hi Paul!! Been looking forward to this one after seeing Andys and your insane photo on Instagram.
    It is effort doing all the B roll and end up doing it twice 😂😂
    Said to Andy its a bit of a bummer sometimes when the conditions are like that and you're with a buddy but in your own tents, not to bad on your own. But you still make it work I suppose and awesome to be outdoors and on a camp in any case! Glad you had a glorious morning though ☺
    Im trying to do the Wainwright's but only on 18 over the years 😂😂 its like 4 n half hours for me to get there and so hars to fit round work etc.
    Need more time!
    Wish id have tested the ground in my St Sunday Crag summit camp, that was a right drama! 😂
    Not as much as if you never had the right poles though! 😳🙈 Glad you had them, I got nervous just watching haha.
    I had that exact Highlander foil mat and after 3 uses all the foil started peeling off, please let 'us' know how you get on with yours 🙏🏼👍🏻
    Great food, great camp and superb video as always mate LOVED IT... THANK YOU!!

      I personally really rate taking a little thermos flask with me, I finish off my cooking by pour it straight into the flask and normally prenheat the flash wirh hot water that ibuse to make a tea while I'm waiting for it to finish cooking. In the dales there's always water within a walk of most camping spots. This saves on weight as I pre make my own dried meals e.g rice, milk powder, dried parmesan, and dried mushrooms (buy cheap at chineese supermarkets), thyme, garlic and stock powder. You can even do it with noodles and crack and egg in there. Keeps the pan from burning as well this way as the rice won't stick.

    This Highlander reflective mat says nothing about how much benefit you get from it - when you say 'one of these will def help', you could say that about a length of cardboard. No R-value is mentioned anywhere I've looked, so endorsing things that you profit from without any 'actual' stats to back up how useful the claim actually is, well, that's just not cool. I realise you prob won't even read, never mind respond to, this comment but I felt it needed said.

    I've used a Southern Cross 2 since Oct. 2017 and it's the perfect balance (or compromise) for a 3 or 4 season tent. 2.3kgs is acceptable when you get 'plenty' of room for 1, head height is good (I'm 6'3"). 2 entrances so you can dump your wet gear in one and cook in the other. Rucksack goes into the tent. Set up procedure is peg out the four corners, set up the red pole skeleton and attach the end clips, then set up the blue cross pole, attach all the other clips and peg out properly. 3 x clothes pegs are packed with every tent I own, they are essential multipurpose items and sort out flappy doors, amongst other things. 2 downsides to the SC2. 1. Supplied pegs are crap, but you should always have a variety of different pegs with you. 2 Price. I bought this as an 'absolute' bargain from Outside in Hathersage for £339GBP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, but today prices are eye watering.

    Aside from the potential affiliate sales, I just can NOT understand why anyone would voluntarily carry a Nalgene bottle up a mountain when they could carry a simple re-used mineral water bottle of between 750ml and 2L. Ditto for the frozen prawns in the steel flask (of which I have one)... a simple sturdy bag would have done as the prawns would have been perfectly fresh after the few hours involved. Unnecessary weight is... really unnecessary!

    Looks like you are enjoying the new job 👍

    Nice night out chief. Good trick with the prawns. Was that the AOKA tripod I spotted there? Cracking bit of vlogging kit. The SC is definitely compact, but looks solid for the bad weather. 🏕

    Really enjoying your videos,
    I’m learning so much by just watching you go through your
    Routine.
    I have no experience of wild camping, but seriously thinking
    about having a go.
    Keep up the good work.

    What happened to the Scarp 1 "tent of all tents".....I guess since you've become a slave to the marketing and advertising industry, you will demo and market whatever your "clients" ask you to demo in your videos.....I so much preferred it Paul when you were a genuine non-biased back-country vlogger. Still, needs must I guess as you need to pay the mortgage as we all need to.

    I do not understand why you'd want to sleep in such a small space. I'd much rather carry 2kg extra and live in luxury. Laying down eating, what the fuck is that all about?
    Nar mate, your kind of camping is not my cup of tea. Too cramped. No where to put your stuff. It's my idea of camping hell. Just get fitter and carry ½ a stone more weight.

    Are you counting your Wainwright's? Andy is a beast, a colossal amount! 0 Wainwright's for me though I have done 68 of the 95 Ethels since 10/06/21 so going quite well with those, think I'm going to fall short of finishing them this year though
    Nice to see a different tent too rather than the usual suspects!

    By the way, there is a famous italian alpininst, Reinhold Messner, from South Tyrol, is he a relative of yours?

    Hay Box Cooking - there used to be cooking in the ground by boiling the water and placing the pan of food in a hole surrounded by hay which acts as an insulator, most people think that because it is boiling it's head off it is cooking faster when in fact water will stay at the same temperature 100 degrees C by losing heat through evaporation, so what I do (at home) is boil potatoes in a pan, put a lid on and turn the heat off then come back a few hours later to boil the water to finish off cooking and heat he food up. Try experimenting next time when you have more time to prepare your food.

  • @davids9549
    @davids9549 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Why is 'Leave No Trace' on the ground a good thing, whilst trying to leave the largest possible trace online?
    In general, wild camping in most of England & Wales without permission is unlawful (although not illegal - there is an important difference). It is generally tolerated if done sensibly, discreetly and considerately, a status quo for which we are profoundly grateful. However, it is a delicate status quo, and plastering the internet with this kind of material risks upsetting that balance with the inevitable move towards an outright ban and eventual criminalisation - all in the name of conservation, elf'n'safety, environment, diversity, obvs.
