For all you gear junkies, here's the current full range of my hiking tents. What am i missing???
Xmids
Your new baby!
Hi Barry, you nailed it yet again with your presentation..... 8 tents....WOW... You should have lined them up favourite to least favourite ha ha . ATB Tom
Thanks Tom. Yes, I thought it was high time I bought them all out so everyone could see them. And to your comment of ranking them, that’ll be like saying which of my kids I like best. 😁 So in reply, they all have their great points and not so great points. However I’m happy with each of them, depending on the situation and terrain. Happy camping.
I have the Macpac Microlight it's my first can you make more videos
Thanks. Yes, it was my first tent as well. It’s been in many adventures with me. I’m taking a break from making vids at the moment. 😀
Dam, that's a lot of tents. You might have a tent collecting problem. Hahaha. Thank's for sharing all your tents. It was fun seeing all of them and seeing how you used them over the years. Well done! Most poeple do reviews on tents they barely used. This was great because you used them all and have lots of experience. I just subscribed. I started a channel recently too and am always looking for inspiration. Let’s stay connected!
Thanks man! Yes, I certainly do like using all my tents and not just talking about them. I checked out your channel. Good editing skills and content. Well done. I subbed to your channel as well. Keep up the good work. 👍🏼
That’s very kind of you, thank you!
I do feel we collect tents for the places we tent, I don't need a bomb proof tent for forestry areas I travel in the north island, so mine are all light weight single wall or mesh inner tents and my tarp...
Little envious of your hilleberg, but it no different to me owning jimmy as my off-road vehicle and admiring the mud beast's you see on off road channels... 😂
Look forward to seeing what you will do with an ultra light set up be it tarp or trekking pole or what ever... watch storm test of that would be a laugh.
Yeah a tarp in a storm sounds more like a disaster lol! There’s always a first thought. 😀 I do love my Hilleberg. They are expensive, however they will last you for many years, evens a generation or two. The quality and strength is fantastic. And yes, every tent for every situation. One tent doesn’t fit the bill. All the best out there. 😀
Ha ha - happy tent shopping for the next one :)
Haha! Indeed. Thanks. 😁⛺️😁
@@wildmountainman1 thought I was OTT with 4 tents, a bivvy and a tarp. An ultralight and a pyramid next?
Yes. Watch this space. 🤣
Impressive! Ever been tempted by the Sololight? 300g less than the Microlight which I find tricky to get enough tension on the inner walls.
Hi there. Due to the larger size of the microlight, I’m not tempted to step down to something that’s smaller, even if it is a bit lighter. One tip on the microlight is to independently peg out the inner and outer (you’ll need to take about 4 extra pegs) so you can get greater tension on each layer.
Fantastic gear bud, 👌👌
Thank you. 😁
Tents I had at one time were hilleberg, an Akto, Soulo, nallo, namatj, tarra. The nallo being the favourite except for storms for which the tarra was used. The akto was just used for short trips, the nammatj used once in the snow, the soulo not at all. The akto was ripped out of the ground in a 90mph storm, my fault, only damage being a slighly bent pole.
Hillebrg recon that the Tarra can survive anything on the planet, which I can believe as sheds wind, having incredible strength aswell. It can also be double polled and secured with as many guylines as you want.
Glad to hear you’ve found some tents that really work for you. Happy camping.
You have a full rainbow there so you have it covered 🌈😀 Except where's the trekking pole tent?
Yes you’re right, I do like my colours. Hmmm, an UL tent with trekking poles could be a good option. 😁⛺️😁
Nearly as many tents as me! ;p
Haha! How many do you have?
What are you missing....i reckon another tent barry..!
Ha ha ha
I like your thinking, Rich! 🤣Actually I have a 7-day trip planned at the end of the year, where I’d like to get more use out of my Mont Moondance as I’ve only used it 2-3 times.
1:31 - Have you tested or tried the Nemo Chogori 2 Person tent by any chance?
No, sorry, that’s not a tent I have had any experience with.
Hello, how have you found the Mont 1 man tent in windy conditions ?
Hi. It handles moderate windy conditions ok, I wouldn’t pitch it in strong wind though. I add a couple of extra guy lines at the top, (loops provided) which helps as well.
@@wildmountainman1 OK thanks.
Hey mate, I'm trying to find a groundsheet for my Macpac Microlight tent. Any tips?
Hey there. I simply use a $4 blue tarp from Mitre10. It does great.
@wildmountainman1 thanks heaps brother, appreciate the quick response! 😊
Awesome 😎 I really love your channel, not only for the content but also because I'm a fellow traveler myself and I can definitely learn something from you. If you're ever curious, check me out ✌️
Thank you for your kind comments. I certainly check out your channel. Happy travels. 😁
