    10/10 for the time laps sunrise Damien!! That little tent looks spot on for a couple of nights out, and I think the pattern is perfect for in the woodland.
    Thanks for the vid mate.

    • @Fell_Wanderer
      @Fell_Wanderer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think the flecktarn camo pattern is good for dark woodland camping, autumn and winter time would blend in well with the drab colours. those Gopro Hero4 cameras do make lovely timelapse's, much better than the Panasonic HC-X900 I also take along and is three times more expensive. Thanks, Damian.

    Hi Damian. Only recently came across your channel and have been catching up. Love the vids like this in particular but all are fun to watch. Keep 'em coming and quite agree with comment below, don't stop the waffling. Seriously, the ability to natter to the camera so well without being self conscious is not to be taken lightly. Very few bushcrafters/wildcampers have this ability, I think.

      Thanks Steve. It moved me when I downloaded and seen the footage for the first time, must have been a very special place for the ancient people living in the hills with views like that. I do like me new tent and could get used to hill tenting because of the scenery, makes a nice change from woodland camping. It rained on my last trip which I've yet to upload and didn't leak so well pleased wih it, ATB.

    • @Fell_Wanderer
      @Fell_Wanderer  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks mark, you can park beside the white bridge that goes over the Carey Burn, then its a short walk up onto Hart Heugh. Dehydrating is the way forward, less weight, bulk and food still tastes surprisingly good. How you getting on with that new tent, the one you took up Simonside, is it coping in high wind?.. I'm into hill camping now, sick of the dark and dreary forests of Northumberland, was so refreshing to be on top of the fells for a change. ATB.

    • @Fell_Wanderer
      @Fell_Wanderer  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      With dehydrating food, use less liquid with the initial cooking as drying takes a lot longer and use grease proof paper as this stops food falling through the gaps. Check out Mick 12thSagitarian, he has some good videos on making jerky mate, atb.

    • @Markwildcamp
      @Markwildcamp 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Fell Wanderer always enjoy the tops, it's not a bad little tent, was a terrible pitch on simonside.

    nice one Damien im going up there tommorow not sure to do hart heugh,watch hill or cold law.I was going to get a 1 man mill tech tent for the hills but have decided to use a tarp in a half diamond set up with walking poles on the deck. ive just uploaded the 2 set ups take a look you might be surprised how easy it is.

    • @Fell_Wanderer
      @Fell_Wanderer  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      A tarp and bivy is always my preferred method, it can get windy up on the fells and without the wall for shelter a tarp would have been beaten up. Thats why I've bought a tent just for hill wandering in windy or bad weather. Will look at your setups now mate, atb.
