Says he is nice and warm while wearing his coat in the sleeping bag !
I tend to use a large key ring attached to the zip for easy pulling
Snuggle Puss - Our favourite cartoon character. Nice backyard you've got there matey.
1000% agree. The Kingdom of the Moorlands is a magical and beautiful land
Fluid-Flo!😌
Love my Ionosphere, brilliant in bad weather, I've used mine in a yellow warning storm and kept me , I hate to say it, snug! I have a few bits of theirs, for example the jungle blanket, jungle bag and their poncho. But the thing that really impresses me and rarely mentioned is the Antarctic Blanket. It really doesn't look much but it really is incredibly warm. Actually forgot i also have their Endurance 40lt rucksack which is really tough and comfortable to wear.
Now that we have a tent and a sleeping bag, can we also get some reviews / recommendations on ground pads? Sadly not every terrain offer such cozy moss patches.
Also, another thing to consider: how easy can these tents be deployed during rainy conditions?
😆 Mother nature definitely played a blinder with the moss bed. Leave it with me, I'm sure I can make some content for less comfortable ground
I haven't put this up in the rain however I did take it down in wind and rain. It's as you'd expect however not as difficult as some others. The poles are very easy to get in and out. Once you have a corner anchored down the rest fall into place. I released a Short and a regular viewer lives in the Outer Hebrides and he mentioned he's used his on some pretty extreme conditions with no issues what so ever. He also suggested a tarp over the top which helps too
Yep agree with the above, be interesting to get some reviews on things like ground pads.
Great video. Thank you for the review.
Glad it was helpful!
Very good video brother. Thank you for sharing all this valuable information 👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
Loved this next time maybe show some footage of the fire because this is my favourite when camping
Hey fella, randomly I didn't have a fire this time. Cold beans and beer hit the spot 😆
good stuff
(Ionosphere) Great piece of kit. and I love mine, but Snugpaks pricing has now gone bonkers; a very similar alternative is the Jack Wolfskin Gossamer 1................
@@lauriebloggs8391 I’ve got the gossamer one, cracking tent!
Great content as usual buddy. Looks nice and cosy in there. I agree with another comment, we're not all luck enough to sleep on soft ground. Would love to see more ground pads/sleeping mats. Keep up the great work
Thank you for the kind words my friend. The Moorlands are good to me for sure. Leave it with me with the sleeping mats. I'm sure I can sort something
I have the snugpak Antarctica xl goes down to minus 20 dont use it to much as its to dam warm
👏🏻👏🏻👍👍🏕🏕🧌⛺️
Excellent share
Thanks for visiting
I like my Snugpak stuff (except little too tiny compression stuff sack for sleeping bag)
I prefer the special force for the sleeping bag than the softie serie (for the central zip)
Morning Raphael. I think all stuff bags are designed to test the patience of a saint 😂
Great vid - thanks! I'm a huge fan of Snugpak, but I struggle to understand what bivi tents are for. For me, the benefit of a tent is space and the benefit of a bivi is instant setup.
Thank you for the kind words. The bivvy tent is more shelter to protect you and your gear, plus have as small profile as possible. Keeping it light and small
Did they send you the Snugpack Journeymen tent? I ask as it looks identical to the Ionosphere but it's 500 gram heavier, much cheaper,in this same colour and other colours.I just wonder what the differences are..?
They didn't, unfortunately not, however I'll make sure to ask when I speak to them next
Cracking video Mate . I find thar sleeping bags are usually are not wide enough for my physical size . I am 6ft 2in tall with a 63 in chest not including my arms . I can just say get into the ionosphere but I chose not to get it incase and would more than likely damage the tent . So I usually use a tarp and still looking for that elusive one man tent that is discreet but can take my size plus a German shepherd. Cheers Mate for your sharing your adventures.
You're more than welcome my friend. You're a walking God amongst mortals. I can see why you'd struggle. They do make an additional section you can zip into the bag however I think you'd need a few. My whippet fits in perfectly with me however he's nesh so would rather be at home under a heavy quilt 😂 thanks for watching, hopefully I'll share more adventures this year
@MoorlanderEDC I have one of those expander pieces but it's still to small .
@andrewjohnalbrighton6140 Try the vango banshee mate cheap-ish, solid, green and kind of stealthy if wild camping too.
What a great vid. I came across your video as I'm looking at saving up to get the Ionosphere tent and also a new sleeping bag. I'm impressed so time to save up (Or look out for a competition LOL).
Seems like the Softie elite 2 would be best for me as I the temperature Rating Low is -3°C / 27°F. I'm only camping in the UK Spring to early autumn & a warm sleeper. (Unless I'm wrong on the rating)
Glad it was helpful! I definitely welcome the competition for sure. The more content out there from UK creators the better it is for the whole community. If you start up a channel and want some advice I'd happily help out.
I run really hot when I sleep. The 2 is great all round year bag. I've been down to -3 in the Softie 3 and it was warm and comfortable
@@MoorlanderEDC Thank you kindly! I feel the UK needs more creators and make the community more versatile.
I wouldn't put myself as competition on here. I thought it would be nice to share my adventures. I have tried to do a TH-cam but since I lost my job, I'm lacking funds to get the rest of the stuff I need. Mainly Video recording equipment and a few other bits of gear too. I tried doing it on my phone but the battery dies so quick, it's not really a good idea due to needing my phone for the more obvious.
Hopefully I can get back on it soon.
@@BimbleWithBruce yep, the Yous Tubes are a marathon rather than a sprint. After a you hit the threshold for monitisation it opens up doors. Getting more similar creators out there is a win win 🤙
@@MoorlanderEDC I agree and I am a very long way off to that threshold for monetisation. Once I get my equipment then I can do more and just have fun in doing what I do. I think I'm doing ok so far but all in good time
Could you combine two different bags to make a year round sleep system like the British army sleep system???
Hmmmmmm... Great question. I'm going to say 'probably not'. The zip is either on the left or the right. You could maybe zip two together however you'd have a Siamese conjoined sleeping bag that would be twice the size. I'll Ask Snugpak if they have a similar solution and come back to you
@@MoorlanderEDC thank you, Your engagement and effort you make with us (subscribers) is brilliant thank you. Snugpak used to do a sleep system called Tactical Sleep System but unfortunately they don't seem to make it anymore, I would get the Special Forces Sleep System but can't get on with centre zips
looks like a good bit of kit .... however is it really wild-camping if one is in woodland at the edge of one's estate ???? lol
Wooooooh, wait a minute there sonny Jim. Are you wild camp shaming me there? We'll have none of that here on Moorlander EDC 😂😂😂 Strictly speaking as the 624th Crowned Monarch of the Kingdom of the Moorlands it's all my back yard... so to speak. I'll definitely do more of these. I've been trying to get out more and more as the channel grows and if this content is enjoyed my the masses I'll definitely do more. With the Moorlands and Peaks right on the doorstep of Castle Moorlander it's a no brainer. Next one will be up at the Roaches for sure
Nice video but where's your hat man 🤠
Good question. I did have one with me in the tent 🤙
I do not trust the Chinese-made Snugpack Ionosphere ones quite frankly. Lol! I will either go for the UK or the USA-made ones when it comes to quality.
I haven't had any issues with this one. Used it several times so far. Luckily, Snugpak have that option where you can choose either the imported versions or the UK made model
Great video. Thank you for the review.
My pleasure!
