      Hi Deka, thanks for coming along, the rain was so so heavy throughout the night, but I stayed dry, no views at all this camp, it was an eerie spot, the wind coming at all angles was almost like people talking,

    NICE explanation and demonstration of the quick deploy bivy system you use. Thank you for taking us along and sharing your time outside. Stay well, stay safe, Stella.

    Nice little camp.
    Try using Prusiks on your ridgeline to stop your tarp flapping.

      Hi and thanks for watching, glad you liked it, thanks for the tip, I do use prusiks sometimes see my latest camp,
      I was happy in this one as the flapping was not noisy.

    Great stuff Adrian , I also use that system when tarp camping and when I did my bike camping trips . You are right a tarp and bivi opens up so many places you can pitch up. I’m guessing this was last night and not the 18th July like you said lol . I’m hoping to get out next weekend , maybe atb Dave

    Love it Adrian, what a great idea. Can I just ask you about the tarp setup? Was there a reason for not stretching the top of the tarp out to eliminate the flappiness?

      @northumberlandmountainhopper  11 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi and thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it, no reason really, it was not making a noise so I left it, I could have put a couple of Prusik knots on the ridge line and a longer line down the bank, but I had a lazy time !!!

      Hi and thanks for watching, glad you fancy a tarp
      It’s a DD super light tarp S 2.8x1.5 they also do a standard weight one
      Get some cheap guy line/ pegs
      Bivy was the Alpkit Hunka X/l. I use an army gortex one in the winter

    • @northumberlandmountainhopper
      @northumberlandmountainhopper  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Harvey. They are all done in HDR don’t know what happens to them, perhaps they let them through now the subs are growing ?
      I made the van video private as don’t know if it’s in keeping with my content ? What do you think ? Keep to BIVY’S and the occasional tent or. ????
      I shall return to this bivy spot, one day soon on a clear day.

      Hi and thanks for watching, yes, Rab neutrino pro 400 and ascent 1100 in the winter, when it gets really damp I use the army bivy as it breathes better, as a rule only get a bit around the foot box in the Hunka
      Only ever had the one bad experience, have you seen that one ? It was a bad one !
