    A truly stunning camp / location boys, there is so much I could comment on this camp, so I will have to condence my input.
    Yes I recon Keith will stick with that tent till next year lol, have you ever considered a bivvy bag , no tent just the bag, with off course a 3x3 mtr tarp 500 demiure, I think that's how it's described.
    Re the plastic bags over socks , we was doing this back in the sixties using bread bags, it really works. Some things can not be improved as old school still has its place in some situations.
    I overnighter in my car last year at Buttermere, walked around the lake. Truly outstanding vista in every direction.
    I could not agree more on what this hobby gives back tenfold to our mental heath. Our overall exceptional spiritual digest.
    For me the great outdoors is my indoors, to wake and fall asleep outdoors is second to none.
    I might add the editing is exceptional.
    Nature is clearly your God. it's always been mine.
    Thanks for an epic end of winter camp boys. 👏

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hit the nail on the head with all of these points Alan. Nothing quite like getting out and especially waking up in nature, particularly if you have and amazing sunrise/sunset! Hard to beat for mental recuperation 👌Buttermere is perfection btw, truly exceptional.! Yes we have considered it, would really like to give it a go this summer so let’s see what happens. All the best Alan - BR

    What a morning that was lads. One of the best camps I'd had in a long time that day. Don't think there is a hobby as good as this that gets that dopamine going.

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Special wasn’t it mate and great having a gab with everyone else who was out on the same dates and sharing that experience! All the best - BR

    Amazing lads! That Abisko Shape 2 is mint, the weight is also superb. My Keb Dome 2 is a beast but weighs like one also.

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for watching mate and glad you enjoyed it! Absolutely loving the Shape 2 at the moment. Great space to weight ratio and it’s unbelievably strong. Had it out in 40mph gusts and it ate them no problem! All the best - BR

  • @MountainManJohnFilms
    @MountainManJohnFilms 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Some stunning shots there . I'm kinda thinking this tent is great for those LONG nights... These camps are just the best huh! I only got one winner camp and film in this year....never enough! Great quality. Keep it up . 👍 I was over on Helvellyn probably a day or two after. Just awesome

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s perfect for those long nights! Had it up on red tarn by pike o blisco on a solo camp recently. Terrible weather so double polled it and was held up in it for a hours on end. Absolute perfection 👌 always next year pal and spring produces plenty of winter feeling camps, so every chance you’ll be able to get one in! All the best - BR

  • @stevenjolley1251
    @stevenjolley1251 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I've used a Vango tent shaped like that for harsh camps on Sacfell Pike. Defo the best design

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Tunnel tents are a tried and tested great design. They offer great weight to room ration and when pitched correctly can be really strong and reliable. All the best - BR

    Thanks for sharing. Beautiful sunset and sunrise. You're both getting very poetic with your descriptions of the scenery and it shows just how much you love this hobby.

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haha cheers, speaks for itself to be fair. Absolutely blessed to have such unbelievable scenery at a stones throw. Thanks for watching and all the best - BR

    @cols_serenescapes 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You're not wrong lads. This video has to be up there with the best you've done. All the tried and tested techniques working well as always, but when you get conditions like that, it's made for a really special film.

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah everything just seemed to come together perfectly on this camp! Hopefully we can have plenty more like it as we head into spring 🤞 thanks for watching and all the best - BR

      Glad to hear you enjoyed it and we shot this on IPhone 12 Pro Max. All the best - BR

  • @cuprajake1
    @cuprajake1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I looked at the tiger print abisko, then got worried about leaks and seam sealing, bought a used 'new' tn blizzard 2 off the back of the last vid, then scored a hilleberg nallo 2 on eBay 😂😂😂

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Haha get the sentiment, if anything though they’ve probably been subjected to even higher QC. I remember reading they got special treatment and taken out and tested again. The blizzard is a cracker if you can pick it up at a bargain and that’s your budgetary limit. Otherwise you’ll likely still have the itch and need a Fjallraven or a Hilli. Sound like you’ve nabbed a bargain mate. Keep up updated on how you get on! All the best - BR

    When was this? I camped on Maiden Moor a couple of weeks ago and hardly saw anyone except people on the top top of Dale Head in the snow.

    • @borderraiders
      @borderraiders  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi mate and this was around the end of Feb, cracking weekend and heard a few people out the same weekend how special it was!

    • @boolay75
      @boolay75 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m pretty certain it was you guys I saw then. Conditions were perfect.
