I Climbed North Africa's Highest Mountain in Winter - Mount Toubkal
After months of planning and training, I reached the summit of my first 4,000m mountain.
Prior to this trip, the highest I had ever been was just over 1,000m. Mount Toubkal is over 4 times higher than that at 4167m, so this definitely wasn't easy...
This adventure means a lot more to me than just being at the highest point in North Africa, it was an entire week making unreal memories with the most incredible group of people.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TOUBKAL TREK OR ANYTHING MOUNTAINEERING PLEASE DO COMMENT OR MESSAGE ME ON INSTAGRAM, TRUST ME I KNOW HOW STRESSFULL IT CAN BE PREPARING FOR THIS SORT OF THING.
If ya made it all the way til the end, I really do appreciate it, more cra...

Crib Goch - My First Scramble in The UK
Просмотров 526Месяц назад
After hearing that Crib Goch was up there with the most dangerous grade 1 scrambles in the UK, ofcourse I had to go do it with zero experience. Obviously you're seeing this video, so I didn't die! But one wrong move and you definitely could be up there, it definitely deserves its reputation. Me and three of my mates drove 4 hours to complete CRIB GOCH despite there being a storm of 70mph winds ...

Base layers, winter waterproof trousers, thick fleece and hardshell jacket. Ofcourse all your basics like gloves, beanie etc. (I just followed the kit list on the MuchBetterAdventures Winter Toubkal page) At summit i’m pretty sure it was -8°C! Thanks so much :)

    Is it nervous camping outdoors by yourself? I've never camped out just on my own before! It's also a good lung workout blowing up the air mattress, keeps the lungs healthy. My mate is big on fitness also and says it's good for you and regularly blows a double by himself! You'll get better the more you do it. Already impressive you blew the pillow up in just two breaths!

    • @MitchMKNZIE

      It can be quite scary at first, but you’ve got to realise that if you’re doing it in places like The Peak District, no one out there is dodgey like elsewhere in the country. Any sounds at night is just wind, sheep or birds! Once you’ve done it once it gets a whole lot easier from then onwards👍🏻

There's a time and place for the sachet meals, on longer trips, or as emergency food, but if you can carry it on overnighters, fresh and "real" food is the way to go The more you can do to enjoy a hike, and camp without sacrificing safety gear, makes you all the more keen to do it again and again (almost like a "chocolate fix") Pretty classy pancake flipping there Mitch, and I loved the "rock" plate slash table hahaha very rustic I enjoyed watching this vid as much as you boys did actually doing it i reckon haha ..... bring on the next one ..... and soon😉

    Why bother going back for a lighter when your mate's stove has piezo ignition? You could have lit your stove from his! Also, I know it's already been said, just heat the food in it's unopened pouch in boiling water and no clean-up required. A long handled spork comes in handy for eating the contents straight from the pouch.

    Boil a little water in your pot after cooking and use a plastic spoon or a dish sponge to clean it up. The sooner you do it the easier it is to clean. You also probably had the gas too high which caused the food to burn on the bottom of the pot
