A Chilly Autumn Wild Camp - Nortent Vern 1 - Lake District
Nice to be back out camping in weather other than rain or poor weather conditions! The UK weather this year has been mostly rain and high winds again with what seems to be an increase of storms as well! What’s going on? This was a nice camp using the Nortent Vern 1 tent again, the tent handled winds no problem of 25mph and 30mph gusts. Nortent have upgraded the tent poles from 9mm to 9.5mm and have now sent these to me free of charge so will use these on my next trip and compare’ plus I can use them for double poling in really high winds. I still haven’t made my mind up about the Nemo Tensor Extreme sleeping pad, its comfortable enough but considering the very high R-value you can’t reall...

Wild Camping in Bleak Conditions - Using The New Nortent Vern 1
Просмотров 4,3 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Another interesting Wild Camp in Lake District. This time I was using the new Nortent Vern 1 which many people are trying to say this could be a challenge to to Hilleberg Soulo. The weather conditions were awful again, this time the visibility was very poor with rain, mist / fog with 20mph winds. The route was rocky, wet and slippery for first half and then boggy for the remainder. The tent is ...
Wild Camping in Non-Stop Rain - (Testing the Nemo Tensor Extreme Sleeping Matt).

Weather forecast got it wrong again as it was supposed to be very light rain but ended up being non-stop heavy rain all evening and night. However, still good to be out taking in all the countryside air and admiring the Great Lake District views. Also got to test out the Nemo Tenser Extreme sleeping Matt which was very comfortable and warm. Apart from being tent bound all night it’s still good ...
My Winter Wild Camp From Hell! How it All Went Terribly Wrong!
Просмотров 36 тыс.9 месяцев назад
What started off as a promising looking wild camp turned into the worst wild camping experience I could imagine. If only I had taken my 9 Inch Easton tent pegs the tent would have been secured, unfortunately the ground underneath the snow was a bit soft and muddy probably from all the previous rain. No boulders about either to put on top of the pegs just wasn’t my day. The wind gusts only start...
Wild Camping in Storm Babet - Hilleberg Nallo 2 (RedTarn)

A much tougher hike up to red tarn than anticipated, mainly due to the high winds and rain. Red tarn is 720meters high and is situated below the summit of Helvellyn which is third highest peak in England. The Hilleberg Nallo 2 tent was excellent, straight forward to put and very stable in the winds with good living space. Look forward to taking this tent on my winter camps although I still love...
Wild Camping at Sprinkling Tarn - Lake District (Terra Nova Starlite 2 Tent)

A good walk up to Sprinkling Tarn from Seathwaite farm although visibility wasn’t the best at the top. Nights starting to draw in a bit now as it was dark by about 8.40pm. Weather and views the following morning were superb, think I picked the wrong day and should have waited till the Saturday. Starting to get into my favourite time of year for Wild Camping, love autumn.
Blea Water Wild Camp - Big Agnes Rapide SL Sleeping Pad Review

Also wanted to try out the Big Agnes Rapide SL Sleeping Pad, have to say it’s the most comfortable pad I’ve ever had and will be my go to pad from now on.

A Very Windy Wild Camp In The Terra Nova Starlite 2 Tent

Good little test in the wind for the Starlite 2 and have to say it handled it no problem at all. I definitely think pitching the tent into the wind is the right way to go, that was a good tip from Taunton Leisure. Good thing also about this tent is the space inside should I get tent bound because of bad weather etc. The total weight is 1.8kg including the footprint modification for the vestibul...
Wild Camp Lake District - Terra Nova Starlite 2 Tent Review
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.Год назад
Wild Camp at Grisedale Tarn Ambleside and a look at the Terra Nova Starlite 2 tunnel tent and also the Rab Ascent 300 sleeping bag. Was very impressed by both but could do with looking at the regular wide sleeping mat due to the luxurious space inside the Starlite. My EXPED UL Sleeping Matt is overkill for summer due to its R-value of about 4.8 which is about -18 for winter.

After a couple years of Wild Camping I finally realised that carrying my winter gear which weighed about 18.5kg during the spring, summer and autumn was really over kill and far too heavy.

A short but steep wild camp at Stickle Tarn Lake District on what turned out to be another wet and windy wild camp. Have come to learn that you cannot trust the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Weather forecast was much windier and colder than forecasted, that was my second issue of the day, the first issue was my hydration pack water pipe had kinked and couldn't get any water out as I was walking.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your experiences. I'm sure everyone who's watched it has learned/re-learned/had reinforced, important lessons. We all need to be reminded that Mother Nature can get really nasty & that we need to take all necessary precautions in an effort to mitigate her nasty moods. Strong Gusty Winds are the most difficult of nasty weather we have to deal with, much more so than rain or cold. Yes, I've "Like", Subscribed, & rang the notification bell. I carry a Soto WindMaster fuel canister type of stove. I always begin with a full 4oz canister, thanks to my G Works fuel transfer tool. I have an old wool sock; I cut the toe box off, cut a small hole in the toe end of the sock so I can pull it over the top of the fuel canister & leave the covered valve accessible when I want to use it. The wool sock prevents condensation from freezing on the metal canister when being used by the stove PLUS a sock covered metal canister is much more comfortable when placed underclothing to keep warm or next to your body when inside your sleeping bag. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada, U.S.A.

    I sympathise, I had the same tent for over 12yrs, I took it cycle/camping all over Europe and it performed brilliantly. Then last October during storm Babet (I think it was called) I was camped in Pateley Bridge, the winds were so strong the outer was blown against the inner and capillary action took over. I was getting a constant shower all night long! By early morning all my kit was wet through, fortunately I was using a sleeping bag cover or my down sleeping bag would have been a soggy mess. Anyway I threw the tent out and bought a Durston X-Mid 1 person tent. Haven't regretted it.

    • @azclaimjumper
      @azclaimjumper 9 месяцев назад

      My solution to your experience is the outer material I selected when I bought my Western Mountaineering Down filled Antelope (5ºF) sleeping bag. I selected the Gore-Windstopper outer fabric that has a 12,000 hydrostatic head rating. I don't want my Down filled sleeping bag to get wet. I could have selected the Micro-Fiber outer fabric that is lighter & more packable, but only has a 2,000 hydrostatic head rating. When that fabric gets wet so will the Down.

      @@dougieranger A tent with a broken pole may fall on the people inside, however I think it should continue to provide more shelter than getting out into the open & unsheltered surroundings as long as the guylines remain reasonably intact & stakes remain staked into ground. I like to think that Hilleberg 3-season tents are stronger than so-called 4-season tents made by other manufacturers. Hilleberg 3-season Enan is the model I chose instead of the 4-Season Akto. When I'm expecting a night of strong gusty winds, I make it a point to keep my boot right next to the top part of my sleeping bag because if I should need to get out of the tent in an emergency, my boots are the very most important piece of equipment I have. I, personally, would be severely limited if I didn't have boots on my feet. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada, U.S.A.
