Great video dave loving the rucksack 👍

ace.

Loved it Dave .... done it many times. Cheers from Newquay.

i started off wild camping in a green eurohike tamar 2 i payed from gooutdoors £25 pound and i still have it now i even camped on my first wild camp in january new year eve with my cousin and i stayed for 3 days and 3 nights in zero 5 degrees good although i camped all 4 seasons in it its a 3 season very good tent to start off with 😊

I’m thinking of getting a 40 foot rubber dinghy and going to France

Hello from NZ, if your shoulder straps are too thin or make your shoulders sore, then buy a couple of car seat belt covers. I recommend to all my students that they buy them. I prefer the woolen ones; you will find that this will make it more enjoyable and easier to carry your load. I recommend that you put the tent at the top of the pack and your mat at the bottom. Having the tent at or above the shoulders will be less stressful on the body, having it on the bottom will make you lean forward more and fatigue you more, also it will impede your gait. As an instructor in bushcraft in the mountains for 50+ years, I have found that these couple of tips work and will make your trips more enjoyable. I'm 76 and still carrying 20 kgs. It has been nearly 60 years since I did my first 'solo' and any fear will soon evaporate after a few more. The first forty years are the worst, then it becomes easier.🤣🤣Anyway that's my two cents worth. Enjoyed the video, ATB Cheers from the mountains of NZ 😊😊

Nice one Dave - welcome to the club! You'll get better sleep the more you get used to it... also, whisky helps! Haha!

Yes yes and yes yes yes and yes Yes and yes and yes Yes and yes and yes

Always a surprise when you open the door on Dartmoor. Never know what you gonna get.

The first camp is always a learning curve. Glad you finally got out and done it 🤙🏼 We'll have to sort a camp out mate!

This was amazing presentation, shots are amazing!

Beutiful

Great video Dave. I remember my first wild camp, the weight on the shoulders was a shock to the system 😆 Back then, I didn’t realise the waist strap takes part of the weight 🫣 You’ll learn a lot from this camp, including what you probably don’t necessarily need to take next time. But it’s sooooo worth it isn’t it, that solitude is the best feeling. I love that tor, I walked past it on my video last week, it has so much character. Watching your video has made me decide to camp there soon. Thanks for a great watch 😁

Well done pal👏👏👍

Walked it today ! OMG hot and humid by the river and the climb up is a killer, I Suggest doing it anti clock wise, great video and was inspired to take the walk Thanks.

It looks beautiful 😍

Congratulations on your first camp on Dartmoor 🎉. I thought that bag might be a bit of a pain without the waist belt. you learn a lot from the first camp ⛺️

That pink sunrise is gorg 😍

Great video again mate 👍

Word of warning when you decide to visit Haytor, it's very touristy! Park up by Saddle Tor and walk up 🤙🏼 Great video as usual mate!

What a stunning hike man, what a magnificent work!

This is beautiful 😍

Brilliant vid mate. I think the tor that is hard to get to is called Luckey Tor which is on os map. 👍

Love Bench Tor it is one of our favs easy parking and we being OAPs walk the easy way up ( the way you walked back) sat and enjoyed many a pasty cuppa coffee and the views from the top never been to the falls and seeing the walk down to them dont think we will ever do that so thanks for doing it us 😍

Good to see some proper Dartmoor weather on your channel - haha! Keep up the good work, buddy!

Crock of Gold, Hexworthy to Princetown is my Dartmoor walk this Sunday

hi great video and weather 😂yeah supposed to be hot this week 👌👌

We did a great walk of that area not long ago , think I called it war horse walk, Legis Tor more south towards cadover is lovely, the holes in the wall at the warren house are kennels. Then film warhorse is great if you haven’t seen it , wasn’t filmed in that weather though 😂

Nothing like Dartmoor weather. Soothing in a tent..

Thanks for having us 🤙🏼 Next time, leave the rain at home 😉

I walk from Prewley moor up past Sourton Tor and then up Corn Ridge to Branscombe's Loaf every other day throughout the year-except when lightning is forecast (for obvious reasons). It's my exercise that keeps me going at 74 years old. Yes, it's a climb, but you get used to it. The whole walk takes me around an 1 hr 40 minutes. I know it's daft but I've named most of the rocks along the route!

One of my favourite places 👍🏻

If the cows are lying down , they are tired ,!!!

Great video dave , cornridge proper calf burner mate 😀

Fecal dropage 😂 Great video mate 🤙🏼

Looks great Dave👌

Looks great weather👍

Learning the best routes from tor to tor is half the challenge, I love route planning but despite pre planning once your on the ground it can be very different. Thing I like is once you’ve done an area it stays in your head forever. We started making videos but it’s finding the time to get out with work and family commitments, I’m off out this Wednesday and really looking forward too it , great video btw Adam

Also mate you need to count Hampster Tor the small one just before HW😂 jumped the gun before the video had finished haha . Adz

It’s little Tor , really great little tor , good video mate Adz

they lay down to chew cud

Kent and Dartmoor are beautiful in different ways would be boring if they was the same! The stones are 😎 last time I was there someone had a fire in the middle of it . Not happy!!! I'm more of a Yorkshire moors and dales kind of girl 😊

No cows are lazy

Looks awesome. I hope to get up there this year.

Thanks for the interesting exploration. It was nice to get distracted from daily chores.

I went to school just along the road from here ❤️

Oh I like that💪👌 I love waterfalls. That looks awesome.

Hi Dave Great hike & stay fit walking Here my lace shoes with you
