    This tent isn’t thought trough, it has a bug net, and yet theres a hole 1-2 fingers wide where the zippers meet, which makes the bug net useless. You might be ok mosquito wise, but nothing will protect you from ticks, spiders and other crawling insects

    Hey buddy! Hope you had a nice trip! Although, seeing as I'm the one you asked about the North Face Mountain 25 tent, that tent you just used in this video doesn't seem to compare to the NFM25 that you own. It seemed as if the flapping inside wasn't quite enjoyable and the overall sturdiness seemed questionable. I was looking forward to you reviewing the tent, but it seemed as if that didn't happen. Other than that, I'm glad you took time to get out and live, live, live! We all have had things we've had to deal with (namely a worldwide pandemic), but I'm glad to see that you're back at it and living your life to it's fullest. Besides the pandemic, I've been building up a 3rd gen 4Runner, trying to get it ready for the wilderness. Great 2023 to you bud!

I think out of both tents the northface would definately be the tent to take though as it is definately more suitable for the conditions at the moment . Nice to hear your on with new projects yourself ,sounds really interesting so i hope you have good times ahead, I have abit of spare time at the moment so already planning my next trip out, next vid will feature the bomb proof nf25 , All the very best for 2023 and take care mate..👍🍻🍻🍻

    I just bought a Mountain 25 to replace my OLD just plain Mountain Tent on which the PU was deteriorating and seam tape was coming off. TNF said they couldn’t fix it and gave me credit. It’s a real beast! I haven’t used it yet, but I think I’ll like it better than the old one. Though I have a Marmot Hammer tent I really want to give a workout this winter. So many plans! Maybe I’ll find out if it’ll handle winds like yours. I’m in the mountains of northwest Maine, there’s one just outside town that’s 1109m and sees 40mph+ winds with wind chills in the -30F and lower range all the time. Great video, there’s nothing like taking whatever nature throws at you.

    Just found this video, awesome. My Bivvy arrived this week and tried it out in the garden, struggled for room, but had a thermarest mat and air mat on top so that’s why. I’m going to try just the German mat underneath like yourself and my thermarest thin mat plus sleeping bag and hopefully that will help. Some are putting their rucksack in too, wow 😯 too much surely. So Basha definitely good idea to keep the weather and wind away, brilliant video mate, now following and look forward to watching your other vids 👍🏻😊

      Hi, the hooped bivi is a great bit of kit, it is definately low profile so best to use a thin sleeping pad inside, the foam mat you can use underneath to add insulation whilst also protecting the underside of the bivi. I generally always take a basha tarp set up with the bivi, there is room for the bergen/ rucksack at the bottom, but i suppose it all depends on ypur size and how much room you take, also depends on which size of bivi you have also. I hope you enjoy some great adventures out in your hooped bivi, a decent bit of kit that's for sure, Just from experience, if you are using a tarp set up it will afford you the option of allowing you to leave part of the zip down allowing fresh air inside, even when i have used the bivi without a tarp i leave just a few inches of the zip undone to allow some ventilation. With the outer zip flap if it were to rain unless it really chucked it down you should be ok and you wont get much of any rain inside. Thanks for watching. Atb 🙌👍👍

      @@residentoutdoors2303 brilliant advice and thanks for your time, I certainly will be taking my tarp alongside too and try that out, sounds best way really. I will either bit my bergan at the bottom or leave it outside under the tarp. Thanks again mate and safe travels all the best 👍🏻🏕

    hey, this is going to come a little out of nowhere, but is where any chance you would be willing to sell this tent second hand to me? i have the 2 man version and it was phenomenal, and provided it is in good shape i would be more than happy to pay for this second hand. Ive tried literally everywhere and every second hand shop, but i saw an old review you posted on an amazon page and figured that if i didnt ask i wasn’t going to get an answer. love ur vids btw.
