The Cumbria Way Part 1
#wildcamping #hiking #lakedistrict
Join me on days 1 and 2 as i walk the 75 mile The Cumbria Way one of Britains prettiest long distance walks.

The first couple of days take me from Ulverston into the Coniston Fells then onto the mountainous route ending up at the stunning Langdale Pikes.
Watch this space for upcoming part 2 of my adventure

Join me on a sunny day as i head to north dartmoor for a hike from Belstone around the surrounding Tor's ending up at Rowtor. With the good weather i took the opportunity to brush up on map reading techniques across the featureless terrain but found that a bit easier than the ground underfoot. It was a great day and camp though

    Lots of bad reviews about this tent but mine is great I cant fault it, but then there are fans of other makers out there that will look for faults as always but they had been trying the tent out in 40 plus winds and it does mention in the booklet that comes with tent about double poling it for more strength also it does not really need seam sealing but users on here have mentions about sealing the areas were the toggles are as will let tiny droplets in but it does let much in and nothing to worry about and im yet to get out in the rain with mine as of yet

      exactly , and you can literally see in video , how thick insulation and loft is , and due to the fact it's down - it must be warm . I have worn less insulated Icepeak down ski jacket , in strong and cold wind at 0 celsious ( due to wind feel was minus 8-10 ) and bellow down jacket I only had cotton t-shirt and didn't felt cold for one hour of standing up , sitting down . I just hate to layer too much , I love to have one baselayer and one jacket above it and that's it and it's enough for my climate and use . I have seen videos with Pumori parka , which is 700+ $ and it doesn't seem to be much more insulated . i am probably wrong because Pumori parka has almost 500 grams of down insulation and Decathlon has just 200 g .

    Ah Paul, sorry about the stove issue. That sucks! Fair play for staying though. I hope you didn't need to ditch them steaks. Looked like a nice little spot you had there. My dream one day is to walk the South West Coastal Path. Gotta do it before I get too old though. I have to say, I'm not a fan of the Cascade Wild table. Nice and light, but always found it uneven and a bit of a faff. I can recommend the SOTO Field Hopper. Whilst it's expensive and not as light, it's dead easy to put up and pack away. It works really well.
