Hiking with Rosy
Добавлен 28 мар 2009
Hi, I'm Mark (aka Rosy). On my channel you will see me hiking, lighting fires, and trying different Tarp setups. Also some outdoor cooking along the way.
I'm fairly new to creating videos on RUclips, but have been getting out hiking and spending time in the woods and countryside all my life. Work and general 'stuff' has got in the way of this, but I'm now rediscovering my love of nature, hiking, and of course fires! :)
I've only just really started on here, but am looking forward to doing loads of interesting hikes, cooking in the woods, and a few reviews of gear I've found useful.
If you're interested in that then click SUBSCRIBE now - and come along with me!
Also join me on Instagram @hiking_with_rosy for photos of the fun! :)

I use high visibility orange paracord with all my lines. 30 Ft. away you can barely see them!
You use wrong way to tighten the mooring hitch: The mooring hitch can slide along the standing part (A-B); a pull on the other parts (C,D) can lock it into place, forming a fixed loop also known as the Lapp knot. (Eng Wiki) This way opens You new features of this hitch/knot! And it will be easy to release, in did!
Nice video. Good to see the knots tested. Your mooring hitch is _not_ a painter hitch, which seems to be: loop over bar, standing end loop through, working end loop through that, cinch. It has two 'threads' over the bar, and pulls away very cleanly without snaking round the bar. I'd love to see it added to your video. ( eg ruclips.net/video/qlSo42fYZM0/видео.html)
As far as I can work out, the Mooring Hitch is MEANT to settle in the way you demonstrate when you were trying to work it loose. Once settled, the quick release faces the same direction as the bight it is pulling on. It is therefore much harder to release and requires a sharp tug to do so. This is just what's needed when mooring your boat up by its painter, greatly reducing the risk of an accidental release.
Very good introduction of this bag, thanks a lot.
Never seen such poor attempts. Sorry but i really haven't.
ruclips.net/video/mWWfF4H9ZCg/видео.htmlsi=__ka9W7k3Gu2Lh6H
you say so a lot
I like the clove quick release knot, then the tumble hitch in this video.
There are solutions for highwayman and others in this video ruclips.net/video/gx6Sof1ZWSY/видео.html
Thank you for a great review of what looks like the perfect long jacket, it’s always good to see a product before purchasing and through your exceedingly excellent product review it looks a quality product that will be do the job in our inclement weather we endure here in the UK.
Thanks for the video, Rosy, I really appreciate your testing of each knot! The second knot is not the Tumble hitch as described on Animated Knots and Notable Knots. Look carefully and you will see the difference. The bight near the pole is in the rear of the vertical bight on the tumble, and the tumble flops forward (or tumbles) when you pull it. The knot you tied is actually this knot as described on reddit: www.reddit.com/r/knots/comments/11wq5b9/ I actually prefer it over the tumble hitch (and you may, too). I don't know it's name at this point.

Great water purification system, the "coffee" looks great, enjoy the ambience. Hope you don't need the TP 🧻🚽 Fun video Mark. TFS
hiya mate just stumbled across your channel and thought id check this vid out first as I've just used my water filter for the first time this weekend, great to see your system, I just used the msr trail shot... and im not dead so im guessing it worked, I can tell this will be a channel ill learn a lot from, great to connect with you Alan team54

Maybe you could make a kalmyk loop. If you need to have tight rope around the branch you can still make the kalmyk loop and thread the rope through the kalmyk loop to create a sinching loop. In any of those cases the kalmyk loop will easily get released.
Will you be doing any videos this year as a long time has passed and not sure if you’ve retired from RUclips?hope your ok and in good health.from a fan
I did a demonstration of the quick release of highwayman's hitch in a scouting session but I ended up putting a lot of strain and the knot kind of locked up and failed horribly. I finally found a solution for it: the tumble hitch and its all thanks to you sir. Great video !
This was beautiful ♥️ Thank you so much for sharing! God Bless! ♥️🙏🙇🙇
well blended page settings. 😆2022 resolution - play outside. I am locked. get me loaded. come visit me sometimes.
Super movie, good job and shots, thanks for sharing. I really like watching new and interesting places. You have an interesting channel, so I'm staying and watching. Big like, stay connected. I’m a new subscriber
Will you be doing any videos this year as it’s been some time ago since you did any.are you ok as I’m a bit worried?
Nice sharing. Have a blessed weekend.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Just a shame about the raised middle section, I have seen titanium plates with a flat bottom, but got this one because of the good reviews. £16.57 now, on Amazon Prime, with free postage. Not sure how much it is without Prime. I get Prime because I got so fed up of having to buy goods to the value of at least £20 to be able to buy something that may only be a couple of quid. The added benefit of Prime Video maybe ok if you’re a teenager 😂🤣, but as a discerning film buff of 56 years young, I struggle to find anything much to watch!☹️😁
😁 I've used the titanium plate for frying a fair bit and it works okay. Where it's so thin it's a bit awkward sometimes if it's heavily loaded but that's coz I went for weight over structure! 😄 I use prime all the time. Most of the films on prime video are crap! Thanks for the comment - gave me a giggle! 😁👍
Exactly Mark - we go twang every time we walk past them. No harm in illuminating the lines. Just popping in to wish you a happy new year. Here's to many good days and some happy trails. All the best. Mark
Cómo estás! New fun stuff. Also a chiller! Your channel is improving i see. Comforting page. nice ending, nice touch!
Use small amount kapok and fatwood shavings no fail
Just wanted to say merry Christmas to you and your family and have a great day
Thanks Jason! Merry Christmas to you too.
Looked like a great short hike.
I really enjoyed that. I've not tried it yet but I will one day. In my daily pack I always carry a self seal bag with a heavy duty bin liner, 2x coffee filters plus my trangia. The intention is to do exactly as you have should the need arise. New subscriber.
Glad you enjoyed it Michaela! It was a nice day out in the woods. When I do these short day hikes in the summer I don’t carry much with me so the extra weight of the water feels like a lot. You’ll see in the comments here someone mentioned Grayl filters. I might put one of those on my Christmas list! 😄 It’s always best to be prepared and I think having the ability to boil up collected water is a good plan. The trangia combined with a metal water container is perfect for this. Thanks for subscribing! - ATB, Mark 👍
In my layman's opinion, the mooring hitch is widely misunderstood as a quick-release hitch, when its primary value is actually as an excellent friction hitch, as a superior option to a taut line hitch. Further, its friction level can easily be adjusted, and it can even be "locked" in place to prevent it from sliding on the standing end after adjusting it. It's a little gem.
Great comment! To adjust, grab the standing end and push the knot away from you. To pull the knot towards you, go to the far side of the knot and make sure you grab the part of the rope that is the continuation of the standing end, otherwise it won't slide. This is the part emerging from under the pole in the video. To lock it down, grab the other part (the part going over the top of the pole in the video) and pull the knot towards you; if you do this it will no longer be adjustable.
Do you find that the spatula is firm or floppy? Especially if you were to lift something with weight, maybe a burger or fish? Or more for eggs?
Nice 👍
Highpoint hitch ftw. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highpoint_hitch
Thanks! I’ll take a look at that! 👍
Been a bit since a video from you.. hope all is good with you..🇺🇲🤠
Yeah, I’m fine. For a while I just didn’t feel like making any vids, with all this crap that’s been going on. I’m also kind of having a re-think about the channel and what I want to put on here. Feel like I’m not sure what I’m trying to achieve. Also, I’m busy with other stuff right now so not much time for filming even if I did know WTF I was going to do! 😄 Thanks for checking up on me - really appreciate that! 👊🇬🇧🤠
Chunky returns mate. As explained had a full online purge
That confused me. I thought it was a new channel so pressed the subscribe button and it unsubscribed me! 😂 I’m back subscribed now 👍
Can’t beat a coffee in the woods can you ! Just found your channel ! I’m sure I’ve seen you wandering the New Forest a few times including yesterday (3rd Sept 21) lol !
@@hikingwithrosy Ahh ok ! There was a tall guy with a brimmed hat and a shoulder bag , but I’m sure I have seen you in the past. Nice little channel , slowly working my way through your vids 👍🏻
Nice chilled out video mate , it always makes you feel a lot better when you have boiled it, and the whiskey definitely helps 😀👍atb
Nice one Mark. You're right to take them precautions. There is run off from animal waste spread onto the land, animals out there themselves and all manner of pesticides. Wow, a dangerous or dangerous water. I reckon the ambience was good. Definitely makes a difference to a coffee. Mark
Thanks Mark. Yeah I think if you’re up in the hills somewhere where there’s not much apart from the odd sheep and the water’s coming out the rock it should be fine but everywhere else you have to be mindful of what’s going on around you. I wouldn’t drink water out of streams around here often but it feels good to do it sometimes, get a bit closer to local nature. ATB Mate 👍
Good to see you back, lovely bit of filtering 😊👍
Thanks 😂 I always try my best! 😄👍
Healthy success always
Interesting topic! Water is heavy as you mentioned and it's an easy trade if your able to source and purify it on your own. Heavy on the whiskey is the key 😂🥃👍
I've a Sawyer squeeze and a Grayl. The former is slow but sure but if cold weather not so good on the fingers, the latter is bulkier but super quick and easy and my go to preference when on Dartmoor for example. To be honest on a day bimble the most convenient for me is a flask...less faff/kit. I'm still a bit twitchy taking water from low level ground for all the reasons you point out; and even from the New Forest sources but your method seems to work for you. Good effort, cheers.
Nice to see you upload again
Yay! I was just thinking the other day that we hadn't heard from you in a while. Hope the summer's treating you well? Too true, the addition of bourbon will kill off more germs.....and if you add enough bourbon, you stop caring about the ones that don't get killed off🥃😊‼️. SAS survival straw or similar filter apparatus means you could drink lower River Thames water ( not brave enough to drink Ganges or the Chao Praya in Bangkok though)🤠👍. Nobody likes pooing themselves to death, I reckon filter & boil is the go. Military water purification tablets makes it taste like bleachy, swimming pool water 😱.
I dont partake in alcohol so I feel a bit left out...sniff. But the boiling I like. I keep hearing some viruses are not eradicated by boiling. What is a concerned outdoors-person to do I wonder. Thanks once again for your hard work creating a video.
10 min to boil? well thats not too bad! btw coming from Beth channel to here!
Yes, I am happy with 10 minutes. There’s no rush, after all. Beth has a great channel, one of me favourites! Thanks for coming over to visit my channel! 😊👍
