Supberb video Darach l enjoyed it very much, as someone who suffers badly from mental health problems this kind of video just calms me down, l am also suffering and l do mean suffering from self believe. l lived in the same Flat in Aberdeen for 26 years and for the last 18 months l haven't been able to function at all, it got so bad l did some mad things really stupid things too embarrassing to mention there was so so many. Just in the last 3 days l decided l couldn't take it anymore so l decided to just go to Inverurie to get away from what l consider the madness that Aberdeen has become. l tried asking a local Newton Dee place if l could stay there but was refused, l think due to my age, l'll be 60 on Saturday this week, but could also be because someone at Newton Dee pat a long resident, l thought l was consoling him but the look this young man , who resides at Newton Dee was something to behold. l am getting help from Support Staff, they have been a real God send, don't know what l would have done without them probably not be here to write this down. l find it really theraputic to get it off my chest, hope l haven't bored everyone to tears getting my baggage off my back
You haven't bored anyone at all, and I really appreciate your comment! When I started all this video making I didn't really think it would make an impact or that any one would watch. But over the last couple of years I've had quite a few messages saying my videos help to relax or it's like a nice escape for their mind. Never thought that would be the case but it's always nice to hear from those people and gives me encouragement to keep making them.
This is what me n the wife do noo the weans grew up go to nowhere and camp with a bottle of whisky n a wee smoke...use to take british bulldog he loved it but sadly he passed away now i live North Lanarkshire born in Shetland
Found your channel today and subscribed. My wife and I used to live in Scotland and miss it massively every day so to find your channel is like medicine for us. Looking forward to catching up on the rest of your videos.
New subscriber to your channel here. My family lineage is from Scotland. I’ve been doing a good bit of studying about Scotland and Highlanders and I’m so glad I found your channel
I thought a hot tent is over kill but then saw that its scotland...in winter. I live north of the bay of fundy but a winter trip in scotland was brutal.
This looks amazing iv been looking into hot tent camping but other than a farmer I know there is no were around here to do it. I'll have to get my bearings on the farmers land and then come up to the Highlands for a holiday.
Very nice video mate,noticed the tree you cut down which you said was dead actually was not,hence the green needles,but i would have done the same,good work mate
Hi Sam, a brilliant Hot Tent Overnighter in the dreamlike winter forest. I think your dog didn't really want to get out of the warm car at first 😂😂 I'm looking forward to more videos from you. Best regards Stefan
Hey! Thanks for watching! This is the tribe 2.0 woodstove from 3F UL Gear. It's a Chinese company and it felt like a good deal at the time but it hasn't really lasted as well as I'd hoped. Quite alot of warping and the weld on the spark arrestor inside has failed. So I wouldn't recommend not buying it but I would recommend spending a bit more for some quality if you know what I mean.
Thanks for watching Suzan! I guess I just haven't found a need for it. As you are coming in and out it tends to get wet and muddy and just becomes a hassle. I do have a small footprint under my sleep system though to protect it and keep it dry 😊
This stove is from 3F UL Gear. It's been ok but I would recommend it. It hasn't lasted very well, lots of warping. I'm hoping to buy a polmoly stove this winter 😄
Nice one mate - good to see you on the tube I gave you a shout out on my last vid ( still to be uploaded ) Keep putting them up - although a lot of work is involved . Hope the snow comes soon!! Atb 👍🏽
Thanks so much for watching Dave and for the shout out, I'll look forward to watching. It is a lot of work and I have much respect for you guys that have been doing for sometime but I do enjoy being creative too! Cheers!
Just starting to watch your posts as you mix bushcraft and hiking, which I both love, especially in Sweden. Only camped at the Höga Kusten, such an amazing place. What sort of mat are you using for starting your fire? Enjoy creating your posts, I’ll continue watching them!
Awesome vid. Can I ask, how much weight are you carrying? I’m guessing quite a bit with the stove etc which is what puts me off buying this kind of setup for multi day hikes, but it also looked like you trekked for quite a while with it all to your chosen site so maybe not as heavy as it looks?
Hi Alex, thanks for watching. I think I was carrying about 13kg here which is everything apart from food. I didn't actually walk too far just a couple of km. Yeah I'm not sure I would go for this setup for multiple days on the move but it is entirely possible. I guess if I was somewhere with actual winter I might reconsider but not worth it in the UK. But I supposed if I was somewhere with a proper winter I would probably be able to use a sledge for gear 👍

Would definitely recommend it Dave!
Thank you for this Video.
Thank you for watching 😁
Hello Sam!
Welcome to RUclips! A great overnighter in the best weather!
Greetings
Tobi
Hi Tobi, thanks so much for watching! :)
The dog is looking out at the cold wet snow and thinking how come we never get to do tenting videos in Fiji or Tahiti ??
😂 don't think either of us would handle the heat very well
Nice video, thank you.
Thanks for watching Ian 👍
California, this is going to be sooooio nice!
😁👍
Great video I enjoyed this . I want to do exactly what your doing. It looks so peacefull.
Thanks Robbie, you should try it if you can 😄👍
Very nice video mate,noticed the tree you cut down which you said was dead actually was not,hence the green needles,but i would have done the same,good work mate
I can assure you it was very much dead. The greenish colour you can see is the lichen on the branches. Thanks for watching 👍
Nice wee video. It looked lovely and peaceful. 👍
Thanks so much for watching , appreciate it!
Highlands woodsman good video
Thank you 😁
Brilliant video! Great wee set up you had going on there, can I ask where you bought that stove?
Thanks for watching Dario, the stove is from 3F UL Gear 👍
Really enjoyed your adventure. From a very hot +40c Perth West Australia
Thanks so much for watching Catherine! I've never experienced weather that hot 😁
Nice video x

Great overnighter and video. Looked very relaxing.
Many thanks for watching Jeff 👍
Hi Sam, a brilliant Hot Tent Overnighter in the dreamlike winter forest.

I'm looking forward to more videos from you.
Best regards Stefan

@@HighlandWoodsman 😂😂
Beautiful country
Thanks Steve 😁👍
Hey mate saw your video, loved it...where did you get your pack down wood burner? That bit of kit looks great...cheers.

@@HighlandWoodsman apreciate you getting back to me thank you fir the info.
Love this video. Quick question: why do you not lay a tarp down on the ground inside the tent?
Thanks for watching Suzan! I guess I just haven't found a need for it. As you are coming in and out it tends to get wet and muddy and just becomes a hassle. I do have a small footprint under my sleep system though to protect it and keep it dry 😊
Great video found you through instagram two good setups nice food looking forward to seeing more video's new subscriber atvb jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Thanks so much for subscribing and watching Jimmy, really appreciate it. Have a good weekend 😁👍
Awesome vid, absolutely fantastic. But I was wondering what the name of that foldable wood stove you used in your tent. Love the channel btw
Thanks so much for watching! The stove is the Folding Tribe Wood Stove 2.0 from 3F UL Gear 😁👍
Great video... refreshing! Which stove do you use?
This stove is from 3F UL Gear. It's been ok but I would recommend it. It hasn't lasted very well, lots of warping. I'm hoping to buy a polmoly stove this winter 😄
Thanks for responding!

Thanks again 😄 the mat I'm using is a little helper from Hultsfors. Works really well especially in wet weather!

Awsome Adventure Bro🤯🤯🤯
Thanks for watching 😁👍
Looks brilliant what tent do you have mate ?
Thanks for watching! This is the SmokeyHut from OneTigris 👍
Finally...a chopping block!
I always listen to customer feedback 😂
Is this a good tent? I have no idea which one to get. Might make a tipi from cheap tarps
It's not a bad tent for the price but it does suffer with condensation as the vents aren't the best especially when used as a hot tent.
Hello Sam my friend a very successful Walden time 🌲🔥🏕 Greetings Chris 👊
Thanks so much for watching Chris! 😀👍
Great channel, really enjoying your videos. Is that the ridgeline balistic hoodie you are wearing?
Thanks so much Rory. It's definitely Ridgeline 😄 Ballistic Hoodie sounds right but I can't quite remember sorry.
❤
😁👍
did you give the dog any steak?
Yes he gets plenty of treats when we are out 😄👍
What tent is that? It’s not on your gear list
Hi this is the Smokey Hut from OneTigris but they don't appear to make them any more.
