- Solo trip to one of my favourite camp spots in Kahurangi National Park. Cooked some meatballs as the snow and heavy rain came down. Hope you enjoy the video. #camping #heavyrain #newzealand
i love the brown bird, so adorable.
Love hearing the rain on the tarp 🌧🏕
Yeah it’s pretty nice to chill out under cover away in the bush. Sucks I didnt get a fire going though that’s the ultimate set up
I’m going to have to stop watching your videos before bed. When you make your food it always makes me so hungry 😮😂😂🤣😋
Was just thinking "oh well, probably no video from Abel and Victoria this week" 😔, but no, how wrong I was. Impressed you got out in this unsettled weather. I thought that burger you cooked a while back, was epic, but those meatballs might just about surpass that! Looking forward to the roast! I'm sure it'll happen. 👍
It was worth the effort. I wasn’t to keen at first but glad I got up there. I think the burgers are a bit practical Pretty easy to prepare vs the spaghetti and meat balls. Both taste awesome even better up in the wilderness. Next video will be with Victoria hopefully unsure of the location yet. The roast will be a challenge lol but I have said I’ll do it now so no going back.
That meal will hit all the right places 👍👍especially in this weather enjoy enjoy🤗🤗
Just finished a raining camping trip. It was lovely and atmospheric but hard to get warm once you get soaked. Here on the Pacific Northwest there is heavy fog too which just dampens the sleeping bag. Guess you just have to embrase
the moisture lol.
This makes me feel like I'm watching lord of the rings. The land scape, the accent and the hair style would fit perfectly into the movies!
Lol thanks.
@@AbelandVictoria subscribed for the meat balls - bloody good effort!
The food looks delicious!
Wow I wish I was there with you that looks delicious
I like the go-pro … great video thank you ! I really enjoyed it ! Thank you!
It definitely has its place and benefits over a larger set up. Thanks for tuning in 👍
Hi. BEAUTIFUL. SCENERIES. LANDSCAPE. AWESOME. HIKING. CAMPING. LIKE. LIKE. TENT.
Great video! I love seeing different camp and cooking setups. Might have to get one of them Jetboil pots for mine.
Also would be interesting to see a gear list for things you use in each video if that would be possible in the future please?
Hey thanks for tuning in. The jet boil pot is a winner and the pocket rocket 2 stove just fits perfect into the indentations on the pot.
I’ll write up a gear list and put on the description later. 👍
@@AbelandVictoria Great, nice one thank you! 👍🏻
You are so funny! some of the things you say 😂👍 and entertaining. your spaghetti and meat balls look delicious .
Stumbled across your vids, subbed, thx for bringing us along 😀
Cool thanks for the support appreciate it
Looks like a great trip! My 5 year old daughter loved watching too and can't wait for her next tramp.
Haha that’s cool. It was great relaxing and listing to the rain on the tarp. Next trip will be with Victoria should be fun not sure where we will be going yet.
Your camp set up was delightful, especially with your chair and the gourmet meal. The sound is better on your main camera but compared to a lot of videos out there the quality is very good and are always a pleasure to watch. I love tarp and bivvy bush camp which is very similar to your set up and like you I don't get out of my bag until I have fed my caffeine addiction listening to the dawn chorus. Look forward to the next video.
Having the tarp set up with the chair and rain is rather glorious. Yeah using the full frame camera is worth it captures so much more detail especially in low light situations. How do you brew coffee when in the bush? I am tempted to get aeropress apparently they are awesome.
I use the msr mug mate with ground coffee. I feel it may not be up to your standard but I find it makes a reasonable brew and is very light and indistructable. It pairs with my favourite mug (been using it for 45 years) beautifully. I do agree the presses do seem to be the way to go to improve the brew. Maybe one day!
@@nickransom9769 I’m sure the mug mate makes a good cup wouldn’t be much different to a plunger I suppose. The v60 I use sometimes is a nice process and gives a clean tasting brew but sometime it can be a bit of a pain to fiddle around with.
“Love Your Videos.”👍🏽
Thanks!
You have mentioned coffee in most of your videos and how you like a specific coffee and such. Wow! I didnt know your home setup was that amazing! Good for you brother!
I have a pretty intense coffee addiction lol
Great overnight trip! A bit challenging this time with the weather and The Weka Threat haha, here in NorCal we have to worry about coyotes, bears, and snakes. Love how you prioritize good food and bev on your trips too, more fresh cooking segments would be great so long as it doesn't add too much pack weight and sacrifice your experience 👍
Hmm I’d rather weka then snakes bear and coyotes any day lol. It nice to mix it up and do some cooking from time to time. It’s coming into summer tho which makes it a bit hard to keep things cold. Wouldn’t guess from this trip though unexpectedly cold.
I thought Victoria would be with you
Nice video, fot a single night, i allways cut the onions garlic tomato herbs mushrooms up in a seal bag. Saves time. But yours still looks good. All you need is a hip flask Of green ginger wine.
Tony from AB Camping suggested your channel. I love it and love the Weka's they are an untapped resource on your channel. Really funny wee birds. Keep up the good work mate and most of all enjoy your work.
Hey thanks for tuning in. The weka cause a lot of stress lol they are aggressive. Steal things from the tent run off with the food. They are entertaining though.
The Go Pro is doing a great job. Love the rock shelters ❤
With the 1p tent, do you store your pack inside; or under the fly for the wekas to peck at??
Yeah one of my favourite camp spots
I put the pack under the fly and try and keep everything safe inside it. I need to be constantly aware of the weka movement though. I find in more remote places the weka are nowhere near as aggressive as say the rock shelters
HEY......YOU ARE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE ROOOOOAD! New Zealand is such a beautiful country. It has been on my bucket list to fly fish New Zealand. I have little 3 inch collapsible silicon funnel that would work great at catching water. I will have to remember that. Although, at 76 years old, I only car camp now, so water is never an issue. I did a search for tarp pitching over tents and your video came up. Enjoyed the stay and subbed. BTW...that bird wouldn't last a day in Louisiana. Someone would have it in a gumbo with a quickness.
amazing :)
Awesome
I'd definitely like to see the full roast chicken in the bush😃 subbed ages ago. Cool to see some good kiwi tramping, camping content. Keep up the great content👍. Never tried the jarra dark I'll have to give it crack. I did used to often get a hot choc hazelnut mix they had years ago which was a good mix, unsure if they still sell it, haven't looked.
Haha a full roast will be the ultimate challenge. Definitely give the jarrah darks a go if you can.
Your big camera is da best by far!!
Yeah not really any comparison is there.
@@AbelandVictoria No the gopro is no where near. The Sony brings your trip alive! Thank you for another Bush break vid.
The weather is weird at present, here on the Otago coast we've had an entire week of misty drizzle but warm, now it's just raining.
Where's summer??
@@christophermarshall527 I might get a mini umbrella attachment for the camera. It’s weather sealed but heavy persistent rain would be an issue I think. In nelson it’s been rather warm and dry all the weather getting stuck on the ranges as usual. I think switch to summer will happen soon and then we all complain it’s to hot lol.
@@AbelandVictoria yeah I've got a plastic cover for the camera but it doesn't work that well and the lens filter still gets wet. An umbrella would be better..
Would you mind explaining more on your experience with the Nemo Elite Hornet 2p? I was surprised to see you're camping with the S2S and ask primarily as I am debating between the Nemo and the MSR Hubba Hubba sacrificing the extra weight for comfort. I've yet to see anyone show where they store their pack when backpacking with the Nemo Hornet. All the same, great content sir and hope ye keep it up!
I have the 1p version of the hornet with the new osmo fabric. I have used the tent in a few videos if you haven’t seen. Main things I would say is the tent is obviously very light weight for a tent with a side door poles and double walled. It seems very well built and thought out. Easy to pitch and I feel it’s roomy enough for me ( I’m 90kg 185cm tall ). The osmo fabric is great doesn’t sag like sil nylon. Over all great tent so far pack down very very small in the pack. Obviously being so light weight you need to be careful with the material.
Thanks for the awesome video. We're having meatballs for dinner tomorrow night 🙂
Try adding some mustard into the meatball. Elevates the dish
Looks familiar... 👍
Haha yes. I went up mole tops awhile ago and down Jameson ridge. It was cool to see your regular spot. Really nice up there.
G'day. Dude those Weka look really vicious., don't take any chances just for us. Drop bears and Bunyip's are nothing by comparison. Loved the dunny roll in the background .
Lol. Don’t worry about me mate.
My teenage boys call wekas budget chickens lol. There are so many up mt Arthur! Great place to camp though.
The jarrah dark hot chocs are the best to take with you on a tramp!
The weka seem to be undergoing rapid evolution. Their behaviour is becoming increasingly aggressive and they are lager then I remember them. Maybe doc should have a weak culling weekend every now and then lol
@@AbelandVictoria my dad lives in the pearse valley (next valley up from Mt Arthur) and his dog does her own control up there lol. They are becoming a pest.
@@karentomlinson8439 haha nice
Awesome! 16 kg pack - man thats some weight...Im pretty sure I started my hike the day after you - the weather got better: started at Flora carpark also, then made the mistake of starting with an attempted climb of lodestone...The top was really steep and the trail got sketchy at the top...anyway that set me back 2.5 hr to get to Flora Hut vs 30 min the usual route...after that made it to balloon hut by quite late...previous night was O/N rough ferry crossing so was shattered but made fire and woke up to screeching of what Friends of Flora guy I met later could have been kiwi (2 have been introduced around there - either that or Kea or Kaka - regardless, super cool. Day 2 around Lake Peel over to Cobb then up to Gridirn hUtt for second night. Slept outside under the overhang - really loud but way cool. That night it rained but by morning OK. Next day up to Mt Arthur - speaking of Wekas - A Weka pulled my entire snack bag out of my bag and into the bush. Had to rush into the bush to get it back. Met in total 5 Friends of Flora guys that are doing amazing work - a lot of them pretty old but loving their work with a real passion. One group were going in for 6 days - big respect to them...Highlight though was the isolation at Balloon Hutt night and morning....But I got my estimation of the terrain wrong - there is some real tough vertical outthere...:)...Had the most fulfulling beer in Motueka the next day - local beer that uses local hops. So dude - thanks for your great videos and the inspiration - there are so many more awesome trips out there....keep up the good work!!
Sounds like a nice trip. Pretty decent days hiking getting up loadstone then out to ballon hut. Ballon hut is a awesome spot. Kiwi are noisey in the night In the cob valley I regularly hear them screaming . Did you go on the bullock track back around to the rock shelters? Can never underestimate the weka they are ruthless up there. Friends of Cobb to fantastic work I have meet some of them of my trips. Under appreciated what they do for the area. Pretty cool you got to see all the area first hand for yourself next Id recommended up mt Owen area and the Wangapeka I’ll be heading that way soon I think.
@@AbelandVictoria yeah I took the bullock track back around about 1/3 up the dam road. Parts of that trail get so very green and lush…met a mountain goat around there on the trail… we looked at each other for about a minute…priceless moment. One regret was not going further into Cobb - had been as far as Chaffey hut before - no worries though - I think when the weather settles many more areas will be accessible…

@@grantforman3003 I haven’t done the section past lake peel and back up to the rock shelter. Must do it sometime it’s so nice down by that river.
great video, id be interested in a video about the different cameras you use. if you could of got a fire going would you have put it under your tarp? or just on the edge of it ?
Thanks. Yeah I was thinking of doing a quick video going over the camera gear and other bits and pieces I use to film.
I Prbably would have the fire under the tarp. I had it set pretty high so would be safe todo so.
Might have missed the elephant in the room but haven’t seen Victoria in months. None of my business really but it is still the name of your channel.
She’s pregnant and camping in storms on mountains isn’t wise currently
Good news, congratulations!
love the videos, I brought a gopro for the sole purpose of walking and talking (has Rode mic) but you cant beat a proper camera
Thanks man. Having an external mic for the go pro would be way better. I think a slightly wider lens then my 20mm I used on this vid would be better. The ultra wide look of go pro is good for a lot of situations.
nice bro
That’s awesome you make your own coffee ☕️👌🏽 , do you sell it ? Have you got your own company n brand to sell
What are the dimensions of your tarp? Thx
Hey mate, great vid. What size is the tarp?
Thanks. It’s a 3x3. Seems plenty big
Hi. LIKE. LIKE. LIKE. SNOW. &. RAIN.
Any standing dead tree is perfectly dry firewood even in a downpour. Rain jacket and pants a must.
Yeah not much close around that spot anymore
I live USA, Ohio, Wooster. Almost perfect center. It gets -10 the most coldest average every few years
Hello, Tony from ABCamping sent me to your channel
Hey thanks for stopping by. Tony is a veteran we are still learning but love going out on trips and hope to always improve our vids
mhhh rain
Just found you and given all the stuff you carried in, i bet your house is 50 feet off camera. Add some umph energy in my opinion. Seem like a nice dude so hope my next one i watch is different
Lol it’s about a 3 hour walk into this location
Привет Абель🖐 Классное видео. Ты специально выходишь в дождь?))) Лайк и подписка от ОРКА с РОССИИ🇷🇺😁
Hey yes I do some times. It’s nice listening to rain hit the tarp. Appreciate the support 😀
From the US, here. Had to look up Weka since they seem to be such a pest.
Hey. Welcome to nz. Weka are native birds and protected but they are becoming a problem.
What brand of quilt were you using?
Ugq bandit. Really good product
@@AbelandVictoria thanks so much! Really enjoying your videos, considering purchasing the Big Agnes Expedition tent that I see you guys use a fair amount and in some lousy conditions. Especially like your fire collecting technique! Keep up the hard work!
@@samswain1162 thanks. Yeah it’s a cool tent. We have really enjoyed it so far.
Hi. LIKE. LIKE. LIKE. DINNER.
Is tarp 3x3 m
Yea
Nothing says priorities like an espresso machine that cost 30% of your car!
Lol not 30 percent
@@AbelandVictoria I have a similar one, great video!
go pro is stable but not as clear and sharp as the big camera.
The tarp was a useful addition.
Great for a relaxing rain camp
I sent you a Google, check out these wool socks. Super thick top calf. Your latest video. Comments. I got hicking shoes, 2 pairs then socks.
