    Great work on the filming and editing. Always enjoy your posts. Glad the pack frame is working out. Since I love my hammocks, I made to hard choice to invest in a down under and top quilt a few years back.Super light, super expensive, and you need to baby them. The upsides are no cold spots and very compressible. Paddling in that area would be fantastic. Thanks, again. Cheers!

    • @SandybackOutdoors
      @SandybackOutdoors  3 года назад

      Thank you so much my friend. I always appreciate your comments and support. The down under and top quilts sound like a really solid investment and could be a consideration for sometime in the future. The Loch would be a great place to paddle and I'll definitely be going back there with the packraft. Many thanks again. Take care. Atb, J 👍.

    Oh boy, now that is my type of camping 👌 your pitch had everything.
    A woodland for shelter, access to water, peace and quiet, great views, you couldn't ask for more👍
    Do live close to that area? It's a long old drive from South Wales for me. A winter camp would look awesome there👌
    Take it easy J atb Taff 🤠👊

      @SandybackOutdoors  3 года назад +1

      Hey Taff, it really does have it all and your right, it would make for an amazing winter camp. It was a 5 hour drive from where I live but it was totally worth it and I'll definitely be going back again - maybe in the winter, now that you've pitched the idea to me 😉. Cheers Taff. I hope that you are keeping well my friend. Atb, J 👍.

    Cracking video Jason, liked the hike in and the pack. Weather was carp but thats Scotland hey lol. I am to old, to tall and to broken for hammocks, unless they are strung between two palm trees in the BVI with rum in hand lol. The scenery was breathtaking, what a spot. Keep it up mate, this type of content deserves a lot more subs and views. It will get there, no doubt about it.

I hope that your recovery is still going well pal and swinging between two palm trees with a glass of rum sounds like a pretty damn good idea to me 👍.

    Thanks Jason, lovely video. Stunning spot, what was it that first drew your attention to it?, I'd not heard of it so from my point of view really nice to see. Good find with that low shelter that had already been made, looked really snug.

    • @SandybackOutdoors
      @SandybackOutdoors  3 года назад +1

      Hi Chris, I've been aware of the area for quite a long time now but often overlooked it when I've been wild camping in Scotland. Watched a couple of vids on the area, which were always about the south side of the loch and I was already sold. I knew that it was a location that I wanted to explore more. You would absolutely love it mate. So peaceful and quiet. It's also an official dark sky park, so would be amazing for some night time photography also. Unfortunately on this occasion, the weather gods were not in my favour but it was still an incredible trip and I'll look forward to going back again. Many thanks as always Chris for your support, I really do appreciate it buddy. Take care. Atb, J 👍.

    What a lovely location albeit, overcast. I bet you were wishing you could have pulled out a fresh Trout from that Loch.
    As is often said, ''Travel Light, Freeze at Night''. Personally, I'm not so convinced by the warmth factor of one single Wool Blanket as even in Barracks, I was issued with 3 plus sheets for my foam mattress bed. Together with the silk liner (is it real silk or nylon silk?) a BIVI, an inflatable mattress and the wool blanket, I'd still probably be chilly, but packing anything more adds bulk and weight.
    Using the same pack(s), bedroll etc. what would you change for the next camp before winter sets in fully?

    • @SandybackOutdoors
      @SandybackOutdoors  3 года назад +1

      Hi Robert, yeah a catch and cook would have been great. Something that I've not done for a long time now but I'm sure I'll end up doing it again in the future. The silk liner says pure silk on the label and made in New Zealand. A great little addition to any sleep system imo. My first platoon Sergeant in battalion was a "travel light, freeze at night" type of guy. Not heard that saying for a long time. It brought back some great memories. Cheers. I've recently acquired an unissued M90 DA bivvy bag. So going forward I'd probably pair that with my winter bag, silk liner and inflatable pad for some ground dwelling. I hope that you are keeping well mukka in these crazy times. Until next time, take care and I'll look forward to catching up with you again soon. Atb, J 👍.

    It appears to me that you really are fond of bacon for several videos that you eat and you’re always eating it. But you’re doing a great job I’m glad you started doing RUclips. Keep up the good work I know you’re getting a lot of fans from American now.

      Ah! Phillip, you got me 😊. I do indeed like my bacon. I think that it's a fantastic camping food. Easy to pack, cook and it tastes great. In fact a Sandyback is a breed of pig from my hometown here in the UK. I really enjoy getting comments from the US. You guys really know your stuff. Respect.
