- Join me on a hike to a secluded beach along the Jurassic Coast. It was a bit of a slog to get here but boy was it worth it. Hope you enjoy!
Towards the end of this video I also include an unedited section on how I pack my bag. Please feel free to skip this section if you’d like. I just wanted to include it to address any questions on how I fit everything into my 45L pack.
Anyone interested in seeing more pictures from this trip or my other daily hikes please consider checking me out on Instagram @goin.solo

An absolute master class on cooking the pizza’s. Some superb drone shots of this spectacular piece of our coastline. I’m not sure about the sand hoppers and the noise they were making under the ground sheet, I don’t think I could put up with that at all. Well done for sticking that out.I think your content has everything in there especially your culinary skills.
Thanks! Such an easy way to make a really tasty pizza! I was happy the weather cooperated enough on this camp that I could take the drone up. It’s always really nice to see my camp spots from a different perspective. The sand hoppers were interesting but wow I didn’t expect to see so many. Luckily as long as I kept the light off they would quiet down. Really appreciate you taking the time to comment! ATB
I really like your channel
I am 70. I used to do all you do
Its so enjoyable
Thank you for the memory
Thank you! Part of the reason I started this channel is so that I will one day I will be able to look back at these trips 👍. Really makes me happy to know that others enjoy watching them as well! Appreciate the comment!
Genius! Never seen a pizza cooked like that before but it looked amazing 🍺🍕
It works really well. Always good if you’re craving pizza and you don’t have an oven nearby! 😀👍 Hope you two have a great weekend. ATB
Awesome, as always.
Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures 😀
You packed that bag like the pro that you are. I bet you could have still put more in the bag.
Keep adventuring
God Bless you and your family.
😀👍 lots of practice packing different gear into this bag over the year! Really appreciate the comments! Hope you have a nice weekend. ATB
52 years in the backcountry, and it never occurred to me to carry a portable alcohol campfire. Genius. Thanks.
😀 it’s not the largest campfire but it was enough to give you that feeling of sitting by one 👍
Excellent video. You can’t beat camping on the Jurassic coast. It’s such a wonderful place.❤
Thank you! It’s such a beautiful area. I enjoying camping in the Lakes and Snowdonia but it’s always really nice getting to listen the the sea in the evenings. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. ATB
I've been looking forward to this camping video, Thank you for taking the time to teach and show us your gear and knowledge
😀👍 Hope you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment! All the best
Gotta say whoever customized that campspot for you did an amazing job
It’s such a beautiful area 👍. Thanks for watching!
Great video, I really enjoyed it, the sound of the waves was so relaxing 😊 Love the tent 🏕
It was really nice to fall asleep to the sounds of the waves 👍. Appreciate the comment! ATB
Brilliant video! Pizza looks awesome and a perfect location. Can’t beat a coastal camp 👌 Nice to see the Unna in action and looking forward to seeing it feature in future video’s 😀👍
Thanks! Pizza with a view of the sea and the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks is pretty hard to beat! I really love coming to this area. The Unna was fantastic. It’s such a unique design. I’m really loving the space inside and the fact that you can open up the entire side in the evenings is just the icing on the cake. Definitely looking forward to using it more 👍. Appreciate the comment!
Despite those annoying bugs and difficult trail that gave you a hard time.. it was all worth it. That was amazing camp spot you got there. Beautiful beach beside the hill. The imagery was so stunning to see. Btw nice new tent setup there also thanks a lot for the clip!! Will wait for the next camp 😊
Thanks! Definitely wasn’t expecting the hike to a spider fest 😂. I probably would not have minded as much if I hadn’t just been dealing with so many bites from some other critter. But yes it was completely worth it! It’s such a nice secluded spot on a beautiful beach. Glad you enjoyed it. Really appreciate you taking the time to comment!
I love that tent and being able to see out while its raining is really nice. Loved your reverse pizza and the pan and the picturesque water. Always impressed with your using two stove types.
It’s a really great feature. I can do it with the Soulo and Nammatj as well but the viewable space isn’t quiet as large as this. It definitely made for a cozy set up during that quick shower that passed by. You should try the pizza technique. Works so well 👍. I was definitely glad I brought the xboil along. It was nice being able to sit by a flame and listen to the waves. Really appreciate the comment! Hope you have nice weekend. All the best 😀
I’ve been looking forward to this. Just in time as a post dinner dessert 👍
😀👍 hope you enjoy!
Your videos never fail to be excellent
Too kind Bob! I appreciate your continued support buddy 😀🙏. Hope you have a great weekend!
Simply peaceful...Your hardwork in recording this video for us despite of insects,bugs and all is really appreciable..❤🎉..waiting for ur next camp eagerly..😊
Than you! Despite the critters, it’s always nice to spend a peaceful night at the coast. Really appreciate the support! ATB
That was a damn fine video. Fantastic location. Worth the effort for you and us the viewers.
Thank you.
Thank you so much! It’s definitely really nice to have a bit of the coast line all to yourself. Appreciate you taking the time to comment!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors My pleasure.
Thank you for sharing and experiencing a dream I have had for years.
Homesick for a place I've never been. ❤
Camping by the sea is special. The sounds of the waves. The smell. You should definitely do it at some point. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
Love your videos they really help me relax, thank you.
Really happy to hear that! This was a particularly relaxing camp 👍.
Wow the landscapes there are truly amazing! Such vibrant colors! Very enjoyable share my friend!
Thank you! It is a very pretty area. As you travel down the coast the cliff color changes as well. Appreciate you taking the time to comment!
That pizza technique is actually genius! Ill be doing that next time i go out for sure, amazing vid btw
Thank you! Definitely an easy way to make a quick pizza while camping 👍. Thanks for the comment!
Another great vlog pal 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks! I always really enjoy coming to this coastline 👍. Hope you have a nice weekend!
Love long videos dude!! Also good to have you back after summer break
Thanks man! It was a nice break but good to be back making videos 👍
Beautiful spot right by the water. The bugs, however, are brutal, not sure I would think it was worthwhile camping there. You seem able to cope with them. Liked the tent. Really liked the look of those pizzas. Looking forward to your next camp.
Yeah the bugs were a bit annoying. I didn’t mind the stuff on the beach (the little jumping crustaceans were kind of interesting) but catching a spider to the face every few feet on the hike was pretty brutal 😂. I highly recommend giving the pizzas a try. Such an easy tasty meal to make while out camping👍. Really appreciate you taking the time to comment! ATB
Perfect spot on that part of the coast. I'll try to get there for a couple of days next year.
👍 Beautiful area. Nice a quiet
Congrats with a new awesome tent! I have started to love free standing tents, we have a Big Agnes. It must have been so relaxing to sit and watch the ocean eating Pizza! Very nice video, enjoyed it very much! Have a great weekend 🤠
Thanks! I’m really enjoying its design. Freestanding tent’s definitely have there perks, especially when you’re camping in a spot like this. Big Agnes is a solid tent. I have the old BA Copper Spur HV UL 2 before they updated the doors. It saw many adventures back when I lived in the states. It was definitely a nice spot to sit and have dinner. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. All the best buddy!
Great camp Pizza looked delicious.Superb drone footage.
Thank you! It’s nice to get weather that allows me to fly the drone 👍
Excellent! Those spiders and bugs made me all itchy even while sitting in the comfort of my living room. Great food as always. Thanks for sharing.
Soooooo many spiders on that path. I couldn’t go 2 feet without swiping one out of the way. Got many right to the face as well 😆. Thanks for watching!
I was just thinking, when is he dropping another video? The camping Gods responded!
😂👍🙏 Hope you enjoy watching. It was a fun trip!
I love your videos. The cinematography is great and so is your narration. It's just like I am there.
That’s exactly what I’m going for with these video 👍. Trying to share my entire experience on these trips. Really appreciate the comment! ATB
That trail to the beach is a good black berry sport.
Nice trail snacks 👍😀
Another great video friend! A good meal in a wonderful place! Keep up the great work, 🤠🙏🏻
Thank you! It was a really nice change of scenery!
Glad to see you hank your guy lines - we always do!
It’s a good habit 👍. Appreciate the comment!
Love the pizza idea! Planning a wild camp tomorrow with my son and struggling for food we can both eat. This is perfect! Great video
Pizza is always a winner with kids! Easy for them to easily add toppings to the skillet as well. Appreciate the comment. Hope you two have a fun camp!
Beautiful ❤ very nicely created
Thank you! It was a really nice trip 👍
Great trip! I will use the light attracting bug trick for sure.
Thanks! Works well 👍. Hope you have a nice weekend!
Another great film GS. Love the new Unna. On my last camp, I took my Nallo 4 GT and a fake hellinox chair which all fitted inside my 48L Osprey no problem. Plus I had a Rab Ascent 700 bag. It is surprising what you can fit in if you pack them well. Loved the pizzas too. ATB Jiffy 👍
Thanks Jiffy. I’m definitely really enjoying the simplicity of the Unna. I still really need to purchase a set of 10mm poles though because I’m not quite sure how it will do in the wind. I’d like to have that bit of extra insurance. I agree you can definitely fit a surprising amount into a smaller bag which is really nice because I prefer smaller packs! ATB
I've been waiting on your video. I'm excited.
I've been binge watching these for the last 3 hours haha
😀🙏 Hope you enjoy!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors I'm really looking forward to see how you pack. I definitely need some pointers in that department.
@@LexyThomas134 he's definitely one of the best camping channels and doesn't have ads popping up.
@@NKdidit.24 hopefully you find it helpful! I just kind of go over the order of how I put things in the pack as I’m doing it. I didn’t want to move the camera and edit that footage because I wanted to make sure those that have cast doubt that everything can fit in a 45L pack can’t excuse me of taking anything out 😂. I may do a video in the future showing a winter kit load out where I do cut to different angles so I can show you inside the pack where everything‘s being placed 👍
That same knife nearly cut my finger off the beginning of summer camping. It’s sharp
Yeah you definitely gotta be really careful with a serrated knife. I’ve cut myself with others. Doesn’t take much force. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Superb overnight adventure and top food as always. Those pans look excellent! Hope the bites have cleared up now! Atb
Thanks man! Summit skillet is definitely a favorite 👍. All good now on the bite front! ATB
i can see you know how to cook! props, nice work ! Video , cooking scenery nice job !
Thanks! I do enjoy cooking while at camp 👍
Great video again. I like the reversed shot at 18:22!
Good eye 👍. I thought the shot looked better in reverse 😀. Thank you for watching another! Hope you’re having a great weekend!
The drone footage was really cool, thanks for inviting us along…….
Thanks! It’s always fun to see the places I camp from a different vantage point with the drone. Glad you enjoyed it! Have a great weekend 😀
Cracking video as always mate! Keep them coming! I get a buzz when these pop on 🙈
😀👍 Thank you! Really appreciate the continued support!
So, us swedes are weird in that our pizzerias do not slice our pizzas for us (unless you ask for it, and then they look at you weird). Personally I think that's dumb, but it did result in an innovation I haven't seen elsewhere: cut your pizza using a small pair of kitchen scissors. It works unreasonably well, way better than a pizza wheel unless it's really nice and sharpened often and better than a knife too. Highly recommend throwing a pair in your kit next time you plan a pizza dinner :D
I definitely prefer my pizza cut. When traveling through Italy, most of the places I ordered pizza also did not cut the pies and you would have to ask to have it cut or get a knife. So maybe we are the weird ones for wanting it cut 😂. I first saw someone using scissors in the kitchen back in university. My Chinese friends mom would use them all the time when she was cooking for us. After that I started occasionally using them in the kitchen as well. Makes sense for cutting some items like green onions or even pizza but I still prefer using a knife. Really appreciate your comments. Hope you’re having a nice weekend!
Waiting for dinosaurs. Nice video its perfect while studying specially your rain videos.
😀👍 wish I could have found some better fossils. Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!
The quality of the Hilleberg tent is amazing.
They are incredibly well built tents! Really appreciate all the comments 🙏😀
Love your tent and none stick frying pan and pizzas look delicious 😋 too my friend. But lovely spot to pitch a tent ⛺️
Thanks, the pizzas always turn out really well when I use that pan 👍. I’m really enjoying the new tent. A perfect location to take in the view. Appreciate you taking the time to comment! ATB
New to your channel . Love it. Relaxing and soothing with great content. Thanks
Welcome to the channel! Really appreciate the support 👍
As always, another excellent video, with so much info and great advice. I’m seriously looking to get that jetboil skillet. I currently use the trangia non stick 27 and the pan isn’t as good as that. Thanks as always 🙏👍
I highly recommend this skillet. It’s one of the best nonsticks I’ve ever used. I have a couple of the trangia nonstick skillets as well. They work well enough, but they can be a bit disappointing sometimes. Especially when you compare it to this skillet. It’s also nice to use because there’s basically never any difficult clean up. I just take a paper towel and wipe the pan and that’s it. You won’t regret the purchase 👍. Appreciate the comment! All the best 😀
Lovely spot dude, I live near there and do lot's of wild camping but there's something special about a beach camp 🤟
Nice area to live! A beach camp is definitely special. Nothing like falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the waves. So relaxing! Appreciate you taking the time to comment! ATB
As Jim Stafford said- I don't like spiders and snakes.... Welcome back. Finally been doing some camping myself after them damn blood clots about killed me. Great buggy video!
Thanks! 😀👍 I don’t mind snakes but I’ve never been a fan of a spider crawling on me. Especially when you catch one right in the face while on trail. Blood clots are terrible. Glad you’re ok and able to get back out!
Love this
😀🙏 Thank you for watching!
Augh! All was going so well....the pizzas, the beer....then....ATTACK OF THE SAND FLEAS AND ROGUE 🦀!!!
😂👍 the number of sand hoppers was a bit of a surprise. But once I got them out of the tent and moved my crab friend everything was calm 👍😀
Those are little orb spiders, they don't bite and get busy spinning webs everywhere in early autumn. It's probably still midges attacking you - it can be harder to see them in the woods and before you know it you have a few days' intense itching ahead of you!
Yeah the spiders I’m not too worried about just never thrilled when I catch one right in the face 😂 every other second. Midges are no fun, I’ve been eaten alive by midges in the lakes and I never had the kind of reaction. Still not sure what it was. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!
Your Pizza idea was Spot-On! About the bugs... if you have extra room for 2 additional lights then you can place one light 4-6 ft to the front side of your tent and repeat it for the other front side. The bugs will always follow a straight line from one light to the other light leaving your main tent area nearly bug free! Of course you'll need to not use your inside light while doing this. My USMC RECON MARINES Son taught me that trick. Also helps a lot while cooking in the later evenings.
That’s a really good idea. I’ll have to try it. I’ve only ever used the single light trick, which typically works pretty well and it was able to get the little sand hoppers out of the tent, which was nice, but I’ll have to try the double light 👍. Thanks for the tip! The pizza with the sounds of the waves and that little bit of rain on the tent was a really nice way to end the day! Really taking the time to comment on each video!!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors If you are using Propane Lanterns then 6-9 ft from each one yeilds the best results. We used 9ft apart. I think it's because of the brightness factor of the glow that Propane Lanterns generate and the heat factor too. Otherwise 4-6 ft is fine. Good luck trying it. It works great for us ... we dislike those flying bugs/insects so much!
brilliant video
Thanks! Appreciate you watching 😀👍
Hi, new subscriber here.
First clicked on your last video featuring the Unna in Snowdonia.
I've just purchased the Unna because nowadays I have some mobility issues and I wanted a tent with a large door, plus plenty of internal space and headroom. Very pleased to see how it held up in the wind and I feel vindicated in choosing the Unna. I'll be upgrading to 10 mm poles as soon as they are back in stock and will also carry a couple of extra guy lines.
Enjoying your videos immensely.
Take care
I think you will enjoy the Unna. The large door is one of my favorite features. so nice to have the entire side of the tent open. It may not be as aerodynamic as some of the other Hillebergs but when properly guyed out it can handle the wind really well 👍. Really appreciate the support! Hope you have a nice weekend.
@@GoingSoloOutdoors Hello again.
Do you have any information regarding the Trekkertent Saor. It looks very similar in design to the Unna. I'm wondering if the mesh inner for the Saor, would be a suitable and cheaper alternative to the dedicated inner by Hilleberg which is very expensive.
I know it's a bit narrower but it's the height I'm concerned about. Cannot find the dimensions online anywhere.
Can you help at all please?
@@frederickridall628 I’m not sure, the only other alternative bug net I’ve seen actually used in the Unna is the Six Moons Serenity Bug Nest.
@@GoingSoloOutdoors 👍 Thanks.
@@GoingSoloOutdoors 👍 Thanks.
Ewu! Spiders and sand fleas. The crab was funny. 😅 Your food is always awesome. 👍
Thanks! 😂👍 lots of arachnids and crustaceans on this one. Appreciate you watching.
Asesores video,wow dude you have a great drone. 😃👍💪
Thanks! I’m using the DJI mini 2. It’s not the newest drone but it captures the landscape well. Appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors realy nice your video my friend.congrat for your incredible channel
Great video 👍👍
Thanks!
Ay up.
Wonderful, really enjoyed this and those pizza's looked delicious 🍕
Ay a great weekend me owd 👍🙂
Thanks man! Those pizzas are simple to make as well which is nice 👍. Appreciate you watching. Hope you have a great weekend!
I hope you can feature Hilleberg Staika someday! Even though it's a "solo" hiking/camping. 🤗 All the best! Awesome videos!!! 🥰
Maybe one day 😀. Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!
3:08; I stopped this video to take a long look at your back with all the bites.
Slow & easy is always a good pace out in the boonies when bushwhacking.
I've never pitched a tent on bedrock.
17.14; loved the drone footage
21:45; the 3-legged cannister support definitely stabilized your stove/pot.
43:01; I use the same knot to keep my guylines together.
I, for one, was interested in seeing you put everything into that relatively small capacity backpack. Mine is the ULA 2.0 Ohm 63L backpack
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.
Nice to hear from you again! The bites were pretty bad. I actually almost postponed this trip because the previous day my skin was still itching and burning everywhere. The thought of hiking with a pack wasn’t very pleasant but luckily I woke up that day feeling much much better.
You’d think pitching on these rocks wouldn’t be that comfortable but you gotta love the comfort of modern sleeping pads! Once I get the surface flat enough the pad does a fantastic job of making it just as comfortable as pitching anywhere else. Definitely need the sit pad though to sit up comfortably!
Glad you enjoyed the drone footage. It’s nice to actually have good enough weather to bring it out again! It’s great to see these places from a different vantage point!
Glad you were interested in seeing me pack the bag. I would have loved to move the camera and give a better shot of where things were being placed inside the bag but I wanted to purposefully leave this part of the video unedited. Just so those who thought fitting all this into a 45 L bag was impossible wouldn’t think I was removing items 😂. ULA makes some really nice packs 👍
Always really appreciate your thoughtful comments! All the best
Very nice my friend 🤠
Thank you. It was a nice change of scenery 👍
Great video am wondering where you got the round cutting board from. Thanks for the cooking idea
It came with a Stanley frypan cookset. It nests nicely inside the jetboil summit skillet 👍
Near where I grew up. Shore isopods can be a tad annoying; but are completely harmless - and actually rather fascinating. There are some interesting seaside spiders to be found too!
Yeah they were kinda cool. 🤣 just didn’t expect to see so many inside the tent with me. They cooperated well enough and left with the light which was good! Appreciate the comment!
Great to see you’ve uploaded again.
I have that Jetboil skillet, I will definitely be trying your pizza method.
Pity about those jumping sandflies, they’re horrible.
You definitely should! It works really well with the jetboil skillet 👍. Yeah they were a bit annoying but they cooperated well enough and followed the light out of the tent 😂. Definitely didn’t expect to see so many when I got inside the tent though. Appreciate you watching. Hope you have a great weekend!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors Can’t wait to try it, which brand of flatbread do you use?
Poltergeist sandflies will follow the light.
Enjoy your weekend too brother.
It was just a the store brand from our local Waitrose
@@GoingSoloOutdoorsGot it, thank you. Cheers. 🍻
Nice pizza! Well done!!
Thanks! Simple but tasty 👍
Superb video 👍🙂
Thank you!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors 👍
Great video, and also thank you for sharing your packing technique. I'm an experienced backpacker, but that doesn't mean that there isn't new stuff to learn!
I did most of my backpacking with a giant McHale backpack, which I still own and love, but it has one flaw (other than McHale packs being insanely expensive, especially ones made of Dyneema like mine is): it's VERY easy to overstuff it with far more gear than you need.
So I've been working to adapt to a smaller 55 liter pack which, compared to my giant McHale alpinist pack is quite small. I did get it dialed in pretty well on my last trip, but that doesn't mean that I can't dial it in better. It was still heavy though, which has a lot to do with the fact that I packed my Red and carried it up Asgard Pass.
Glad you didn’t mind watching me pack my bag 👍. I definitely prefer a smaller bag because as you said it’s just easier to overpack. Its forced me to really eliminate what I don’t need. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. Hope you have a nice New Years!
@@GoingSoloOutdoors Yeah... I want to reserve my McHale pack for alpine adventures where it's perfect, because it's so big and carries so well... on a week long Sierra Club trip in the Glacier Peak Wilderness I carried around 80 pounds in that, and it was some pretty challenging terrain with lots of elevation gain/loss daily... that was exhausting, but a part of the weight was the wooden 4x5 camera, tripod, lenses, film holders, film changing bag...
Camera gear definitely adds a ton of weight!
@@GoingSoloOutdoorsyes, though now that digital imaging has improved so much, it's also much lighter and more compact 😅
That’s the only reason I can carry enough to film my video. Still ends up being around 10lbs though. But I agree, it’s much more doable.
Thanks for the pizza, just went out last night up the bush to a lake here in Sweden and tried it out. Wunderbar, Perfekt.
That’s great to hear! 👍🍕
I appreciate you taking the time to teach . Always something to learn. What I really appreciated was the sheltered nook you chose from the wind . Especially the vegetation which would filter wind . So clearly explained how to avoid an unsafe cliff . Up to what wind speed do you feel comfortable and sleep well in a hilleberg? 30 km/ hour?
Glad you don’t mind all the talking 😀👍. I’ve had my Soulo in winds of up to 60mph. It handled it well but I didn’t get any sleep. I would never choose to be out in winds like that. If I check the forecast and the wind gusts are topping out at 50 mph, I’m completely comfortable going for a camp but anything above that it’s just better to stay home. Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment! All the best.
Great advice -plan according to potential gusts that are strong winds not gales for a good night of sleep
@@dont_delay the sudden gusts are definitely what usually destroys a tent or keeps me up at night. I always prefer a steady wind. 👍 I use an app called windy.app. It does a good job of showing the sustained wind speeds and their direction but also shows the potential wind gust speeds.
I liked the alcohol campfire. Must have some form of campfire on a camping trip.
I agree. I really enjoy this little stove 👍
Nice camp location lovely view , hate spiders 😮
Thanks! It was a nice spot. Definitely a little buggy getting there, but it was worth it! Appreciate the comment 👍
@GoingSoloOutdoors yes its surprising what catches you out on an adventure , we went to Isle of Skye climbing in 1974, and the midgies were on another level
Great video as always!! Could you cook at a push in the Unna with one corner of the inner un clipped if the weather was bad?
Absolutely! I was actually surprised how quickly and easily you can create large cooking space 👍. It would actually provide more space than my Soulo. Given that the weather here is often terrible when I go camping in the mountains, I’m sure you will get to see me cook in the Unna at some point 😆. Appreciate you watching! ATB
You should try using a red light in your tent, doesn’t attract the bugs but not great for filming😂
Love your videos
Thanks! Yeah the red is terrible while filming. I use it when the camera is off and I’m not filming 😀👍
That spider even brought snack
🤣 I did! Appreciate the comment 👍
Very nice brother
Thanks 👍😀. Appreciate the comment!
I do the same for a campfire a fire is a fire you don’t need a big fire
I agree. I’m happy with even a small flame 🔥. Creates such a nice atmosphere!
Unna or Allak 2? This was a great video, cool tent. Now I have to decide. Literally buying an allak in the morning and this pops up in my feed.
The Allak 2 will be definitely be heavier (I believe 2lbs more) but its a true two person tent so it will have more room inside, have two large vestibules, and will be more stable in the wind. It really just depends on if you can deal with the extra weigh. You can’t go wrong with a Hilleberg so whatever you decide you will be happy 😀👍. I wouldn’t let a video you’ve just seen sway you from a decision you’ve already made. Just enjoy your tent ⛺️. All the best!
Im not an outdoorsy person so not surprising the spiders freaked me out and also the crabs and the bugs inside the tent, so this wasn't the most enjoyable for me. However watching the pizza making was totally amazing and the video still gets a 👍.
There are definitely extra challenges to camping in the warmer months. I am definitely not a fan of spiders to the face on trail 😅. It’s a really fun way to make pizzas at camp. My kids enjoy it because they can just throw things in the pan 👍. Appreciate another comment. It really helps the videos!
♡
😀❤️
Can I ask where you got your round chopping board from that fits perfectly inside the jet boil skillet
I got it with the Stanley fry pan cookset set 👍
Hi there. Love your videos! Very good. I have some of the same gear as you, love my Unna, plus Trangia, and Jetboil stuff. Excuse the boring question, but can I ask what brand, or where you got that chopping board that fits the Summit Skillet? Would love it to try that pizza technique. Thanks.
It comes with the Stanley all in one fry pan set 👍. Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!
This is my home coast line and the drone shots are beautiful...but not as beautiful as that pizza! 🤤🤣 I love that chopping board too. Where did you get it from please?
I've found your channel as I've just bought an Unna and its maiden voyage is next weekend. Many thanks for your videos
The chopping board came with a Stanley fry pan set 👍. Hope you enjoy your first camp with the Unna. I’ve grown to really love that tent! Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment! All the best
And thank you for replying. I've just had a play in the back garden with it and have high hopes it will give me what I need and wrap me in a nice protective shelter. That virtual vestibule is massive!@@GoingSoloOutdoors
Okay that pizza is darn cool. Where did you source the cutting board that fits?
Thanks! It’s from a Stanley fry pan cook set 👍. It nests nicely in the pan. Appreciate the comment!
Where did you get that little cutting board? I have the same pan and the nesting is perfect.
It came in a really old Stanley cook set that I have but as you said it nests perfectly 👍. I’m not sure of the exact name of the cook set, but just try searching for a Stainless Steel Stanley cooks set. It came with the cutting board and the spatula that I’ve used on many of my camps. It’s definitely a nice but a kit 😀. ATB
Great video once again.
Where did you get the black round chopping board from? Will it sit in the base of the Jetboil skillet.
The Unna is a fantastic tent. Love mine.
Thanks! The chopping board is from my old Stanley fry pan set. It fits inside the jetboil skillet nicely 👍. The set also comes with a really nice spatula that I often use in my other videos. Really really enjoying the Unna. Wish I would have gotten it sooner! Appreciate you taking the time to comment 😀
@@GoingSoloOutdoors No worries.
Keep making great videos
@@atomicflea888 😀👍👍
Those spiders are completely harmless. Just in case you were worried. I call them September spiders because they build their webs across trails, mostly in September. Their 'offical' name is the Cross Orb Weaver, but their real name (according to me) is the September spider. :) The critters at 37 minutes are sand hoppers. They're crustaceans, not bugs. Again they're completely harmless albeit somewhat annoying. On some beaches they form what look like dust clouds as you walk along the beach disturbing them. During the day they mostly hide under rocks or seaweed or debris, and at dusk and night they come out (as you discovered). The crab at 39 minutes is a common shore crab. They live in the intertidal areas so I'm guessing that where you had your tent was below the spring-tide mark. You were likely not at a full or new moon phase in the lunar cycle, otherwise where you were may have been reached by the sea, particularly if there was a strong on-shore wind or swell.
I know the spiders were harmless just not a huge fan of them crawling on me. Especially when they get in your face 😅👍. Also was still a bit perplexed having never figured out what bit me so many times leading up to that camp. The sand hoppers are kinda cool (although definitely a bit annoying) we have similar crustaceans back where I grew up in the states. Each time I come here or camp on other beaches I always try to keep an eye on the tide schedule and make sure I am there for high tide so I know the area is safe. I’ve been very fortunate coming here. When I camped here during the previous spring the water was definitely a bit closer to my camp at high tide but still far enough. It was really nice to come back to this spot. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. ATB
Spring tide is an unfortunate name. It refers to the highest tides at the new-moon & full-moon, not the season after winter. Looking forward to your next video. I still can't get over how many tents you must have :) @@GoingSoloOutdoors
😂👍 Gotcha. Interestingly enough I did actually have a full moon on that spring camp as well. Yes, I have too many tents. My wife reminds me all the time. But in my defense, I don’t really spend money on much else. Purchasing camping gear has definitely been a vice of mine for many years 😅
There are videos of the 5Ws of selecting a safe and convenient place to pitch your tent.
For coastal camping you need to be aware of 2 more Ws:
Whigh tides.
Wcliff falls.
Tidal time charts are often posted. Tidal ranges are very high in this region. Seaweed shows the high tide line.
Wcliff falls depend on the geology and recent storms. The Jurassic Coast is fine silt and sand and can have massive land slips at the coastal cliffs. Top or bottom edge of cliffs is no place to camp.
I’m not sure if you watched the full video, but I actually checked the tides. I also wait until high tide to make sure I have a safe campsite. I also wake up before the high tide in the morning as well 👍. I grew up in the US by the ocean and spent nearly every weekend at the beach. You become very use to the using the tide schedule. The area I’ve chosen to camp is also an area that experienced a massive landslide long ago so unlike most of this area there are no large cliffs above me. That’s why I’ve actually camped at this spot before. It’s one of the few areas along this large stretch of coast that is relatively safe. One of the reasons I choose the path I do as well is because I don’t want to walk down the coast underneath the cliffs that are not as safe. Thanks for taking the time to comment! I appreciate the concern 🙏😀.
Nice video - new subscriber!
Thank you. I really appreciate the support!
Get the floor support for the gas canister. Stable safer
I have the canister support that comes with the Jetboil. I used it when I was making the pizzas. It works well 👍
Hi,just a tip here. When you're out in freezing cold weather and decide to use a hot water bottle,place it between your inner thighs rather than at your feet.Your feet warms up,but not the rest of your body.Your inner thighs have many blood vessels,so your blood will heat up quickly.If you know this already,i apologise. Good luck on your adventures.
👍😀 I talk about placing hand warmers in my long john’s next to the femoral arteries in one of my winter camping videos. Works great 👍. Appreciate the comment!
love the upside down pizza! i will try that at home. what jet boil are you using?
I am using the jetboil minimo. It’s a nice easy way to make pizza while at camp 😀🍕. Just make sure you use a good nonstick skillet 👍
Thanks for your response 🙂@@GoingSoloOutdoors
Like your video. Beautiful view
Greating from indonesia bro
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment 👍. All the best!
You resemble David Byrne of the talking heads rock band....Rock on dude....
I love your cinematography talent in capturing your experiences/content and the music choice! What a beautiful place all right! I would be gorging myself on the berries!
Thank you so much! It’s always a pleasure to visit this coastline. It’s such a pretty place! Although they are a delicious snack on a hike, I am nearing my fill of black berries. We can’t walk anywhere without my kids stopping to eat as many as they can 😂. Appreciate you taking the time to comment!
@@GoingSoloOutdoorsthank you for your content which is so relaxing and enjoyable to learn and watch!
I’m a New Zealander living in Australia. If you haven’t already and get a chance to ever visit my beautiful country (Aotearoa/New Zealand), I’m sure you and your family would absolutely fall in love with our scenery, people, food and adventures! You might like to check out “100% PURE NEW ZEALAND,” as a starting point to view some of the tantalising tourism and activities that are on offer to visitors. Our country only has two types of poisonous spiders, other than that we have no other natural predators (aside from bush pigs if you were to go hunting). It is a super safe and friendly country, with an emphasis on community and family being a common thread in our societal interactions (of course like anywhere you will encounter the opposite now and again, but as a whole New Zealanders/Kiwi’s are warm and welcoming).
This was another good link of an American couples adventures and highlights of their experiences in New Zealand (10month old footage).

Who makes the stove? Is that the X-Boil from Germany? I don't know if you can find that here in the USA. :(
Yes it’s the x-boil 👍. A very nice and lightweight stove. I’m not sure if he ships to the states. Maybe check his website. It’s been out for a while though so there may now be other sites selling it as well.
Nice location dude .
👍😀 Thanks! I really enjoy coming to this bit of coastline. Appreciate the comment
I wonder where you were camping on the coast 🤔 My family and I used to live in Swanage on the Isle of Purbeck, and I still miss Dorset. 😢
Such a beautiful part of the country. I was quite a bit further west along the coastline towards Lyme Regis 👍. Thanks for the comment! Hope you have a great weekend
I have lived in Dorset. Just a guess, maybe the Landslip Area going into Devon. Never did go there, but know the history.
