Thanks it’s always pretty cool to see the end result of a Timelapse. I used the GoPro10 for this attached to a external battery. I think it was running from about 9pm to 7am

Thank you. It is very nice up there. I want to go down over the ridge and deep into the wilderness sometime maybe this summer. Might take a break from the Cobb for a bit tho been up there a lot recently.
Round Lake is such a lovely spot, you guys showcased it well. Not sure I share your passion for those quilts, there good for gram saving but not convinced you can stay warm enough, although I have not actually tried one.
The quilt is definitely different to a bag. I use both and the main difference relevant to me is the comfort. With the quilt you Don’t get any pulling of the fabric underneath when moving around at night. I tend to move a lot when I sleep so this is a great positive. My sleeping bag is 700 loft down with 20d nylon so it’s not exactly a light weight design compared with my 10d nylon 800 loft down quilt so the in conjunction with the inherent weight saving characteristics of a quilt it’s a lot lighter and more compact. I don’t have issue with losing warm air with my quilt maybe because I am aware of the risks of potentially letting a draft in. I think over all they are worth it especially when it’s not super cold.
I rarely use my Spark3 except as a quilt. A 3/4 length foam mat and Exped inflatable help to insulate. A quilt eliminates the thin compressed patches around shoulders and bum.
@@Longtack55 my brother has a spark 3. He has been having pretty bad condensation issue with water being trapped inside the out layer of fabric. Have you ever had this problem? He now uses the bag inside out and no issues a bit strange
Lol we split the tent which was nice. I took the stove and snacks and Victoria had the dehydrated food. I packed all the camera gear which is getting rather heavy these days.
Nice light up on that ridge, worth the extra hike. 10kg feels good eh. Do you have a sunscreen recommendation? We've had to throw some because it was turning our clothes patchy orangey brown.
Yeah go some nice photos up there. It does seem like you feel the weight more exponentially as it creeps up. I hate sunscreen but this neutrogena 30sfp stuff Victoria seemed to be pretty good didn’t smell or feel gross on.
The drone would give an even better indication of how far away from the rest of the world you are, and how jagged the terrain is around there. I guess it was Anton's.
I brought it with me but unfortunately once I got it out I realised I didn’t have the latest software installed so the app wouldn’t work. It was rather upsetting. Next time I’ll have it working.
@@AbelandVictoria Sorry, I don't mean to sound critical. This is a great escapade, and well put together. Thanks. It really shows that you can make a lot of life if you put in some effort, even if you don't have much more than 24 hours.
Amazing!!! Views are really insane 😁 picture perfect!
Love the time-lapse video of the sky. ... and the music.
Great video very gorgeous scenery and I recently bought the big Agnes so I’m glad your video shows a real experience in the tent.
❤ hello from Canada. 🇨🇦
Loving the time-lapse guys. The framing of the shot, stars, and then the mist and clouds washing over the tent. Awesome.

Another awesome movie 🎥

Big Agnes tents are ace!
Loved the night shot. What a beautiful scenery. Thoroughly enjoyed watching the film. Thank you.
I love my big Agnes tent it’s pretty much perfect. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it.
Great video, awesome! Can't wait to see the area for the first time after Christmas.
Thanks. What is the plan for the trip ?

Great vid, thanks. Been up the Cobb/Lake Peel many a time but haven't been to Round Lake, now added to the "to do" list. Cheers
Thanks. Round lake is definitely worth a visit. Camp lake is also very nice spot which is pretty easy to get to also
Really enjoyed the vid and planning a mission up there in January. Cheers!
Cheers. What tracks you plan on doing ?
Beautiful video! Very nice adventure. Crow
Hey thanks
Very nice vid. 😀 It's a really nice area up there.

Go the KMart pillow!
Absolutely great bit of gear. Arguably the best bang for buck piece I own
hey mate, music is bit hash.. go for a calm beat... cheers mate..
Yes I agree
10kg is impressive Abel, was Victoria happy to carry the other 18kg for you? 😉
Did yah fight over who got the awesome $3 KMart pillow?

My brother got us the Kmart pillows
For Christmas last year we have one each they are awesome to sit on
There's a decent little tent site just before Round Lake and above and to the right of the track on a little knob about 50m from the lake.
Sweet. Got any more good info about tracks and spots in kahurangi? Would love to know if you are willing to share.

@@gjcoop5625 haha no worries. Always worth getting out for a quick trip I reckon.
You all don't filter the water?
No. Not here it’s very clean
No camp chairs, really doing it tough.
Correct loo
