Freezing Wild Camp on Cross Fell & a Chinese Trangia Masterclass
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Taking advantage of the good weather forecast, me and my dad @overthehillwildcamper set off from Garrigill and followed the Pennine Way to Cross Fell for a wild camp.
We pitched just off the summit, me in my MLD Duomid and my dad in his Durston XMid 2p.
Once the sun went down the clear skies guaranteed a frozen winter camp, with a very heavy frost. Despite the subzero conditions, I cooked Chinese braised pork on my Trangia 25.
A memorable winter camp.
I hope you enjoy.
Cracking camp that. A good coating of frost which Is a nice picture. It’s on my list that place. I always look forward to what you cook mind and it looked lovely. Atb mark
Cheers Mark. Yeah, proper cold frosty night and morning. All the best mate

The food looked very authentic. Anyone would think you had some kind of cookery qualification.

I've got the EE Torrid pullover, it's great kit. Just got some Rab down kecks but wish I'd seen the EE trousers. Good scran there, I'm a bit lazy for that though 😁 TFS, David 👍
Alright mate. Yeah, those trousers are a game changer mate. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. All the best mate 👍
Great video, well done with the cooking too. Particularly enjoyed seeing you out with your Dad as I used to do loads with my Dad and our last wild camp together he was 85, so I subbed your Dad and will give him a watch too.
ATB 👍
Thanks Dave 🙏
Wow 85, that’s amazing. Yeah, he’s a tough old boot me fatha. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. My dad’s vlog of this camp should be up by tomorrow sometime.
All the best 👍
Nice one Steve. There’s a local wind called the Helm which is an easterly. My dad grew up at the foot of Cross Fell. I camped up there a couple of summers ago. Atb
Thanks for watching Pete. Well it was definitely the Helm that woke me up in the morning 🤣
Really enjoyed that camp. To be fair the wind wasn’t that bad and the skies were lovely and clear.
All the best mate 🙏
Best camping scran I've ever seen!! thanks for sharing lads.

It’s a Duomid by Mountain Laurel Designs. I love it’s simplicity.

That looked like some good fodder. I remember the shoulder of Cross Fell being a bog the last (and only) time I was there several years ago. Top camp, for you and yer old man.
Cheers Andy. Yeah, the last pull up to
The summit was very boggy. I had dry feet up until That point.

Nice one, great little mini adventure. I’ve been meaning to get up there myself for years and this video is providing a bit of motivation because it looked fantastic 👍
H Graham, hope you’re well mate. It was a cracking camp thanks to the conditions. I’d highly recommend it. Just pick a decent weather window 🤣
All the best 🙏

Alright mate? Yeah, whack some coriander in next time mate. Goes perfect with any Asian meal.
It was a full house in Greg’s hut on the Sunday morning when we were heading home.
We were really lucky to have clear skies. Magnificent mate. All the best 🙏
@@belowaveragewildcamper aye just plodding on mate got a nice little hilly 30 in yesterday 🚴(baltic🥶)ill get up gregs this winter to check out the £100k refurb🤨👍 cheers
Yum !
Woz top notch fodder. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. 🙏
Well what a feast! Credit to your skills (and your mam’s recipe). That Trangia 25 looked like it suited the desired portion size; your dad looked pleased. Well done for a Winter camp Steve. ATB 👍🏻
Cheers Steve. Much appreciated.
Yes, the portion size was very welcome. 🙏
Another great video Steve .. Your bait looked tasty 😋
It was magnificent Graham 🧑🍳
Cheers for watching and leaving a comment. 🙏
Looked like a chilly one Steve 🥶, but a bet that scran hit the spot, love a trangia master class. Snowing in the tent 🤣, have you not received your Trailstar yet? I ordered one on the 2nd. That wind didn’t half pick up too, the morning views looked great with all that frost, class..atb Mick 👍
Cheers Mick. My Trailstar was actually deliver today. Can’t wait to use it. Which material and colour did
You go for?
All the best mate 🙏
@@belowaveragewildcamper spot on mate, how long did it take from order? Went for gray green, although I really like the orange too, in silpoly.
@@otf.outdoors yeah, the DCF was s a right pain in the arse.
Just checked, I ordered mine on the 23rd of September so about 7 weeks in total. Worth the wait though. 😉
@@belowaveragewildcamper not bad time to wait that really, did you get the orange? Look forward to see you out with it mate 👍
@@otf.outdoors it’ll be a nice Xmas present for you 🎅
Yeah I got the orange again. Can’t resist the bright colours. Nee good for stealth camping though. I’ll leave that to BLOT 🤣
Cracking camp. You must be getting the reputation of the best cook on the mountains. Was out Saturday night and it's certainly getting into full winter conditions 🥶
Yeah, winter has arrived!!!
Not sure if I’ve mentioned previously but I have a NVQ Level 1 in professional cooking 🧑🍳 this is the reason I excel
In this area…….. 😉
Hope you’re well mate. Looking forward to your next video.
All the best mate 🙏
😂😂@@belowaveragewildcamper
Great camp lads, fair play with the effort made on the cooking, however you gave yer dad a hospital pass with that comparison to yer mum's cooking 😂. Beautiful sun and view in the morning. I don't know how you slept in a tent with no groundsheet or inner, I was freezing just watching it ❄️. Great adventure, well done 👍
Alright Karl, slept like a baby……. 😬
Yes, I set him Up for a fall with that question but he diplomatically swerved it didn’t he.
All the best Karl. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. It’s much appreciated. 🙏
Well done on cooking proper food up the hill. Better than those horrible dehydrated things.
Thanks David. Love cooking on the Trangia. Don’t like carrying the extra weight though 🥵
You’re right, much better than those dehydrated meals though.
All the best 🙏
