The first half of the video I thought you had lost the plot lol. But it all made sense when the weather cleared up and where you ended up. You always have a way of finding the the most amazing locations and views. Great to see you still making videos. Keep it up, so relaxing to watch!!!
I feel invested in this multi-night camp now, lol. Looks like such an adventure, and it's a real pleasure following you on it. And I have to say, I love the way you approach things. You take things in your stride, always with a sense of humour, and make things look easy, even when the conditions are tough. Gives me some confidence to do the same. Thanks!
8:34 Great shot! It is a good idea to change into wellies and you should try the shallow grassy creek again. The bog can be unpredictable, unfortunately. Cattail ponds are safe, though. I also have the Froclaz tent like yours, I bought it last year. It survived heavy storms and did not get we at all. I might try similar trekkings, too, firstly only a day length trip.
What a beautiful spot, you definitely made the right decision. The views were glorious and the sky at night, I’d kill for that view. The rain is a pain.
( After minute 14 : 00 ). You caught the silence I always chased when I backpacked around the hills of Britain. That said, I am a confirmed Roadtrekker these days - I follow B-roads. Next year I'll follow the B-roads hugging the Korean coastline. Thing is this, I've transformed into the Sultan of backpacking. Following roads and pavement allows me to do my ' Scott of the Antarctic ' impersonation. I pull a big, fat trolley behind me. Part one of your video vlog reminded me why I travel the way I do now. I did the Pennine Way when I was 15 years old. It took me 17 days ( technically 18 days - I was forced to pitch just outside Kirk Yetholm due to my arriving late ). For the whole of those 17 days I was damp; sometimes soaked-through. My sleeping bag was as dry as the world's most enthusiastic wet wipe. My clothes and tent were, basically , a differing degree of wet. It was a miserable experience; full stop. Sleeping in a wet sleeping bag on the damp, cold ground in a damp. wet tent in damp/ wet clothes.....no thanks! I have a hot tent with a wood stove. A cot with built-in inflatable mattress.A pop-up tent for my toilet and shower. I have RAB and MontBell clothing and sleeping bags. A decent folding table and chair; a solar panel as well as Jackory.....see what I mean? I watch you because you are the real deal. A genuine hillwalker. You are the only one who uses a map! It is what sent me off on my waffling. I watch many walkers; campers; etc. Yet you are the only one using a map. I can relate to that. So thanks for two interesting and very contrasting days/ vlogs. And thanks for the memories...........can you hear Frank Sinatra?!!!
Goodness, you could have canoed back to the car. The second site was stunning and the starfield so beautiful. I hope nothing has popped and you will have more comfy nights!
Those stars were absolutely beautiful! Could you see that many with the naked eye? Great video
10 out for 10. Thanks for posting.♥
That was a great video Vickers. I was afraid for you with all that rain. You are very brave.

Great. Look forward to seeing more! I hate walking in wellies!
Great views!!
I would've thought sponsor's would have gifted you excellent tackle by now, anyway you keep it real as it is so that's great.
