    Nice happy video. I see the tent is at tied to the bottom of the pack, I always attach it to the top of the pack, this makes it easier to carry and it's not banging against the legs. Packed correctly it will be less strain on the body. ATB Cheers from the mountains of NZ 😀😀

    The carbon filter is a great idea in the lower lands, but there is little need on the moor.
    I mix and match on the moor, a little wool is a good idea it'll keep you warm even when wet when synthetics just hang limp and useless. You really lucked out with the weather, I had snow on Halloween when I did it a couple of years ago. Love the snippets of history you added, Dartmoor is so much more than grass and tors (as is Bodmin) and I always throw a little in if I can. Cracking little video, if you want a further, though shorter challenge, do the Marilyn's ( a play on the Monroe's of Scotland) Cornwall has 5, Devon just the 1....Kernow wins that one 🤣Kernow bys vyken.

    Love Dartmoor it’s as if your going back 200 year’s +.my favourite Tor is the vixen.someone wrote a book about a wee adventure I went on once called ‘the dream of vixen tor’.where I’m the 3 characters in it, the coachman the ranger and the waif.there’s a stunning perfectly formed doorway at the bottom of the vixen tor.but I was informed it was only really meant for women to go in.oh and Munro’s are in Scotland 🙏❤️✊

    Try eliminating the onions and garlic for dinner and Josh might hit on you and you both could sleep in the same tent or sleeping bag
