- Camping in the wind and rain. Yep, a nice summer trip turned pretty ugly out on Old Winchester Hill. Which is an ancient hill fort. following the South Downs way from Winchester this hill fort sits about 15 miles into the 100 mile trip.
This was a recon trip to check out some of the route for the summer hike along the whole of the South Downs way with Warren from @Linleys
I was also testing some of the gear I plan to use, including the Lanshan 1 tent. Which faced a proper test in the rain and wind on an exposed hill top.
I got the modded version of the Lanshan 1 from here outdoorgearess...

Good old reliable, trustworthy Warren who can supply you with cake & hot custard even when lightweight camping in atrocious weather. Good Luck with the full walk in August.
Thanks Stephen. Although I'm not sure Warren will bring custard on the proper trip 😪
Enjoyed that Dan. Good old South Downs. Good plan testing the tent out. That rain and clag! Love that wide shot near the end of you both walking on the horizon. Hope you got all the kit dried out all okay. Niiicee! 👍👍
yes mate, all good. it was a successful test. really looking forward to getting going on the hike now!
Awesome overnight hike and camp. Weather was nasty, looks like a great tent
Thanks. It was good to get out again, weather and all. 👌
Great video ,best of luck with your walk .
You can’t go wrong with a modified Lanshan 1
And you chose the best colour 👍
@gavinwallbank7570 thanks Gavin. Appreciate that. 👍
Wonderful camping video. I love this weather...
Thanks. It was a fun night!
Fading Warren out... lmfao
I bet you were glad to do a first run out in the summer... aaargh!
What a scenic view for you in the morrow.
I felt a bit mean fading him out. but it was funny 😁
Bl00dy awful up there but so good to be out I didn't care.
Hope you're well Timmy x
@@CampLifeBushcraft It was hysterical, Dan. My type of humour too 🤣
I know exactly what you mean about not caring.
I’ve not been on an overnighter since April and I couldn’t care if I get four seasons in one day next week or, get bitten by a tiger or squashed by a rock. I’m out 😁
All good here thank you, Dan. I hope the same for you too.
24 😉👍🏼
Wowsers, did you have a turn out in that rain! Nightmare!
It was a double turnout morning 😳🤣
Love the video, loved the trip mate. Nice :)
It was a great night out. Really enjoyed it mate. Thank you 👍
Love your adventures boys.. always good.
Crissy and i are thinking of coming to the UK next year. see how things pan out. Cheers
I really hope that you finish this. It's so much more of a challenge when you're not someone who walks these distances regularly. The pain is pretty bad doesn't it. I'm walking an ultra challenge from Eastbourne to Arundel in 2wks 100km. I'm not fit and kind of dreading it lol the only solace is that I completed the IOW 106km a couple of years ago.
I need to see you complete this to get me inspired buddy.
@tom7676 Thanks Tom.
Spoiler alert.. I did complete it.. but it was pretty tough, last couple of days were painful.
Thanks for the video Dan. Posting to you from my new channel. Cheers Evan (aka) Evo from Oz.
@@GippslandLakesExplorer cheers Evo. Good luck with your new channel. 👍👍
@@CampLifeBushcraft Thanks for the kind words and the sub Dan. Cheers Evo.
G'day Dan, Warren, nice trip within Itself. I do dig the history, including railways and glad to hear the wildflowers have been considered too !!!!! anyway, a bitta recon and good gear test, (fetching, an all Warren), for ....... did you say 100 mile .......... better you than me mate ; )
Seriously, all the very best of British, when the time comes.
Cheers Duke.
P.S. Btw; I reckon camping overlooking Leeds would provide a good view of campfires, or I should say "wildfires", at the moment, .... no probs with that skill there ; (
It is a rotter when it rains.. which is why I always go camping wearing a conundrum ! lol
Hope all is well Dan bro !
Very best wishes to you and yours as always !
I used to live in Easton near Winchester ..but I also used to live in Australia
..so I used to dynamite the trout in the river Itchen ..no wonder those posh chaps couldn't hook
a Scarlet ! lol.. When they cut the M3 through the Worthy Down I was devastated.. I divorced my
girlfriend and married my wig !! .. lol
Ooooh that Meryl! Loving your channel.
Haha! Thanks
The 2 amigos out in their usual weather living the dream .. in their dreams. A sure test of man and his gear this one guys. Gotta hope the 100 is better weather Dan. Great camp good humour. Bushyboy Oz.
I hope so too.. I don't really want to carry my heavy-duty waterproofs.
Great test for the tent though. Really pleased with that.
Super camping spot
Thank you sir. it was a great evening out!
When I did the south downs way last year I couldn't camp there. There were simply too many people about. I had to camp in the woods bit.
Also carry 3 ltrs of water with you. The taps can be quite spread out at times and they don't always work.
That's why we went to test it out.. the woods are our secondary option. I imagine on a sunny evening it may be busy.. depending on what night of the week it is.
Thanks Dan for a fantastic video been there in the 70s going back for a day walk it's a great place 👍
Awesome views. Hoping for a sunset next time though!
The Shoe Inn seems to be very popular. What weather, I think I wouldve gone home or B&B.
Enjoyed as always, Warren is very interesting
You'll be fit enough
I haven't been camping for a good month or so.. it was just great to be out again.. tge rain wasn't going to 'dampen' my mood 😁😁
Hi Dan, so you and Mr linley were in my neck of the woods. I have spent many nights on and around Old Winnie Hill mate, cracking place no matter the weather, but superb when the suns out bud .
Good effort by you both, love the videos mate keep them coming, big thumbs up.
Regards

Really, I didn't realise you were from around there.
The views in the morning were glorious. But even tent bound I was just happy to be outside 🙃
Wow what a night! But worth it for the beautiful views in the morning. Hope you got your medicinal pint😜 Great video 👍
Thank you.. we did, we had a pint and a stop off for a fry up. 👌👌👌
You failed to mention Winchester Alfie and his cakes.. the mustard was supposed to be in the caboose god damn it !!
Rain test = pass SDW here we go…🙃🍄
😁😁😁
Cheers mate
@budwilliams6590 cheers bud 👍
Taolin socks? Is that what the kung fu monks wore?
@@BoxTunnel 😂😂😂
Do you still use that hand free umbrella? I’m considering buying it and you have review of it 4 years ago but in this video you’re not using it anymore. Why if I may ask?
I'm practicing for an ultralight trip. I still have the umbrella and use it on occasion. But it won't be part of my ultralight set up.
