      Cheers Dave. Couldn’t have asked for any better. Decembers always a tricky month for getting out with commitments so I’m pretty happy to have managed to get that one in and with such great conditions too. ATVB to you too, hope you a great Christmas and new year. Catch up soon Robert

    It's a sublime spot Robert, myself, my brother and Ray at RS Outdoors camped there about a year ago too. Great film with beautiful views. We didn't have the same luck overnight as you with wild winds and a rapid thaw overnight for us but still worth it for the views of the Coe, great stuff. A

      Yeah I remember seeing that. Always love it when Ray pops up on a wee collab video. That weather window was too inviting to miss. Had to take it. Cheers for the comment, ATVB for Christmas 🎄 and Hogmanay Robert

    Hi Robert, Just stumbled across your Vlog whilst holed up with flu. Absolutely loved the presentation, editing and those views!!!!!
    Would have loved to see you tucking into a Full Scottish in the café 😂
    Goes without saying I’ve “liked” and of course Subscribed.
    I’ll definitely be looking up your past adventures over the next couple of days.
    Btw I live in Scotland and rarely seem to get days like yours 🤷
    Cheers

      Ohh your spot on, I had to bin my work to get that. Getting to use all that winter kit will be rare or if we get snow it often comes with 40mph winds.
      Thank you for the comment, I’ve tried to have a style of edit to my videos, the snow and condition definitely made it easier to capture it. ATVB Robert

    Hi Robert. Wow mate, you are so lucky being north of the border. We’ve had nothing like that yet in the Lakes. All we have had now is wind and rain.
    That mate was absolutely stunning, what scenes. Thanks for taking us along. All the best mate, have a great Christmas and New Year.

      Hi Dave, If it makes you feel any better, I live in Scotland and rarely get a day like Robert’s. I seem to be free either when it’s raining C+D’s or gale force winds with driving wet snow in the face and no views.
      Hope the weather improves down there as we have a cottage booked in Caldbeck for a week just after Christmas 🤞

      Have a great time in Caldbeck. I lovely little village. Make sure you have some meals at the Oddfellows Inn, beautiful food. We ate there when we staying at the campsite just down the road when we were on the Cumbria Way.
      Have a great Christmas and New Year. 😀🎄🎅🏻

    This was great. I have the previous simond Makalu, I don't think much has changed. Not so sure about my Rab Muon. I don't think it did well with loads. Can you tell me what cameras and drone you were using please? Subbed!

    • @Moffatmountainadventures
      @Moffatmountainadventures  12 часов назад +1

      @@Fellmandave1 that’s funny hearing from you. It was your video on the original that made me decide to buy this one. Couldn’t find much on RUclips at all Nat yours and a couple of French ones.
      That was a one off for winter with that bag, it managed ok but I had it bursting point.
      Camera wise I use the iPhone 14 Pro for a lot of the main footage with a DJI mic attached to it. I also used an insta360 for walking footage, some of the set up clips and the night lapse, then I had the DJI Neo drone that got used for some of the closer aerial shots and the DJI mini 3 for the further shots.
      Hope that helps, lovely to hear from a legend ATVB Robert

      @@Moffatmountainadventures Legend, ha, thats too kind, just persistent maybe. Yes, i think the Makalu is under appreciated, its my warmest tent, just a bit low. Have you had it in any strong winds yet, say 40 plus?
      I took the Muon on the tour de mont blanc, with 12 kg the internal velcro was pulling off the frame, shoulder straps underpadded too IMO. Looks cool though!
      Great spot you were camping in.i have a happy memory from that exact location that is not for YT!
      I have just got a DJI mini 4 pro, so am learning drone stuff.
      Anyway , happy camping for this winter and next year buddy and all the best.

      @@Fellmandave1 yeah had it in 40mph a few times. Didn’t really notice it move much at all. Fantastic tent. Obviously with all tents you need it pitched correctly but I can’t fault it so far.
      You’ll love getting to grips with that drone, adds some really interesting shots.
      Good shoot with the padding on the bag. Did notice that. Definitely gonna be saving that bag for my summer trips
