After being inspired by ‪@MarkOutdoors_‬ latest vlog on the Scottish English border, we decided to follow in his footsteps.
Joined by my dad ‪@overthehillwildcamper‬ and my friend Ciaran, we parked at Carter Bar and set off on the short hike to Carter Pike where we enjoyed a nice summer wild camp.
I hope you enjoy 👍

Another great video Steve. Describing your grub as a 'posh pot noodle' made me laugh.🙂 Cheers mate.👍

A great camp. Lovely spot up there and not a bad view either is it. Sometimes it’s nice and especially for you to just take what’s needed and it’s easier and it gives you more time to chat with the lads etc. great footage and 3 cracking summer light weight set ups. I couldn’t pick one but I would use them all as they are all equally great. Atb Mark.

Nice one mark. That’s very kind. Yeah, a cracking view from Up there. No spectacular inversion like you had, but grateful for a dry morning. All the best mate. 👍

Another great video, no masterclass though! Looked like a great spot for a camp though 👍

Another great video, thank you. Loved the equipment review, didn't really miss the trangia masterclass, they're good but a bit lengthy for me, but that's just a personal choice. Keep em coming!

Nice one Phil. Much appreciate the comment. All the best 🙏

It’s a cracking spot with good views Steve, camped up there in January, not a load of flat spots like, your set up looks 👌, super light, I agree with you about the trailstar, definitely makes a better winter shelter, like you said it’s the sleep system that keeps you warm, the shelter only stops the wind, atb Mick 👍

@belowaveragewildcamper Ай бұрын

Cheers Mick. Was it very boggy in January mate? Your current set up is top class mate 👍

@@belowaveragewildcamper it wasn’t too bad tbh mate, as it was freezing temps, was there no midges there yet?

@belowaveragewildcamper Ай бұрын

@@otf.outdoors it was quite windy so they weren’t about. I’d imagine that they’d be there if the wind dropped. 🪰

Excellent Steve. Do we get a discount due to lack of TMC? Tip clip yer milk bottle to outside of yer Atom and leave it there always. Atb

Hi Pete. Yeah, that’s 2 camps in a row I’ve forgotten it. Good tip. All the best mate 🙏

@littlegrandadoutdoors Ай бұрын

I would feel lost without my trangia... I only cook real food too... Though iam considering getting some army ration pack meals for emergency.. at least they're not posh pot noodles , that cost the price of a night out.... Take care out there.

Cheers Juan. Yeah, they’re very pricey. Might just hoy a tin of curry in next time. Although certainly not ‘ultralight’. 🤣 All the best mate.

I imagine us northerners are constantly struggling to find any bottles with a large enough aperture; it must be very confusing for Londoners to watch this kind of practical documentary.

@belowaveragewildcamper Ай бұрын

I’m forever searching for a wide enough aperture Phil. The 2 pint milk bottle is the optimum size I find. 🤣 Can’t comment about Londoners but I’d imagine they’d manage fine with a small water bottle. 🧐 All the best mate 🙏

Nice vid as always BAWC , glad you said that about the Trail Star because its one i have considered for a few years now but a month ago i ended up settling for the Six Moons Design Luna Solo because even though like you i love the Xmid i am forever trying to lighten my pack weight without compromising comfort and although i have only used the SMLS twice and its rained quite heavily and been fairly strong winds, so far i am a big fan of it and i can see myself using this right up to the winter months. Its very spacious and provides that all important midge protection and stands up very well to the wind and when its wet it sheds a surprising amount of water unlike a lot of Sil Nylon tents due to the fabric treatments ATB

Hi, thanks for leaving a comment. Yeah, I’d have to say I love both the Duomid and the Trailstar but the if I could only have one it would definitely be the Duomid. I love using it. All the best mate 🙏

Hi Sean. I got mine from; backpackinglight.co.uk But it looks like they’ve stopped selling them. I’d email them and they might be able to point you in the right direction. All the best mate 🙏
