It Started out NICE anyways - Winter Wild Camping in Heavy Rain 🏔️❄️
In this video I head out wild camping knowing that bad weather is on the way. Its the main reason I cose the Vango Xenon UL 2. It offers so much room in bad weather and can withstand a strong gale. I head to one of my favourite spots in the Galtee mountains as it offers good protection from the elements. I bring out my JETBOIL stash to cook with and relax in the evening with some Rum from my stanley hip flask.
Thanks for joining me on the winter wild camp.
Martin

Excellent video again Martin. Sitting in the tent drinking coffee (or is it rum) looking out at the rainy world. Keep them coming for 2024. Legend!!!

@@soletrail I know well about reigniting the fires, as you responded to another viewer. I’m 77 and haven’t backpacked for more than 30 years but am hoping to do so again this year, or at least take a walking holiday. It’s been a struggle after health issues but … 🤞. Best wishes.

Great to see you back out again. It’s really hard to beat the sound of the rain hitting the tent. That looks a cracking spot yous had to pitch up on.

100% agree. I could listen to rain all day. It's mornings like that you remember the most. Sunrises are amazing but a coffee under a shelter in the rain is so special. Really is.

Excellent video mate, well done, once I had to bail out from there, pitch black, just my two torches and the sheep looking at me, just there heads following me, they don't even run away!! They must have been thinking "what a lunatic" those cracks are dangerous at night, it took me just over 2hrs to get to the car, another experience in the bag for next time.

@soletrail 5 ай бұрын

Yeah that route down is becoming bad.. a good head torch really comes into play on bail nights. It's the bail nights you remember thou. Cheers pal. Hope all is well.

Martin if you do go to Iceland again will you take this Xenon 2 with you because it offers the weather protection and more room in bad weather or will you take the 1 man Helium again?

@soletrail 5 ай бұрын

That's a tricky one.. 1.8kg isn't too bad for the size of it. All depends on the weight of the bag I suppose. We got lucky the last time in Iceland. The week after our trip was a wash out. It's times like that you appreciate the bigger space. It's a brilliant tent. Have you decided yet?

@ScottRosa2008 5 ай бұрын

I’ve actually just today ordered the Xenon UL 2 plus with the even bigger porch! It’s just over 2kg on the trail weight but will be so nice to have that extra room especially for wet gear
