STORM CAMPING
I anticipated some bad weather but not to this extent! My Fjallraven Abisko Lite 2 held on well but only just as the ground wasn’t Ideal for getting stong anchor points. 70mph gusts hammered my tent for most of the night so I didn’t get much sleep. Still, it was awsome to be out and having good quality kit definitely kept me safer.
Take care out there

This brings back memories of when I carried mail back in the East of the US in the winter. Some days the wind would be so strong, it would be very difficult to walk into it. Add some snow or icy rain, and it felt like pins and needles hitting my face. It would be so cold and windy that my eyes would begin to freeze shut. A lot of things would be going through my mind. Like, "Why am I out here in this torturous weather, is this job worth the risk of frostbite? My exposed skin would begin to feel like plastic, as the top layer of my skin became so cold that there wasn't any sensation or touch. The weather was so terrible that barely anyone would be outside. The void of any human or animal activities made it feel like some sort of apocalyptic scene in a movie. But I pushed on. Often into evening hours as it began to get even colder. All that would be out there was me and the howling wind. With seemingly an endless load of mail yet to be delivered, I would think that if I survived today, I would be faced with yet another day, week, and months to come. Now, in retirement, I often dream that I am out delivering the mail in such extreme weather. As in dreams, it feels like there is no end to the suffering. Nearly 50 years since I became a City Letter Carrier, or mailman as the public referred to us as, I now suffer the aches and pains, my mother told me would be the result of working in extreme weather. Having a small pension and all of my children had what they needed growing up at home, was it all worth the pain and suffering? Could I have done something else? I actually don't know. It takes a special kind of person to do that job. Maybe I was that person.

Good advice at 19 mins about being prepared to bail if the worst happens. Been in that scenario and was glad I was able to deal with it quickly. Amazes me when I see people with tents and porches that look like a teenagers bedroom. If the worst happens it's best to have your kit ready to go. 👍 Poor Blue must have been heartbroken when he saw you packing then going without him. 🐾

Looks like you got no sleep overnight. Nothing worse than lying there all night and not being able to get to sleep. Means you’re knackered the next day before you even start.

Hi Al , Happy New Year Another great vid ,I was up there myself over the New Year to bag more peaks but she ( Mother Nature ) didn’t want me there lol .70 mph winds the rain felt like being pelted with stones , was wetter than an Otters Pocket ! Bagged a couple but didn’t want to put myself in trouble and having the mountain Rescue out .Safety first can always go back .Hope blue recovers soon because we miss him too ! Look forward to more of your adventures this year .👊👊

I'd love to see the stats as to how many people actually stopped watching 55 seconds in 😂 another cracking video, mate. I find them really relaxing for some reason.
