Hi Bruce, Yes was a lovely spot for a camp, I’ll definitely be returning and Peanut loves being out there on moor. Thanks for watching and big hugs to lovely Otis. Cheers, Elliott.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. It was a very pleasant spot and Peanut is always happy when he's on Dartmoor. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Elliott.

Glad to hear you’re not jealous Tim 😂 Was a nice spot. Definitely be going back at some point. It’s always entertaining watching squirrels wind Peanut up from their tree. They’re his arch enemy 😂 Thanks for watching my friend. Cheers, Elliott.

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it. Dartmoor and Bodmin are very similar, but obviously with Dartmoor being bigger, there's a lot more to explore. Plenty of great places to get started on the west side of the moor if your coming from that way. Thanks for watching, Cheers, Elliott.

Thanks Barney. Yeah it was a lovely spot, definitely be returning at some point. Great to hear you're familiar with Saunders tents. I actually got the one in the video over 30 years ago. Perhaps things have moved on a bit now in terms of design, but I like the fact that I can use this tent without any poles using a ridge line and just the flysheet with a bivi bag if required. Probably do that in a vid at some point. Have you ever owned a Saunders Tent? Anyways, thanks for watching the Peanut show 🐶 Cheers, Elliott.

Thank you, was a lovely spot. Love being up on Dartmoor, its a magical place. Cheers, Elliott.

@@beaconbushcraftoutdoors5834 It's a beautiful area to wonder around, spent many nights up on the Moors over the decade's, atb. Paul.

Thanks for your comment my friend and I totally appreciate your point. We absolutely must set a good example while wild camping and I'm always coming across fire pits where no effort has been made to leave no trace, which is exactly what we want to avoid. I always leave a camp spot exactly as I found it including re covering my fire pit and taking all my rubbish away, as I show in the videos. Apart from the flattened grass, you wouldn't know I'd been there, but I do accept that some people will see the fire, but not watch to the end of the video where everything is returned to the way it was before I camped and will bear that in mind in future videos. Thanks for raising this point as I do genuinely think its important and thanks for watching. Cheers, Elliott.

@@beaconbushcraftoutdoors5834 no problem elliot. I think the other issue is where people see someone having a fire and think it's OK to have one themselves but don't have the experience to ensure its managed properly and end up starting a fire specially in this weather. You sometimes have to treat everyone as idiots to make sure they don't do something stupid. Cheers for responding though and not taking it the wrong way. 👍

@@NoviceWildCamper No worries Wild Camper. It's a great point and I totally agree, particularly when the weather is as dry as it is. Thanks for the feedback. All the best, Elliott.

I have to agree with novice, LNT is not covering up scorched ground with grass. People may think it’s ok to have open fires on Dartmoor. Plus was this in the camping permitted zone?

Point taken and thanks for watching. For what its worth, the scorched ground was doused with water and then covered with turf which will re grow, so there will be no trace of my camp. Also, yes it was in the permitted zone. Cheers, Elliott.

Thank you. Yeah he’s very cool and cracks me up all the time. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Elliott.

Thank you my friend, much appreciated. Glad you liked the video and the set up. Cheers, Elliott.

Thanks Matt, appreciate it mate 👍 Yeah I'm lucky to live in an area with a lot of rivers and streams and love to camp by a water supply of some kind as it saves on carrying water in etc. The tent flysheet can actually be used on its own with a ridge line for a super light weight set up in woods, so its pretty versatile. Anyway, thanks for watching mate. Take care, Elliott.

Yeah was a shoddy location Des. I’ll try a bit harder next time 😂 Good to hear you’ve used Saunders tents, that one is 30 years old, but it’s very light and can be pitched without poles if required using a ridge line, and fly sheet only, so pretty versatile. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Elliott.

Thanks mate, appreciate it. The moor is a great place to just wander and explore and once in a while you find these little gems if your lucky. Thanks for watching and hope you manage to get out for some outdoors time soon. Cheers, Elliott.
