  • An overnight wet wild camp in heavy rain at Hurunui Hut in the Kaimai Ranges with Outdoorsman Dave. There was rain. Very heavy rain. Lots of mud and a storm overnight. It was wet. Very wet. Did I mention the heavy rain?
    Rain and water on the lens made for some difficult filming conditions during this heavy rain camp and hike to Hurunui Hut in the Kaimai Ranges, New Zealand.

    It was a business doing pleasure with you buddy. Fascinating to see the same scene taken from different perspectives, it was a smile a mile...from pack-horse Dave.

      You looked after me well, and it's much appreciated. It was an easy trip with great company. Thanks.

    Wow, almost our one year anniversary, such a fun hiking adventure together. I predict that one day you’ll learn to love the rain 😉

      Almost a year? How quickly time flies. Im not sure I'll ever "love the rain", but I have started to see it in a better light. I did a trip to a hut last weekend and it was fine. No rain, just blue sky. Hard to believe, I know.

      @@OAPAdventures Thanks for watching, Peter. Cycle touring is certainly more luxurious than trudging through muddy forests with a big pack on your back!

  • @Upsidedownorangejuice

    This is fantastic cross over! It's fantastic seeing the banter. TBH with you on porridge (with some dried fruit and milk powder...) travels well and always tasty if you keep the fruit mix varied... dried mango is the best.
    It's fantastic looking hut.
    Great video, gave me some laughs. look forward to the next one.

    Nice one guys. Now I have seen Dave con a mate out of bacon when he just brought porridge along in one of his videos, so you should have scored some of his fancy brekkie. That spider though! Yikes.

      I was happy we found the spider in the morning! I couldn't eat some of Dave's breakfast after he looked so pleased with himself with the results . Thanks for watching.
