- A SMALL HILL WITH A BIG VIEW
Camping on the summit of Side Pike taking in the incredible views over the Langdale Pikes. Pitching the Terra Nova Quasar 40th Anniversary Limited Edition tent (expedition version of the Quasar) for the first time and I was quite impressed by its stature and feel of quality. Definitely a solid tent that is stronger than most out there with it’s geodesic design and tough materials. I just want to test it properly😉😬.

When you told blue to turn right and he instantly changed course. He is something special such a beautiful creature 👍
Bluey sleeping but still keeping an eye on dad .What a good boy 😊
Those shots of Blue would make excellent Screensavers
Fruit and Lego storage is the first thing I look for in a tent. Glad this has finally been recognised 🤣
Great video Al.
that comment proper made me giggle! :)
😂😂😂 these brands need to understand what the customer truly needs
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 🤣🤣
🌜 who else loves blue 🌛two of the best camping channels on CZcams u and blot outdoors show, you guys have something special 🦋
Finally, after a life time of camping, the Lego issue is sorted! I don't eat fruit as I'm a marsupial, and my preferred pronoun is "Oi, Skippy" Great looking tent, and as always The Lakes look wonderful. Don't forget the amazing Blue the smartest dog in the north. If I told my dog to go right, she would bring me a pencil.
😂😂😂 I need your dog often as I always lose my pencils
Awesome video brother! Those views from your camp were definitely epic man. Absolutely gorgeous! And that Terra Nova sure does look like a bomber of a mountain tent 👍 Thanks for sharing another great adventure Al! Cheers.....
Another excellent video, You and Blue always put a smile on my face with your adventures.
My cheeks hurt from smiling! Nice pitch and a very beautiful evening. Well done.
😂 awwwwwww thank you.
A champagne terra nova in the sky! Loving your work. 😀
😂 mint mate👌
Always a pleasure watching your wild camps B'man & Blue :)
hi i just discover this Chanel and its fantastic
I'm planning to start my trip long one about one year with back pack walk through uk big backpack more than normal gear
you are a inspiration because I'm a bit nervous before every think begins
Welcome! Good luck with your adventure. Sounds like a dream!
Love that tent, but like you say..with a view like that I’ll love to stay!
Was up on kinder scout this weekend, and a full first moon…..just as the sun slept the moon Was awoken in the darkness as a red I’ve never seen…….Never seen the moon so red.
This is why we do this ⛺️🥾⛰🍻👌
I love those nights! You always feel blessed
Credit to you blue trained to perfection a picture of a happy dog owner bond you share
"Blue, Right" - & he obeys.
11:10; love the overhead drone footage
23.50; a colorful & beautiful sunset.
With 10,000 hydroscopic barrier along with 70D material - definitely a 4-season tent that will handle most anything Mother Nature can throw up against it. I especially like that all pones are inside sleeves. Shelter from the storms.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.
Thanks Bill. Definitely a tough tent. I just need to test it properly 😉👌
U got some beautiful amazing shots of Blue on the rocks near the end Wow he looks so happy to b there ,100% in his element Wicked video 😎✌❤
Owned a quasar for 3 years now ... lived in it when I was in between houses for 3 weeks in October in Scotland ! The pole setup can be adjusted via the base mount rings , if the ground is uneven,
Bulletproof tent ! Worth every penny ! The 2 man is perfect for solo camping as the extra space is a mega bonus ! Expensive tent .... but I Saved £ 100 price matching when store shopping , looked after it will last a lifetime
Good effort living in it. It does prove that we all don’t need all the space in a house and can manage with less shit. I want to live in my shipping container 👌
Great looking tent, Terra Nova great quality. My TN is over 15years had no issues. Great video as always many thanks for sharing your adventures.
Great customer service too👌
That fence was pretty rotted out, nice hike.
Always interesting and beautiful videos. Love Blue. One of the coolest and most beautiful dogs.
What an amazing view😮 how on earth does Blue know left from right ?? Amazing dog ❤
Stunning Al
Looks awesome spot beautiful.
Love the look of that tent look bullet proof.
And good to share with 2 split the weight.
Cheers Graham
I am just in love with Blue, he is so well trained. And love what you do. It really is inspirational, thank you ❤
Thanks Sal. Worth putting the time in to training a dog so they are no hassle 😬
Fantastic views, Fantastic Tent and Fantastic Ariel shots. Thats the life.
That’s a sweet hill camp. Reminds me a lot of Angels Landing in Zions National Park here in Utah. 360° views.
What a spot Al - totally panoramic views over Langdale. I was up there this weekend myself - testing out all my old kit (sleeping bag/pad/trangia/pots etc) and my new Lanshan up at the NT site. Did a lovely walk up the band and over Bow fell & Esk pike and back via the tarn to the ODG where I rehydrated like 10 men!! (dehydration is a killer on a hot day....) Kit has had a full run out, it all fits in my old Lowe Alpine sack and I made the route without anything falling off or giving way :) happy days. All gear tested and ready for the off up into the hills - can't wait (just my luck the weather will turn now!! Haha......)
Excellent mate enjoy your adventures. The band is a long slog!!!
I've had a Quasar for years, totally dependable.
I've just noticed at the start u have taught Blue his left and rights amazing I've done the same with Fin and to be honest I really didn't think he would get it but 2 days later he pulled it off 🖒that was a year ago they are so special😁 loving your videos thank you ✌😎❤❤❤
Worth training them so it’s easier and safer😉👌
What a view.
Looking forward to seeing that tent pushed to the limit in seasons to come.
I pitched my 1993 Ultra Quasar on Friday night in the garden to escape the heat in the south-facing bedroom. Packing it up today I weighed it: inner, outer, poles, pegs & footprint = 4.2kgs
Great video as always Al - inspiring us to get out more!
Absolutely wonderful. What a view.
Weapons grade tents. Best I’ve ever had. Mine lasted 28 years. Bombproof just doesn’t cut it. If your up high in winter conditions or storms you want to be in one of these! Not the smallest or lightest to carry for 3 season wild camping for me these days though (not getting any younger! 😂).
28 years make the tent very cheap👌.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE yeah. My MSR Ventana retiring after 20 years. Just ordered a Terra Nova Pioneer 2. Now the exciting wait for the postman begins. 😜😆👍
👌
It was a tent I fancied when it came out, although overkill. Just too expensive for my pocket back then, I think around £500. Approaching 6 months wages then. It's heavy but would love to test it in really bad weather. Just can't justify the price for how often I'd use it, as I'd normally carry a lighter tent.
Great video as always and a nice trip down memory lane. .
It is the best tent ever ! I'm on my 3rd Super Quasar and it's just stable and sound proof. Sold the second to buy a Hilleberg Nammatj which was a massive mistake - hate that crap. Quasar is heavy at 4lbs, but you're safe in there. My B-in-law came in my SQ tent during a hoolie when his was being flattened and said the wind has just dropped .... no, it's the tent that doesn't flap, or move ! Hope to see more of yours.
😂 yes they are about as solid as you’ll find. Great design 👊
You weren't wrong Al, small hill Big View great video pal 👊👍🥃
Stunning views Al loved blue posing on the rocks👍
Cool wildcamp and some stunning views 🙂Hope Blue is ok, saw him limping a wee bit just as you were setting the tent up.
I think just a dead leg from being laid in the sand position😂
That was a B&B Master Piece ...!🙏 Stunning, awe- inspiring views to see, without harsh wind, deep snow or ya getting generally battered...!👀🤬👊😄 Although those are totally Epic Videos & proper Nuts...!😯🤣 But never again maybe...?!!🤔🙄 Awesome... I got a big tent wrecked on gusty hills in Hastings this week, proposer pisser, but now that's abit shagged, I got the best of my lightish weight gear in the rucksack, so ready to Rock&Roll to woods or hills now, time to get some legs on...!!!😄 Yep, made my Sunday...! I gotta get me some views like that....!✔️💯👍...
One of my favourite hills. Spent many along night in The Old Dungeon Ghyll planning tortuous routes for the next day. The next day arrived 🤮, Side Pike would suffice. Used to sit for hours recovering and taking in the stunning views. Top film Allen, the sunset looked pretty amazing on film. The Beautiful Blue was definitely in sleep mode for this one. 🐐 🐶 ❤
Side pike definitely hits the spot with little effort. Great part of the world👌
This is the tent I've been using for years brilliant in winter
The tabs on the pole crossing's inside inner tent are for paracord or accessory cord to go from one side to another and diagonally down the tent, to help brace it internally in very high winds. The North Face and other makers had the same webbing loops.
Interesting and I get how that would benefit👊
Stunning views..and lovely music sets the mood.
Excellent video yet again, i can't take in much of the scenery because I'm always on the look out for Blue chasing the drone lol 😂🐾👀💙
Terrific video Al. I think you need to check Blues leg. In one of the shots he was limping.😪
What a beautiful view! Just loved your camera views, especially at sunset, with you & Blue😊❤️
Excellent pitch with glorious views. Another brilliant video.😊
Beautiful scenery
nice to see you both back m8
Thanks for the video, what a great spot to pitch, the morning looked glorious.
Love you guys. Thought maybe spend a little time videoing inside the tent when you and Blue settle in for the night. Its that cozy time that the viewer enjoys the comfort of the experience. All in all, very nice. Haven't seen your completed VW camper yet. Take care.
Yes I agree. Sometimes though I just have to be present and enjoy it all😬
1.5k views in 2 hours. Way to go dude
what a camp! would love a lightweight version of the quasar,
Incredible views!!

Brilliant spot that Alan👌Great video 👍
Looking at that view, I thought that if I were rich, it would be money well spent to have a little house somewhere like that. You had to carry the little "house" with you, but what a place to spend some time. No doubt it's a good, solid tent, but it's really the location that takes one's breath away. Well, that and the price of the tent.
It would be lovely having a small cabin on as mountain😉👌
Lovely looking camp that Al.. impressed with Blue knowing his right and left.. he is a belter mate. Bit concerned that there was mo broccoli added to the meal.😂. As you know,I am partial to some time lapse and drone footage. Again this video had it all and its not a bad tent that is it. Totally enjoyed this one as usual buddy. Take Care and tha ks for sharing fella. 😊
Thanks Andy. It’s a lot safer teaching dogs these sorts of commands especially on challenging paths/scrambles. Broccoli will be in the next video 😂😂😂
Just rewatching some of your videos with my old fella who is a fell walker and he a tually has a picture that he shot himself of Blea Tarn from ground level featuring your camp and Pike of stickle in the background. Also after speaking to him and your later camp featuring camp at Pike of Stickle, my old fella and his pal a tally scattered of of there pals ashes up at pike of stickle as it was his last wishes about 10 years ago I think. If I can grab his picture of Blea Tarn I will dm you on twitter. Take care fella ayb Andy
Great tent. I’ve still use the smaller Wild Country Trisar. Quality materials and very stable
beautiful sensory blues enjoying himself love the tent👍👍
Lovely production. The views were indeed awesome.
Beautiful tent. Classic design. Can really sometimes appreciate an inner pitch first tent given that you can easily retighten everything and make it tight as a drum. This isn't really possible in tents that can up inner and outer together (Hilleberg). Makes for a much quieter night.
Yes there are always pros and cons. A very solid tent without any flapping 👌
l' d rather have a bit of noise and dry tent, than the opposite way round !
Your dog is amazing haha
Regarding the climbing and altitude... a bit of envy from me as I usually need to climb 1500 m+ elevation to find a place to pitch a tent. I live in suburbia whic is higher than most hills in your area 😊. Tx for a showcase of a tent legend.
There are some amazing low level camping spots that truly make you feel like you’re high in the mountains. Great for an easier night out😬
Best tent ever!
Excellent view!
Spot on Al & Blue 👍
Outstanding Al lad, what a cracking spot.
First climb I did in the lakes was side pike on a school trip many moons ago , superb views . You done well to get a pitch up there , not much room , I tried last year but tent was too big so I settled for a spot further along on lingmoor and missed the views you had but got a nice view of Windermere which was lit up red by a super moon rising and to top the night off a meteor shower so I was happy none the less
Sounds a special night! Great place to walk and great childhood memories 👌
Lovely cinematography Al 🙂
I love all your videos and that beautiful dog of yours.
Awesome.
Great Video like that
Blue is such a smart and sweet dog!!
Great content thank you ✌️🙏
Hi Al, Great last few videos 😊 you do know how to pick a good spot. I think I am going to check out Side Pike and plan an overnight camp at Pike of Blisco when I am up in July. I have booked a campsite near so will also plan a bit of a walk in as well. Good to see you back out again, have missed these videos, but the van does look good.
It’s a lovely area with loads of great walks. You’ll love it!
Best valley view in the Lakes ❤ Great video, Al & Blue awwww bless him, totally content ❤️🐾 Loved the time lapse of clouds rolling over the fells
Good to see you and blue out and about again Al ,cracking vid as allways ..mick, Lincs
I,ve tried them noodles Alan and there spot on ,that tent looks brilliant
Cracking tent nice video
Hey you two, great to see you out and about together, give the boy a hug from us. J&A&B&T
The quasar is the best bombproof tent I have used , it may be a little heavy but it’s worth it in use.
Thats where i park my car when I'm heading up Pike of Blisco or Bow fell. Great tents I've got an Ultra Quasar which they don't make no more. Bomb proof. Good to see Blue out great vid.
It's a cracking little spot for so little effort mate, good video and the quasar looks every bit the tank it's made out to be. Great to see my mate bluey having a chilled time 👌
Definitely a tough tent but I need to give it my proper test at some point 😅
Fantastic spot for a camp Al what a view.
Tent looks bomb-proof.
Would've thought you'did be more into Methanol tho 😊
I’ll have to test the tent properly in winter😉👌
Blue is getting very good at flying the drone
I have the Wild Country version, The Trisar. Fantastic tent but the weight means I ain't carrying it very far. I've been in campsites where the wind has flattened many tents but hardly moved this beauty, I love it!
We had a wild country years ago, army tents went down glenridding, we were fine
Definitely stronger than most tents out there👌👌👌
❤ this.
Perfect spot with the Beautiful Blue, what more could you want from life!! Lovely tent, but for the cost, I’d want you and Blue too!! 😂😂😂
😂 okay
I want the sticky toffee pudding! 😂 But I'd probably need a whole pen of insulin for it😢.
Nice to see you and the glorious Blue out and about.
😂 it’s not amazing but I do quite enjoy them.
Great to see u back again with bluey, got bertie beagle booked in for vets hoping he hasnt got cushings!!! He s 12 so hope not, excellent vid as per usual, hope u enjoyed your birthday
I hope he’s doing well👍
He had a dead leg once, vet diagnosed cruciate would have cost 4.1/2 grand, he didn't have any cruciates they pinned him six years ago!!!, Never totally trust vets!!!!
I my dad had the 1st tent from them he’s was the same type yellow and green no 40yrs on he 57yrs and he will not but but that tent at £1100 when his first was only £400 so some one in for. Big profits
I know what you mean and it seems hard to justify of course but £400 in 1980 is equivalent to around £2000 today in terms of purchase power, a pound today will get you about 20% of what it could back then.
I wonder how the Hilleberg Jannu would compare, it's semi geodesic and has only 1 vestibule but it weighs much less with smaller footprint.
I’d like to test one 😉👌
Loving the video Al, great to see blue too .I was only up there last week myself bagging the 7 peaks . Struggle which tent to get Al wished you hurry up with your 10/10 tent that’s in ya head 😂 when do you think you’ll get the design outta your head and onto paper and made ? Really need to be purchasing one soon want to mix it up with nights in campervan and nights in tent specially in the lakes and Scotland . Look forward to your next adventure til then stay safe 👊👊
😂 I might have to make one out of cotton so I can test the shape.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 😂😂
Great vid, a quick question have you ever tried or review the Slumit quick pitch tents ?
No I’ve not seen one.
When you rolled out tent and blue moved out of the way he was limping is he OK? Front right leg I think sorry just crazy dog lover!!! And he is beautiful 😍 😊
Love drone footage it's gorgeous!! 😮
Yes, I noticed that too. He seemed OK at the end though I thought 🤞
It was just a dead leg I think from him sleeping on it. Lazy days 😂
Yes he was OK after still think he should get a doggy massage for it!! Lol 😆 after all he is a star!! Beautiful Blue give him a hug from me please
Great vid as usual, did your tent poles and clothing get the same dress code memo 🧡💙🧡💙😂👍
😂😂😂 i just put that extra effort in 😂
Good 👍 video 👍 when u going on the road and do a video with blue and the motor?? Considering getting a Costway raised tent seen 1 @£200 will get it if I don't mind d camp @ my bushcraft course in a weeks time!!
Enjoy! You’ll love it
You had me when I realised blue knows left and right better than I do 😂
😂😂😂
