Wild Camping Gear For Summer | 2019 Setup.
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 07. 2024
- Video of my old summer wild camping gear that I used during the summer of 2019.
Decided to go backpacking for a summit wild camp on a Scottish Mountain (Munro) called Ben Vorlich.
The purpose of the video was to also share my thoughts on the clothing I wear and the equipment I use when I go out on my wild camping trips during the spring, summer and autumn.
In this film I try and give an explanation as to why I purchased them, use them as well as the item weights and the rough costs involved.
This is just to let people see what I use and not to be taken as definitive guidance, as everybody’s requirements are different. However this is what I have found works for me over the last few years of hiking and camping in the Scottish mountains.
As always thank you all for watching. RS

Super helpful kit recommendations! Your images are cracking too! I just wish Kent wasn't so far away from Scotland 😃
This is far and away the best 'whats in my bag' video I've seen - and I've seen dozens. Lovely to see the kit in action as well as explanations of why you include each piece.
Many thanks Curtis. Wasn't going to post it as I though it was a bit boring and long winded :)
You've got the best wildcamping youtube channel hands down.
Thanks, but not sure about that. Atb
Loved this Ray. Clicking on part 2 now. Thanks so much for making these. :)
Wonderful video. Thank you.
Many thanks. Atb

Thanks for watching Gerard. Atb
Nicely done vlog Ray, very informative and some handy tips. Enjoyed the pictures, and what a stunning place to wild camp. keep up the great work.
Cheers John and Atb.
Hi Ray. Cracking video. Always good to see what other wild campers have in their kit. I've been a big fan of Decathlon gear for a long time. It's great value and fit for purpose. I remember going to their stores in France years before they came over here. Really enjoyed seeing inside your rucksack Ray. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Tim. Atb
Nice place ray looks really well up there mate happy days spot on ray 👍⛺️ great wild camp too and gear. All good 🏴
Many thanks as always Alan and hope you get some epic trips this year as well. Long may the good weather continue before we hit straight into Autumn. Atb
a great informative video. thank you for sharing. (Hilleberg Soulo user here btw. a great tent, I got it from Edinburgh with a free footprint)
Cheers Paul. Still thinking about one ;) Atb
Man you have a way of putting things. I believe this is the first time i actually sat through a geartalk video without skipping! And a good camp! And yep, a lot of my stuff comes from Decathlon too.. the hunting section has nice stuff for wild campers..
Thanks very much for the kind words. Wasn't sure if it would be a good vlog or not and wasn't going to post it but as said above seems to have been well received. Atb
Hi , fairly new subscriber here and thoroughly enjoying your vlogs. I've just started getting back into hill wallking and your videos are inspiring me with new ideas of where to go.
Keep up the good work and looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Brian and hope my wee films are of help and inspiration. That's really what its about, sharing my journey and maybe inspire others. Atb
That’s a brilliant video mate!! Very informative and enjoyable. Superb images mate. What a place. 😊👍🏻⛺️
Many thanks Gareth and hope you get to visit this neck of the woods sometime :) Atb
great vid, really enjoyed it. Good alternative way of doing the typical "whats in my bag" type vid.
I managed to bag Ben Vorlich last week, great Munro.
Thanks mate. Its a nice walk and done it a couple of times but this was my first camp there. If the weather is kind the views are great. Atb
Excellent info on your gear Ray. I'm a big fan of Decathlon too. Their clothing fits me well being 6'3" and has been very durable. An excellent return policy too. Great views up to Ben Vorlich. Always welcome a wee breeze in Scotland during the summer months to keep the midges at bay.
Looking forward to the follow up mate................Take care. Andy. 😉👍👍👣👣
Thanks Andy. It is a good shop and majority of my stuff comes from them and done me very well. Dont need to spend a fortune on the big name brands to get some quality kit. Atb
Your best vid by a mile Ray, really informative and what stunning scenery. I use Decathlon for almost everything basically because here in Spain 2xxl is hard to get anywhere else. Their thermal long sleeved at just 6€ is the warmest I have found. The path back to the house looked amazing. Thanks for a great video look forward to part 2.
Cheers Mike and it was film I wasn't going to post but just goes to show. Atb
Love you're videos pal ,like you're wee tips on this one ,atb m8 cheers
Thanks Kodi, appreciated. Atb
excellent, great memories of doing that Munro walking in from Callendar, looking forward to part 2,, I was in Lewis last summer doing the Island string down to Barra, fantastic place, going back next year probably, super info thanks, will be checking out some of the gear you listed. Very interested in the camera waist belt/bag,,,
Thanks Jamie and glad it may help in some small way. Will do film about the bag in an upcoming vlog. Atb
Another great video. Thanks fro the gear review. Answered lots of my questions. Makes me home sick. Scotland is the most beautiful country in the world.
Thanks Richard and glad it makes you homesick ;).. must be doing something right with the film :) Many thanks for watching and Atb
Great stuff ray. I like a good kit list. Even though you said you go light there was loads of gear. I’ll be watching to see how you pack it all. I’m the worlds worst packer 😆 good to see you back in the tent in the mountains. Lovely backdrops to your narratives too. Ben vorlich is Now added to my list. Atb
Thanks Andy. Hope you are keeping well and Vorlich would be a great trip for you. Really nice straight walk in but if the weather is kind, stunning 360 views. Hopefully bump into yourself and Eddie at some point this year. Atb
Superb video Ray. Lots of very useful info in there. I've followed up on a few. You got a bit of photography in. Many thanks. Mark
Cheers Mark and hope you are keeping well as always. Great to see your Vlog's as well. Atb
A pleasure Ray. I'm still changing but staying healthy - loving your videos. Peace!
Excellent ‘how to’ vlog and in a great style. Couldn’t have timed this better for my first wild camp of 2018 this weekend. It was also brilliant to see Ben Vorlich’s views as my last trip (and vlog) was ruined by clouds at the summit. Great vlog as always 👍🏼
Many thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it. Wasn't sure how this film would be received to be honest but seems to have gone down well. Atb
Renegade Scot At first I thought 18 minutes! but it's always a time to chill watching your videos and this was done really well. Great work 👍🏼
Great video again and interesting for me as a beginner. Everything is light weight so I've started small by going for a titanium cup like yours 😂
Take care and thanks for your amazing camera work. 😊👍
Good stuff!
Stunning Photograph from the top...Thoroughly enjoyed this one :-)
Cheers Stuart, it was a great wee trip. Atb
I hope to do a bit of overnight camping myself this year Ray, think at this time of year (Summer) its the best way as you can catch a sunset then be on location the next morning for a sunrise, I'm not a hardened venturer like yourself, but would like to do more, especially during the summer months (Bit of a fair weather camper)...lol
Hey Ray fame at last.. (I'm the guy that pestered Ray to make it.) I can understand why you hesitated to make and post it. But like others have all ready said, you made it interesting and enjoyable. Looking forward to part 2.
Cheers bud and hope to have second one done fairly soon. Atb
Nice part 1 Ray :-) JC
Great! 👍🏻
Many thanks Jamie. Atb
Best one yet bud mainly coz I’m nosey 👌
Ha, ha, many thanks. Atb
Great video.
Many thanks James. Atb
Solid system ,thanks for Sharing Ray. Encouraging me to try to go lighter. ATB fellmandave
Go for it! Atb
Awesome video Ray. I good to know what people carry when out in the wilds and camping overnight. I watch a guy called Dave Morrow and he has just done a similar video. Loved the image. I assume you are not using the A7 anymore, I remember one of your previous videos on that subject. Looking forward to part 2 and the Harris video!!
Tim Blake i do like Mr Morrow.
Thanks Tim. yes I am sticking with the Sony A6300 for now to do both the photography and filming, spaced with my B-Roll camera. Like the compact size but at times the Sony colours are killing me for both images and stills. My Nikon D7200 seemed to have better colours. May have a work around on this and trying different things that I may do vlog on. It was my first time to Lewis / Harris and is one of the nicest places in Scotland I have ever visited.
I find a tube of sis hydration tablets invaluable in keeping me going added to filtered stream water
Great tip! Atb
Very informative video, I've been wondering for a while what you carry on your mountain trips. I'm just back from a camp on Carn a' Mhaim and I did a video on my kit list while I was there - the wild camp thing seems to be a popular theme on the landscape photography channels right now. I suspect your bag is very much lighter than mine though!! Lovely images as well, nice soft light over the mountains.
Thanks for watching Douglas. I have been doing with wildcamping and munro bagging for a long time now and it was the filmmaking that got me into photography. As you say more photographers are going the other way and getting into the wild camping. Atb
I think that shows in your vlogs, you have hill knowledge that most don't as (me included) others tend to use the camera as the reason to head for the wild, empty places. I did hillwalking years ago, then stopped. Then I started being more serious about my photography and, being inspired by the mountain photographers, I now find I'm back in the hills with a camera. Looking forward to part 2 and then the Harris episodes!
14.18 love the image
Many thanks. Atb
Really enjoyed the vid , great to see what other phots carry . What tripod do you use as my manfrotto with head is about 1.7 kg far to heavy . ATB Dave 👍🏻
Hi Mate. Will talk about it in my next part. Atb
Hi Ray, I love all your info and hiking videos, I'm new to it so just starting out! Something I did want to know though is, what kind of mic are you using in this video, the sound's really clear considering where you are, thanks in advance 👍
Hi Watty, I use the Rode SmartLav+ lavalier microphone with adapter into Sony UX560 Audio recorder. Also have Rode Video Micro on camera as backup. Hope that helps. Atb
Lovely video and images. What is the orange chest rig bag you use please?
It is a really old item now called a RibzPack from Ribzwear in the USA. Think it only comes in black now. Atb
Always enjoy a what's in my bag video but you presented it in a great way. I'm assuming you were using the a6000 to take your shots? (Great shots btw!)
Hi Jamie. Yes have gone back the way to the A6300. Using it for the photography and filming but may change again in the future. If I was selling prints or making a living from the shots then I would consider a possible upgrade, but for me as a hobby it was getting too expensive. At times the Sony can be a pain but it is the best all round camera for mew at the moment and maybe see what evolves with the A6700 if it is ever released. Atb
I hear those handwarmers are good for keeping due off lenses.
OneEyedPhotographer Yes just hold on with elastic bands. Last about 5-6 hrs
I been pondering what rucksack to get for my first wild camp for ages. I been looking at 65-70 Ltr one tho and after seeing the Marmot Graviton you got, well that looks ideal because I'm only going to be out one or two nights per trip. So thats what I'll be getting Ray lol. Btw has it got a rain cover?. Atb, Mark :-)
Sorry just seen message. The rucksack does not come with rain cover. However everything I use is in its own waterproof sack or if I know it is gong to be very wet I but in a large rubble sack / bin bag inside first as a liner, then put everything inside that. Atb
Renegade Scot I bought one anyway Ray and am up Pen Y Fan with it now on my first solo WC... ⛺️ 😁👍🏻
truckertaff Hope it serves you well.
Hello sir, what size is your top... I am normally a 42" with a belly haha
Hi Paul. It is a Eu and UK medium. Need to loose a few pounds that I put on since Christmas as I am starting to burst out of it :). I am a 42" as well. Atb
Thanks for going through all the gear..my camera bag with tripod weighs 9.5kg..you must be hauling about 15kg when camping?? 😩
No where near that. One of the benefits of going with the mirrorless A6300. All will be revealed in part 2. ;)
Thin soil up there. What do you do for a crap...no burial opportunities up there?
When I am out I usually have my plastic trowel and sometimes even take dog poo bags that I ziplock and bring back ;) However the small amount of food I eat when out never progress to worrying about that situation very often. Atb
I want one of your camera bags not for my camera think it will stop the need of holding my stomach in
Ha, ha, it is very handy for that. Will do a film on it soon but it looks like they don't make them anymore. You need to keep an eye out on Ebay and such likes for one to come up for sale.
