  • An unplanned adventure in the Lake District heading to anywhere to use my 3F UL Lanshan 2 Pro tent for the first time. I squeezed it in on a cliff face pitching incorrectly but the only way it would go.
    I LOVE THIS TENT! I was surprised at how good it is and how easy to pitch. I wasn’t expecting it to be this good and I’ll definitely be using it more often especially because it’s lightweight and has loads of head height and room for Blue and I.

    Hi Al. Your videos inspired me to wild camp for the first time since I was a kid. I camped at Red Tarn and Sprinkling Tarn last month. Both were incredible. I even convinced my teenage son to get off his PS4 and come with me. Your passion for the outdoors is contagious ! Thanks.

    Trekking poles will save your knees. This will make a difference later on in life. I find they give me 10% more power going up and more safety, less jarring of knees and more speed going down.
    Great video as usually. I think Solo Summiteer put me on to you.

      Yes it would be good to get out for a camp with Dave. We are quite similar and he’s one of the few channels I watch. Trekking poles aren’t for me yet😂. Being a fell runner they just seem a hinderance at the minute.

    You make everything look so straightforward. The tent looks like a great option for the summer months. The poles are great for taking pressure off the knees on descents and always take them with me because of this. Not all of us are racing snakes. The OMM chest pod is now on my shopping list. Great video. ATB.

    Greetings from New Zealand. I've been enjoying a few of your videos and I had to comment on this one. I grew up in Glenridding and have relatives who farm at Hartsop, with upland grazing from Angle Tarn over the High Street ridge and round to the top of Kirkstone. It's still the centre of my universe, even though I live rather far away these days. Usually make a trip back most years but Covid has scuppered things for the moment. Hopefully 2022! In the absence of international air travel it's lovely to see you so thoroughly enjoying this beautiful corner of Britain - that was a top hidden spot you chose to pitch. I hope those sheep you heard bleating weren't too unruly, they were fairly likely ours!

  • @JackKlumpass

    I am a recent convert to using bottom section for tent n gubbins too. I was always heard that tent in top in the interest of heavier stuff at top n first out on arrival and last away when striking camp but tbh the tent in bottom has suited me both times I’d done it that way without detriment. I thought I’d watched this one already but hadn’t! Great vid as usual mate - enjoyed the bluesy guitar bit too👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    For me trekking poles is a seasonal and situational thing. I find them really useful in steep terrain, especially in winter conditions (context: I live in Sweden (icy and snowy conditions), but I don't climb mountains, so an ice pick is a little bit overkill for me). Acts as additional points of contacts with the ground while standing up.

    Yep. Makes no sense to me either to put a sleeping bag in the bottom compartment. That's where my tent and cooking gear goes (nope never crushed anything). I love Lowe-Alpine, I bought the Cerro Torre 65:85 for a month wild camping in the Dolomites. An amazing pack that carries a lot of weight (26kgs with all my camera gear) beautifully.
    Poles : couldn't hike without them. They've saved me from umpteen falls (clumsy doesn't come close to describing me) and are superb when fording rivers or crossing boulder fields in the rain.

    One day you'll come round to using at least one pole as a balancing aid:) I use a mld duomid single pole tarptent which is even lighter/simpler than this and is mountain weather bombproof .. lovely Merle and no doubt a very good hotdogwaterbottle .. which means a lighter sleeping bag can be used, certainly the case with my black and white jobbie:)

    I require trekking poles for anything more challenging than an escalator. But I have seen people use these tents with carbon fibre tent poles, which would be a fraction of the weight and easier to carry. Worth considering if you enjoy the tent as much as you loath trekking poles!

    Unsure if anyones mentioned below but the door guylines are supposed to be pegged out the same as how the end ones are, having the same line running from where the pole is at the top out to peg, then back to the bottom of the doors. Its a brill tent. I have the none pro with a 4 season inner.

  • @colingordon4

    Answe to your question about who ever Larry was 😂
    There are two commonly espoused contenders. One is the Australian boxer Larry Foley (1847 - 1917). Foley was a successful pugilist who never lost a fight. He retired at 32 and collected a purse of £1,000 for his final fight. So, we can expect that he was known to be happy with his lot in the 1870s - just when the phrase is first cited.
    The alternative explanation is that it relates to the Cornish and later Australian/New Zealand slang term 'larrikin', meaning a rough type or hooligan, that is, one predisposed to larking about.
