- A BEGINNERS GUIDE to WILD CAMPING. A look at the main things to consider and the essential kit to take with you on your first solo camping trips.
♦️ Sleeping kit♦️ Food and water ♦️ Clothing
♦️ Location to pick ♦️ Test your kit ♦️ Weather
RED TARN in the Lake District is a perfect place for an early wild camping adventure. Plenty of places to pitch your tent and a fairly easy hike to get there from Patterdale. A mountain experience with tranquility without being too extreme.
This is my take on wild camping for beginners and although I haven’t included everything you need to know, hopefully you’ll pick up a bit of positive advice to add to your knowledge and understanding.

You are absolutely wiping the floor with every other UK CZcams channel... You and Blue are going to be HUGE on CZcams and rightly so! Keep the videos coming... Love em 👍
W O W !!!
I’m lost for words! That’s the most immense compliment I’ve ever received. Thank you so much 😊. I definitely want to be an integral part of the wild camping community so I’ll take ‘HUGE’ and do the best I can.
Honestly Thank you.
a tip : you can watch movies at KaldroStream. Been using it for watching loads of movies these days.
@Brecken Reginald definitely, been watching on kaldroStream for since december myself :)
@Brecken Reginald yea, I've been using kaldroStream for months myself :)
@Brecken Reginald definitely, I have been watching on kaldroStream for years myself =)
I have to add my comments to all those that I am in praise of you mate. Ever since I have discovered your channel, I have been blown away by not just your availability and skills in camping and tracking and hiking but also your total humanity and your love for nature and animals. You are an awesome human being and an inspiration.
I’m 60 years old enforces and been out 9 years , thought after watching your video I’d give it a bash from hartsop, oh what a mare. Went the steepest way up, so blowing out my arse after 20 mins, that bad I never made it all the way up due to starting late, ended up pictching half way up on a slope. Got through the night with great star show and scenery, coming back down I felt like a clown with piles. Now in a warm bath and fixing my first challenge to do some more in a couple of weeks, the tarn was full of kids so kept to myself. If it wasn’t for your videos I’d be a right couch potatoes, your right , the scenery and sense of accomplishment is priceless. Thank you bro
How can people give this a thumbs down ? A brilliant guide for the first timer .
Thanks John! I tried to keep it no nonsense but real. I just hope people can at least take something from it. I guess the thumbs down is because they’ve never seen a unicorn and therefore don’t believe. 😂
Thats the no nonsense Tyke in you just like myself ,can't stand pretentious people with egos where in Yorkshire ? I was born in Middlesbrough but have lived in Inverness for the last 50 years, 10 minute walk and I am in the back of beyond !
North Yorkshire in the dales. I love Scotland I will be heading up again in summer!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE well you know they say in Yorkshire if you are going past my door KEEP ON GOING !
Just watched this and I am hooked, I'm 55 been very ill recently and this is def my future. Thanks
Brilliant video mate and thanks for the advice I was looking to go up to foggy mountains but I’m not going to risk it now I’m just going to go to a small and easy one thanks again
Big respect to you , I used to do a lot of wild camping but due to a serious accident 5 yes ago mobility is a real struggle for me but watching your vids had the memory's flooding back , not to sound soppy lol but I relived my hikes by watching yours as a result I subbed , great vid keep them coming
Mate that means a lot! I’m really glad you get to enjoy my adventures. I’ll have to keep filming more! Cheers John
First class, thanks for all your information, it will get used 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for some no nonsense advice. I am gradually getting kit together!
There are so many opinions out there for wild camping that it gets confusing so I’m glad you appreciated some of my advice. Kit is a lot cheaper for summer so better to get started now. Then come winter you’ll have a bit more experience and you may spend on the winter essentials nearer the time.
BEST BEGINNER GUIDE I've watched. Great video and great tips. Starting my wild camping adventures this year hopefully in the next few weeks. Angle Tarn is now 100% on my list of camp spots. Thanks
I hope you have an amazing time. Angle tarn is a great one as there are lots of pitches for a tent. Just leave no trace! And make sure you promote that too to anyone else! Enjoy!
A fantastic video really good advice for everyone not just beginner
Oh thanks. I was hoping everyone would at least get one tip from it.
This has been one of my favourite vids so far, and I've watched loads of different people. Well done keep up the good work, ill be tuning in.
Oh good. Your feedback definitely helps knowing I’m doing the right thing. Loads more to come!
Been watching various you tubers wild camping for the past few months and this video was very informative and inspiring cheers looked a great spot!
I’m just hoping to help people out even with one or two tips. Thank you so much!
Really enjoyed your vlog. I found it refreshing that you were happy to share the experience with other campers. It’s the simple stuff that really makes us all happy.
Most people outdoors are like minded and happy so I always enjoy talking to others. Wild camping is as simple as you get which just makes it so relaxing and mind clearing. I love it!
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I get it completely.
Hi Al
Great vid to watch for beginners and for everyone really
Good learning experience
I enjoyed it
Thanks for the hints on the little discussed toilet arrangements 👍
Glad I could help by out with your toilet duties 😂
Only Six minutes into this video and already mightily impressed esp about camping, first time, in a garden with all your kit. Thank you so, so much for this and the other brilliants sets of advice, like....taking a first-aid kit; and telling next of kin where you're headed etc
I’m glad it was helpful! Every one has different thoughts and opinions but taking a bit of positivity from different sources always helps. Hopefully all my videos you’ll pick something up from. 😊😬
What a stunning morning that looked! Perfect conditions😃..great video again, and the deer, unreal! Top job🤘
Cheers Paul! It was actually a perfect camp out one that I’ll always remember. 😬
Invaluable info for a complete noob like myself. Great video Bushman. Many thanks.
Great I’m here to help the noobs! 😂 really glad that you’ll take something from it. 😬
Thanks very much for this. I'm returning to wild camping after years away so I wanted a refresher. - Great video mate so thanks . One thing I've always taken in gaffer tape in my kit. Great for mending most bits of kit and body parts from cuts to strengthening ankles after a sprain (and I'm sure it would help out with runners nips as well, as long as you put something under the tender bit lol) Thanks again mate, really enjoyed it.
Definitely! I always have insulation tape to wrap up any cuts but a proper duct tape is better for tent and jacket repairs.
Thanks Dave!
You are awesome mate , thanks for the tips . Going camping with my boys in the summer for the first time. Can’t wait 👍🏼
Brilliant enjoy it. They will definitely love it👊
Absolutely love your videos, keep up the great work! You've convinced me to buy the abisko 1 in the near future.
It’s a great tent and you won’t be disappointed. I’m actually laid in it now in the Yorkshire Dales!
Hi, yes it may be obvious and common sense to most but out of the hundreds of wild camping CZcams videos I have seen, you are the first one to talk about "The morning ritual" so well done you.
As always, you and Blue have been a brilliant watch.
Cheers, Tom
Yes it’s not really talked about but hopefully people use common sense and respect the earth😉👍👍👍
Smashed it, really informative, seen loads of guides but still learnt things from this!
Excellent! Glad you can take something from it. I’m hoping to inspire others to get out in it all, enjoy it safely and look after our countryside.
Thanks.
Excellent video. Great that you got the weather.
I just filmed what was there! It was an amazing night and great to meet new people with the same interests. It’s good for the soul!
Thank you so much, put a huge smile on my face. Can't wait to get out there again and you've boosted my confidence for a hike instead of camping near the car. I hope I get to see a unicorn too ...
😂😂😂 definitely get out to see the unicorns 👌
“Only thing you can leave here is a bad mood” absolutely love that
Oh yes I forgot about that but definitely 👍👍👍
Brilliant vid. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you
Good mate. Hopefully it helps a little👍👍👍
10 out of 10 for this video! Thank you for this informative video. I can't wait to go wild camping. What an amazing place to camp.
Thanks mate. Get some gear together and get out in some good weather👌
🌜🦋🦋 you and blue are loved by lots of people all over the world, I love watching your vids and you are going to get lots and lots of subscribers, you guys deserve it 🦋🦋🌛
Thanks my friend. I love ve the respect you have for our planet. Your humble and you seem to realize that mother nature is alpha and we are just living in it and need to respect Her! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and adventures! Take care friend.
It’s exactly that👊👌
I've been wild camping now for over 40 years and still found your video inspiring. Excellent filming and editing. Totally sound, comprehensive advice presented in a carefully considered way. Testing gear first in a safe environment is such crucial advice. I would also advise familiarising oneself with, for example, zips and draw cords on jackets (while standing in a shower!). Also, take a suitably sized bottle to pee in at night, especially if it's raining, and a cloth in case of spills! A microfiber towel is very useful to remove condensation from the fly inner, as well as for getting dry after tarn swims.
Thanks for a superb piece of work.
Cheers Al. Hopefully it will assist a few more people to enjoy their lives that little bit more👊👍
Brilliant video and sound advice - many thanks!
This was great, thank you! Informative, inspiring, and beautiful shots.
😊 exactly what I’m wanting to achieve! I’m glad it helped you.
Another cracking film.. you do such a great job with the filming and capturing the atmosphere.. you had some beautiful weather and light. Great job 😃
Thanks Nick! Honestly it was actually perfect! The two lads I met were a perfect attribute to the video too and they loved every minute.
This was an absolute top guide for a beginner wildcamper. Thanks for the great advice. I'll start easy with an overnighter, but this spot is definitely on my list now! (no trace ninja style)
Thank you I’m glad you’ll take something from it and no trace ninja style will always give you good karma!
very well filmed and explained. Many thanks really enjoyed.
I’m just hoping I can help people to enjoy wild camping safely. Thanks.
Im over the moon with your advice cheers Allen & blue
Good stuff. 👍
Superb video Al, many thanks.
I keep putting off Wild Camping, hopefully this will give me the kick up the a### I need. Cheers
Just do it! You’ll go once and then realise it’s so easy and brilliant for the soul. Just pack a bag ready then just have f##k it moment and just go do it somewhere local.
Thanks mate.
Thank you for posting !!! AND the gear list ! Still putting my first time solo kit together.
Cheers from the USA !
H.
I’m glad you appreciate it. Definitely get out soon and test the kit out! You’ll love it.
Now then Bushman been following your channel - loving the quality of the filming and great chitter chatter too. I have an awesome 14yr old Terra nova ultra quazar 2 man and it’s so good in all conditions it can take up a bit of room in the pack though so I have been impressed to see the more wintery conditions you have had your fjallraven abisko lite 1 tent out in - I have bit the bullet and ordered one now to slim down my solo pack size a touch - cheers for your videos they have helped me work on my super light efforts 👍👍
You’ll love the tent and won’t be disappointed! Fjallraven are an awesome high quality brand and as said will slim down your pack. I’m glad I’ve helped you choose your tent!
Enjoy it!
I watched your videos many times this one actually I watched before when I had my old phone it didn't transfer my information from CZcams to this phone. I'm glad you watched it because I learned so much from you I'm 63 years old and I am retired I just enjoy your adventures and all the efforts you put into it especially in Scotland when you're up on that spine of the mountain in what you could have just felt either side at any time. You are a great inspiration to me as many other bushcrafters are as well I watch many hours of other bushcrafters and hikers. I have learned many things about England camping areas such as Dartmoor the lake district the Wainwright trails and Wales. As you say be safe leave no Trace you don't bite up more than you can chew LOL keep up the great work I will continue to watch your videos religiously! Your friend everything be safe and leave no Trace
Thanks Dave much appreciated 👊. I like helping people out and inspiring them. I think everyone can learn at least one thing from everyone out there👍
Great Vlog - thanks for the heads up.
Hopefully you’ll take something positive from my video! 😬
Great vid! I’m off on my first solo wild camp in 2 weeks also having done a lot of walks but not stayed out on my own yet. Really hope I get the weather you have there. Thanks for the footage and il be adding one of them shovels to my kit 😂
I hope you have an awesome first night out! You’ll love it and whatever the weather you’ll learn something from the experience! Enjoy!
Amazing video - my wife and I love watching you & blue. We have a aussie shepherd who loves watching too.
Cool! I’m glad you’re enjoying my channel 😊
i cant do a thumbs up for the new guys so i will do it in writing hope they have many great wild camps in the future i remember my first wild camp i was alone couldn't find a place to camp and ended up pitching my tent in the thickest fog i have ever seen in total darkness i did do tons of research before so i did have the right gear and a head torch it was an adventure and i had tons of fun with it i think i was like 13 at the time so many years ago and now i camped in all conditions all over the world .... if you ask me any adventure is a good adventure just go out and enjoy nature and enjoy the world its gonna make you love it more ...... another good videos from you keep up the good work ...... best regards from scandinavia
You learn so quickly over those first few camps so worth the experience 😉👍
Thanks for making this video. I live in New Zealand and want to start getting into nature and go camping more. Thanks :)
Well NZ is a lovely place to get out and enjoy it all. My brother lives on the South Island so I’ve explored some beautiful parts of it. Next time I go I’ll take my tent and wild camp😬. My aim with my videos is to inspire others to get out and enjoy it all so it’s nice to get the feedback 😊.
Thanks Amy.
Golden advice
Awesome video and a great deal of very sound advice.
Thanks just trying to help people have a better understanding.
Good morning flower.
Top man. A extremely informative video. You have such an infectious enthusiasm.
You are a inspiration to all.
Take care, keep safe and keep smiling. Cheers.Pete.
Thanks Pete I’m glad you appreciate it. I’ll definitely keep smiling😬👍
Mega video. From a newbie whos got his first wild camp Tuesday. Cheers!
Mega is a great word! Thanks man and a totally good luck and enjoy your first camp. 😬😬😬that’s my excited face for you!
Apologies for finding you channel as late as I have - it is by far the best channel I have come across for this type of stuff. Such a great message and reminder for the more seasoned wild camper. If we all live by these rules there would be far less 'Dicks' in the world and far more healthy Unicorns. Keep up the great work. 👍
Wow thanks mate! It’s nice being the best channel 😂👌. I’ll have to keep the quality high! In fact I’ll have to raise the bar😉😊
Great place to camp. Camped there after seeing you and blue near high raise about three weeks ago..
Some good sound advice. Keep making the videos
Ace! I’m glad I’m helping people get outside and enjoy it all!
Thanks mate say hi anytime!
I’m heading up to the lakes over the bank holiday, wild camping for three nights (first time), your videos have been a great help. 🤙🏻
Brilliant I’m glad you’ve got some tips from me. I hope you have the best time! You’ll love it!
You may need to refer to the Lake District National Park Authority regulations. Wild camping for more than a single night, even with the landowner's permission, is illegal.
@@Brian-om2hh
My comment was three months ago, I wild camped in three separate locations, chill out.
Great video Al. Think you covered just about everything there 😎👍
Thank you my friend! We have to influence others in as positive and safe way as possible. It was a perfect night and meeting the two first time out wild campers really helped the video! Great lads.
Loved this. Heading out for my first wild camp (Dartmoor) this weekend - thanks for the tips! :)
Brilliant Sophie! I hope your camp went well and you are hooked and excited for the next one👍👍👍
Must've missed this one, Al. Hugely enjoyable as always. Cannot believe that although I've been camping for years the beanie cap over the eyes idea has never even occurred to me! 😀Love my trekker chair. Only just recently acquired. That's gonna make such a huge difference when the long nights arrive. Totally agree with you about the down jacket. I've never worn mine to actually walk in but it's a godsend when relaxing at the end of the day; just to complete the "dunlop tyre man" look I've got the matching trousers for winter.
Best wishes.
The trousers are a dream in winter👌. I always think that you can learn something off everyone 👍
Thanks for the information about how to start out I’ll be trying my new tent out in my friends back garden and then I’ll see if I can do it on my own and then I’ll venture out further afield. I’m doing this because I have mental health problems. But it’s going to get out and make me feel better. You and blue are my friends and my inspiration. Thank you for the great information it’s great to have some ideas and give me the inspiration to get out and about thanks John
Brilliant mate 👊. It will be a very positive hobby to enjoy. Good luck with it all 👍👍👍
Been addicted to watching your Vids, Mate; I just bought my 2nd tent for a solo wild camp.
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Get that tent used👊
Brilliant video man. You've definitely got a new fan and subscriber here 👌🏻
Thanks and welcome to my channel! Plenty of videos for you to get stuck in to. Enjoy!
Al
Another great video mate.
I'm hoping to get out this week for an overnight wild camp in the Lakes. Along with my Jetboil I also carry a couple of flameless ration heaters which are brilliant for boil in the bag food and can also double as a hand warmer in the colder nights. I also carry 2 hats, 1 beanie for cold days/nights and 1 baseball cap to keep the sun off the face.
Enjoy it! I’m hoping to be in the lakes over the weekend. It looks dry and still!
the mozzies will be loving that tent lamp haha deffo a few coils needed too for the summer maybe
great video mate!!
Fantastic video....great advice! 👍🏻
Thanks dude!
I'm not a beginner at wild camping but there is always room for learning and revisiting the basics. I really enjoyed this. Subbed. 🤠✌️
Welcome mate! Enjoy the rest of my adventures and your own. I’m glad you’re the type that is open to learning. There’s too many know all’s!!!
All the best
Al
@@BUSHMANandBLUE haha you'll always find those types in anything lol. If we don't listen we won't learn. 🤠✌️
If I ever start some sort of forum you’ll be straight invited! 👍👍👍
great tips and advice on wildcamp if especially leave no trace.
Well we all have to spread the word and abide by the leave no trace! Thank you.
Great info thanks 😊
This is a great vid very inspirational !
Great tips! You are the second person on CZcams lately that says, familiarize yourself with a map. Don't rely on your phone. Additionally, know how to use a compass. Thanks for the tips!
Very good advice good video
The deer were beautiful. What a moment.
Lucky 😬😬😬
Terrific video, and WHAT a day to be out in the Lakes. That was a joy to watch. I’m just beginning my wild camping journey (I’m on Dartmoor) and this video was great. Thank you! Unfortunately, Dick has also been to Dartmoor and bought their friends 😡 Good effort on the fell race too!
Thank you so much Paul! I wish you all the best with your wild camping adventures. You’ll love it and feel the physical and mental health benefits straight away. Dick needs some education!
I loved the video. I would add a tip of always checking the weather forecast before leaving on a trip. This includes up country if travelling near rivers or caving etc.
Yes I always check and always take kit to suit worse than predicted. It’s often wrong. 👍
Absolutely do not leave a note in the car window, a perfect invite to thieves.
I do occasionally think about that so I don’t date the message and generally say ‘back tomorrow, meaning you could be back at anytime like any other vehicle. I’m more bothered about keeping locals happy so leaving your number is safest. Thieves suck!!!
Hi feom Australia. Usually National Parks have signs warning not to leave any valueables in the car to temp theiving. And even modern cars can do with a good old steering lock to put off theives as well. Wheel clamps aren't expensive and I have been considering this if I would have to leave the car remote or more than a day.
Hi to Australia! Probably my farthest away watcher! I’ve never had a problem but these thieves need their hands chopping off 😂.
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I love watching colder places. Had to smile when you said it was a warm 22'. That is a daytime winter temperature here at the moment!
😂😂😂
Very informative thanks, The go to You tube channel ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks mate! I need everyone to think that👊
Awesome advice 😉👍 just subscribed to your channel, my first wild camping was when I was 15yrs old and 42 yrs later getting back into it again, did my first winter camp in -6 in December before lockdown and was super hot and very comfortable... I have 4 different type of tents that I've used for bike packing trips, and usually have a base tent when I go to camp site, for when I'm explore the mountains on my gravel bike or mountain bike... but this year I'm going to do some serious wild camping, as I've postponed my trip to France which I was going to do the Tour Du Mont Blanc and starts in Chamonix, so this year I'm planning some routes around North Wales and Scotland in July, fingers crossed 🤞the weather should be great by July.. Great vid .. loved it .. many thanks 😊🙏
Sounds like you’ll need an extra brain to store all your new up coming memories! It’s great you have plans ahead which are challenging but thrilling. You’ll love it! Good luck with it all and enjoy our British weather!😂
Looks like an awesome trip out 👍
They are all pretty awesome but that was special!
Amazing video with great tips.
Thanks I’m glad you took something positive from it!
Good advice mate. Had my first wild camp there, was a freezing february night, sleeping bag and mat weren't up to scratch, slept in all my clothes, still loved it though ha. Beautiful place.
You learn quickly what kit works and mainly what doesn’t!😂
Well done. I feel like I have been on the wild camp. Well done.
Glad you liked it. I always hope that people feel like they have been there with me. 👍
Well Al, proper enjoyed watching this video. Only just started watching your channel after seeing you camp out with Chris from MCM. Enjoying your content and Blue is damutznutz proper well behaved. Anyway back to the video. Learnt a lot from this video. Haven't Wild camped yet but have been buying bits as and when I can. I live 300 miles from the Lakes but do manage to get up there to family camp once a year which is better than nothing. Thanks again mate and keep up the good work. May even bump in to you on my first Wild camp 👍
Thanks Arron! A warm welcome to my channel and I’m glad already you are getting something from it. The the lakes are lovely for wild camps but wild camping wherever actually gives you such a lovely feeling and connection with the outdoors.
Enjoy!
Great information. Thank you. Subscribed
Good man and thank you!
Very Nice.Enjoyed it Very Much. 😊😊😊
Thank you! There will always be more videos to come!
Fantastic video one of the best 👌
Thanks man! Big compliment 😬😊👍👍👍
Top video, cheers for the tips
Thanks Neil.
Awww cute dog !!!
You know it! It runs in the family right?! 😂😂😂
top vid fella
Love this video! Your dog is a laugh!! Sending a like love and sub from Ireland 🇮🇪
You want to see him on a video coming shortly! ‘Laugh’ is not a word I’d use for him! Thank you my Irish friend
Oh a long one, nicely do. Keep them comming mate 😊
Always more to come!
You and Haze are awesome with your videos and advice .. thank you. Its a double edged sword though, videos like this inspire and educate but also during lock down I believe the popularity of you tube and vids on wild camping has also had a negative effect. I am no expert and just play at it but I have done motorcycle adventures with wild camping for years and started doing more hiking the last 4 or 5 years and it was almost like the best kept secret and done by like minded people. Now though, there are more and more people whose camping is all about how many cans of ale and bottles of red can be chugged, roaring fires and burning steaks ... I know I risk being a right tart about this but honestly, never known such disregard for litter, noise, damage and just upping and leaving everything ... but 15 mins of Go Pro footage in the can ... I hope it all settles back down as Prague reopens for stags and Go Outdoor membership cards run out ... told you I would rant like a tart 😷😋 ... I know that you guys who have always done it right will always tell it right as well and call out such tools ... I guess we cant be too upm our own ar*es about it all? I just prefered pre-you tube but watch these vids all the time, can't win 🤣 cheers.
Lock down has definitely lead to more fly camping but none of those types watch CZcams videos for inspiration. The people who watch I would say are generally true wild campers or wannabe true wild campers. I feel in today’s society there is too much time spend off the natural earth so inspiring people to get outside and re connect with nature is one of the main ways to combat several physical and mental conditions that too many people suffer with. I think certain CZcamsrs promote this well and are helping people live happier lives and to be more respectful to Mother Nature. Soon the ‘fly camping’ lot will be back doing their thing elsewhere but if it continues I’d be happy with very hefty fines or more importantly community service by cleaning our National parks.
Thanks for your message.
Al
@@BUSHMANandBLUE No worries mate ... we can't let them spoil it ... will be back out in two weeks on Credigon and looking for a little spot for a pitch no doubt ... cheers bud
Loved this video!!
sorry seemed to have missed this message. So glad you enjoyed it! plenty more to watch! ☺️
Great Video!! 💯💯💯
Thanks mate.
Top advice.
Thanks. Just trying to help people get started in the right way!
Super advice.
Just trying to help 😬
Thanks mate.
Not sure about drinking alcohol but I'd definitely be drinking tea your video's are absolutely fantastic I've now kept all your video's in to my library on my phone as you'll always be there if I need information about camping as I do a fair bit of rambling
Sorry seemed to have missed this message.
Thank you!!! I hope to help people out at much as possible. Keep getting outside!
Discovered your channel by complete accident. Absolutely not sorry! Big ups to you and your Dad (what a true man!) , and Blue. Subbed and liked
Welcome! I hope you enjoy my videos! My dad is an amazing guy!
Thanks Ash.
Great video & some great advice & tips for beginners, it's a shame I didn't get interested in wild camping a few years back my collie is now nearly 14 & riddled with arthritis so wouldn't manage it we could have had a few adventures, keep up the good work.
Collies are a lovely companion and I’m sure you’ve enjoyed yours over the years. Thanks for the feedback.
Great video Bushman and blue 👍
Thanks Steve!
Good advice Marra 👍
Absolutely fantastic video. Gonna use these tips when I go on my first wild camping trip this year! Maybe add a goose?!
😂 the goose is necessary 👍
I remember wild camping (or just sleeping rough 😀)at angle tarn in 1996. Didn’t see a soul but in subsequent years it’s been a bit of a magnet for people
Your right it gets busy. 15 tents last time I was up there. Good group though.
If you would like to contribute to our channel it will be greatly appreciated!…
