    Only recently “discovered” your channel and just love it. The drone footage and accompanying music were fantastic. Sadly, I never discovered wild camping when I was young and fit and now I physically struggle to walk a mile - so definitely please keep encouraging people to get out there, clear their heads and enjoy it all whilst they can. In the meantime, I’m getting to see the fantastic countryside and benefit from your good spirits whatever the weather throws at you and Blue. Thank you.

    Truly therapeutic, indeed!
    Had to smile at the “dodge the raindrops” comment- one of my mom’s favorite as she sent us out of the house.
    It was my dad that taught my outdoor skills and I remember being stuck in the tent for days as we waited for flood waters to recede. He laid out the topo map and made up a survival board game; with a map, compass, handful of rocks, a die made of mud,, and imaginary scenarios, he taught me navigation and orienteering disguised as quests for lost hikers, buried treasure, and survival. Thanks for the memories!

When my mum downsized from a 3 bedroom house to a 1 bed retirement apartment, I helped her sell, recycle, auction or chuck her excess possessions, and she still was argumentative about binning a jar of chutney with a sell by date of July 1985.. 33 years past it's sell by date! 😝

    Crazy how fast your core temp can change when you start climbing.
    Not so sure about the 'boring content'. I actually quite like sitting in a tent listening to the rain whilst I'm warm and eating inside, and I quite enjoy watching it too. Feels almost like I'm chilling alongside you, and it's nice to listen to ramblings. Can imagine it's semi-therapeutic for you too, getting to sit there and voice everything that's going round your head.
    Until next time ❤️

    I find it funny when you say boring content. Not sure why, but the videos where you get stuck in bad weather, spending large chunks in the tent, are the most interesting to me. Love the scenery in your vids too, but I really love the idea of sheltering (safely) in a storm. The asmr of the rain or snow on the canvas of the tent is super relaxing too.

I choose this one coz when I first time visited Lakes I planned stayed exact where you. So it was really nice to see how it looks like there. Seen you in small tent make me feel think , well I'm on this boat since I wild camp 🤣 living in small tent. I recently got banshee pro200, on very low budget and hell yeah that's small tent for tall people like me...I was living in this tent 15 days so I exact knew how you felt...

Hoping for a nice Tau Herculids meteor storm later tonight/early morning but I will probably sleep thought it all. Glad you and Blue had an adventure to share with us even if it did rain most of the time. The location is absolutely beautiful even with the rain. Stay safe and take us along for future adventures.

    On the subject of very long periods spent in a ⛺ tent or being bivvy-bound due to persistent rains or long winter ❄️ nights, I have downloaded a load of films onto the memory card of my phone. This allows me a bit of entertainment when I'm stuck in locations without any 3G/4G phone signals.
    Regarding cooking inside a ⛺ tent during those periods...I never have that problem, because I don't cook hot food or hot drinks while trekking in the mountains or forests, and this saves me carrying all the cooking gear. ( I do however cook hot meals back at my car).
    I also often fit the sleeping bag inside a goretex cover as this does help keep the bag dry and free of moisture (although I've yet to have rain ever penetrate the Jack 🐺 Wolfskin Gossamer II tent⛺).

      I think the hatred of carrying cooking gear stems from my army barmy days of chasing SAS through the Brecons, and decades of living off muesli bars in wilderness regions of the globe 🌍 It does however make that hot beverage and chicken curry back at the parked X5 something to relish.😉

There was even lightning and thunder, there's about 20 tents I think all over the places and everyone was chill. It was a great experience and will definitely do it again.

    Too funny about your mum. My parents are also wartime children & always stockpiled so much food. I would joke that, come the apocalypse, I was heading for their place. Enough food for 100 years ! My hiking started with my parents; every Sunday, we went hiking in the bush, usually to an abandoned minesite. My mom has since passed away, and my dad lives in a retirement home. Every weekend, I go hiking with Molly the Newf Retriever. And now my son has started backcountry camping with his girlfriend. Great habits to pass from generation to generation. Enjoy the outdoors, live life simply. Thanks for the videos.

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE

    Boring Bast*** 🤣🤣, apologies mate its our Northern Humour. Such a humble bloke. I love how you show everything. Some films give the impression that they never get wet and everything inside the tent is dry. Me and our lass over winter got battered a few times with the weather and it is inspiring to see that greatly experienced people have the same issues.
    Inspiring as always and the Thermarest chair is a god send. We love ours.
    Thanks for taking the time and producing great output. Cheers Sel and Tracey.

    Can totally identify with this video having spent many long hours in a tent myself. The Trekker Chair is a game changer for me. In latter years I've started suffering with my back and this simple contraption makes life in the tent so much more comfortable. Use a pee bottle myself. I was careful to choose one strikingly different in colour to the one I drink out of!
    Always enjoy your videos, Al. Even the less spectacular ones like this. Do you ever use a lightweight bivvy bag to protect your sleeping bag from getting damp? The Alpkit Hunka seems to work well and I've never had any condensation issues.

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE
      @BUSHMANandBLUE  Před 2 lety +1

      I often use the Hunka in that way and it definitely helps and protect from the mucky dog too. The trekker chair definitely is worth the money especially in winter camping. Thanks mate👍
