  • A Tarp and Bivy camp in the Northumberland Hills,
    People wonder, how do you set out a Bivy and sleeping bag and keep it dry, well let’s see, I show an easy method to deploy in bad weather,
    I dedicate this video to Gez from boyz in the wood fame, as I did a Gez, and forgot something vital, my charging lead !!

      Hi Deka, thanks for coming along, the rain was so so heavy throughout the night, but I stayed dry, no views at all this camp, it was an eerie spot, the wind coming at all angles was almost like people talking,
      Cheers Adrian

    Nice little camp.
    Try using Prusiks on your ridgeline to stop your tarp flapping.

    • @northumberlandmountainhopper
      @northumberlandmountainhopper  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Hi and thanks for watching, glad you liked it, thanks for the tip, I do use prusiks sometimes see my latest camp,
      I was happy in this one as the flapping was not noisy.

    Great stuff Adrian , I also use that system when tarp camping and when I did my bike camping trips . You are right a tarp and bivi opens up so many places you can pitch up. I’m guessing this was last night and not the 18th July like you said lol . I’m hoping to get out next weekend , maybe atb Dave

      @northumberlandmountainhopper  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Hi Harvey. They are all done in HDR don’t know what happens to them, perhaps they let them through now the subs are growing ?
      I made the van video private as don’t know if it’s in keeping with my content ? What do you think ? Keep to BIVY’S and the occasional tent or. ????
      I shall return to this bivy spot, one day soon on a clear day.

      Hi and thanks for watching, yes, Rab neutrino pro 400 and ascent 1100 in the winter, when it gets really damp I use the army bivy as it breathes better, as a rule only get a bit around the foot box in the Hunka
      Only ever had the one bad experience, have you seen that one ? It was a bad one !
