      I don’t blame you, I was nervous on my first few alone, been wild camping for years with my partner but never alone until about 3 years ago. Best feeling of independence and freedom ever.
      Maybe wait until spring and then just make sure you prepare and make a list so you don’t forget anything. Also research, wherever you want to go, you should really go for a recce first time just to make sure it’s ok, no grazing livestock or uneven/boggy ground. Once you visit the area you know what to expect. Just go with the mindset that you can leave and walk back to the car at any point you want if you don’t feel safe 👍🏻 you’ll love it.

  • @boardgamesandwhiskyuk1646

    Hi, Just discovered this channel. Excellent videos. Very calming and inspiring to watch. I'm still trying to build up courage to go for my first solo wild camp. Whisky and hot chocolate is a great combination. I do tend to go for a bourbon or JD for tipples in other drinks. Never like mixing my single malts, but that's just me 😀. keep up the fantastic videos and enjoy...

    Hi Amber, enjoyed the video very much and I have a couple of questions about the gear. First, is that really an MSR Elixir 1 tent? It looks nothing like the one in the affiliate link. Second, the little light you hung in the tent - again the link goes to one that's battery powered but in the video, you light yours with a match. Can you clarify? Many thanks!

    • @AmberinEryri
      @AmberinEryri  Před 2 lety

      Hi Rob, no it’s the Southern Cross one tent I used. It is also linked in the gear list. I put all the gear I regularly use in the gear list. I forgot to pop the UCO lantern in - so have updated it! :)

      Hi Phil, funnily enough I was planning on doing an ASMR style video soon!
      We’re lucky enough to have access to a drying room for wet gear in the business next to where we live, so that’s how I dry my tent out. Otherwise, I would probably have to hang it over a clothes horse next to an window open 👍🏻

    Ive seen on the visitor website there is a list of farmers who allow wild camping,bit confused,as i dont want to upset anyone,as im planning to go for a few days,any advice would be appreciated 👍

    • @AmberinEryri
      @AmberinEryri  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Pete, no technically, it is not legal. However, as with many other things, it is generally accepted as long as you follow the simple leave no trace rule, pitch as close to dusk and dawn as possible, and away from any livestock/houses/roads, leave if you are asked by a landowner without any fuss. Best to go high up if you can. Basically, be respectful of the land and the people who live nearby. 👍
