Exposure torch expensive find don't know how much they are now but I was thinking of getting a set for my bike about 10 year back but then I saw the price😵💫🤗...
Hi guys, me and my friend love your content! Great stuff. We want to get into the wild camp scene too, so we have some questions. we'd be grateful if you could answer them. 1. What are your best tips for wild camping. 2. have you ever been caught in your wild camping experience? 3. What is your favourite wild camp so far. 4. what was your worst? 5. what advice can you give in finding the best spot to camp? Sorry for the bombarding of questions, we'd appreciate any advice you have. Many thanks - Sammy
Dovestone is gorgeous! Me and my mate really wanna do a camp on Dovestone. Where did you park? -the carpark runs out at midnight if you pay for a day ticket
Do you have any problems with the forestry commission at SF? I camped up the top end of Thynehowe and in the morning saw them drive past... put me off somewhat lol
Never had any issues. Had a couple of times where we’ve seen a car/truck drive past but never confronted. Just try and be hidden away as much as you can. I wouldn’t let them put you off, the worse they can do is move you on. However, if you do have a fire, that’s when you could face a fine. It’s easy enough to find a spot that’s hidden away from the tracks they drive on. No harm in doing a recce first to find a truly hidden spot, then when you do go for a wild camp, you can go there with confidence and camp in peace 😌
@@InvaderMiz I did 😅 I thought it was a gonner at first, had to move quick 👀 These are the risks you have to be willing to take when you go into the wild 🤙🏻
lots of interesting thoughts. ive done many things similar. Im even doing the thing with the hiking poles, but it does not feel great because either it was a lot of tension or the fell down in strong gusts. still not sure how to improve it. Maybe weth some rope or smth...
I know what you mean, the hiking pole setup failed on me in Episode 16. We need to think of a way to attach the hiking poles to the tent poles - I'll have a go with some paracord the next time I use the tent. I don't know when I will next use it though because I've fallen in love with the Naturehike Cloud Peak 2 - it's just so robust and I feel so much safer in it...
It’s a great spot, enjoy mate 😄 When you’re driving up Holmfirth Road, instead of take a right into the main car park, you can park on the road on the left. Or if you keep driving up, there’s another car park on the right which is free. It means the hike is a bit bigger but it all adds to the adventure 🤙🏻
Any tips on the location? I live near there and would love a camp but it always seems to busy! How did u find such a quiet location? Great vid! New sub!
How do you get the "click thing" to work? Can't seem to get it to work for me. 🤣🤣Have done many, many solos over the years. This year alone, I've done 44. I normally do an average of 55- 60 tramps (hikes) a year. From 1 day and up to 5 days. If you Google Tararua forest, NZ you will see my playground. This particular forest is 30k wide and 80k long and up to 1600M high. Very steep and broken country with many rivers and streams (hundreds). There is a network of 54 huts. One can go for months and not see anyone, true isolation. Today, I'm off to Otaki Forks for a day tramp and the weather looks good. Enjoyed the video ATB Cheers from the mountains of NZ.
Took me many years to master the click my friend, you’ll get there 😉😂 You are smashing it my friend, I wish I could go more often, just have to make the most out of the times we can 🙌🏻 New Zealand sounds like absolute heaven, sign me up 😂 Thanks for the support my friend, all the best, and safe travels 💙
Thanks for the support 🙌🏻 The solo camps are totally different vibe 🏕️😌 I do love a wild camp with the brosephs though 💙 I think variety is the key, like with anything 🤙🏻
Had the Elixir 2 earlier and kept that included footprint when I sold it and bought the Hubba Hubba NX2 instead. As I remember the two tents got the same measures and it works fine. Better than the current MSR standard 2p tent footprint.
Elixir 2’s footprint seems larger then the medium universal footprint msr recommends for the msr hubba hubba nx now. They recommend the large universal footprint for the elixir 2. Wondering if the footprint fits perfectly for the hubba hubba nx 2 as you mentioned. Thanks!
@@inxlee Measured the included footprint for the Elixir 2 and compared with the provided measures for the MSR universal 2p footprint recommended for Hubba Hubba NX. The Elixir 2 included footprint is actually slightly smaller, both regarding length and width. But I think the main advantage with this footprint compared with the universal is that you have the metal grommets for the poles.
@@leifandersson8754 any issues when using the elixir 2’s included ground sheet with the hubba hubba 2? I’m guessing when you attach the inner of the hubba hubba nx2 the ground sheet will come “loose”? Yes too bad msr discontinued the older hubba hubba specific ground sheets with the same metal grommets as the elixir. Now only solution is to tie a loop with the current universal ground sheets which they also provided instructions on how to do so.
Oh yes I was asking you as I currently have a elixir 2 with the included groundsheet but was intending to buy the hubba hubba nx2 so wondering if I still needed to purchase the medium universal groundsheet
@@Offline_and_Outdoors surprised the Crowthers didn't pop down and say "get Orf my land" . I've walked Black Hill in the past in bad weather and it was hanging
