One of my most challenging trips yet! This one was a pretty constant battering from gale force winds and rain. There was a lot of backtracking to avoid bogs and progress was slow. But also, it was so wildly beautiful and felt so remote. For the first time ever, I didn’t see a single person since leaving my car 💚
Despite its difficulties I loved this trip! It felt raw and humbling. However, I would not recommend this tent (Lanshan 2) in these kinds of conditions, particularly in cold weather.
There is a separate video about the tent, which was also filmed on this trip: • Testing Budget Lightwe...

Proper strong winds and plenty of rain and boggy terrain - spectators (Folk who've never actually DONE what you did.) won't understand how much effort those conditions require for even a half day hike, let alone three days and two nights. Your ability to be upbeat under such conditions, to laugh at yourself and the hardships and to get useable footage as well - you are a remarkable human being. If I had kids I'd want them all to be just like you.

agreed , i can bang out a 20+ mile hike with very little effort most days if i need to but there have been times on Dartmoor that 4 or 5 miles have utterly smashed me to pieces! wet grassy mounds are ankle killers and sap your energy , it gets into your hips your ankles and more importantly your brain!

Your experience is showing. You are getting better with every video. Thank you

@arcticradio Год назад

Your channel is better than most for a simple reason…..you focus more on getting out. I’m so tired of all the kit review channels on here where they are obsessed with the lightest or newest kit. Encouraging people to get out with what gear they have is a good thing. Second-hand kit, anything just go with what you have but know the limits of what you have. Thankyou Claire for your great channel it’s encouraging to watch and a very positive goal for us all to go out and enjoy the outdoors. Greetings from a icy cold Finland!

@atrekwithdave Год назад

agreed, kit reviews are simply money making schemes to gain viewings by lazy sods who simply need viewings to enhance their earnings.

@urbanbugZA Год назад

I agree Finn, getting out iis key. Kit is something you need to research and get what works for you though kit reviews doe help with putting your own pack together

@WildBeare Год назад

Aw thanks Finn :D I agree the main thing is just getting out! That being said, kit does have to be fit for purpose of course, safe enough to be out in whatever conditions you end up in. I do like to keep trying to improve my kit but it's a gradual thing, it's taken 5 years to get to where I am with it and I could never have done winter camping in the mountains with the kit that I started out with.. it would have been extremely dangerous. Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching my lil viddy :) best wishes from UK 🌿Claire 🐻

I love the ending quotes "As we all know life isn't going to be perfect all the time (our jobs health and relationships can't be perfect all the time, people aren't going to be perfect all the time and the weather well that certainly isn't going to be perfect all the time) but maybe this imperfection in itself is perfection because everything runs in Cycles and maybe if we can learn not just to tolerate those Cycles but to be filled with gratitude just for the opportunity to be here and to experience them fully. I mean I'm still learning this but if we can think that way then there's not a lot that can ruin our day."

Dealing with high winds can be unbelivably challenging and at times scary! Me and my entire team of sled dogs once got blown sideways about 15 meters on a wide open flat in Northern Onatrio. I tend to stick to campsites with more wind cover these days! Perserverance is key when dealing with weather! A positive attitude goes along way to drive that perseverance! An old hunting guide once told me,,,, complaining about the weather doesn't change the weather....it just changes your experience in that weather! Love your videos, always look forward to them!

@WildBeare Год назад

Heyy Timberdogz! Oooh gawd that sounds crazy! The winds can be frightening can't they. I always get a bit nervous when I can't get me tent up and start planning out a potential emergency bivi situation in my head haha.

Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing. Regards from New Zealand

Another awesome video, Claire! I always look forward to watching your adventures! This one looked a tough at times with the bogs and the wind and rain, but as always you remain positive and share with us some amazing parts of the country! ⛰

.....I'm watching these all out of sequence, but my respect for you needing space and obvious 'You Time', is growing with every personal adventure. 😎☯️

Rain on tarp. Such a lovely sound! That was a battle with that boggy ground. Soon break a leg there 😮 That mountain certainly make you work for your rewards. Oooh, I’d have been in that forest without a doubt. I love it in amongst the trees. I doff my cap to you yet again, Claire 👋🏼😉👍🏼 Keep smilin’!

@garyholman2947 Год назад

Well done!!! Your final words sent tingles up my spine. I too believe life is about Thankfulness, Growing and Learning.

@thegeriatricdangler4086 Год назад

I love your videos Claire and your attitude to life. I camp and fish for carp over 48 hrs. Sessions and a lot of what you describe I can totally relate to. Much of your kit has relevance to the carp fishing community. We can learn a lot from the trekking/camping community. Thank you for your insights and for sharing your passion for freedom in the countryside.

Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!!! Your videos just keep getting better and better, Claire! Such beautiful Autumn colors, and the mountainscapes and cloudscapes were wonderful---and that time-lapse sunset was drop dead gorgeous!!! I loved how you did the live-footage insets as you explained your trek on the map; that gave it soooo much more meaning and understanding (dang, you're good)! It is always so great to see you smiling, with pure Joy as you experience everything Nature throws at you and blesses you with. It is a real privilege to be able to enjoy these experiences with you, Claire. I loved the wisdom you imparted to us at the end of your video. It gave me goosebumps (again). You are a special and wonderful Spirit, Claire. Thanks for all you do and all you are. 😊❤✌

I do truly enjoy and appreciate joining you (virtually) on your adventures and listening to your thoughts and insights. Thank you so much!

I love watching your videos Claire. They’re so adventurous and versatile. The challenges you set yourself are incredible and you always pull through them. The scenery is amazing too. Thank you so much and please keep posing them. Love them. 😊💖

@anthonywilliams8087 Год назад

Ahhh man that was brilliant. Thank you Claire that was great viewing. I love Snowdonia and the fact that you can just vanish into the hills on your own and be totally alone. There's no reason that with the right equipment and a bit of common sense that anyone can do it. Love it.

@faderrider75 Год назад

i liked your closing statement about cycles and living within them and being grateful, not tolerant. I don't talk to many people these days, but that's a thought i've had on my own. Wasn't sure if that was reasonable or just some madness i came up with. Hearing it from someone else, it in fact sounds entirely reasonable and it's nice to know there are others who think similarly. Thank you for that.

@jimmyjenkins9240 Год назад

You find gratitude and beauty in harsh and adverse conditions. Your attitude and mind set make you a lovely soul . I so enjoy your. Missions into the wild!

@geoffminter2927 Год назад

Love your positivity, tenacity and your sheer determination not to be beaten. Keep making these videos Claire, they are so uplifting, bless you! And stay safe! 🙏

Thanks so much Geoff! Hope you're having a lovely week :) Claire

@rogermelling8941 Год назад

That bit at the end brought tears to my eyes...your positivity, strength and beautiful outlook on things that to me look terrifying is inspiring..Thank you, I've had such a crap 2 weeks and watching this today has made me realise infact I've been moaning and groaning for the sake of moaning and groaning and really 2 weeks of ups and downs is what literally everyone goes through and I suppose we we dwell on things too much..like you said nothing can be perfect all the time.. You're awesome 👌

big respect! positive, strong, real spirit. And you are a nice person. Not many do this, alone..

@riverviewcookadventure586 Год назад

What a wild old trip. Well done to you Claire. And as usual you took camping from great to gorgeous keep them videos coming little miss. We love watching your adventures.

@vermontsownboy6957 4 месяца назад

I cannot believe how fast the weather goes from downpour, to sunbeam sunsets, to showers, stars, back to rain, back to blue sky. But it's beautiful! And yeah, your spirit of adventure and come-what-may is infectious. I've been "out there" in the weather, and at my comfortable place in life, am happy to let you enjoy the conditions, watching from my cozy, warm, and coddling armchair. Safe travels!

@Sillyyboii 6 месяцев назад

Just found your channel. Very exciting adventures to witness. Love your camera work and spirit. The wild is calling and I'm picking up!

@worstuserever Год назад

Fantastic, loved the weather, the scenery, and your positive perspective. Completely agree those elements of uncertainty and seeming imperfection, little extra surprises and challenges, are what turns a pleasant journey into a great adventure. With proper preparation and planning always, of course, because foolishness is not fun. Trust you to find that beautiful little caterpillar friend!

@laurent2651 Год назад

Les paysages sont somptueux ! La nature nous donne un sentiment unique, une relation, une émotion...et quand on arrive à être connecté avec elle, c'est juste magique !! Très belle conclusion. Merci 💚...

@jansveen Год назад

Such a contrast with your beautiful and fresh face in that hardcore autumn land. Amazing. And your smile all the time, even in rain, and the wind just wrecking your tent. But that dramatic sunset over the lake. You were right about avoiding those bogs, they can be very dangerous, especially with a heavy backpack. I almost disapeard in a hole like that. After I just have very big respect of those wetlands. The quality of your filmwork is so good. Thank you. Wish you the best of trips.

@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling Год назад

A great weekend hike. The weather has certainly turned in the UK and I've had those boggy hikes in the Peaks. My hiking buddy went in past her knee and only falling forward stopped her from going down further. I've pushed my treking pole into a bottomless bog too so I know the feeling. But the take from this is your sheer grit and determination to succeed. I'm the nutter who stands on the edge too. I'm glad you have an Inreach. After 4 years working at the Rescue Coordination Centre outside Edinburgh (responsible from all rescue Coordination from 52:30N and above) 79-83 we would have loved this technology to help fallen or lost hikers. It's great that you take these precautions seriously. Well done Claire, great weekend and beautiful night sky as always. That to me is the icing on the cake.

@chrishart7073 Год назад

One of the most awesome channels on RU-vid. Wildbeare bringing the best of the British wilderness and the best of humanity to our screens. Great work and please keep the videos coming

@johngormley7516 Год назад

I bet later in your life you will look back with awe and think did I do that. You have and are making memories to look back on, be safe and tread careful. I understand tent weight is a lot to carry is why you take a light weight one, you are a remarkable person.

@pierrenilsson6189 Год назад

A good example of the trade off you'll have to do when deciding which tent to use. Lightweight will be less sturdy in hard weather but easier to carry. A sturdy tent will be heavier and most likely more expensive. I really enjoyed watching this and I love that you did not complain for a second. That's quite unusual when I look at other camping videos on youtube. Most go on about "survival situations" and you just let out screams of joy. Very refreshing.

@garytindale4664 Год назад

Claire, you are one amazing person, your determination, drive and positivity are unreal. No matter how difficult things are you do not stop and show everyone what is possible.

@deioo1965 Год назад

Great call turning back and not jumping that water stream :) Thanks for sharing your adventures with the rest of us!

@andrewoutandabout7224 Год назад

Your outro on this fits the context of your video so very well ……there are some who post and I am vaguely drawn to watch ….there are 5 who I actively seek out , you are one of those. Thanks so much for the quality of your content and the empathy and humanity you show and demonstrate xx

@davidsomerville3890 Год назад

I do enjoy watching your endeavours, I go all over the Scottish hills and like you it doesn’t always go quite to plan. It’s good to know I’m not the only one who enjoys the wilderness in the most appalling wether. Keep going and stay dry.

@janneheffler Год назад

Thanks for sharing your adventures with us! It sure is inspiring. Take care, Wild One 🌿🐻
