3 Days Solo Camping in the Mountains in Heavy Snow 

Totally mate!!

hahah yeah that was a cold one! super enjoyable nonetheless, thanks for watching!

Thanks so much, I appreciate that! Haha I do get a lot of stick for using my stove in my tent.. I guess I may have to learn the hard way! I just find the flame is very controllable and especially in cold temps like that, if careful, I don't see a significant risk. Thanks for watching! Happy holidays

Have to agree the use of the stove in the tent is not very good, better to use it in the porch. This is the first time i have came across a video of yours and have to say i will be checking the others out. I have to say that the way you rethought the following days hike and to not go any further was spot on, not worth the risk especially being alone. I see that you could not put the front guys out due to the ground being hard which would have been much better if you could have as would have pulled inner tent from fly more, i would have used a couple big rocks from the stream to tie the guy around as it was not windy. I love being out in the elements and the snow is really enjoyable. Im wanting to get out more and make some videos on here myself, injured my ankle a couple years almost and then just not had the time to get out Really enjoyed the video and the way you come across in it. subbed your channel. All the best to you

I second that this was an amazing video!

Thanks for the tips mate, hope you get out there real soon on an adventure!!@@stehume

Thank you!@@wesleyhendricks4219

Thanks mate I really appreciate that as that's something I really focus on. I'd rather post less often, more interesting.. :-) Struggling to find the next adventure at the moment, but it will come! And yeah Matty and I ALMOST made it out last week together but didn't materialise unfortunately.

Thanks David!! Was a good testing one, I find these to be the most rewarding!

Definitely for next time! Thanks !!

hahah yeah I was thinking Al would have been up in the mountains too but I think maybe he was in Poland or something

​@@EzeAdventurer think you're right, recently posted his poland adventure

agree!!

haha I know I couldn't believe my stupidity either lol...! All part of the adventure lol!

Hey my friend!! Thanks for the support since the beginning! Love the comments hahah definitely my jingle bells weren't very big in that moment lollll Frosty knickers could be a good channel name! Good point re the sheep, hadn't crossed my mind ! I don't have a clue! PS Sending you and Laura big strength!

Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

haha thanks !

Thanks Andrew buddy!! Yeah I totally agree with that, that's exactly what I was thinking..."make good decisions". Hope to catch you sometime in Scotland, we can blast some Beluga Lagoon down a wild river Lol

Legend!! Thanks buddy!!

I know, me too!! Took me same time to defrost and dig out my car too!

Thank you so much! Was absolutely stunning!

Thanks buddy!! I agree I absolutely love mine. Just word of caution. The wind forecast was VERY favourable for this trip, but if the wind had picked up to say 40-50 mph, I think the tent would have been inadequate.

@@EzeAdventurer if you double guy the end and pitch it tailto the wind it should be ok

If pitched like that it is quite aerodynamic .not to mention pick a sheltered. Spot common sense HAPPY Christmas

Definitely, agreed. Merry xmas mate!@@MrSilver261

Aaah thanks Mikey!! That's super kind of you appreciate it buddy!!!

Thanks for sharing that, I'm glad you found it useful as I never know how deep to go with talking / planning etc, this reinforces the decision to share more of that mental process!

Must have been! awesome glad you were also out there!!

My pleasure my friend!! Thanks for watching

I certainly hope so!! Alberta sounds wonderful!!

haha thanks buddy!! That shelter is impressive, I know that if big wind kicked up, it may fail but if the wind is ok, I think it's an amazing one for the value!

Thank you! I actually took only power bank 20,000 mAh, and came back with over 60% charge still on it! The gopro batteries were dying very quickly due to cold. Took two fully charged drone batteries too.

Glad you enjoyed it!!

haha best compliment ever!

Thanks buddy I was concerned too lol. Previously was super oblivious singing in the tent, then the penny dropped a bit... oh crap... Lol that peg wouldn't have stood a chance !!

hahahahah Love it!!!!!!! LOL LOL That's brilliant, will have to try it one day.

Sooo beautiful!! Thank you!!! Looks like you got a cool channel going yourself, willlhave to check out!

ahahaha it's ok - thankfully and to my surprise, my feet dealt very well with the situation!!

Thanks so much buddy!!

Yes definitely agree, thank you!

hahaha always nice to watch in a cosy environment, thanks for tuning in !! With water therapy, it's totally worth it, you get used to it!

hahahaha song out of tune indeed but very much in tune with nature !!! Thanks for the very kind and warm words I appreciate them greatly bud!

That's such a sweet comment thank you!! Looks like you have an awesome channel yourself, need to check out some of your adventures!!

Thanks Daniel I appreciate the kind words! And thanks so much for that trip, sounds awesome! Will have to look into this! Have you done this trip before? What kind of class rapids? Thanks so much buddy!

@@EzeAdventurer So I haven't run this river myself yet but I will be from the 16th to the 19th :D! I have some friends who regularly run the Ripon to York stretch and generally there's only class 1 and 2 rapids (mostly just within 10km of Ripon, then mostly flatwater) but it feels a bit more dicey with more flow. Further upstream passed Ripon it can get a bit technical and depending on flow you can see some class 3 and 4 rapids Best of luck mate!

Thanks buddy let me know how you get on!!@@DanielJones-wg7eg

Thanks so much buddy !! Cold water therapy for the win! Yes loved seeing the sheep haha they looked temptingly fluffy too! Drive was good except for one bit when the car swerved, quite scary but luckily no damage at all

Thanks so much Robb as always, we really do man, moments like these really highlight how much beauty is out there for us to explore, discover, develop love for and ultimately protect and cherish even more!

Thanks and thanks for sending me the Garmin message buddy!! Hope we get out there together soon, been too long daaawwwg!

@@EzeAdventurer no problem at all bud! I know mate, let's organise something epic for the new year 😁👍🏻

Thanks buddy, me too!

Thanks so much my friend!! All on GoPro 8 and iPhone 13 !

@@EzeAdventurer great stuff mate

Thanks buddy hope you get a chance to get out there soon mate!

Thanks so much buddy, hopefully will be another opportunity to get out there in the snow!

Thanks Jim as always!!

thanks for the sub buddy! Appreciate it! Good point re the guy lines offering more support, I was thinking of the wind alone and it slipped my mind! Hope you get out there asap mate!

Thank you and you!!

Thanks soooo much In appreciate it!!

Thanks my friend, welcome aboard!!

You bet! Thanks for coming along!

Haha thank you mate 👊

I appreciate that!

Yess the sky was unbelieveableee!! I was so disappointed not being able to capture, need to get into it, but it would involve buying another camera, and that's more money, gear to worry about etc.. starts becoming a bit too much.. Yeah lol I dunked the same leg twice hahaha

That's awesome!

Awesome buddy!! So beautiful !!

Thanks a ton buddy!!!!

Thank you!! You don't have to get out there, just enjoy from cosy/warm home :-) Thanks for watching as always!!

Thanksss!!!

Thanks Jason, always nice to watch cosy from home !! Glad you tuned in, the mountains are beautiful for sure in that light! See you on the next one!!

You know it!!

Thank you!!!

Thanks sooo much agree 100% with your outlook and attitude!! Yeah it took me 40 mins alone just to defrost the massive ice block over the wind shield!!

@@EzeAdventurer yeah brutal mate glad your OK 👌

hahaha it's honestly THE BEST!!! The snow was soooo beautiful !!!!

Thanks bud!

Thank you very much!!

Happy holidays Lisa and welcome aboard!! Thanks for joining the adventure!!

Haha yeah I've been using it inside my tent for a long time now, I feel pretty safe with it.. I think it looks closer than it really is on the video. You're right that it's prob best to do it outside, but can't resist the comfort lol... I guess it will take one of those events to "teach" me one way or another ! Thanks for watching!

Thank you!!!

Thanks buddy! I’m using OS Maps there ! I think you have to pay a bit bit but well worth it. Also recently using GAIA, liking it. You need the premium version to download offline I believe but you can also download sat images for offline use with Gaia which is sick

Thank you! 😃

Definitely would have been a good addition on this one

obrigadooo

Hey mate! Yeah he's good buddy just very busy with his life :-) We almost got out a couple of week go together but he got a chest infection :-(

@@EzeAdventurer oh man!! I hope he's getting better! Those can be scary. Good to hear about everything else. And good hear from you as always. Take care. NQU

Thanks Michael, you're right but I've been using the tent without a groundsheet for ages now and find it's not worth the extra weight to carry the groundsheet.. long term prob will end up with a couple of holes at some point but that's ok with me

@@EzeAdventurer an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. it's easier to stop something from happening in the first place than to repair the damage after it has happened. Just my 2 cents. I enjoy your videos very much.

Thanks buddy you're right, but I don't see a tent floor rip / hole being very critical / dangerous (as opposed to say the rain fly!). I totally get where you're coming from, for me it's not a priority and worth leaving the groundsheet behind to save the weight. Bear in mind when you're filming, space and weight skyrocket with tripod, battery banks, camera, drone, controllers, etc! puts a bit of pressure on what is defined as "essential" . thanks for the support buddy! much love!@@michaelbroyer3918

Thanks Alan for checking in! All is good buddy just real life taking over a bit lol! I can't wait to get out there as soon as an opportunity comes up!

That's the river Esk! would be perfect for that mate

Thanks Alan I need to look into those, have you tested them in frozen ground conditions before?

@@EzeAdventurer Yes. In frozen ground and in granite gravel (which is extremely hard) and I was able to pound them in. I think I’ve only bent one or two in the many years I’ve used them

wow that's V impressive will add them to the wish list ! thank you for tiger hot tip!!!@@alanbierhoff6831

Good idea!
