Basecamp 2 - Returning to Ullswater adventure 

Thanks for feeding back. Pleased you enjoy them and the dog. She’s the bestest friend ever🐶

I definitely had the same weather as you then! It’s a nightmare when they close that bridge. The traffic really backs up around Menai and Bangor.

Hi Phil. I use Outdoor Active. It’s brilliant for planning and also following your routes. The best I would say. I also download the GPX files from Outdoor Active and upload to to Garmin Explore so I can also follow the route on my Garmin watch.

Thanks Nick. A big help!

I use Outdoor Active to plan all my hikes. You can also navigate the routes via the app also however I upload the GPX files to my Garmin watch and navigate that way instead.

When I’m in my sleeping bag my feet do touch the far end so I can’t fully stretch out so I always end up at and angle. 6ft 1” would be fine. Most owners sleep on the bench seats but I’m way to tall.

Are they shoes? I’ve seen them but I don’t use them on her

@@FlyCampCaravanNorthWales no, it is a wax that is used in husky racing,it doesnt stain your furniture or is harmful to the dog in any way,rub it on the dogs paws like you would to moisturise your hands,stops them cracking and drying our in the hot weather and protects them from snow and ice in the colder months,its fantastic stuff. MUSHERS , cheers

@@cumbriancamper I’ve just ordered a pot. Thanks for the tip😊👍

@@FlyCampCaravanNorthWales 👍🐶,I would be interested to know your thoughts after using it ,many thanks.

Thanks Dave. The Basecamp is a brilliant camper ideal for getting out and about.

Keswick is a great place to start in the lakes.

I use the Kampa Dometic 200 poled for winter and general bad weather camping as it can handle the beating. For fair weather my go to is the Vango RVA 2 which looks superb on the Basecamp and is very roomy. The airbeams aren’t strong enough for the winter.

Hi. They are just cheap throws from Dunelm.

That’s a great question. It all depends on which side the electric, drain and water is situated. On this pitch I set up on the wrong side which meant my water hose, electric cable and waste pipe were cutting across the area I’d be parking my car. Does that make sense?

@@FlyCampCaravanNorthWales That makes perfect sense. Thank you very much 👍
