So with the weather forecast set for a cold spell I headed north again to the Southern Uplands, it was a beautiful day but was set to go below 0c overnight and with the windchill it felt like minus 5c.
Still I packed all my winter gear in readiness for a cold night but it was still a shock to the system having camped in 10c last week .
It was also the first run out for my new MSR access 2 since selling the Akto , this one has loads more room but time will tell if its the one and I am not 100% sure I will be keeping it ..
I did manage to get a few night shots but it was too cold for lingering outside .
Sorry its a bit long winded but its a while since I have had good weather.

You're like a walking goose with all that down draped on your body 😂🤣 Liking the MSR Access, I know it's light for a 2 man but still no overhead storage 😲 that little touch would add a 100g at most. The fly colour on these new MSRs is bang on for woodland, hills etc... Nice viddy Dave 👍 Lee

Smashing footage Dave, the new tent looks really roomy , your enjoying your wee trips over the Border 👌👌 Had a hike round the Hart Fell horseshoe last month, did it left to right and once you drop off Hart Fell Rig its a bog the rest of the way round, the first half is much drier, the Carrifran Valley is being put back to natural woodland and scrub and there`s a hidden waterfall at the far end of it which is a gem, looking forward to your wild camps from those locations. ATB Alan.

@BorderRambler 2 года назад

Thanks Alan , I will probably explore that side in early spring . I look forward to visiting the Carrifan valley area and it’s splendour. Did you park at Cappelgill for that walk ? Atb Dave

May have been cold but the weather looked great with amazing views. The wind looked strong mind, so looked a good pitch next to the wall with a bit of protection and looked real cold when the sun dropped. Now that was a morning to wake up too and awesome shots of the night skies and sun rise/set....May have been a restless night sleep but worth it for the views you got, cheers Alan

@northumberlandmountainhopper 2 года назад

Great camp, love the hills, access 2 looks ok. It has the extra side pole to make it a bit stronger than the Hubba Hubba I use, mine suffered bent poles when we put it up in the wind, but we have used it in strong wind, lost confined it now. I will watch with interest ! It looks the same sort of conditions we have on the Cheviots ! Enjoyed it

@BorderRambler 2 года назад

@iainsharples1433 2 года назад

Just caught up with this video Dave, great conditions, very watchable. For icy cold wind chill, I use a neck gaiter to protect mouth and nose. How was condensation management inside the tent? If you did switch to a Scarp, I am certain that you will instantly appreciate its ease of pitch and versatility.

@BorderRambler 2 года назад

Thanks Iain , I have a fleecy buff but didn’t think I would need it 😂 quite a bit of condensation but I suppose the frost was reducing the breathability of the material. Scarp is the same design as my old Akto and not really sold on that type ,but you never know Lol atb Dave

@WiltshireMan 2 года назад

Great video Dave, Southern uplands looks a great place to explore your lucky to have it so close to home. I'm looking for a proper 4 season tent, not sure what to go for, the Scarp1 is looking like the one. The Access 2 looks very similar "almost" to my Elixir 2, just a different inner with solid walls otherwise the same tent and the poles are different. Cracking photo's and night lapse. Did you know the amount of heat given off by the body at rest is equal to about 1 candle power. No surprise the tent was frozen:)

@BorderRambler 2 года назад

Thanks Sandy, yeah it’s about 45 min drive away and is always very peaceful. They are all very similar but just have certain additions or not . Not sure it’s a keeper tho 😂 I am also looking at the Scarp 1 (can’t help myself lol) . It was like waking up in a fridge 🥶🥶 , at least I was warm till I got up . Tfw atb Dave

That's the best vid footage I've seen of an Access 2 - sort of makes me want one. Great vid Dave, great area for hiking and camping and you chose a fantastic route and pitch. Damn it was chilly though! That's the first vid I've saw this season where the tent's been solid with frost. Initial thoughts on the Access then? Looks palatial, nice sturdy pole design, can't go wrong with double bules. Cracking good first test out for it. Well done. At least you didnt have to get your feet wet on this one :) TFS (P.S one of the best night-time-lapses I've seen in a while as well)
