Join me on a mountain camp in Snowdonia, Wales! The weather is terrible from start to finish on this trip. I hike up the mountain to a small llyn where I setup camp for the night. Despite the weather I cook a nice meal, steak and brussel sprouts, inside my tent using the jetboil and brace for a long night. The Hilleberg Soulo really got put through it’s paces on this trip. Mountain forecast said this area experienced winds up to 95km/h (59mph) that evening. I definitely did not experience sustained winds of that speed as I was able to find a slightly sheltered spot, however I definitely experienced gusts coming through of up to 60mph. In fact, on the way down the mountain a gust hit me from behind and knocked me off my feet. First time I’ve ever experienced that! Anyways, I was unable to film with my normal camera gear for the majority of the trip so most things were filmed with the GoPro. I apologize if the audio and video quality is a little worse than normal. Also, as a result of being secluded in my tent for over 12 hours I decided to just start talking to the camera. I know this is not my normal video format but it never hurts to try something different! Haha, I use words like battered and lug a few times which I normally never use. Not sure why. I think I was a bit nervous talking but eventually I become more comfortable with the camera as the video goes on. I decided to keep all my awkward ramblings in the video because it’s the first time I actually ever talk! So despite not getting much sleep because of the noise throughout the evening, I really enjoyed this trip. I definitely plan on doing more trips to Snowdonia in the near future. Hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for watching and if you have any questions please feel free to leave a comment! ATB
