I am planning to complete the Two Moors Way (117 miles) this summer in under 3 days, so this was an opportunity to get used to my long distance/lightweight kit again.
Also was extremely fortunate to see the Northern lights, which I did not realise were supposed to be visible at that week-end. Haytor and surrounding areas were also packed with people, thankfully I did not meet anyone, so it was nice and peaceful.
Camped in a less remote spot on Hameldown as it was the night before Ten Tors started.

9:49 this is why I love been out there!!!! Great video my friend. At first I thought it was the Hilleberg Akto. Very similar tents. Liked!!!

Me too. It is so beautiful on the moor. I'm glad you liked it. I was tempted by the Akto, but for what I need the telemark is perfect and significantly lighter. Thanks for watching. Rowan.

Good stuff, I've travelled all over the arctic circle and only seen the northern lights fully a handfull of times. Then the one time it's in the UK I was asleep!

Streamlined kit you've got here. It is always good to see a pack list that has obviously been refined and refined over years rather than "25 things I bought online last week".

Thank you, as you say it's taken a while to find what works. I still make continuous tweaks every now and again of course. Thanks for watching.

Very nice, I really enjoyed this. But I always do, and I find it really refreshing that there are no talking. It is a nice change of pace and it sets you apart from most other youtube campers. Quite a lot of them are talking too much, without having anything interesting to say. After all, it is said that silence is golden 👍 If I may give you a small tip regarding the Real Turmat. If you tear apart the glued end pieces at the bottom, it creates a free standing base, and it also allows the water to saturate the content a little bit better and gives a better result.

Thank you. It is nice to hear you liked that approach for this video. Cheers for the tip, I will try that the next time I use one. Thankfully I have never had any issues in them rehydrating nor stability, especially when placed in the cosy I have. But like I said I will try it next time as that sounds easier to stand up. Thank you.

I’m liking the tent I bought a geertop one man bivvy last year but unfortunately it wasn’t that good in the rain and I got flooded out a few times..I like the look of yours as it has a storage area too..Nice mission cheers 👍

I don't know that tent. Sad to hear it wasn't the best in the rain. I too really like the Telemark, works really well for me. Thanks for watching.

Wonderful video! How do you work out routes and where to camp? I'm desperate to get back into camping after years of not doing it but trying to find places I can backpack camp seems impossible. :(
@RowanWildCamps
@RowanWildCamps 26 дней назад
Thank you, it is nice to hear you liked it. As for planning trips etc I am fortunate enough by now to know Dartmoor very well, so all route/locations are in my head. That being said if it is somewhere new or I have forgotten, then I go over different maps to get a rough location and then go on Google maps and look via the satellite view and the pictures other people have taken nearby. Then I plan the route either to the nearest possible place to park or a route I fancy, I tend to work backwards, so from campsite to trail then parking, if that doesn't work then I try a different route. If you live nearby to where you plan to camp, then perhaps go on a walk round the area you intend to go, get some inspiration and a feel for the place. I did that when I recently went to Scotland, walked about 16 miles on a day walk, but I did not like the feel for it, so the following day camped somewhere over an hours drive away from my day walk. That or look for websites or Google maps for trips/camps, street view on Google maps is particuarly useful. Hope this helped a bit. Rowan.

My powerbank itself weighs 6+g. I need it for a multiday trip. Was that your powerbank you showed? It looks much more slimlined and lighter than the brick I have.
@RowanWildCamps
@RowanWildCamps 26 дней назад
It is an Anker Powercore with 20100 mAh capacity. It is able to charge all my electronics for several days. I don't think they make this particular one anymore as I got it more than 5 years ago. But Anker still make good powerbanks.

Thank you. You're not the first to say so, I may implement that in the future. I do understand it adds a level of clarity to explaining things, but for now I will keep it as it is. Thanks for the feedback however. Rowan.
