Hey everyone hope you enjoy this video. This is an amazing camp spot so please appreciate it. Check out our Instagram if you want to see a bit more behind the scenes from us. Thank you all 😀
Hi Root. Fantastic camp again. The location is beautiful. I thought I recognised it from your earlier video. I’ll rewatch that one. The wet wood was a nightmare, eh? 😵Thank you for the update on Victoria. We miss her. 😀Your nature and vista shots are top notch!👌🏾 Just breathtakingly, gorgeous! It looked like you were above the clouds from the shots on your hike down! ☁️😮The conditions were brutal, at one point we could bearly hear you over the rain on the tarp. You said it was bitterly cold.🌧 Your dinner looked delicious! 👨🍳⛺️ I did say it needed some hot sauce as well!! 😂 How did you sleep? You were quite vague. 💤 Your tent did get damp inside! 🥶 That must have been a personal best the hike down? You said it would take three hours and you got back to your Soobs in 1h30mins! 💪 I don’t know if you have one already, maybe invest in a bodycam harness for your camera don’t want you injuring yourself. Do you have a satellite phone? So beautiful is your homeland and remote as well! Relieved you have your Location Beacon. Just in case Abel. 😅 Do you call them tuffets of grass? Epic camp as per Abel! ⛺️🌧👌🏾 We really appreciate all the hard work and effort! 🙏 Your fan from 🇬🇧 P.s So pleased the Alpaca Beanie paid dividends in the storm! Love that Beanie dude!
I really enjoy your videos, you guys are the best. I enjoy watching your solo camps aswel 👍 anyone can summer camp but you guys go out in extreme weather and that is the ultimate test of your tent and sleeping attire. Thweres nothing better than camping in extreme weather. I salute you 👌 Keep the videos coming 👍
Yes a truly awesome spot. Stayed there last night. Weather was beautiful, sunny, great views and no wind. Grill we found hanging in the trees came in handy when we cooked some burgers on the fire
Hola le saludamos desde San Carlos de chillan de chile le vemos recién y quizás saldremos y viviremos igual que usted lo que hace .,pero todavía no podemos ya que no tenemos una carpa para salir y vivir así la aventura y vida de eso tan maravilloso lo que hace usted...
@@AbelandVictoria Thank you. If possible, could you show us activitties that are around the cabin, e.g. swim near waterfall, or a walk in a beautiful part of the woods, or bunjee jump off a bride, or row a boat on a nearby lake and look at the fish etc,
Thanks for sharing Abel. Dark chocolate digestives are the ultimate luxury. I've had smoked mackerel and smoked salmon, but never a smoked Able 😊 love from Cornwall England ❤
Now that is the reality of camping....doesn't always go the way we want! Love it. If you just had a way to spit those larger pieces in half, that may have helped them burn better. Thanks for a great video!!!
What a beautiful view. New Zealand is just beautiful! I enjoyed the camp flaws and all food looked delicious. New to your channel looking forward to watching you and Victoria in your other videos! ❤
What you mean he talks to much that how we know what's happening then dont listen and the other to much coffee really it's what Abel love to Drink then dont watch I love your videos it gives me peace ❤😊
I enjoyed the video. I do learn from your example: some good and some, well, not as good. it is always fun. I am working through all your videos from the beginning with a few views of the latest. Keep it coming. I do wonder if you could plan a tree near that great spot for future hikers for years to come.
Wow what great scenery.New zealand is very beautiful.I have very good friend who lives in Auckland New Zealand.Really hoping to visit someday.❤ Love your vidoes, keep up the amazing work.🎉 Cheers! From Ontario Canada.
Hi Able, Enjoyed your video. I know the smoke was a hindrance. When you think about it, if camping went perfect it would be boring. Have something to chuckle about later on
Oh wow when is our weather going to improve ? Gosh that was beautiful up there, thanks for taking us along once again, and yes, your food looked so good. Once again I'm really impressed with that tarp, so light but really useful. Thanks and hope we get a more warm and sunnier camping trip soon.
I appreciate wen you do a call out on here to ab camping Abel I support both yours n Tony channels I'm a proud kiwi supporter admiring the S.I views you guys bless us with... one day I hope to make it down there in the summer of course 😊 I'm from the far north N.I and my skin is not thick enough for our South Island lols so good on uze...I miss seeing Victoria on the last cpl of camps bro
Another awesome video Abel. Nice to see someone out there gathering up all the dead wood for fires. No doubt there will be some who think that you are stuffing up the eco system. All I see is someone pruning and promoting new growth. I think you could even gather enough rocks to create a small table especially if it gets wet and muddy near the tent. Keep up the fantastic work, hiking up to those places, recording your adventures and also for the time it takes to edit and upload your videos mate. They sure are appreciated. By the way. Had a chuckle when you added the chillies to your dinner. It's extra nice when it's cold and you need a bit of a kick if you are a connoisseur of the nicer things in life.
Think I need that Tarp for my camping in Wales, similar weather. Wish had got a similar tent to yours, have one with a small vestibule. (But loads of space). As a Brit I approve of the biscuit dunking😂 P.s As on bike tricky with weight. Small miracle am around 10kg (but very basic have to eat out but next to a pub no probs)
Hi Alan from England, just started watching and love it, sorry for keep witting but just that you and the fire 🔥, was funny that you new that it wouldn’t work before hand, hope you are all well and I’m going to let my friends know about your stuff, anyway please have a look at FISH 13 for a mad camp, better than my home, thanks again Alan from England 🏕🇬🇧🍻💯👍👍
MASSIVIE! MASSIVE! MASSIVE! That is how a real deluge is for me and my great camping skills "bush rafting" You get 20 drops and you think it's a snowstorm! Where I live in Scotland, it rains so hard it blows my tent over!!! I must keep on re positioning my tent 5-6 times!!! And I use railroad spikes to hold my tent down while you use some little nails. And you feel you eat a tiny hot dog meal of 6? That's my appetizer!!! I eat 12!!! And I put cheese you by 1/2 pound!!! In Scotland, we don't use a little propane device. I learned REAL camping to use only fire. And those marbles you call meatballs shoot I roll a pound of hamburger onto MY plate. I eat like a REAL man!!! I'm so blown away by your half sip of whiskey out of an alcoholics flask. We use the whole bottle here in Scotland! Those weka birds all laugh at you! Whoa here! I'm kidding, gotcha! I love your show and watch the other videos over and over. You and Victoria have a hot show so keep on camping!!! Sorry for joking! 🥴🥴🥴
That was a great camp bar, the smoking fire , I thought you had cooked a corned beef hash , it looked good anyway. Inclement weather again , nice walk back in sunshine though
Which exact tent is this? Hilleberg has so many different levels it's hard to tell which one you have. Hey bushcrafter or not, your setup is your setup and I was impressed with this setup using the limb for both front tie offs.
Another cracking camp, Beautiful location. Couple of quick questions: 1, What does your average pack weigh when fully loaded with gear, food and water? 2, Even though you are really fit, does it become a struggle doing those long hikes into camp? Thank you.
Hmm if u include water and camera gear it’s usually 22/23 kg maybe more maybe a-bit less. I do have some really light weight bits of gear which helps keep total weight down. Yes it’s hard but I like the challenge of it. Food taste better after hours of hard walking
@@AbelandVictoria Cheers for that, I've been trying to put a pack together and take maximum gear for comfort but without going broke trying to buy lighter gear, I'm struggling to get my pack under 20KG Without Food and Water - My guess, about 5KG for one night. Being That I'm 47 years old and Not fit - I struggle with it, but I try to Improve bit by bit. Thank you for That, it's been really helpful Info.
If that's the spot I think it is, there's a good source of firewood nearby: that's about 150-200 metres from the bushline above the cobb resivoir - short walk to scavange firewood.
I thought you might head this way after we did Sylvester mission recently. I contemplated taking some wood from the wood shed to go here lol. Would have been to much of a task because pepi keep getting wet playing in the snow.
