Wildcamping uk. 2 days hike and camp.
Hello, and welcome back to another video . Firstly, a big thank you to all my "buy me a coffee" supporter's for making my drive down to Dartmoor possible, without whom there would be no trip.
Wow ,Dartmoor, I just love this place, especially Tavey cleave, which was my first port of call for a camp . And after meeting up with Ant, a good friend of mountains and Moors fame on Instagram we made our way to the cleave but having to walk the long way round due to live fire exercise on willsworthy range. Day two was with Simon of the famous youtube channel Rialobran, Simon and I met up at tavey cleave and walked up to great links tor for our camp and what a great laugh and time we had, and all documented in this video.
Hope you enjoy it , and please don't forget to like and subscribe it really helps the channel out.
Please consider helping me make more trips like with the cost of one coffee.

All the kit I use is listed in the description box plus other information.. But to answer your question, the microphone is the Comica vimo c wireless microphone system, I'm glad you said the audio was mint because I prefer my other wireless microphone, which is the Comica boomx-d wireless.. The only reason I take the vimo C on camps is because it has a portable charging case .. Thank you for watching.

    Lovely vid. I’ve started using a Lanshan - I find I can use it as a tent or in hot weather as a bivi bag/groundsheet. But I do live the simplicity of the army bivi bag. I take it on day hikes as a seat mat and emergency shelter. Amazing kit.

This bivi bag is so much lighter than the olive green original, I've really never thought to take it along on a walk as a seat , think I shall start doing that , it's definitely light enough to not be a bother..

These bags are just more convenient for backpacking. They're easier to get in the UK, but since BREXIT small packages have a tendency to disappear into the unknown so prefer to buy on mainland Europe nowadays.

I did take the ionosphere with me when I walked the south downs ways , I think that's when I started to regret it.. 😂.

      I have, over the years of wildcamping, accumulated a ton of wildcamp gear, most of which I have sold on , but I have kept a couple of things back like this set up which is my favourite for wildcamps , quick easy simple , I do have a modified Dutch hooped bivvy but tend to favour this set up. The pillow is still with me and has been on numerous camps and dartmoor expeditions since and has never failed me as far as comfort and sleep are concerned. I have another channel about photography which takes up alot of my spare time plus I make a small amount of money through my photography ( Not from youtube) so that takes president and because of this have not had time to go out and do these sort of camps, my Last one was nearly a year ago, but will endeavour to make time in 2024. Thank you for watching. Good luck and enjoy your wildcamping experiences. It's a blast. Atb joe
