Exped Dura 5R | Sleeping Mat | Unboxing
The Exped Dura 5R is a durable 3-4 season inflatable sleeping mat with its own pump sack. Geared towards durability rather than weight saving, I am hoping that it will hold up to future wild camping abuse. Here, I unbox it and try it in my Abisko Lite 1 tent.

Wild Camping | The Blorenge | Wales | Abisko Lite 1

Wild camping in Wales is special and so I took my Mavic 3 drone, my two eldest sons and their tents up a mountain above Abergavenny in the Brecon Beacons to see twinkly lights (copywrite Linleys360)! This was Plan B as we wanted to camp closer to Crickhowell however the Green Man festival was there.

    Fjallraven don’t have any customer service unfortunately. They do make great high quality tents but if something goes wrong or it isn’t right you are on your own sadly. I would never buy a tent new made by them ever again. I would and have bought a second hand tent of theirs though just because of the cost saving. I have an Abisko View 2 and an Abisko Endurance 4.

    Cats with fighting daggers and inflatable beds do not go together. Prepare to get very familiar with the repair kit. R values are the thermal properties of the material its made of but thickness of that material needs to be also put into that equation to see how good a performer it is (also 70mm is not 3"). For comparison the same R value equates to 165mm of polystyrene so that is quite a claim. Will be interested to see how this performs under the Hedley snoozing frame in Winter.

      Hi John, I have used the tent three times - two of which had nearly no condensation and the third had a LOT of condensation due to very damp air and no wind, however it didn't come into the inner tent so was dry in there. In the spring/summer/autumn you may be able to keep the door half cranked to eliminate this as the inner is surprisingly warm, but obviously in colder weather you need to close it right up. That said, I'd imagine any tent of this size has condensation. I have the footprint now which adds a little weight but helps.

    As ever, exquisite camera work. You're an artist Hedley, possibly a bit mad...but an artist. We'll not discuss your burning crotch, sir. A wonderfully entertaining vid mate. Thank you.

    That was great. You had perfect 🌅 I only just found your channel. Guessing you’ve moved on from Wales now. I've hiked for a long time but only recently started wild camping. I just picked a better tent up this week. This was a good video. I'm still pretty new to making videos but I'm learning. I haven't been doing it for long. I'll follow your journey. Liked and subscribed. Looking forward to your next one👋👍

    Hi Hedley, Great views from the top. It sounded very windy so I'm surprised you were able to fly your drone. I think we need a wild camp calendar so we can decide whether to fly or not!! All the best!!
