    Love Great Mis Tor. Hemery described it as the Dominant Peer of Walkham Country. It's one of my "go to" places for a short stroll. You are in danger of inspiring me to get out in my old tent! Keep up the vlogs, very enjoyable!

    Another enjoyable video and great Petra cam footage, I spent Saturday night just below Berry Pound myself in my bivvy bag a tarp setup and was rewarded with a beautiful view of the plough all night.
    And as you mentioned was quite chilly with the strong nw winds in the night. ATB Jason.

      Yes it is the Widecombe side, I started at Bennett’s Cross by the Warren House Inn at sunrise , onto Birch Tor, Hookey Tor then Grimspound and then the two moors way to have a check pub lunch at The Old Inn at Widecombe and then back onto the moors to Berry pound and broke camp at sunrise before driving 240 miles back to North Kent.

    I've watched a couple of your videos now and subscribed as they are so well made, informative and entertaining. Great Mis is a lovely Tor to camp on but a bit of an arduous walk from Roos Tor! Not an approach I'll be trying again in a hurry. All the best to you and Petra, John.

    • @outdoorsinspiration9284
      @outdoorsinspiration9284  4 роки тому +2

      Hi John, thank you, that's very much appreciated. The route from Roos to Gt Mis is steep and strew with rock isn't it... I remember being up there with a team when one of them lost her contact lens in the dark amid 'Mis Tor Clitter' - oh, what a hoot that was - and she found it 😂

    Fab video Shamus and Petra! You are a great presenter and the Petra shots just add a little bit extra. Great angles from your shots such as when you are first getting your gear into the tent. Its great to see that someone puts a lot of thought into their videos! I am going to highlight a couple of points as I know that you have a sense of humour!! I like the way you almost run when you have set the camera up to do a walk by!! Finally according to Petra (The real one!) you are not supposed to stand on the pegs as you push them into the ground! Keep up the good work and get back out soon. Tom

    • @outdoorsinspiration9284
      @outdoorsinspiration9284  4 роки тому +1

      Haha 😂 That's cool with the peg thing... I've bent a few in my time. I've seen that Petra H video recommending a rock, but you know, somewhere in the back of my mind I also remember a Hilleberg video recommending using the ball of your foot as well 😂 - I may be wrong? Anyway, Tom, you know how it is when you've done something for 40 years you just keep doing it. Thank you for all the positive feedback - top chap 👍

      Hi Gavin, I was trying to figure your campsite from the photo you posted. I hope you had a good night - that wind was biting - In reality not that cold but flipping' unseasonably cold (if you get my drift) - Yes Petra has a fantastic sequence, once I can get her to stop posing for photographs.
      I still think back fondly to that day up under Kneeset Foot while we searched away for a casualty who long since vanished - ATB Shamus :)

    Another very enjoyable video Shamus. I like the short Petra-cam views. Would you consider an Essentials video on sleeping systems? What sort of temperatures do you get on Dartmoor at night in a tent? I believe the r value of the sleep mat affects the comfort rating of a bag but not fully how that affects what I should choose. I wriggle a lot at night, does that affect what I consider buying? So much to figure out when I don't yet have experience camping 🙄

    • @outdoorsinspiration9284
      @outdoorsinspiration9284  4 роки тому

      Hi Caroline - sleep systems are on the cards for a Thursday night. it will be in few weeks - I need to break it down because to do the lot in one chop would be too much - so... It'll start with sleeping pads and mats, I would think.
      I'll be honest, the most comfortable and warmest mats, for me, always cost an arm and a leg - but you have a good nights sleep. Anyway - yes is the answer :)
