When I was on the street and eating out of the bins and supermarket skips the addicts and Eastern Europeans used to make a total mess. I'd clean it up because it was destroying my source. They did indeed introduce cages later and bring them all in. Yeah, everything has a consequence. Good point. Mark
@@karenguttridge That's OK Kaz. It's a journey and like an adventure it's made me who I am today. There were other thoughts useful to beginners to. Peace!
5 good tips you have selected Kaz. All of them are of value both for new and old wild campers. If I should add anything then it is this advice from the Norwegian Mountain Code: "Don’t be ashamed to turn around." Sometimes we just need to say that this is not our day and go home - there will always be new chances for wild camping or hiking:)
Absolutely love that snippet of advice 😍 I know people often view it as ‘failure’ if they turn back. But I see it as exactly the opposite-a huge success for making the right choice 👍
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Alden Leo thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Hi again, watching another vid👍 to me a deer screaming is really blood curdling😱 will post a link if find good one, totally agree re water situation! don't sleep under or near BEECH trees, they drop boughs
Don’t think I’ll ever properly get used to animal screams 🤣 That’s great advice about beech trees-I didn’t know they dropped boughs so easily-thank you! 😊👍
Thanks Dean! So glad I came across your channel tonight too 😍 And I’ve noted your mention of camping around Merrivale-I didn’t know about it and the ease of access/car parks etc 😊👍
Great tips Kaz! I especially like the tip of checking out the animals and wildlife possible in the area you’re going to, and listening to their calls/ sounds! Great share! 🥾🥾👍
Hi Jennifer 😊 Glad you found it useful! I used to get so spooked by the animal noises so really wanted to find some way of getting used to them. This most definitely helped a lot but I still have a bit of a moment when I hear a fox scream! Thanks for watching and commenting 😊👍 Karen
Very helpful thanks Kaz. I wish these restrictions would hurry up and ease so I can give wild camping a go and start and use all of these tips. I think I’d have to sleep in ear plugs, otherwise I’ll never sleep!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it and good to get feedback on me adding footage from experience (wasn’t sure whether to add or not!) Hope all okay with you 😊👍 Karen
My top tip, Be Safe ! People are your biggest threat when Wild Camping. You are safer camping alone in a forest in the middle of nowhere than you would be walking down a UK Highstreet after dark.
Good to watch Kaz. Sometimes good to learn the hard way, You'll never make the same mistake twice. Glad to see your still enjoying it. Great to see. Take care.🥰
Hey Karen!!Lol!! we need these tips because we have never gone Wild camping!!! We will def start out in the garden first😁 I didn't even think of that🙈See told you we are rookies...Lol!!I think I would freak out hearing strange noises in the night. We live in Ireland, so I don't think anything will eat us... but still... it could be scary😂!! I didn't know that is what a fox sounds like. I look forward to watching your other videos and to get to know you!!!
Fab video - loved the Tawney owl sound. Those foxes do sound like someone is being murdered! We should do a collab in the summer. Thanks for the tag - I'm on the case!
Great vid Kaz! Thank you for the shout out/nomination, I’d best start thinking!! There are so many of these vids now!! 😀 loved how you showed clips of your other vids too, really good editing! 😊
Thanks Karen-you’re right, lots of these vids now-we’ll have to come up with a new theme! I’m glad you liked the extra clips... not sure if I’ve done that before...
Hello Kaz, cracking video, clear and confident tips. Really useful 👍 we always carry water and a filter, just incase. Our Rhinog wild camp we carried 7 litres 😬 that just saw us over the night and back to the car. Great tip about bot pitching under precarious trees! All the best, Ceri and Kat ❤☕🤗
Thank you! Think I’m a bit obsessed about water now 🤪 I tend to go off for around a week or longer so I’m always manically tracing my finger along streams in the maps to make sure I pass by them 🙄
Thanks for the tag Kaz. I shall have to think of some original ideas as I’ve seen so many of these videos that all my ideas have already been taken 🤦🏻♂️ Some good tips, especially about the noises. May be a few days before I get a chance to do my video as I’m just back at work today for a 7 day set. I’ll definitely do it though. You have my word 👍😊
I love it too but the sounds did alarm me a little at first. I’m okay now, although deer sounds sometimes get my heart going! Thanks for watching and the comment Chris 😊👍
@@ChrisJB I think that might be true. If I’m by the beach and can hear animals/birds there with the sea background noise it’s just fine. Also fine in the lakes. But if I’m in woodland and everything is groaning, creaking and rustling around me then the animal noises seem more sinister somehow!
Personally on this tag I think 'leave no trace' should be first and foremost, it can't be hammered home enough especially now with 'stay-cations' looking like a real possibility and more novices camping. Good all round advice, Sub'd.
Totally agree with you and I really hope 🤞all will be well when we flood out into the hills again.. I always carry a spare plastic bag and put rubbish in that as I spot it-I know I shouldn’t have to but I just can’t bear to see and leave all the mess there! Thanks so much for the sub 👍 I’ll head over and watch some of your videos this weekend 😃
Bit random but where are your socks from? Non of mine are long enough & my boots are forever getting grit & stones in, so I'm on the hunt for long socks like yours that I can slouch down to try & block the bits getting in. X
They are Smartwool hiking socks which are my faves. I got them from Cotswold Outdoor but I think this is them www.amazon.co.uk/Smartwool-Womens-Hike-Medium-Socks/dp/B0018NSHH6/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=smartwool+socks+womens&qid=1611959713&sprefix=smartwool&sr=8-5

Aww I’m sorry you went through that experience 😣 But you’ve definitely got the point I was making about consequences 😊👍

Great advice and some top tips there, Kaz. Thank you so much for continuing the tag. Stay safe and keep on smiling ☺️ ATB Dave 🤜🤛
Thanks for setting me up to do it! Just about to watch your latest video 👍
Great advice Kaz 👍
I've haven't come across your channel before
Ill be sure to follow you on your future adventures.
Take care

@@karenguttridge Ah, that must be startling, esp. if you’re asleep! A tent doesn’t feel like a lot of protection sometimes 🤣

Haha.. it’s a bit daunting at first, for sure! I still jump out of my skin at the fox 😂 Not sure why I put myself through all this really 🤣🤣
Really well presented, Kaz and good to hear both your tips and from your experiences. Thanks for sharing and all the best.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it and good to get feedback on me adding footage from experience (wasn’t sure whether to add or not!) Hope all okay with you 😊👍 Karen
Really great tips Kaz. Just recorded my 5 tips and tagged you. So you're ahead of the game! 😁 Should be up later this week. All the best!👍
I tagged her too! 😂
That’s great Des-Thanks for thinking of me-look forward to your video!
My top tip, Be Safe ! People are your biggest threat when Wild Camping. You are safer camping alone in a forest in the middle of nowhere than you would be walking down a UK Highstreet after dark.
I definitely believe that 👍 It was that thought I kept telling myself on my very first wild camp when I was too tense to sleep!
Saw it completely now! Good tips! 😁👍 I'll have to check out the other channels and carry enough water but not too much! 😀
Thanks Kaat! I guess we all have things we worry about-for me one of them is water!
@@karenguttridge that's a difficult one cause even when you plan well it sometimes turns out bad and you don't have enough water! ATB
Some great words of wisdom there Kaz 👍👍👍
Thank you for that! It’s good to hear what everyone makes of me rambling on!
Good to watch Kaz. Sometimes good to learn the hard way, You'll never make the same mistake twice. Glad to see your still enjoying it. Great to see. Take care.🥰
Yes if you learn by experience you don’t tend to forget! Can’t wait to get out there again 😊 Thanks for watching and commenting-I appreciate it!👍
Nice tips Kaz, finding out what surrounding wildlife is in the area - top tip! Foxes do sound horrendous! Great video :)
Thanks Simon 👍 I’ve had a few messages from people in other countries telling me their wildlife sounds so much worse!! 😱🤣
@@karenguttridge 😂😂 we are lucky 😀

A nice back drop and surroundings for your presentation 👌
Stay safe atb Taff 🤠
Thanks for watching and your lovely comment Taff-it helps me such a lot to get feedback 😊👍
@@karenguttridge Kaz are you on Instagram?
@@Taffwildmanofthewoods Yes 😊 Mostly running as I’m linked to asics instagram.com/running.like.a.wrinkly

May be a few days before I get a chance to do my video as I’m just back at work today for a 7 day set.
I’ll definitely do it though. You have my word 👍😊
No worries Rob 😊 Yes it hard to come up with new ones but I guess just your take on all these ideas is new enough! Look forward to your video 😊👍
Great vid. Thanks Kaz 💙
Hope it was useful! 😊👍
I did this tag along with my garden camp out but it was too long so cut it out, I will do it again seperately. Good tips, all the best
Thanks 😊 I know what you mean about video length-I try to keep mine under 15 mins if I can-don’t think anyone wants anymore of me than that! 🤣
@@karenguttridge You are absolutely right, I go on so long it makes editing very difficult. Better planning is called for 😀
Cracking 5 tips Karen, one of the best 5 tips videos I've seen so far through this tag, good health and safe travels my friend,blessed be,Craig
Aww that’s lovely thanks Craig! You’re always so encouraging 😍
@@karenguttridge your most welcome, I really like your style of videos, most welcoming and friendly, safe travels, Craig
Thank you... This really helped me. 😊
That’s great! I’m really pleased to hear that 😃 I’m always happy to answer any questions as well 👍
Thanks for the tips and nomination Kaz, I'd better get out and film mine at the weekend 👍🙂.
I’m sure it will be great! 😍
Good one Kaz. I love the sounds of wildlife....a big part of the attraction, especially on the moors where sound really carries. ATB, Chris
I love it too but the sounds did alarm me a little at first. I’m okay now, although deer sounds sometimes get my heart going! Thanks for watching and the comment Chris 😊👍
@@karenguttridge I've never done a woodland camp yet. Perhaps the noises sound scarier there?! 😁.
@@ChrisJB I think that might be true. If I’m by the beach and can hear animals/birds there with the sea background noise it’s just fine. Also fine in the lakes. But if I’m in woodland and everything is groaning, creaking and rustling around me then the animal noises seem more sinister somehow!
Don't do a lot of social media. Found your tips and advice very good.
Hi Allen-that’s great to hear! Let me know if there’s anything in particular you’d like me to cover 😃👍

Great video!
Thank youuuu 😍👍
Great tips. Very useful video. Tagged you in my brew one :)
Thank you!! Love making a brew outdoors so going to enjoy this one!
Great and necessary tips.... just one other animal sound that can be alarming ... Muntjac Deer
I’ve just had a listen to what that sounds like and I agree!!
