    I'm local to there so camp around there all the time, I had an MSR pocket rocket which is a good stove, but it needs a lot of protection in the wind, so for the last 18 months I've been using a SOTO Windmaster which is an amazing stove for the mountains, as the name suggests it works great in the wind. The summit of Pen yr Ole Wen is actually a lot quicker to get to than your estimate, I'd say you could have done it quite easily in 2hrs up and down.

      Cheers Mark, I will definitely check out the Soto Windmaster sounds perfect for our needs 😁👍 we will Defo do Pen Yr Ole Wen in the future, thanks for watching ATB Mark & Simon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍👌

      Hi Mark, yeah we could have done Pen Yr ole wen in a couple of hours but we stop to film clips all the time so we decided to chill out for a few hours instead. On the plus side it gives us an excuse to come back to do it 😀 that Soto wind master looks a cracking stove ( thanks for the recommendation) ATB Mark and thanks for watching the video 👍

    One of of my favourite spots. Lovely and sheltered.
    Went up last summer but only a day hike. Took the kids up to see the plane crash remains.
    Great vid. Liked the intro!

    Now that was a great camp Mark and Simon like you said makes a change with the better weather making it nice in the evening.
    That champion beer is good beer I do enjoy that one.
    Can’t believe you drive all the way up from Cardiff.
    TFS guys and roll on the better weather

      Cheers Dave, the weather was on our side for once and it was great to just chill out by the tent on a winters evening. I do like that Champion beer although I think it was too strong for Simon 😁, the 4 hour drive up isn’t too bad as we’ve got used to it now plus I’m up North Wales quite regularly with Karen visiting her mum and dad 😁👍

    Absolutely gorgeous place! Would love to see it sometime. Great video! We have all definitely watched as a hiking partner fell into the drink and been glad it was them that went first, haha. The drone shots were stunning! The helicopter was pretty intense, while doing a study abroad in the Bahamas we were buzzed by a U.S. coast guard helicopter. Got close enough that the down wash rocked our sailboat.

      Cheers and thanks for watching, it’s a lovely area with loads of camping spots, it’s the first time I managed to record him going into the water he does it quite often lol the helicopter was a bit unnerving tbh but I can’t imagine being in a boat with one overhead - wouldn’t fancy that lol ATB Mark & Simon 👍😁

    Cracking video again boys. That helicopter was mad!
    I've got a brs but mainly use in summer or as a backup. For a gas stove I used to use MSR pocket rocket but it's proper loud and have recently got a soto windmaster. Whilst it's bigger than the brs it's more reliable and better for larger pots or doing more than just boiling water.
    Glad you enjoyed your trip again :-)

    What wonderful video with breathtaking views. It's such a shame the Brecon Beacons doesn't have such mountains.
    It's always worth wearing gaiters if there is any chance of a water crossing especially this time of year.
    What a change in the weather 😮 but you got back safely. Atb Taff 🤠👊👊

    If you’re on the lookout for a new stove then the pocket rocket is a great choice, the 2 is great but if you can stretch to the deluxe it’s worth it. Great video as usual guys 👌🏻

      Yer that's right , as you look at your tents from the lake if you climbed slightly higher behind there's a flat shelf to pitch on , probably ABIT more exposed if windy , but another option 👍

      Cheers Charlene, drones are an extra bit of footage which make a video more interesting I reckon as for the helicopter I always get a bit nervous when one of those come too close, we seem to see a fair few of them on our wild camps 😁. As for the weather it wouldn’t be a wild camp without a bit of wind - especially when we get out lol 😂😂👍👌

  • @markmurphy7356

    Before you buy a new stove try a different gas. I use a Soto windmaster and had the same problem with the Coleman gas, I changed to Primus gas which works brilliantly even in sub zero temperatures. Great video. ATB Mark.
