    Hi Adrian, I enjoyed the vid, and Bella looked to be having a great time - a right little power horse carrying her gear, and you could see how excited she was being out with you, so my heart goes out to the pair of you that she took poorly and you had to head down, which was definitely the only decision. I hope she's all good now. There's been so many bugs and viruses going round, I had one myself last week - lasted 2 days then disappeared.

      Hi and thanks for watching, she loves it, and has said will do a camp every couple of weeks, she either pushed too hard going up and the headache caused the sickness or it was a 24 hour bug, she was spot on again the next evening.
      Cheers Adrian

    Ouch, a sick and sore time for Bella and she’s such a wee trouper ❤ She managed her way back home and I bet it doesn’t put her off camping. I brought my own misery on myself starting this at 60. Had water but didn’t drink it on the way and didn’t know that electrolytes staved off the leg cramps. Not the best of nights and I thought I was prepared!
    You must have been worried too but you always look for the good and your set up and lovely site made the adventure. You inspired me to use a tarp and I had the most amazing night under the stars ✨ Thanks for your great videos, I always enjoy them 😊

      Yes I know how you feel, 62 and I feel it, even carrying the two bags back placed extra strain on the legs lol
      I have to start training on my dog walks with the 15 kg on my back
      As I need to be able to do it for 6/7 days
      Glad you enjoy a bivy there is no looking back

    Вітання з Києва та британських членів Інтернаціонального легіону. Good decision, hope Bella is OK and not been put off. You need to train with some weight in Bergen. We train with 35Kg on our back and can, if necessary operate with that weight - BUT we train every day (mostly.) Bella did well with her pack but she will lose body heat very fast. Take care and stay well. BTW thoroughly enjoyed your vid which we caught on a very dubious i-net connection. Helen and Katarin Juska-Law, Stella and Terri with Robyn.

      Yes I am going to start the dog walks with my 15kg trail load
      Cant imagine 35kg you must be mega fit, mind 62 does have it’s drawbacks lol
      You think Bella was losing heat going up, interesting as she never seems to show she is sweating, I will wrap her straight up on arrival next time, I must translate the start of the comment

      So long as she is OK is the main thing...hopefully ready to get out gain.
      35 Kg is hard work, but as we train for that a lighter load is much more comfortable. A Roman soldier in the day carried the same weight most of the time. LOL time have not changed...Take care, Helen et al.

    I will be interested to see what you think of Ron's bivy. At 208gm that you noted, that must be one of his Superlights. Fyi, the Superlight bivies aren't waterproof, just spray proof with a dwr treated top. It will be ok if you keep your feet under the tarp. It weighs a bit more than other brands as it has side zipper, which I too prefer.
    If you wanted the equivalent of your army bivy you'd need to get his Event Soul bivy, and in the large size to match your issue bag. The Event Soul bivy is completely waterproof and in theory breathable. Its a 350g light weight equivalent of your army bivy, with a wire in the hood (not a pole). Just note that you need to seam seal the Event Soup bivy yourself.
