- Snowdonia | Eryri Mountain Wild Camp in the TarpTent Scarp 1 with STUNNING views and sunset
In this video, I head up to the high mountain summits of the Carneddau in Eryri National Park for what turned out to be a stunning solo mountain camp. The forecast was for perfect weather however, brutal winds began to smash the tent throughout the night, picking up the next day to very difficult conditions.
I was afforded superb views across the Ogwen Valley and the rugged and majestic peaks within. This was a truly magical wild camp, with stunning scenery, spectacular and beautiful sunsets and one I will never forget. My shelter, the TarpTent 'Scarp 1' performed admirably and shrugged off some very powerful gusts of wind.
Thank you for watching and always; leave no trace - Chris

Chris 🧐 Just read your comment on Tom Heaney's channel 👍. You are absolutely spot on, You expressed what a lot of people like me who's an experienced wild camper feel about this certain individual. And the other individual with lots of subs (183k) needs to be aware that his name is being used to give his B######T channel credibility. And last but not least a long overdue sub 👍 look forward to your next video 😉
@Johnnygee10 thank you very much mate - and I agree. Let's all get back to enjoying the outdoors - that's what it's all about 🏕️👍
Magic video again Chris. Whenever life feels a bit stressful or difficult your videos bring us to a different place and are so relaxing. Great views and stunning scenery. Keep up the good work YNWA
Glad the videos help with a bit of escapism! That's what it's all about mate!
Thank you for sharing those beautiful views.
You're very welcome 🏕️👍
great watch really enjoyed it
Thanks Peter - glad you enjoyed it
A really nice camp. I hope I can get some nice weather like this on my next trip. Would be nice to spend some time outside the tent again and maybe catch a sunset. Looking forward to the next one. ATB
You're overdue it mate since your last wet camp! Although it was a top watch as ever. Fingers crossed for you pal - looking forward to your next video as always 🏕️👊👍

What a fabulous spot you pitched. Gorgeous shots as usual. Thanks xx
Thanks Debra! ATB 🏕️
Thnx for taking us to Wales Chris. Absolutely brilliant camera work and drone footage is a very welcome addition.super skills there including music choice. Glad you didnt loose the drone. When i go wondering around the fells,i love to silence and just hearing nature,good for the mind indeed and a great escape. Tent did good and fantaatic pitch with great backdrop. People pay a fortune for that Thanks again Chris atb Andy
You're welcome mate - a top area with dramatic scenery. Thanks for watching
That was great. Amazing scenery , great camp 👍
Cheers, fantastic area mate!
@@MCMOutdoorswhen I was at school in Liverpool we used to go to the area on geography field trips, to learn about glaciation 😂 Used to go on school camping holidays to Anglesey too 😊👍
The first bit of music you used is so good, a perfect choice.
Thanks mate - takes me a while to choose!
Great video as always Chris. Keep up the good work
Thanks pal 👍
Beautiful video. Thanks.
Thanks Wendy - glad you enjoyed it
Incredible video

Very beautiful scenery indeed, am watching from Canada 🇨🇦 Thanks for sharing ❤
Very welcome - thank you for watching
Brilliant video and amazing views many thanks xx
Glad you enjoyed it 😁🏕️
Well worth bringing the drone! Some really nice footage Chris
Thanks - wanted to capture the area properly - ATB
A belter of a camp Chris, thank you for sharing it with us.🙏🏻
A great edit and as always, you remain a true ambassador for the great outdoors . 👍
Glad you enjoyed it mate and thanks for the feedback - I'm seeing youtube reward increasingly nonsensical click bait and fake disaster videos - worst night this, almost died that - it's becoming unbearable. I'm stepping firmly away and even if youtube doesn't push the content as much, keeping it true to the real star of the show which is the outdoors. ATB
Love the efforts you go to mate. Well what a lovely place to pitch your tent. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing. 👍
No worries - thank you for watching mate
Thanks for another brilliant video Chris. You are right, some of us live vicariously thru your videos - walking the hills and mountains as if we’re there. I’m a long way from the landscapes I love and getting too old to get up those hills anyway. All the best from Australia 🇦🇺
Great to hear that - thank you for watching and leaving a comment - ATB
Thanks for another great video Chris. Lovely location and great photography. All the best mate 👌
Glad you enjoyed pal - ATB
Wow those mountains are just amazing! Things of beauty,just incredible! I really hope that footage is going to be put onto canvas as it's far to spectacular to not be viewed daily!
What a camp out eh & thank you for capturing the idyllic splendour and all that mother nature has provided for us.
Thanks Jane! 😀 Glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏕️
Always great shots in yer vids 👍🏼 Thanks for a little bit of natures peace ✨🫶🏻✨
Glad you enjoyed :-)
Cheers Chris top drone work as usual... timed that sunset so well... ATB bud
Thanks pal - got lucky with the sunset here - fantastic
Hi Chris, absolutely stunning video
I just love your videos. As someone that can't climb mountains and go for long walks it's just amazing to see. Cheers and thanks for all you do. Have a great day. 👍😊🍻
Thanks Cath, that's what it's all about. Have a top week
@@MCMOutdoors thanks so much Chris you too. 😊❤️👍
beautiful video, greetings from Spain
Thanks for watching 🙏
Cracking spot Chris and some pretty decent weather for this time of year. I hope you’re well mate 👍🏻
Thanks pal - top location 🏕️
Good camp. That power bank looks decent, Especially the wireless feature.
Nice one Dom 🏕️👌
nice video thankyou
Thanks for watching
Nice!
Glad you enjoyed mate !
Fantastic video Chris, sat on that spot looking over to Tryfan more times than I care to remember, arguably the best view in Snowdonia.❤
I will be back as soon as I can :-) Thanks for watching - definitely a stunning vantage point
Stunning Chris !
Great seeing you out mate.
Drone shots 👌👌
Do like the look of the tarp tent ( stop buying tents Graham!)😂😂😂
Atb Graham
Haha, there is no such thing as too many tents! ATB
Your right !
Just hiding places 😁😂😂
Getting out into the Great Outdoors is so overlooked by many.
I’m a community mental health nurse, and it’s TGO the keeps my heart full, and my mind empty!
Thanks for all you do, mate.
Welcome mate, getting into the outdoors is highly beneficial for your MH as you will know - everyone should be prescribed a good dose of the outdoors each week!
Thanks Chris, that was fab and looks great on my tv screen. Will be there in May for a sunrise hike up Snowdon…fingers crossed i’ll get good skies.
Thank you for watching - a stunning area mate! ATB 👍👌
Very good. You can tell you’ve had years of experience at this lark!
I've done a fair few wild camps in my time now 😉 thank you for watching 👍🏕️
Watching this before I turn in for the night...what an absolutely beautiful place (that has now been screenshot to add to my own list of places I MUST visit...so thank you for that).
Now to rewind the video back to 17:17...& I shall bid you goodnight sir.
All the best
.Wish.
Glad you enjoyed the video - thank you for watching 🏕️
Great vid as always mate, glad you enjoyed your rare trip out and to mention it's for those who can't make it up there these days. Keep up the great work pal. 👍
Cheers Daz!
Good vid mate beautiful scenery 👍💙
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it!
Stunning......you're giving Tony Noble a run for his money 👌 Pitching a tent really is an art form isn't it? Well done....cheers 🍻
Thanks for watching mate, I'm pretty sure that Noble will be adept with his Scarp 1 now. Was a top camp mate - ATB
@MCMOutdoors actually I meant you're giving him a run for his money with the photography LOL. The videos you put together of the landscape were stunning. Not that Tony isn't good at pitching a tent too 😄
Oh, haha. Yeah, Noble takes some cracking pictures 🏕️👍
hi Chris , long time subscriber,really enjoyed your last to camps in my local favourite place snowdonia, stunning drone footage and tent views👌
Cheers Paul - glad you enjoyed it mate. ATB
That was a great camp for you Chris ....You really did capture the escapism of such a beautiful place with your drone footage and added music ....excellent mate 👍🏻😁👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it mate - and thank you for leaving a comment
Top camp mate, need to get my arse to Snowdonia/Brecons looks stunning, all the best Chris.
Cheers Jim, all the best mate
Thank you for the content.. oh and when you mentioned these videos are also for people who don't / cant get out..
that's proper nice/decent... top marks fella👍
No worries 👍
I just stumbled upon this whilst looking for a good wild camping video to settle down to. Within 2 mins of listening to you talking, I knew there was going to be no unnecessary waffle going on. Absolutely brilliant video, mate! Great location, awesome set up, incredible scenery, and good editing. Just subbed and looking forward to your future vids!
Great to hear the feedback mate! Thanks v much for the sub - ATB
Up round Bara Mawr and Bara Fach? Love it up there. Great drone footage lad.
Not too far yes - a superb area! Thanks very much for watching!
Great video, looks amazing up there. Looking to do my first Snowdonia wild camp next month so hopefully find somewhere as nice and peaceful 😊
Glad you enjoyed it - have a top camp 🏕️
Absolutely stunning location Chris. Beautiful scenery in every direction. Great tent and brilliant drone footage. What a place! 👍
Superb area - will be many more camps in Eryri / Snowdonia this year!
Chris - that drone footage was superb, and as usual the videography was first class all round. I'm a lone hiker/camper as well (mostly because i'm an obnoxious sod!) 🤣but i'm happy in my own company on the fells
Glad you enjoyed it Matt - thank you for commenting mate
That was a belter Chris. The Scarp 1 was my go to tent until I watched your video on the Soulo after which I pulled the trigger on an RL. Great pitch and the drone shots give a different perspective. Looking forward to your next one ,Atb.
Yes mate, a great tent - superb rigidity and for around 1.4kg - cracking strength too. I do love the Soulo and own a BL version now. Thank you for watching mate - ATB
Great early spring sunset!
Was fantastic to be out in nature, peace and solitude again - thank you for leaving a comment
Great vid as always Chris, hoping to get myself back up north this summer for a couple of days in snowdonia, I love it there, not been for years! looking forward to seeing the new tents too, all the best mate 🤙🏻
Nice one mate - yeah, it's a top area ! Some epic tents incoming for the channel :-)
These drone shots really made this video, what a spot.
Glad you enjoyed it 🏕️
You captured all the beauty up there! Another great video 😊
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it :-) have to work on my pronunciations though!
@@MCMOutdoorsyou do alright, although Moel famoo 😉
That looks stunning chris. Memories coming flooding back looking over to Anglesey. I actually talk to myslef sometimes when reminiscing 😂😂 is that normal ?!
Used to go Rhosneigr as a teen to my friends caravn, loved it. Fishing for Mackrell it was ace.
Thanks for taking the time to produce these quality vids.
ATB phil.
Haha, I do the same ...... I'm a very sentimental person, have some amazing memories there and it was almost sad remembering those times and realising how fast life is going by .....
@@MCMOutdoors yeah I know how you feel. Funny how sometimes the past feels much better than the future, an I'm glad you talk to yourself too 😂
Cinematography that good it was like being there. Thanks Chris
Great to hear that! Thank you for watching 🏕️
Honestly wasn't it just amazing!
Absolutely spectacular.
The majestic peaks of Eryri are magical - cheers for watching mate
@MCMOutdoors a certain sadness to it when you mentioned the lost industries.as our society goes insane there's always the solace of the countryside and hills.
@grahamarnhem8659 very true - escaping the utter insanity of society at the moment
Thank for the watch, I always enjoy your videos and look forward to the next one. Especially when you "tease" us with a possible surprise coming up :)
Some quality things coming up! Stay tuned! 😉
A stunning locations with beautiful views from all sides. The Scap 1 looked perfect up there and took the battering of wind like a champ. A very enjoyable camp Chris.
Nice one mate - tent performed very well. ATB
One of my favourite channels to watch on UA-cam, the drone footage was absolutely amazing👍🏻
Quality feedback mate, pleased you enjoyed it!
That drone hit the spot. Great work 😊
Thanks 👍 Glad you enjoyed it :-)
Absolutely Incredible… You have captured the landscape soooo beautifully Chris 🥲🥰
One of my favourite view points in Eryri 🙌 it really is “The Perfect Mountain”… thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it Christina - thanks for your help too :-) ATB
Stunning.
Spectacular landscape - thanks for watching
Cracking vid and set up Chris 😊…..just took the plunge and got my first Hot Tent today….Pomoly circle 6. Off up to Aberdeenshire this weekend for test run…45mph and heavy rain,should be a good test 🤞🔥
Nice choice - check out my mate 'Goin Solo' who made a super hot tent video the other month, a really relaxing way to camp. ATB
Cinematography at its finest 👌 just incredible Chris.
🏕️😀 Cheers! Stunning scenery!
Hi Chris What an Incredible Beautiful Awesome Amazing Scenery ❤😊
Great to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
Looked another blinder Chris 🤙🏼
Hopefully bump into you at some point up there🤞🏼🏕
Glad you enjoyed it mate - ATB
Nice one always good to get out especially for the head space thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you for watching & commenting
Amazing pitch and stunning quality cinematography 👍 Views for days🤩
Cheers Benny, stunning area. Will be lots more coming from there this year 🏴 thanks for watching mate
Another great vid in spectacular countryside. Drone shots and the music were outstanding. Those views of Tryfan and the Snowdon Horseshoe bring back personal memories for me as well.
I chickened out on the jump between Adam and Eve.
Have you tried Tank Petrol by Northern Monk yet ? It's sublime, then come to think about it so are the rest of their craft beers.
ATB Mike.
I have mate - a lovely craft beer that one! Never jumped Adam and Eve - that slip / near fall on Sharp Edge many years back has scarred me for life!! Thank you for watching mate
Great video mate, glad I found your channel, new subscriber here 🍻
Welcome aboard & thank you!
Lovely new location. Another great and atmospheric vid.
Thanks Stu - appreciate the comment and watch mate
Hi Chris love the Music in the back ground it’s Awesome Amazing it goes well with Awesome Beautiful Amazing Scenery ❤😊
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!
Awesome pitch and awesome footage 👏 Def worth carrying the drone. Such a beautiful place I've only been once, just a little out of reach ATM 6 hour drive, I must make the effort and go for all the scrambles.
I'm the same when it comes to eating I have to leave the room when the mouth breathers are around 😂 atb from sunny Sunderland. Leave no trace but leave a like 👍
Thanks mate - an enjoyable one - ATB, Chris
Spectacular scenery in this very well done video, Chris! Your camera work and editing just continue to get better and better with these adventures. Really like that Scarp 1 tent and how taught the fly becomes when everything is attached. Very nice tent. Thanks for taking us along on this adventure. Cheers!
Cheers - the Scarp 1 is a great tent when pitched as designed. Strong and stable, plus light weight too - you're very welcome and ATB
Enjoyed that one! Beauty spot and the drone footage was awesome.
Glad you liked it mate and thanks for leaving me a comment
Looked a brilliant camp Chris stunning views , idealic , soulem , hope you enjoyed some me time resting and recharging the batteries. 🍺
Excellent solitude and mindfulness up there!
Brilliant video Chris - amazing views - epic mate. Honestly dronemeister extraordinaire!
Also we are top of the league! YNWA
Cheers mate - a stunning area! Let's hope we win for Klopp! ATB pal - YNWA
Great video and what an awesome pitch! Thanks for sharing, keep them coming mate!
Glad you enjoyed it mate
Wowww...a fantastic location chris the music , drone footage and views where the best mate .. cheers mate and all the best 🏕 👍 👌
Cheers Gaz - hope you're good mate. ATB 👍👍
I prefer solo camping too. As a lone female in Oz, always take mace ( trained to use) and a short blade legal carry, because , well......we are the land of missing people. Lols.
Seriously tho, at one in nature, gives peace like nothing else.
Haha, cheers for watching Kellie. The peace and solitude is unbeatable 🏕️
I’ve never been to wales yet. It’s on the list
Definitely a place to visit mate
@@MCMOutdoors with a name like Jenkins I suppose it would be rude not too 😂
Stunning views bud, and great video as usual ❤. where did you park for this hike?
Thanks for watching pal - was lucky enough to get a lift in on this one!
Alright Chris,
Did a camp up there in the kuiu a little while back. Largely untapped gem along that ridge mate 😁
Bet you really appreciated that solo camp after being so busy? Nice to see the scarp out again too 😊
Take care,
Adge
Alright mate - I don't own any Kuiuiuiui's! 😂 Top spot, a very relaxing and mindful camp. Thanks for watching mate
Great video 😊 stunning views ☺️
Really glad you enjoyed it - ATB
👍👍⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️👍👍
Love the video, definitely worth lugging the drone up the hill, great footage.😊
Glad you enjoyed it and glad I took the drone, ATB
Fantastic video Chris , so glad you found your drone
Looked a spectacular pitch
Fantastic views
Looking forward to the next
Thanks pal - much appreciated
Great video again and awesome drone footage of our machllyn loop, was a pleasure to meet you on the reservoir road 👍🏼
Great to meet you and the lads - hope you guys had a top hike! Wind was definitely brutal!
@@MCMOutdoors done a bit of wild camping around snowdonia and Anglesey with my son and the lads if you want some locations for the channel
@johntwigge6982 drop me an email mate......
mcmoutdoorshow@yahoo.co.uk
Another good one 🫡👍🏴great drone footage 🙏🏻
Glad you liked it 👍🏕️
Magic as always mate! Incredible footage. Scarp 1 or 1 Ultra? What's your favourite as you own and use both.
TarpTent loaned me the Ultra to test..... So I had to send that back. For me, the sil nylon version is a better fit - the Ultra is a very specialist tent - both fantastic in their own right, but Silnylon for me 👌
Another really enjoyable video, and the drone shots really enhanced it, great sense of perspective of where you were pitched. Cheers Chris!
Cheers - glad you enjoyed it mate & thanks for taking time out to comment
Thanks for the video, a great bit of brain medicine
Glad you enjoyed - outdoor escapism is always good!
