  • This camp I head out to a Craggy Edge in the Northumberland countryside,
    Virtually in the middle of nowhere, Expecting to see no one, And who turns up from the other direction, The Back Packing Geordie, Phil, We had a chat and a pleasant evening,
    The wind, mist and heavy rain came in, and it was a blowy night.

    Cool camp Adrian, stunning views as always, I used my british army bivvy bag last night (had a center 3'zip put in ,easier to get in and out of the bivvy bag now), with my tarp, no condensation, just like the Dutch hooped bivvy, the crags look so inviting for a camp, tbf, everywhere you look up there does lol, good health and safe travels my friend, cheers craig

    Was up there this Friday but got there late and had to pitch well back from the crags as was running out of light. The climb up the front of the crags following the marked path is brutal, I'm guessing you came in from the East and Phil from the West the sensible way 😂

    Hi Adrian, I've been subbed for a while now, but rarely comment. Every video you post I think right, I must camp in some of those spots, then you come out with another cracking video/spot, I'm being overwhelmed with choices. I am over in the Scottish Borders, and often your camera pans over in the direction I live, when your in the Cheviots, which is nice to see. I camped on the Schil last weekend, and the views were stunning with a cracking sunset, but like your video the next day was a white out.
    Anyway I waffle.
    Thanks for the video, and keep up the good work.
    Atb cheers Stuart.
