Camping in HEAVY RAIN in Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 | Ultralight Hiking Tent
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2023
- We bought a new tent, Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 and the weather forecast promised heavy rain so it was a good idea to test if this ultralight hiking tent is waterproof. I just hiked away one hour from our home, into the forests of Jokkmokk together with Annie, my border collie.
A week before I was on the snowmobile and now the snow was more or less gone, but still, some ice was left on the lakes.
I always try to say that you should enjoy your closest surrounding and use your time to get a lot of nature experiences as often as you can, even if they’re short. The grass is not always greener far away. And, you can learn a lot during these shorter trips. It’s a good idea to test new gear and equipment and new ideas. If you make a mistake or if something goes wrong you are only a short distance from home.
We hope you enjoy this video and thank you for watching. We also want to say an extra big thank you to our Patreons and you who support us on Buy Me A Coffee or in other ways.

Thank you! I had a fun 🙂 nice one!! 🙂
Brilliant! "I don't need yoga, I go camping!"
I love how you dried off your dog! You're a good dad! The way your set up your tent was brilliant! Thanks for sharing with us!
You are definitely not so cold-hearted a man like here in Italy Swedish are told to be.....I'm joking Matti but I really appreciate your feelings and comments on people that have not a daily meal for granted. Will meet you one day or another. And thanks indeed for your honest videos. Best regards.
I really think that lots of people in the north have a very warm heart. They always help each other and take care of other humans/animals. It's very socialistic politics up here. People vote for the parties who promise to help people who need help. It's not so much about what I can gain all the time.
...so I think people have warm heart.
😀

Only tourist hang things from the outside of their backpack is my favourite line from this whole video 😂
Great video. Glad you put this tent to the test. Rain or not camping in a tent is the best. Thanks for sharing!
Great video, thank you
Thanks for your review! Love the dog!!
Lovely video , Annie looks so relaxed
Thanks!
Yes... When a border collie get some activity, they become relaxed. 😀 /Matti
Good informative video again matti.Thanks👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks! I try to share my experience as much as possible. 😀
/Matti
This is brilliant presentation bud, overall video quality is simply superb! Bravo 🔥
Thanks!
It's nice that you like it. 😀
/Matti
I love your attitude
Hahahaaa... Thanks! Everybody does not like my attitude... 😉
...but I'm happy that you di that! 😀
/Matti
i recently started to look out for tends, its really ez to find tent reviews. but its hard to find good tent rewiews :D i think this is more one of the good ones
Thanks. Check out our channel and you will find a lot of tent reviews.
/Matti
Nice video. I own the same tent and did yesterday a raintest 🙂For ventilation in the top of the tent, you can pull the upper zippers a little bit down. The outside flap protects against the rain.
Great review, the American reviews are always in the warm and dry. I'm looking at both of these tents for bike packing and eagerly waiting the comparison video of the two 👍
First time to watch your channel and really enjoyed your style. Subscribed. I am new to backpacking and researching tents for my son and I. Looking for lightweight, but space and safety in the elements is worth an extra pound or so in weight. Currently looking at 3 person Tiger Wall, Salt Creek and Copper Spur. Thank you for the thorough review.
"I do not need yoga - I go camping..." .... hilarious
Hahaaaa... sometimes I'm impressed also över the bright things that popping out of my mouth. Luckily I can cut away a lot of the shit when I'm edeting the videos... 😉
/Matti
I agree, good quote
It can be good slogan for tshirt :)
Love it!
Nobody needs yoga.
Thanks 😊 That was fun to watch. Did hang some stuff on my panniers while biking and wild camping for a month in Sweden. Will not do that again 🫣😄
😂
Great looking Border collie... I had two. Mixed with Australian Shepherd... One lived 17 years and 3 months...
17...that's a lot!!!
😀
That kind of mix is maybe really good. 😀
/Matti
The dog had a good time!
Dog mostly have a good time when they are out camping like this!
:-)

I have the Copper Spur 2. Fantastic tent ⛺️
Yes… Coper Spur is maybe better than this one. We got one Coper spur HV1. It’s really lovely tent!!!
Tack för en bra video!! Ja ne vi har inte mycket att gnälla på vi som lever här. Mat och tid att ha hobbys, vilken lyx!!! Vi har allt❤ tältet såg fint ut🤩 härligt med lätta prylar🔥 ha de gött!!
Vi ska inte gnälla på att vi har det dåligt... däremot kan man gnälla för att vissa politiker tycker att det är okej att klasskillnader tycks öka i Sverige... 😞 /Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA tur att lycka aldrig kan mätas i pengar♥️
I too enjoyed the smell of summer in the air last week. Personally, I would have stayed in the tent until 🌞
...but I couldn't stay. I had to go home and edit this video. 😀
/Matti
16:40 I (wild)camped a lot while hiking, biking and mostly canoeing. After waking up, having a cup of instant coffee whit a drop of milk (or whitener) in my old yelow tupperware mug my day started bright even it was raining.
Yes... some coffee or tea, and then it's cosy also when it's raining!
😀
/Matti
Lovely video, thank you for this! Where I live, when I go for an hour walk, I am still surrounded by traffic, industry, planes, other people. Not to forget: wild camping is not allowed in The Netherlands 😢 But therefore we go on vacation to Sweden, love it there!
It's sad that everyone doesn't have a forest, just 20 min of walking from home... 😞 /Matti
Is also love Sweden for this! /From a swed
Thank you for posting this video. At 16:19 you mention that your sleeping bag got a little wet ("moisturey"). Was that because of splashback (water hitting the ground and bouncing inside the tent due to the rainfly not reaching the ground) or just humid air?
Much fun Matti. I always like to make a couple trial runs especially with new gear. You never know until you try it out how you and it will perform. Annie is sweet. I have Ella's Rose, a Minnie Aussie. She stays well ahead too. Ready to run all day. What you said is very true about our status in this world. For 95 percent of it we are kings. We need to think of that everyday. My best has traveled by motorcycle 2 and 1/2 times around the world. She has seen and presented a lot of much less fortunate people on the planet. When you walk 22km to get a pot of water in 120 to 140 F degree heat everyday you are up against it badly. The children need something to eat and that's the only way. Many would just lay down and pass. Others accept it as they know nothing different from day one. We are very fortunate. She is currently on the Frontline doing what she can to help save her country from invaders. Hoping and praying for someday when the bombs and muscles quit and she can get back on her motorcycle and continue her journey. Anna Greschiskina. I Have A Dream Travels. See you. Take care. Get the canoes ready
Yes... it's totally crazy that some people can't just jump up on their motorbike and do what they love. They have to defend their country from invaders... 😞
...and probably the people dosn't want this war... it's just a question about leaders and what they want.
😞
Best regards
/Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA They are getting a taste of it now and certainly don't like it. The propaganda story doesn't fly when the bombs land. I hope for the best for my friends an the neighbors. Hard to give up a few years and maybe your life. She does what she can for the soldiers and children. It has changered her so much.
Fin film, igen. Hur skyddar du din utrustning (liggunderlag, sovsäck) från en våt hund och klorna? Vi skulle gärna vandra med våra hundar men funderar lite över den frågan.
At least its myggfritt!
Yes... some dies from a raindrop in the head and other have frozen to death. 😉 /Matti
My daughter and I also went camping last night, 1,6 km from our home in Holmträsk, Piteå, with our Big Agnes Flycreek 3 tent and our Norrbottenspets 😊 Also curious about the 2p tent for solo trips with a dog, so thanks for the interesting review! Do you know the exact weight with poles, pegs etc.? /Margit
Hej Margit! Nice eith a mother and daughter trip. I think the tents total weight is only 992 grams. You find all info about it here: backpackinglight.se/varumarken/big-agnes/big-agnes-tiger-wall-ul2?affiliate=12367
/Stina
10:44; I was afraid you were going to do something else in addition to just brushing your teeth.
As always, I thoroughly enjoyed ever second of this videos footage.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.
Hahahaaa... I edit away some part of the material that's not good for youtube! 😉
Thanks for watching Bill!
I still use the firestarter that you sent to us. I don't use it in all videos, but I really like it! Thanks!!! /Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA The FireSteel I sent you will work, no matter what. Question is will you have or be able to make Tinder.
Härlig film. Snart dags göra kajakbesök där uppe vid er 😊 jag har Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 Solution Dye och är mycket nöjd med det, enda jag har att klaga på är att det är så ljust i det. Vill gärna ha mörkare I tältet då vi har vår midnattssol som lyser upp om nätterna och det kan vara svårt att sova då
Ja just det... Det blir ju som att sova i en glödlampa! 😀
Jag tänkte bara på fördelen att det vita tältet kanske inte blir lika tokvarmt om solen ligger på.
/Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA ja varmt tyckte jag ändå det blev, men kanske inte riktigt lika mycket som ett mörkare. För och nackdelar 😀
/ Elisabeth
@@naturlivinorrkan rekommendera en sovmask, funkar bra och lätt att ta med sig
did you check out the waterproof backpack by ORTLIEB, Model "Atrack 45 l"?
I have only checked it at Internet. It looks good. 😀 /Matti
But the most important part at 06:00 was skipped! How to connect the inside when the flyer is up? And how to stake tge corner correctly with just one stake?
Thats correct. I think my camera failed or something so I didn't get that clip. Maybe I can try to show it in a later video next summer.
/Matti
I don’t see the link of the Sweden guy
What Sweden guy?
How big are the kennels that you have your dogs in? I want to use kennels instead of chains for my sled dogs, but not sure how big I should make the kennels.
I'm just editing a video about our kennels and it’s set up 😉. The plan i to publish it on Sunday. Stay tuned! /Stina
Nice video! Also Im not sure cooking inside the tent is a good idea, would appreciate your opinion as a gude. Ive seen news about 2 man died in tent in high altitude and its believed due to carbon monoxide,,,
We will all die one day! ;-)
No, thats really true. Cooking inside is not really good in all conditions. I have done it during my whole life. I always keep all ventilation open! Thats super important!!!
The Big Agnes Tiger wall is really ventilated all around the tent. I was never worried about this tent! Big gap between the flyer and the ground.
But maybe I should make a video about this...
/ Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA Thanks Matti, Sure we all die, but I think the life is a gift (scientists still trying hard to find it in whole universe :)) and should not be wasted by some stupid mistakes that could be avoided, still so many places to visit ang great moments to experience. Cheers Ed
Vilket tält skulle du välja mellan tiger Wall och copper spur?
Copper spur probably… I can make a comparison video during the next summer.
If the weight is super important I probably would choose Tigerwall…
/Matti
/Matti
@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA jag vill gärna ha ett så lätt vandringstält i lågland som möjligt. Har hört att tiger Wall blåser in mycket under yttertältet och vad tänker du om slittåligheten jämfört med copper? Tack för att du tar dig tid, vill gärna köpa ett nytt tält för våren. Har nyss hittat till er kanal, är härliga filmer ni har. 👍
hey.. how are you doing?
I'm still alive so... I think it's really good... but I'm lacking some hours every day if should be able to do all the things I want to do... 😀 /Matti
