    must admit red Unna looks fantastic in sun rise/set. I'm using 10mm poles from Staika. Unna 10mm pole, does everything what Staika (my first H.) does for me single camping. I want to use Staika but always take UNNA as it's less weight and just 2 poles, fast to pitch, small ground sheet takes less space.

    A nice relaxing camp and video 👍. A real bummer the pole got bent. The 10mm poles seem like a great upgrade given the shape of the Unna and it’s large unsupported panels on the sides. All the best!

    Nice 😊. Good you didn’t stay ‘committed’ to your plan A and improvised to plan B. Would have been interesting to see how the solomid would have faired up there, think it would have been ok?
    From your description I think what you saw was a Stoat. It could also have been a Weasel? The long tail with a black tip is the main difference. Always nice to see wildlife 😊ATB.

    • @thegeordiewildcamper

      possibly the pyramid shape is great for shifting wind - the poly is probably a bit more rigid as well in the wind. No doubt itll get a good test in winter..

    Hey mate. Great video. Love the look of the unna. I have a Jannu and thinking of a lighter smaller shelter also. What sort of wind (mph) did you measure at the first location? You mentioned 30 km/hr or was that mph? Cheers. Gary

    • @thegeordiewildcamper
      @thegeordiewildcamper  10 місяців тому

      Thanks mate, yeah I reckon we were looking at a steady 25/30kmph wind with gusts of 35kmph..it would have held no issue but would have been an uncomfortable night 🤣

    Nice camp and nice views. Shame about the bent poles. Noticed a slight bend in my Snugpak Scorpion pole. Reckon I’ve guyed it too tight as haven’t been in any massive winds.
