Cheers Alan and congratulations on having a brand new and roomy tent! As you say there is a trade-off between price, quality and weight when choosing a tent. I guess the most important question is: How extreme will weather realistically be when I go tenting? I know a lot of fair-weather campers with Hilleberg tents and they have gone down the wrong lane! As for cooking I think you can do very well without freeze-dried food on short trips, so the imagination is the limit here. If you want a challenge you can try to make brownies on your next trip - it is actually quite easy when you figure out to cook them and you will be an instant winner on a mountain date! So looking forward to your next adventure and cooking in the wild:) Ant,
I love the brownie idea mate, totally agree with youre explanation of choosing a tent, I think people buy hilleberg just because they hear its the best, but realistically unless you're in heavy snow or high winds a decent 3 season tent will do I love to have the different options to suit the conditions ill be in, as always thanks for watching matey
Action-packed! Awesome drone shots! The music was on point, great edit, and the tent was so spacious! It's an epic spot to wake up to. Food looks good!
Hi Alan, lovely drone footage over the loch. A nice spot to camp for the night, toasties looked yummy Beautiful views. Tent looked good. thank you for sharing x Julie and Tony x
Hello Allan i should say youa are well equipped looks like you will get hungry on your solo camp the views are stunning and amazing when you wake up the scene around are indeed marvelous enjoy and have a great day
Great drone footage over the Loch and yep, a real beast of a tent and it fights back too! Not the lightest of tents but for a 2 man tent it was always going to be heavy, too much for me but a walk in the park for you! Canny price and a pitch in one tent is always a winner for me, especially with the summer we have been having. Not had a toasty for years, unsure why as I love them and that has to be the best one I have ever seen, it looked amazing and hope it tasted as good as it looked. I hate a bloody curry (sorry :o) and I remember watching one guy cook a full Christmas Day dinner out in the woods and it looked amazing too, all the trimmings too, so just to be awkward, that's what I would like to see😁. Nice morning (I wondered where the sun had been hiding), so I sent you a rainbow and some of the rain we have been getting here for weeks one end😂. Yep I did make it that far and another great camp, cheers Alan
hahahaha nice one Al, I full xmas dinner ... ill have to work my way uptown that but im sure its doable, the weather has been shocking mate hasnt it, the summer started off with so. much promise and then .... well its just rained. hope youre good mate and you and the mrs had a good stay in. Keswick, speak soon Alan
Beautiful camp site and fantastic views from above. The food looked great. Always love a good steak Alan. Love it bloody, but not with yours! 🤣🤣There's better ideas for knife cleaning. 😁😁 It does look like a great tent. Loved the camping adventure!
hey guys, hope you and Kathy are both well, ill be honest it almost seem a waste to put a fillet steak into a toasty. I normally go medium ... id only just sharpened the knife to and didnt even feel it slice my finger lol as always thanks for watching
cheers Yas, yeah really happy with the tent, another one to add to the collection lol, it was a spur of the moment camp after the midge attack in glancoe..
Hi Alan the chef. OMGoodness, your beard is longer and thick???.... I like the sky movement fast-forwarded as you build a tent. Wow, what did you do to yourself? 4:22 ouch... I see the airflow especially it is the best result against the gusty winds. Well designed. I like the extra storage, area separately from the bed area. Beers? haha What? Is it getting cold in the mountains in the UK? You are wearing a winter jacket. Beautiful Dave's flight! 8:02 Hahaha..did you go grocery shopping with full of yummy ingredients? 10:33 Alan the Chef, ahhhh cheese is on K7S sticker!!!! melted cheese.....Delicious 14:25 Did you say Philly cheese steak sandwich? May be you can fix Cuban sandwich with soup sometime.. Brrrr...it seems coooold. Just got home from Charleston, SC finishing up 3day-filming and also celebrating belated K7S BD. Hope you enjoy over 10mile kayaking with a little cute surprise when the vid is ready. I am glad to see you doing well. You must have a lot of sponsors showcasing many camp gear.. See you next time Apologies for my belated comment. I had family emergency and am coping with the loss of the family member.
Hey ms kayak, sorry to hear about the family loss, and sorry it’s taken s while to reply. I know right my beard is starting to get long lol The temperature sure had dropped especially at night Hope you’re both well, speak soon x
@@54DegreesNorth Thank YOU. Just need some time to heal. I am not only one deal with loss of love ones...just go out after adventures, haha Miss you xx
Mahoosive tent that... I've not carried a tent over 1.5kg for 20years, and doubt I could now!🤔 Looked a good spot to camp 👍... you carted a load of stuff in for the cooking as well, pack must have weighed a ton 😮 Thanks for sharing ATB Alistair 👍
it was a great little spot mate, I wasn't expecting too much from it to be honest. I cant see me carrying this tent up anything of any size lol, probably only get used a few times a year but its a great tent still cheers for watching matey and hope you are well
Hi Alan this place looked gorgeous but oooh watch those tent pegs, my friend tripped and fell on one when she was younger and had about 10 stiches 😳Your tent looked so big inside but ooo a bit pricey at £350 but I guess as a one off buy it would be worth it for the piece. Foid looked great and I love the competition with Gez and yes a curry sounds great😃👍~ Anna
cheers Anna, 10 stitches sound nasty, it is a lot of tent for the money, ill probably only use it a handful of times each year as its quite weighty, hope you and Alf are well xx
@@boyzinthewood1 get out my comments you stalker 😂😂😂😂 I was in a tiny tarn up a mountain lol give me some slack …. I actually didn’t show the footage but my first cast didn’t even make it to the water 😂😂
Catch cook and eat i reckon,now that would be fun.that drone shot move i liked,think i need to upgrade my mini.are you taking that tunnel tent to Sully? I'm taking mine but not sure if it will still leak
hiya mate, im gunna take a few tents and then make my decision on Saturday depending on conditions. ive got the mini 2 and thought about upgrading it but it gives me everything in need. cheers for watching mate and ill see you in a few days
Cant believe you took a whole loaf of bread 🤣 Yeah you're right, he who goes second definitely has an advantage. You know you're jealous of our dragons!! The Welsh have culture hahaha... £7 for that!!! Fook me Alan, my whole toasties didn't cost that much. I'll teach you the correct way to pronounce the French mustard when I see you later 😁Toastie looked immense mate, I'm hungry now. A curry sounds great mate but lets see what the audience says ✌👌👊 Enjoyed this one Al!!!
The audience 😂😂😂 think I’ve had two comments on the matter so far 😂 I was working away and that was the only sour dough bread I could get in the small town of Helensburgh lol Nice one for watching mate and I’ll see you in a few hours x

That toasties looks lush I'm going to try that in my ridgemonkey at my next rally
hahaha they were decent mate, I think text time id not bother with sour dough bread and put less mustard on, bloody tasty though
@54DegreesNorth yes would be just normal bread for me . We have a rally Sept 16th and a big one in November 5 days in forests .
@SilvoTours November 5th is my birthday 👍😂
@@54DegreesNorth early happy birthday .
That tent is a belter Al, looks very luxurious. I think you and Gez should do a fish dish next.....but you got to catch the fish tho 😉
ill take that mate, best fish I ever had was some cod I caught, within 3 hours in was on my plate
@@54DegreesNorth I've seen you fish... there was no fish 🤣
