Was great to meet you @PaulMessner - a true gentleman. If you're somehow not familiar with Paul, please go an visit his channel: www.youtube.com/@PaulMessner . His video for the same night can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/-N0AfXM67CU/v-deo.html
Thanks kindly for watching and for your comment - if you wouldn’t mind sending us some of your Australian weather as well that’d be much appreciated! 😁
Loving the video's mate. I have spent most of my life hiking and spending time in the great outdoors but only recently fancied a go at wildcamping. I have got my gear together and have some time off in a couple of weeks for a night away. Was planning a great adventure to the top of a mountain in the Lake District but having watched your videos I think a campsite that gives a wilder experience like this one would be a good idea to do a first solo camp and to test all my equipment properly ! Thanks for the inspiration and keep it up !
Thanks Neil, really glad you’re enjoying. Candy Corner Bushcraft is where I went, near Doncaster, can recommend it. You’ll have a blast wherever you go. Enjoy and let us know how you get on!
I came from Paul Messner's channel, I thought I would give you a sub and quick watch for the hell of it, but found you very down to earth and relateable. The "sweating my tits off!" comment made me watch until the end. Camping is not glamorous but, mostly, enjoyable and you showed that very well. I will keep watching if this is your style of video Chris...
Hi Chris great content mate. You seem like a fellow gentle giant. I've got the lanshan 2 pro and am still let to get the ridgeline without the dip. Its a fantastic tent tho even at 6ft7.
Hey Robin, thanks for watching. I’m well impressed with it, and great to hear someone even taller than me can still fit comfortably! Nice not have to sleep diagonally for once, that’s for sure.
@@chrismoutdoors I'll second that, nothing worse than being crampt. I fill mine with the Big A rapide tent floor pad. Love a roll around while I sleep. Next challenge is finding some hiking/ bushcraft apparel to wear. Any suggestions?
I thought your face and dulcet tones was familiar when watching the Paul Messner video long time no see Chris i did not know you was in to the bush craft scene
look at the lanshan 2 monds there is a guy that has some really good mods for it and makes its realy tought :) its a great tent to use ive used mine at beehive bushcraft in ashby area few weeks ago was good, although if in peaks where its peaty ground good luck its a a pain to put up ha! but good content so far dude :)
I shall check out some of the mods, I think with a bit of tweaking it’ll be great. Thanks very much for watching and for your comment, it’s much appreciated.
@chrismoutdoors I have the exact tent btw 😉 I would say if u can get walk poles that are broke and use the ends as a lift up for the side panels to loft it for more space inside :)
I love my lanshan 2. I’ve had it 3 years now and it’s still going strong. It’s not too hard to get back in the stuff sack. Lay it flat, put the peaks into the center and smooth, then fold in half long ways and again. Then roll tight. I get about half into the sack nicely rolled and the rest ends up sliding in (almost a stuff). Packs small enough that I can keep it in a water bottle pocket.
I wouldn't worry about the exact pole height too much. It's got a fairly large range. Short if you want to make it more windproof, long if you want to increase ventilation. I've had mine set at 130+ before now in the warmer weather, 110 in winter. 👍🏼🏕

Subbed from Paul M. Well over 500 now I see!
As a constructive hint, I'd tidy up your editing. 37 minutes might be a bit much yet. Start small, folks have short attention spans : )
Thanks Scotty, appreciate the sub and the feedback. I’m sure there is potential for more aggressive cutting of footage.
"Can't be assed" 😂😂
I thought your face and dulcet tones was familiar when watching the Paul Messner video long time no see Chris i did not know you was in to the bush craft scene
Hi mate - yep, afraid my face is frequenting the hobby these days.
Really enjoyed the video and it's great to see someone on UA-cam who uses one of my favourite phrases: "Can't be ar$ed"
Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching! And it’s a good saying a lot of the time!

It’s a hard life eh? Thanks for watching!
What have you done to the boss of the show? (Finn)
Another nice video. Great job
Gaffer had the day off for this one, sent me out on my own!
Thanks for watching and for commenting, glad you enjoyed :)
Who was that man with Chris? 😅😂
A mysterious man of the woods! 😆
I came from @paulmessner video
Thanks for coming by, hope you enjoy and I appreciate the comment.

That's great to know, thank you. I'll have to do some experimentation with it. Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
