    No, you didn't cheat. I envy you. I live in the southeastern USA, and when we head into the woods, there is nothing but woods ahead of us. No stops at a pub or anything of the like. We've even talked about such a thing... wouldn't it be great to hike a long day and then come upon a bar or tavern to drink a brew and talk about what we saw across our day. Not here...just woods and more woods. We have to take the tavern with us. We would not hesitate to take a side trip to a place to get a good draw. You didn't cheat. You host one of the best hiking channels on UA-cam. Keep up the great videos. All my respect.

    Wouldn't call it cheating I'd call it exploring.
    I lost my mate of 30 years in November. He was my hiking and camping buddy. We drifted apart the past few years. Family life, work...etc. Nice to catch up with old mates. Hoping to get out on my first wild camp next weekend.

    To be honest Dan, I started watching your channel because I thought, here's a down to earth honest lad, has a laugh, don't take himself too seriously but is straight forward and honest. You don't use mega-expensive gear, you show your area and proud to be a Yorkshire lad, that's reet too Dan. Plus you've a good heart but don't blow your trumpet. Thee does for me lad. I've got to admit I wasn't into the ration pack thing others might be so I'm going to spoil their enjoyment by making snide comments. Each to their own. Thanks for the effort all you lads put into your videos.

    If you are in a tent then you are camping, not & never cheating.
    Ignore the trolls who are just cowardly keyboard warriors hiding behind the internet waiting for reactions.
    You all produce completely different styles of videos, and that's exactly why I keep watching you all.
    Personally, I'm never fussed on any of the "buddy" videos, but that's for everyone.
    Keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍

    No, not cheating. Camping is not a game. Do what you want, and don't worry about what other people think. But you do need to use a map and a compass. And if you forget something, don't say nothing. It's not lying, it's just not telling the whole truth. Your a great guy. Plan ahead and do your best. Make check lists, and go over them 2 or 3 times. Love what your doing on here. Just have fun, but be smart. Make plans if things go bad. Cheers to you, Dan and Scott. You got this.

    Some stunning scenery and the Lynx EV 1 looked great pitched in it. No such thing as cheating with regards to wild camping in my opinion. Just getting outside for a night is an experience, doesn't matter if you've hiked a mountain or simply pitched in a nearby field.
    Just get outside, make memories and enjoy.

    Good morning Dan . There is no such thing as cheating, you do what you do. Your getting out and having fun and that is all that matters. I've been watching your videos for a very long time and I always appreciated the fact that you were real. There isn't a person anywhere that never makes a mistake. As for people giving you grief, well some people have nothing better to do than try to tear someone else down to make themselves feel better. My personal opinion I think you worry way too much about what your audience wants. People will like you or not no matter what you do so do the videos how you want to and as long as you enjoy making it , that is all you should care about. Be yourself and piss on anyone that don't like it.

    No cheating fella and another great video and some fantastic scenery. The gear you use is fantastic and right up my street for my wallet as I don't have lots of cash spare but I do have OEX fathom bag,eurohike sleeping mat and old vango tent. I am not sure if I am better using my mi in stove that screws onto gas canister or OEx jetboil equivalent or the stove that's free standing with a pipe to the gas, those seem more secure with less chance of toppling over. What is your advise Dan. Keep up the good work pal
