    😂 cool video mate……
    “Outdoor disco Dave” has a nice ring to it!

      Hi Greg, Disco Dave does has a ring but actually it’s more Pop. Pop Muzik by M was big in my day around the late 1970s. It still gets me bopping 😀

      Thanks Abel, we have a few redeeming features in middle earth, not like them incredible mountains you have though in Mordor 🏔

    Very rustic! That's a very robust looking stove btw. Great video Mr Dave.

      Hey Josh, yeah, I thought you'd like that stove, thanks for stopping by again. Do you stay at backcountry huts yourself much?

      @@OutdoorsmanDave I do indeed, fairly often. I probably had 200 videos of trips similar to your's, but I removed most of them, as the video and audio quality was poor, or they had copyrighted content (from back before YT started enforcing this stuff). The nice thing is that I have a huge content library to pull from, and can make short videos quickly / easily using that material.

    I was there 12 years ago and yesterday. Going up from the 'junction' on the N/S track a bearing of 320* will get you up a vague track to the hut. Coming back down there are plenty of markers, usually jam jar lids.

    • @OutdoorsmanDave
      @OutdoorsmanDave  2 місяці тому

      It’s still there but you do need to ask permission, markers have been removed intentionally I suspect

      Truth is, I don’t eat a lot during the day on hikes, so a big carbs breakfast sustains me.
