Great to see you back out there, Jiffy. A very moving film and jarred some thoughts of friends and family that are no longer here. Glad to see you in the ‘Soulo killer’ aka Nallo 2. Far more space for the same weight, with a more useable vestibule and more than strong enough - can also be double poled of course. It’s the one to have if you’re not bothered about the free standing aspect of the Soulo.
Thank you. Loads of space in the Nallo and a much bigger vestibule than the Soulo. I’ve seen some films with strong winds (including Hilleberg’s film) hitting it and no problems at all. I had some fairly strong gusts in the night and had no issues at all. Best wishes, Jiffy 👍
Beautiful video. I m Hilleberg lover too. I have several tents but 2 are my favorite. Nallo 2 and Nammatj 2GT...Keep up the great work.
Thank you 👍🏻
A mountain that hold special memories Jiffy , good to see the T shirt hack still in use 👍 cracking camp with loads of room in the big tent , the quilt looked good I’ve used mine loads and are great for a spinner 😂atb Dave ⛺️👍
Cheers Dave. The old t shirt trick works a treat mate. I was surprised with the quilt and expected to have to wear my warm clothing. ATB Jiffy 👍🏻
I will be following your excellent example of securing a pillow to the mattress from now on.
There is an aluminum windscreen that surrounds the stove that is missing. I love that circle of blue flame surrounded by the red hot stove.
Idahoan (Idaho is between Washington & Montana in the Northwest part of America) Mashed Potatoes - when I'm blindfolded, I'm unable to determine any difference in taste from real mashed potatoes.
V-e-r-y touching tribute to your two friends.
Warm Regards from far away Reno, Nevada, U.S.A.
Thank you. The stove didn’t come with a wind shield, just a reflective base. The Nallo’s door can be configured to form a wind shield though so I didn’t need one on this camp. Those Mashed potatoes are spot on. Regards from Wales 👍
@@WildCampingWelshmanAll Idaho car license plates brag in big, bold print "Famous Potatoes", bottom center on all plates. Yes, Potatoes are THE major export crop grown in Idaho.
So great to see you again!! Thank you so much for sharing this video!! :)
Thank you 👍🏻
Great video...I have to be honest I prefer winter camping....
Its more of a challenge and more therapeutic.
I bet its gets you back in touch with your past experiences.
I've got the Nallo 2 also.
Its my go to for the harsh winters
Thank you 👍🏻
I had to click w/ that title!
My 8 year old said I should try a clickbait title for a change 😂
@@WildCampingWelshmanHaha, it worked! Great video worth being baited to, by the way.
hmmmm.... apart from all serious comments made, which I totally agree on, I wanna just say "yummy".... lovely.. 😊
Thank you 👍
My sympathy for your loss. For your two loved ones. I have found that phrase has helped me. Thx for the benefit of being reminded while doing this wonderful wild places activity we love. JMO.
Thank you. Best wishes, Jiffy 👍🏻
I can't tell you where i lost mine....i might get into trouble.
😂😂😂😂👍🏻
WOW!! Am really like this i love the Start honestly yeah snow AGAIN woo Must be a journey🗺️ but i love it ❤
Thanks Bubs! ❤️❤️❤️. We will be out together again soon! Love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You always come across as loyal and compassionate friend,family man and there's 100% nothing wrong with that. Folk like yourself look out for others😊. Best wishes ! Great stuff mate.
Thank you 👍🏻
Great video mate. Such a shame for your friends but lovely you have a place where you can remember them and reflect and there aren’t too many better locations. The tent looks great mate … spot on. Food not so bad either 👍🏼 great vid as always mate . Take it easy. Craig
Thank you Craig. It was pretty nippy up there but as stunning as always 👍🏻
I'd have put the mash on top of bean sausage job done, i like the way u took ur time erecting the tent sound struture done once
@@garyvause2475 I mix the beans in with the mash. It’s always worth taking time to pitch the tent properly because you never know what the weather will be like throughout the night. There was some strong wind gusts in the early hours. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment 👍🏻
Hi do yourself a favour get a footprint fr the tent and plumbers soldering mat fr B&Q fr ur stove ive got both brilliant
I’ve got a soldering mat but didn’t need it for this camp. I don’t use footprints anymore, no need. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. ATB Jiffy 👍
Good to see you back Jiffy. Also good to watch a tent being properly pitched as opposed to the speeded up Benny Hill ones which seem to be popular.
Thanks mate. It was great to get back out and the snow was a bonus. I did think about the Benny Hill version but thought I’d show most of the bits to give a realistic view. I hope you’re well, all the very best 👍🏻
Nice to see you again. Beautiful job putting this together. Gorgeous countryside. ! ! !
Thank you 👍
My favourite park up and camp area, try to change things up, but it's something special, your friends are still with in spirit, just because you can't see them doesn't mean there not there, nice to see you back out good video happy camping namaste
Thank you. I will always remember them, especially when I’m here. ATB Jiffy 👍🏻
keep going....
Just stunning Jiffy mate. And very touching, the story of the personal significance of the area. Beautifully filmed. Heads up on the mash much appreciated - I'm fussy with mash!
How are you getting on with that topsy-turvy inside out Paramo system? I must admit, I'm intrigued! The smock really looks the business. Not cheap though eh?
Cheers Rich. You obviously watched the whole film and not just those lads
going nuts! 😂.
It works very well mate. Very much like my old Army “softie jacket”. Not cheap but easier to implement and works better than having to remove and then layer up. Highly recommended. I’ve worn Paramo for years in the colder months but not tried the reverse psychology of an over jacket. It definitely works. It doesn’t pack down as much as a down jacket but I don’t have any worries of it not working if it gets wet. I actually packed it in the stretch pouch on the front of my pack as an “easy grab”. It worked a treat 👍🏻.
My gloves, on the other hand (excuse the pun) were not up to the task (montane prism). I should have brought mittens instead so that they would have been easier to slip on and off AND much warmer.
The cooker was fantastic, Soto Stormbreaker. Runs on petrol and doesn’t use much fuel at all. It’ll save me a fortune in gas canisters.
Great to hear from you Rich and thank you for your comment.
Best wishes 👍🏻
@@WildCampingWelshman No, thank you for a top (and substantial) midweek wilderness watch Jiffy. And I agree on the Montane Prisms - they've let me down before now too, in similar temps in The Black Mountains.
Other than that, it's great to see you so 'dialled in' with your kit sir! And out enjoying your homeland.
Take care mate. Rich. 👍🏻
@@CottonBud Cheers mate. Having paid for everything ourselves gives us the freedom of an honest opinion / review 👍🏻
@@WildCampingWelshman This is true. Are we the only 2 saps left ? 😅. I wouldn't have it any other way mate.
@@CottonBud nor me Rich. I feel liberated knowing that I can give an honest opinion on something.
I regularly get emails offering free stuff (never bloody Hilleberg though 🙄) but don’t want to be pressured into having to sound positive if the stuff lets you down.
The new Flextail pump is a classic example. It’s no where near as good as their pump with a light.
And,so happy you had a cracking overnight camp 🫵👏👍🏼😊😊
Respect. 🏴✊.Genuine question,why pitch on snow & not clear area ? First.
Thank you.
I’m pretty sure that the spot behind me was a pitch from the night or two before and I didn’t want to sleep in a “hot” bed.
No need to clear the snow, only the pegging spots. Plus it keeps the groundsheet cleaner 👍🏻
Great video!! Great kit good tent best there is. ❤🫡
