    Bivvy camping is so freeing and freezing!
    A bitterly cold night at -8 degrees Celsius on the summit of Hart Crag 822m. A fantastic sunset taken in with a fantastic dog.
    Enjoy the great outdoors
    All love
    Al and Blue

    I've watched several of these videos, but this is my favourite so far. The sequence from 19 mins in just beautifully expresses the magic of the mountains. I find the videos so inspiring too. I don't like camping in anything below -2C so I won't be doing anything like this soon, but the philosophy of testing and pushing your limits and seeing how you and your gear cope in tough conditions is very inspiring. I've been doing this recently on local hills (I have a lot of hillwalking and navigation experience) but I don't think me or my gear are ready for overnight bivvies in the minuses yet! But I am taking note of that bivvy set-up, maybe for doing the Mullardochs in summer, or even early spring, before the midgies arrive.

    • @BUSHMANandBLUE
      @BUSHMANandBLUE  3 роки тому +2

    Looks like a great adventure. - 8 C is a good temp for outside winter activity but windchill can make a big difference. I like -10 to - 15 C for XC skiing here in Canada. The wind is not much of a factor in the bush but on an exposed hilltop like yourself, it can be quite dangerous.

    Amazing your dog Blue! I have seen only 3 or 4 of your vids do far. I have to admit I have felt sorry for him that he might not be as into this as you. But at 5:45 or so I couldn't stop laughing that he was looking at the view then turned to look at you like "oh, so you made it". What a pair you guys!!

    Frozen shoes/boots: I typically keep me boots in my sleeping bag, each in a plastic bag (dirt) and they never get frozen. Or you can put them in your sleeping bag in the morning. Also I always keep my water filter in my sleeping bag so that it never gets frozen.

    Tarps are for wimps. 😉
    The video was really enjoyable to watch, especially the antics of Blue in the snow. 😂
    There's no way I'd have gone up there in those trainers. I always go up the mountains in my old Scarpa Manta (non-Goretex version) boots, all season. I would have put the shoes/boots inside the bivvy bag and the socks inside the sleeping bag to prevent them icing up.
    I've had good experiences with The North Face gear, for example my Summit Arctic down jacket that has been fantastic for the past decades of hard use. But that North Face bivvy bag... I'd have dumped it in the car park bin before driving home...together with the tarp. 😉
