I’m gonna stick my neck out and say this is the best bivi camping video I’ve seen on UA-cam. This camp looked perfection. I’m extremely envious. Thanks for sharing mate.
Respect Paul for commenting another content creators video as I totally understand that must be hard when keeping on top of your own incredibly successful channel. ATB Tom
@@TOMHEANEY100 cheers Tom. Got to give credit where it’s due. I still watch plenty of UA-cam as for me it’s replaced regular TV. I also learn a great deal too.
There’s just something about your videos that captures a lovely balance of great cinematography, sound, music, location and weather. You certainly landed lucky with the late snow and clear morning, stunning. I love Great Hill, Belmont and Winter Hill, my local places too which made this one all the more special. Thanks again!
Insane weather that for April 😱.... can’t see me in a Bivi though mate... everything like getting changed, keeping you bag & boots dry , having a pee 🤣.... all looks to restricted for me, I was curious but you’ve made my mind up😂... I’ll be sticking to my Lanshan & cloudpeak.. both palatial 😂👍🏻. Great film & what a morning!! Wow!🌞🌞
I was thinking to myself why would you want to put yourself through that ,sleeping in a bag essentially in the snow , but then when you wake up to a landscape like that it must make it all worthwhile . Lovely video again thanks for your time and effort .
The best experiences in life often don’t come without a bit of effort, and sometimes even a bit of suffering. So glad you enjoyed it Wendy, and appreciate your comments 😎👍
Great video. You lucky sod to have that transformation in weather. First time I’ve come across you but looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Stunning camp Dave , yes i agree a winter camp .. Hardcore in the bivi , I normally use mine in me single skin shelter to stop condensation dripping on my down bag lol . atb Dave
This looks like one of those days when you just want to keep wandering and not go back inside... I'm Norwegian and I absolutely love those crisp, clear and cold winter days! Even in April 😊. I truly enjoyed this video, so beautiful.
One word.....Respect.....Bivvy'ing in "winter" ! Looking back would you do it again or take a tent. I bought(yet to use it) the Snugpak Ionasphere, a compromise between a bivvy and a tent.
This is my stomping ground buddy. What a camp it looked awesome. It can get a bit crazy up great hill and had many brews in that stone cross out the elements.
Great video. Awesome to know you don’t have to be in places like the lakes to get out. This is very local to me and I will be for sure planning something!
Stunning, I once walked from Rivington Pike did 20 miles with my ex girlfriend (who apperently knew where she was going) after 2 pubs stops, ending up thigh deep in a bog we had to camp in a farmers field because we spent too long in the pubs and it was 11 at night in December so farmers field in Horwich it was🤣🤣.we passed through great hill on the way. the West pennine moors certainly have some charm and alot of Bogs! Great upload as per usual.
No worries Dave you are definitely getting well back up to speed, this is a fantastic video. I like the way you are just 'grabbing the bull by the horns' with this bivi camping, sussing it out as you go and also sharing with us at the same time. Brilliant, good on you and many thanks
I stealth Bivy sometimes, but not in a bright orange bivy, lol. I use an MSS, crazy warm, low IR signature, and it's CAMOUFLAGED. Sometimes I'll set up a 7X7 camo tarp too, to protect my pack, in case it rains.
What a tremendous sunrise to wake up to! For me bivis have a sense of integration into the landscape that's hard to top. Takes me back to my 90s mountaineering days ( we used double plastic boots : slept wearing the inners with the outers propping up the head-end of the bivi bag to reduce the discomfort of frozen boot mornings ). Lovely country around Great Hill & Anglezarke. Loved the cinematic aspects of your video - inspirational stuff - subbed.
So good to see you out there and enjoying the great outdoors again! The bivvy life doesn't seem like an easy life on cold and wet nights, but I can see the appeal once it's warmer. Thanks for uploading 👍
Really looking forward to watching this. Love your videos. You put so much effort into your content. I hope more and more people find your channel. Take care 😊
I'm just working my way through your back catalogue here .. awesome campout I a bivvy bag . I've just bought the alpkit hulka XL ..bought the red one ..my bad . not used it yet as I'm scared cause it's winter now but soon as poss ..not as brave as yourself ..well done .. awesome work 🦸

Its great to see you back out but I think I'll stick to a tent
haha same!
Thank you !..
That's like waking up on the Hoth system.
I've just seen this. I agree with Mr Messner...it's a belting video. Thank you!
Brave man, bivvy in those conditions. Tent for me.
This is what the bivvy was designed for
Another great vid. The quality of cinematography and audio is really excellent.
Stunning conditions for it. Much better to wake up to snow than the rain that was predicted.
Absolutely Kev 🥶👍😎

Thanks for posting. a local hill for me but ive never camped up there....as yet
Wow, that was a bit different, loved every minute of it, thank you. Just stunning
Last gasp of winter! Great scenery well captured. Yeah a hooped bivvi would be more comfortable. The snow transforms everything.
Awesome video, thanks

Great video Dave. That looked like an epic night out.
Amazing video and stunning views

I’ve just come back to this video Dave. It’s amazing. Agree with PM, best bivvy video I’ve seen. I love the music you use at the end 👍
Another cracking video Dave! All the best
Top Camp! that Bivvy looked snug! and what a beautiful morning :)

You did well to brave those conditions in a bivvy cracking spot though 👍👍
Another belting vid Dave, and what a sunrise in those awesome conditions 👌

Spare a thought for us girls!!! 🥶
@@nicolab2075 ha ha yep even trickier good point!!!!
Even for us 64 year olds up 3 times 🦵
@@Yorkshiremadmick it must increase 1 time per decade, in my 50's and i am 2per night.
Cracking camp, definitely counts as a winter one!
Stunning camp Dave , yes i agree a winter camp .. Hardcore in the bivi , I normally use mine in me single skin shelter to stop condensation dripping on my down bag lol . atb Dave
My wife said, "Like a walk in heaven." That was very special to watch, thanks for sharing it with us.

What an adventure mate👏your best yet in my opinion 👍
Brilliant mate, great little adventure, happy to be back out!!

Thank you Anett 🙏🏻
Great video, I also like those Lindor bars, there is a new one 'Salted Caramel' ideal treat for camping out on the roof of England.
😋😎👍
awesome show thanks
Good bivi video really enjoyed it. Lovely sun set filming. I think I will stick to a tent for my adventures in the outdoors especially in winter.
No signs of rustiness in my opinion! Another cracking video. Thanks for sharing, Dave
Worth it for that sunset I would say ..
That was awesome, beautiful location too

Just found this channel. Brilliant.
Really nice video.Enjoyed it very much.Thank you.
Big thanks Eventyrsoren 🙏🏻
Really enjoyed this, thanks for taking the time to do it. Never looked at my one man tent as being luxurious before but now ive seen this!
One word.....Respect.....Bivvy'ing in "winter" !
Looking back would you do it again or take a tent.
I bought(yet to use it) the Snugpak Ionasphere, a compromise between a bivvy and a tent.
Great to see you back out and about Dave ,missed your adventures during lockdown, stay safe Jim

Superb video !!!
This was absolutely awsome
This is a great little video, perfect timing for the weather, but hot food and drink is absoluteiy essential in
these conditions.
Cheers Jim. Glad you enjoyed it 😎👍. ATB - Dave
