Ultimate Views From Tarp and Bivy

- A wild camp using my Tarp and Bivy in the Cheviot Hills,
A pitch with my Ultimate Views was selected, I went to sleep and awoke to wonderful views and an inversion awaited in the morning, whilst my evening was full of deer activity,
Only drawback was my wife had to pick 7 small ticks off me this morning, all around my middle where my layers meet, she said this was not expected on her relaxing day watching the coronation !!!

Old mate you really epitomise what it is to venture out into the bush, set up a camp in a secluded place with commanding views of raw nature, not a human interference to be seen or heard, have a brew and to absorb serenity. This is a real beaut down to earth video with no pretentiousness, just a bloke in the bush appreciating nature and all its naturalness. 10 out of 10. Your missus should join you, it would have a magic affect on your relationship. Mate give ALL your gear a good spray dousing with Pyrethrin, including your clothes, it'll fix the ticks. The little buggers don't like it one bit. I've just found your site and subscribed. 👍👍👍
Hi and thanks for coming along, yes I just find a spot and enjoy it , unfortunately the missus can’t stand camping lol and I struggle to get the kids to enjoy it !!!!
As for the spray yes I have now tried it, but pricey at £10 a bottle and it just does the little tent, bivy and rucksack but it seems to work so definitely worth a monthly spray.
Glad you like the spots
Cheers
Done a fishing brolly and bivvy camp - fabulous! Felt like a slug as my Mountain Warehouse bivvy doesn't have a side zip, but working out how to use this is all part of the fun. I had no idea the thin bivvy material would be so warm! I did most of my night just in my sleeping bag, luckily it didn't rain. Rain is now a worry not a trip stopping disaster, as I got a Uni Gear 3x3 tarp and I am raring to go. I love these videos as you can kit being used, and so I definitely listen to what you have to say. Another simply beautiful spot, you have great taste for the panoramic.
Hi and thanks for watching, glad you are trying the bivy, a slug yes sounds right, when I use my other army or Alpkit bit, I too have to struggle in the reposition like a slug,
Cheers
Great pitch and location Adrian , I do like the tarp and bivvy camps ⛺️👍 atb Dave

Great spot there. The mist comes up the from the Till Basin and sloshes around the valley in slow motion. Can watch it from my house in the mornings.

Cheers
I think one of your best camps/ video Adrian. Love the quiet low key camps you do, the area, the view, the deer the mist and cloud- great stuff 👍
Hi Graham,thanks, I think it all fell into place on this one, it was amazing lying there, watching out over the rolling hills, deer all around, suppose that’s why I was covered in ticks, had to keep low as the shepherds were about lambing,
Tent on there next time if I can brave the ticks
Cheers till our next one Adrian
You hit the jackpot on this one Adrian 👌🌲👍thats exactly why we do it😊
Hi and thanks for watching, yes it was a magical bivy it all fell into place, views, inversion and deer !

Perfection, that.
Hi and thanks for watching, I caught it just right
Cheers
That was just breathtaking. That looked a great reset buddy, great video really enjoyed that just epic
Hi and thanks for watching, one of my favourite locations, must get some tick spray as it was just mad,
Cheers
@@northumberlandmountainhopper I know what you mean, we spend a lot of time in Weardale that's the same for bugs. But splendid video buddy, going to watch it again with my Mrs she will enjoy that one too 👍👍
Loved your videos mate you have changed my way of camping out for the night with my lovely dog look forward to your next one Ray from kent😊
Hi and thanks for coming along, are you a bivy and tarp convert ? Thinking what to do next as my favourite woods are close to midge season, thinking of a mesh tent for under the tarp,or just go higher for a few months
Cheers
@@northumberlandmountainhopper hello mate I've recently purchased a dpm bivvy bag and a mtp bivvy bag two new 3x3 tarps dd and kolinco very pleased with the quality and its all down to your videos look forward to your new videos! there all good! Have a great summer!! Ray from kent
@@raymonddennis3252 hi Ray, that’s great, honestly the bivy is the best, add a tarp and you can’t go wrong, did you see where I use a small magic carpet just for head cover, I now use a tarp s for that setup, two weekends off due to doing landscaping of drive 🙁but soon back out
Cheers
Nice one 😊👍
Hi and thanks for watching
Cheers
Brilliant love watching your channel great views love the simplicity of your camps tarp and bivvi you can’t beat it thank you
Hi and thanks for watching, yes I love the tarp and bivy just for the views , but seven ticks today ! May be the tent for a couple of camps 🙁unless I was just unlucky
Cheers
Ah, mate just came across this. You went with your hunch and it paid off big time. What a place to pitch your tarp and have a bivvy. Totally sublime and awe inspiring. Good going. Mark
Hi and thanks for watching, yes I spotted these trees from another hill and thought must go up there, it certainly all came together, weather, inversion deer loved it
Mind I payed the price, total mini tick count was seventeen yes 17 tiny ticks think they were 1st stage obviously an egg laying spot !
Cheers Adrian
@@northumberlandmountainhopper A pleasure there. Hey, good spotting. I'm always on the look out but have been injured of late. I'll be back out there enjoying such delights. Wow, mate 17 ticks - that's a mine field. Take care dude.
@@WyeExplorer they were just very small ticks 1st stage, but so small tweezers were reqd not the twist tool, so hopefully did not squash one as it was removed
Must have been an area where the eggs were, after all it was full of deer
Cheers
The light on the Cheviot was beautiful. What a great spot for your camp.
Just booked my annual dose of the Cheviots. Watching your channel always has me wishing I was there.
Hi and thanks for watching, I caught it just right for the weather and the views on this one,
Cheers
Wow. What a brilliant camp Adrian. Loved the cloud inversions in the morning it looked amazing. Stunning mate and a cracking video. Atvb Andy 🌲🌲🌲⛺🌲🌲🌲
Hi and thanks for watching, it was a nice camp, interesting how the inversion went and the mist came in so quickly, very nice to be so close to it unfolding
Cheers Adrian
You could break the outline of the tarp with some Woodland or MTP scrim net. No weight but would get rid of straight line green.
Hi and thanks for coming along, yes you are correct I should keep the small saw in my bag get some dead branches as I had to drop the tarp at one point, maybe look into some netting,
Cheers
Just stumbled across this video; what a spectacular view! New subscriber from Down Under; looking forward to following along :)
Hi and thanks for watching,
I have had three really good pitches of late, not all like that I am afraid
Cheers
Hi mate, what a cracking camp and spot 👍. Great vid as always, look after yourself bud and keep up the good work. Atb Andy
Hi Andy, thanks for watching, it was a great camp,it all fell into place, weather inversion and deer,
Ticks were something else at this spot !!!
Cheers Adrian
@@northumberlandmountainhopper I can imagine mate, I was out with Mya the husky for a scout about at Harwood Forest last weekend and she got covered, also was wild camping on sat night in that torrential rain and thunderstorm and she got a few tics and I got a few midge bites but was a fantastic camp. I wish I filmed it now 🤦. The new tent got a good waterproof test and very happy with it. Once the baby has arrived we will have to sort a camp out 👍
@@getaviewinya2664 sounds like a plan
17 ticks on me the wife and son had to get em off !!!!
Where did you camp
@@northumberlandmountainhopper that's a lot mate, lucky I've only found 5 in Mya and I've escaped this time. Was going to camp on Windy Gyle but about 20mins from car the thunder started so detoured to Davidson's Linn. Got into the valley and it was so still but what a downpour. It was so humid I didn't bother putting waterproofs on. Got the tent pitched then it stopped, so sat in the grass and had a beer then got into warm gear and passed out to the sound of the rain. Very damp and misty morning in the valley but beautiful.
That is an absolute peach of a spot. Brilliant video mate. Hardy
Hi and thanks for watching, it’s got to be my favourite Cheviot spot for the views,
Cheers Adrian
awesome :)
Hi and thanks for watching, it was a very enjoyable bivy with the rolling hills and weather
Cheers
Wow what an absolutely stunning spot to bivvy. Loved the footage of the deer. Really enjoyed your video. The clag was in this side of cheviot all evening. You got a stunning view of cheviot there mind. 😍
Hi and thanks for watching, yes I caught it just right, with the weather and the deer, were you on the Cheviot
Cheers
@mountain hopper57 unfortunately I wasn't but can see it from my house.
good video m8
Hi and thanks for watching, appreciated
Cheers
Perfect spot that 👍
Hi and thanks for watching, it was a great bivy but the ticks !!!!
Cheers
@@northumberlandmountainhopper never been bothered by ticks yet but I’ve heard you need to be extra wary at the minute as they are carrying some new disease
@@cheviotoutdoors all I know is I had 17 tiny ones on me must have been 1st stage ticks very small and have 17 red spots !!!!
I must have been bivying where the eggs were !!!!!!
@@northumberlandmountainhopper I always carry a tick remover in my first aid kit but fortunately I haven’t needed to use it yet
@@cheviotoutdoors yes I have two of the little tools as well but these were so tiny as I think 1st stage fine tweezers were required
Blimey Adrian, have you actually been home in the last week 😂 I’ll give it a watch in my break mate 👍
Hi Graham, lol, time for tents, 7 ticks removed !!!
Cheers Adrian

Enjoyed this one. You said you edit your videos on your phone? Great job
Hi and thanks for watching, yes no fancy stuff just done on I movie as I go ! It’s mainly for the memories rather than editing genius !
Glad you enjoyed it

Late spring and summer camping is not what i prefer if there is heat and humidity. I prefer fall and winter camping, especially winter.
Hi and thanks for popping by, summer can be too hot, but not very often we always have a nice breeze
Cheers
