I am so glad, you are not using a Lanshan tent in those conditions. The Hilleberg will keep you safe in high winds and the worst of storms in the winter. Safe travels. Always. =)

As a nature person myself I appreciate your video, exploring nature and promoting its care is done beautifully here. Your cinematography is simply flawless!🔥🔥

Lots of thoughts, as usual. I’ll stick with two. 1. A beautiful winter camp. 2. You make me smile. 🥰 All the best. Be safe.

This is a very practical loadout. That ice axe looks like it could even protect you from wolves.

You've got quite a comprehensive set of gear there, just 1 change I would recommend is to exchange the opinel for a multi tool, small swiss army knife or similar, couple of extra tools there, incase you need to tighten a screw up on your tripod or similar. Just a thought, the wife an I always look forward to your delightful videos. Thanks Ant

Another super-informative film, Claire. Thank for sharing.

Been waiting on this video

It's all awesome! Thank you for sharing.

Brilliant guide there Claire, somethings I've never thought of that I will include in my hikes

Wow!! Looks super cozy. Lovin the drone intro. ty for sharing!!

Love the gear videos! Just gives me more ideas on what I want to get! Thank you so much Claire for all of the great content!

Great video. Hope you have a great year ahead. Can’t wait for the next video!

Great video Claire, it’s great to see how everything goes in to such a compact space 🙂

Thank you Claire. Always good to see how someone else kits and packs for these adventures. Will certainly be borrowing a few of your ideas from this video. Keep up the good work. 🎉

Thank you for this really clear and useful guide - much appreciated. Looks lovely where you were for this vlog

Another great video as always, and I've learnt a few new things... and that I need to buy and couple things and also consider getting in the near future! So not only a good watch but informative as well so 👌😉

Really good and informative Clare, well done!!

Fantastic content! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you WildBeare. That was interesting and really useful for someone like me needing a bit of guidance on what gear to consider when there is so much choice out there.

Love your videos. Keep them coming.

Great job Claire. Thanks for the great information.

Winter wildcamping? You are a badass Claire! Thank you for continuing to inspire us to get out there and have adventures-

Wow thank you! Got my shopping list going. You're so much fun !

Great gear Claire. I don't normally camp in the winter, but your detailed description of the gear makes me think that I could do it. Stay Beautiful, ingenious, and warm.

You are an inspirational light in the world of camping and backpacking.

A very informative video, and so beautifully presented, very professional production! Happy Chinese New Year! Wish you many more great adventures in the year of the rabbit!

What a find!!! I’m planning my first proper solo camp and hike and some of these tips and items I’d never have thought of! Very well presented and clear - concise! New subscriber!

Very interesting Claire. Amazing what you can fit in a ruck sack. 👍🏻

Great video thanks for sharing Some really good ideas in there 🙏

Watching this as I cook my tea. You’re so good at making these videos, and wonderful company!

thank you sooooooooo much for all your videos!!! may you never change!!!

Good to see how much you have learned over many trips, these life skills will be very useful in life as well as camping, thanks for sharing Claire 😊👍🏽⛺️♥️

I really enjoy watching your videos so thanks for that.

Thanks for giving us a video list of what you bring on your Wildings this time of year. Amazing to get all that stuff into that sack!

Another great video . Nice too switch off and watch after a 13hr shift in the steelworks. Mountain in the Neath Valley tomorrow . Looking forward too the next one . Stay safe 🍀

Hey Claire, thank you for sharing your journey :)

Great review of your gear ! And helpful Love your tent !! Cheers Graham

A few things added to the list for next winter. Great tips as always 👍🏻

Yey the disappearing jump thingy is back 😊 great video, you can tell lots of thought goes into your trips! Thanks for sharing

I love your channel and the enthusiastic way you have of counting your routes. A greeting from Spain!

Excellent video as always great kit list

Another great video WildBeare! 👍😄

Quality tent for keeping you safe in winter I was getting a bit worried with some of those pole tents Nice layout

Spare bootlace 👏 excellent idea. Great video!

I do enjoy your combination of lightweight backpacking and the use of modern equipment. I do hope that you keep that jovial, positive method in all your uploads? Practical advice and no doom.

Very informative Claire. It gives everyone - and especially a novice like me - a clear indication of the sort of essentials required. Many Thanks - Rob.

Not sure where to start with the comments…first off, omg your rapid evolution to one of the top KZread channels, you should have a million subscribers. The gear choices show an obvious series of choices based on USE, not some armchair BS. I’ve never even seen a Hilleberg tent but from what I can tell they are the Gold Standard of bomber tents. You post some of the absolute best videos on KZread, I hope you continue! I’m still not sure how your partner can leave you to do these solo adventures, be safe!

Hope you're having a great week! 🌿🐻 Claire

most excellent especially the safety oriented comments. All is well when all is well, but when you need things great to have it close to hand in all the right places.

Super lod out! 🙂 Gears with excellent performance for a safe winter overnight. ❄️ Thx

That looks a perfect tent for the conditions-great vid stay safe

Loved this video Claire. I've been hiking for over 40 years. Although I have lots of quality gear, I have never been able to afford the Hilleberg Soulo tent. Just checked prices, with the base liner, nearly one thousand pounds !! Who in this modern day can afford to spend that much on a tent ? It's almost as much as my old car ! Not realistic today for most.

It’s good to see you have a routine packing and unpacking it helps to make sure you don’t forget something. A tip I learned from my grandma, she put scented soap in drawers at home, when you open a drawer it had an amazing smell so I pack my stuff with a bar of my favourite soap it’s so nice.

@WildBeare

Ahh that's nice, I totally get that ☺️ I don't wear perfume but one of my photography clients gave me a tiny vial of lovely fragrance. So I spray it on a sweet elephant I keep on my bed, I also spray it on my camping pillow so it makes my tent smell like my bed at home. It's a simple comfort that can make all the difference in a stormy or unfamiliar territory 🤍

Thank you for taking the time to show the viewer all the items you take and how you pack them away . Very informative and helpful ! Love how you express your love for the out of doors and your joy for solo camping . Your videos are very ‘artful’ and shows the viewer your proficient use of filming equipment !

You're videos are just spot on

well done. a nice packout /pack-in, and good gear. the ocoopa is great, i have two now :)

Love your videos ❤️. One thing I take with me winter or summer is a good flask that'll keep water hot for 20+hours .Fill it when doing the evening meal. Hot drink during the night if needed or coffee with a flap jack for breakfast with no need to get the stove out .

There is no bad weather only bad gear. I love camping in the snow it’s so quiet and peaceful.

Nice one girl. Great vid. Good info and loved the way you pack your sack Cheers.

Wow..... that's an amazing amount of stuff that you carry in your rucksack. You've definitely covered all bases. Thank you for posting this detailed video, it's really helpful. Love your videos. Always so inspiring. Take care, have fun and all the best👍

Good for you getting the Hilleberg Soulo. It’s a bombshell of a tent. It will keep you safe in really bad weather. I speak from experience, when I say it can take definitely take on horrible weather , and come out on top. ATB 🇳🇴

Merci Claire...pour cette vidéo " rafraîchissante " ! ! ! Salutations de France...😄😀😘

Good point about keeping your first aid kit accessible. Last week I accidently cut off part of the tip of my finger with my knife. Carelessness on my part. Digging around one handed for the first aid kit was pretty difficult, and also discovered how difficult it is to open a wound dressing with one hand! I think I might look at getting a mini first aid pouch to keep clipped to my belt.

Really glad to see you have a personal locator beacon and drew attention to its importance.

I was planning on doing a video about my stuff and how I pack my rucksack, great minds think alike!!! I laughed at digging a hole for your nuts! 😂🤣😂 Great video and I always love seeing what other people use! Happy adventures this weekend my lovely friend!! 🥰

ClaireBeare!!! I was mostly amazed that you put your tent INSIDE your rucksack! I usually strap mine on top. Thanks for the video!

Ur so perfect!!! Enjoy watching ur trips. Always makes me want to go camping.

Ah toujours aussi sympa ces vidéos. Hyper qualitatives, sans prises de tête, à défaut de prise au vent (je viens de regarder l’épisode venteux et c’est le moins qu’on puisse dire 😅. Réellement c’est un plaisir de regarder ces panoramas qui font envie. J’ai adoré mon voyage en Écosse, mes excursions en Irlande, et là je )me dis qu’il y a une destination possible! Merci de partager ces moments de vie entre douleur et récompenses, entre cette végétation si caractéristique et ces ciels magnifiques. Merci pour ces sourires radieux mal grès la difficulté des ces escapades. Bravo et merci de donner envie, d’avoir parfois même l’impression d’y être. C’est un privilège qu’il faut entretenir, et c’est bien parti.

Excellent kit, essential stuff right down to the spare boot lace 👏🏻😁 love it. 💪🏻

Claire, I just got back from a two week desert camping trip in Nevada, USA! Unfortunately, we had a huge wind storm blow through the camp, but because of your videos I was able to use your advice to reinforce my tent, calm myself down, and prevent any damage. After the storm, it turned out to be an amazing trip. So happy to watch your videos and learn from them!! Sarah
