When this guy says he's going to make some dinner I assumed he was going to pull out a freeze-dried ration and boil some water on his gas cylinder stove. You know, quick and easy. But no, he starts chopping fresh veggies and browning 1/2 pound of beef. But that's not all, he whacks out a Trangia alcohol burner in those gale-force winds, and then proceeds to lit it with a match, just to make himself a proper meal. That's my new definition of dedication. Never again will I complain about my camp food.

I’d like to attempt a car or camper van conversion at some point for longer travels. Would make a nice base camp to start a trip. Appreciate the comment.

This one gave me a good chuckle 👍. Yeah he’s been great. I only had to pay him once and since then he just sits there with the camera wherever I tell him. He’s pretty lazy about walking, though. I always have to go back and get him. OK, I will stop. I think I’m starting to get into dad joke territory 😂. But Tri last name Pod is great! … It’s official I’m a dad 😅. I took it too far, but I do really appreciate your comment! In this weather, I wasn’t convinced I was able to get any nice shots, but having the GoPro mounted on my the tripod I normally use for my large camera definitely helps 👍. ATB

Question - your meals all look delicious. But why don’t you do the prep (cutting spring onions, slicing garlic, etc ) at home, before you set out? It would save some time (and waste) once you start to cook?

@GoingSoloOutdoors

Ай бұрын

That’s a great question. Typically I bag all my ingredients a day or two before a camp. The morning of the camp I take it out of the fridge drop my kids off at school and have typically a 4.5hr drive then a few hours to hike. Most of the time if I were to cut certain ingredients ahead of time and bag them, they either loose their moisture or get slimy and mushy. And sometimes my plans also change completely and all the ingredients can remain fresher for a few days longer until I can actually get out for the camp because they are uncut. I want to have a fresh meal like I would make it at home while I’m out so I don’t mind the chopping at camp. I enjoy the entire cooking experience 👍. Really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. ATB

Definitely not ideal conditions but as long as I take my time and think things through, and I don’t make a silly mistake, usually I can still have an enjoyable camp in this kind of weather.

Thanks! Not the easiest hike. I was happy to at least find a sheltered enough area to pitch the tent for the evening. Appreciate the comment 👍😀 ATB

Your dinner looked great and perfect on a day like that! Camps like that are so memorable and become a story to tell to all the normal people back home. I had a peg come out when I camped in the windy Cairngorms in December and my Soulo moved about 6’’ while I was readjusting the guy lines. It shows how important it is for the Soulo to have evenly tensioned guy lines.

Always nice to enjoy a warm meal in when it’s cold and wet outside the tent. Definitely important to get the guy lines secured and properly anchored in windy conditions like this but once they are these Hillebergs are no going anywhere 👍. I still haven’t had a chance to camp in the Cairngorms. I need to change that! Really appreciate you taking the time to comment! ATB

Just finding the time to sit down and watch now, only 10 minutes in and brutal. Had similar on Dartmoor not too long ago, certainly an experience. Keep up the great work.
