WET WILD CAMPING - TENT TALK in the Peak District Wool Packs UK
PHDesigns - Alpine Ultra Half Bag
Half bags are awesome to make up a sleep system when you are already carrying a down jacket to keep weight to a minimum. This one only weighs 250g so can be used to sleep in as it is or as an extra layer inside another full sleeping bag for very cold conditions. I look forward to testing it further!

PHDesigns - Yukon Down Pullover: K Series
Amazingly warm for just 355g! I love the fact that it’s a pullover so you can join your hands in the pocket to keep warm. It has a typical operating temperature of -15C so perfect for UK winters and even high altitude expeditions. This will definitely be my go to jacket for winter camping with… warm, ultra lightweight and small packsize👌

PHDesigns - Minimus Down Trousers
Ultralight (230g) packable down trousers using 900 fill power down. Simple design to reduce weight but functionally perfect for those colder nights at camp with a typical operating temperature of -5C.

Just done Mam Tor, Hollins Craoos, Back Tor, Lose Hill etc and back down to Castleton today. Beyond Muddy and claggy ! Great video Al - good to see you out and about in the Peak District ❤️👍🏻
What a cool landscape and I think the tent fit in well! I love Osprey packs, I hope yours goes well!
Good to see you in the Peaks, was going to camp there last night before the weather warning for rain. As you can see it’s muddy enough!!!
It's amazing how you can be in your tent for so long whilst keeping things so interesting , great content . Brilliant video footage scrambling over those rocks , the camera never left you .. Keep them coming ,Top man

As everyone else is saying, great seeing you in the Peaks! Woolpacks is by far my favourite wild camp spot although it’s busy, practically a campsite in summer these days.
Heading back home (North Uist in Outer Hebrides) from seeing family in Cambridgeshire, had to go for hike and a nights wild camping up T'north (Lake District) en route. All cosy in me sleeping bag and listening to the rain, I thought I'd watch a couple of your videos - thought you summed it up nicely in this one...Living the dream! Absolutely!
Thanks bro! 🙂
Anything but boring, Al! :) When I can't get out, you'll do for me... Vicarious camping! Love it! Thank you, as always.
Camped in that spot loads of times brilliant spot to chill out
Love the vids; always look forward to them on a Sunday evening. Ever thought about doing Coast to Coast. Love the positive attitude

Hi Al, you did well to sleep 8hrs. Must have bin cosy. We missed seeing Blue but glad he had a rest at hom e.😊😊
Great video as usual
You were very unlucky Al. In 25yrs of exploring Kinder I've never known it to be claggy, wet and definitely no boggy ground😂. It's always a pleasure listening to your thoughts about life. 🐐 ❤
Great video really enjoyed, I stayed there for the 1st time last month and had a great but cold time
I love your videos bud, I have an 8 year old son and a black Labrador and these inspire me to get him outdoors. Keep up the good work👍☘️

After watching (and enjoying) many of your videos, I managed to source the gsi minimalist to pair with my soloist, after a few months of use, can I say what a great addition it is!, thought I’d share that with you (😴) what an amazing little setup it really is 👍 love the sippy cup in a tent…. I’ve been minus the tea/coffee stains a little while now! Another enjoyable video 👌

Another interesting video, the boulders were brilliant the hot chocolate and coffee interesting and blue would be manky if he'd gone
Great to see you my neck of the woods 😊many good camps up there. Great video again. Just not sure of you hot drink selection 😄 one of the other in my opinion. Chocolate last drink of the night 👍🏻
Your videos are great! Blue is amazing and your kit reviews are spot on. You know what I like the best though.. it's when you urge people to just be present! Just to stop and pay attention to everything. We all seem to need constant distractions :)

Yes it’s definitely how I’ve always kept a happy soul.
Besides going to Matlock on a school residential, I've also never visited the Peak District. I don't know why but I just find it much easier to travel north from where I live. More sceneic route I guess. When you were up on those rocks, my first thought was, they are not a patch on Brimham Rocks. 😅 Some of them did look rather cool though, especially the one with the peaked cap. Nice to see you somewhere new. Thanks Al. 👊
Loving your videos fella. Handsome and humorous. Well hog my haversack!

I've been walking many times across the Roaches and Ramshaw Rocks near Leek and Dragons Back near Buxton. Used to be my backyard before moving up to Cumbria 12 years ago.
Good to see you out in my neck of the woods, I’ve walked up that way and camped on top of Kinder a few times myself. Also glad to see you didn’t bring your potty mouth with you from the Lake District video last week 😂

Clarty! Grim! Those views would look so much better if the sun was belting down! I lived in Derbyshire Dales for quite a few years. I prefer walking along dales rather than up Peaks! I look forward to joining you up every hill I haven’t been up 😎
Great video Al. Good to see you out and about in new territories. The Peaks looks good, like Dartmoor on steroids!
Great video as always Al - but I missed the usual music at the end! Looking forward to seeing your next one as always.
Those boulders had some amazing shapes..as you say weather been all over the place last few weeks. Very mild for Feb
Morning flower! Really enjoy your video's of u and blue, I checked out some of the prices of the jackets you wear, goodness me! I'll have to start saving you my penny's 😮 from one yorkshire man to another, keep safe and carry on! 👍

You don’t need to spend that money unless you have to save weight and packsize. It is awesome stuff but better for the extreme expeditions

If you want a healthy crouton style crunch then smash up some Nairn's Gluten Free Original Oatcakes. I break them in the packet and then mix them in with veg and tuna-mayo. Some wonderful scenery, up there. Thank you for another beautiful video.

Yeah I like them. They used to have a cheese one but I can’t ever find it.
Great video. I went to the peak district about ten years ago. It was in summer, I remember it being dryer than now but still plenty of peat bogs (like Dartmoor😂). I really like the down jacket, but I'm not sure about half of a sleeping bag!
Crikey I am glad I found a pitch on Tuesday night as I was up there then, its a busy spot Woolpacks - you were definitely moving faster than my ode body 😄 but I like to think back to the days when fear wasn't an option as also been in some scary spots in my younger days in the Alps and Himalayas - some interesting kit you are using, I have never heard of PH Designs so will be checking them out - thanks

I think climbers years ago christened that area of weirdly shaped rocks 'Whipsnade', after the zoo, thinking of the rocks as surreal animals. Love Kinder Scout. There's so much to explore: Grindsbrook, Kinder Downfall, the Kinder river, Kinder Gates, etc., etc. Fantastic under snow.
Nice video mate, pH designs stuff is top notch isn't it 👌. I've not been hiking in the peak district, done a bit of cycling there, may have to try a laal trip in the summer for a wander and a camp. Keep up the good work and look forward to the next video 👊👌

Still amazes me Al how much you can fit into a rucksack. But then again I have seen first hand how much the PHD kit compresses down. Watching that sleeping bag disappear into the Thermarest stuff back was like watching a magic trick. Now you see it, now you don’t 🤣🤣

You got a typical kinder welcome! I'm from Sheffield, it's on my doorstep so to speak and had many a drenching up there, apart from one proper scare trying to take a shortcut down a really narrow ravine in bad weather cos I was desperate to get off and down! Got stuck and I think you can guess how I felt. Ended up going back up to the summit even more wet, knackered and with legs full of lactic acid....the joys of kinder on a bad day....😂

Plenty of good spots up there including Woolpacks. And yes most of it is just Peat. Welcome to the Peaks! Like you say. Not quite the Lakes but its pretty good! Stratos is my goto bag for minimalistic summer camping or bivvying. Decent and tough bag.

I was up there yesterday was a brilliant walk did just short of 10 mile starting from kinder reservoir round kinder down it was so slippy going down was funny 😂
That was Kinder Scout you were on btw - my local hill 45 mins away! A good tip for a brilliant breakfast back in Edale is Newfold Farm campsite cafe. Good food in Ye Olde Nag’s Head pub too.
