WILD CAMPING UK - IN AN OLD QUARRY | CAMPING IN SNOWDONIA | MSR FREELITE 2 | MOEL SIABOD

WILD CAMPING UK - IN AN OLD QUARRY | CAMPING IN SNOWDONIA | MSR FREELITE 2 | MOEL SIABOD
Hello again guys, and thanks for checking out this video.
Last Saturday I headed back up to Snowdonia’s National Park for a mountain wild camp in my new MSR FreeLite 2 tent.
I arrived fairly late in the day but managed a summit of Moel Siabod in really windy conditions. I then headed back down the mountain to the abandoned Rhos Slate quarry where I pitched up amongst the 200 year old ruins and had the most amazing sunrise the next morning!
This was another one of my favourite camps, probably my favourite mountain camp to date.
Hope you all enjoy the video, and look forward
to catching up with you all in the comments
Stay spunky

    Did this many a time while at university in Bangor. Dinorwig is the best for camping as there are lots of old mine workings and caves to sleep in. However, pick your spot wisely. Nothing quite as scary as being woken up in the middle of the night by angry sheep staring at you because you are sleeping in their shelter. 😂

A lot is now fenced off, including the blue lake but its easy to get around if you climb higher. It can be quite a dangerous place as there are lots of slag heaps and uneven ground, which is why it was fenced off. 👍 There are some good spots higher up in Snowdonia. Some lovely secluded lakes where wild swimming is popular.

    Couldn't agree more about the lack of seam sealing. It's madness that these company's invest millions to find the latest lightweight material with a great hydrostatic head rating, only to then let water in through the seams, crazy. Good to see you out and about again, some great scenic views, nice drone shots as well. Take care.

    Hi Ash, great video, Wales is a beautiful part of the nation. However, just to correct you on the seam sealing comment: I've recently bought an MSR Freelite 1, and it too came with a bottle of seam sealer, but if you read the label on the bottle it states that the seams are sealed and the extra sealer is for any future repairs. So you can relax, it'll stay dry for years to come!

    Hello mate, thanks for watching the video! And thanks for the advice, do you have the 2022 version? I got this early last year and while researching I found that if It was going to be used in extreme weather conditions it needs sealing, and we all know what wales is like lol Well at least I know I should be safe! And thanks again for watching Mike! All the best Ash

    Hi Ash. No, I looked at the 2022 version but I wasn't fond of the new lighter shade of green fly, or the sculptured cut on the end which exposes more of the red inner, so I bought the older version, with darker fly. It looks from your video to be a similar vintage to yours except mine is one man. I bought mine at the end of February and the weather was dry, however, in recent weeks we've had wind, rain, sleet and snow and so far the Freelite 1 has stood up to all of it. I think MSR tents are excellent!
