I love your resilience, positivity and professionalism. I watch a lot of your videos when I need some inspiration. We are experienced hikers, and only just this year moved into wild camping. You are one of the very best channels for this activity, you don’t blow your own trumpet or are patronising like some. Keep them coming, you are helping a lot of people. PS: I do however, think Blue is the better wild camper. 😂😂

Hi Allen you always find so many nice places to camp blue loves camping thanks for the view
Swapped the rat race down south for the Peak District. I love cycling, so I go out on my gravel bike and explore, no matter what the weather. Different experiences, I think the views are spectacular when its raining, clouds hugging the hills and gaps with a ray of sunlight shining through onto a wet road climbing up a hill. Deer leaping over high dry stone walls. You don't see that watching Netflix.

I love the winter trips with Blue. You have inspired me to snowshoe 2 or 3 times a week. It is still winter in Ontario. Sometimes I take my twig stove and make coffee and lunch. I feel like I am camping and it gets me out, exercised and I look forward to it. And it makes those all important memories. My collie will eat everything, except citrus.

It has become one of my go-to tents when I’m out hiking and gradually I’m pushing its limits by using it for what it wasn’t designed for: stormy conditions and snow in the mountains. Mind you I’m also not using the fabric inner to keep out the nastiness. It’s only the 2-season tent. But I keep using a lightweight exped bivy insight the tent, to be on the safe side. At least in winter

Thanks for the video Allen. Funnily enough it was snowing when I walked up there at the end of January. Went all the way up to Mossdale Scar and over to Kettelwell. Since I started wild camping last year, it has all been in that valley from Grassington to Yokenthwaite and for me the scenery is stunning. I will be pushing myself to go further afield this year. That ravine reminds me of a mini Gordale Scar, lol.

Another great camp out there Al lad. You certainly make the most of your free time wisely and it's superbly documented pal and a pleasure to watch. I went out for a wander on Saturday on a fairly local jaunt but no wild camp but it was a covering of snow that I love as its so peaceful up there. I did pop a couple of pics of twitter. On another note, as I am a proper budget man, I currently walk in Gilert boots that state they are waterproof, they clearly aren't as they leak like a cullender. What what you recommend, my old fella reckons Brasher are a good boot leather or merralls. Some advise and maybe a model would help me if you could help in advice. I am the bloke who's sit mat is a couple of the foil backed laminate flooring underlay which actually works well so go easy on the budget boot recommendation.

I'm sure Al will follow this through at some point, but in the meantime look up 'drystone walls' - plenty of text, images & video available on the web. Yes, they're time-consuming to build (like a never-ending jigsaw-puzzle) but being mortar-free they shift with the ground & elements and so last for quite literally hundreds of years. There's a very old film on KZread called 'Man of Aran' (the Aran Islands, off the west coat of Ireland),which is fascinating to watch, as it shows how such walls were built on top of huge expanses of bare rock to provide the shelter necessary to allow soil to be quite literally manufactured from sand & seaweed carried up from the shore. And wherever sections of wall have collapsed, the ferocious Atlantic wind has blown all the soil away ...!
When wild camping, your happy doing nothing, at home got all the convenience in world thousand of TV shows to watch and it is boring basically waiting go bed to do it all again so true, must be the primal in us I think we are not designed for it I certainly ain't not got a camp in this year can't wait feel I need it, look forward to van update aswell 👍
