UK Mountain Tarn Wild Camping with Andy Wardle in STRONG WINDS & 4 Season Tents
I team up with Andy Wardle for a collaboration wild camp. We head to the Western Fells of the Lake District National park to an idyllic mountain tarn. A few (hundred) beers in hand, we hike to the summit with ridiculously heavy packs and find a place to pitch the tents. Lots of rain over the last few days meant suitable pitches were few and far between. A group advised us there were no suitable places to put the tents, but experience prevailed and we soon found the only suitable pitch and had the spot all to ourselves.
Andy camped in the Hilleberg Soulo Black Label and I used the Tarptent Scarp 1. The winds were wild and gusting throughout the night but the tents are designed to withstand much worse conditions, so proved to be the trusty shelters that they’re renowned for.
We swapped tales of the outdoors, life and shared many beers together. Andy also enjoyed the opportunity to answer some questions which some viewers had kindly submitted, so thanks for that.
A top night out with a great bloke and fellow wild camping enthusiast!
