Loved the vid, exciting stuff. I have a similar tent and I actually find putting the porch area into the wind is far better. As you said towards the end the angled foot if pitched into the wind does collapse in on your feet. If the entrance is into the wind the flat front of the inner tent stays upright. A tent of this quality will still stand even if the door area is into the wind. Also Hilleberg say to do it this way lol😂 so that's good enough for me. It's something to do with how the wind hits the front then slides over the ever decreasing hight of the rest of the tent. I'm off to watch some more of your vids now. Cheers.

Many, many, many thanks for the editing work on the transcription ! The only other one that I know of on YT, who also generously takes the time to do that, is David of the excellent channel Cruising the Cut. So precious for the non-natives ! Keep up the good work, and the good times of course ! Cheers from France.

Every hilwalking youtuber takes cans of beer with them, must be essential. I assume it is to rehydrate your meal if can't find water , or to bribe a ranger with if you get caught illegally camping. Drinking all that beer you will need to pee, so can use the empty can in a storm instead of going out into the bad weather, just make sure you remember which cans contain beer though.

I reckon that car in the evening was a couple of locals looking for some dogging company 😂😂, you did well to keep hidden and stealthy 😬! I hope you've both got one of those e-bikes for your first tour of Dartmoor! I do a lot of road cycling around West Dartmoor and you're grateful for that 22nd gear at some points 🥵.
