Each to their own! 👍

@outdoorswithrichard exactly like that! 😉👍

Carbon monoxide detector is a good idea! 👍

Absolutely correct! Always advisable to have good air flow when using gas! 👍

I totally agree with what your saying, however a cracking little tent for the money nevertheless 👍

Ridiculous price for a tent I know!

It’s a great tent, you won’t be disappointed! 👍

Thanks for all your comments! Getting out camping again will do you the world of good! With reference to the size of the Hilleberg Soulo, check out my video on the sizing, here’s the link! The Hilleberg Soulo - Big Enough For Tall People? kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6Ccf6qJbLmBetk Reference the footprint, this can be connected to the base of the tent, saving you time when pitching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/morPp5uFr5qIrLcsi=crP13dgWK59iXGxa👍

No bivi or tent will suit everyone and for all occasions, hence some people have 2-3 different tents etc. But for the price I think this bivi offers good value for money! 👍

Thanks for your comment! The expandable panel is already attached to the sleeping bag, so you can use this sleeping bag as a standard size or unzip the extra panel giving you that extra width! 👍

Stealth camping is about looking over your shoulder 👀 Also if I had of been caught I didn’t have any fishing rods or nets with me, so wouldn’t of been done for poaching! 🎣

@@outdoorswithrichard Why ? Just so you can feel like you got one over . I just dont see why you would seek to go to the boundary fence of a trout farm . Hey , boundary fence of a miltary base , see if you can sleep against the fence without getting noticed . 2 tins of stella for you if you pull it off ?

@ stealth camping videos are all just a bit of fun, as are most stealth camping videos on KZbin!

Very!

@@outdoorswithrichard he should advise you get better map me thinks . Why would anyone want to chose such a spot where they are constantly looking over their shoulder and cant chill . are you sure it's not just about the buzz of sticking it to the trout farm . At least you told them afterwards .

Cheers for your great comments! 👍 How did your bivvy camp go at anchor church?

@outdoorswithrichard Very well thanks. I didn't get much sleep but the experience was great. I wasn't spooked out by sleeping in the cave bizarrely but the prospect of being disturbed by uninvited guests! 😱🤣

@@coalvillenitewalker yeah I didn’t get too much sleep either, but the experience for me out ways the sleep at times. I never get spooked out, the more camps I’ve done, I’ve just got used to sights and sounds at night and I certainly don’t believe in ghosts! 😂

Thanks for your comments, I must say I haven’t done much hammock camping myself, but would like to explore it a bit more! 👍

@outdoorswithrichard I have watched adventures with the marine on the KZbin channel. Whom as aspired me to try hammock camping and have never looked back. Maybe you can yourself get some tips on some of his videos for beginners. All the best

Cheers 👍

Thanks for your comments! You’re absolutely right there normally are people wandering around groundsman, fisherman etc. I don’t know as the weather was fairly cool, if it kept most people inside the farm shop, or maybe I just got lucky! It was definitely a mission getting up close, it took ages to get where I did, but worth the effort! I’m pleased you liked the video and Green and Sand colour tents are a great and popular choice! 👍

I’ve never had a problem with my tent.

@ how long you own it how many times have you took it out in a heavy rain storm

@Bikepacking I’ve owned my Hilleberg Niak for over a year and had it in many rain storms and wind and it’s never leaked or let me down!

@ wow maybe i and friends where just unlucky\ mine 3 years old

@ sometimes these things happen unfortunately!

Each to there own! 👍

Interesting! 🤔

I upgraded to the 10mm poles and upgraded the tent pegs and now it’s safe as houses! I personally love the simplicity of this tent! 👍

Thanks for your comments Jeff. You can’t go wrong with a Vango tent! 👍

I don’t know about people becoming richer, but people that like Hilleberg tents and choose to spend there money on high end tents are gravitating towards a simpler designed tent, that is capable in most weathers.

Thanks for your comments. Personally I think the Naturehike tents are great bang for your buck, I also believe what’s a pro for some is a con for another and visa versa!

Cheers mate, really appreciate it! I’ll check out your channel and return the sub! 👍

Thanks so much 😉👍

Thank you for your kind comments, I’m glad you liked the video! 👍

Great question! To be honest I love the Hilleberg Unna, it’s easy to pitch, can be pitched pretty much anywhere, free standing and you have decent internal space where you can sit up, especially if you had to be in your tent for long periods of time! The Unna will also cope in pretty much any weathers! Some people think it’s not great in high winds due to its high sides, but Hilleberg recently up loaded a video of the Unna being tested in 60mph winds!! so that’s put those concerns to bed, here’s the link to watch that video kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJuxd36LZ5ybptEsi=t4sDXulcU0AJk0qC Also if you wanted even more strength in your Unna, you can double pole or buy the 10mm DAC poles, you could also upgrade your tent pegs! The Unna is great for one person, but would be a squeeze for 2 adults! The Unna is also fairly light. With regards to mesh inner, these seem to be hard to get hold of for most Hilleberg tents! I would contact Hilleberg directly and ask them, I’ve always found them very helpful! The Unna doesn’t have a vestibule and is a deal breaker for some, but if you’ve watched my review on The Unna, you can see there are ways around that! Sorry for the long winded response, I hope this helps! 👍

Nice video Richard. I think the Unna is becoming increasingly popular as more people realise you can easily get around the vestibule issue. The mesh inner is hard to get hold off. I'm not sure Hilleberg would approve of this but the mesh inner of the Soar by Trekkertent will fit the Unna. It's really just a case of adjusting the length of the shock cord attachment loops. It's narrower than the proper inner so it automatically creates a larger vestibule. The corner seams are not seam sealed but you can easily do that yourself. It is if course a helluva lot cheaper than the official Hilleberg inner. Works okay for the summer months m.​@@outdoorswithrichard

@@frederickridall628 thanks for the advice and tips, I might look into that! 👍

It’s not as bad as you think 😂

I would agree! 👍

nah I did a week with my dlx euro that's 3.6 kg ...🤷‍♂️

Yes it was, to be honest I was surprised at that considering how cold it got! 🥶

Thanks for your comments and positive feedback! I’m pleased you enjoyed the video! 👍

Really enjoyed it, a great spot, one of my favourites, especially in the summer time! 👍

It is a bit on the heavy side, however the storage bag is fairly weighty, so you could ditch that, also get some ultralight pegs, to lighten the load 👍

That’s high praise indeed! 👍

@outdoorswithrichard Excellent response time.... I'm still watching your video! 😮 I've just bought the Hunka XL but am considering this for next year. Your review has convinced me to put this on my wishlist. 👍

Treat yourself, a late Christmas present! 👍

Totally agree! With this tent you certainly get plenty of bang for your buck! 👍

I always put a tarp over my bivy, as it gives me plenty of room to cook and sit, while protecting me from the elements! Also you can’t sit in your bivy all night!

Cracking little tent! You won’t be disappointed! 👍

The one I used at the time in the video is the Flextail Tiny Pump x2: amzn.eu/d/90gZTTM The latest Flextail Pump is the Flextail Max Pump 3: www.flextail.com/products/max-pump-3 Both pumps are very similar, the newer one is just a bit more powerful! Hope this helps! 👍

6ft 9” WoW that’s tall! Yeah you definitely won’t fit in this tent! Shame as it’s a cracking tent! Kaitum is a great tent, however at your height I’m sure you find a lot tricky, but I’m sure make it work! 👍

@ The Kaitum (Keron, Helags) series are also 220cm long but feature totally vertical ends making the space useable even for the likes of me but at a cost of size and weight (except for Helags). I own a Big Agnes Copper Spur “Long” which is perfect for tall users but wouldn’t trust it in bad weather conditions. I’ve thought about the Unna but again I think it’s unsuitable for someone of my height.

I used to have a Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2, I loved that tent! The Unna is a good tent, but do agree, it probably wouldn’t work for you! However whatever tent you have, you have to have confidence in it, when the weather turns!

The Snugpak Scorpion 2 is a great tent! With regards to room inside, it is cosy, to be honest my wife wouldn’t want to be that close to me lol 😂 My dog however just puts up with me though! 😂 I do love the Pine colour, mind you most greens blend well as stealthy colours! 👍

I love my scorpion 2. For when it's just me. In looking to upgrade to the 3 for when my wife comes with. I like to keep my gear in the tent with me

Look at the vango radon ul2 Comes in at 1.8kg for a realistic 2 person tent . Or the radon 1 if its just you .

@rufusduck71 too pricey I'm afraid...good looking tent though 🫡..thanks chap.

If you see a tent you like, but a bit heavy, you can always ditch the tent bag, as they tend to be fairly heavy on their own! Also change out the ground pegs, for lighter ones! The total weight saving for those two things on their own can be surprisingly substantial! However also some times knowing the tent your carrying ticks all your boxes and gives you piece of mind, in my opinion is sometimes worth carrying the extra weight! 👍

Agree with that . Carrying less water /drinks and batteries for tec is a great way of saving weight from your pack. I consume way less water in spring than I do in summer . As for the radon 2 .I've got one and feel it could be the perfect 1 tent does all backpacking solution . It's £230 light enough for 1 man to carry big enough for 2 to sleep in well built / strong and stealthy . I've been looking for the perfect twnt for years .this may be it .

@ points well made! I think we all look for the perfect tent for our own wants and needs, but unfortunately I don’t think it exists! So comprise and common sense has to take over! 👍

I’m sure you’ve been “VERY GOOD!” 😂

Very similar! 👍

@@outdoorswithrichard but much stronger..🫡

I agree the weight is a little on the steep side, but the confidence my tent gives me is worth carrying the extra weight! 😅 I too love my Unna and to be honest is now my go to tent for most camps! 👍

I’m a big fan of the Big Agnes Rapide SL! 👍
