3000ft Solo Mountain Wild Camp on Ill Crag in the MLD Duomid

Lake District wild camping - First wild camp in my new Mountain Laurel Designs Duomid tent at 3000ft on Ill Crag near Scafell Pike, in the Lake District.
My route took me from Dungeon Ghyll heading up Rossett Gill past Angle Tarn, Esk Hause and on to Ill Crag. A still night with a sky full of stars. My return route was via Esk Pike, Bowfell, and Crinkle Crags and a look at the bad step. My Strava stats recorded a 16 mile walk with 4900ft of ascent. Couldn’t resist a cooling dip at the end. Such a beautiful day.
Many thanks for watching - Dave

At 28.50 (in the vid) as if going up take the right hand side around a large block which brings you out above the bad step. Can take this in descent too from the summit of Crinkle Crags. More interesting than the usual diversion. Anyway, great vid as usual 👍

@@TheSoloSummiteer was just thinking about the condensation in your tent. Could be because it has the single apex where the air might tend to condense at the narrow top and run down? Dome tents may allow more ventilation and the air is more widely distributed? Either that or it’s your hot air? 😂

Knew you’d end up on the Rosset Gill slog to Angle Tarn before long, even without camping too close! Great stuff. 👍🏼

[@thedaftestnameicouldthinko8233]

The Duomid is normally good as far as condensation is concerned. My last camp had rain but the inside stayed dry. I have the old model which has a vent which looks larger than the new type. I doubt that would matter, though. As others have said, if the conditions favour dew formation, the fabric will get wet. BTW, I carry a few titanium nail pegs for rocky ground. They stand up to hammering into the ground.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Thanks for the comments ED. Much appreciated. I think it was just the conditions on the night. Good shout about the titanium pegs 👍ATB Dave

[@TonyHobbs]

Hello there 😆 small world 🌎 I was passing by found this video yup its smaller vent and tighter too Ron finally sorted the flappy vent Generally the old design fine only if wind did 180 and rain it could drip inside 😀 ops there is a fix but not sure what some stiffener or something

[@andybennett3122]

Great video once again. Re: the condensation. I was out on the same night as you, but over on Dow Crag. I've never experienced so much condensation as I did that night. My tent was absolutely soaked. I think it was purely down to the drop in temperature as it was warm in the evening, but dropped heavily over night and into the morning. There was a lot of cloud/mist too, so perhaps a high humidity? Anyway, I think its something that would occur in any tent on that night. Cheers, take care.

[@TheSoloSummiteer]

Many thanks Andy 👍. I think you’re right. Basically down to the conditions at the time not particularly this tent, or any other tent. ATB Dave

Classic injury comment, don't know what it is, but no pain during exercise! The endorphins released during exercise are great pain suppression hormones. As I get older, I rely on them to get me where I want to go and continue muscle strengthening exercises, to help combat muscle wastage as you age. It's approx 1% increasing to 6% muscle wastage a year from 40 to 65 years. It's worth researching the endocrine system and how to combat age related muscle wastage to keep doing what you enjoy.

[@JRLNeal]

Damn I’m 70 soon. Am I a gonner already? Actually I just did Helm Crag and survived but I was wondering how I might fare. Any advice for us older folks?

[@mikefaulkner10]

@@JRLNeal Hi John, I thought I'd replied already.... clearly exercise doesn't help my memory! You're only a few years ahead of me and still very active and that's the main thing. The bit that gets forgotten or not understood is the muscle mass loss due to reduction in the Endocrine (Hormone) system, that starts to reduce around 40 years at about 1% and increases to around 6% at 65. Clearly a lot of muscle, strength and metabolising power to loose a year. I lift weights in a structure training routine, 5/6 times a week to help keep the muscle, not easy if you like a lot of walking too, but you've got to do something. I've been going to gyms for fifty years, but made the decision before the pandemic, to get equipment at home and train there. That's fine if you know what you are doing, I'm a Physiotherapist of 26 years and treat a lot of patients that have injuries from bad training techniques, it's worth getting some advise from a knowledgeable personal trainer, not a youngster, or they'll just get you pounding the treadmill, that is ok for cardio, but doesn't help with muscle loss.

[@JRLNeal]

@@mikefaulkner10 thanks Mike for this very comprehensive answer. I’m sure it will be very useful for other people too. I try and keep reasonably fit mostly by gardening and cycling. Check out my KZbin channel, I just cycled about 12 miles today. I am restricted a little bit by mildly arthritic knees and a stiff shoulder, but I was very pleased that last week I managed Helm Crag without too much trouble, even the descent wasn’t too bad. My BMI is way out of kilter, apparently I ought to be 8 foot two. Shall I do stretching exercises?

[@mikefaulkner10]

@@JRLNeal Hi John, stretching is a great idea. It's use your full range of movement or loose it, arthritis or not. I have Osteoarthritis in my back, neck and pretty well everywhere from an active life, movement is key to controlling the spur growth and keeping the endorphins flowing, for pain suppression.
