Love the tarp setup, might pinch that setup idea for my next bivi camp 😎

Nice quiet spot up there Pete...well done on getting out with your bad hip

I totally recommend that area. The views at dawn were amazing of the Howgills. There’s a Romano-British settlement not far from the pitch, which I’d like to see. Thanks for watching and commenting. Atb

Great spot that UP, tucked up against the limestone and near that tree. It's a splendid part of the world that. I was hoping to get up to Westmorland this week but the weather forecast is crap! 😭

Cheers bud. The view of the Howgills were gorgeous. I want to have a camp near the Romano-British settlement up there. Hope you and yours are well. Atb

Hi and nice camp out Great how the bivy was dry I can’t use Alpkit stuff it just gets soaked, I must give off a lot of heat Cheers

I never seem to have condensation probs. I’m a cold sleeper though. The Nemo bag was good. I found out when I got home, that I had left the gills (gussets on both sides of the bag) open so it would have been better if they were closed. Lovely quality bag and 400 gms lighter than my winter down bag. I like the mesh behind and I front of your head on the Elan,gives good airflow where your warm breath is exhaling. That self inflating mat was comfy too, it’s once a short one. Again a weight saving on the xtherm. Lovely camp that was. Thanks for watching and commenting. Atb
