Dartmoor Wild Camp and New Kit Test

[@SteveDiment]

Love the kit reviews Rob, when you find a genuine replacement for the Vango I’d love to know. Keep us posted!! Great to meet you, keep up the good work, you’re a natural 😉

Thank you Steve, It was lovely to meet you today. Check out the OEX Bobcat 1 Person Tent, it's the closest I've seen so far. Safe travels!

Hi Rob, I know this is an obvious comment, but as someone who through age (66) and health no longer does any serious walking I’m always amazed by the nifty gear available today: the wee folding cup for example and those camp slip on shoes.

Absolutely Mark, what is available today has come leaps and bounds since I first ever went camping!

Hi, like the weight of those tents but as an older hiker I'm worried about being able to get under it and then into a sleeping bag.

[@WalkingDevon]

Yeah it's very low, it was my first pitch though and while editing the video I did wonder if I brought the sides in a little and lengthened the pole if it would make it easier to get into. I'll give it a go next time and without the inner but I didn't find it easy myself but like you, I liked the weight of it.

Spent many a night on dartmoor ehen I was in the paras

Here I am complaining of a 14kg backpack weight, I bet you'd have loved one that light in the Paras.

That backpack looks truly dreadful!!

[@WalkingDevon]

Why? I've used it a number of times now, it's very comfortable, well made and fits me perfectly.
