“Don’t you get nervous?” Stealthy Tarp Camping in the Woods | Lake District Wild Camp

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks so much for watching ☕ I hope you enjoyed coming along on this night out in the woods?🦉 Please note, some of the native woodland and foliage shots are filmed at a separate location. This is due to two reasons - firstly, because my tripod broke while filming and so I had to strap my phone to the pole with a bit of tarp line😅It worked in a jiffy but wasn't ideal for lots of hiking about. Secondly, I wanted to share some seasonal shots. I choose to camp at a forest that was largely non-native plantation as I felt this would be least obtrusive. With the shots of native woodland, Cam was on the lead so that he didn't trample any bluebells etc or disturb ground nesting birds. I checked beforehand to make sure he was allowed off the lead during this time of year at the primary location. I’m not advocating solo hiking and camping, I’m just sharing my personal perspective in my quiet little corner of the Shire and doing what I feel is within my comfort zone. Obviously safety varies wildly based on multiple factors, so it’s on each of us to risk assess our own situation. I don't share pinpoint exact locations of my wild camps as I don't feel it's my place to do so. Spending time exploring the landscape to find your personal pitch is very much part of the process for me. When we each do this, it avoids creating hotspots and deters fly campers who don't know how to navigate and have little respect for the countryside. --------------- AD | Thanks so much to the sponsor of this video!

(Personal note on this lowland camp - I enjoy being out in nature at all hours, whether that’s walking, star gazing or attempts at astrophotography. I feel that a simple tarp offers unobtrusive protection in the woods as I rest. I wouldn't do a lowland wild camp anywhere that would be visually obtrusive or on land that wasn't open to the public). 🚮Leave no litter - this includes not burying any litter and removing other people's if you find it. ❌Don't light any fires, even if there is evidence that fires might have been lit. ⏳Stay for only one night. 🏕Keep groups very small - only one or two tents. 👀Camp as unobtrusively as possible with inconspicuous tents which blend in. 🌿Leave the campsite as you would want to find it. 🎒Carry out everything you carried in. 🩸Carry out tampons and sanitary towels. Burying them doesn't work as animals dig them up again. 🌾Choose a dry pitch rather than digging drainage ditches around a tent or moving boulders. 🕳Perform toilet duties at least 30 metres from water and bury the results with a trowel. 🐑At all times, help protect the environment and respect other visitors and communities. ✌Wherever you pitch, please remember that the landowners or their representatives have the legal right to order you to break camp and move on.

He did a good few km, nothing crazy. I won't put the exact distance for home privacy reasons as I posted his missing location on social media at the time. He did so well though considering he had to get over walls/fences/gates, through a sheep field and on the road too. People tried to stop him but he was on a mission!

[@johnreyes1749]

Hello Chole thank you for sharing your adventure, Cam is so calm and his devotion to you is on full display. I have been going for short hikes in the hills and the canyons near me, the mountain range by me are the Santa Anna’s which was populated by indigenous people for thousands of years but the Spanish came and brought Christianity and then Mexico took over California and then eventually settlers came west and practically the indigenous people were slaughtered and many of the canyons have paranormal activity, there is one canyon that creeps me out and that’s Black Star Canyon, my senses are like a tripwire. Do you ever experience any paranormal and have that feeling that something is not right🤔anyway Chole I would love to experience an occasional midge over a rattlesnake or a mountain lion and being bit to death by ticks. Have a great day Chole👍🏻

@@FablesandFells. Yes mankind’s history is brutal, hiking here can be therapeutic but also dangerous because of the wildlife, as for being a skeptic I can understand, being a former serviceman and your husband can attest to this, our senses our heightened because of training and the situation you are in.

Hi Chloe, New to your channel, loved the birdsong. I'd love to end up living somewhere with a daily chorus like that. Robins are so brave, especially if you reward them with a crumb or two. You mentioned camping alone versus with others, I've been looking for a club/group that start off together but then pitch a few hundred yards apart so you get that solo feel. Cheers Graham

[@FablesandFells]

Oh I'm sure you can find some new friends in wild camping groups on FB etc. I'm not sure if there will be wild camping groups, as the ethos is to spread out and avoid pitching lots of tents in the same spot, but I'm sure there's support out there. There's also 'nearly wild' campsites that could help bridge the gap.

Another lovely video Chloe. Those drone shots are awesome 👍

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you 🙏

[@andyttfn]

Glad to see you’re a bit better. I remember you mentioning what happened, very traumatic

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks Andy, the first time I went out after it happened we nearly jumped a wall when a big dog ran over to us miles away from its owner 🙈 The heartbeat is gradually coming down day by day 😅

[@R-Dub_]

Wonderful video, informative and chill. Perfect.

Do it while you can it’s getting very busy in the Peak District. Lots of folks knocking about in my haunts where I’ve never seen folk before. In40 years I’ve never seen it so busy Nowhere is safe now

[@FablesandFells]

Yes I think because it's so easy to access in the Peak. The more of a walk in, especially uphill, the less people there are!

[@js.fuller]

Fabulous video

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks 🙏

A fallen tree can really help, using the area for cover. I use midge nets & camo nets so I'm okay there. Yes finding the spots on way on treks or mtb rides in my case. Having the dog gives you some protection. Oh didn't know your dog got attacked sorry to hear. The tracker is a brilliant idea. Nice music - fitting for the video. There is no such thing as bad dogs only bad owners. That's a cute wee dog.

[@FablesandFells]

Thank you, he is a cutie 🐾

[@andrewnewby1918]

Glad you’re happier about being out since the difficult experience you went through concerning your dog. What type of tarp are you using? Loved the video

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks, it's the Trekmates square tarp 😊

Beautiful nature shots, lovely music selection, well done 🙂

Thank you 😊

I’m a little late in seeing this. Love your videos. Here in Montana nobody would go backpacking without carrying bear spray. I don’t even know if they sell that in the UK but it’s basically pepper spray. I’m sure it would work on aggressive dogs. Keep well.

[@FablesandFells]

Thanks for the thought. The police have PAVA but any sprays like that are illegal for the general public.

[@rajeshchauhan41]

So cute ❤

[@chasdart7298]

Great video, thank you. Also, are spaniels just the greatest medium sized dogs ever? No need to answer, they just are!

[@FablesandFells]

Haha they are so funny aren't they!
