Good job, boys. You picked a great spot for your first camp. I enjoyed a good night pitched here earlier in the year. It's one big learning curve, the more you do it, the easier and more enjoyable it becomes. Keep up the good work! P S. this is The Black Mountain (range), sometimes confused with The Black Mountains in the Eastern Beacons.

Hi Ryan, this is a pretty cool comment as I subscribed to your channel from one of of your first videos and taken a lot of inspiration from them! Great to see your journey is going so well. Thank you for the advice I really appreciate it! If you and the dog are able to teach me a few things one day, that would be superb👍🏻. Thank you again.

Great video, thats a nice camping spot for sure!

[@AdventureswithOlives]

Thank you! Really appreciate that comment! Honestly, couldn’t of picked a better camping spot, hopefully better organisation next time and we can enjoy it more 😂

Great video- love the location and the food looked great! I started wild camping myself early this year and have enjoyed quite a few adventures already- on my channel I made a video about this and what I learnt from my first wild camp (I went camping with a guy who has been doing it for decades!)- quite a steep learning curve! I found a few tips for you; Cook on a stove rather than a fire- some people can be a bit funny about fires, even if there is no trace left. I recommend good head torches too as well as good walking shoes. If you are going to camp in winter make sure you have a good sleeping mat with a high R value, and a good sleeping bag and down jacket. Subscribed to see more of your adventures!

Thank you very much! That’s awesome advice and we’ll definitely take note of that! I was really wondering about what kind of kit maybe needed for a winter camp as I don’t want the cold to effect my enjoyment on camps so I really appreciate the sleeping mat advice as well! Thank you, I’ve just checked out your channel and it looks great! I’ve subscribed too, looking forward to seeing your next video.

@@AdventureswithOlives Thank you! Next video in a week, hopefully wild camp high up on Dartmoor. You'll see me making mistakes but all part of the learning curve! Looking forward to your next

Herberts Quarry? Bivvied up around there a while ago.

[@AdventureswithOlives]

Yes spot on! Absolutely stunning there. What’s it like to bivvy? I’m hoping to do that some time in the future, looks awesome.
