Solo Camping in Heavy Rain and Winds in the Mountains | Trangia Cooking | Hilleberg Soulo

[@princesshalyne1111]

Hi.🌹Your wife should start watching the videos of your solo camping adventures; because, if my husband solo camped out in this weather with no one around I would kick his arse when he got home. 😊❤🌹 Be safe and continue to have fun, though. I like your video posts.🌹Take care.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

😆👍 She is never thrilled but I make sure I message her with my Garmin when I get to camp to let her know everything is ok. Really appreciate the support. 🙏👍

A celebration of water in every possible form. Thank you!

😀 it definitely felt like a theme in this video! Thanks for watching Lynette!

[@Prashant.Khapane]

Man, hats off to you. Even in the best conditions I go for hydrated meals in the mountains. That looks delicious. Another great outing. Soulo did well.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Nothing wrong with a dehydrated meal! I typically cook because I enjoy it and it gives me something to do. Especially in the autumn and winter months when it gets dark so early! Love the Soulo. Appreciate you watching! ATB

[@maggi666]

We have watched your video and boy, what an ultra wet camp and hike it was. Hats off to you for being out there in such horrible conditions. Thank you, we were glued to it and your meal looked amazing as always. We've had a fantastic hike today in the peaks. We had rolling clouds on the distant peaks, cloud inversion on our way home over Leek town and beautiful sunshine where we were hiking. Almost 6 miles of such beauty.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Thanks Maggi! Trips like this are fun but they also really make you grateful for those nice calm days when you are not stuck inside the tent once you setup camp! Sounds like you two had a really nice day in the Peaks. I need to get up there again. It’s a beautiful area. All the best!

It always amazes me that people make a big deal of being able to start a fire with a bit of moss and two twigs and go out of their way to say how close nature they feel -and then use their mobile phone/sat nav/high-tech knife/high tech tent/hi-tech clothing/high-end cooking tools, food and utensils etc. . Oh that I could survive with such primitive tools

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

@@michaelkenny8540 haha yeah I get that! I think most people that practice those techniques though are just curious to learn other more primitive methods and just have fun, myself included. Personally just going out for a peaceful camp, coffee or cook in the woods/mountains is the main goal 😀. I do find that having that knowledge really does help when something else may not work or if you forget something at home! For instance, knowing how to use a compass and a map, properly is a great skill, and depending on where you’re going, a life saving skill. Knowing how to use one will never keep me from leaving my Garmin GPS at home though 😂😂 . Have a great weekend Michael! ATB

[@tomfenn7149]

I watched this whole video the first time around with the subtitles on while listening to Hosanna Mantra by Popul Vuh, which goes perfectly btw, and is the exact same length of the video. But I didn't realise because of the subtitles that you are American (assumed British as you are in the Lake District), and when you kept referring to 'pants' I automatically assumed you were referring to your 'underpants'!! LOL! But great video and so good to watch someone who can actually cook, and cook Ramen too. It gets so boring watching so many others just pour boiling water into a prepack dehydrated meal. Trangier cooking is the best, and it brought back so many great memories of going camping and cooking myself. PS that coffee pod is brilliant! Approve!

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Love the thoughtful comment Tom! I tried listening to Hosanna Mantra and it does go nicely. I sometime like to add subtle music in the background of some of my videos. Especially in the hiking segments. I’ve lived here in the UK going on 3 years now and I still make the mistake of saying pants instead of trousers sometimes. 😂 I have had some particularly awkward conversations and looks at my children’s school which elicited a good laugh. Glad you liked the cooking. I enjoy cooking at home so it’s nice to relax and cook a nice meal when I’m out for a camp as well! It’s also always fun to use my cooking gear. I love the trangia 27. Such a good cook kit. Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment! All the best!

Kinda adventure I would love to do. The rain and the wind is my ASMR. Thanks for the awesome video man. From Borneo Malaysia.

It is always fun to get the full experience within the elements on a camp like this. I mainly appreciate having the paths and mountains to myself as not many people go out in these conditions. Thanks for watching!

[@dougmiller6859]

Another great video. The Lake District is strangely compelling in a barren sort of way, maybe it is the elements battering you all the time? There are some areas like this out here in Oregon…but we also have snow capped mountains and tons of trees…😜 with the water table basically at surface level, how do you dig cat holes to perform necessary functions? Or, are you super hard core LNT? I am wondering why your viewer base is not a lot bigger, the production value of these videos is excellent…

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

There is a strange beauty to the Lake District. I really enjoy the rock formations and contours of the land. Reminds me of being above the tree line with a bit more green. Fortunately there are plenty of woodlands to explore further south where I live when I want to be among the trees. The lack of trees here definitely contributes to dealing with the elements head on a bit more but I’m enjoying it. As for using the toilet I honestly just try to hold it until I can get to a proper bathroom otherwise I have a WAG bag with me. And if the conditions are horrendous outside the tent I can comfortably use it protected from the elements. I don’t worry too much about subscribers numbers. I love camping and photography so these are just my hobbies and I would be doing them anyways. Thats why I prioritize family and only make videos when I can. Which right now is unfortunately only once a month. But this still remains fun for me and that’s the most important thing 👍. Really appreciate the comment! ATB

Hey. Great video. Looked like a great decisiomn to go with Plan B. And that meal was like something out of Masterchef! Fair play to you. I'm a boil in the bag man myself. Real Turmat is especially good. But that hot meal of yours is next level stuff altogether!! With the sock dilemma you asked yourself at the end, would you not consider leaving a complete set/change of dry clothes in the car? Regards Wadi.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Thanks! I will usually use a dehydrated meal if I am going on a camping trip while traveling or if I am going on a multi day trip. Real Turmats are awesome! Definitely worth the cost in my opinion! Two pairs of socks usually does me fine but after this trip I will definitely be leaving a third set in the car! I went ahead and just kept the dry socks on and they remained dry in my boot until nearly back to the car but I had to go through a section of the footpath which was underwater by morning … so alas they soaked through again 🤣 so yeah the third set would have been nice!

Yes you are correct!

However, after the black label version came out I also then heard her specify that it needed to be put last as the booklet says 😂.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Thanks it was a really nice meal on a cold rainy evening 👍. Putting the burner in the kettle has not affected the taste of the water. However, I am certain that my Trangia does not leak. I have heard from some that there’s has. So if you put it in the kettle, it’s best to keep it in a container. If you buy a Trangia cook set it actually comes in a plastic bag just in case it does develop a leak. Appreciate the comment! ATB

Thanks! Yes this is a Nemo Tensor Insulated Regular Wide pad. I’ve had it for years now and I really love it.

What was the puffy jacket you’re wearing? Is it any good? I saw a review recently where there was little or no difference with a Rab and a Decathlon. The Rab cost about 4 times more though!

[@RollrightKnights]

So do you find the G10 fabric wets out eventually? I take it you didn't have waterproof trousers over your hiking trousers?

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

I’ve found the water resistance of my G1000 garments really depends on how recently and how much I’ve waxed them prior to use in wet conditions. I actually had a g1000 Keb jacket on for the hike in and traditional 2.5 layer waterproof trousers over my g1000 Keb trousers. What I found quite interesting was the G 1000 jacket wetted out around the same time that the waterproof trousers wetted out which soaked my trousers underneath. Both were able to keep me dry for the 4 - 4.5 miles I was hiking in the rain prior to setting up camp. It was that last really windy heavy downpour as I was setting up the tent when water soaked through them both. This was, however, the first time that water has penetrated my waterproof trousers. I had a second thin waterproof jacket that I wore for the hike back and that also soaked through eventually in similar conditions towards the end of the hike back to the car. I’m really glad you asked this question because I think this trip made me even more impressed with G 1000s water resistance and the ability to change its water repellency with Greenland wax. I often choose to use it in rainy conditions because it usually keeps me dry and I find it a much more breathable material. I expected the G 1000 to wet out eventually but I’ve been thinking a lot about why my waterproof thin jacket and trousers soaked through! Overtime those materials can lose some of their water repellency, but sticking them in the dryer for a brief period usually brings it back. Haha sorry for the long response I guess I am just thinking out loud! 😂 So in short, yes g1000 does wet out eventually and I did have traditional waterproof trousers over my g1000 hiking trousers and they both soaked through. Again sorry for the long response. All the best!

[@RollrightKnights]

@@GoingSoloOutdoors thanks for detailed response. Yes G1000, my mistake. I've found waterproof (over) trousers to be very hit and miss, and is you say they do require re-proofing.

@@RollrightKnights after this hike, I stuck my waterproofs in the dryer as recommended, and water does seem to be beading off very well. I usually don’t like my waterproofs for long hikes because I find unless it’s really cold, I sweat so much it’s nearly pointless. 😂. I’d love to try the Fjallraven Keb Eco-Shell jacket but 500 quid is a bit out of my price range for just a jacket. But the material sounds cool!

[@RollrightKnights]

@@GoingSoloOutdoors I'll check it out. I have a Fjällräven cap which I plan on waxing too. I bought it because when wearing a jacket hood the peak will hopefully keep the hood in place a little. Incidentally, I'm sure you probably do this, but with smaller items at least, you can get them fairly dry overnight by putting them in the sleeping bag with you, as long as they're not actually wet, that is really not pleasant! Love your shooting style and it's also nice to not have music! Cheers ATB, Jason ✊

Will you kindly share your Ramen recipe? It looked wonderful. Thanks for the great video.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

I would but I really can’t give you specific measurements as I have yet to properly measure out everything myself. I typically cook to taste. I added a list of ingredients in the video but if memory serves it was around a tsp for each of the spices used to create the broth but I can’t be certain. Now that I’m happy with the recipe though, next time I make it I will start to measure things so that it is consistent. The majority of the process is pretty straightforward as seen in the video. It’s really making that broth tasty that can be the tricky part. Sorry if that wasn’t much 😔. Really appreciate you watching and I would still encourage you to give it a try. Experimenting is the fun part! ATB

[@hunterthompson8450]

Dude recently subscribed to the channel and loving your vids. Just a question, how much does your backpack weight with a tent and a full trangia with food for an overnight? Also can you cook a complete ramen on just one burner? thanks PS also that's one of the best ramens I've seen in my life.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Really glad to hear that you’re liking the vids! I don’t remember exactly how much it weighted for this trip but I always obey the 20% rule. I believe with this load out it was around 27-28lbs. But that’s with anywhere from 5 to 10 pounds in just camera equipment. So I’m well below a comfortable weight. I also like using this backpack because at 45 L you really can’t pack too much. Yes for this meal I did use just one full trangia. I actually cut it from the video but I mention how incredible the stove is. I’m a big fan! Glad you liked the Ramen. I’ve worked a long time trying to make it just right and I do believe this one was a winner. Really great on a chilly evening! Thanks again for the support and taking the time to comment! ATB

[@Pargie81]

I always wondered about cooking with my trangia in a small vestibule. I want to but a soulo but I didn't think it would work. I even noticed you putting hot pans onto the footprint and it doesn't matter? Great video except you have just cost me £800 😂

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

The vestibule is not huge in the Soulo but there is definitely space to cook if the weather is unsuitable for cooking outside the tent. I placed the cooked chicken on a cool pan before placing it on the footprint. I definitely wouldn’t recommend placing a pan that was just used for cooking directly on the footprint it as it could definitely destroy it. Haha sorry not trying to encourage big purchases! If you don’t find yourself in these conditions often and you can choose another day for a camp, the Soulo is definitely overkill for most camps! It’s definitely an investment and in less than favorable conditions it’s definitely a tent. It’s popular for good reason 👍. Really appreciate you watching the video and taking the time to comment!

9:14 Also open your poles up first before exposing your tent to the elements.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

👍 solid advice … but better advice would be to stop trying to film yourself when the sky is falling 🤣. All jokes aside, normally I roll the tent out and stake it down over an area first because I’m not always positive it will fit between the rocks in a particular area. If I was using an inner pitch first tent, getting the poles ready first would be absolutely mandatory! Luckily these single pitch tents normally stay dry inside for me while pitching in the rain as mostly the fly is exposed. Usually it’s not until I open the door that the elements flood in. But yeah poles first is a great idea 👍. Especially if you know for sure your tent will fit a space!

Great food ideas, but as a chef, only use sesame oil to season at the end of your dish. Otherwise great fresh ideas.

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

Thanks but I respectfully disagree chef. When I am camping and only bringing the one oil for a dish like this it works very well well for cooking as a neutral oil and only adds flavor 👍

@@GoingSoloOutdoors I understand that you have your manage your weight, and the sesame oil works for you. But again, sesame oil is not meant for cooking, but seasoning, so when you try your recipes for your family. I look forward to seeing some more of your camp food.
