Wild Camp (Back Tor) Mld Duomid (Brocken Spectre)

[@gerrymcveigh]

Tim & Mandy, what a beautiful place to return to wild camping :-) Loved the dancing clouds and could watch them all day, the brocken spectre was also dancing by the looks of it ;-) And the tent was cool too :-)

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Gerry lol we really dropped on this time, we go up to the car park at the Bottom of Mam Tor almost every Friday in the camper and ive looked at back Tor many a time and thought about doing a camp, well the week the camper went into the garage we did it and it just happened to be the best weather we seen there in over a year! Went up yesterday again and it was back to normal (rain) Take care my friend :) Tim/Mandy

[@alanguthrie8415]

Hello my friend. Great stuff Tim have not seen this vid till now. Just got a Duomid it’s on the way Tim but need a inner now . Hard to get a hold of . Fantastic camp hope you and Mandy r keeping well . Take care from me o and Jess. But need a inner Lol 👍⛺️

[@amandasills66]

Brilliant footage Tim. What a awesome feeling to be surrounded by the cloud creeping in. Well trained dog xx Amanda, Daz

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Amanda I think this area was Daz's old stomping ground? Jess is the best collie we've had she's naturally obedient and you can trust her around sheep as long as you keep het fairly occupied lol :) Tim/Mandy

What an awesome place to camp. The cloud inversion was awesome. Captured beautifully, as always. Thanks for sharing. Atb Shaun

Hi Tim, Mandy, we spoke on ebay as you was looking into buying my tent recognised the name and watched your vid, Amazing photography, footage as most of the time you end up getting cloud and dank in the Peaks. Why 18 months of no wild camping god I couldn't go more than a month without it calling me to get out there. Just subbed ya as I want more lol All the best Colin and Mark from Ultra light nights

[@savedpurplecat]

Hi Colin thanks for watching mate, btw which tent was it I was looking at? My situation regarding wild camping has to do with a couple of very painful sciatic attacks that lasted months, the last was this last Christmas and believe it or not it takes that long to get back the confidence to carry a weight on my back, also Mandy now prefers the campervan lol, but your right there is absolutely nothing to replace the buzz and peace of pitching up on top of a fell, and boy do I miss it, thanks the sub buddy, will sub you too :) Tim/Mandy

[@HairlessBiker]

@@savedpurplecat wow Tim, sounds like you have been through the wars!! Keeo doung your physiotherapy mateI think it was either my Scarp1 or the cuben duimid. Like you I have niggle etc abd have gone lightweight fio that reason. And it is wirking wellapart frim no money left in my wallet lol. Yeah my Mrs is the same a glamper. We will be looking into a vw campervan maybe end of 2020 . I wush you goid heakth and keep them ciming as you have a goid eye for it..

[@savedpurplecat]

@@HairlessBiker Thanks Colin btw Scarp 1 what a fantastic tent!

Another cracking video great drone shots, keep em coming 👍

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Carl, was great to get out in the fresh air on a hill :) Tim

[@JohnKirkup]

Perfectly shot Tim ..Not a bad tent too first time I've seen them, nice !! ..Thanks for sharing

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks John it was a pleasure to be there that morning, yes the tent has some potential mate :) Tim/Mandy

[@AndrewBeavers]

Amazing that Tim the cinema photography is stunning & the timelapse inversions rolling over the great ridge is great to see.always thought about camping on back tor but just never got round to it.such a stunning place the peak especially round there in those conditions,experienced it many times.that MLD looks the business,I like the look of em but I'm not too sure on how the doors don't go to the floor,other than that they look great.tfs mate.Andy.

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Andrew we camp in our camper at the bottom of Mam Tor and Ive often looked at Back Tor and thought about doing a wild camp, but I didn't expect such a glorious display with the cloud inversion etc, I know exactly what you mean about the DuoMid, that front beak is a few inches off the ground, you have to have a winterised inner in to help, the oook works is perfect, I will try it out at some point in bad conditions just to see what its like. Btw if you ever do get in contact with Chris, please remember me to him, he's a real interesting bloke :) Tim/Mandy

[@Stampistuta]

Nice looking tent that Tim. Will look into them.

[@savedpurplecat]

Cracking tent very light and very strong too :) Tim

[@Dazck9s]

Great shots of the views and clouds... hope you are well mate atb Daz

[@savedpurplecat]

Hi Daz grateful for you stopping by matey, it was great to get out on a fell again mate, trying to build my fitness up again, not ready for any big ones yet but loving it :) Tim/Mandy

[@adopancia7445]

Gorgeous color.

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks :) Tim/Mandy

[@wasdalemanexploringoutdoor5137]

Great to see you both out once again, I love the colour of the tent for all the same reasons but I feel like I should blend in so I tend to pick green. My wife Kir likes the odd wild camp but I think she loves the double bed and heating of the caravan more! All the best.

[@savedpurplecat]

lol that sounds very much like Mandy, ours has been off the road for three weeks, hence the wild camp lol, we tried to go out again last Friday but gave up, (weather not good) I must say it sounds a bit soft but I do love the comfort of a camper these days, colour wise I like a contrast between foreground and back ground for photographic reasons only, your right makes much more sense to not be seen, thanks for watching :) Tim/Mandy

[@JohnnyBareToes2]

What an amazing place ! Some wonderful shots, thanks for sharing !

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks for watching, it really is a bit of a hidden gem :) Tim/Mandy

[@Valhalla764]

Fantastic video and the low cloud great for a time lapse cheers Tim

[@savedpurplecat]

Was a lovely surprise Kenny :)

[@rlee1403]

Fantastic footage and clever editing. Would rather watch one of your short videos than all of these wildcamping, beer swilling, equipment naming videos put together.

[@savedpurplecat]

Lol I know what you mean, I must admit I am attracted to the shorter videos myself, thanks for stopping by :) Tim/Mandy

[@yoeljimenez9487]

Wow beautifull footage

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Yoel :) Tim

[@alanguthrie8415]

Great stuff Tim nice 1 👍 great little tent too

[@savedpurplecat]

Hi Alan thanks for watching matey, lovely tent, very well built and judging by other reviews very strong in high winds :) Tim/Mandy

[@WyeExplorer]

A very surprising Broken Spectre Tim. The full light spectrum and the clouds did a fine job as did you in filming it. I have a Lunar Solo, which is similar design and have used it many times over the years. I agree it is a wonderful design. Any how, good going. Mark

[@savedpurplecat]

Hi Mark it really was a surprise we've had a few engine probs with the transit so I convinced Mandy to come on a wild camp and wow what a treat we had, I hope your doing well my friend, Lunar solo I think I've seen you out in that Mark, is it a little teepee style? They a such a simple/strong design. I bought this with the view of doing some lightweight camps and then had another sciatic attack, horrible mate, but thank God its getting better now :) Tim/Mandy

[@WyeExplorer]

@@savedpurplecat A blessing in disguise I think they call that Tim - you should know! Yeah they are becoming popular these tarp tents. I like them. Well, good you got out but sorry to hear about your back. I wish you future health. As for me I just had my 3rd birthday without Paul and felt sick all day. It's still been hard going but there is good.

[@BorderRambler]

Beautifully filmed inversion , the tent really does stand out in the video . loved it atb Dave.

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks Dave appreciate you dropping by :) Tim/Mandy

[@shaunbades2889]

Great to see you back out (heard that somewhere before) top class filming.

[@savedpurplecat]

Lol thanks Shaun nice to be out on a hill again :) Tim/Mandy

[@malajusted1]

Beautifully shot as always - looked like a decent pitch... Then you zoomed out using the drone. 🙄 Enough evidence of a land slip there to make me choose another spot 🤣🤣 what a morning though!

[@savedpurplecat]

haha yes it was a lot closer to that land slip than I thought and I only realised how close looking at the drone footage, but it was a fantastic spot I have to say and the cloud inversion was a privilege to behold, thanks a lot for watching :) Tim/Mandy

[@garnforaratch]

Fab vid as always.. thank you for sharing.. absolutely fantastic :):)

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks for dropping by, its been a while since we went out for a camp and I have to say absence makes the heart grow fonder, really enjoyable, hope you guys are keeping well :) Tim/Mandy

Hi Tim, Superb video again mate, Tim your choice of music is first class, could I ask where you get your music from. Thank Gary

Sorry for late reply Gary just on our holidays, thanks for your kind comments I like to use music by Iona it’s a Celtic Christian band full of talented musicians thanks Tim/Mandy

savedpurplecat Thanks Tim and Mandy, Really enjoyed your videos, have a great holiday. Thanks Gary

[@blackdogwildtrails3123]

Lovely footage there. The drone footage especially really captured the beauty of the place. Over 40 years spent in the mountains and I've yet to see a Brocken Spectre! It looked very quiet for the peak district which I'm only now just getting to know as my eldest now lives in Mobberley about half an hour from the White Peak. A lot different to here in north Wales but lovely all the same. BTW...what was the tent again? Didn't quite get the different outer and inner set up?

[@savedpurplecat]

Thanks yes we pitched the tent at about 9pm and were gone for about 7am so not too many people, the guy from the local farm came up and had a chat with us, he's a keen photographer so no problems. We've been coming up to this area in the van almost every Friday night for over a year now, its only 45 mins from where we live and very very pleasant. The tent is a Mountain Laurel designs Duo mid, very strong tent, ive yet to test that out myself though, the inner is an oookworks inner made by a guy called shaun who makes custom inners, he's very good. North Wales is Awesome wish I was closer, you live in a great area :) Tim/Mandy
