WOW! I don't know how I missed this one. Stellar content!

[@pilgrim3387]

Great stuff. You had the right gear for the weather conditions. Cracking tent. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Thankyou, your comment is much appreciated. Thanks for watching and take care also 👍👍

[@vanessawanders]

Wow I can feel the cold from here! Great review and documenting through those conditions!

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Certainly was a cold adventure out, thanks for watching . 🙏💫

[@dezh6083]

Great Video of your adventure in the lakes. I can see this Channel taking off with loads of subscribers. Intresting and your passion for the outdoors is refreshing. Thanks.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Thanks for watching. Much appreciated. My channel is only small but i don't mind whatsoever, i enjoy getting out and why not share my adventures too thats my thinking. Thanks for leaving a comment also, atb. Matt 👍👍

[@andyh6017]

Another top film pal.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Cheers mate 👍👍👍

[@danfox9277]

I have to say mate, it looked stunning before the blizzard lol

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Oh the blizzard was lovely, i love snow coming in sideways stinging my face and eyes. Oh and spoiling my nice views too . Damn you blizzard...damn you 😁

[@Roobarb_Defender]

Happy new year Matt, another superb video - really enjoyed it cheers. Hope you are keeping well? By my rough reckoning you had 40mph wind speed at -3° so that would be a wind chill of around -28°C. Chilly! 🥶 Your dinner did look tasty though and I’m not a vegan… If you can maybe you should consider adding the “Buy my a coffee” option on your videos? I for one would happily buy you some beer for the enjoyment you have given me with your videos. Stay safe, Roo 👍🏻

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Happy new year to you too Roo 👍👍 It was damn cold thats for sure but thoroughly enjoyed none the less. I really appreciate the comment and it is good to know that people actually do enjoy the videos i make, if not but only a few, makes no odds to me though as its all about enjoyment and getting out for abit of an adventure and ill continue to do so and why not share it with others too. I may look into the buy me a coffee idea, never even knew it existed but if i was bought a beer it would be much appreciated and i would most certainly enjoy it on my wild camp adventures out. Again thankyou for the comment mate, atb and stay safe also..👍👍

[@thecampingastronomer8554]

Fantastic adventure. You looked very safe and comfortable in that tent. I am howling with jealousy 🤣🤣

[@residentoutdoors2303]

👍👍 cheers for the comment and watching, i was defiantely comfortable up there, as for safe, only as safe as long as the tent pegs stay in the bloody ground lol. 😅

[@niksgee3538]

Great video. I love your adventures. You go large.. Proper extreme camping.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Cheers I am glad you enjoyed my mini adventure .. loved the snowstorm.. makes things a little more challenging. Not been out for a while so will hopefully be out soon with some new gear I have been testing. 🫡👍

I just bought a Mountain 25 to replace my OLD just plain Mountain Tent on which the PU was deteriorating and seam tape was coming off. TNF said they couldn’t fix it and gave me credit. It’s a real beast! I haven’t used it yet, but I think I’ll like it better than the old one. Though I have a Marmot Hammer tent I really want to give a workout this winter. So many plans! Maybe I’ll find out if it’ll handle winds like yours. I’m in the mountains of northwest Maine, there’s one just outside town that’s 1109m and sees 40mph+ winds with wind chills in the -30F and lower range all the time. Great video, there’s nothing like taking whatever nature throws at you.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Hey, thanks for watching my video. Seam tape coming off is easy fix with seam seal.but pu coating is a much harder issue to deal with. The Nf mountain 25 definitely is a beast of a tent. My go to for any extreme weather conditions. Hope you have many great adventures with your new tent. Take care and all the best. 😁👍👍

[@philsmith2444]

@@residentoutdoors2303 I’d been told about TNF replacing floors on their tents before, so I figured I’d send the whole thing back and see if they’d retape the fly as well. I kinda wish I hadn’t unthinkingly sent the poles, too. The 20 stakes come in handy for other tents, and I even still have the foam spacers. No use for them with the Mountain 25, though.

[@bernardscott1783]

One of these tents on marketplace this week and nearly bought it, great tent and video mate 👍

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Cheers mate, yeah definitely a well built tent, will be throwing up another video soon of another trip out using this tent, its a heavy lump, but when the weather gets rough i am happy to have it thats for sure.

[@stealthandysteath1069]

Morning mate 👍. Happy New year ta both of ya 🎉🎉. Bloody lovely mate great camp. Nice pics. You take care of your self. Atb Andy. Thinking of giveing hammock camping a go this year.... Lol

Brilliant, sounds like a crazy mad adventure 😎👍, thats what life is all about, good choice of tent as it it tough and will take a hammering. Enjoy your trip , ATB. 👍

[@roymeetsworld1]

Loved everything about this video, even the deafening wind 😂

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Damn that wind..damn you wild wind 😅

[@JoshuaJohnsonOutdoors]

Man. Well that looked a bit dangerous. lol. It looks like the tent held up well though. Thanks for sharing the video, friend.

[@residentoutdoors2303]

More exciting , nowt like a good hot cup of tea then tackling a snow storm. 🫡😁

🤙Great video ❤

Thanks 👍👍🍻

[@DumpTrump4TRE45ON]

Wouldn't it be non Blood Pudding? Great video, great tent. Take care!

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Correct 😁 Non blood black pudding . Thanks for watching. Matt

[@MrMarkas3]

Is there anything you can do about the snow skirts to stop them flapping about and making so much noise ? Before I get one . Cheers

[@residentoutdoors2303]

I have seen videos with people who have used rocks to put on the snow skirt, i was contemplating attaching clips to the snow skirt so as i could peg them down to reduce the flapping, either clips or using metal ring clips to create pegging points, usually would be covered with snow.

[@terryhoffman5361]

I have been watching your adventures for about a year now. Wow. I have the North Face v25 tent. Just wondering what kind of pack are you using? I would like to see a video of you packing all your gear. Thanks

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Hi, great to know you have been watching my videos, answer to your question for the pack i use is the deuter aircontact 65+10 , this is a solid piece of kit that i have used for many years now. I will look into posting a video of how i pack my gear, also due out for some more camping adventures as i have been so busy this year that i have been unable to get out. Thanks again for watching, all the very best. Matt. 👍👍🍻🍻

[@MrMarkas3]

How do find it in the rain

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Hi, the tent handles the rain very well, i have used this in heavy rain with strong wind and i had no problem with staying dry, no issues. 👍💯

[@niksgee]

You so should have more subscribers matt. Some people would call that a disaster weather wise, but you seem to love it.... great video. Have you gone vegan recently? am sure old videos you were cooking steak

[@residentoutdoors2303]

Cheers matey 👍🍻🍻 i don't think i put up enough videos to merit high numbers of subscribers, i just do this for fun now, i don't class myself as vegan, i call it plant based. Cut out the meat, no more frying up steaks and knocking back beers up on the peaks for me.. Well i think i am due another wildcamp shortly, nothing better mate..😁🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@KontrolledKaoz]

@@residentoutdoors2303 Bro what kinda sleeping back did you use?

[@residentoutdoors2303]

@@KontrolledKaoz mountain equipmemt classic 1000 mate 👍👍

[@KontrolledKaoz]

@@residentoutdoors2303 what is the temperature rating in Fahrenheit? Is it necessary to get a sleeping back for instance like a North Face Inferno -40 for this type of camping? Im a novice camper and i currently own a Military Bivy that comes with 3 layers and supposedly its good for -40 for 4 hours. Dont know if these claims are accurate. I hate that its bulky and like that you can layer up or down lol. You can never be satisfied right???😛😛😛😛😛

[@residentoutdoors2303]

@@KontrolledKaoz they say -4 Fahrenheit good nights sleep. It is large enough to add a lightweight bag for layering too. I see no problem with layering bags depending on what temps you may encounter. I have never been cold in this bag yet and the quality is good. Rab also make good bags. I also own military sleep systems and although bulky they work really well when all layer systrms are put together. It all depends whay weight your willing to carry , how far etc etc.
