WINTER Wild CAMPING in SNOW and RAIN | Lanshan 2 Pro

[@themunrobagger]

Brilliant stripey Great spot for a wildcamp. And another great cookery lesson. Great meet up and smashing drone footage 👍👍👍

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Thanks a lot Tam! I quite like cooking and when the trip allows it no reason to eat my bag pasta instead of a proper meal 😎👍 Thanks Stripey

[@sams5049]

Nice video, would be a lovely little spot for hammock setup as-well 😉. Im going to have to try that “upside down pizza” you made, looked great.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Thanks Sam! Easy and tasty 😊👍

[@michaelschmitzerle2587]

Another excellent video Mr. Stripy👍

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Thanks a lot Michael!

[@PAADVENTURES1]

Yes! Brilliant 👍👍. Some great images there stripey and nice wee drone section. Loved the upside down pizza. Looking forward to a drier, warmer camp the next time. Cheers mate. Paul

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers Paul, was a great wee outing and really appreciated to meet you in person😊👍. Can't wait for a bit of a weather change, don't mind which direction but we should definitely do another camp/tour together! Thanks Stripey

[@wulliescottishoutdoors]

Another good wee video mate 👌 keep up the great work. Atb Wullie ✊🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@thisismylaine]

That looked like a cold camp. I saw you in monty’s video so it was good to see it from your side too. Bad luck with the sleeping pad!

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi ThisIsMyLaine! Yeah was quite a pleasant surprise to meet Monty as well - had a good banter that night. The way Monty came was actually our way back as the river was so swollen that we couldn't cross it anymore from all the meltwater 😎. Happens with the sleeping pad, good that it was in the morning 😂. Therm-a-rest already shipped me a new one so hopefully I'll have it for the weekend 🤞 Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@BLOTOUTDOORSSHOW]

Great video Stripey, love your videos man 👏 Looked like a great place to camp and your food was very nice 😋 Good stuff mate, all the best Chris 👍

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Thank you very much Chris👋 Good sheltered and interesting spot history wise but to be honest I prefer places where I get a better view more 😉😃. Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@magicworldbyjorg]

..cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…

[@murchiesmountains2820]

Great video Stripey as usual👌🏻😁👍..What an adventure we had on the Sunday 😉😀

[@murchiesmountains2820]

The Bin Burn looks so tame 😂

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers buddy, yeah the way back was quite an adventure 😂😂😂

[@AirdrieRambler]

I was wakened at some point by the sound of an aircraft overhead and flashing lights. Did either of you hear it?

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Jepp I did, was wondering if they were looking for Robert again 😂😂😂

[@d3adandt0ast3d]

I found your channel recently and I LOVE seeing where you go! Will be continuing to follow!

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Thank you very much Phil! Definitely plenty to explore/discover here in Scotland. Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@treklinda1309]

This pizza looks gourgeous!

[@serkd37]

Hi Stripey. Nice camp. I ordered the Danish Endurance socks which I’ll be trying next week on my next camp. And I also noticed you were using a fire pit in this video which I just bought and will try next week too. It looks really good. Good to see you laughing and seeing the funny side about the Thermarest! Serk

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Seek! Hope you like the socks as much as I do👍. Yeah the fire pit is a need thing, it is actually Roberts and I think it is very useful for not leaving burned ground or on really wet ground what we had. The best off it is that you can use the heat also from underneath the pit for getting warm feet, drying,.... obviously carefully. Yeah I mean there is nothing to change about the xlite no reason to let it ruin my day 😂👍 Thanks for watching mate! ATB Stripey

[@serkd37]

@@StripeyHatGuy Oh yes, I didn’t think about using the fire pits warmth from underneath, good tip Stripey! Look forward to your next video. All the best

[@johngillespie2686]

Hi stripey Great video as usual Great upside-down pizza hope your getting mat replaced love your airiel shots of camp good to see you out with monty and gang well done take care

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers John! Simple and delicious is always good 😊. Yeah nice to meet some other KZbinrs which I haven't seen before - interesting to see the person behind the videos - great guys! ATB Stripey

[@MaliceGLA]

Lovely video Stripey! 👏👏👏

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers mate! 👋☺️ ATB Stripey

[@WalkWithWallace]

Nice one Stripey, that's a stellar cast you were out with. Did you contact Thermarest for a replacement mat?

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers mate 😎👍. Yeah I contacted them and after sending them proof that I cut of the valve the send me straight away a new one...as today was/is the next shipment to the UK I hope I will have it for the weekend - for sure next one 😉.

[@WalkWithWallace]

@@StripeyHatGuy excellent. Great service. 😁 👍🏻

[@StripeyHatGuy]

yeah absolutely. I am a therm-a-reat customer for roughly 17 years and I never had an issue with the service/replacement/repair of my stuff. Still a bit of disappointed as it is my second xlite in one season and this shouldn't happen for an article this expensive!

[@TheMadmacs]

good to see a full team turning out. hey there was a bang about 2:55am, recently, media said it was thunder....

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hahaha or a therm-a-rest 😂😂😂 Thanks Madmacs FPV!

[@Kev_Russ]

Great wee snowy camp Stripey. That was like a dream team of You Tubers 😉 that pizza looked delicious 😋 #teamlanshan

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Cheers Kev! Yeah was for sure the right decision to go locally as the wind arrived earlier - can only imagine how it would have been in the Highlands... ATB Stripey

[@EventyrsorenDenmark]

Always love the winter trips.Great one. 🙂🙂🙂

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Yeah absolutely mate! Thanks a lot. ATB Stripey

[@whenigotothemountains1203]

Nice one stripey. Good to see you out with Paul. Shame about the mat. Gordon

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Gordon! Definitely, Paul is a really nice person. Sometimes it just happens that gear breaks, just annoying when it is always the same bit of kit 😂👍 ATB Stripey

[@unclepeteswildadventures]

I know three other people who’s Thermarest has burst. Two of them they had two different bursts! BTW Stripey, you should visit the Lake District. 😄

[@StripeyHatGuy]

I hope my 3rd one is better 😎. Yeah the Lake District is a beautiful area, was there only once before...next time when I am closer I am definitely considering it 👍 Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@AirdrieRambler]

Great video Stripey, lovely drone footage too. Really sets the scene for what was quite an enclosed wee camp. That river crossing looked quite tricky on the way in, I take it you couldn't get back that way?

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi James, thank you very much. Really great meeting you! Yeah on the way back we had to go the same way you went... Todpole Carpark...as Meikle burn was to swollen 😂 ATB Stripey

[@thelifeofbrian282]

Good on you all for getting out and braving the elements, nice to see what gear everyone is using although I'm a bit concerned as I also have the thermarest neolite Stripey 😨 BTW the upside down pizza 🍕 looked yummy 😋 atb Brian 👍

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Brian, thanks a lot. I don't think that you need to be concerned tbh. There are thousands of xlites outside and only a very small amount are faulty. I just had twice bad luck I assume 🤞 ATB Stripey

[@johnscot1]

Did you find them OK? After a jaunt up Meikle Bin with mate Andy, we went for a tour of the woods (😅) before finding the Machar Stones.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi John! Yeah it wasn't to bad actually - Paul was our 'guide' and he did an excellent job 👍. We had quite a tour de woods the next day as the river (Meikle burn) was to swollen to cross 🙈 Really interesting part of the Campsies 👍 ATB Stripey

[@laddaevolta]

Is lanshan 2 pro cosy for 2 person? both 170cm height. Backpack would leave under vestibule

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Ladda, yes 2 people will fit. It will be cosy but definitely possible. Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@grant666uk]

Hi mate. Just subbed to your channel. Been planning a trip to this location for ages. It's only a 30 min drive from my house. How easy are the stones to find. Did you have map coordinates or did you use a GPX file ? They seem quite hard to find. Thanks.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

The stones are pretty straight forward from my point of view. megalithix.wordpress.com/2016/01/11/machar-stones/ provides a grid reference which makes it fairly easy 👍

[@grant666uk]

@@StripeyHatGuy thanks mate. Planning to head there in a week or two if this rain stops. It might be a bog right now. 😃😃

[@StripeyHatGuy]

You're welcome. Yeah it might be very boggy at the moment.

[@michaelschmitzerle2587]

May I suggest you may want to look at the mini air pump made by FlexTailGear, sold through Amazon. Watch the KZbin demo of it. It’s and excellent invention and not very expensive.👍

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Is a good recommendation, but to be honest I try to avoid single purpose items as good as it gets. I use the pump sack also as a dry sack for packing things and when I use the scarp 1 I use it as a 'tent' bag. Thanks a lot so, always great to hear other thoughts! ATB Stripey

[@craig3401]

That's the 2nd vid I've seen where the xlite as failed there must be a manufacturing issue with them

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Craig, that is definitely possible. For me it is the second xlite within one season...still think that the xlite is an amazing isomattress so regarding the r-value, packsize and weight. Maybe I am lucky the third time 🤞 Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey

[@iainmc9859]

I've been meaning to head to the Machar Stones for a year or two but I've been put off by the lack of a direct path. Is it easier from the bridge parking, following the farm track and then cutting through the plantation or to come in from the northern side following the edge of the trees before a shorter trek through the plantation. I've got no intention of doing it in inclement weather 😊 The standing stones at Dumgoyach are quite picturesque.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Hi Ian, we walked basically both ways as the rivers where completely swollen the next day. I personally think the way from the bridge is a wee bit more pathfinding than from the Todpole Carpark but both are easygoing when you have a gps/map/compass. Yeah read about the Dumgoyach Stones, really like the wee hill next to it as well - maybe someday I will head to them - thanks for the tip! ATB Stripey

[@iainmc9859]

@@StripeyHatGuy I presume you are also aware of Canmore Mapping, part of Historic Environment Scotland. Probably the best site for a curious hillwalker.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

Actually no! Thank you so much 👏👍 Will definitely check out the site later - thanks a lot! ATB Stripey

[@iainmc9859]

@@StripeyHatGuy I can also recommend the British Geological Survey (BGS) mapping, if you're interested in why the land you're walking on is the way it is.

[@StripeyHatGuy]

I am definitely interested in it, particular in a place with such a long history! Thank you Iain! Stripey
