Bad Weather Mountain Camping in the MSR Access 1 Tent | Lake District National Park

Описание: Bad Weather Mountain Camping in the MSR Access 1 Tent | Lake District National Park

In this video, I head up into the mountains of the Lake District National Park for a wild camp in the MSR "Access 1" tent. I was also very excited to be testing the "Melee" jacket by Thrudark. The MWIS forecast gave winds of 40 - 50 mph so I knew it would be a great test for this tent, which is sold as being 4 season. We headed up to our chosen pitch site, only to find it was not suitable due to water levels, meaning we could not pitch four tents. We headed back down a rocky scree path to an idyllic tarn, flanked by majestic and dramatic peaks as low level cloud rolled in.

The tent performed well and I attached additional guy lines to each and every guy out loop. I found the structure to be stable in the wind and as I've said on previous videos; the head room and almost vertical walls in this tent provide massive space for the small footprint.

The craft beers flowed and breaks in the cloud afforded stunning views of starts and distant constellations. The winds forecast did not materialise, or we found some great shelter - the next morning, the tent was hit by considerable gusts but held firm throughout.

A great camp with a great bunch of people and more fantastic memories made in our great outdoors.

Thank you for watching and always leave no trace, Chris
