Join me and @GrizzlyGaz for this wild camp up on Kinder Scout in the Peak District.
I tried out 'ultraheavy' camping and tested out the Wild Country Panacea 2 tent. My pack was 16kg in total for the trip.
Though the weather forecast looked OK when we set off, we never imagined it would change the way it did.
The wind changed direction after we’d pitched up and got up to 51mph gusts, flattening Gaz's NatureHike Tunnel tent, and eventually bending the poles on my Panacea 2 (I had trekking poles in place too!).
We decided we needed to bail. The choice was to wait until the morning, where heavy rain had been forecast from 5am onwards, or head down in the dark. Either way the wind wasn't scheduled to drop so we slowly and safely packed up our gear, and took a slow walk down Grindslow Clough at 3am.
I planned to test out a new Sea 2 Summit deluxe pillow too, but you'll have to wait for a verdict once I've actually slept on it!
Thanks for watching! Ben 🤓
