The tent was provided to me for review, however I would like to point out that there has been no direction from Nortent whatsoever and all the comments made are my own honest thoughts.
There has been a lot of internet buzz, good and bad about the Vern 1 so I was keen to try one out and also try and compare it to the Hilleberg Soulo, MSR Access 1, and MSR Access 2 which I have also owned in the past.

The trail is often unmarked and precarious, it's also exposed to the ever changing weather so experience in hiking and navigation is essential.
Note that I had decided to try the route in reverse walking from South to North which I feel is the best way to actually tackle the route.
My Approx Route Info:
Day 1 - Broadford to Elgol (21.20 miles) Day 2 - Elgol to Sligachan (14.30 miles) Day 3 - Sligachan to Old Man of Storr (21.35 miles) Day 4 - Old Man of Storr to Loch Finish Point (19.50 miles)
Note that I was only (7 miles) walk from the official end point which I could have finished that morning had I chosen to keep walking.

This was to try it out having been updated with ventilation modifications and the last time I tried one was over 7 years ago. The comments and opinions made in this video are my own and as such please always do your own research as what may not work for me my be ideal for others.
Note that that the tent has lots of good points but feel it may be a little too cramped internally for some people. This is especially applicable if you have lots of gear in winter and as such I believe it may not be best tent suited for winter camping. However please always do your own research as what may not work for me my be ideal for others.
Also missed out on one of the biggest Aurora (Northern Lights) show in years. Forgot to activate my alarm I had set to wake me up later that evening. Doh......
Route Map: (Suggest 'Whitewell' circuit as avoids the 'Chalamain Gap').
TERRAIN: Warning! Rough paths to Corrour bothy (extremely rough boulder field in the Chalamain Gap) followed by a steep ascent to the plateau. The terrain on the traverse is mostly straightforward rocky tundra, though there are boulder fields on Cairn Toul. However there are huge cliffs close to much of the route, it is extremely exposed to bad weather and careful navigation is essential in poor visibility. For this reason, together with its great length and the lack of escape routes, this walk is classed as Grade 5 out of 5. (Difficult).

No wild storm, wind or rain for a change, just clear and still with amazing views of the night sky and Northern lights (Aurora Borealis).
Have been wanting to revisit and camp in this area for a while and it has been 8 years since my last visit. It was also the location of one of my very first ever YouTube videos. The weather forecast was looking amazing so it would allow me to meet up again with Andrew Park and also test out this new tent in some fairly cold weather.
This was a basic look and overview of the tent, but so far I like many aspects of it. However the limited storage and inner pitch first maybe a deal breaker for many. I need to try it out in some wild weather to see how it really performs.
'Ben Vrackie' (787m) sits behind the town of 'Pitlochry' and has for long been an extremely popular ascent for those visiting the town. The summit is a great viewpoint and the ascent follows good paths through woodland, open moorland and past picturesque 'Loch a' Choire'.

Out camping with the 'Terra Nova, Laser Compact AS' tent, wild camping amongst the Scottish mountains.
The weather forecast was initially looking good but changed during the night. This did allow me to see how this tent would perform with some moderate level windy weather.
To be honest I am not sure on this tent yet and need to do a follow up video covering all my findings. There are some things about this tent I am not too sure about yet and in this video I give my initial thoughts and ramblings.
The area I visited is called, Beinn a' Ghlรฒ which is comprised of three Munro (Mountain) summits.
The location I was heading for was a Corbett called Ben Vuirich, however ended up camping on a lower down mountain top in between called, Sron Na H-Innearach.

The links below will take you to a BBC podcast all about this interesting structure and events that have meant to have taken place in the past.
I also highly recommend you watch Murray on his YT channel โScotlandโs Mountainsโ when he releases his version as he spent a lot more time filming and going into the spooky history of this building along with a lot more fireside chat.
This trip has also let me try out some new camping gear such as the recently released โTerra Nova Laser Compact ASโ tent. Along with a new sleeping mat from โCollins Outdoorโ the โLight Tourโ with an (R5.8) temperature rating.
Please do not purchase any gear I have used based on this video until I can fully review in more detail. This was just a short overnight Wild Camping trip to try the gear out.

Not really sure if I need this tent and if I should actually keep it or not. Was not able to get parked down towards Glencoe as I had planned so switched to my Plan-B. My old camp spot was a little more exposed and windier than planned. However it did let me test out the Hilleberg Soulo's well-known stability again first hand in some rather windy weather.
Also had the chance to try out the new, NeoAirยฎ XThermโข NXT MAX Sleeping Pad for the first time. I had originally purchased to try out during the winter after my latest Glencoe summit camp.
Some of the key items below that I used during this wild camping trip.

After many years having avoided trying one I have decided to bite the bullet and give one a go.
Conditions looked great for a winter wild camp on a mountain summit close to the Glencoe Ski Centre, but as dusk fell the weather didnโt half take a turn for the worse.
However it was ideal to show how quickly the weather can turn whilst out in the mountains and provided an unexpected test of the Hilleberg Soulo's capabilities during windy weather.

It was still however a great hiking and camping experience even with the wild amounts of rain and snow.
The West Highland Way runs for 96 miles from Milngavie to Fort William, travelling through some of the most stunning landscapes in Scotland. It passes alongside lochs and rivers, travels through forest and moorlands, explores countless historical sites, and encompasses mountains of all scales, including Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK.

Out in the Lake District for a few days holiday to take the opportunity to test this new tent and also have a short relaxing break from it all. Note that the tent was a press sample to review and return and I have not been paid for this video.
Note that his tent is also available in both a Polycotton as shown in my video or as a lighter weight Polyester version.
Three durable โ12 cm Air Poles are inflated individually for fast and simple set-up and take-down. The benefit of the polycotton material is the reduction in condensation as well as regulating the interior temperature, ideal for both warm and cold weather camping trips.
Luggage or equipment can be stored easily in the generous rear storage area, accessed through the rear of the inner tent bedroom. The inner tent also uses dark materials to block out early morning sunlight for a good nightโs sleep.
Wet weather front brow over the entrance also provides sheltered access to the tent and prevents rain running in when you unzip and open the door.

Be aware that all my films, content, images and information is copyright and cannot be used for commercial or public purposes.Wild Camping Overnight Adventure.RS Outdoors2022-09-18 | I have really enjoyed using this Lux Hexpeak V4a pyramid tent on my latest trip.
Note that it is available in both Forest Green or Desert Brown colour and there is even a four-season version with a snow skirt. The construction is pretty good and well stitched using a stronger fabric than some of the more well known ultralight tents available and instead is made using (40D/230T Nylon Ripstop) with an overall weight of 1.2kg.
This typical pyramid / tipi single pole shelter design is very easy to erect, especially in poor weather. Teepee tents in general are historically reliable camping shelters and famous for there versatility and ease of erestion. Simply stake out the four corners, slide underneath, place the pole in the centre and add some tension.
Once all your gear is in and under cover, all the other pegging points and guy lines can all be sorted out and tensioned if required.
It also has a generous floor space which is great for comfort and stowing gear but can also be a drawback as a much larger area is required for pitching it, which may rule out some potential spots where space is tight or ground is very uneven.
Inside there is a generous porch with room for gear and cooking if the weather is bad. The shelter can also be used on its own without the inner to create a generous space and also save weight, but most will opt for the single person inner. This adds a little extra warmth on cold nights, helps to prevent draughts and also keeps those pesky biting insects at bay.
There are a number of extra options for inside including a two-person inner and a selection of bathtub footprints for use as a single skin setup where the ground is wet.
I am 5' 10" and there is enough room for me to lie down on a generous sleeping pad without my face touching the inner tent. However, if you're over 6' in height then the slightly compact inner may be an issue.
The beauty of this type of tent design is that it makes use of trekking poles but a rather robust dedicated pole can be purchased for an additional cost if required.

Late morning in the Scottish Cairngorm's was blisteringly hot with the start of the UK wide heatwave as is typical in the Scottish mountains it then soon gave way to 30-40 mph gusts and heavy rain during the evening.
However, it was another fine, long walk in the Cairngorm's up to Loch Etchachan which is the highest Loch of this size in the UK with the surface being 927 meters above sea level.
It is a great walk and thoroughly recommended. But note it is a very long route, but made up for with spectacular scenery.

The lost valley or hidden valley is a one-of-a-kind special place, tucked away in between the mountains of Glencoe.
Please be aware that the route is a steep and rocky path with some mild scrambling; with great care needed especially in bad or wet weather.
Despite their modest height, walking and climbing in any mountains may be made treacherous by their latitude and exposure to weather systems. Even in summer, conditions can be atrocious; thick fog, strong winds, driving rain and freezing summit temperatures are commonplace.
The content shown in my films are just my own opinions, thoughts and as a way to record my trips. WARNING - Walking and hiking in the mountains & hills can be dangerous and is done entirely at your own risk. _________________________________________________________________

Having not seen many Aurora events myself, it was great to get out and see if we could witness and capture it from my local hills. It proved to be a cold, cloudy and rather blustery evening but all worthwhile in the end.
During this film I also discuss a new pot / windshield adapter plate to use with the MSR Pocket Rocket 2 which can be purchased from Flat Cat Gear through link below. Looking to do a further in depth review after having used it on a few more trips.
The Ocelot Inferno HX Kit is an adapter plate used to couple the Pocket Rocket Deluxe (and PR2) to the Sterno Inferno mug. The stove requires no modifications and can easily be converted back to the standard position in seconds.

This film covers the basics of what I carried to be both safe and comfortable whilst out in the wild and remote sections of the Scottish Highlands.
During my backpacking trip of the Cape Wrath Trail the weather conditions and terrain tested a lot of my gear to the limit. Some of it may not be ultralight but was certainly lightweight and most importantly, comfortable to carry and use over multiple days of wild camping.

It is considered to be one of the most challenging and difficult long distance backpacking hikes in the UK.
It is an unofficial, unmarked and magnificently challenging route for experienced long-distance backpackers, the Trail passes through some of Scotland's most spectacular landscapes.
However I believe it should be called the Cape Wrath Challenge as it will challenge you both mentally and physically. It will challenge your fitness, mental fortitude, hill skills and gear selection unlike anything you may have done before.
Due to time restraints I had decided to spend 7 days backpacking the Southern Section of the trail with one rest day in the middle. My hike would start from the Corran Ferry crossing and finish up at the small village of Ullapool on the shores of Loch Broom.
This was the last section of the CWT I had still to complete having already walked the northern section southward from the Lighthouse to Ullapool and having to pull out due to blisters last year.
It normally takes 2-3 weeks to cover the 230-miles through the highlands of Scotland. Most will usually start from Fort William and finally ending up at the Cape Wrath lighthouse which is the most north westerly point in the whole of the UK.
The terrain and weather can make travel on the trail difficult day to day and good navigation skills are a must. Many of the sections involves multiple steep ascents and descents which can be difficult, often in remote areas of the highlands with no visible paths or routes.
NB -The content within this film is strictly my personal video of the trip. It is not intended to be used as a guide. Take care and be responsible for your activities. Do your own research, be safe, be prepared and have a great time in the Great Outdoors :)

Cloud, or temperature inversions in Scotland are a thick layer of mist clinging to the ground. If you are lucky enough to be standing on a hill when this happens you can be treated to incredible vista of a sea of cloud, with island-like mountain tops rising out from the mist.
On this trip I was also lucky enough to see my first ever Brocken Spectre which was named after the German mountain on which it was first noted.
When an observer stands on a hill which is partially enveloped in mist and in such a position that their shadow is thrown on to the mist, they may get the illusion that the shadow is a person seen dimly through the mist.
The illusion is that this person or 'spectre' is gigantic and at a considerable distance away from them.

Decided to have a trip to complete the summits of three mountain tops I have been meaning to visit for a long time. Nice to be out on my own to relax and just enjoy the amazing scenery and views this area has to offer.
Also discuss briefly the issue with dirty wild camping and to be honest this may be a term I no longer use in my video titles.
At the end of the day what I do is really backpacking and has only one real definition: hiking to a location with camping gear so you can stay out overnight.

The tent used on this trip was the 1.5P DCF Pyramid made by a guy called 'Jumper Home Studio'. He was small ultralight tent and gear manufacturer based in China and not long after this film was made he sadly passed away in a mountain accident whilst out hiking.
The location for this wild camping trip was near the summit of Beinn รme, the highest of the Arrochar Alps at (1011 metres). The weather changed from sunny intervals to high winds and rain during the evening, which turned out to be ideal conditions for testing the tents overall performance.

The updated for 2020 Tarptent Notch Li is one of the manufacturers lightest double wall shelter and something I have wanted to try for a very long time.
This tent is very lightweight and comes across as being very well-made. It was extremely quick and easy to pitch and I really like the two porches and the convenience of having doors on both sides. It does seem to be a good size and weight for long distance backpacking and solo wild camping trips in the UK.
I also like the fact that the dyneema fabric doesnโt absorb water or become saggy during the night, itโs still as taut in the morning as it was when first erected.
I am also impressed by the little things such as the magnetic tie-backs for the flysheet doors. Little things like this on the tent make it a lot nicer and easier to live with when youโre out hiking and wild camping for weeks on end.
It will be interesting to see how it fairs as a one-person backpacking tent in the UKโs variable weather as I take on some long distance walks in the very near future.
There are a few things I would add to make it that bit stronger which is mainly for mountain summit camps where high winds are common and can come on without warning. Although not needed according to many reports I will however be adding some additional guy points. From my own experience wild camping and with the simplicity to do modifications I think I will add some for my own piece of mind.
Appreciate when spending a lot of money on a tent you shouldn't need to make changes, however no tent is perfect and all have some niggles that could improve it one way or another. Would be good to see manufacturers taking on board what real world users say and think.

Just giving my initial thoughts on the tents design and make a few comments on things that I would maybe recommend they change in the future to make it even better. However, it looks another well-made tent and I am really looking forward to taking it out to test in the real world.
The Lanshan 2 is a very lightweight and affordable tent and an excellent option for those wanting to start out in the world of wild camping and backpacking. This tent is a trekking pole setup which means the tent comes in at an overall weight of around 1140 grams and you use your own two trekking poles to set it up and give it structure.
Note that you can also purchase a separate carbon fibre support poles for it if you prefer to not use trekking poles.
TENT SPECS
Weight:2.53 lb / 40.56 oz / 1150 g Dimensions:82.67 in (L) x 49.2 in (H) / 210 cm (L) x 125 cm (H) Fly: 20 D double coated silicon Inner tent: 15D nylon mesh๏ผ3 season๏ผ / 15D Nylon๏ผ 4 season๏ผ Bottom: 20 D Silicon coated nylon Zipper: 3#YKK
The Difference Between Lanshan And Lanshan Pro:
1. Lanshan is double-layer. Its inner tent is separated from the rainfly. While the Lanshan Pro is single-layer, and its inner tent is stitched together with the rainfly. 2. Lanshan is made from 15d single-coated silicon fabric, while the Lanshan Pro is made from 20d double-coated silicon fabric which is a little lighter and stronger.
PLS NOTE:
The 3-season comes with an inner tent made from nylon mesh which is thin and breathable. So 3-season tents are more suitable for summer camping.
The 4-season comes with an inner tent made from nylon cloth which is thick and high-density, and it provides more protection from wind and draughts blowing through.
This tent also needs to be seam-sealed by yourself! to ensure it is fully waterproof before use.

Not many reviews or people seem to use them and the reason for this I believe is that they are not sold in many bricks and mortar shops, they seem to be an online purchase only.
My thoughts so far after having owned several pairs is that they are very comfortable, waterproof and fit to your feet like a glove. These will be my selection for my upcoming backpacking trip of the 'Cape Wrath Trail' across Scotland.
The Goretex does breath pretty well allowing sweat to escape and the pattern of the sole does provide pretty good grip but can still be a bit slippy on very steep, wet ground or wet / slimy rocks. But I have found this to be a common issue across all of Salomons outdoor footwear range to be honest.
However having worn this model of boot for many years I am impressed and would easily recommend them. These for me feel a better and more agile boot to the Salomon Quest 4 GTX that is also available.
There are reports of people having issues with the material cracking at the toe flex point and then leaking after about 6-9 months of use. This so far has not happened to myself and not seen any failure of the boots except for the sole unit wearing out.
I really do wish that Salomon would make a better compound for a lot of the boots they manufacturer which is far sticker for the wilder, wet terrain and also lasts that little bit longer. The grip performance of the sole unit is a niggle that you will see coming up again and again in the forums online.
But so far in my own personal experience they seem to wear extremely well with nearly no damage after months and months of abuse.
Because of all this they will be my footwear of choice for my upcoming return to the Cape Wrath Trail and letโs see how a new pair performs on that challenge.

Fairly lightweight, strong and with excellent internal space, what's not to like?
This is my review having owned a couple of these tents over the last few years along with the MSR Access 1. I have used the Access range of tents throughout the years, from stormy mountain summit wild camping trips to several multi-week long distance hikes across Scotland.
They have performed really well in some atrocious Scottish conditions and so far they have never let me down. However this time I decided to get one again purely for winter camping and it wasnโt based on my past experience with them, or their performance. But just the bright, or should I say retina splitting bright, orange colour ๐

Wild camping alone lets me enjoy the best of what nature has to offer and for me it is the opportunity to break away from the stresses of modern everyday life, even if only for a short while.
Feel free to share in the comments below why you enjoy wild camping, hillwalking or any particular outdoor activity that you feel improves your own mental and physical wellbeing.
Black Mount where I camped is a mountain range located in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It is situated between Glen Orchy and Glen Coe. It includes the Munro's Stob Ghabhar, Stob a' Choire Odhair as shown in the video.

The thought of being alone in the woods or on the mountains alone in the dark might seem like a scary proposition.
It does take time to get adjusted to camping on your own and becoming accustomed to the sights and sounds of nature. Many scary sounds and noises during the night can seem terrifying at first until you realise what they actually are. Sometimes the simplest sounds around you can make your mind and fear levels go into overdrive.
In this video I give you my thoughts on solo camping as well as some of the more unusual things I have experienced. If you have a similar or interesting stories to share or advice for people solo camping alone for the first time then please share and post in the comments below.

Had to change my plans on this two day wild camping trip out in the Scottish Mountains.
This trip involved backpacking out into the 'Loch Mullardoch Munros' where I also spent a couple of nights out on the mountain summits.
Due to the spectacular weather my plan had been to go round as many of the 12 mountain tops in the area as possible. However due to my health, this group of mountains more or less chewed me up and spat me out.
