Can't believe one of the tips here is to make sure to wear combats because they are useful when stealing noodles from your in-laws. Love it

I got tired of carrying 8-10kg on my back so I've started using an 82L shopping trolley to carry all my wild camping gear ! I pack up my backpack and then put the whole pack into the trolley. So far its working out great, but I do need to look into swapping the wheels out for bigger ones with inner tubes.

Nice tips. You have a wonderful weekend

[ProfoundOneSpeaks]

Fine video, thanks. I camp in the Scottish Highlands whenever I can, all seasons, finding even budget gear working well. Best wishes!

Hi just found your channel, great content. I've subscribed. Im in Australia

After having reviewed your video on the backpach, I found one! It arrived last week from a vendor in Finland. Very pleased with it! This video on packing your gear in the bag will be very helpful when I sort out my gear. I live in a rural unpopulated area of the northeast in North America The system will make a perfect "72 hour Get Home Bag" to keep in the trunk of my car with other winter emergency gear in the event that I have to abandon my car for some and get to safety/home on foot. Thanks again, Jason for sharing your knowledge. J. Montarsi

Try mountain forecast for weather info. Not sure how accurate it is yet but worth a look ☔️

Another great video Jason, as always a great source of information . After my first wild camp last year, I made a list as soon as I got home of what I thought worked and what definitely did not ! To this day I check it and I would recommend anyone going wild camping should try doing it as well ., adding to it or taking from it .I'm still in the novice stage but well hooked ! Thanks again !

Some good tips, I was wildcamping over 40 years and I never stopped learning. Be safe and be lucky.

[wildtroutangler]

Great advice and tips, enjoyed the video.

[abedmellal]

Great video yet again!! Tnx for the tips, ear plugs work wonders, I lost one one night (camping in the garden 😂 just starting camping) and I had no way of finding the flipping thing, I gave up looking for it, then a passing lorry scared the life out of me at about 5:30, still was enjoyable night, was going tonight but we got a weather warning for the night, so I'm at home watching you RAMBLING ON about advice, tnx

[johndillon]

Great stuff Jason, so honest and genuine! It’s been so nice watching your journey bro, your channel fast became one of my favourites to watch. It’s always nice seeing a notification pop up to see there’s a new video uploaded. Keep them coming bro 🏕

[leeprice]

Great video capturing 1 year of buying and camping mate. Good to see how we are coming along with you too. Hope you continue for many years. Have a great weekend Jason 😊👍

[samlee]

Love your ramblin man, looks like you've had some great adventures 😎👍

[keyhere]

Love watching, just started getting out myself last year and looking forward to more!

[ShaunUnderwoodx]

I was going to subscribe.. but I just couldn't be arsed 😂. No seriously bro I subscribed.. I'm looking to get into doing wild.. ex military and I hate ppl. I used to go camping a lot as a teenager but haven't done anything in the past 20 years recently just got back from Ukraine . So I am looking forward to getting out just got myself some bits and bobs on a budget of course.. everything like this needs to be planned precisionly. So I'm looking for the wild camping in North Yorkshire.. I don't want to drive so I will be travelling by train.. it saves in the middle night chickening out and driving home at least this way I'm there until the next day .. so yeah I'm looking on YouTube and came across the channel love you sense of humour not taking everything too seriously like everyone else . Thanks very much 👍

Congrats on your first year. Time has flown by. Great tips for the beginner. I enjoyed the way you brought in some old video clips when making your point. Can't wait for the next one.
