Re: Possible Tent,

Hehe. Loving the replies. If I wasn't scared of forest monsters and mythical beasts coming to get me then I'd love to bivvy. Maybe when I'm more brave, happy to admit I'm not ready for bivvy yet. I'll look into these suggestions tonight though. I was told a single skin tent isn't ideal, I did use JC...

Possible Tent,

Been getting all my research done and I think I've found a good double skin tent. https://www.millets.co.uk/tents-camping ... green.html

Anyone use one of these before?

Looking for something to fit me at 6ft 1 in!

Thanks! :cool:

Re: Bag Choice

Hi

I'm really drawn to that due to the pack size. When did you do the ht550? Just to gauge temperatures etc.

I also love the look of the Cumulus which may win.

Many thanks!

Re: Bag Choice

Thanks very much indeed - I ran out and got this https://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/oex-fathom-ev-200-sleeping-bag-p429373 for last months bivvy as my old one took up my entire rear bag.
