For some, maybe a fashion thing.. However, I do feel I have to defend the suv drivers amongst us and express the fact that for some, it's practicality. A blend of space for the kids and gear, decent ground clearance for the really rubbish tracks that they call roads around here and the fact it...

Was a great camp lads! No doubt get planning for the next adventure soon. :) Steve

I wouldn't take no feedback as a negative. More discussion usually arises from either a controversial subject or a post seeking advice ( everyone loves advising or chipping in when there controversy!).... the fact there are numerous views of your videos/posts would suggest either...

Looks like I'm gonna make it up for Friday evening now rather than the saturday 😊 keep your eye out for a green canoe! As a side note, if anyone else is wanting to come along, I'll be driving up from Lockerbie around 1pm, so provided not too far off track, happy to pick up on route...

Deffo some good fishing to be had in etive!

I'm down the road near lockerbie. Do a bit of wildcamping and kayak/canoeing up around the highlands throughout the year. Seems to be a few folk around the area :) Steve

Have decided to keep the rucksack, knife and vargo triad titanium meths stove still up for grabs though :)

Lavvo sold, heatpal stove still up for grabs though 😊

Hi, Am having a thin out of my gear and have the following up for sale: Gerber Ultimate Pro Survival knife. It has been used but not abused. It has some scuffs from light baton work (as can be seen in the picture), apart from that, in very good nick, a very sturdy knife. The sheath comes with...

Hi, I have for sale a mint condition Bergans Lavvo, only been on 3 weekend trips with it and didn't see any foul weather. It comes with the additional Bergans full groundsheet and midge net doors/chimney. An awesome bit of kit, however, I simply have too much kit and that includes tents (I seem...

Not got a pic to hand, however I will be setting up this week to replace guylines (new cordage from santa!)as hoping to go away on weekend for an overnighter :) will post up a pic or two once I have it pitched and will whack the net up also. It's a nice little lightweight set up :) Cheers Steve

Alpkit rig 7 tarp, neoair xtherm, lightweight solo groundsheet. Have a seatosummit nano pyramid net for midge season and for winter I add a bivvy bag. Bombproof set up really :) and lighter than hammock, tarp and underblanket. For my kayak or canoe trips though I tend to take a bit of...

You will Deffo need some form of insulation as even a cool breeze will sap the warmth from you (bear in mind all insulation from whatever your laying on in hammock will be compressed so will offer little protection). I never really got on with hammocks but had tried a few before reverting back...

I'll take the recon 1 clip point. If you can PM me your PayPal details I'll get payment over when I get home (morning out with the kids....) Cheers Steve

Hi folks, I see DD hammocks have now extended their range and are now making a pyramid tent. Anyone got one yet or seen one in the flesh? Cheers Steve

Yes I guess as I kayaked around from arisaig up loch Nevis and carted the boat over to morar I may well have been in the densely wooded area. I had a tent but had thought to myself a hammock would have been a god send on my last night at morar.

Plenty of hammock opportunity there. If you are on the water though it can be pretty mental when the wind picks up. What a place though, it's definately on my 'must go back there' list :) Steve

What about shelter? Will be a big difference in terms of using natural shelters rather than the modern sil nylon etc :) Steve

Pm sent on other item :) Cheers Steve

I have one also. In fairness it doesn't get used very often as I have a few mats. But for the price, it's pretty good and seems hardwearing, only downside with the one I have is its bulky compared to some. For the price though, you would be hard pressed to find a better mat. Steve
