This is long overdue but here goes!
In my October half term i spent 3 days hiking across the north downs around sevenoaks. It was wonderful and we did the same kind of thing last year,. we brought all our own food except for a bit of chicken. We were very lucky with the weather as it didnt rain until the last day. The first campsite was really nice and had good facilities however the second wasnt as good and was a bit more simple. We took our Vango tempest 300 and i slept great in my alpkit pipedream 600(Best sleeping bag ever!!! IMO) and i slept on my alpkit dirtbag the first night but i kindly lent it to my mum on the second night as it she got terrible back ache. ( she said it made a huge difference ) We saw lots of fungi along the way.
Anyway enough babble. Some Pics!
Me and bro! (Im on the left)
My bro with a amazing view behind him! This was taken at the top of a killer hill!
A huge beech tree
Huge mass of fungi! (Foot for scale) Any ideas?
Bramble (I think) growing in the top of a post! (they really will grow anywhere)
Some birch polypore
Some tiny tiny fungus
Boys at camp enjoying porridge mmmmmm.......
Get the trangia fired up for the 2nd brew of the morning (many more to come)
Brew Time!!
LNT
Mum and Bro on last day. (notice the rain covers) Pi$$ed it down that day!
We had a great time although we had to bail on the last day as it rained too much.
Overall a great time had by all. I can thoroughly recommend the Alpkit stuff. Also got some titanium snapwire. Also amazing
Sorry about the bad quality pics.
Thanks for looking
