Rombald's Moor Wild Camp


Here is a map of my wild camp round Rombald's Moor. The route was completed clockwise.

Lots of interesting lessons learned.

1. Gators are godsend. The snow was knee deep in places. The gators kept my feet dry all day.

2. Meths won't light when its cold.

3. Sit on Meths to make it warm then it will burn, yey!

4. Walking poles split into 6 massive pegs to pitch your tent in the snow, however, careful they may freeze solid to the ground.

  1. Looks like a good snowy wild camp, how low did the temp drop during the night?

  2. Seemed like a great trip from the photos and a brill idea to use your walking poles as pegs! Winter is almost with us and can't wait to get out again. You got any trips plans before new year?
