Bad Weather Mountain Camping | Testing Hilleberg Soulo Tent - 60km/h Winds - Unexpectedly Beautiful!

As a former Forest Service wilderness ranger in the US, I am enthralled by your adventures. This particular tent means little, compared to your willingness to go out in such conditions------and have a GREAT time! I love how you continually stretch yourself, and are willing to try different things. It's clear that you are learning very quickly, and how to back yourself up in case of problems.

I am too infirm now to go camping and enjoy wild places but I can still enjoy Clare's trips. She does an amazing job of filming the wild and mixing in the interesting equipment, cooking and navigation content.

First, great video and honest comments regarding the tent. Second, I have a female friend who has been told by her "macho," co-workers that she needs a man to handle camping. I told her to check out your videos and you have empowered her to go out there and do it. She feels more independent, confident, and when she shows her friends at work her iPhone videos they are all so proud of her and the "boys" shut up! Respect from your many friends in Florida USA 🌴

Wind, rain, snow, a rainbow and ten hours of beauty sleep in a waterproof tent qualifies as the consummate overnight camping adventure. 🙂

Lady, you are a bad weather WARRIOR! It never ceases to amaze me how you can keep in such good spirits whatever is going on around you. You're brilliant for that! So glad you've found a tent that works so well for you, even if it's heavier than you'd like. Thanks again for your wonderful content, lovely face and inviting attitude!

You are a brave woman! I enjoy all your videos. Thanks for bringing us along.

I love hearing the hail on the tent you can’t beat being nice and snug feeling nice and tired with a hot meal down my neck and all warm and dry in my sleeping bag … it’s a great feeling xx

Being a Hilleberg tent I was not surprised by the quality and robustness of this tent.. They are expensive but as the old saying goes "you get what you paid for".🌲🔥🌳🌲🔥🌳

Hilleberg tents are very strong and well built. Good choice. You will enjoy lots of trips in it.

I miss camping alot and i watch quiet a few camping videos on YouTube but yours absolutely capture the whole feeling of camping unlike others do. Thank you again for your videos and bringing back the sounds and smells of camping 🙏🙏

You are so amazing that a double rainbow had to come visit. Then, even the moon seemed to dip a bit lower and peep out of the clouds. What an inspiration you are

Claire, I watch almost all of your videos and they always produce great content and information. As you know, I pass a lot of your videos on to my Boy Scouts. This video is just as powerful. Thanks for showing us real world adventures. Thanks for the good times.

As a former infantryman, I am glad to see you taking care of your feet.

Looks like a great tent Clare. It’s lovely being all snug in a tent knowing you are safe and listening to the weather outside xx

Hi Claire. It’s a bomb shelter of a tent. In wet n windy conditions just in lip the inner and push it back to make the vestibule bigger for cooking indoors. Another tip is for the hilleberg wind-chimes “ noisey zips 😂” put some electrical shrink wrap on them and use a hairdryer to cover the zips. I did that to my old Akto and it was great. Still to do it to my soulo tho. Condensation is better if you don’t keep stuff in the vestibule. It blocks the air flow

A tip for your foot powder. If you get ziploc or dry bag big enough to fit your foot in and put your foot powder in the bottom of it before you leave home. When out and about simply put your foot in the bag, less mess and less powder wasted. Great channel! Thank you. Oh nearly forgot, nice tent....

Great episode Claire. That’s an amazing tent. A good idea to secure it to your rucksack as you put it up. Interesting to see it gradually get more rigid as you worked to pitch it. Finally that moment when it’s all done and you get inside out of the weather eh? A really strong tent, a great review. Some amazing scenery as well, loved it👍❤️

Great to see you out enjoying yet another amazing adventure Claire! That double rainbow was just absolutely stunning too! It was really nice to get the "grand tour" of your new tent as well. I hope that it serves you well on many a foul weather adventure to come 👍 I would most certainly have to say that it was definitely a great investment (no more worries about your primary shelter breaking down on you). Now I'm going to have to get one just for that 10 hours of sleep, haha 😉 I hope that you have a wonderful weekend my friend! :) Stay wild.... -John

It’s been wonderful to follow your channel from those early days and you just grow and grow in experience, confidence and positivity. Although your enthusiasm and cheerfulness in the face of adversity has always been there. You amaze and inspire me ❤

One of my favourite channels. I love camping but haven’t done it for a few years. I go to sleep most nights listening to a storm on YouTube. Thanks for your experiences.
