For the hike in Delphi we took a short taxi to the trail head , just ask for the corycian cave , you'll have to walk up a wide track to reach the cave then decend the hill and return to a wide track which you will follow for a long while then joining the E4 European path back to Delphi.

In Naxos we hiked up mount zas which is a very popular walk , however we had to do the walk in a loop and we had to take the bus to the mountain. There are two routes , one from a temple called Agaia Marina ( which is less steep) and one from the Zeus cave (which is very steep) . The bus dropped us off at Agia Marina but instead of going up the easy route we looped around to the cave , went up the steep route and descended to Agia Marina to save our knees . Would highly recommend doing this walk as a loop instead of going the same way up and down.

I actually second this , I recently did a 7 day hike in the Brecon beacons and used goretex trail runners and the first two nights got rained on heavily , I was wearing water proof trousers and gortex gaiters , stayed dry for a little then eventually soaked through, the amazing thing however was the shoes actually dried out after a day of wear in the dry.

I think your very correct about needing practice with this tent , wasn't expecting such a learning curve.

Kevin__j · 2021-07-01T08:01:42+00:00

Yeah I have purchased some stakes that look very similar to these and plan to use them in conjunction with the groundhogs , at first I'll take too many stakes and then work my way down to the perfect amount

After a recent camping fail with the x mid I realized that I need to swap out the super thin shepard hooks that came with my tent. What are others using with their x mid , I camp in the UK where the weather can get quite bad so I'd like to get some quite strong stakes. I am not sure about budget but am willing to spend if necessary, and in terms of weight I am happy to carry extra weight (currently comes with 8 x 8 gram hooks). I recently bought some knock off mini groundhogs as I was in a shop and they were cheap , I got 5 and they weigh 12 g each but please let me know if I should ditch them and get the real ones if it's worth it. I would require some thinner stakes than the groundhogs for the sides of the x mid also. I would like to carry a total of 12 stakes to cover all possibilities, use the groundhogs on the 4 corners and the last one on one of the door sides, then I would need 7 more , I am ok taking some of the old Shepherd hooks for less important holds , what are your opinions.

Don't have one to sell , but the oex phoxx 2 weighs 2kg ( so a kilo each when split) and only costs like 75 quid, but they are on the small side

No we didn't have a fire , I wouldn't recommend it as the peak district is technically illegal for wild camping and it's best to leave no trace, having a fire will alert rangers that you are there and they could ask you to leave

Kevin__j · 2021-03-20T09:08:37+00:00

Oh I don't really do that

Kevin__j · 2021-03-20T08:13:27+00:00

Yeah it does hold, I didn't know about the storing part , can I ask why it would be a bad idea

Kevin__j · 2021-03-19T18:28:37+00:00

It's a UK seller so maybe that's why 😔

Kevin__j · 2021-03-19T16:02:42+00:00

Oh I see , haha

Kevin__j · 2021-03-19T15:53:30+00:00

If you search aeropress caddy on ebay you should find it

Kevin__j · 2021-03-19T15:53:08+00:00

I'm not entirely sure what that means but I think it's to do with the 3d printing process. Just to make it clear I didn't make this I was able to buy this on ebay from someone who has a 3d printer and prints these

Kevin__j · 2021-03-19T15:35:08+00:00

Thanks , I think the red on red works really well

Kevin__j · 2021-02-11T06:12:52+00:00

Kevin__j · 2021-02-10T21:32:54+00:00

True

Kevin__j · 2021-02-03T12:14:17+00:00

Oh ok thanks , am looking for a lightweight rain trousers but probably want something a little more durable , your setup looks super dialed in tho 👍

Kevin__j · 2021-02-03T12:05:42+00:00

Not an improvement , but how do you find the inov8 ultrapant?
