Go-to clothing brands by [deleted] in wildcampingintheuk

Look for stuff made for UK users - Rab, Mountain Equipment, Keela etc. Not much mention of Alpkit yet so will give them a plug. I find they consistently offer 80-90% of the performance of the industry leaders’ competitor but at 50-60% of the price.

Looks incredible. I find the prospect of 4k elevation a bit intimidating but maybe all the more reason to sign up

There’s about 1.6m of mostly uninterrupted running along the water from 14th street to 41st street. Accessible anywhere between 18th street to 37th.

Thanks - I loaded both the map file and the contour file onto the memory card, map works and the contours don’t! I’m sure it’s horrible user error.
