Due
to a knee injury sustained just before Christmas 2025, this was my
first Wild Camp of 2026. A climb u Great Hill from White Coppice to a
spot close to the Old ruin of Coppice Stile. A lovely sunny, but
incredibley windy evening. Great to be back on the fells and
undercanvas again.
The Tent is my 3F UL Gear Lanshan 2 Trecking Pole Tent
Tent pitched, sheltered by a stone wall on the slopes of Great Hill
Looking towards Hurst Hill (on the left)
On the other side of that wall, it really was blowing a gale
Warm as toast in the tent, with the foil Ma, the Bestway R7.3 Slep Pad and the OEX Fathom 300 sleeping bag
And Fray Bentos Chicken Curry and Rice for tea !!
Very "Tussocky" grass, but surprisingly comfortable
Kettle on, time for a coffee
The moon rising above Great Hill
Lovely sheltered pitch
Sun setting over The Fylde Coast
