Sub zero adventure

[Stevie B]

Hi all,

Just back from my little overnighter.
Temperatures were cold but the fire was warm and my arctic sleeping bag - Hi Gear Summit 350 Sleeping Bag (although quite bulky but wouldn't leave home without it) kept me and Lola toasty warm .

Within the camp there is a fallen tree and this is perfect for firewood.
Roast chicken and some chorizo burgers were enjoyed by all.

Some photos for your viewing pleasure...

An interesting 'growth' on this tree...


Believe it or not, we pretty much cleared this area all the way to the fallen tree (a lot of dead wood)


The set-up


The most important thing...warm vino


Well, after a warm Lola that is!

Hi David,

Yeah, it's at the back end of Bishopton beside Formakin Estate.
Are you from this neck of the woods (pardon the pun )

[palerider]

Awright Stevie, great pictures and by the sound of it an great wee adventure.

Formakin Estate looks interesting, im in Renfrew and ive never been in that neck of the woods, im looking for somewhere new to explore would you recommend it?

Hi palerider,

Yes, it's a nice quiet spot, about a mile trek.
Happy to take you there after the snow comes and goes.
