My Wild Camping / BOB
Thought I would share with people my latest camping setup.

Although I do want to prepare as such, I feel that with my latest kit I can kill two birds with one stone so to speak.
Both my wife and I like camping but decided that we would like to get away from the traditional campsites and start doing some wild camping.

Because of this I have looked at trying to create a good lightweight pack that I could carry alone or easily shared with my wife. This kit has the added bonus of being a ready to go bug out bag if required.
As we done a lot of site camping we have a large 4 person tent, large mutlifuel cooker, camp beds, etc. All things that I had previously to looking at prepping.

Some things weren't cheap and took a bit of saving up for. So going to enjoy a bit more of the outdoors and getting some quality use out of it.

The tent, sleeping bag and rucksack were from 'Decathlon' in the UK, with many of these items coming with 2-3 year guarantees. Other items were searched down for best price, such as discounted or on the 'Fleabay'.

Havent tried the tent yet or seen any other reviews, but is very compact and light, yet put up in 5 mins.

Forclaz 40 Air Backpack QUECHUA, weighs 1.55kg - £34.99 online
Quechua Water bladder for above backpack.
QuickHiker Ultralight 3 Person Hiking Tent, weighs 2.6kg - £199.00
5° Light Hiking Sleeping Bag, weighs 1.2kg - £49.99
Titanium pot, weighs 0.13kg
Edelrid Hexon multifuel stove, weighs 0.25kg and fits inside my titanium pot - £99.00
Alpkit numo sleeping mat, weighs 0.47kg - £40.00
Katadyn hiker pro, weighs 0.32kg - £59.00

Total so far is 6.5kg excluding food, water, clothes, knife, etc.
