Freezing Cold Wild Camp on Wild Boar Fell & a Chicken Curry on the Trangia

Joined by my friend Ciaran, we headed for a wild camp on Wild Boar Fell in the Yorkshire Dales.

The forecast predicted a cold westerly wind with the chance of some snow showers in the early hours. Just the way we like it 🥶.

Once we reached the summit of the fell we pitched our shelters. I was using my SilPoly Trailstar from Mountain Laurel Designs, and Ciaran was in his Durston Gear X-Mid 1P.

We were able to take advantage of the stone shelter at the trig point to protect us from a bitterly cold westerly wind whilst we used the Trangia 25 to cook a chicken curry to warm our bones.

The next morning we endured some pretty hostile conditions while we returned to the car via Swarth Fell.

A great adventure, I hope you enjoy 👍
