Pretty much anyone can cope with one cold and wet night but adding a second is a whole new arena … we’ll have to wait and see if any of those ‘kit gambles’ pay off or whether saving a few ounces here and there results in regret and all night shivering ;o)


I’ll post again tomorrow with some pictures from the start.
