In this video we got caught in a thunderstorm for the first time while testing out our new tents, the OEX Bobcat and the Wild Country Blizzard 2. An absolute rollercoaster of a camp featuring thunder, lightning, torrential rain and an anxiety fueled night!

We camped in The Lake District's Great Langdale, at a spot up near the popular Stickle Tarn to revisit the place where we first got the bug for this amazing hobby all those years ago.

Remember to stay safe out there, especially in adverse weather. Since this trip we have expanded our knowledge on thunderstorms and recommend you listen to this insightful podcast with has some vital tips for if you're ever caught out: https://backpackinglight.com/episode...
