Last woodland camp before lockdown

Last Solo Camp Before Lockdown

Posted on March 31, 2020April 24, 2020

In a post on Instagram I mentioned that I needed more practice off-roading, as much of what I’ve been doing with the Jimny has only been camping. Mat from North West Overlander commented that I should join his small group for a few lanes and camping in the Yorkshire Dales at the end of November….
