    Camping was amazing. The Mt Oberon hike was… intense but super fulfilling. Might need to upgrade the swag’s mattress though. Also gotta shout out to my new car, AC that actually works is a freaking treat!

      We used to run up Mt Oberon as kids, we camped at the Prom every summer. I did it again just a few years ago and fitness is wasted on children.

        Gosh isnt it just! my watch said I hit 200bpm at one point. I mean, i know I’m not mega fit but I guess all the dog walking isnt enough.

      As a frequent swag user, 11/10 recommend investing in a stretcher to pop under it, changed the swag game for me.

        I might have to. Gonna try a cheaper solution first. I’ve camped in WAY colder conditions than that before so I’m not totally sure why it was so cold, but the ground was hard as a rock and you deffo felt that.

          What swag do you have? So many come with shitty inch thick mats. One of my camping buddies got a bit of foam and cut it to size, swags bulky as shit now, but he seems to sleep like a rock in it.

            23Zero Dual 1100. I’ve been really really happy with it so far, this is the first time I’ve had a complaint to be honest. But I’ve never used it on dirt-so-hard-its-concrete either. its supposed to have a pretty good mattress in it, but my mate in a cheaper swag also had a bad time. he was talking about going to Clarke rubber and basically getting a yoga mat type material to go under the existing matress.

              I’ve only seen that brand looking at awnings, looks like pretty nice swag though. Clark rubber thing was basically what my mate did, only he cut it down to size himself.
