This. Is. Awesome. Thank you for sharing this. I was at CL this summer and really wanted to know what these campsites were like. I hiked along this trail but never saw the sites.

Love camping in the rain. Nice video.

Cool video

Maybe consider an A frame lower to the ground for better coverage? Either way a day outdoors even in the rain beats sitting inside watching TH-cam 😁 thanks for sharing your trip!

I was going to say the title should be, "Man in his 50s suffers in the pouring rain." but you looked quite comfortable out there. I have been out at the cabin in awful rain and i did not mind it but in a tarp is next level. Nice work my man! That cot looked good.

Breathing is off please get check out and start working out 🏋️‍♀️ wholesome advice! Great video loved the tarp so huge !Where did you purchase from?!

That is one hell of a tarp you have there. It's a pity that it doesn't have a couple of tie out points in the middle so you could tie it up & get a little more head room. The best thing about camping out in the rain is that there are less people about plus the sound of the rain on the tarp is so relaxing & soothing. Thanks for taking us along. I'd contact the backpack manufacturers to ask over adjusting it - they may have the answer. Just subscribed to your channel

Great camp . Personally i like camping in the rain with the different sounds and the woodland smells. What make of tarp is that? I’ve seen a few people use the silver reflectors and wondered if it makes a difference?

HOW can someone not give you a like 👍 putting yourself out there? i camped almost a whole year. oh it rained.. i liked it 😁

Now i remember why i have a tent.

“Rain or shine” 👍 when I get the chance to go out not much will stop me.

Rain makes for great camping 😀 You have one massive tarp my friend 😱

Nice camoing! Enjoyed it very much!

Great job my friend…. Nice setup for sure…👍🏻 Those GSI mugs definitely work great…‼️ Thanks for sharing and Stay Strong 💪🏻…👍🏻‼️

Just found this channel as I was out hammock camping wow you make great vids

Đi du lịch bụi thế này phải có lều chuyên dung mới được, còn chỉ tấm bạt thế này thì rất bất tiện không che được mưa lớn 😂😅

Bluntly, It's your backpack. I have Men's Trekking Backpack 70 L - MT100 EASYFIT Not too expensive but easy to fit and wear. Im not biased on my backpack and i know there's better ones out there. I just know this one is great for now.

Found your channel and love your content. Thanks for taking me along.

Another good one Dave. Any time in the woods is time well spent. See you on your next adventure. Have a great weekend!

You are a braver man than I sir, lol! Any time you can have a fire is the best! What happens if the rain direction changes in the middle of the night...do you just 'get wet'?

right on! Always great to camp in the rain! Lucky the mozzies didn't get ya!

Thanks Dave for your efforts. It is just great to be outdoors it is good for the mind

Good Solo overnight trip! I thought the bigger tarp was a good idea, like you said it helps keep more gear dry then relying on trees. I look forward to the next one!

You worked for this one Dave! Really entertaining. Good job.

awesome new video !

Hey Dave so happy to see you had a camping trip up, I don't mind the rain while out camping either, that why there are tarps , bonus you got to have a fire , which yes does make you feel better .Had ya been in the trees you could have used paracord across the inside centre of the tarp, tree to tree , Then dropped the front of tarp down using your poles to make a roof over your head and back would be down. next time . love those containers you have they look handy. Appreciate these trips with you always fun.

Thanks for another entertaining video.

Always a pleasure to come along on the trips with you.

It was pouring...then it stopped...then poured some more...all in all a good little trip. I don't mind the rain it hides my tears!

I moved to NH a few years ago and it is so beautiful here in fall. I really want to go camping this year when it gets cooler. Bit of a warm year.

Loving the longer videos. I think I remember seeing the Happy Camper's Mississippi River video and they must have went when the water was low and their trek was boney! The fishfry looked good. What a beautiful spot to camp. Thanks for the video!

in addition to the usual tree strap, hammock and mosquito/bug net shown in this video, i added an underbelly gear sling under the hammock. i put my 55 liter capacity backpack and all its contents in the gear sling under the hammock. the hammock and gear sling did fit inside the mosquito/bug net so everything is self contained.

Great trip Dave! I think you eat better camping than I do at home, lol.

Great video David. I love the longer content and I loved the fish fry. No worries on how you clean the fish as long as you can eat it. I am looking forward to your bushcrafting content something tells me it will be pretty funny!

The fish fry looked good. Don't listen to that guy saying you are too old for solo camping. When did 50 get to be too old!

This was a timely video. I just returned from a 2-day canoe trip. At 60 years old, I'm a little like you. No one my age wants to go with me! :) The bugs were bad at the camp site, but were no problem on the water. Weird. Like you, I left a little firewood for the next person. I enjoy your content. Please keep up the good work.

Mississippi River is a beautiful area happy you got to go. What a beautiful site you found gorgeous views, nice sound of the waterfall , That would put me to sleep. Hope the bugs were kind to ya. I don't believe those are wintergreen, winter green leave texture is somewhat stiff and leathery. the leaves have a minty (or wintergreen) fragrance, especially when crushed. your food makes me hungry nothing wrong with how you did the fish. I thoroughly enjoyed this trip keep em coming Dave. Bushcrafting is fun , You can learn from mistakes . cant wait i've done some shelters myself.

Hey Dave nice video the ribs sure looked tasty , If there was pickerel in the lake they would have been biting in that wind, using worms. small island but hey things worked out you always have a great set up. thanks for trying to assist those who overturned their canoe that is the right thing. always love your videos and cinematography.

Another adventure, can’t wait to dive in and watch

I'll say it every time. You deserve a million views. Quality video and story telling.

Thanks for another great video. That is a beautiful canoe love that Maple leaf!! I have a new e-scooter still in the box 🎁 haha. I am determined. It will still be a few weeks before I'm healed. I talked to a guy who had a full hip replacement too a couple days ago. He is 41. It is great just to be out in nature. Great job David

Great video, we always enjoy when you release a new one 😊.

*"Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river."* 😂

Excellent production quality. Your passion for film is evident and your efforts do not go unnoticed.

love watching your videos dude the lint trick a classic congrats to your son well done

29:30 from Lazy Camper to bushcrafter ... real progression! 😃

Once again, you capture all of the details with your great videography. Any way you can invent an APP so I can get a whiff of those pancakes??

You had a great trip. I enjoyed watching. Good to see you back. I’ve missed your videos. Keep them coming Buddy.

This was a good trip. Now I want to explore more of the Mississippi River. Plus, I got my fish fry in!
