    Bro that did that test on the buddy heater is wrong, please don’t recommend, I had a scary experience with the Buddy Heater. I was in a larger RV (toy hauler) which has high ceilings, and ran it all night with windows cracked open even, I woke up with a splitting headache & was disorientated, and I never get headaches. After research I came to find that it sucked out most of the oxygen and could have been carbon monoxide poisoned, cracked windows is the only thing that saved me, and I have high ceilings I can only imagine worse with lower ceilings.. the CO sensor did not shut it off. Very dangerous. The reason it didn’t effect you the same is because a tent has some breathability but I wouldn’t trust it and I camp cold a lot. I recommend using a propane heater that go’s outside, and feeds just the heat in with a pipe, much safer

    Not to make you an Unhappy Camper but there are a lot of problems here. 1. Please don’t use those cords on trees, those will hurt trees. Straps are a better option. Here in Texas state parks “require” two inch straps but I’ve never been checked. 2. I went to the manufacturers website for specs and that hammock is listed as 115 inches long. I’m afraid that a 9 foot hammock is a lounging hammock and not a camping hammock. 3. To properly sleep in a hammock (and get those benefits to your back), you don’t lay in a hammock lengthwise, AKA “the banana”. You lay on a diagonal. This requires a properly sized and setup hammock. I don’t know your exact height but you’re definitely taller than me and the general rule of thumb for camping hammock lengths is to start around twice your height. Just from eyeballing I would say you have to be at least six feet tall so there is a good chance that you would need to be in a 12 foot hammock but regardless I think nothing under 11 feet for you. 4. You did pretty good with the Onetigris, I have one of those for loaner hammocks. 5. Proper hammock hanging is done at a 30 degree angle because as you approach zero (straight across) the forces you apply to the trees multiply. Your hang angle looked pretty good. A quick way to sloppily check your 30 degree hang is to make finger guns. The angle between the top of your thumb to the end of your index finger is about 30. 6. A good camping hammock will have a center ridgeline that maintains the proper hammock sag regardless of strap angle. To lay on the diagonal means your head is on the left or right of that ridgeline with your feet on the opposite side (to help you visualize). Off the top of my head 550 cord is the weight rating. When a hammock is advertised to support 400 to 500 pounds it is always made from basically taffeta nylon and are all more or less the same. Kammok, ENO, Wise Owl, etc. Good camping hammocks from cottage vendors are usually made from ripstop nylon and to get the weight rating you need you would probably need a double layer ripstop. If you want a good 11 or 12 foot hammock on a budget, try out a Onewind from their website or Amazon, all three of my loaners are from them. If you want to learn a lot more join us on hammock forums dot net and look up Shug Emery’s videos here on TH-cam. Or if you find yourself in the DFW area and want to go play with a lot of different hammock camping setups just holler. Hope you take this in the helpful spirit it was intended, I don’t want you to have a bad time from the wrong gear.

    Great tips.👍👍👍 BTW, I didnt notice your shirt until you pointed it out 😉 P.s, if you get a propane hose fuel filter, it will keep your heater from getting gummed up with the chemicals inside the hose.

    • @TexasFamilyCamping
      @TexasFamilyCamping 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The filter isn't necessary when you use an official Mr Heater hose. Mr Heater doesn't use typical oils in their hoses like the other brands and per their official documentation, a filter isn't needed with their hoses. But highly recommended when using non-official hoses. Now it's also recommended to replace the Mr Heater hose more often, as those oils in hoses help with aging. So the official hoses will dry rot much faster. But, I can honestly say, I'm at about 4 years now and the same hose is still doing great, and no gummed up issues.

      Per Mr. Heaters official documentation, the filter is only needed if using a hose of a different brand as they are made with oils that leach out and get into the heater. Mr Heater brand hoses do not use that oil in the production of the hose. However a replacement hose will need to be purchased more often because of the lack of those oils.

    41° isn't even worth bothering sparking up a heater where I live if you have a good sleeping bag system. I'm guessing you are down in Texas or some place that has no practical clue about deep cold. I live in northern Alberta, Canada and camp even in winter - Canadian winter - at -30°! With all that my-winter-is-colder-than-your-winter stuff out of the way, hypothermia is a risk even at +50°F if you are damp/wet and the wind comes up like on high country hikes. Fog, dew or light rain can be a real risk, but so can propane heaters like the "Buddy Heater" style heaters. When propane is burned, water vapour is created. There is enough vapour to make your clothing and bedding damp enough to not only make you miserable, but will increase the risk for hypothermia. Just thought I'd put that caution out there... I was nearly a fatality from hypothermia courtesy of my ignorance/inexperience as a young fella. Hypothermia is a sneaky thing and shivering is just the beginning; irrational thoughts and actions, listlessness and uncoordination, limbs heavy like lead are just a few signs. God bless and play safe from an Albertan neighbour.

    • @TexasFamilyCamping
      @TexasFamilyCamping 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would totally try camping at -30, BUT the rest of my family would not. The moisture from the burning propane can be felt on the tent itself, so we move in a bit to avoid touching the walls to stay dry.

    • @TexasFamilyCamping

      The beauty of the Buddy heater is that it dies if the oxygen level gets too low. It was designed to die at a higher level than what humans need. So if the heater uses up too much oxygen it shuts off before you die. This is why you need to have the windows on the tent ventes at least 18 inches to allow a continuous draw of fresh oxygen. I don't like being so hot so we had every window vented about 18 inches.

    Why don't hikers realize that they can take eggs and bacon on their hikes? Rub some mineral oil on a grocery store egg and it can last 6 months on the shelf and your pack is the same as a shelf, dummy. Shelf stable bacon is good for at least 6 months, who goes on 7 month hikes? Outdoor folks be stupid, most of the time, IMO.

      Friend, I want to apologize to you, I was passing time with my old friends Jim Beam and Jack Daniel when I made that comment and was an ass, and I'm sorry. Please accept my apology. I think I WAS projecting some stuff onto you and I'm grateful that your rebuke was as kind as it was. Again, I ask for your forgiveness. Peace between us from here on out, I hope.@@TexasFamilyCamping

    I stopped last night just before midnight in Waco, TX. I got much needed gas then asked an employee if it was okay to park overnight as I was falling asleep on the road. The young man informed me Quick Trio policy is no overnight parking. I told him my predicament. I told him I was surprised as all other QuickTrips have said yes and will tell you they prefer their customers pull in and sleep keeping them and others safe. This young man repeated his stance when I told him I was asking to be courteous instead of just parking but I did see a class C, a van and 2 cars overnighting in the parking lot. At this he started speaking louder, which was rather embarrassing, stating the policy again and that if I did he wouldn’t call the cops on me but couldn’t guarantee the next shift. I asked him even if it is a truck stop one like this store? He said it is for trucks only no other vehicles. I told him okay thank you. I will see how far further down the road I could go. This store is at S New Road and I-35 access on the southbound side.

      Thank you for sharing this. It can be tough for a big company to share their corporate policy with all the employees. This sounds like a single individual that has taken the rules into their own hands.

    Solutions searching for a problem.. if the ground is so hard that you can’t pull your stakes up by hand, you’re either driving them way too far, or you are using the wrong stakes for the soil type.

      Most places we camped in Texas we were driving the stakes into a thick clay.

    im rdy for someone to wait till dark, wait till theres lights, then fly the drone out to the light and see what exaxtly it is if possible

      A lot of the drones don't have the range necessary. DJI is coming out with some extenders, but you have to pre-plan for where you think you will fly. They claim my drone will go 6 miles, but I lose signal at 3000 feet away.

    My apologies, I noticed a few mistakes in the video after it was published. Kaylyn had some criticism for my proofing procedures. She might get herself a job if she isn't careful.

    It's basically the same situation as choke canyon state park. The water levels have been going down over the years and people slowly stopped going. I still haven't been to this one, it looks like a great park to me. I experienced the same at Copper Breaks state park. I was the only person there. Hiked a couple trails, walked around the day use and lake, even took a shower. Nobody. All I saw was the park ranger. Great tour of the park, hope to camp here this coming fall

      The positive is, it provides us with a potential last minute camping spot. The negative, if the money dries up the state might close the park. That's my fear. I hope you enjoy camping here in the fall.

    Site 96... Noted. Thanks for that! I've noticed a trend at TX state parks where the truly primo spots are non-electric.

    • @TexasFamilyCamping

      It might have to do with things like not wanting to run sewer and other utilities so close to the water. I've been noticing that trend all over the US. "You can park by the river with now sewer or across the street with full hook-ups."
