    Isn’t it amazing what happens when nature is left alone to take its course. Even with bigger trees affected with some literally washed away, the smaller plants hung on in the rock bars and will thrive. There’s a campsite where live in the flood plain of a nice, wild backcountry stream. Every year the spring floods take everything away, sometimes even the fire ring stones. You can’t really tell anyone has ever camped there. I appreciate videos like these showcasing nature’s power and the effects from it. She’s always working on her domain. All we can do is look on in awe and adapt to what she does. Take Care and Stay Safe… especially when around those widowmakers!

    When I wore out my Zpacks Duplex I decided I would never spend the money for a dyneema tent again. I thought about the Lanshan tent but settled on the Durston Xmid for $260, I think I spent. I have no regrets on this polyester version and will only use polyester from here on out. Best of luck with your future hiking plans. All the best, Tony ✌

    • @wanderinggraybeard3985

      $260.00 not bad and I do like the Durston Xmid. Senior Hiker 77 had done a review on the Lanshan so when I saw the open box sale on Amazon I grab it. Now I just need to put it to the test. I still want to setup a bike for bike camping also, after watching your videos I got the bug. LOL Thanks for watching Tony! WGB
