    With all that padding, it’s more like a Princess and The Pea camp out. 😂 JUUUUST PLAYING. I’d do at least the same. 👍

      Let me tell ya', I've been drifting the country for the last four years. I've slept in just about every environment you could think of. And, in that environment, the ground is... bumpy.
      If you don't have padding, you're either inexperienced, a bit on the slow side, a masochist, or as tough as nails.
      LOL... ALWAYS take padding with you, if at all possible, or find something you can use as padding. If not, you get little sleep, and spend the next day in a haze, and even if your just camping, that makes it more likely you'll make mistakes, lose things, hurt yourself, etc.

    Broham, you need to just keep a mini set of spices in your car trunk. I use several small, cheap travel salt-n-pepper shakers for salt, pepper, cayenne, curry, cinnamon, other spices and keep it all in a cleaned-out plastic Ovaltine jar in a corner of my SUV's steel security drawer. Used a label maker to label each shaker with what's in it.

    The next knife I purchase will be your "Snake Eater." I've had my eye on it for awhile, but I've been making my way (as a drifter/nomad) across the US, on my way to Alaska. So, I've had to forgo buying a few things.
    But, I'm in the final stretch of my Walkabout, and the "Snake Eater" is going to be one of the first things I buy. Brilliant design. It will be on my hip, 24/7.

      @@JunkyardFox Yeah... I think I am. I didn't realize it, at first. I to told myself I just wanted to find a cool city/town to settle down. But, the longer I've been gone, through all the headaches and hardships, I realized:
      I like being free.
      As Socrates once said: "I am neither Athenian nor Greek, but a citizen of the world."
      It's changed my life. I no longer value money and material possessions. Nothing wrong with money, and I have a couple things that would piss me off to lose. But, everything that I need and want can fit into my backpack and haversack.
      I value experiences. THAT'S what people will regret, on their deathbed. The extra hours to get a promotion, saving up money to buy things they don't even really want it care about... at the expense of the experiences they COULD HAVE HAD. I think many people will regret things like that, and far sooner than they think.
      My next stop? Juneau, Alaska. I'm going to spend this summer there, stay until next spring. I need time to do some research, get better gear. Then, in heading into the Nahanni Valley (Valley of the Headless Men) in Canada's Northwest Territories. I have reason to think that an EXTREMELY elusive and xenophobic tribe of native people lived there, and hopefully, still do. I won't bore you (any more than I have... lol) with the details. I'll just say that, there is nowhere left on this planet (land-wise) that is less explored than that region. Not even the Amazon.
      Whether I find them, or not, is irrelevant. It's like Hunter S. Thompson once said:
      “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a ride!"

    Dinner looks wonderful even without your special marinade. Yes, that Knorr Mexican Rice mixture likely had a bit of salt within it so not all was sad about the spice level. You did fine.

    Good vid. Looks like somewhere around the TorC area...?
    In the summer, cots work great for staying off the ground if you still want to see the stars. Hammocks are popular as well, if your back can handle that sleeping posture...
    I had an "assigned roomie" during one extended TDY many years ago who was an amateur chef. He told me to always use the spine of the knife to scrape food off the cutting board into your pot, bowl, etc. Saves a lot of wear and tear on the knife edge. One of those "DUH!" moments for me... Made complete sense! Just my twin Lincolns...
    For wool socks, you can't beat Point 6 or Darn Tough! Both have MIL/LEO/VET/First Responder discounts. Check 'em out!!
    Something to consider for anyone wanting to sleep out in the winter like this, if there's room in your bedroll, put your jacket, shirt and pants between your sleeping bag and your outer bedroll layers. This keeps them warm, or even dries them out if they got damp, and prevents you from sweating into them during your sleep, making for a chilly morning waiting on your fire to get going. If you want to sleep in clothes in order to "be prepared", have two sets and change into your clean/dry clothes for sleeping while the others are between your layers staying warm.
    Now THAT'S a knife!
    Keep it up!

    I found the plastic fresnel lenses work better than the high mag, but small glass magnifiers.

      @@JunkyardFox yeah, it seems counterintuitive, but I have done quite a bit of testing with them here in AZ in the winter when the sun was much less strong, using dry grass, pine needles, etc.

    james would you ever use a super folder - the cold steel 4Max scout as a main knife or even a backup - i hear great things about that knife

      honestly no. i dont care for folders, or cold steel as a brand, to be frank. ill take a fixed blade any day

      @@JunkyardFox I agree - a solid full tang knife is the way to go for compleat reliability - but a tuber I sub to has broken many fixed blades - I think they all broke under extreme intensional abusive testing - only a few survived - one was the 4max - the higher end better steel seems to be less durable - I like to watch equipment tests - a knife is such an important item - it has to be bullet proof - hopefully we never have to test our knives to such extents

    Maybe take a stick and carve a spear point on it for those pesky snakes ☺️ until you can use a more useful tool after that?
    I know you have some Victorinox knives, as I've seen in some of your other videos, but was wondering what you thought about the RangerGrip series? More specifically the RangerGrip 58? I have that one and like it a lot! ☺️ One hand open on the main blade is a must for me!

    Hey! I'm up north ftom Quebec, Canada. This spring will be the second time I go camping in the wonderful south west states... About the gun part: a gun pistol in the bag and the shot gun in the car... Is it reckless camping with no weapon? If it is: any area to avoid? My route is Oatman az, Joshua tree ca and Tuscon az...
