SOLO OVERNIGHT - THUNDERSTORM, TARP SHELTER & TICK BITE
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- Hello! Welcome back to my channel.
Went out on another solo adventure, this time at the Tipi Platform Camp.
To see this platform build visit my husbands channel: • Full Treehouse Platfor...
*This is private land**Do not take boughs or green wood from a park or crown land*
I cooked a delicious camp dinner for one and had a blast under my tarp listening to the rain and the thunder. I stayed dry and woke up early to the sun peaking up over the trees and the birds singing me awake.
My peaceful morning was then abruptly interrupted when I discovered an unwanted visitor. Around 6 am I found a tick feeding on me. I held it captive while I tried to continue my morning the best I could. I made bacon and my famous crispy coconut strawberry pancakes. Hope you enjoy. xo.
I submitted the tick for testing and was prescribed antibiotics.

MY GEAR:
Tick kit I have (use the tweezers): amzn.to/2PbnKkD
My boots: amzn.to/3gYwgQm
My sleeping bag: amzn.to/322giP7
My packs and tarp: www.frostriver.com
TICK SAFETY:
wear long sleeved tight fitted clothing and closed toe footwear. Tuck your socks into your pants (you don't want any exposed skin).
wear light coloured clothing (so you can better spot a tick if it gets on you)
if your country allows it, clothing with permethrin is good to wear in areas that have a large tick population.
use an insect repellent containing DEET on your clothes and exposed skin (follow directions on package).
regularly check your body (especially hidden areas such as back of ears, armpits, back of knees, groin, scalp).
Place outdoor clothing and bedding in dryer on high heat for 30 min to prevent any live ticks from coming home with you.
If you discover a tick feeding on you:
Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible (do not grasp the body) and pull the tick out slowly with even pressure to ensure mouth parts are removed and body is not crushed.
Wash area with soap and warm water
Put the tick into a container with a lid or a sealed plastic bag
Bring the tick to your local health unit for testing and visit a doctor. Make sure you tell them how long you think the tick could have been on you - the timing is important for health professionals to rate the risk of transmission of lyme disease or other bacteria.
DO NOT
Grasp around bloated belly and squeeze the tick
Use a match, heat or chemicals to try and remove it
Young lady I am 56 yrs old been in and out of the woods my whole life there is no way to tell how you got a tick on you but just watching the way you handle yourself in the woods is very impressive! My wife is older but tough like you and I am so thankful everyday for that don’t let anyone rob you of your skills you are doing an awesome job and for what it’s worth this old man is proud of ya!
k9razz thank you so much! Appreciate that 😊
@@TheTimberLife I, at 67 former scout, am amazed to see that girls nowadays love the woods and are so ingenious💚🤷♀️🙌🤷♂️💥
@@TheTimberLife
I'm 55. You are a lost generation that needs to come back. I have no idea how I got to watch a video like this (recommendation) but it was kind of jaw dropping. Genuine, authentic, female. A https rare species these days. And, as others have mentioned, don't call yourself stupid. Making mistakes is how we learn. The only stupid one, is someone calling you stupid. This is an upside down world. Nature is how normal should be.
nothing like the outdoors, find a safe place to camp where the rain and wind can't get you too wet, sheltered by the trees, You can sleep under a canoe. And a campfire is a great comfort, 🌹🤷♀️🙌🤷♂️🌹
@@TheTimberLife As someone who lives in a tick infested area, I can tell you they arent that big of a deal. They have to be on you for 24 hrs to give you lyme disease. I always feel them a lot faster than that. Then i just yank the little suckers off. Its confusion that makes people think they will leave their heads in you. They wont. Humans have really weak tissue paper like skin compared to dogs and cats. They scratch with claws that would shred us after all. So their skin WILL rip a ticks head off and keep it inside. With your skin, they are more likely to take a chunk with them. They do that a lot to me. #themoreyouknow lol
It's nice to see the younger generation having an interest in the wilderness we spend too much time indoors and in cities we all need to have a break from society and getting back to nature is always rewarding
Yeah for views on TH-cam. Lol
so good to see young people enjoying and respecting the wilderness. I'm an old australian man and I love the bush.
well done young lady.
I'm 63 and have been camping all of my life. I also contracted Lyme disease from a tick. While I don't downplay the seriousness of Lyme, it's not the end of the world. In the 10 years since I got Lyme, I've only had two recurrences. You're doing great. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your insight. This is reassuring. Thank you :)
That was really cool. Don't fret about that tick. I was 7th Infantry Division in the early 90's and had a tick in the absolute worst place a man can get a tick. Use your imagination...Tweezers and a lighter, and very steady hands, and he was gone...I miss the days and peace of the rough country...You handled yourself well
Jim Price Thank you!
Well done video...Brave young women and a good cook. The rain always makes me sleep better when I am camping . Be safe and keep a Winchester by your side when you are alone. Thank you.
Far from stupid. Tics are everywhere... I did like listening to the rainfall on the tarp. Nothing better when your outdoors. Just missing lightning & thunder. Cheers & keep the vids coming
Please don’t listen to the negative people. You are an amazing woman. Thanks for taking us along and sharing with us everything you do in the woods. I am 59 years old and have been doing the same thing that you are doing for a long time. I enjoyed every moment of your video. Just remember the people that give negative comments are negative about everything in there lives and are the first to tear you down. This is the first video I watched of yours, you have me hooked. I’m subscribing. Keep the video’s coming.
I use a portable cot now - get up off the ground - same thing happened to me years ago on the Appalachian trail - found two tics in the morning while sleeping on the floor of a shelter. One was on my foot and the other behind my knee. I wasn’t as smart as you... saving the tic to be tested! Dang I need to remember that!
Thanks for sharing!
Have fun out there and stay safe!
Strong, smart competent and beautiful, Really nice vid, I'm just a bit envious, what a great way to spend the night. Heartwarming to see someone enjoy time out in God's country. You me of a cat lapping up milk with eyes closed and a smile on her face, just beautiful.Thank you so much for sharing!
Not only camping alone but doing it well. And flying a drone through the trees! Bonus.
Good on you! A night in the forest! Few things are better. Ticks are a tough problem, even for the highly experienced. A wide brim stays on my head. I check it every few minutes and still find one from time to time.
What a beautiful setting, love that platform and tarp! Ticks are everywhere and there's only so much you can do. I can't hardly walk out in the yard and definitely not our back field without the potential. Checking yourself is difficult, obviously requires a mirror but is the best defense. Caught quickly you can pop the evil things off pretty easy.
Pancakes cooked in coconut oil. I'm down with that for breakfast. You are amazing, and the best of us have taken precautions, and still had ticks get on us. Keep camping and bush- building.
Illinois Sasquatch thank you!
Rain on canvas has to be one of the most relaxing sounds going....... as long as you stay dry ;)
DieyoungDiefast yes agreed! Very soothing :)
Sasquatch watching you in the darkness like 0.0
@@1Deejay7 The watchmen won't bother you if you don't bother them. If you have an honest heart they will help you!
@@flea-kh7om welp I'm screwed.
Yes it is!! Tin roofes too!
Your video just popped up and it looked interesting so I watched it and you did a wonderful job, your not stupid at all, hope to see more videos. You are a woodland princess 👸🙂🌹💐.
Scott Neal thank you so much!
Your are awesome - as an outdoors person and a filmmaker! Loved it when you spit out the food. I know that's probably a silly comment, but you made me smile when you did it.
CalDistro haha thank you! I debated editing it out but it makes me laugh and I was hoping others would too haha
nothing stupid about learning as you go. Bravo for being out on your own and getting out in nature. Carry some antiseptic and don't worry so much. I spent 22 years in the Army Special Forces and have been bitten by many unknown things in the dark. I'm still here. Good on ya for getting out in the woods. Enjoy the solitude.
I was hammock camping a short while ago with my 8yr old daughter and she will love to watch this
Hammocks are Awesome! I have one hanging in my bedroom. I sleep in it every night! Happy hangings!
Nope, you’re not stupid. Ticks are gonna tick! 😊 Thanks for sharing this nice day and night in the woods. Camping was one of my favorite pastimes that unfortunately got away from me now that I’ve settled in Louisiana (Did lots of time in my 20’s out in the woods all night while stationed at Ft. Polk, though). It got me thinking I need to inventory and update all my gear!
First thought was "my god it's like an outdoor apartment". There was so much stuff there. Great video.
Haha ya.. a little home away from home :)
Can't wait to be back home in Canada I miss the forests. When I was a kid I spent a lot of my time exploring the forests on our family farm. I think it's very healthy to get outside and spend time in nature. We need to disconnect from technology more then ever.
100%!
Caitlin, thoroughly enjoyed it. I love camping in the rain.
Barry Bechler thank you!
Great video, thank you for sharing! I love the forest, been spending a lot of time in the woods the last few years here in France (planting and taking care of fir and larch trees). I've been bitten several times by ticks, they're much smaller here, quite hard to see, just today when I got home I had one on me but luckily it hadn't yet bitten and I managed to get it off! So you're not stupid for having been bitten by a tick, as for the bedding we live and learn (I initially thought it was a good idea then remembered the creepy crawlies!) but you could've picked up the tick somewhere else anyway! Cheers :)
I thought I was the only person that goes hiking and camping carrying a large size heavy cast iron skillet. Nothing better than cooking on one.
It's also good armor if someone tries to shoot you in the back!
So good
You keep being you and doing your videos. I have 5 grand daughters and I want them all to grow up strong determined women. They need roll models. You are a good example. Keep up the good work! YOU ARE NOT STUPID. Always keep learning.
S K Schmidt thank you so much. That means a lot 💪🏼 I’ll do my best.
it was very smart to have fine it and save it to get it check.
Nope. Not stupid at all. Ticks are unstoppable and it’s just a part of enjoying outdoors. I’ll be showing my young daughter your video who enjoys camping - you look like a great role model. Thanks for sharing your video.
thanks so much :)
Very far from stupid, and in reality it's just that ticks love company and find ways to sneek in and join in the feast of life regardless of how vigilant you are. Don't knock yourself, there are plenty out there that will try to do that for you, and the truth is, as your video shows, you are not afraid to push your own limits and/or to take care of yourself while doing so. Great video.
passerby thank you!
My name is Yvo, I am German and I live in KTOWN .... You are such a great woman, absolutely enchanting. I think what you do is so great .... Unfortunately, today I am severely visually impaired, I can do all these things Don't do it anymore .. I was a soldier / mercenary for a long time. When you come to Germany my house is your house. You are so wonderful.-.... God Blessings an be careful lady ... Yvo
I really liked the engineering of the platform, and so I just had to click!
Finally someone that talks and shows bit by bit of the progression
Even the most battle hardened special forces soldier gets ticks, its part of the deal of being in the woods. The key is try to prevent but just accept and deal with it when it happens. Good on your for a solo camp, most people don't have the courage or the stomach for it.
thanks :)
I used to camp with my son a lot and miss doing it. We built a number of shelters and that was always fun too. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
I liked the raised platform on which you spent the night with the tarp shed on. Yes you have to be very careful about the health issues while in a forest or woods..
I am new to your channel and have really enjoyed several of you and your husband's most recent postings including a wonderful birthday celebration on the island and later at your cabin. You both come across as a very warm and loving couple and love being in each other's company. Look forward to watching your channel on a regular basis and thank you both for sharing your amazing outdoor wilderness experiences.
Thank you so much! Happy you discovered our channel.... looking forward to sharing more adventures!
Jason from Maryland here.
You had me at, spitspit, charcoal
hahaha thanks! Cheers from Canada :)
@Billy Burke lol
Yea it's me
I can't believe it's the real billy burke!
@Billy Burke
Refresh my memory?
@Billy Burke
Lol! I figured
Thanks for educating me about how to handle ticks! You are impressive.
Hey, I got 2 ticks in Australia when I was there for 3 months. We used tea tree oil to kill them and then used tweezers to remove them. Nice drone shot at the end, that was super small hole in the canopy. I would have crashed.
No, not stupid, you cooked excellent food, kept dry during a rain storm, and completely enjoyed the reason you went out in the first place. Ticks are part of the hazards of life just as having a car wreck while driving and I don't know many people who are going to quit driving because of the potential of having a wreck. Keep on living girl.
Don't be so hard on yourself. Learning from mistakes is a wonderful thing and builds who we are as a person. Love from the 🇬🇧
thank you :) Yes lesson learned... love from Canada!
Your not stupid at all and I hope not 1 person says you are, I think it's awesome what you do hun camping out deep into the woods for days is how I grew up and I still love it, I just broke out my bugout backpack a day ago to make sure I had all i needed I feel a outing coming on.
I liked the view from the platform - looked like it was really high up in a jungle canopy.
Refreshing change of pace from all the male camping/bushcraft youtubers, great work
Hank thanks!
Yes there's nothing like a good thunderstorm when you're camping I just got back from a camp trip up north in wausaukee Wisconsin I was camping for 9 days by myself but I sure wish I had someone else to camp with.
this is an amazing video, the first of yours I've seen. I am looking forward to watching many more. I like the direct, deliberate way you have of relating your experience. You are full of knowledge and are very talented. Thank you
Wow first time I’ve seen you I think you did everything great Solo camping is a different kind of experience Especially if your used to having others with you must be extra carfull with your sharp tools&how ya do things.love your camp&can tell it’s not your first time out👍🤠I hate ticks some years we have’m bad in Wyoming but comes with the Territory lol we have to be aware of bear snakes mountain lion wolfs keeps it interesting 🤠you just got a new subscriber here ...be safe have fun&blessed trails
Bush Life Aholick thank you so much! Agreed! Solo camping takes more mental and physical strength than when your with a partner.
The Timber Life,,,so glad to see a Young lady comfortable in the woods”👍🤠
The fact that you were honest and transparent about the tick situation shows character. Keep doing you boo boo. I’ve known plenty of hardcore grunts who aren’t as savvy as you.
You did great, way too hard on yourself. Been in the outdoors all my life and just did a trip to the Ozarks and found a nice tick embedded in my thigh. It happens if you’re out enough no matter how careful you are. Nice job on the filming. New sub, have seen you with your husband, but didn’t realize you had your own channel. Best of luck, I’ll keep watching.
I was wondering who carried ALL the gear out there.. LOL Good Hubby.
Great video! Thanks for posting. You’re definitely not stupid....everyone makes mistakes and ticks can literally be anywhere including underneath your shelter. If you’re gonna be in the woods for any length of time it’s bound to happen. Luckily the odds are in your favor for not contracting anything crazy.
The Tinker thank you
Great video! Definitely going to try the coconut oil pancakes!👍 It’s a good tip to know about the ticks living in the boughs. Thank you! Peace!
thank you! Yes try these pancakes and let me know what you think! I can't make pancakes any other way now lol.
The Timber Life Will do! ✌️
You were not stupid. The pine boughs fit perfectly with the video theme, and you taught a valuable lesson. Natural bedding from the woods can often have something in it you may not want ... I hope the tick and you were not infected!
Never saw your channel before. This video popped up randomly in my feed. Loved it ...instant sub.
monkeysize thanks so much!
Tu video es excelente! Muy buenas las tomas del dron al comienzo y final, y los planos de cámaras también. Felicitaciones por la forma de transmitir tus vivencias! Saludos!
This is so relaxing and comforting..specially since I've been stuck on lockdown here in Manila, PH fot almost 6 months because of covid19..thanks for making this! +1 sub from me
Genious build. Lovely food. Nice fireplace. Relaxing and calming Lady.
Love this video. 😀
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed 😊
Found your channel today. Great spot to camp at,, I'm jealous, lol. No actually Happy for you. That is an Awesome platform you built. Very impressive with the Canvas Tarp set up. No netting for face/head with bugs etc?? I pray you don't/didn't get Lyme... Love falling to sleep in the rain, many things in the rain are fun.
Absolutely beautiful! And the scenery wasn't bad either!
I’ve grown up in tick country and can say without fear that I am petrified of ticks. I buy the horse pre-mix of permethrin from TSC and spray my cloths before a hike out. Not worth taking a chance. I’m always impressed with videos that show hand built craft, but take a moment to reflect on those critters that bite because they drive you mad if you aren’t careful. Take care and keep healthy!
SuperSymun thank you. Ya I’m definitely more fearful of ticks than I am bears by a long shot. I might make a trip to TSC, thanks for the tip.
Grew up in the country in Louisiana where even the most diligent yard keepers get ticks and red bugs on themselves so NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO SAY ANYTHING about your scrutiny. You did what you should have Loved seeing a young girl n the woods by herself and not afraid of being alone or of the dark. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!
Wanda Stewart thank you!!
Apart from the Pesky Tick, it looks like you had a great time - Any time under the Stars is great.
You're not stupid Don't ever think that anybody thinks you're stupid cuz if they do they're the stupids.
You're doing what most only dream of. You are very inspiring and only haters will put you down.
yes you are right! Thank you for the kind words :)
Nice job out there ...ticks happen to the best of us ...love the content keep it up! New sub here
Carlos G thanks so much!
Growing up and living in the city my entire life, I've always been a bit fascinated with bush craft. Even with the little mistakes here and there you did way better than I or most people could have done
thank you! appreciate that :)
Thanks for sharing a great relaxing video, i am going to try my steak like that now. New subscriber from Australia 👍👍
Shad Donaghue thanks so much! Let me know how you like it!
I grew up in a military family so survival and bushcraft have always been in my blood. You carry yourself very well. Disregard any negative comments you might receive on here and keep up the good work!
thank you so much! Appreciate your feedback :)
Any time from one bushcrafter to another.
Pls never say stupid.
Inexperienced yes.
But Stupid
Never
Seconding this. Ticks happen, even to the most cautious and experienced. The site is well chosen and constructed. I’d simply recommend trading out the boughs for padding you brought in, or fully wrapping it under a tarp burrito style next time.
I have had like 5 ticks in my life and lymes disease when i was 7.
I think you have done well I wish my daughters were more like you they were when they were kids and I used to take them out camping and trout fishing and they loved it but when they became young ladies it all changed but my brother and I were up the North of Scotland trout fishing in the wild and all the gear had on and we had two ticks on us we got them off no problem but hey there a real pain in the butt so what your doing is real cool and I love what your doing 👍 love and peace from Bonnie Scotland 🏴👏👏
"I know in the comments some people are going to say I'm some stupid young girl"... This hurts my heart. Please don't ever utter these words again please.
It's a phrase women grow up hearing often, and throughout their lives. What is most strange is that it's not the woman who actually has the inferiority complex.
@Dan Trebune Is it any wonder when men/boys always find a way to put them down? This woman is a lot brighter than many guys I know and wouldn't even know to check themselves for tics or how to build a fire. Plus she films and edits her work, no too small a detail in itself.
@Dan Trebune it's because women are always criticised for so much they do, just look at the top comment. A lot of men are too busy judging women instead of helping and encouraging them, especially when it comes to "typically male"-stuff like construction or tech-stuff.
@@manmaas I think the same thing .
well maybe because of the comments similar to this and the amount of unnecessary compliments and love that you show to a child make it so hard to count you as an intelligent person so the negative comments has big impact even though they are very rare.
as one of the comments out there that posted on here. I agree with him that you're not stupid and honestly, I admired how you're out there solo camping like this. I would say you made a minor mistake, but you also took the tick out alive and get yourself tested for any virus from that tick. That is pretty smart of you. Don't count yourself out, I like your video and happy camping.
thank you :)
I've had many many ticks in my life and I guess I've been fortunate to never caught any diseases. I hope you don't either.
2Tiedup thank you. That’s reassuring to hear.
@@TheTimberLife Same here. Hopefully you'll be just fine.
@R-77
Lyme & Rocky mountain spotted fever are the two main one we think of but there are many more
Thank you for the video. Just to help alleviate your mental anguish (although I do recommend you get checked regardless) generally the ticks need to remain embedded for ~ 24-72 (depending on the type of tic) hours in order to transmit disease. Which is why frequent tic checks are recommended. Coconut oil, I will try it some time. Thanks again.
NoWorries. Thank you! Ya hopefully I’m in the clear
I don’t know if you were looking for a life mate but I can promise you, after this video and your personality, you’ll always find one.
Aho!
Thanks for the coconut oil tip! Nice looking shelter. The "departure" shot was very cool. Subscribed!
thanks so much!
The camera work alone is exhausting
Very cool wooden chair! I enjoyed watching you cook using cast iron on the campfire. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I would not use "stupid" as an adjective to describe you. Adventurous, Tenacious, Resiliant are much more appropriate.
Jim Dockrell :) thank you.
I agree. Having the wherewithal to erect your shelter on a raised platform, hike everything in, climb up and down a lot (keeping you in wonderful shape), and fixing what appeared good meals is inspiring. Avon use to make a product called "skin so soft" that was fragrancy, but it kept ticks from latching on. They may have crawled, but they would not latch on. I used it a lot in search training and on actual search missions. Doing the frequent tick searches, was a great idea. Therefore you are by no means "stupid". Good to see the mindset change about women camping, especially in the wild. Enjoyed your video, young lady.
You are awesome! The way you handle yourself, your tools and you always cook stuff that looks delicious!
thank you! :)
I was going to write something typical "guyish" thing like how cute you are etc. while enjoying your video until you said: "...I'm just a stupid girl..." A) Don't worry about what people say, and B) No, my friend, you are not stupid at all. You put yourself out there and tried is what counts. We only learn from our mistakes. Good for you doing what you are doing. Keep up the good experience! Camp safe!
BeeeHonest thank you! You are right! Appreciate the reminder :)
SIMP!
Thank you for sharing. Although I am a lightweight backpacker, I still enjoyed your video. I use an 8 x 10 tarp and I really enjoy rain at night and especially T-storms. I appreciate the note about cutting boughs or green wood on public land. A lot of bushcrafters do this on public land and there is no need. My inflatable sleeping pad is very comfortable, weighs less than a pound, and packs up very small. Private land you can do what you want.
Start thinking Thru hike. Like the AT or PCT. You got the looks to be a TH-cam star.
Good looking food! yummy...yeh, saw the pine boughs...nnnpooooooooo!
I've been alone in the wood my whole life.
Very impressive young Lady. It does my heart good to see a younger person taking the outdoors so seriously and then handling themselves so capably. And take it from a old Airborne Infantryman & Outdoorsman, Ticks happen !
Thank you so much!
Paraplegia has me imagining outings so thank you.
Looks like an amazing spot
Put a lid on your frying pan next time, that will keep the ashes out of your food
So those tree climbing shots.... beautiful.
That meal looked great gotta try ur way cool platform n rock cooking area let us know bout tick test ,ok be safe and stay well
Stellar. Love the cinematography.
I have a tip for you, one great nature home made tick repellent;
It contains;
Essential oils:
15 drops of lemon grass
7 drops of true lavender
5 drops of peppermint
3 drops of eucalyptus
All this oils put in a dark glass bottle and mix
finally add
50 millilitres of neem oil
Mix again and voila ✌️
Rawtomas thank you for this! Big fan of essential oils... I’m going to try this.
HCQ cures Lyme disease. No more worries.
I love the smell of lemon grass it feel's both cleansing and awakening to me. But Eucalyptus to me is like a gift from the Gods. not so much the smell but if steamed it will do more for your sinus than you can imagine and as for the headaches that come with it , you can forget those too. it's quicker and more relieving than any medications i've ever tried. I swear by the stuff and as i said i'm not really a fan of the smell. 100% natural oil though don't be fooled by the knock offs , they don't work as well at all.
@@tangopapajuliet9469 also cures breathing.
Your not stupid in any way shape or form. Kudos for your bravery and courage to live a life most will only ever dream of. Great job!
thank you!!
Can we get a hell yeah for having a brave sister join our ranks as outdoors people?
No, because that propagates the assumption that it's unusual for women to be outdoorsy.
Love that raised platform and tarp setup, simple paractical and roomy. Congratulations! awsome adventure the perfect gettaway place, greetings from a small rural town somewhere in Mexico.
Thanks so much! Cheers from Canada :)
Eating heavy foods like meats before sleeping can keep one awake. The tick looks flat still and no parts missing from it. Did you have it tested?
You are not stupid. Tics are everywhere . I’m a landscaper and outdoors in the woods 90% of my time. I carry a tic key . It’s a little remover on a keychain. Have had great success with even the tiniest bod ticks being removed
How far did she have to haul all that gear? The cynic in me says not far or not alone. Easily she was carrying 120 ltrs of volume in three bags and probably close to 25-35 kgs of gear.🤔. Too many of these videos don't show the effort or the background assistance involved in this sort of camping.
If I'm wrong, then more power to you.
Smoking your bedding boughs and tick spray would help some.
I never said I had walked for miles. There is a trail you can sometimes drive on when its dry and on this day I was in luck.
Wonderful trip, and what a nice editing! Loved it!
Michael Svensson thank you so much!
@@TheTimberLife Not a fan of camping outdoors anywhere ever since I was in the military, that was enough for me! Just one question - did you have a firearm on you? If I ever was crazy enough to spend time all alone or with a few friends in the woods or anywhere else in some remote place outdoors ever again, I would not do it without a loaded pistol in my pocket. Call me paranoid but the "never get out of the boat" quote from Apocalypse Now is a rule to live by!
Maybe NOT sleep on Pine LIMBS to keep that tick count down. We’re not going to judge ya. It might look cool to film but not worth lime disease.
Agreed!! Your doing great out there girl, don't be so hard on yourself!! Can happen to anyone! I have to check now everyday after I play my round of Disc Golf!! Lol! Awesome set up you have out there btw!! Be safe!!
