As someone who has bikepacked near the AZ/ Sonora border and spoken with BP who said "We had eyes on you" I would say chances are BP knew you were there and determined you weren't a threat. Great videos JYF! I particularly enjoyed the one with you and your lady in my neck of the woods around Tucson. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your time in showing us this vid I live in Somerville TX we use to have an abandoned town outside of Brenham but they tore it down when people moved in and the neighbor farmers complained of the sewage smell since they ran it to a pond and they weren’t trying to buy the old 1900’s homes or paying property tax so yeah they were chased off and old homes torn down
Hello James, I found your channel today through Shawn Kelly Corporal's Corner, .hi from Australia 🇦🇺 🇺🇸. Keen to catchup on your videos, Good Health respect and kind regards
How weird, I have never heard of the owl pellets. I am currently camped at City of Rocks in New Mexico (I have seen you camp here before). I was in the office headquarters this morning and on their table in the sitting area there was a actual owl pellet with a tiny skull in it. That was the first I had ever heard of such a thing and then I was watching your video. Twice in one day! So bizarre! Man oh man, You got your boots dirty on this one!
Owl pellets usually appear in large piles.because the owl regurgitating them usually does it at its roost. Some colleges and schools I've heard will and can buy them from you.
Owl pellets carry pathogens. Be extremely careful in a closed room or especially a deer blind where barn owls left lots of pellets. You can get severe cases of bronchitis.
I was also turned on to you by Shawn Kelly. I am enjoying what I see so far. Can't wait to see the rest of your videos. Hoping that you make speedy recovery.
Boooobbbaaaaaa on the DASH!!!!! I dig this overnighter. I would have been tweaking like I was on drugs at the sound of things walking around! My paranoia spiked when you dimmed the light. Another epic stealth video thank you for taking us with you JYF!
Great stealth camping episode! When it gets buggy or really cold out I actually use the shemagh to cover my face! It's thin enough that I can breathe through it, thick enough to be a bug barrier, and a layer of insulation right up against my face which makes you feel warmer and comfortable more than any kind of actual warmth difference
For stealth at night, best to use red light vs white light. Red light does not affect the rods and cones in your eyes, whereby white lights do. It takes approximately 30 minutes for your eyes to readjust to the dark after being subjected to white light at night. If you were using white light, wanted to extinguish it to remain conspicuous, you vision would be impaired in the dark then if you have not used red light. Of course, the alternative would be to wear an eyepatch over one eye preventing one from being exposed. That’s why pirates wore an eyepatch going from lighted topside decks down to the darker lower decks or holds of a ship they were attacking.
That town was thriving at one point. A stop over just short of the border. A quant peaceful little town. Until one day ... Interstate 10 came along killed it
I grew up in an old general store, that also served as the Post Office I'm betting the Post Office for that town was not it's own building but was probably in that old grocery store.
I’m going to say this is my favorite video from you. ❤ You took back my youth and sent me on the best adventure I have ever had. I wish I was young again and go where you were. I used to go to the places you were tonight . Have those adventures and don’t stop!!!! Great video!!!❤❤❤ don’t ever stop!!❤! DONT EVER STOP
I grew up near the Smoky Mountains in East TN. Lots of woods, humid, hills- bugs. Every summer was mosquito fest. I thought I knew what lots of mosquitos were like- until I moved to coastal Ecuador. Now I get bitten several times on a GOOD day, lmao these guys are insistent and smart. They wait till you start using your hands to attack your face. This looks like a super fun camp adventure, great channel! Just found it the other day.
Thanks for this stealth video. I have lived within 300 miles of Acala and never knew it existed! You are exposing West Texas history and things that I will probably never be able to experience. Again, Thanks for this history lesson on this little West Texas town.
I saved this vid until i could sit down, uninterrupted. I've re-watch the stealth camping series so many times, its good to get a new one. Quality vibes james.. as usual 👌
WOW James this one will go down as one of my favorites. I promise you my friend. I heard footsteps in that building. Dam it man. LOL 😅. Keep em coming.
Hello 👋 James, thank you for the tag along on your outdoor adventure. You are correct, that is a spooky place. You have a lot courage. All the best to you. Stay safe out there. 😮
Bats are good for getting rid of mosquitos. My mom has five giant bat houses around their house to help out plus they have a skeeter attracting machine that takes out thousands of them every night. When they go camping they have a whole bunch of candles in pots on poles that they stick in the ground around the campsite. I think they are citronella candles?
Owls what?! 😮 I learned something new today. Thanks for a great video, James! The Cuervo Negro music was fire as always. #stealthcamping #campingadventure
Love your videos brother, been a fan for a while. You inspired me to get the Tuff Possum Haversack and the Green River Hunter. Keep up the great work! Oh, and please keep the stealth camping videos coming! Lol
New subscriber here, love your content bro🤟😎👍 I watched 13 of your vids before I got hooked. The simplicity ,honesty and no bs are the foundation to quality vids. Good stuff!!!❤💯💯💯💯💯
James, gotta say this was really a cool video! I had commented earlier on the skitters, nothing makes you free like dropping down somewhere you weren't quite sure about!
Nice video. I always enjoy your over night camps. I live in the north of the country and I would like to share a modification to your tarp and blanket that really makes a difference for me. The blanket is a great insulator but has almost no wind resistance, the tarp is great against the wind but not an insulator. The blanket INSIDE the tarp will maximize the strength of both. I have added snaps to the edges of my blanket and tarp to hold them together and that makes an awesome bedroll that insulates, and resists both wind and rain. I use a queen blanket and tarp size so I can have half underneath me and half over me with one side and the ends left unfastened. This gives the advantages of a sleeping bag but can be flung open to respond to an emergency or distubance.
@@scout06171 To be honest, I was probably inspired by the jungle roll concept. I wasn't in the military (glasses too thick and asthma resulted in rejection) but there are plenty of ex-military in my circle of friends. There IS an advantage to my civilian version, I put snaps on several different blankets so I can tailor my insulating layer to seasonal conditions. It's a bit more versitile than the poncho and woobie combination as long as I pay attention to the weather. At this point I rarely use or even bring a sleeping bag because the freedom of movement and ability to easily regulate temperature by opening the roll or sticking a leg out is really more comfortable.
@@JunkyardFoxI DID listen to your explanation during the video. I meant my comment as more of a suggestion for modifications to the equipment for future use. In the moment, you do whatever you need to do to make it work for the night (which is what you did👍) another way to deal with the problem on the fly would be to use pebbles and small bits of cordage to tie the tarp and blanket together like tarp buttons on ridgelines or stake outs.
Hello Junkyard fox outdoors Advent I like where you camp, glad you got out of their safe that abandoned Ghost town it was small but really inside I don't anyone was going to bother you thank you for showing me this Abandoned ghost town
Love your videos very well done I've learned alot from them and cuervo well he's in his own class that man knows how to play I enjoy his music very talented man Ty for what you do
Nice, James! I'll bet biting insects are responsible for spilling more human blood than all the wolves, bears and snakes put together. So, even if it's goofy looking, I don't go anywhere outdoors for very long without a proper bug net. Those big ol ants reminded me of a sample from the olden days, when they charged for telegrams by the word -- one message that saved some coin: "ANACIN HOSPITAL. ADAMANT BITTER ASININE PLACES." 😮
While you were shining your light in that building, after you stopped moving, there were what sounded like 3 distinct foot steps! They were almost as heavy and loud as yours, but not quite.
Just a couple points in safety. If you are worried about the mules make sure you keep your knife on you and get your fire arm out of site. Not sure if you had it sitting out when you were sleeping.
dude i absolutely love this channel this is a wild video being from north texas myself i understand the mosquitos and animals and BORDER PATROL lol great video!! 😎

Hey the corprolsaid to come over your way and say hi. Looks like you have a new fan member. Chuck adams from Indiana 30 miles from Cincinnati ohio.😊
I feel like this is what a apocalypse would feel like all alone in a ghost town
Yeah James hurry on the burrito and make me one 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Flowing water is NOT a breeding ground for mosquitoes. It is clean stagnant water.
yes, and the flowing water slows to make stagnant water in the fields
@@JunkyardFox
True and Im thinkin you shoulda pointed that out in your video
since there may be some who aint aware of that distinction. 🙂

Yep, creepy would be a correct description. I've seen abandoned cotton mills near the Texas NM border. Knowing the history makes it less creepy.
Great show!
I love stealthcamping videos!!!
I started watching stealth camping videos because of Uncharted Travel "alone" series
I started watching stealth camping videos with Steve Wallis, inwhich led me to this channel.
I was also turned on to you by Shawn Kelly. I am enjoying what I see so far. Can't wait to see the rest of your videos. Hoping that you make speedy recovery.
Im glad you upgraded from the .22 James. You can never be too careful!

Very cool! Loved the solemn, melancholy vibe you captured. Thanks for the video!

appreciate the love my friend, im glad you enjoyed it! plenty more adventures to come
That was an awesome experience mate.👍🐕🤠🇦🇺
Glad you enjoyed it
My favorite outdoors channel.
appreciate the love!
Excellent video brother! Loved this one!
Boy an interaction with the Border Patrol would have added a lot more excitement lol
Glad it all went smoothly. Good Stealth!
yeah but getting handcuffed and detained is a bit too exciting for me lol

Hope you enjoyed it!
Great Location! Awesome video.
Mosquito coils burn slow and last a long time. I used them in Arkansas during the summer, they worked very well
24:25 when I saw the lights in the window I thought it was something in the house looking out the window at you. lol.
A good ninja rule to remember is...
IF you can see them THEN they can see you.
New favorite channel!
I love your videos. It’s fun to watch. Keep it up and be safe out there. Watching from southern Arizona.
Thanks, will do!
awesome camp good to see you next time
WOW James this one will go down as one of my favorites. I promise you my friend. I heard footsteps in that building. Dam it man. LOL 😅. Keep em coming.
the whole night, there was odd sounds coming from that house
You timed that one right with the rain!
Good choices all the way around. Especially the Sig. Glad you came out safe! Awesome video.
Great video, thanks 👍
Well, one good thing about bats, they eat the bugs.
Hello 👋 James, thank you for the tag along on your outdoor adventure. You are correct, that is a spooky place. You have a lot courage. All the best to you. Stay safe out there. 😮
I like those Coleman candles, I think they work well! And smell nice. 🤷♂️
Your awesome and awesome video be safe out there

Great call on the owl
Excellent channel, love your videos!
Keep it coming, thanks!
that is the first "ghost" town that I've ever seen with street lights.
Owls what?! 😮 I learned something new today. Thanks for a great video, James!
The Cuervo Negro music was fire as always. #stealthcamping #campingadventure
Great video that was fun to watch! You matched the music perfectly as well. Cheers, Dave.
Your timing to leave was perfect lol. Fun video thanks for bringing us along.
great one, very interesting.
Ay, cool video dude. First time i've seen you pop up on my feed.
Awesome video !! Love the stealth camps, and abandoned towns and buildings, keep it up brother !
Best item I got for mosquito is a micro mesh jacket complete protection from all biting insects weight a few ounces!
Wow, what a great adventure! That was epic, man! Love seeing you put yourself and your skills to the test in these videos, my friend!
Great vid James!!
Love the stealth camping videos, stay safe and thank you.
Great reference with Courage the Cowardly Dog. That video was 40 minutes well spent.
Love your videos brother, been a fan for a while. You inspired me to get the Tuff Possum Haversack and the Green River Hunter. Keep up the great work! Oh, and please keep the stealth camping videos coming! Lol
Another amazing adventure I wish I could do things like this 👍👍👍

That’s basically what we old military guys call a Jungle Roll. Good for to have figured it out by yourself.

I originally tried that, nut the winds kept making my tarp fly off me, so I put the blanket on top to add weight
