    When I was about 7 or 8, my Dad took us camping behind my family's property in Farmville Va. A creek ran through the area and Dad gathered some rocks for a fire. I'm 47 now and I went back to the camping site last year and the rocks were still in the same place. He passed in 92 so it was great to see something that he did for us when we were kids.

    I love this channel! I used to think there were only two ways to camp: roughing it with almost no gear and coming home miserable, or glamping with all the expensive stuff. Well. here we go - there's a big ass middle ground where you can have fun, don't have to spend a ton of money, and not feel like you're morally superior for being a minimalist.

  • @sailor-rick
    @sailor-rick 4 ปีที่แล้ว +143

    Unasked for advice: Plant some pines, now, so that in in several years you can start to see a pine forest grow up on some of your cleared field. You could start with a quarter-hectare, 144 saplings spaced every 4 or 5 meters into a tree grid (perfect tarp spacing). Pine forests are GREAT for camping because the dropped needles keep the ground cleared and are soft to sleep on; the pine resin is great for firestarting and making pine pitch; the long straight timber makes for good tarp tenting, etc... Also, around the periphery, you could plant a few Christmas tree saplings. Growing pines is about the easiest tree farming on the planet. They grow fast, require very little maintenance. CHeers. P.S. Leave quite a bit of space between the house and the pines... just in case of fire.

    • @doloresreynolds8145
      @doloresreynolds8145 4 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Rick Ritchie Just don't plant them too close to any of your buildings, because they burn well, and are soft enough that the tops often blow off. Also, if you intersperse your planting with hardwood/deciduous trees, your forest will be healthier, you will have a better windbreak, and you will have a better variety of wood for different uses (long burns, for example). Ps, Xmas trees require a couple of prunings during their 7-10 year life, maybe a bug treatment. Do check on sales limitations if you plan to sell any, as you know.

      I have seen in a documentary that it's best to plant various sort of tree. In fact, if I remember well, the big fire that hit Calgary a few years ago it was partially due to the fact that it was a pine forest. I wish I could remember more. I believe I saw it on "La semaine verte" on Radio Canada.

    I love this channel. I just found it last night and I didn't quite know why I loved it so much. I have been friends with a lot of outcasts and punk rockers. Recently I know that a lot of my friends are facing potential homelessness and I think that this channel has dignity, exploration and a positive attitude about not living in a house. I don't think that homeless dignity is the main thrust of what Steve is doing, but I can garauntee that people in that situation could really use some positive vibes and mentality and how-to stuff. I love that Steve always lets people know when he messes up or forgot a tool, and then also says that everything will be OK.

While I pride myself on my back woods skills , and I stay practiced in them, when I want a fire, I want it NOW, and the torch is by far the best way to go. Ditto for the use of the four wheeler; I have a blown right knee, a bad back and arthritis; I still enjoy the great outdoors; I simply don’t hike. I hunt with family or friends, fish from a boat and camp from a car (or friend’s four wheeler). Please don’t feel like you are less an outdoorsman because you don’t hike. Each of us enjoys nature in his or her own way; and each way has an esoteric beauty of its own!!! I love your video and your channel!!!

    I have such a major love of outdoors and adventure. I'd give anything to play like you do in the Alberta woods. My relatives are scattered throughout Alberta. My grandparents were original St. Paul homesteaders. Happy camping Steve. PS. Take good care of yourself with that hip. They have improved hip replacement surgery alot.

    Love your vids and it’s a plus that I don’t have to pause when my grandkids come in the room, no bad language, thanks
