Nice look at budget gear! I've learned a couple of other tricks that don't cost an arm and a leg. First, I think anyone who grew up as a kid in the midwest a few decades ago, knew their feet would get cold and wet walking to school in the winter. Moms always had a few bread bags laying around from Wonder Bread, or whatever brand your store sold. Those bags still work great for winter camping. When at camp, put on dry socks and if you need to do stuff outside of the tent or get up in the night to do whatever, put your feet in the bags to keep your socks dry. In the morning, when you need to put on those wet boots or shoes, use the bags for a little while. But do remember to take them off as your shoes dry out so your feet don't sweat and cause blisters. If you don't have bread bags but you do have a dog, the doggy poop bags work just as well to keep your feet dry in boots or shoes. Another trick is to use a trash bag to line the inside of the backpack. Put all the stuff you need to keep dry in first, like sleeping bag, clothing and whatever, then twist the trash bag down and tuck it tight to be water tight. Then the other stuff can go on top of that. In the morning, when you are putting anything that may have gotten wet or snowy back in the pack, your sleeping gear and clothing will be protected in the trash bag. It also comes in handy if you need to keep your backpack in the vestibule. I stick mine right in the trashbag to make sure it stays pretty dry and protected. Another great thing we bring is hot hands body warmers and hand warmers. The body warmers have a sticky portion to put on the outside of your clothes, like on your groin or stomach. The hot hands can go down by your feet and socks. I live in CO and found some very inexpensive micro spikes by unigear and other companies sold on Amazon. A few are under $20 and pull right over your boots or shoes to keep you from slipping on icy trails or packed snow. I use spray ski wax to keep snow from balling up, but I've heard spray on cooking oil may do the same thing. I haven't tried that though. If someone sleeps really cold, like many women do, I recommend putting that yoga mat or another closed cell foam mat under or on top of your inflatable mat for extra insulation. Another thing to do is to take an inexpensive down blanket from Costco or Sam's. They are good for about 40 degrees F, BUT when doubled up with a sleeping bag, they can really add some warmth. Oh, and if bringing a chair for winter camping, the yoga pad or foam pad can be used in a chair to keep your butt and back warmer! I know you also said don't worry about Nalgenes, however in the winter, you can boil water and put it in your nalgene. Turn the lid securely and really test for leaks, then put it in your sleeping bag with you like a hot water bottle. In the morning, that same water can be used for breakfast, coffee or oatmeal. If water is left out of the tent, it will freeze. I guess the last big lesson I learned if I took a small gas canister stove to heat up my water would be to sleep with my gas down in my sleeping bag to keep it warm If its too cold, it won't get very hot, if at all, in the morning when your really want a hot drink.
Absolutely! you missed a ggod that I learned from my hillbilly.kin. Take an old pair of socks and small slits at the ends of them and wear them like gloves. This would serve to keep your arms and wrists warm and your fingers free forth those tactile things you need to do. Works great and when you need to busing your fingers you can always wear a pair of gloves over top.
Trash bags, especially those 3 mil contractor bags, can be put over yourself as a poncho, ( cut holes in them for openings for your arms & head). as well as a second one can be used to cover your backpack in rainy, or wet snowy weather. As a young man i used them to keep myself & belongings dry while hitch-hiking here in the states. It works.
@@MichaelLMylen Yup! Also makes fer a quick bivvie or you could stuff them full of leaves and have a mattress and not worry about the bugs. My other use is simply slitting them open and use them as a tarp.
Great video as usual. Useful tip. Take medicine on your camping trip. One time I forgot to take my over the counter medicine and I had bad heartburn that made my trip miserable. I take Tums and Pepto Bismol and aspirin and a few first aid supplies. Aspirin can save your life. It's not a bad idea to take aspirin a few days before and during a camping trip.
Another great video I am planning on a hammock camping trip with one of my boys the weekend of my birthday in I can’t wait to get out there again. I am down 85lbs and hopefully 100lbs by my birthday and that how I am going to celebrate is go on a hike and over night camp.
@@CampingwithSamBananas my first trip I learned that the tent is warmer with the fly on. Bring a sleeping bag even if you think it will be to warm because it may not be. Don’t put your tent broadside into the wind. Guy lines are there for a reason. Secure the fly to the tent poles when using said guy lines. Dry bag is not a substitute for a pillow. Don’t bring the whole garage. Don’t need a tent light plus a flash light plus a cell phone light just a headlamp will do for most situations. Sand gets everywhere. I could go on and on.
Love the last two videos on gear and what you have used. Would also like to see a video of you showing how you load your backpack and see how things fit as if you were leaving on a trip that night. I always look forward to seeing all your videos and I also go back and rewatch your older videos too!!!
This is another good entertainment filled video while me and my family recover from covid and flu. Though in the hospital 🏥, my elderly Dad is doing well, thankfully, this is another good welcomed positive distraction. 😊
Glad I found this. I’m going camping (on a campground) with my partner in a couple weeks and I got us the Ozark Trail 10 degree sleeping bags, the cheapest ones I could find for cold weather. I could only find one other video reviewing it! Now that I know it’s not going to be as cold out as I initially thought, I’m very confident we will be warm!
I used your old school backpack for years, and a dollar store bag lol. In my younger years I just laid on a blanket and used pack as a pillow. Boy can't do that anymore! Doing great son!
Those $1 walmart headlamps are awesome! Not bright, but cheap...and the batteries are replaceable. I have a rew for a couple of years now, and they still work. Another great thing to have is a wire grate for either a 1/3rd or 1/2 pan from a restaurant supply store. You can use them on the fire to cook on, and pair that with a pair of tongs from the dollar store and yer good to go!
Thanks for the Video, I love to car camp, short walk ,primitive, folding wagon. Most of my stuff is cheap. My husband and I are well past the century mark but it's still fun to sorta rough it lol.
This was a great one. A lot of the recommendation videos talk down to the viewer. I have all my gear, probably more than I need. However, I watched this and the earlier one. Very good content!
It's good that you did this video because newbies need to know they shouldn't spend their retirement on backpacking gear until they determine they like it. Plus, if you look hard enough you can usually find some pretty lightweight, good gear at fairly reasonable prices. Mardingtop is a good example. Gear Doctor is another. 3F UL has very good trekking pole tents, Stanley makes a great pot and frying pan, etc. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Yes I agree. Gear doctors is my favorite main sleeping pad. Absolutely love it. Thought it was slightly pricey for a beginner but it's just as good as the Nemo etc for a fraction of the cost.
That's a great idea. I always take one but mine is a bit larger and bulkier, as I partly film with my phone so I need to be able to charge the phone more than once. But yes, great idea.
Good tips for people that are homeless.. I've been that way more times than I can count.. managed to get out of it before winter.. it's always on the back porch for me..
Hi William! It's really good for sure. I like a lot of Maumee Bay stuff. Got really into their beers back in the day when I used to do karaoke at Mutz!
For flashlights, make sure everyone has their own and bring at least one extra. Menards is a good place to get them. Bring an extra set of batteries too. For utensils, go to thrift stores. They don't have to match. You may even find a usable full tang knife.
Hello Mr. Sam. Thanks for the cool take on affordable camping equipment - always good to get distilled knowledge. Somehow I started drinking bustelo these past several months, courtesy of one Sam Banana. Funny thing is I live in Miami.... it's just that I never knew they made an instant. Stay warm up there Ohio way, and hey Mrs. Bananas! Bless
Hey buddy how's it going. This was a good video man. It was awesome to see how you started out with the gear you used to get started with. Me & my family we do a lot of kayak camping trip doing the summer time while the kids are out of school. I hope you are doing well buddy. Thanks you for sharing this video.
😂 that's hilarious what you mentioned. i'm working on a bushcraft video right now- Stealth Camping but with the most ridiculous amount of gear i can carry and or transport. so far i have, just to lay on, a sportsmans reflective blanket, tyvek groundsheet, a kelty doublewide basecamp pad, a thermarest classic, a thick comforter, ranger mat, and sheet, and to sleep in- ecoopro synthetic 40°, both MSS sleeping bags, a bivy cover, and extra fleece blanket. oh and full size pillow of course. that's 10% of what i'm planning to take and already past the weight of a normal full ruck lmao it will be funny and good times tho. i have a bike and trailer. last time i did half as much as this and it was 3 trips 🤣👍it took 4x as long setting up than time using the stuff. totally worth it
i have that same winter sleeping bag and its all i use for winter camping, i got a stuff sack that works great for it, it shrinks down to about a milk jug if i sit on it and pull the straps, i love it and dont really need a better bag
It's really a fantastic bag and super warm. Eventually the main thing was I needed something lighter. But for the price you absolutely cannot beat that sleeping bag
Thank you for sharing this will come in handy. I want to try the sleeping pad. I never thought about doing the pillows like that. Petty cool. Thank you for all the hard work and for taking the time to do this video. You are simply amazingly Awesome, you truly are WOW. KEEP ADVENTURING GOD BLESS YOU 🤗HUGS🤗
Hey son do you remember a few years back you got caught in that bad winter storm at the caves? You had to hold the tent down with your body. Your telling of that night was pretty horrendous!
I don't have a ton of experience but you can check this video for what I've learned so far. I do have a new hot tent but haven't tested it. I just used the cheap one in this video so far: SOLO Overnight Camping in the Cheapest Hot Tent on Amazon th-cam.com/video/3JZbLcvTdVA/w-d-xo.html
Hey Sam these are all really GREAT tips !!! IMO you don't have to spend a lot of money on gear to get outdoors, you just have to make some well informed choices to find the best value for your money. Just make sure to avoid any chance of hypothermia by keeping that banana "fully loaded" at all times... LOL !!! :-)
Can wait for you next trip for camping... love from India and Himachal Pradesh... if you please google Himachal you will know where I am from.. it's a request
I winter camped in a hammock last year…. NEVER DO THAT you will be breathing hot air on your self and vigorously shivering the entire night. This year I’m gonna be sleeping on a cot with a sleeping bag two jackets long John’s thick pants wool socks and boots and spare dry clothes.
To me, the subject of winter camping on a budget is like me trying to comprehend the Rubik's Cube.. it just ain't happening☝️ I live in California so it don't take more than a couple full loaded farts to keep my sleeping bag warm during winter!👍🇺🇲

camping in your drive way or backyard if you have the option. learn what gear you need. thanks for sharing Sam!

My first time camping was on an island from a kayak. Man did I not know what the hell I was doing but with every trip you learn something new.
Haha dude for real! You kind of have to just go and then you figure it out the more and more you do it.
@@CampingwithSamBananas at least the learning curve is fun in this hobby.
@@CampingwithSamBananas my first trip I learned that the tent is warmer with the fly on. Bring a sleeping bag even if you think it will be to warm because it may not be.

I used to go light minimalist, but now I don’t have as much time to get out there, so it’s all about the comfort, and a six pack, flask, and a chair
