- Spending the night in the New Zealand bush under my tarp. The tracker was put to work harvesting my firewood and I enjoyed a nice campfire lit with my flint and steel.

Good on ya mate! Good to see a young fellow kiwi out there doin' it
Thanks very much! That means a lot and I enjoy doing it. Cheers
@@BackcountryKiwi Just watched Pt 1 of your Canada trip. Awesome stuff! Are you over there on holiday or living now? Did you have any bear/animal protection?
@@scottbeatson3881 I was over there in March, but had to come home. I had bear spray on my belt but I didn't encounter any dangerous wildlife. Cheers
Awesome vid bro. Thanks for sharing. Very inspiring
Cheers dave, I really enjoyed that trip.
Great video! Great to see NZ bushcraft, and someone as young as yourself getting out there. My kids and I enjoyed the watch. Thank you.
Thank you very much. Glad to hear you guys enjoyed it.
Cheers
I am from NZ aswell nice video and thanks for sharing. Nice knife! And good knowledge you have of our Bush and plants. Been watching so many overseas videos so good to see our beautiful back country
Thanks very much
Nice man that's some awesome mossy forest you found. Great bit of manuka firewood too!
Cheers bro! The moss was pretty cool (and comfy).
That manuka was a good score, kept my fire going for a while.
Cheers
Really enjoyed this. Great work.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it 🙂 cheers
Great job out there!!
Thanks very much!
great video well done cant beat nature I love camping!
Cheers mate. It sure is nice to get out!
Thanks
I've been watching Canadian Camping TH-camrs for a while now and decided to look out for some fellow New Zealander videos. Good video man, subbing now and working through the rest of your videos.
Hey mate. Thanks for the support. I hope you enjoy the videos. I even have some canada camping trips 😉.
Cheers
I also want to get into camping NZ is a perfect place for that
It sure is! I hope you can get out and enjoy.
Cheers
Thanks for the video learned a lot and can't wait to go camping
Awesome hope you have a great time!
Great video mate, you bush couldn't be any more different to what I'm used too. You should do a bit of a run-through of the gear you use.
Thanks mate! I've been considering doing a video like that, maybe for my next trip.
Cheers
Really enjoyed the video mate. Great to see some NZ content because our bush is alot different than the american stuff TH-cam is full of. Great to see you out there and smashing it bro! (don't forget the salt and pepper next time ha ha ) 👍
Cheers man, glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks!
Good old kiwi survival skills.. solid bro.. love the kiwi outdoors..
Thank you for the vid 💪🔥❤️
Thankyou for watching bro. Just trying to share my experiences with others. Glad you enjoyed it
Hammock tents are the way to go now saves alot of work making something to keep you off the ground and they're enclosed with netting keeping mosquitoes at bay 👍
Thank you Richard. I've never really had the want to get into hammock camping. They definitely have a place! But I prefer the ground haha.
I'll have to give them a proper go at some point.
Cheers
Great Video !! Felt like i was there with you :)
Thanks alot! Glad you enjoyed it!
great video mate
Thanks bro, glad you enjoyed it!
This video should have more likes
Cheers for the compliment. I appreciate it :)
Your editing is getting much better cheers choice vid.....
Cheers bro. Means a lot 👍
Awesome mahi and cool content, keep it up brother!
Thanks mate. Looking forward to another trip like this hopefully soon!
Nice video buddy. I like your productions,
Cheers man 👍
interesting film👍
Thanks!
Excellent video and great environment to camp in. My worry is that when it rains, your bed will be wet, looking at your camp setup. The water flow will be going through your camp.
Haha yep this has been pointed out before and it was also something I considered when I set up here. I was only there for one night and I knew there was no rain forecast so I decided it was worth the risk.
I appreciate your concern though.
Thanks
Really enjoyed your video mate.
Cheers man. Thanks 👍
great video. love it 💪💪
Thanks!
awesome video mate keep up the good work
Cheers mate. Thanks very much 👍👍👍
Nice to see some kiwis going out on their own and camping where they please, rather than having to pay for DoC huts all the time.
Cheers. I really enjoy it.
The doc huts are useful though, especially for those first starting out.
Thanks for watching
Maybe s fold out sae would be the go on the manuka its alot if work to hack through a log.
Yeah just having fun!
Thanks!
Good knowledge & energetic, Ive given you a sub, I also do New Zealand Outdoor videos, some are bushcraft, the silky or a bow saw used earlier might have made wood prep easier, I have same issues with flint and steel, good on your perservence.
Thanks Dave. I didn't use the silky saw earlier as I was trying out different methods of breaking/processing wood.
Cheers
Great video and it sucks about the salt and pepper.
Thanks mate. I always forget something haha.
Cheers
Hey, it’s good to see people doing bushcraft in nz. Which part of nz is that? Thanx
Thanks man this was in pureora forest park, the bottom of the Waikato.
Cheers
@@BackcountryKiwi ok, thanx!! Is it possible to camp in a similar way somewhere in Hamilton or Cambridge or anywhere near north shore /Albany area without outdoor fire restrictions? Thanx!!
👍👍👍🍺
Thank you!
Love this 😇
Hey! Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
*Good Job Mate*
Thanks you very much bro 👍
Great video bro you do any hunting as well?
No I don't. I'd like to some day.
Cheers!
I like that knife you got there bro. Perfect for NZ, What is it?
It's a tracker/WSK style knife. I absolutely love it, it can take a beating and keep on going! Cheers
Very well made videos. Where'd you get your canteen?
And pack. Curious that the sleeping mat is the back support.
Thank you!
The Canteen is a heavy cover titanium Canteen set.
The pack is a German army infantry (I think) pack, and the sleeping mat is a Germany army folding sleeping pad.
Yeah it's a pretty cool design, I no longer have this pack, but it was great one.
Cheers.
Great vid! Definitely deserve more views, keep it up!
I'm also wondering what model is your knife? It looks really useful :)
The knife is a tracker style, also known as a wilderness survival knife (WSK). Mine is a hand forged custom knife. Thanks for watching mate :)
Love it! Take me with you. California USA sucks! 😕
The USA has some pretty beautiful spots but thanks! NZ is awesome.
Cheers
Nice video mate. It looks like the West Coast?
Thanks bro. Nah this was in Pureora forest park in the North Island.
Cheers
@@BackcountryKiwi ah ok, my mistake. It looks really similar to West Coast bush. I havent spent that much time tramping in the NI I suppose though. Regardless - cool. :)
i'm wondering how old are you?
I'm 18. Cheers
Good stuff mate!! Really interesting camping!!! Where was this?
Thank you!
This was in Pureoea forest park in the north island of New Zealand.
Cheers
Today mate I am just watching your vid and enjoying it so far I see you have the tracker and what look like a silky saw would that have not been easier to cut down the tree rather than hacking it with the tracker? Also when you leave your camp site to fetch wood, miss and or water do you ever worry about not finding your way back? The reason I ask is I am also into solo overnights and want to expand my skills. Keep up the excellent work cheers Bro
Yeah for sure it would have been easier to take down the tree with my saw but using the tracker was more fun 😁.
When I'm away from camp exploring, gathering fire wood etc, I try to keep in mind the general direction of where my camp is. I've only had one scare where I was wandering around for a bit trying to find my camp but apart from that I haven't had any problems. Best of luck out there bro, you'll love it 👍
What's your canteen called and where can I get 1??
That is a heavy cover Canteen and you can get them from heavy covers website.
Cheers!
hey, just wandering where this is because i want to go camping with my friends on my birthday
Hey this was somewhere in Pureora forest park.
There are a couple of cool campgrounds in this area. Just jump on the DOC website and have a look.
Cheers
i own 378 acers of land up north
Awesome bro, that must be great. If love to own something like that someday.
Cheers
Do you know of any good places to do some overnight bush camping near the Auckland region?
I've never done any camping in that area but you can check out DOC'S website or go to the bushcraftnz forum (the forum is pretty dead) and in the drop down menu under home, you will find "a bushcraft map of NZ" that has a bunch of places to get out in the bush. Hope this helps bro. have fun
@@BackcountryKiwi Thanks for your reply man! Also keep up the good content!!
this is south island right?
Nah mate. North island. Pureora forest park
where was that?
Pureora forest park. Thanks for watching!
Fire 🔥 is big issue did you obtain a permit??
How do i know where can i lit 🔥 fire???
Check out DOC website bro.
I didn't need a permit here, it was open fire season
Wheres this in New Zealand
Pureora forest park.
Cheers
@@BackcountryKiwi Thanks! 👍
I would love go for camping but without fire it is boring!!
Haha even without a fire it can still be fun. But yeah, a fire definitely makes it way more fun!
Do we need permit ?? Or it ok ??
Is fire allowed in the area you live? Im jeolous..
Yes it is providing there is no fire ban.
Cheers
I wish I could be with you
This was a great camp, thanks for watching!
Pitching your tent in a hollow resulting in a cold wet bed if it rains is hilarious. But there's nothing funny about cutting live trees for tent poles etc.
Haha this was a while ago but yes it is in a bit of a dip but it was only for 1 night and I knew the weather forecast was looking good. Also none of the trees I took down were alive, they were all very dead.
Cheers
Nice bro 😁👍..
i am from INDONESIAN 🇲🇨
COME JOIN US to INDOESIAN bro.. 😊
Cheers
cheers 🍻 👍😁

Haha not a penny lol
Get some Bic lighters bro sheesh 3$
Thanks ill keep that in mind
Real men don't need or wear gloves
Haha they can come in handy at times!
Cheers
Nancy has himself some gloves😂
