    THE only channel that doesn’t have a video title of ‘camping in my Hilleberg or Durston’…a down-to-earth normal guy passionate about camping. Well done you are one of only 3 camping channels I subscribe to now. The others are all pretentious numpties who need to bang on about their expensive tent.
    Please don’t ever change your channel is great 👍

    Love these videos. Not a fan of tent camping… for many reasons but tarp and bivi is an incredibly minimal camp, and when you can be happy, warm and safe with that kind of gear is a nice feeling.

    Hi Dan, I have ca Kelly Kettle, on one trip I couldn't find anything dry to burn, however I always carry a trangia stove. I thought I'd give it a try to see if it worked. It worked great it sounded like a bloody jet engine when I fired it up, I also actually cooked the meals on it for three kids and my wife. The trangia burner is now part of the Kelly Kettle kit.

  • @shaungillingham4689
    @shaungillingham4689 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Well done Dan, come rain or shine our woodsman is there. Rough conditions, but you seemed to have done a good job with the tarp, perhaps a tent under tarp would have been better, a little more comfortable. Also you can dig a small trench around your camp to drain off the water. You do a great job talking to the camera, I hate silent videos! Have a very happy Christmas to you & family.

    In the 5 years I lived rough in a tent 2015-2020 freezing temperatures were ok, you can keep warm, rain difficult to dry clothes out if you had a hike back to base regardless of waterproofs. High winds worst for anxiety in the tent in a woodland. You could hear branches/ trees breaking but had no idea if they were the ones that would crash down on top of you.

PS always notice you open food packs with your teeth Lol... small non locking neck knife? if legal in UK....

    @boxiedog 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That mess tin set looks as though it might work with flameless heat pads that react with water to heat. I use a flameless cook set quite a lot where you can't really light a fire. Great for pasta meals, etc.

    Using those fire starter blocks with the Kelly Kettle was a good trick. All you needed to convert that into a warming fire was a windscreen! The first time I used a Kelly Kettle I made that cork mistake. I took the cork out and the pressurized steam and water hit my hands and bare arms. I got a bit of a burn.

    Hi Dan, very brave to camp out in wind, it sorts the men from the boys. I was out this weekend (7,8,9,10 Dec) the wind was gusting 45-50. I was in a wood with old oak and beech trees and branches were falling all around. It was a little like Russian Roulette lol. Keep these videos going, they are very entertaining and informative.

I'm looking forward to your hot tent vids like you have no idea & plan on taking your advice being that person that gets out again & does it in the new year!.....😉

    Just picked up the same hammock liner myself,but haven't used it yet. Have 4-5 days of rain coming in the Pacific N.W. and I'm itching to get out in the woods.
    I've tried the noodle bowls with hot seseme oil, and it's a mistake to dump the whole seasoning pack in, more like 1/4 to 1/3. I found out what happens the following day. Lol
    I usually pick up the 24 pack cases of diferent flavors, chicken, pork, beef, shrimp and repack in 1 gal ziplocks so they dont go stale.
    1 pack w/japanese toasted seseme oil (to taste) some flaked red pepper, a small clove of garlic. I'll often add freeze dried meat and mixed vegetables I've re-vacuum packed as well. Perfect Ramen!
    With freezedried goods you can pack a surprizing amount/variety of goods (1-2 weeks easy) just add herbs/spices, rice, beans, flour, noodles/pasta etc.
