Great ideas! Thank you

I need to save some of these space saving tips.

What is pie iron sourdough?

@@hartvenessa A Pie Iron is a tool you can use to cook sandwiches over a campfire: www.llbean.com/llb/shop/45792 ^kw

Pie iron s’mores!

My thoughts exactly! 💯

Baby wipes are much better than toilet paper.

Any ideas for using paper straws for 2 ? How to seal a paper straw?

​@@offroad6309 You can't bury baby wipes in a cathole, though - you have to pack it out. Which is so gross!

Yeah you've never been in the woods have you? Let me ask you this one question Daniel Boone, are you supposed to get all that stuff in a backpack. Or do you need to carry a full-size wagon behind you when you go out? I mean really you're going to bring all those dishes to a campsite? You'd be better off bringing paper plates you could burn. And you're going to stick a whole big roll of paper towels in your bag? You're going to cut a toothbrush in half to save weight, but then you're going to bring a heavy Mason Jar full of matches with sandpaper glued to the lid? Instead of a small box of matches in a half size Ziploc sandwich bag? And you're really going to f*** around with toothpaste dots when you can get a tiny tube about the size of your finger you don't have to mess with? Let's not forget carrying an extra laundry bag and bungee cords. And how many sets of clothes are you going to take out to the woods? Most people only carry to Sets, the pair they are wearing and the pair they wear at night. If you find a water source you can always wear one pair of clothing while you wash and dry the others. Just how many pair of pants and shirts do you think you're going to get inside that backpack? And how many water bottles are you going to carry? I mean good grief she has one bottle she uses for a lantern, I guess you're not allowed to drink the water out of that one or it wouldn't work as a lantern. Then you have another bottle she wants to wrap duct tape around. I guess you can drink the water out of that one. But then she has another bottle she wants you to pour hot water in to put at your feet. Sure it will warm them up. But you have to take it out because it gets cold pretty quick and then it'll make your feet cold the rest of the night. And you can't use the bottle with a tape on it or it will make the tape off sticky and sticky stuff will get on everything and the tape will be hard to remove from the bottle. Yeah these are great camping tips for people who have never been in the woods, and should probably never tried to go to the woods. You listen to this person and you're going to get jammed up hard.😢

@@jamesbowen5573Yikes! That’s a lot of words, lol. When we go camping we take three vehicles, so yeah we take a Whole roll of paper towels. I think you’re thinking of hiking for miles and miles into the wilderness with a lightweight backpack and sourcing your water from a stream and pitching a tiny canopy. These are just tips and you don’t have to use alllll of them. Just take what fits your style. Hope you have a lovely day

@@organicmagic8822 yeah I camp out of my Jeep or off my motorcycle sometimes. I don't take an entire roll of paper towels or a four pack of toilet paper for a day. Of course if you have three carloads of people you might actually need a roll of paper towels. How to people that they don't traditionally camp. Going to a state ran campsite with electric sewage and even bathrooms in a shower is not camping. Neither is sleeping in an RV

And...because things happen, I would tape shut the lids and place inside a plastic baggie. Or wrap in a towel and use a rubber band to keep place. Great idea until you lose all your spices! I saw a vid that the lady had one of those round dispensers with individual compartments. Think that would work just as well and you can store this one standing up.

@@donnabacon4681 Thanks for this update! Much appreciated. Can you share the link to the video with the round dispensers? I'm having a hard time visualizing what you're describing.

👍👍

Yeah I'm sure that'll comfort anyone during a nuclear war.😆

You enjoy scripts?😅

It’s the delivery 👍🏼😊

Yea..... mason jar is heavy.... terrible tip.... carry a lighter

I carry spare matches in a small waterproof container just in case i lose my lighter.

Hi Nancy, I usually put them in a plastic bag and stick them towards the top of my cooler so they don't get too cool but stay fresh.

What makes her a queen; and why do some people just throw those titles around like candy? 🤷🏽‍♂️😂

By “inclusion” do you mean that they included a woman in this video? If so yes right on sister!

@@HunterMann So glad you weren’t sensitive about it

And you can use the baking soda for dishes too.

Yep. Small pill bottle or waterproof tin. If you can afford it, a small fire starter ( metal flint thing, givves off sparks, dont know real name ).

Yes that was a detail I caught too. I sense this is a college student that was brought in as an actress for this instructional video. Whether or not she’s gone camping she is simply reading a script written by staff from L.L. Bean who are very familiar with camping tips, and could probably publish a book of 300 camping tips but instead they are releasing the tips slowly to the public. Good marketing

@@HunterMann it’s a very nice lady and good quality video but not necessarily the best tip to add chapstick to the tent 😂 even if it’s not a bear, it could attract rodents, etc

😊

😂😂😂 but no, really I dream of that as much as I dream of camping ❤🏕

Rice will help🤗❤️🐝

@deborahdanhauer8525 thanks! I'll try filling one of the compartments with rice. Or, now you've got my brain going...I could put a little desiccant packet in one of the spaces to absorb any excess moisture.

@@bodang158 Yes, those little packets they put in a small bottle of vitamins might be the right size. I had a salt shaker especially for camping and I put rice in with the salt. The rice was too big to go through the holes with the salt. It worked great, but you have to change out the rice every few months. All that shaking makes it disintegrate. If you separate the salt from the other spices, it should be ok.❤️🤗🐝

​@@bodang158To keep spices from clumping in damp weather put desiccant package in a ziplock bag with the pill box.

If you ever find yourself sleeping on the ground in cold weather. Heat 5 or 6 rocks and dig a long whole/trench where you will sleep bury the hot rocks in the shallow trench. It will keep you warm most of the night. Keep more rocks heating in the fire in case you want to switch out. Choose very dry rocks or they can explode.🤗❤️🐝

@@deborahdanhauer8525 I’ve slept on the ground with it snowing and never needed more than one large rock, and no trench. Woke up covered in snow, but I was still warm

@@patriciaflickner5392 well you have a warmer constitution than I do then! I would have been cold lol❤️🤗🐝
