Rock Shelter Camping

Рет қаралды 1,810

3 ай бұрын

Rock Shelter Camping offers the serenity of nature up close and personal. It is a totally different experience than tent, hammock or car camping. Half the fun is searching for a Rock Shelter that: provides protection from bad weather, has a good view, offers a flat floor, preferably sandy, and finally has no hiding places for snakes, spiders or other biting vermin.
The video is divided into the following chapters:
1) Follow less traveled paths
2) Explore possible shelters
3) Climb hills for perspective
5) Seek peace in the night
Video was filmed March 19-20, 2024 at the Rock Climbing Area in Texas Canyon, Angeles National Forest, California. An Adventure Pass is required to be displayed in vehicles when using the Forest for recreation.
Videography by Ken Kramm March 19-20, 2024; iPhone 12 Pro Max; iPhone 15 Pro Max; GoPro HERO 8black; Canon Vixia HFG30. Final Cut Pro X.

I am so glad to see/hear you out and about! While in my early seventies, I have been incredibly blessed via camping, hiking, canoeing, et al. Even when I am not out and about, you post a video and it seems I am “wandering along the mountain paths”! Thank you …

Whoever put that little bench there is a blessing from God. Great idea, and a lovely gift to so many people.

Dr. Ken … First: OUTSTANDING video!!! Second: you never cease to amaze me with your strength, knowledge, and resilience!!! I lived in Leon County, Texas for over 25 years; we were on the eastern fringe of the Texas hill country. I have family that lives in Humble/Atascocita, Texas. Going to and from the ranch, I passed within a mile of your home off mile marker/exit 79 on I-45. I had hoped that when the ranch sold that I might have the time, opportunity, and honor of meeting you and your wonderful wife. That opportunity was lost when you made your move to California. That notwithstanding, you remain a hero and role model!!! Ken, thanks for your inspiration and your channel!!! Until your next video and beyond, happy trails, best wishes, take care, be safe, God’s peace, and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Atascocita, Texas. ✝️🎣👨‍🌾🦌🙏

Ken, I always enjoy your adventures. One of my favorites is the time you slept out under the stars on a beach that was infested with snakes. You are a brave man. There is no way I would sleep in those rock shelters. No telling what kind of critters come out of those holes at night.

So happy to see you back out where you belong! Keep up the great work! I wonder how many people over the centuries have been in that same old rock shelter. Depending on the resources around it, I can picture a nice indigenous family making it a comfortable home at some point.

You once made a video about "What do you do when it rains?" Your answer was "Embrace the suck." I've given that advice to a number of people since I watched your video, but not about camping, just the various crap you have to deal with in life. Happy trails.

Very nice. Great to see you out rambling and roaming. I'm very happy to see you get to stay out on an overnighter again. Be very careful around those rocks. We need you in one piece for more videos 😂 Can you ride your bicycle out and about anymore ? I miss your cooking while outdoors and the sunrise coffee and breakfast ritual. Maybe you can eventually get back to doing those things again with time. Thanks for another great video Looking forward to many more ❤ Everybody have a safe and happy Easter. God Bless ❤

Thanks for watching. My doctors to me to stop bike riding. My balance is not as good as it should be…. And any accident or fall is dangerous. For life, I and taking blood thinners…. When hiking and crawling on rocks I am close to the ground to minimize risk

When hike I never take a step until at the trekking pole or walking stick is firmly planted on the ground and I hike where branches, roots and rocks are available to grab as necessary 😊

Another beautiful keeper Kenneth. 2 or 3 more runt sized live oaks and that would be the hill country. Hey Kenneth, I'm just a handful of years behind you. Do you remember how many more birds and toads and snakes, etc. there were around when we were growing up and young ? When I try to tell people from the last 2 (or 3) generations about it they just give me that crazy old person look. Any advice on this ?

Thank you. As a kid. I found critters everywhere…. I still do today…. However.. more people and more human invented materials… plastics to birth control chemical and forever chemicals and sound pollution etc… make it a very different world..
