Always a good time watching

I am 66 and nearing retirement. I have been watching a lot of the outdoor videos. Yours is the best. I have no previous camping/outdoor experience but want to start. Thanks for doing these. It’s like I am stating a whole new life!

There is just something very refreshing about a solo overnighter in the woods. Thanks for sharing it.

Kenny, carry four or five wooden clothesline pins and pin the bug net along the edge of the tarp. I know that they can be fashioned in the field, but for the weight and speed of attaching to the shelter, I think is worth it. I have used them when I needed to throw up a tarp in the rain to attach a lean to to a ridge line in a hurry.

lovely place and a nicely laid out tarp setup. not ugly at all.

Your tent is not ugly at all, in fact, it's awesome!

I just got my Free Solider tarp because of your star configuration video. Thanks for sharing these!!! 👍🏾

Nice video! I love looking earth, discover and decompress...

I like this tarp formation. I have never seen it before. Thank you for posting it.

I always carry small binder clips to hold up my bug net on my tarp shelter. Light weight and works great for keeping the the mosquitoes out! ATB Sam Adler

Looked like a lot of fun

I like that little lantern. Cool tarp setup.

Pretty good design. Quick and easy

if you're gonna leave the candle burning, you could use a citronella smelling one, or similar, which the bugs don't like.

Enjoyed watching - seeing your setup. Mighty peaceful surroundings, well illustrated. Thanks for sharing.

Nice setup! Thanks for sharing!

It is a really beneficio forestal.thanks again.best regards,Paco

great loadout. thanks for showing the kool-aid drinkers that you don't always need type 3 nylon cord or tarred bankline to erect shelters. that brass lantern is kick ass!

Cool camping gear got everything so beautifully sing your blog to leave a very enjoyable s Greetings from Turkey

awsome set up. love the bug net idea.

The Free Soldier tarp is one of my favorite pieces of gear. Only issues for me is sharing the space with spiders. At least here in West Virginia mosquitos aren't much of a problem. Also, that little lantern is awesome.

Great video. Nice configuration. Thanx from Ontario Canada

Nice little buggy outing. Steak looked real good and made me hungry at 2355 hours at night. Thanks for sharing. ATB Von

Great video

My Celtic Cousin down south. I'm up in Canada. Have a great summer my friend! ATB

This was a fun video, thank you!

Nice lean-to set up! I like that variation really well. Looked like a nice night in camp too!

Cool video. Thanks for sharing and on this Memorial Day weekend, thanks for your military service.

Good video, Good relaxed campout. Very nice camp site, except for the spider.

I think I like this setup more than any other. For what ever reason you get more of a sense of security, It's false but just the same. As always good job Kenny. wait on your next apocalypse video.

Cool, I like your style.

Great Video, I enjoyed it!

Great info, thanks for sharing

Love your videos ❤️ awesome experience and adventure

Awesome video

thats a nice little shelter. nice work

Brilliant Kenny. Seems easy enough! Need to get me some trekking poles

Great camp Brother! I like that pitch. Ya' like the tarp? I do! Thanks for takin' us out! ZZ.

Nice video ,nice camp love the whelen set up ! enjoyed my friend ! atb john

Very nice👏👏👏👍

Good video. I like the shelter configuration. Not to keen on the way you put the bug netting on. I don’t see how that would keep many bugs out. Anyhow, good you could get out and enjoy the outdoors.

Amazing job, man, just awesomeness!

Tip use pine sap on the jute string. Last longer and helps with the fire in the rain

i make me and the kids sassafrace tea all the time and it helps with stomach problems but i like it ice cold with just a lil bit of sugar

Keep hearing nothing but good things about this tarp.

no worries. One more thing to look forward to.

Great video, thanks for sharing. I love the intro with the music. I have an old backpacking candle like that too, it is nice to get some of the "older" gear out. I am going to look for it and maybe bring up to Spirit Forest it does set a really nice mood. That spider was huge..WOW!

THANK YOU. .

Very nice video and great shelter. ;-)

It was a good video

Kenny for the bug net i'd use those black binder clips to attach the bug net to the tarp. Check it out. I bet you could come up with a million other uses for the binder clips!

nicely done...atb...woods

High, i would use the poles in a slanting position. Kindly Fiete

mais um bom vídeo seu em amigo like like ok

Does that coghlans bug net actually work? There's so much space and pockets on top? I can't see that protecting you from mosquitoes at all?

Very good vedio. The rope is so easy to get fire, what materials is it? Thank you.

handy toggle tip.

What is the replacement blade on the Gerber saw.

Great video. What bug tent did you use and where can I find one?

mabe carry some cloth pins in your bag for the bug net it may help

Water with not leak in to it rige lines coated and pine sap

Whats up Brother? I have to admit, I am ALWAYS impressed by someone solo camping. What I don't understand because of my noviceness, is the bug net. How was it supposed to keep the bugs out with two large gaps at the top? I'm puzzled. Help a guy out :) Anyways, love the videos as always and looking forward to the next one my friend! Take it easy and "keep em ugly". LOL

What an awesome little shelter!! I absolutely love it!! I love that it had sides on it. I think that's so important. Gives me piece of mind. Lol. Also, love that little lantern. Such a cool little piece! All around, just a really cool vid. Thanks!! P.S. Heard some yelling and weird sounds in the background while you were hanging the bug net. What the heck was that?! I saw that it got your attention also, for a second or two. Hahaha!! What's the weirdest/creepyest experience you've ever had out there by yourself? Just curious. Hope me asking that doesnt upset you!! That was one big spider!! Dammm!! 😲 Peace 😊

whats the point of the bug net in that configuration? i mean you have 2 big spaces through which the bugs can get in? am i missing something?

What brand is that small candle lantern? Outstanding 👌

New subscriber here. Nice setup. I like the lean-to. I actually never carried a tent until I got married and had kids... What part of the country are you in? Looks a lot like Western North Carolina. I spent hundreds of nights in the Pisgah Forest and Shining Rock Wilderness. The sounds of those woodpeckers in this video brought back many fond memories of those journeys.

Thank you for this video. After a stressful day I watched it and got relaxed again. I learned something too; loved your toggle technique. You have a pretty good microphone setup, caught every bird and critter sound; almost like being out there myself. What brand of tarp is that? Was that one canteen of water all you needed? Finally, have any idea of the total weight of all your carry in equipment? Thanks again.

May I ask, What is the make of your Tarp? It seems very effective and well served to support multiple needs.

Hey man, I have had such bad luck with gear failing and ripping, stitches popping , sleeping bags being cold as hell even if rated lower with me in thermals. I want to collect some really good quality gear and I see you use this a lot, will this tarp see me right you think? I like the look of it better than DD also DD has zero UV protection where as the free soldier tarp does disperse some ultra violet. I'm just getting really bored of all my gear failing when I can't afford to spends hundreds of £. ATB.

How big is your tarp??

So just for reference, what size is the tarp you used? Looks like a 12x12 maybe.

Hey there my friend! First time subscriber and first time hiker/camper liked your videos! Keep up the great work!👍 I have one question for you...what are the dimensions of your tarp you used to do that type of setup? 10x10? 12x12? 10x12? I would like to know! Thanks! This is Big Boy Frank from Texas! Peace ✌🏼

could you tell where to buy your 12" blade folding saw ?

What size tarp did you use. I like the looks of it.

What part of sassafras is carcinogenic? Does your preparation method neutralize the threat?

hello could You give me a link to store with this amazing saw?

Ya know, I'm 0ld in fact about the same age as Dirt, close away. I've never seen one of those little Candle Holders you had here. Man, I'd like find one of those for my camping out. Any Ideas where at?

Great video and trip. Anytime outdoors is a great time !! What tarp and size is that?

What kind of tarp is that ?

Where'd you get your tarp

Don't blame the bug net it you didn't put it up properly....

Where do you live?

Love the video and your setup for the tarp. One question, the bird song was wonderful, what forest type were you in? Cheers.

I can hear Bigfoot yelling in the background. ??

I’m worried about you being at the bottom of that hill there.

2:39 - What's that calling?

なんでこんな坂に？😣雨が降ってきたら全部自分の方に流れてくる😭
