25+ years of camping & backpacking experience that I want to pass along for our kids and the next generation to enjoy as much as I have!
My name is Adam, and welcome to Dad Camps!
As a dad of 3 amazing kids, I've always been passionate about exploring the great outdoors with them. There's something special about being out in nature and bonding with them while we explore all the wilderness has to offer. Whether it's camping, backpacking, or spending a day out in nature, each adventure has created unique and priceless memories. We also mix in some hunting, fishing, and geocaching to keep things interesting. Hopefully this will inspire dads get out there and explore, whether it's with kids or just on your own. I'm also excited to share with you, my gear reviews. Whether it's an ultralight tent or a comfortable backpack, the right gear can make or break an adventure.
Please subscribe and join me on this exciting journey!
Going on my first (one night) backpacking trip in September. I ordered a little pack of toothpaste tabs, then the other day realized I have two packs of Wisps! Two of those weigh nothing and I don't have to pack a toothbrush.
Hi Adam I had entered your 1000 subscriber giveaway and read where you would contact a winner by youtube message i dont know what that is so i was wodering if you have picked a winner yet. Well keep having great adventures and posting great videos and congratulations on your 1000
Hello. Is this giveaway still going? Says it ended on July 7th but i dont see a announcement of a winner yet, but i see people still commenting. So i didnt know if you extended it or if a winner has been announced. If the entries have been extended id love to enter and these would be used for probably predator hunting more than anything. Congrats on 1k subscribers
I recently just picked up the Ledlenser ML6 & ML4 Warm lanterns and they are very impressive! My new favorite lights and I can’t wait to get them out on my next adventure.
Hey Adam! I was just browsing through camping gear reviews and stumbled across one of your videos. I was like, wait a minute… I know that guy! Hahaha I had no idea you had this channel. Congrats on passing 1k subs🎉. Hope you are having a great summer! That night-vision setup looks like it would be fun to take into the wilderness to watch for wildlife at night. That’s what I would use them for. Might even get lucky and spot Bigfoot. 😅👍
I don't think there's any downside except over-cut the head fly part. -50gram and condensation, I prefer +50gram without condensation, but Nemo maker misjudged.
Awesome vest! Great video Dad Camps! Have you announced the 1k giveaway winner yet? Just wondering. Haven't seen anything. Congratulations again on 1k! Hope you grow more and more!
This was a helpful video, thank you. The EXPLORE act, passed by the house of reps, would rationalize the laws around filming for small content creators for social media, if you think the rules about youtube filming at the park are a little silly/onerous, its worth calling your senator and asking them to back the bill
Congrats on 1k! You’re almost at 1.5k now 🎉 I think these would be really neat to take on short backpacking trips and peer out into the woods to see if can’t find any little critters around!!
Congratulations to you and i would use them alot while probably out on the boat. I woudl used them for other times im in the woods or something but i would love to just use them while on the boat if i got lucky and won. Thanks for the opportunity
Hi Adam, You are truly adventurous. I salute yours dedication, hard work and passion also. I appreciate it. I have been watching your videos for a long time. But despite all your efforts, your videos do not have enough views. So I strongly suggest you to do SEO optimization of your videos that's boost your video views and you will get good results.

Interesting video. Lots of good ideas for people to think about and possibly use to improve their kit. I can’t find your earbuds video that you referenced. Can you provide a link?
Thank you! Unfortunately I took it down b/c those were discontinued, but now I use these and I love them! amzn.to/3Wr9zLQ - Smoking deal right now too!
Congratulations! I am thinking if I win of later on giving these to some kids in my family. But not sure yet. I know either way whatever are done with these they would be used for night watching all the different critters that roam around at night.
Congratulations on the 1k subs. Def a huge milestone for smaller channels on yt. I hope that you exceed beyond 1k. Thank you for the giveaway and nice video. These would be used for the many outdoor adventures and activities I do.
Congrats on 1,000 subscribers. I also want to say real quick I thank you for giving us all a chance to enter in. These are really neat. I would honestly gift these to my great nieces. I know they would enjoy playing with these. They spend alot of time outdoors also so they would come in handy while also doing the outdoors hobbies they do with their parents. Great video. Goodluck everyone
What did you end up using as a tent with your dad friends? Love the look of the tent, but me and my 2 boys are over 6'+. Love to hear what you settled on. Tks!
@@DadCamps We use the Mountainsmith Bear Creek 4 tent when we backpack and only use 1 tent. It's fantastically roomy and tall. It's fairly light and an easy pitch too. But it takes up alot of real estate and I was looking for something more compact. Alas I don't think anything smaller exists for 3 dudes 6'2" and up. Thank you so much for your honest and thorough review of the Maxfield tent!
Congratulations on the 1k subscribers! I wish much luck to you on more success! If I won these night vision goggles they would be used for having some fun with some fun night time games and adventures! I also wouldn't mind just sitting outside watching the wildlife around me to just seen them in a different perspective. Thank you for the giveaway.
