Ha. You did it again...lol. I now live in MN. Cold here. I really want to do a snow camp. Nothing bad just cold etc. Never had the opportunity. Been thinking about it a lot. Needed this/your input and here you are. Perfect timing...lol. Great ideas and advise. Many thanks as always. Big thumbs and a great vid.
I think people who camp have more fulfilling lives and are happier and have a better sense of well-being. I think camping's like a vacation from one life into another, a more peaceful, satisfying one. I wish I was a camper. I'd love to escape the life I live and get away from everything and everyone and just enjoy nature far away. And if I never came back that'd be fine with me.
You and I must have gone to the same bush craft school, sir! It may be that Buckeyes think alike as I graduated from HTHS outside of Columbus. I joined the military and became an advanced paramedic (IDMT). My winter gear load out in a Gen 2 MARPAT ILBE is very similar to yours and I have a WWII musette as a day hike bag. I love that wool anorak and the Silkie Big Boy (one of my saws is a Gomboy). Thank you, sir, for sharing!
Also posted my winter loadout. I don't know about you brother but can't wait for the snow. Dang ticks gave me Lyme this year. The snow is easier to deal with than the bugs. LOL!
My question is. As u start to gather a lot of gear do u find it harder To chose what u want/need ? I'm sure my gear doesn't add up to half of what u have. For me I load my pack one day the next day I'm changing it up again. Any struggles with this ??
How do you like the Klymit Static V Recon insulated pad? I'm a side sleeper and so far, that's the best pad i can find for the money, weight, size, comfort, and warranty.
Great vid, thanks. Please list the websites that you purchased your gear from as I had to do a Google search for the Asbell Anorak Wool pullover and I did purchase it today. I reside in northeastern Vermont (The NEK). I'm close to your age and I'm just getting back into bush crafting, hiking etc.. I really enjoy your channel and I've subscribed. Thanks again mate.
Great gear video buddy. I’m gonna get my ilbe pack out and start using it on my bushcraft trips now. I normally use my filbe assault pack but the other day I had noticed that one of my straps has started to fail and I gotta repair it 😢Do you ever use your helikon haversack? I haven’t seen it featured in any more videos.
In regards to the Asbell Anorak, what size is it that you wear? I noticed that you a pretty big guy as am I and I am just asking because I am interested in buying one and wonder how they fit. Also which model of Anorak is it. Thanks, love the channel.
