I made this 5 day solo backpacking trip, including hiking, float fishing and tent camping overnight with campfire cooking in the first half of June. This nice hidden camping spot wasn’t new for me - a beautiful glade with enough space for a tent and a campfire and a small river nearby with clean water full of good fish - but I had never been here before at the beginning of summer.
On the first day of my solo trip I did an 11 km hike through the pine forest with a small bog at the end of the trail, where I soaked my sneakers. But I always take with me a second pair of light-weighted shoes, so there was no reason to upset.
As I said, I was prepared for the wet, but I wasn’t expected the huge amount of bloodsucking insects. This blood brotherhood was rather quiet at day, but after 8 p. m., when the sun began to hide, it was really their time. It was impossible to stay even a step aside the campfire for some seconds. And a horde of mosquito wasn’t the worst thing. Small angry flies - oh, they definitely came from hell. It was very hard to cook in the evening, so excuse me for not the best quality of the food filming.
But in the end I spent 3 full days in a quit pace away from big settlements and roads, caught enough good fish (but wasn’t lucky with the biggest one) and shot this film for all of you. Have a nice watch!
