Cowboy Camping Feb 2022 

I posted the link to Nessmuk’s free pdf book in the video description area.

Your editing gets better with each video! The quality of these just keep getting better and better. Always a good day when you upload!

Good for you for doing what Nessmuk encouraged...get out and do it; be an "Outer"! Since the 1960's 😲 he's been one of my guides, too. Even here on the ranch. My wife's suggestion was to not attempt too many new things all at once. Pick one thing, food cooking/brewing, shelter, bedding, etc., and try to improve that. Move on from there. Cowboy bedroll is called a "soogan" and is quite similar to what you've got started. Black tea is not cowboy coffee so don't brew it the same. Put the loose tea in a cheesecloth "sachet" and steep it in the individual cup. Old cowboy saying: he who leaves his food out won't eat bread in the morning! 😊 Good luck and keep up the effort and good work. As always, like your clothes.

Excellent! Great work. Can't wait for spring and this snow to disappear.

Being organized and having things needed for when going to spend the night somewhere is key. Nice goat 🤙

That olive oil keeps leaking, that bag will be waterproof in no time, lol. Great video, thank you for taking the time to make it.

About tea- my favorite way is to use a metal container with holes and a little chain attached. It's basicaly a reusable teabag. As far as I know, it should be historicaly accurate for 19th century, but better check is it's true.

I really appreciate that you use all natural stuff and find out how to do things the old ways. So may outdoor people are practically addicted to nylon, polyester, plastic, blow up mats, etc. But the way you do things is different. I hope one day I could figure it out, I struggle because I don’t have land and so cant have a horse. Ive been unemployed for a while and struggling. But one day I will have the resources to try it out the way you do.

Good stuff. Nice to see your "little helpers". Thanks for the link.

I can not say whether George Washington Sears (Nessmuk) would have been proud of you, but I can say that he would be happy for you due to the journey you are currently undertaking - and where you are on that journey. Sears is one of my personal favourite writers - and his philosophy regarding what Nature is and what man is (and could/should be) in that regard, has always served as a great inspiration for me. Maria enjoyed your video as well - and says that your bread maybe did not rise bacause your water was too hot. Personally I think it could also have to do with the acidity of the tea water.

Great video man I’m glad I checked out your channel. Loved the quote.

Looks peaceful. Nice video Richard.

Mighty newsy lowdown of what a feller mite pack for a three day roughing out. Purty shure the bread would be my hardest thang to make rite as well. Many thanks for yur vids.

I use lamp wick to make char cloth, it's been around since around 2300BC so it would've likely been available at that time , and now days it's really cheap, in bulk on Amazon 12 foot of it is like $7,, it works excelent. and 12 foot will make about 200 fires, Love the series too by the way,,

You are so under-rated mate! Your videos are excellent. Thanks for uploading.

If I missed it forgive me. I add a bit of acid to my liquid to get the baking soda to rise bread. A shot of vinegar, or making with keifer or clabber. A sourdough liquid with flour and baking soda sifted in will react and rise as well. Thank you very much for the link to the book.

Always well done...

Another fine video Richard, that saying you read at the beginning of the video. I really liked, pretty much covered my reasons for going camping. Other then when I camp a mile or two in the woods to save me some walking before daylight when I’m hunting a few miles from any road. Wishing you and your crew the best from me and mine. 👍🎥🥇🥇🥇🦾

George Washington Sears ( "Nessmuk" ) is an old favorite of mine. Horace Kephart is another great "Outer" Author; I recommend his "Camping and Woodcraft", Univ. of Tennessee Press, 1988. It's a great little hardcover edition! I got a kick out of you taking the "kids" camping! I would worry about them getting into the chow.

An 1880's cowboy with a smartphone... lol jk, but still i love it , i love it, love it! You deserve more! PS: did i forget to tell you i love your beard and outfit? LOVE IT AND EVERYTHING YOU DID.

Nice man. I like the setup.

I read that book, it was really good!

Again awesome information & maybe a small indent then lay down the sage might help don't know,the goat is a funny addition seems to have a WTH kind of attitude 😄

Thanks' another good one. Learning a lot from you

..cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…

Man, being allergic to wool is super unfortunate!

Keep going, enjoy every episode. Where did you get the boots?

Good moning ✋ Romania 🇷🇴🤠

Well I didn’t realize you didn’t like that phase, I just say it for fun, I enjoy my time out in the mountains and ya it’s to get away from Society

Where's your horse lol
