This summer, I’ve partnered with Moosehead Breweries to motivate Canadians to complete something they’re proud of and earn their very own beer with their name on it.
I recently did a call out on Instagram asking you all what you’d like to learn in the world of bushcraft -
and I got a lot of requests for tips on going on your first solo camping trip.
So here it is! I hope seeing this reawakens the courage inside and sparks the drive within to take the leap and set for the wild - because Moosehead is a beer for doers and a solo camping trip
will definitely earn you a special cold one.
Submit your completed project by either posting on Instagram and tagging @moosehead, or simply visit
beerwithyourname.com/.
Must be legal drinking age. Please enjoy responsibly.

I have to acknowledge and appreciate that you never take yourself too seriously. Purists and gatekeepers can be a hinderance to people learning to love the outdoors. Experiencing and appreciating nature in any capacity is important for the individual and for society. Thank you for being a positive role model!

This is very fitting. If every Person I know would be more in touch with nature, I think a lot of "modern everyday problems" wouldn't bear such weight on their thoughts.

There's no right way to do any of this stuff. But not enjoying yourself is the definitive wrong way. I'd been going on solo trips for years before I learned I was doing it all wrong - all my stuff ("gear") was wrong, I wasn't starting fires the right way, my knots weren't "real", and don't even get me started on how my habit of singing with earbuds in while hiking is really a harbinger of deep-rooted psychological issues and a fundamental lack of respect for Nature itself... Taking one's self seriously sounds like the opposite of having fun, and the term gatekeepers always makes me think of fairytale trolls who live under bridges demanding to be paid in gold coins or your favorite eyeball or something equally ridiculous 😜 Your well-stated comment is accurate, important, and I hope everyone reads it!

Hey Joe. You inspired me to go on my first solo camping trip when I was 16. That was 5 years ago now. I was about 30 minutes from my car, I set up a tarp shelter and had a campfire. It rained, I had spiders crawl over me and I spilt my breakfast but it was an experience I would never forget. Since then I've been on countless solo trips and I even film them now. Going solo is my favourite way to camp now. I just want to say that this video is awesome, you've been a big inspiration to me and I hope this video helps others get out and enjoy what nature has to offer! Cheers man.

Joe, I don't know if you know how your videos improve lives. Personally, I am 67, handicapped, use a walker and soon will be moving to a wheelchair. Cancer and heart conditions. I will never be able to go camping again. I rarely leave the house other than to go to my doctors. Your videos, and some of the others I subscribe to, take me where I can no longer go. While it obviously can never replace the actual camping, canoeing, hiking experience, they provide my escape from the drudgery of being in bed or my reclining lift chair. Thanks.

Before I ventured off into the woods I solo camped in my own backyard. Tried out all of the gear and used the fire pit for all of the cooking. Brought in long branches to cut up. Etc...

My little grandson (that loves your children's book and can read it all by himself now ❤️) has been having fun camping with his 2 brothers and mum... She even set up a small tent out the back and they sleep there. They experienced their 1st overnight in a massive rain/thunderstorm last week and loved it. Fills my heart with joy as I grew up camping every other weekend spring to autumn back home with an aunt for about 7 years as a child. It doesn't have to be an expensive thing and you don't have to travel a million miles and children love the adventures!

My first mistake was made on my first solo trip. I got to camp late in the day. By the time I was set up it was dusk. I had no time to climatize to my surroundings leaving me nervous all night in the dark. Thanks Joe for your videos. You inspired me to buy a canoe and camp. I’ve learned so much from watching you! You’re a great teacher. Keep them coming!
@IncredibleChief
@IncredibleChief Год назад
Same thing happened to me back in 2020. I was in the Dixie National Forest in western Utah. It was between dusk and complete darkness when i got there and had to setup and gather wood in the dark. Warnings about bears and mountain lions always gets the mind going and too far at that. Lol. I find that a super bright light with lots of food and a bright light with lots of throw helps me at a wider distance up close (flood) and the thrower helps me to see at more of a distance, though the beam is more focused so or won't light up a huge area unless you're wielding a massive light which isn't suggested unless you're car camping. If you'd like suggestions, just let me know. Also medical supplies and a form of protection ease my mind as well. Always be prepared. Good luck with your future trips. Take Care and Be Aware.

@@IncredibleChief I’m 4yrs into solo canoeing and and camp. Even though I have more experience now and I’m better prepared I still feel nervous. It’s not so much the creatures or the dark. I’m scared of the random crazy human wandering into my camp. The risk is low I know that. For me it’s about showing courage and self reliance. Plus I sleep with my bush knife and bear spray so I’m well protected. First aid kit is a must have. I cut my hand once and was so glad I have the kit so I didn’t have to turn back.

Never will forget my first solo camping trip, none of my buddies wanted to give backpacking a shot so I said forget it and went by myself. Turned out to be a pretty good learning experience on how to be better prepared for everything being soaking wet after a night of rain, and not to mention the creepy feeling of being surrounded by the dark forest but the freedom you get to experience so worth it. This video definitely will help push me to get out there for another. Cheers Joe great video as always!

Always be prepared my dude. A poncho or even a quickly deployable tarp setup can help keep you dry and a super bright light with lots of flood (i use a headlamp) and a bright light with lots of throw will helps to ease my mind. A form of protection like bear spray or a firearm if possible, also helps ease my mind. Hope this helps. Enjoy your future journeys in the outdoors. Take Care and Be Aware.

Popcorn snaffu is the perfect example of why I love watching your channel. Shit happens and sometimes you just gotta roll with it. Also is an example to newcomers to this type of camping. You are gonna make mistakes, shit is gonna happen. Learn from each experience and every time you go back out to the woods is going to become easier and more fun, but also each time you go out something different can and will happen to keep you on your toes. When you start out, definitely have a "safety net" of some type. A small accident at home can quickly become life threatening in the woods. Keep your phone charged, keep it on you. If you manage to get hurt, you can at least call for help. Love watching this stuff, keep em coming good sir!

Did my first solo camp in 2020, lucky enough to live near a bunch of wetlands and parks in the northeast. Decided to give it a whirl after watching Joe and Steve Wallis, I know two very different ways to do it. But I figured I was literally in walking distance of home. Bought a basic kit, and went through set up and break down a few times before going out. And even though it was so close to home come sunset, sh*t got real. Lol. It was the most terrifyingly fun 2 days. I have gone out a few times since. But that first time still sticks out. Now I am trying my hand at bushcraft as life and time allows. Thank you Joe (and Steve) for making it seem doable.

Thanks Joe for your videos, always inspiring! I went solo camping at Lake Taylor close to home a few weeks ago after 30 years without sleeping in a tent. It was so great to hear the loons calling at night and have the ton of birds wake me up at sunrise. I really needed that alone time in nature. This past weekend I went camping again with a friend this time at Bon Echo Ontario Provincial Park, again another amazing experience. On July 16 I will be 55 years old and that morning I will do a 1.5k open water swimming in Ottawa (BOTB Bring on the bay easter seals fundraising event).. I am pretty nervous about this, I know I can do it when I swim alone at my own pace but this is a timed event with lots of people around. I'm way out of my comfort zone!! I want to challenge myself this summer, I'm retiring at the end of august after 31+ year of work. I have a lot to learn still and your videos are sooooo helpful, many thanks!!!

My norm for tent setup is to remove the obvious stuff from your spot, then throw down my ground cloth and lay on it and roll around looking for sleep depriving stones and so on that were hidden, and then put up the tent. I’ve never brushed the leaves back because I don’t like getting mud on the ground cloth on account of it transferring to everything else when it’s time to pack up! But Joe’s way works for him, and that’s great! ONWARD!

Glad you touched on hardwood cooking, I'd like more information on tree identification. A great thing my father taught me when hiking is to stop randomly or at significant land marks,stop,,turn around and see what it looks like. It's very comforting on the return trip to see things from the same angle.

Enjoying your support of more affordable gear for a reasonable use. Too many "no true scottsman" around gatekeeping, people absolutely can get out and enjoy backpacking without breaking the bank and with good guidance it makes it a lot more accessible.

You are the reason why I started camping a few years ago!! The way you talk makes me feel welcomed in the outdoor community, so I gave it a go and it changed my life. My dog and I can comfortably camp because of you!! I’m so grateful for the knowledge you share. People like you uplift and encourage others. I can’t thank you enough for that. Once in a while I will bump into people outside that talk down to me. One time I went into a station to get a permit for hiking, and the person working asked me if I was sure I wanted it because she didn’t think I could make it to the top of the peak. Those moments hurt, but I always remember your positive outlook to keep me going. I don’t have to impress anyone. I just need to be myself and enjoy my time outside.

I personally enjoy Solo camping way more than with my friends, for me it's time to myself and reseting. With friends it's more of a social event, a pub in the woods and bushcrafting. Either way just getting out there and experiencing the outdoors works wonders whether you stay the night or not, I've bailed 3 or 4 times in the last 12-18 months

@@jimijaimz i use to go float in the pond there all the time with my dog. One day 3 teenage boys showed up an they almost drowned my dog. I'm a 5ft 3in. Older woman but when that happened I looked pretty good an i was scared. They left me alone. Thank goodness. Those boys are grown an hopefully gone now. Since i don't have a dog now, I'm taking a shot gun for sure. Thanks for your support.

Hi Joe, an excellent tutorial on primative camping. I really enjoy your channel as it brings back memories of my youth doing what you do now. I am born and raised in the Alaska Bush and have been doing the Bushcraft thing for about 60 years, I am 74 now. I have lived in a 14'x16' wall tent for about 6 years. I still live off grid but, more rural than remote. You are an inspiration to many of our youth and adults as well and you have a great attitude. Not much seems to bother you and that is good because, doing what you do, you have to keep your head on straight. The meal looked really good. Thanks for sharing.

Great video much appreciated. I have been camping literally hundreds of times but not alone. Did my first solo trip 3 days ago. It was a great freedom to only do what I wanted to do and not have to make sure everyone was having a good time. Although I am not to proud to admit that you can get the heebeejeebees at night by yourself. I'm sure it will get better with practice.

My first solo camping trip was in the early 80's. I loved it. I went to an area that I was familiar with, and had a great time. It helped to assuage my fears of camping alone.

Great video Joe! I’ve been on countless solo trips and you reinforced my favorite reason for solo camping…. You can do what ever you want/need to do! I’ve changed plans, left early, stayed longer, made mistakes, and had perfect camps! Just me and a dog! Thanks for another great video!…oh yeah, how did you like the Husqvarna Carpenter Ax?? , it’s pretty much become my favorite!

Thanks for an amazingly informative video. For someone like me hoping and dreaming to do something like this feels like a fantasy. You help your viewers feel that something like this is less of a fantasy and make it more likely to be reality. Thanks for creating and sharing this video. Much appreciated Joe. Man you would be such an amazing guide/teacher if you taught lessons and offered people the opportunity to go on teaching trips like this. That too would make an awesome video. Cheers Joe!!!!

All these skills and things aren't just for solo camping. I don't really bushcraft except for close to my house but I've learned so much from Joe and it shows when I bring my friends and family in a normal camping setting. It gives you and the others confidence to go out a little further and little longer knowing the person who is "leading or guiding" the campground trip could in a pinch make a fire or just have some extra knowledge. And the willing to back out and go home is maybe the best advice. Your not impressing anyone when they want to leave and you want to tough it out.

Hey Joe, that soloplex guyline from the vestibule should have a loop knotted in it. That loop is for the tent stake. The free end should have a hook on it for the vestibule doors. Hooking the doors pulls them away from the mesh door to form the vestibule.
