Solo Camping in a TORRENTIAL RAIN Storm! - (my Wildest camp so far) 

I must commend you on your commitment to filming in such conditions. Foul weather camping is hard enough but having to film all the craziness is downright heroic under such conditions. Bravo! Thank you for yet another great video. They scratch that itch to get back in the woods until the season changes in the northeast US.

You never have to apologize for not bringing Indie with you. We all love seeing her but your videos are extremely enjoyable whether Indie can join with you or not. Your video content and amazing personality is what makes this channel stand out. Just please keep doing what you are doing and everything will be absolutely awesome. I hope that you and your family will enjoy your adventures in the new part of your country that you are planning to visit for awhile. Enjoy the outdoors and stay safe out there (and don't forget to bring the tent pegs LOL.) See you on the next one Cathy.

I am always impressed with people who dont let the elements stop their adventures. You are a warrior! Sincerely, your newest fan!😊

Don't be hard on yourself it's not a fail your amazing I love watching you. I too love the sound of the rain

I can’t get over the beauty of New Zealand. I had always wanted to visit, but too late. So, I can enjoy it through your trips. Thank you again.

gorgeous spot, the rain ,the trees, the view-spectacular!

you are amazing the way you fought the wind with that tent and did all that setting up in the rain. The way you did it with no tent pegs is amazing. I really love your attitude to life and hope your channel grows huge. You deserve success.

Thank you for your efforts in filming your adventures and bringing us along. Such stunning beauty in NZ, rain, snow, or shine!

I’m at home in isolation fighting off a Covid relapse. Watching you setup camp in the horrible weather helps puts me in a different state of mind and helps me feel just slightly better.

I love the “fails” and realism. That’s how all my adventures happen in real life. Always forget something, knock something over, trip on something…

I’m amazed at some of the conditions you camp in! That was some rain and wind! I want to wish you very Happy New Year!! I have so enjoyed your videos this past year and I am so looking forward to seeing where you take us this next year. Give Indi a hug for me!

I don’t know why you put so much effort into camping, but it is extremely therapeutic for people like me, battling life. Thank you, thank you so much!❤ Also, happy new year.

It's so nice to feel well enough to watch your video for a change. I've missed seeing you for quite a few weeks. What an exceptionally hard fall it has been health-wise. lol Always something to remind us of how good the good days really are.

G'day, Merry Xmas & Happy New Year to you & yours. You have earned every Like you get this trip with that set up.

Looking forward to the next one!

Massive respect for persevering and making the most of that, many would have bailed. I bloody enjoyed watching that, it's the first time I've seen you so I've subscribed 😊

You are so brave camping alone. ❤ i wanna start hiking for nature walks 😊 but noone else around me does, so i just watch and learn at the moment.

For the gear ❤ and a happy new year for you and your family! May your Channel increase. You are a amazing woman. Lots of love from Germany 🇩🇪

Enjoyed the excitement with the storm and how you handled it. The scenery was magnificent.

Go kiwi, thanks for taking me back home for some therapeutic camping weather.

Happy New Year Cathy. Wishing you good health and many more safe and happy Adventures OT.

It’s so beautiful

Great camping show. Any kind of adverse weather conditions is always fun to Camp Inn, and watch great job you do in New Zealand is such a beautiful place.

So beautiful. Great video

Enjoyed your camp. So much rain to contend with and with only one broken tent peg! 👍

Wow the weather is crazy. Great watch. Somehow I love when nature is powerful like this.😊😊😊

The rain camping Queen does it again, nice content.

Happy holidays to you and your family too! I hope 2024 grows your channel by leaps and bounds. Take care!

Wow! What an amazing camp- and you are amazing for handling the situation the way did AND managing to film during it all! Hats off to you 💪🏼👏🏻! Here’s wishing you and yours all the best for 2024🎉❤

Great respect for you and your commitment to film in such weather conditions……and without tent pegs….lol. As always, great adventure…

Happy New Year Cathy to you and your family ...Nice to see your keeping your spirit high in such bad conditions. Looking forward to your next adventures in 2024. (ps.dont forget your pegs.)

First time viewer your friggin amazing,Rock on kiwi😉 more plz👍

NZ is like UK/Ireland with extra toppings 😂 Hopefully I'll visit and get a camp in someday. Thanks for sharing! 🌲

There is just something about being tucked in, listening to the weather, and nature all around…

Great video. The leftover food looked amazing. Here in the UK we call heated up roast dinner leftovers "bubble and squeak".😊

We just got a DD tarp ourselves to replace a well and truly worn blue builders tarp. Looks like we might have the exact same one (and poles) so the fact that you've shown it dries out super fast is fantastic. Looking forward to trying ours in a couple of weeks.

Looks beautiful there and i really like the camp set up on this trip 👍

Nice rain and Vibe

now in my 70s. I can no longer do the long hikes. So I thank you for bringing it to me. And reminding me how wonderful it was. when I did exactly what you do.

Watching from a freezing cold Scotland. Enjoying your video.

Happy New Year, hope you had a great holiday! It always amazes me how you handle challenging situations. Thanks for sharing great video as always.

Chipper. Always Chipper.Admorable attitude in Atrocious downpour. You give me faith in positive thinking Atvb2u OT.Scott Somerset England

Absolutely beautiful and I love watching you and Indie when she comes along. Stay safe my friend

Yeah... Nice one mate..

Güzel video doğa harika yağmur kampını her zaman sevmişimdir harikasınız👏👏👏

I enjoyed you put your tent up. And then you put your trap up witchh most on here couldn't do it are know how . I live in USAand ii am 66 and I camped a lot and l9ved watching you on your trips.

I would have packed up my dollies and gone home! So happy you didn't! Your a wonder, woman!

Thankyou for the wonderful content, honesty and for sharing your experience...youve earned yourself a subscriber mate 😊

Thank you for mentioning that, watching the ads does help, I try to watch them all, unless they are long ones. And I love it when your videos are longer, the longer the better.❤🎉 happy new year from East Tennessee, USA

I do love watching your videos. Nice style camp, everything quiet. You look like a very kind person.

Wow.😊🙋‍♂️🌧🌦☔ very good.

Felicitaciones muy lindo vídeo Saludos desde Argentina ❤

Thanks! Lol "every time I go camping there's always a fail." You are so funny and resourceful and loved the back story.

Happy solo camping....wish you success and good health as well...

Cathy, another great video. Just curious, is your rain suit 100% waterproof or is it water resistant? I found out the hard way what the difference is. A Gor-Tex rain suit is best because it’s 100% water proof & it breaths. Happy New Year to you!

I’ve just found your channel and I love it you have another subscriber

Awesome video , like way weather will not slow you down , we have had weather like this in B.C. , Canada , bless you

Happy new year. Thakjs for another good video

My girl, this is my first time catching your camping videos. You say your feeling vulnerable. You are a tiger, my hats off to you. Love the video. Gold Bless. Peace and Blessings from the USA, state of Connecticut ❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing again. Have a wonderful 2024, all the best to you and your family.

I expected to see Gandalf walk out of the woods. Tough conditions; well done. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful natural

Love your work and how you turn mishaps into success. You find beauty wherever you go. Thank you for sharing your passions with us. Happy New Year. Ellen in Oregon , USA

Thanks

What an awesome spot...

Another great video. I feel your pain too. Here in the woods of UK 🇬🇧 it’s wet windy and muddy when I set up camp and the same when I break down camp. But you just deal with it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful country and adventures with us. Much appreciated. You put in a lot of hard work to filming and making content for all us guys. Happy new year to you 🎉 and best wishes for 2024. Stay safe and take care. Your awesome 👍😉🏕🍺

Happy New Year, i hope to see you a lot in 2024😂 Thank you for all the hard work ❤ NZ is so beautifull ,big kiss for Indi😘

Wow amazing place❤❤❤

I think you are doing very well under such circumstances

Well what a crazy camp no pegs (1only) and then the tent deciding to take off I thought this could be a disaster but you persevered and it turned out to be a great camp and video. Looking forward to 2024 adventures. Steve.

Best rain gear vid I've seen. Looks like leather. That's some weather. Great vid. That's the kind like,

So nice 🎉

In California also deal with huge black bears 🐻, huge AF tarantulas,crazy weather like that but people everywhere! 😅 great job dealing with the elements of rain and wind

Hi Cathy. 👋 Vivian here. Ok,so u forgot the peggs. No biggie. 'Vid was another 'ENJOYABLE One 💯 Huggs & kisses 💋 sent 'Indi way❤♥️✌️😎 P.S. the rain sound was 'Superb ..

Hallo Cathy ich hoffe du hattest schöne Festtage mit deiner Familie und einen ruhigen Jahreswechsel. Ich habe mir gerade dein aktuelles Video angesehen. Bei uns sagt man " Hut ab" um jemanden Bewunderung für seine Arbeit oder sein Tun entgegen zubringen. Bei Sturm und Regen baust du Zelt und Tarp auf und machst es dir gemülich. Ich liege auf der Couch und entspanne mich bei deinem Video während du mit Sturm und Regen kämpfst.

i really love camping maam..i always dreaming that someday i can do camping like you..

Happy New Year to you and your family

You are one brave lady happy new year to you love watching your videos could watch them all day 😊

Sve je odlicno realna prava kisai realno kampivanje u prirodi

What a great clip looks like bonnie Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 -4c at the moment Will be subscribing to your channel keep the clips up 😊

That set up looked like a total nightmare. Well done for the set up. I would have ran for the hills.😱

I love love watching your videos. It was tough but you managed. Watching from Africa Kenya Nairobi city.

Hi thanks for replying, I just checked on Amazon regarding the picnic blanket. If you search using the words small or pocket picnic blankets it’s brings up a bunch of inexpensive items. Which would be suitable for back packing etc. there are larger ones too which would be better for car camping. Just wanted to pass it on.

Thanks!

Iam really enjoying your video

Happy New Year Cathy thanks for sharing your adventures miss Indie though😊

Kiitos!

👍👍👍 .. nice 😊. Rain (and Wind 😖) appear to follow you on your outings 😏. Perhaps, for a fee, you should consider visiting Drought-Stricken Areas in other parts of the Globe .. could be quite lucrative 😁. Super spot .. it reminds me so much of my home town Kleinmond, Western Cape, South Africa .. the rain (and wind 😫) and 'Fynbos' vegetation during the July Winter Rainfall Season. As a 'Southerner' by birth, I can identify with Summer Christmases .. Braais (Barbecues) and Christmas Feasts in the Braai Room and adjoining Veranda surrounded by Winter-themed Christmas Trees, Decorations, Cards, etc, etc 😊. Bare feet in the rain .. I've lived in Switzerland the past ten years and still go barefoot whenever. Old Years evening, I sat on the 3rd floor flat balcony, barefoot, toasting marshmallows over charcoal in a hobo stove, drinking Glühwein (with the little Malti-Poo dozing next to me under the blanket .. fireworks and the accompanying 'bangs' don't fuss her one bit .. never has) while watching the Firework Displays across the Rhine in Germany herald in 2024. Yes, the temp was in the low (°C) single digits and with a tile floor, cold under (bare) foot. Good 'cold weather conditioning' .. improves the circulation I believe. I very seldom suffer from cold feet when outside as, I believe, a result thereof. There .. 'useless information' done! 👏😁. When it's raining cats and dogs, sometimes the pooch appreciates being left behind .. mine hates rain! There is always the next time. Always a pleasure watching your posts. You pulled through admirably despite the weather and equipment shortage. Something to be said for a tent that can be deployed with rain fly at the ready. Thanks for sharing .. and all good and more in 2024 for yourself and Loved Ones. Enjoy the relocation and am looking forward to your next post (with or sans rain 😊). Take care ..

Happy new year.hope this is a good one for you and your family🎉🎉🎉

Thanks, as always, Cathy! Has the NZ summer been unusually wet like it has been here in Australia?

생동감 있는 빗소리 영상 최고입니다👍 좋은 영상 감사합니다😊❤

Maybe you can try to put up the tarp first. Under it you can put up the tent, more or less dry. You can always replace the tarp later.

O Very Nice 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

You so Amazing I love ur video from Indonesia .

It looks just like the mountains in mallorca 😮

Nice!! loved this vid!

Those krazy kamping Kiwis. Here's one more....

Wow it’s beautiful there! The mat you put outside your tent, what is the name of it? Having trouble finding a matching item on the web.
