Spring Hammock Camping. Wind. Thunder. Lightning. Flash Flood. A nutty group who decided it would be fun to camp in a severe thunderstorm & tornado warning. I brought a special day shelter to weather the storm and slept like a baby in my Warbonnet Ridgerunner hammock. Oh! There’s a bacon montage.
Thanks for watching. Cheers.

Sleeping bag (top quilt/under quilt) check, pillow check, 2 backpacks check, looks like you were prepared for this one!!! LOL!!! Wish I was there!!

@robpelton Год назад

Wish were there bro! Hey, indent always forget stuff. Haha.

@justcausee 7 месяцев назад

The immediate "buddies" was all I needed to hear to judge this friend group. Random male noises and antics will ensue and I'm all here for it.

@robpelton 7 месяцев назад

My group is an absolute hoot. Love those guys. Good company can really make or break a trip. Thanks for watching!

@janiedillingham3190 Год назад

I have a good friend who always says she works hard so she can play hard. And whenever you have the opportunity to go play in the woods, you should definitely take it! Ya'll obviously had a great time. I'm a little jealous.

@robpelton Год назад

Exactly right! Good words to live by. Don’t be jealous. Get out there!! Haha. Thanks for watching. Cheers.

@Mikehikes61 Год назад

Rob, damn you guy’s know how to make the most of a weekend that most people wouldn’t even think of going out in? Great video and thanks for taking us along.

@robpelton Год назад

We find the rays of sunshine where there isn’t much to be found. Great stories and memories come from these experiences. Thanks for watching!

Crazy rain ! I just love a storm in my hammock. Loved this.

Man, who would be crazy enough to drive down sketchy forest roads and camp in a severe thunderstorm... Don't they know they could've gotten their truck stuck at the trailhead?

@robpelton Год назад

Glad you got out. Otherwise, I would’ve used the Subie and never let you live it down. Lol.

@AudiaciousLife Год назад

id love to have a group like this out here when I go backpacking. so far i did a solo in the pouring rain and once with a buddy who had never been

@robpelton Год назад

It’s a magical thing to find the like-minded. From the humor to the open honest moments, they’re a treasured find. Get out there and find some misfits! Thanks for watching!

@@robpelton Of course I have some Outdoor Vitals gear, and probably too many gadgets and gizmos.

Lots of fun! Always seek the fun in a potential disaster. Haha. That’s bad advice by the way….

@stonedapeadventures Год назад

@rob pelton I never change plans because of weather it always works out just fine 🙂

@ExpeditionaryJonny Год назад

Rob, I really enjoyed this. Every time I see it snowing when I peeked outside of my office window, I think I need to be outdoors. Is it just me, but do the best times outdoors follow some rough weather. I loved this video because it showed how to deal with the elements and to still have fun. LOL. I love the Easter tent set up. Brother, I love your channel. You show what getting outdoors is all about.

@robpelton Год назад

I agree. Adversity brings adventure and your reaction to it makes all the difference. I appreciate the kind words and the support! Cheers.

@thahottestalive Год назад

Felt like I was there brother definitely watched it till the end, you know how to keep me entertained. Stay blessed

Much appreciated amigo!

@patneville7497 Год назад

Looks like a great time. We moved from SC where there are trees everywhere to Marshalltown, IA about a year & a half ago. So far I’ve only been able to hang in the back yard and the neighbors think I’m crazy. I don’t hang in the summertime; spring and fall are much nicer, usually.

@robpelton 10 месяцев назад

Welcome to north! Fall is amazing up here. Heck out yellow river. It’s pretty nice for Iowa! Thanks for watching. Cheers.

@MeOutside Год назад

You pealed that potato; nice look bro. Hammocks kick ass but I’m getting into my Duplex and I love it.

Hi, have you had any other War Bonnet hammocks? I have a Eldorado but am thinking of the Ridgerunner. Can I ask your thoughts on it? cheers

@robpelton 4 месяца назад

I haven’t owned any other Warbonnet’s, but I do know the Eldorado is a completely different hammock compared to the Ridgerunner. My buddy Midwest Backpacker actually did a similar comparison vid. Check it out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ks6Trl6W31c.htmlsi=rmjdSLgrA-DJqwva

@mikelegvold1085 5 месяцев назад

What kind of underquilt protector did you use on this one? Looking to get one for my RR.

@robpelton 5 месяцев назад

Although Warbonnet does make one for the WBRR, the one I have is from 2QZQ. Works great!

@waltbrim5897 Год назад

Looks like a bunch of fun. Wondering which twig stove that is. I've been thinking about getting one.

@robpelton Год назад

This one is the Emberlit titanium. Nice little stove. Thanks for watching!

@MrF4tty Год назад

Rob, I will search your videos but what tarp shelter is that? I have been looking into Aquaquest tarps but that looks really nice and if it held up to that storm it must be a good one!

@robpelton Год назад

It’s a 3m 3m DD tarp. Here ya go! amzn.to/44AO25i

@kevindean9056 Год назад

Really enjoy watching you guys hang out! Did I see some of you with down chair back covers? If so, where did you get them? Just recently subscribed and really enjoying your stuff. Thank you!

@robpelton Год назад

Yes! They make underquilts for the chairs. Mine is from REI, but Dutchware Gear makes them as well. They’re nice! I appreciate the support and for watching!

@wazoologist Год назад

My wife and I loved this vid, thank you. Your Ridgerunner, is it double layer and 40D? Looking at maybe getting one in the Nov sales.

@robpelton Год назад

Yea! The double has more weight capacity and doesn’t stretch quite as much. Plus, the Dream-Tex fabric is so nice next to skin. Thanks for watching!

@Archer21344 Год назад

What an awesome trip. Your always making great videos. Where did you get the chair insulation?

@robpelton Год назад

Thanks Ryan! The Underquilt for my chair is from REI. They may be discontinued though. However, I think Dutchware Gear has them. Thanks for watching!

@EricPangilinan 6 месяцев назад

What's the brand name/model of the stove you used to burn twigs?

@robpelton 6 месяцев назад

That twig stove is the titanium version by Emberlit. Works great! amzn.to/48zf6Da

@wookiee2cu Год назад

What is the fire starting, what looks like a wood chunk, you use at 18:22 that you have in a tin can? I just received some Esbit fire tablets and those things smell awful, like fish oil or something. They are still in the shipping box which contains the individual 3 boxes with 12 tables in each one and the smell is still escaping. I can't imaging a zip lock bag would do much good and I don't want everything in my bag smelling like fish. Thanks!

@robpelton Год назад

Those were basic fire starters from Coghlan’s. Very cheap and useful. amzn.to/3poIfA6

@robpelton Год назад

And Esbit are smelly! Haha.

Hi Scott. Nothing planned out that way, but I’m always looking for new spots. Suggestions?!

What camera are you using in vlog? It is so clear

@robpelton Год назад

Just an iPhone 13 Pro Max. Works well for me!

@Stag_Beetle Год назад

Hi Rob! Quick question, do you use a pillow in your ridge runner Hammock?

@robpelton Год назад

Yes I do! It’s actually a pillow stuff sack. Fleece on one side. I stuff it with any extra clothes and it clips into the head end of my hammock. I’ll have it in a video soon.

@Stag_Beetle Год назад

@@robpelton Thanks for the info! I currently use the Arrowhead Equipment bear pillow with my ridger runner which works well, but looking for ways to reduce weight and pack space if needed. The ridge runner has a head pocket so some users don't use a pillow at all, but I'm curious how comfortable it is. I know you really like your hammock and I didn't see a pillow in your video, so I thought I'd get your opinion. I like your stuff sack idea. Thanks again!

@janiedillingham3190 Год назад

When a raccoon is up and about during the daytime (mid-day, not early morning or evening), there's definitely something wrong with it. Most likely rabies. You're lucky it scampered off! I once had a raccoon turn on me and chase me back inside my house. He was a ferocious little sucker!
