Winter Hammock Camping
Переглядів 283День тому
This was a great overnight winter hammock camping trip. My friend Chris joined me hiking out to a camp spot I had found earlier in the year. The hike was 3 miles and the temps ranged from 41 degrees to a low of 22 degrees. The trails were snow covered but were not to bad to traverse. Tee Spring link carlson-adventures.creator-spring.com

2023 Appalachian Trail Section Hike | Day 3
Wow, that's crazy! I'm glad they took care of it, but I may be going renergy now!
I might have missed it in the comments but we would love to know what dates you were hiking. Three of us are hiking this same trail later this spring. Thanks for the helpful videos.
This was in the middle part of March.
Is that thumbnail AIs interpretation of Brian Carlson ?? What a Hunk ! This is the first time I approve of AI 😂😂 . Glad you got your power station issue settled . If you had anymore issues you should’ve just name dropped THG ! 😂
@@michaelpetersonbackpacking6077 Thanks for the compliment stud. I wasn’t going to drop THG’s name unless I really needed to.
@@CarlsonAdventuresit gets you a 10percent discount at Golden Corral
What month was this? I know it’s an older video, but I was just wondering. Thanks!
It was towards the end of March.
I had the exact same response with my Sea To Summit sleeping pad. I bought it on Amazon and they said it wasn't an approved seller. What is it with that? I ended up fixing it myself. Just be ready to play the UA-camr card! Its our only leverage!
I just watched this two more times while on my lunch break 😂😂😂😂 it’s still funny .
@@michaelpetersonbackpacking6077 I appreciate the views. Lol
😅
😂😂😂😂😂 this was a long time ago right ??? He’s learned a lot since then ?
@@michaelpetersonbackpacking6077 yes. A long time ago.
😂😂😂😂
Look you can’t make your entire UA-cam career making fun of me LOL
Lmao
😂😂
Nice work!!! That thing is tiny!!!
Twss
😂😂!!!!
Good info 😅
😂😂😂😂 how many times do I get to revisit that moment by the fire???
@@michaelpetersonbackpacking6077 as many ways as I can think of!
I spy a good lookin sticker!! 🤘🤘
Um I don’t see song credit anywhere LOL
@@thathikingguy royalty free music my friend
@@CarlsonAdventuresI mean creation credit LOL
I was looking into those when trying to find a powerbank that will fit in my small EDC pouch. Basically a 21700 battery. You can stick it in a 21700 flashlight. The Wurkkos TS22 flashlight actually has reverse charging so can use any 21700 with it and use it as a powerbank. I think Nitecore has a lantern that uses 21700 so can be dual use.
@@rodoutdoors I saw on their website a lot of different uses for it. I thought it was perfect if you’re wanting to keep your weight down for an overnight trip.
@CarlsonAdventures Definitely. Very versatile. It's still pretty much an exposed lithium ion battery. Try not to drop it in the water lol.
Nice! I'm always looking for the lightest batteries. I've become an Anker fanboy just bc they've always performed to their claimed mAh rating!
I have a Anker power bank that I have used for years. Definitely a great brand b
Good review bro
Thank you!
I like some chocolate Carnation instant breakfast in mine! (or Kahlua)
You guys are hilarious
Looks like the older pre shaker jet model. The generator can be cleaned too, pull the cable out of the generator tube, use a propane torch to cook the carbon off it and flush the it with fresh fuel.
It all starts with fire maple gear
@@thathikingguy you’re such a fan boy.
I just hope to make it that good one day😂. Thanks for your secret. LOL
I will be giving classes soon !
Always a good day kamping with Bud!! J & C
Absolutely. Miss you guys. Will have to try to get together this year!
MP is lame! He was probably hanging out and comparing heaters with that chief's fan 😂😂😂
I’m sure he was. Lol
Well done guy’s. Winter camping means bigger packs
I had my 40l pack stuffed!
youtube recommends me this after watching Steve Wallis. great video man 👍
@@Jiipii Thank you!
What a fun trip. Hate when its hard to get that morning fire going. The heaving ice is wild. I've done some camping on the ice, in my ice fishing shelter. Its really an insane experience hearing that noise - especially when you sleep on it. The music you used making the coffee lol. Very epic.
@@DCOutdoors Thank you. We had fun as always. That was the first time sleeping near a frozen lake and hearing the crazy noise from the ice. I can’t imagine sleeping in it. Thanks for watching and take care!
Your intro was so much better than THG LOL. Just kidding. But anyway, great outing, great company, loved the music. Great site for sure. Can you even walk to that unless you do major bushwhacking when the lake is not frozen? I know you did it before but would it be easier to swim LOL?
You can definitely walk to it. Very little bushwhacking. The site is slightly slanted towards the lake so it wouldn’t be good for tent camping.
That was indeed.... an EPIC cup of coffee! Perfect auditory symbolism! So it wasn't that you were trying to weaken the ice before Chris walked over?? 🤔
One must always take his cup of coffee seriously and of course I was testing the ice for Chris. Always looking out for his safety!
Is that close to where we camped about a couple of years ago? Beautiful scenery with the sun over the water. Mmmm cornbread. Yummy Cool area and video 👍🏻👍🏻
@@BackpackingWithJason It’s a different location a couple miles from where we camped when you were with us. I stumbled on this campsite last summer on a off trail solo trip.
Most dramatic coffee ever. Well done.
@@Ambohouse thank you Sir. You can’t mess around when making coffee. Hope you and Ashley are doing well.
No invite!!!! Looks like a fun weekend!!! Deam Wilderness is still on the list to visit!!!
I’ll get a trip planned once the weather gets better and get you up here and show you around.
@@CarlsonAdventures sounds like a plan. I love the view from the site!!!
Oh man !! Let’s clear Things up a bit … even though it’s no ones business. I’ve had a bowl issue for about three weeks. Enough so that I’ve been a little worried about it .When my “new buddy “(who was actually your buddy first) and I were camping last weekend I had to leave the comfort of my little teardrop camper four times in the middle of the night. I only barely made it to the -4 deg vault toilet 4 times. So when you invited me to join you , of course I wanted to come hang out, I just didn’t want to possibly make any messes in my expensive backpacking gear 😂😂
And I’m still your buddy right??
Dear Michael. Yes we can still be buddies. Sorry to hear about your “condition “. I was really hurt thinking you had left us for the guy with the van and diesel heater. Hope you get well soon.
There is no shame in ultralight backpacking depends undergarments jus sayin 😂
If Brian was a real friend he would have offered to dig you catholes.... lol.
Great time bro. Awesome coffee montage. Always an adventure even 8 years later
@@thathikingguy Thanks. You gotta have a good coffee montage is your videos.
Looks like at least some of the snow has melted away . How was the walking and trail conditions ?
Trails were still snowy in the bottoms but not bad. Most of snow is gone now b
FireMaple relased g2 which is a litle bit bigger than this g3. Aliexpress soto made stove for 12 dolars this with triflex pod is ideal for this pots.
Yes. I saw that FireMaple released the G2 right after I filmed this.
Would have totally tagged along! Looks great!
Hey man , do you HAVE to camp in the designated area ? Or can you camp anywhere? so long as it doesn’t require a bear can location.
@@southernSCkid There are some “stealth sites” here and there. They really prefer for you to camp at the designated areas or in or around the shelters.
Great 👍👍 trip.... Lovely adventure to explore 👍👍
Thank you
The Petrel pot works even better with the Polaris stove (micro regulator).
Thanks for the info. I’ll have to check that out!
Carlson, im here because you care (and chris wont let my comment post) you care Carlson, 😂 ps. I bet your wife does kick your ass
That’s awesome. What wheels and tires do you have on your truck?
Hahaha ok, yours was WAY funnier than Chris's. Probably why you won the view war against his video. Stinks he has to spend so much time editing out your comments in his videos though! 😅 Super fun, wish we could've made it!
Looks like a great time!! Also, I feel like I should send some tip money, between the pumping, layers and other activities😂 😂😂
That intro!!!!!! 😂😂😂 the twice cooked bacon sold me. This video lived up to the thumbnail.
Glad you enjoyed it. And we all know it’s better than THG’s
@@CarlsonAdventuresbut it’s not though soooo…
I ordered one about 2 weeks ago from FM, it still hasn't left China. If I had known the origin country, I never would have bought one. I have my doubts I'll ever get this pot.
@@kevinjames8214 it took mine almost two weeks to get
How did you get @thathikingguy out?
