Turn Your Tarp Or Wool Blanket Into a Functioning Backpack

  • Here's a detailed look at how I make my bedroll packs. This is a great way to utilize a tarp or blanket to carry gear from one camp to the next. It's far more functional than other bedroll methods as you can access the gear inside without having to take the whole bedroll apart.
    Let me know your thoughts in the comments below! Thank you to everyone who watches. See you in the next one! God Bless.

      last days is in reference to bible prophecy. a turning point, where the final war against satan and his demons would be fought. after armageddon people will be able to live in paradise on earth.
      i mean more in the since that things are getting worse by the day like open borders/cartel/fentanyl deaths are rampant, bio-engineering virus's (gain-of-function) cobid/bird flu rampant, bio-weaponized vaccine causing miocarditits/SADS/blood clots/AI disorders/and CANCER, cure for CANCER now out wich is really vaccine and causes cancer, lacing our foods with bugs to cause allergies, lacing our food with shellfish, anouncing vaccine in our cattle and crops, starting ministry of truth (just like nazi's), censoring and owning all media/narratives, purposefully wrecking 4 trains derailed this year (biggest disaster in history with vinyl chloride leached into rivers killing animals and people), WW3, and you get plenty more if you want me to list it for you.

    Out of curiosity, why put the belt knife and compass in the pack?
    For me, the belt knife would be, well, on my belt unless maybe I also had a pocket knife or multi-tool in my pocket and my compass is always in my pocket or on a lanyard around my neck.

    • @KuskBushcraft
      @KuskBushcraft  Рік тому

      Fair question. This was filmed before I packed out after spending a few nights camping. I no longer needed my belt knife. I do always have a pocket knife in my front pocket so if I needed a knife for anything I still had one readily available.
      As for the compass, I didn't need it for this trip. I knew where I was and where I was going. I moreso had it just for the sake of having it in case anything ever went wrong.
      Hope this clears things up. Thanks for watching! Happy trails.

    Hello Mr. Bushcraft. I have been watching your videos for quite some time now and have always thoroughly enjoyed them. One of the reason I did was the video and sound quality of what you post on this channel. Would you care to tell me what cameras and microphones you are using ? All the best to you.

    @MrFreeGman 8 місяців тому +1

    It doesn't seem wise to be using your bedding as the outer layer of a pack due to the possibility of getting it wet and soiled with mud/debris. I know wool is kinda water resistant and retains some of its insulation properties when wet, but who wants to get into bed on a cold night with a damp, dirty blanket wrapped around them? I would roll the entire thing up in some sort of waxed canvas shell or even just a tarp.

    • @billsemenoff
      @billsemenoff 3 місяці тому +1

      I like to make a separate "sub-wrap" of waterproof tarp for sleeping gear. And another tarp layer on the outside for abrasion resistance as you said. Nothing is 100% waterproof, but 2 layers of cheap replaceable poly tarp comes close

I imagine two queen size blankets wrapped round you thoroughly is more than warm enough for the winter nights here...sadly we don't have serious winters like Canada.
