  • It is great to be back out in the wilderness! I managed to get out and spend a night sleeping under my tarp. My camp was simple but comfortable. I cooked up a couple delicious meals and thoroughly enjoyed my time camping. In this episode I share a few camping tips and tricks that will make camping easier and more comfortable.

    In camp - and sometimes at home too - I’ll add a gaggle of cut up veggies to cook in with the rice. Onions, garlic, sweet pepper, etc. Jerky goes well in there too. “Camp site pilaf”!

Great edit I've always enjoyed them, love your back to basics way of bushcraft and you can make the simplest of food look really yummy. Hopefully life will let you do another one soon. All the best my friend Pete.

    Nice one Riley. Just camping alone in the woods, keeping it simple with as little kit as possible is the most satisfying thing in the world. That message definitely comes across in your videos and I so relate to that!
    Oh and I got a couple of old canvas duffel bags that I have been pondering about how to convert into a backpack. You did a nice job of yours! Awesome idea ditching the closing clip with carry strap for a simpler and lighter solution. That soda pop can opening lid is brilliant🙂

    • @KuskBushcraft
      @KuskBushcraft  Рік тому

      Thanks for the kind words. I quite like the new pack. It's not really meant for backpacking but after a few modifications it's a pleasure to pack around. I really like that all my gear fits inside of it and I don't need to strap gear to the outside like I used to with my old pack.
      The can tab was meant to be a temporary solution while I tested the pack.. but it's working quite well and I see no need to replace it. Keep it simple I suppose.
      Thanks again for taking the time to watch and comment. See you in the next one!

  • @TheCanadianBeaver

All the best to you my brother and always remember to follow your nose!🍁🦫

    Riley! Always nice to hear from you, glad you're still able to upload! You are an amazing storyteller!
    Do you already know which shots to take or do you simply film a lot of angles and put it together in post? Most people could barely be able to survive if they had your pack and yet you have time to film your experience and are mindful of what you are trying to show your viewers.

    • @KuskBushcraft
      @KuskBushcraft  Рік тому +5

      Thank you for your kind words.
      I just film everything on the fly. Set up my camera and try to capture interesting shots. If I want different angles I will move my camera around. Nothing's really planned before hand. The more I do it the better my filming has become. I still have lots to improve upon but that's part of the process. Happy trails!
