Hahaha I thought the exact same when I watched it back 😄 so silly. To be fair though once the sun starts getting low I never see anyone in the woods.. it's the morning dog walkers I gotta hide from mostly. Bless you thanks 💚have a lovely week!
Happy May Wild Ones! It's finally WARM 😍I think soon I might get out on my first non-freezing multi-nighter this year :D woohoo. Got any hiking or camping plans this spring/summer?
Thanks for sharing Claire! I just made a Bivy Bag and I can't wait to get out and try it. You've inspired me to do a couple of overnight trips this year! Lots of plans, and lots of new gear!!
Awesome! I love your channel ❤ I am a "pro" hammock camper, family tradition down south where im from, and i discovered my talent for ropes at a young age. Recently, i became homeless, and i live in the city. Ive been stealth camping with a hammock for years, mainly to try out Do-It-Yourself gear i make, for hammock camping. Ive been stealth camping in local Hill top public parks, some urbanized and one wild. I was inside of a california redwood tree, 10ft up and no one could see me unless they were under the tree! And no other homeless people, or worse, could get to me up there. I slept very well and even pitched my tarp up there. Getting inside the tree involved parkour, and set up was almost like the old time sail ships, with the climbing and rigging. Hammocks are difficult to hide! Im taking a page out of birds and nesting my hammock ontop of hills, or places with sloping ground, or inside of large trees. So far, so good. I am safe from the dangerous drug addicts in my city, nested away in hammock bird nests.
i'm sorry to hear you're homless, but glad that you seem to be managing so well :0 have you got any tips for setting a hammock up high? i've tried once and found out it's really hard to get into a hammock without being able to touch the ground. Even with a loadbearing ridgeline
Hey man why you are homeless? If you want to work , please come to Eastern Europe, we need so many native English teachers. You will get not bad money and respect, just think about it
I’m not a person that normally comments on any videos, but you vanishing and the bloopers were so very fun to watch. Thank you for bringing some smiles to my face ;)
Hi Claire. Thank you so much for all your videos! I love every one. I hate giving unsolicited advice as much as I do receiving it so I will just share my hammock experience and let everyone camp their own camp. I found that in a gathered end hammock(not the trough type with the spreader bars) that if I lay in it diagonally, then I can lay very flat rather than have my neck and spine curved like a banana . It feels weird at first because we don't normally sleep in a bed or on a mat that way. It has greatly improved my comfort while hammock camping. Give it a go if you like. You might find that it makes your hammock adventures even more comfy and cozy. Thanks again Claire!
My hammock says to do this, but I can't figure it out, to be honest - the automatic bundling up of the hammock always presses me so I end up straight, unless I lay down practically horizontally, but then my head and feet don't fit in. How do you manage it so you stay in that diagonal position?
@@xthinker88 I've always found if you are reasobably tall a double gathered end hammock helps tremendously in getting that diagonal or ' Brazilian lay' spot on due to the extra width it affords. Another good trick is to experiment with the amount of sag until you get it dialled in pefectly. Once you've found that sweet spot you can attach an adjustable structural ridgeline made from dynema cord to make the process easily repeatable each time when setting up your suspension webs or whoopee slings.
Claire your ability to try anything keeps us glued to your videos. it never gets boring and you explain everything in a way that makes it a pleasure to watch. thank you for being you 🙏💜
I think if I was stealth camping I’d spend an inordinate amount of time and effort making sure my lights weren’t visible. And I’m definitely not a hammock guy but I appreciate your efforts 🫶🏻 My hiking days are pretty much over but I very much appreciate your videos from the forests. “Have a little nature reset” is the best advice I’ve heard in a while.
So glad I watched the video day. It’s day 85 of chemo and I “hit” a wall. Your video definitely cheered me up. Long time subscriber, but I believe this is my first comment. Cheers🤙
Hey Claire! If you hang your hammock, try and make sure that your rope, isnt more then 30degrees, otherwise you'll get folded up like a banana! The way to check this is to hold your fingers like a pistol, if the thumb and the tip of the pointer finger touch the rope, it's a good lay. Anything less then 30, you'll risk falling out, anything more it's like being a banana. Can't wait to get out and overnight in my hammock setup again... SOON!
... and once u got that 30ish° figured out I'd highly advise you get some non stretch cord, like dyneema and tie in a ridgeline to permanently fix that sag, no matter how much you play with the tie-outs to the trees. (The length is usually about 83% of the hammock length as a guide). Happy camping!!
Lovely camp and video. Love the care you showed to the moth....awesome! I'm watching this as I'm halfway through my week on the Welsh Coastal Path, Fishguard to Newquay, just set up camp for the night, not in a hammock as I've got the dog with me. The weather has been mixed but today was gloriously warm. Your video is a wonderful way to end the day. 👍👍
Heyy ahh wow, proper adventure that! How nice to share it with your dog too 💚 I first started wild camping with my dog (before I stared the channel), we had the best times out together. Hope the rest of your trip is amazing, looks like you have a few nice weather days coming :D thank you for watching my lil video, happy trails friend 🌿🌿
@@WildBeare Thanks Claire. So far it's been amazing, scenery and wildlife stunning, Dolphins jumping in the sea and grey seals in secluded bays. If there were less people I'd call it paradise... 😉 Hope you are right about the weather but it's Wales so who knows. 👍👍
Very nice, Claire. It was nice seeing you out in nice spring weather. Also, nice to see you out without the wind and rain. I had to laugh, you trying to set up your camp and be so stealthy, lower the hammock, put up the camo netting, then put up your lights. I suppose if those were walking trails, there wouldn't be many walkers after dark. You're a beautiful, courageous young lady. It will be nice to see what you have in store for us this spring and summer. God bless you, young lady, and stay safe on your adventures.
today i brought out my brand new little Trangia stove into the local woods to eat some sausages for lunch, watched a storm roll in.... it was honestly just. such a little treat. you've been an inspiration to me to get out more just for lil moments. i live in the city, so its sometimes hard to find spaces to go, so whenever i get the chance to, its heavenly. thank you for sharing your lil videos with us!
Hey there Claire, nice of you dropping in. Thar hammock was a bit of a stretch but worked out well. Nice and comfy. Great to hang out with you, another inspiring video. Cheers, Rich
Hey my lovely wild friend! What a relaxing little camp, that looked amazing! So lovely to see the sunshine and actual, real life signs of spring! Finally!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Love the hammock setup....just roll out of bed for morning coffee. And it beats falling out of a top bunkbed in the middle of the night. I picked up the same alcohol stove 2 mths back and fell in love with it. One word of warning though (just found out the hard way!) The rubber o-ring generally doesn't fall out and holds up well if you let the stove cool first...no leaks. But once the stove gets carbonized/dirty it can stick to the rim of stove, and in low light you MAY not see it! I didn't, only to smell plastic burning...argh! Time for a new stove or 2.
Hi. As a long-time hammock camper, I think the best way to be comfortable in a gathered end hammock like yours is to get a diagonal lay. You'll need a little more slack in the hammock itself than is afforded by simply tying off to trees. You can install a ridgeline directly to the ends of the hammock itself that will keep the gathered ends a set distance apart no matter how you attach to the trees. This will allow you to lay more diagonally in the hammock, which keeps your body flatter and not as much of a banana. You'll have to play around with it to figure out the length that works best with your body and that particular hammock, but once it's dialed in, you can leave it installed on the hammock and have the perfect lay every time (use a cord that will not stretch). I also suggest you attach your head end just a little lower on the tree than your foot end. It seems counter-intuitive, but it's actually more comfortable that way.
Where I live you have to have a tarp or some kind of roof over your head at night are you will wake up feeling like it tained on you because of the heavy dew we have around here. Glad to see that you are doing well! Thanks for sharing your camping adventures with us.
Sudoku is my favorite, I am horrible at them, but I enjoy trying.😅 Claire you are such a sneaky little bear.😊 You are so good at camouflage it’s amazing, the deer didn’t even know.😊 You are so brave out there all alone.
Claire, I had to giggle more than a few times watching you put up your hammock. Been there more times than I care to admit. But, there is something to be had when everything finally works, you fall in, and all is right in the world! 😃
That cammo netting looks good. I've been wanting to do this with my motorbike for a while now, the netting might just be the final piece of the puzzle. Cheers
Fab vid Claire. Amazing camo nets for bare woodland leaf surroundings. Tip for hammock sleeping is to position head and feet diagonally which reduces the bend of your back. Also a foam mat in there helps (can cut mat corners off if you want). Inspired me to get mine out again xx
I've been camping since the early 80's, as a Cadet, then in the military and now roof top tent camping - I have been all over the Brecon Beacons, Dartmoor, Lake and Peak District, Snowdonia and there is something so magical about it and a feeling that never leaves you. It allows me to do a lot of photography and filming and appreciate the finer things in life - it is so refreshing seeing you bringing these delights to so many and keeping the magic going - May it long continue, keep well and stay safe and thank you.
Ahh I like this video! A little chillin time. The Hammock looked so comfy !! Ideal for a day camp 🏕️ Perfect setup with the tarp underneath. 😂😂Love how you rolled over the hammock with style! You made it look so easy . 😂 I wondered how you drop in with your gear!! Funny and Cool!! Thank you for taking the time to share it. 😂Lots of love!❤️ Have a wonderful weekend!!✨📚
Such a cozy looking lil' overnighter Claire! I'm so happy that you were able to get some hang time in the ol' hammock 😊 Absolutely loved the outtakes at the end there too 😂 Thank you for sharing another fun adventure :) Hope you have an amazingly wonderful week my friend! :) Stay wild.... 🐻 -John
Hey John! It was nice to go for a lil swing there :) I'm hoping to be out & about, weather looks like it's gonna be gorgeous here 😍 makes a damn change haha. Hope you have a lovely weekend too friend, thank you for watching 🌿🐻
@@WildBeare Always a pleasure Claire 😊 I'm so glad to hear that the weather is going to be gorgeous there! I hope that you're enjoying it to the fullest!
I went camping over the weekend with a friend, I took my out Sunny cot tent combo , an tested it out. It was very different so it's going to take some getting used to.
One of these mini bag hammocks made the time my wife and I were homeless so much more bearable.we figured out if you flip over quick enough two people can lay in the edges and have a solid waterproof surface over you for rainstorms
What a wonderful adventure! I have not seen a stealth hammoc camp before. Very cleverly done! Thank you for the fun bloopers. So fun! See you in the next video.
Claire you have done it again- success! This was a treat- I like the idea of a natural reset, essential for a healthy state of mind. Good thing that even the dogs didn’t notice. Well done my good friend ❤🌱🌿🧘🏼🙏
Think this is my first comment on one of your vids but I've been lurking subscribed and liking for a couple of years. What a nice, warm hearted fun little vid this was. It just struck me that I enjoyed every minute of it so thought I should say so really. So, well done! I bought a tent and trekology mats and bits a year ago but chickened out on a wild camp, just stayed in the garden 😂 Plan now it's getting warmer is to start with a camp site in the Lakes and then give a wild one a go 🙈 Looking forward to your next big hike through the bogs up the side of an unpronounceable Welsh mountain soon. 😎
Pro tips: Head end of hammock needs to be lower than foot end by about a foot (as you are laying down. Lay diagonally, not like a banana, if possible in your hammock. Suspension should usually be around the tree at or below your own eye level as you stand by the tree (varies by your height of course) will give you about 1 to 2 feet of ground clearance.
Hey Claire, great video as always. Get your self some DD whoopie slings, game charger for a fast set up for your hammock camps, really adjustable for a perfect hang, Stay Wild!
Great episode, a night in a hammock is great, I haven't had the opportunity to test the whole night in a hammock yet, Mutcjack, I see that there are a lot of them in your area, in my place in Norfolk they walk on the sidewalk in the town in the forest, there are also a lot of them around the tents Take care 🏕️🧉
I love your videos, your calmness and the way you approach things. I myself are a total newbie in camping. Maybe you could one day share about your meals, that you heat up. How do you keep them without cooling. Take care and stay safe.
Thanks for another wonderfully relaxing video. Hammock in the woods does sound like a plan. If you're interested, the 'spider' was actually a harvestman (order Opiliones - also an arachnid, so related to spiders). There are thousands of different ones and most are omnivores, eating things as diverse as insects, fungi, plants and dead and decaying stuff. Probably not spag bol though. Phew.
What a setup! And another groovy video! Also loved the out takes at the end. 🤣🤣 Keep being you’re awesome self and thanks again for your content, tips and adventures! -Liam 🇦🇺 🤙🏿
I love camping, and the topics of Ms Claire's videos resonate with me. All I can say is that I reaisze the creation of these videos is very tine and skill intensive - so thanks - please keep it up!
Well done Claire, you did a great job this being your first try. I love hearing the birds but I don't know what kind they are. I like to do card games when I camp. Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip. Have a wonderful day and stay safe.
Good morning, my favourite womble . That name is just sticking to you 😊 Just love your easy-going way...don't ever change ...... Nice easy to copy post .. and yes, spring is here at last 👍more time to get my backside outside and go hiking with my lads ... All the best from North Germany...M
*_Hello Claire... there is always something interesting to watch in each of your videos, and I really like this, camouflage camp... Greetings from me Rudy in Indonesia.........._*
Nice to see you back out looked nice and dry hope you enjoyed your self no frank with you never mind looked a nice night stay safe one life enjoy blessed be
So much space in there too. You was cooking 'inside'! You made that really cosy in the end and didn't sleep on the hard floor. I learned about Muntjac too, on the internet and decided you are a little Muntjac! Great video.
Happy Tukkaiyyd day, WB! One thing I discovered recently, after 40 years of hammock camping. If you lay on it on a 30° angle to the rope, you can lay very flat and straight. Made my favorite Denim hammock even better. Godbless!
I had no idea there were muntjacs in the UK. We have them here in Taiwan and their call is very similar, like a cross between a dog's bark and a crow's caw.
Used to this quite often a few years ago with a couple friends of mine. String the hammocks up in a sort of triangle formation - each one under an Australian hoochie tarp then chuck a cammo' net over.
Glad to see you camping in some decent weather for a change. My son always takes a hammock when he’s solo camps. We’ve always had hammocks at the house to relax in and he loves sleeping in one.
Claire "You cant see my camp from the footpath", Claire then installs a Lighthouse. 😂😂You are an absolute gem, don`t ever change.
Hahaha I thought the exact same when I watched it back 😄 so silly. To be fair though once the sun starts getting low I never see anyone in the woods.. it's the morning dog walkers I gotta hide from mostly. Bless you thanks 💚have a lovely week!

I am a "pro" hammock camper, family tradition down south where im from, and i discovered my talent for ropes at a young age.
Recently, i became homeless, and i live in the city. Ive been stealth camping with a hammock for years, mainly to try out Do-It-Yourself gear i make, for hammock camping. Ive been stealth camping in local Hill top public parks, some urbanized and one wild.
I was inside of a california redwood tree, 10ft up and no one could see me unless they were under the tree! And no other homeless people, or worse, could get to me up there. I slept very well and even pitched my tarp up there. Getting inside the tree involved parkour, and set up was almost like the old time sail ships, with the climbing and rigging.
Hammocks are difficult to hide! Im taking a page out of birds and nesting my hammock ontop of hills, or places with sloping ground, or inside of large trees.
So far, so good. I am safe from the dangerous drug addicts in my city, nested away in hammock bird nests.

Thank you, interesting!
Also see the, disc-o-bed, it's heavy and should be inside the tent, but they do sell a mosquito net and any rigg line will put a roof on it.
4:00 "cozy little home for the night" is my magic words

Yes. That’s the way to do it. Otherwise your back is a shallow c shape all night which is not good. Sleeping diagonally lets you lay flat.
@@xthinker88 I've always found if you are reasobably tall a double gathered end hammock helps tremendously in getting that diagonal or ' Brazilian lay' spot on due to the extra width it affords.
Another good trick is to experiment with the amount of sag until you get it dialled in pefectly. Once you've found that sweet spot you can attach an adjustable structural ridgeline made from dynema cord to make the process easily repeatable each time when setting up your suspension webs or whoopee slings.
So nice to watch a pleasant camp where you're not suffering in the wind & rain. Those videos stress me out!

Claire you have done it again- success! This was a treat- I like the idea of a natural reset, essential for a healthy state of mind. Good thing that even the dogs didn’t notice. Well done my good friend ❤🌱🌿🧘🏼🙏
Wild bearer what an angel .loved her for years. You go girl😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
Omg please make more vids I love you and your voice is beautiful 😍 love it . 😍 i love videos like this . 👍🏽keep them coming I’ll keep watching. 😘
That's one of the best setups you've done Claire. Beautiful little ‘ nook’ stealthily formed!
Very cool camp I like it very much. Thank you for sharing.
Of all your videos that I've watched, and I'm pretty sure I've watched them all, I love your stealth ones the best. Good stuff, keep it coming! 👍
I love the way you solve problems and even discomforts! And your disposition is always pleasant!
Think this is my first comment on one of your vids but I've been lurking subscribed and liking for a couple of years.
What a nice, warm hearted fun little vid this was. It just struck me that I enjoyed every minute of it so thought I should say so really. So, well done!
I bought a tent and trekology mats and bits a year ago but chickened out on a wild camp, just stayed in the garden 😂 Plan now it's getting warmer is to start with a camp site in the Lakes and then give a wild one a go 🙈
Looking forward to your next big hike through the bogs up the side of an unpronounceable Welsh mountain soon. 😎
Pro tips: Head end of hammock needs to be lower than foot end by about a foot (as you are laying down. Lay diagonally, not like a banana, if possible in your hammock. Suspension should usually be around the tree at or below your own eye level as you stand by the tree (varies by your height of course) will give you about 1 to 2 feet of ground clearance.
Good tips!
Thank you! Very helpful, I have screenshot this so that I can come back to it next time I try :D
Looked comfy. Hope you enjoyed yourself. Stay well and be safe.
That was a harvestmen nom nom nomming on a woodlouse, btw. 😉 Great videos. Love stealth camping!
Claire is awesome. A real deal.Thanks for your chanel, Claire and Steve Wallace are the best camping on you tube.
Thrilled to be mentioned in the same sentence as the legendary Steve Wallis 🤩 thank you :) 🌿
Hey Claire, great video as always. Get your self some DD whoopie slings, game charger for a fast set up for your hammock camps, really adjustable for a perfect hang, Stay Wild!
Great episode, a night in a hammock is great, I haven't had the opportunity to test the whole night in a hammock yet, Mutcjack, I see that there are a lot of them in your area, in my place in Norfolk they walk on the sidewalk in the town in the forest, there are also a lot of them around the tents
Take care
🏕️🧉
I like the sound of the nature reset. Think we could all do with that🙃
I love your videos, your calmness and the way you approach things. I myself are a total newbie in camping. Maybe you could one day share about your meals, that you heat up. How do you keep them without cooling. Take care and stay safe.
Really enjoyed the adventure and your out takes. Thank you!
Thanks for another wonderfully relaxing video. Hammock in the woods does sound like a plan.
If you're interested, the 'spider' was actually a harvestman (order Opiliones - also an arachnid, so related to spiders). There are thousands of different ones and most are omnivores, eating things as diverse as insects, fungi, plants and dead and decaying stuff.
Probably not spag bol though. Phew.
Hiya, another perfect setup with the weather on your side. Well done 👍 great soundtrack.
That camo netting was cool, must get. Loved the end bit, non spoiler, I did wonder how you did it.
Thank you for making videos, I really enjoy seeing those. They feel cute, genuine, warm and fresh air.
The most radiant, humbly beautiful camper out there…!!!!!!
What a setup! And another groovy video!
Also loved the out takes at the end. 🤣🤣
Keep being you’re awesome self and thanks again for your content, tips and adventures!

I love camping, and the topics of Ms Claire's videos resonate with me. All I can say is that I reaisze the creation of these videos is very tine and skill intensive - so thanks - please keep it up!
Haven’t commented in a while but watch every single vlog you do ..love the subject and your adventures …..thanks
Well done Claire, you did a great job this being your first try. I love hearing the birds but I don't know what kind they are. I like to do card games when I camp. Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip. Have a wonderful day and stay safe.
That looks like an amazing blissful camping place and idea. Love it. Love your vids ❤😊
Good morning, my favourite womble . That name is just sticking to you 😊 Just love your easy-going way...don't ever change ...... Nice easy to copy post .. and yes, spring is here at last 👍more time to get my backside outside and go hiking with my lads ... All the best from North Germany...M
*_Hello Claire... there is always something interesting to watch in each of your videos, and I really like this, camouflage camp... Greetings from me Rudy in Indonesia.........._*
Thank you for the lovely vid, Claire bear! I'm so glad that you brought back the pop outs and outtakes!
You’re a special kind of crazy - and I love it! I always enjoy your videos and look forward to the next one. Take care and stay safe. x
«Little nature reset»-a very nice expression. :)
Nice to see you back out looked nice and dry hope you enjoyed your self no frank with you never mind looked a nice night stay safe one life enjoy blessed be
So much space in there too. You was cooking 'inside'! You made that really cosy in the end and didn't sleep on the hard floor. I learned about Muntjac too, on the internet and decided you are a little Muntjac! Great video.
Hi Claire, I just watched this your latest camping adventure as I’m in my tent in the west Australian bush close to home. Aaagh the simple pleasures.
Just beautiful!! Thx for amazing Video, cant wait for spring Videos!! Greez my Love from freezing Switzerland ❤
Thank goodness, a new WildBeare. Something to watch finally.
Happy Tukkaiyyd day, WB!
One thing I discovered recently, after 40 years of hammock camping. If you lay on it on a 30° angle to the rope, you can lay very flat and straight. Made my favorite Denim hammock even better. Godbless!
I knew it was going to be a fun episode, when I saw the camo netting in the intro. lol You picked the right colour, for the environment.
I had no idea there were muntjacs in the UK. We have them here in Taiwan and their call is very similar, like a cross between a dog's bark and a crow's caw.
I also love hammock camping. I have a camo hammock and dark green tarp. I think your setup is much better than mine.
Beauty returns to the great outdoors. I love using the hammock. Definitely more comfortable than the ground
😊hi joung lady that sudoku book I myself keep my brain working on the 1 to 9 figures in the square boxes.
Stay safe on your camps! Really enjoy your videos very calming, cute and well edited
She evens goes “poof” at the beginning of her videos too - I love it😍
I love stealth camping too. I enjoy your videos on this type of camping as well. Thank you Claire. Love from Texas ❤❤❤❤
It's great fun isn't it :D thanks for watching, best wishes from England 🌿🐻
Love the vid. Love the bloopers more.! Keep them coming mate. Cheers from Australia.
I think I need to try the hammock thing it looks fun. Nothing like a nature reset. 👍😁
You are brilliant in the way you video your adventures, I have enjoyed your honesty with the pitches. ❤ I love your ideas
I love hammock camping! It looks like you had another great adventure!I've been occasionally doing it over 15 years now and loving how easy it is.
Used to this quite often a few years ago with a couple friends of mine. String the hammocks up in a sort of triangle formation - each one under an Australian hoochie tarp then chuck a cammo' net over.
Glad to see you camping in some decent weather for a change.
My son always takes a hammock when he’s solo camps. We’ve always had hammocks at the house to relax in and he loves sleeping in one.
