    Ken, your videos bring a calm and peacefulness to my otherwise hectic and stressful life. I find it very cathartic. Thank you man of serenity.

    Hi Ken,
    When hiking in the desert, our dog Always digs a small impression to lie down in. 😁

    I'm an avid outdoors senior with a congenital syndrome, so I don't sweat! I always try to be near water to cool off in, and I noticed some places on my new land/camping spot are so much cooler. Thanks for this information. If I can't be in a hammock over some water, watching you do it is the next best thing! Love it! Stay well, June R. (I hiked to the outlook with you and the group at Big South Fork many moons ago). Peace.

    Glad to see that you could get out in your wild spot and have a good time.
    Please be very careful as you ramble and roam around.
    We'll be needing to watch your
    new videos for more years to come
    Thanks again

      It was a bit more than helpful! As stated, I am a Trailboss for my county, and lead crews into our county's Parks and Preserves...here in West Central Florida. As we have had a big influx of new workers we are required to watch for "heat Index" and sometimes can't do the task. This helps me to help them prepare beforehand to handle the heat here better!

    Ken I have slowly gathered gear, 8 ten years. My base. Is heavy shower curtain. With a camo boy scout tent. And a camo tarp lay under wrap over top for shade rain flap. We found Mimi folding shovels. Like military only smaller in pouch screw together handle. Figured dig trench any water run off not under. And I've watched a million videos. -0 farrenhart sleeping bag. Mats,,, I can't carry weight. So bicycle, moter cycle, jeep. Can't go without. You have no idea how much I love your video s. Please get better soon. I'm set for stealth but just packed n ready.

    As well as H2O you need to monitor your salt loss - a pinch of salt with your water intake will help prevent cramps too.

    • @KennethKramm
      @KennethKramm  Рік тому +1

      Absolutely correct. That point will be included in the next episode. I tell my wife, that I can salt my food as much as I want, if I've been outside enjoy our wonderfully warm climate.

    It seems like I have to acclimate back to the cold, when the season changes.
    I put some potassium salt, plus a little sodium chloride in my water bottles. I also take magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium.
    I get calcium from food.

    • @KennethKramm
      @KennethKramm  Рік тому +1

      Acclimating works for all environmental changes. Years ago when I was a professor , we did many experiments demonstrating the acceleration to low temperatures is extremely important to performance and survival

    • @KennethKramm
      @KennethKramm  Рік тому

      That’s hard to say. My videos on survival and stealth camping … resulted in comments from veterans who were trying to come to terms with life in civilian world… where I some individuals discovered a purpose for stealing and survival camping outside of war. My videos provided calming thoughts and peace.

    thank you for your video. A biology question, how can an animal unable to sweat (anhydrosis)? can sweat again. I could not figure out .

    • @KennethKramm
      @KennethKramm  Рік тому

      I am not sure that I understand the question. Animals that don’t have sweat glands to cool down. Birds for example cool of by evaporative fluttering old open mouths, or in come cases (vultures by releaasing fluids (peep/ poop) on ther feet). Evaporative cooling can happen without sweat glands). Rodents do not have sweat glands and cool off moving around to places were it is cooler than their body temperature. They walk in water and cool off by evaporation on that water

      We survived the storm. Very interesting…California folks are acting as if this is a huge disaster. .. and it is, sine the are usually very dry.. and infrastructure is not designed for heavy rainstorms. However, it was nothing compered to the hurricanes we experienced every year on the Gulf Coast of Texas.
      It was fun to see frogs
      Jumping everywhere. They came out of estivation ( underground Similar to hibernation).
