  • I love looking for new places to camp. In this video, I go deep into bear country for an overnighter in my bear tent with an electric bear fence. Luckily I wasn't eaten. This is called a bear tent by RBM Outdoors. It's just a name. No magic bear proof materials.

    How much experience do I have?
    That depends. I am pretty good at starting a fire these days and gathering wood. But I don't really have true bushcraft skills and definitely no carpentry or construction skills or training. I could probably make a shelter if I had to, but that would just come from all the UA-cam training (watching) over the years.

    You can easily tell the difference between black bear scat and grizzly bear scat. Black bear scat has berries and sticks and the like in it and grizzly scat has bits of flannel and smells like pepper spray

    You can deter bears from entering camp sites with a portable electric bear fence. Small kit that brings huge peace of mind.

    Only thing I would ad is when sleeping in a tentt in bear country I never sleep with my head against the tent anywhere. Place your cot in the center of the tent for more protection.

    In Scotland we call those flys Clegs, not to be confused with the midge. Insects can make summer camping a trial. But then again at least we don’t have bears to worry about.

    That bear tent looks just big enough for you... and the bear.

    Awesome! Nothing like a little camping in in the midnight sun - with the mosquitos and horse flies! We were just next door, in the Yukon. Nice to be back in the north. 👍😎🇨🇦🌲💦🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🪰🪰🪰🪰

    Your bear spray still has the tie attached to it Jay, you have to cut it off for the spray to be able to function.

    Good gawd almighty. Backpackers spend every night of the summer in a tiny tent in Glacier National Park, surrounded by grizzlies, and don’t get et.

    We always called those Deer flys, and when they bite, you WILL bleed. Not pleasant! Never seen a bear fence before, thats pretty cool.

    I can do bugs living here in the South but bears, no way. I would have slept in the truck. Lol. Enjoyed the video.

    Years back when I lived in the UK I used to use a UV lamp that had an electric shock cage around it to kill off annoying flying bugs like mosquitoes. You might be able to find something similar that you can either run off batteries or the Jackery? Mine was AC powered, but very low wattage. Not so fun to clean out, but worked like a charm.

    Love the video, per usual. I’ve never seen the bear fence before, definitely may check that out for myself. I’m also super glad you have merch now, definitely going to look into getting me a cup or a shirt of sorts. Looking forward to the next video!

    I have 1 of those fan lights, works awesome ice fishing at night and helps draw the heat down from the top of the pop up tent.
