I'm with you on all the items except the candle lantern. I carried one for years but it's much easier to just have an electric light of some kind - LED, headlamp, hanging light, whatever. I just want light, I don't care about how "wonderful warm, flickering, alive" it is but if that matters to you by all means use a candle lantern. I've used a similar hand chainsaw for a number of years now, it's cut an untold number of fallen (small) trees, it takes some work on trees bigger than 6-8" circumference. The camping chair is a must have in my opinion. I prefer to run my water through a water purifier but I need a new one as the MSR Sweetwater was discontinued and I have almost used up my stock of filters.
I certainly use leds too, but being a photographer, I notice the quality of light. Please subscribe if you haven’t and keep watching, I’ll keep posting!
I admit, jealous of the blower. I have been using the bag that came with the mattress. I will give the candle consideration. I normally car camp and tote a hurricane lamp and / or LED. The possibility of spilled fuel and smaller size of the candle makes the candle very tempting. I camp in Ks., and there isn’t any water I would drink without using special filters first. I bring filtered water from my residence. I camp so i can escape the city. I bring a few luxuries like a comfortable chair and bed. Just so you know, I'm another fan of your videos.
I camped a couple nights in Kansas last summer... one night there was a tornado and winds that nearly took me away with my tent! Yeah, I would only use the steripen on running water like mountain streams. For lakes and such, I will fill bottles on my last stop of the evening in case there isn't a spigot where I'm staying. So glad you like my videos!!! Keep watching and I'll keep posting!
Great video. Nice looking bike in the background 🙌🏽🤘🏽
