  • In this week's video, I hammock tent camp just a few minutes from the Potomac River and see the B&O Railroad for the very first time.
    A very special thank you to the wonderful rangers at Patapsco Valley State Park in Ellicott City, Maryland. This video is dedicated to my new friend, Sam. Thank you so much for watching ❤️
    Please note that my backup tent was non-freestanding, and I recommend a free-standing tent and a mallet. If you're able to visit, I'm sure you'll love it!

    Cool video. I grew up about 10 miles from this park and have visited it all of my life.

      Hi ZippyMufo, and welcome! That's amazing. Thanks for sharing that. I'll bet you have some beautiful memories of your time there. I've only been the one time, but I'll never forget it. Thank you so much for the comment 😃

    Yes- def check regs for hanging anything off trees 🌲 not allowed in national parks nor most state parks.

    When car camping I like to bring a bag of all my old bills and paperwork that I don't want to throw in the trash. When crumbled up and combined with collected dry leaves and sticks from the surroundings, of progressively small to large sizes, one can have an easy fire from a lighter alone. Decent fire in the end though. Keep it up Mandi. Only those who get out there and try, eventually master the art. :)

      Hi, Outdoor Existential! Your newest video is so neat! Haha, I love that idea of taking and burning old bills. I could see myself calling the power company and asking for a new bill because I "accidentally threw mine into a campfire" hahhahaa. Way better than "my dog ate my homework." You're so sweet. I have a few fun new things to try out next weekend when I give it another try :)

      @@Papagrande829 Hi, and it's my pleasure. It's so nice to chat with you. I hope I make more videos of camping in MD, too haha. I do wish that the camping weather/season was much longer, but that's so great that you are brave enough to get out there in the winter. I hope you have an amazing time at Little Bennett, and I'll be looking forward to hearing all about. I hope you have the best day!
