Dude goes into the forest with a bright orange bag on his bike, talks loud frequently, starts a fire and shines bright lights around in the dark...... for a stealth camp. I love it.
This was a such a great video. Like our old friend Drizzy says, it went from 0 to 100 real quick. That storm was nuts for a bit! Nothing like falling asleep to the soothing sound of rain hitting the tarp.
This was so good. Mediocre forest temperature McDonald’s, and channeling of Jim Cantore during a thunderstorm. Definitely one of your best. I wish I had public land as close. I live in a very wooded area but it’s all private land. Very enjoyable video Kevin. Thanks.
Thanks, joe! Yeah there's a lot of land around that's owned by the city/ state / town, whatever. If I can help it, I stay on those places. I think once I made a video on land that was owned by an adjacent college, but usually its public. Camping still frowned upon, but at least big jerry with a rifle won't come knocking at my door!
Super cool channel Kev! Stumbled here after looking into the abandoned "Spirit of Rochester" ship. I love watching exploration videos. Didn't even think to look into local explorers here in Rochester. Thank you for sharing your adventures! You've got a new fan from Fairport 😁 Stay safe....there's a lot of Hoodlums out there!!
Just noticed your shirt The Outdoors Me Gee? Future Kevin cracked me up, that and the duct tape repair job. Kevin, your the man, thanks for a great video as usual. And dammit, wear a hat when out in the sun.
Haha yeah i definitely need a new hat. And yeah, the outdoors megee it is! This shirt is like a year old, basically fell apart as soon as I washed it haha.
I found the woods you are in on G maps that looks like a very nice size woods and love that your on bike. That is how I get around Denver for everything or the bus or train if need be. I would camp here but many homeless in city. Maybe in the foothills I can? Your videos are so great!
Nice one Kevin, the best video so far if you ask me. Location is epic, next to that Water tower, all around a "good vibe" location. Greatings from Serbia :)
This and your most recent airport video showcased two pretty cool sets of woods. I don't see that type of wooded area where I'm from. Thanks for sharing!
I’ve just started watching your vids. I enjoy your scenarios and wry humor. I’m just a boring old retired lady who likes to watch camping and canoeing adventures. I live in Lake Orion, MI. There are so many cool places around here where one could stealth camp. One of these days I’m gonna spring for a tent. 🤣 Maybe I could knit one in my rocking char. LOL
The equipment noise could be the skidder type machine that goes up-and-down the power lines. I definitely want to see what you come up with for a shelter.
Aww Kev sorry to see the rain, I usually take my bike on my trips, it's a little bit easier as it's an ebike. Ok about to settle in. I will comment after full video.
Back in the 60's when I lived in a small town we had a park where the water tower was. Some people came through and pitched a tent under the water tower. The next morning everything they had was soaked and they thought it had poured rain all night. What happened was sometimes the water tower would run over.
Bike, check! Sunburn, check! Sunburn scratching brush, check! Boggy trails, check! Beverage centre, check! Tarp and hammock, check! Kevin’s at it again people 🤣 🤟 Love your shenanigans man.
I have a car, but I've not taken it stealth camping yet. There's a fabulous bike trail system here in Rochester, all of my stealth camps by bike so far have been a 20-30 min ride
Watching from Malaysia🇲🇾.Nice camp in the woods although it looked a bit of a scary location with lots of downed trees and potential widowmakers. You survived the night and I look forward to watching your next adventure. Take care and stay safe brother 🏕
18:17 Yes! Tree frog 🐸 These little guys are the cutest little things ever, with their tiny little suction-cup "fingers", I'll have like 3 or 4 that'll climb my balcony & hang on sliding glass door & that sound they make can get overwhelming after about a minute, & we end up going into our bedroom for awhile until they stop 😂
Hello Kevin, I love riding in mud an rain wouldn't stop me I just love riding anytime really, just started watching really enjoyed it, new subscriber here best wishes.
Definitely make a shelter with that fallen tree. That would be cool. I don't see a lot of good leaves to keep the rain out, though, but you could always bring a tarp to put over it in case you can't find good leaves and stuff.
I mean, there are a lot of leaves there and that would work if you put tons of them on top, but it sure is a lot easier if you can find large, green leaves. Then you know the rain is staying out.
True story. I drifted off to sleep while watching this video and woke up vividly remembering my dream. I walked into a courtroom. Amber Heard gave me side eye and shortly after, Johnny Dep didn't show up for his deposition so the judge argued the legalities of stealth camping with the audience. My dreams are rarely this topical so I felt neccessary to share. Thanks Kev!
i find the whole jd thing confusing, they were married 2015, divorced 2016 and she has completely moved on, lives with her lover, has a child perhaps jd should "Let it go!" as the song says
Hay big lad ..... it's good to see you back 👍 i found your channel by chance then you disappeared from my feed 🥴 an today you popped back up which is nice ..... now i shall subscribe so i can keep up ..... love what you do sir ..... I'm a Scottish guy living in Germany ..... and spent a few years living on my bicycle .... in a tent .... i dont have the natural flow you have to camera so it's pretty cool to watch your adventures ..... keep on keeping on ma friend..... thanks for all your efforts 👍👊
@@smallplots nah man Thank you 🙏👊 if you go onto my channel you can see my poor attempt lol recently cycled over to th uk did a wee tour then back to Germany !!! Once again thanks sir ... an oh iye the beard suits you well 👍👊
That roll of duct tape...at first I thought it was ummm something else haha. Nice video. Just watch out for those dry tree widowmakers...heavy winds and a dry forest...cheers man
1) Wish you would post brands of the items you use: I am looking for a tarp with lots of tyedown holes. Your chair is interesting also. 2) how do you know your aren't in a wash?
The reason I don't really go over my gear anymore is I spent several videos doing it, and I haven't really changed gear much, so I stopped mentioning it so it didn't get stale. My tarp is a Gold Armour, I have the 10x12, but here's the 10x10 (www.amazon.com/Gold-Armour-Rainfly-Tarp-Hammock/dp/B088DLKFXC). My chair is from REI and they don't actually make this exact version anymore, but they have newer, updated (in my opinion, not as good) models on their site/ at their stores.
That was a cool one, l always learn something watching you brother. Nobody can fill airtime with as colorful commentary as you do. 😄 I watch and like all your stuff but will forget to comment 🤷🏾♂️ I'm gona do better LMAOOOOO 😄 ...🤌🏾🤌🏾🤙🏾
Don't forget to put all your links on you to Description Kev, I'm still looking for some. I'm sure I will find them on previous ones but that's the way to grow.
I always love figuring out where you are. That water tower gave it away I had to Google Map it to figure out how you got in there. I have a thought. Once again great video.
Sweet episode. I am trying to have some sympathy about your sunburn but when I look out my window and still dealing with snow storms I'd trade ya. Take care of that Smalls and look forward till we meet again . Take care and be safe my friend.
It’s always those self righteous birds making their gloating racket in the woods without remorse at all hours of the night. Another great video in the books.
I know that I have already sent you a message but I had to watch the video again, because I enjoy watching your videos. I can't wait to see your next video. Isn't it bad news that Steve Wallis's wife has died, I really feel for him. Hope you are well and that you're having a good time today and I hope to see more of your videos you're awesome my friend. John from Sheffield England Great Britain
I loved the "future Kevin" cut in! That is great and so creative.
Dude goes into the forest with a bright orange bag on his bike, talks loud frequently, starts a fire and shines bright lights around in the dark...... for a stealth camp. I love it.
I'm the wind
This was a such a great video. Like our old friend Drizzy says, it went from 0 to 100 real quick. That storm was nuts for a bit! Nothing like falling asleep to the soothing sound of rain hitting the tarp.
Thanks man! Hearing rain is the best when falling asleep... the birds all night were annoying though haha
Glad you survived the monsoon. I love the sound of rain on a tent.
Your sense of humor keeps me watching every video. Never change!
whats with the last part [of ur vid] shows a guy looks like he's from India sleeping in a bed??? WTF?? .... STRANGE....
Kevin has me smiling throughout his whole videos. Thanks so much bro for the content you create for our enjoyment.
Thanks nah!
Might want to get your 🚲 out of the rain if u can ?
Kevin is super. His running commentary is so funny.
Can't wait to watch this, I'm currently at the emergency room with my 2 year old son, this video is gonna cheer us both up!
Oh no, hope all is well, farting!
Loved the music while setting up your tarp. Nice place to camp ⛺️ secluded . I love it when we camp and it rains.
I feel like you are quickly getting your own "voice" and style in these videos.
Really dig them!
Super cozy viewing.
Thanks, S!
This was so good. Mediocre forest temperature McDonald’s, and channeling of Jim Cantore during a thunderstorm. Definitely one of your best. I wish I had public land as close. I live in a very wooded area but it’s all private land. Very enjoyable video Kevin. Thanks.

That Forest Park reminds me of the The Lost Forest on THE LAND OF THE LOST on the Saturday morning cartoons back in 1974 and 1975.
Nice for you to mention Mr. Steve Wallis the OG of stealth camping! I'll be watching more of you now
Just noticed your shirt The Outdoors Me Gee?
Future Kevin cracked me up, that and the duct tape repair job. Kevin, your the man, thanks for a great video as usual. And dammit, wear a hat when out in the sun.
Haha yeah i definitely need a new hat. And yeah, the outdoors megee it is! This shirt is like a year old, basically fell apart as soon as I washed it haha.
@@smallplots Well it definitely looks loved.
Oh my my. Be careful Kevin dude. Enjoy your camping trip man. Love the heavy heavenly downpour.
Re-run Saturday 5/21/2022! 😀
I am not much a literal LOL type person but damn, FUTURE KEVIN made my day. More Future Kevin, please!!!😂😂😂

New fan here. 👋 loving your adventures. It's like I ordered Steve Wallis stealth camping from WISH 😂❤😊
Love the POV shots.
What a beautiful region you live in! I think I'm going to buy a small plot around Rochester 😊
Loved this rainy stealth camping.
Yeah, Rochester is beautiful in seasons that aren't winter! Better hurry up, land is going fast these days!
Natural comedian. Love ❤️ the videos!
Love it.. subbed.. That's a good spot!
Funny guy alert!
absolutely love your shirt! This is great! Really enjoyed it. I love camping !
Nice one Kevin, the best video so far if you ask me. Location is epic, next to that Water tower, all around a "good vibe" location. Greatings from Serbia :)

Thanks for watching, Ryan!
Awesome as always. 😊 😃
You are a riot 🤣 😂 😆 😜 hehehe 😜
Oh you have the exact same mirror on your bike that I do! Super useful!
Haha mine is like 20 years old and barely stays in place anymore
Jolly Good Spot! Cheers from the South Carolina Lowcountry!
Great video Kevin. Watching from Halifax, NS

WOAH YEAHHH! New Small Plots Video from Kevin, & I'm (also) Kevin... 😆
Awesome! Ty for sharing! x
Awesome video as expected! what's the song at 33:13?
Thanks, Shaun! The song is called Grace Part 1 by Ankori & Ramon.
@@smallplots Awesome thanks man
just outstanding. sunburnt gold.
C R I S P Y
You definitely got rid of my bad mood and made me laugh
Oh yeah. Wet&wild. Good toughing it out. Plenty of fir wood in there, wow.
...fire
Yes. Seems like a good idea to come back to that fallen tree another time and go bushcraft mode on it.
There are other UA-cam campers but you are certainly the most entertaining. Great work!
Thanks, Pete! Stay Slippery!
This is great stuff dude!!
Thanks, ultralight!
The equipment noise could be the skidder type machine that goes up-and-down the power lines. I definitely want to see what you come up with for a shelter.
Could be! Tons of power lines in the area
Aww Kev sorry to see the rain, I usually take my bike on my trips, it's a little bit easier as it's an ebike. Ok about to settle in. I will comment after full video.
Kevin, your videos are unique - keep them that way. I would like to see you cook a dinner, stumble through it. lol
I cook steak or hotdogs sometimes, but it's a pain in the butt to bring out a ton of ingredients in my 25 L bag. I gotta have room for beer!
Just noticed your Outdoors Magee shirt!!!I love that guy!!!you 2 should calab
Luv your musick bro, more bushwackies should do the sane on utube nice touch!
I just started to watching your videos. I think there pretty cool
Thanks Rhonda!
45:29 Kevin is (at least) 4 Claws deep at this point…yes, I skipped ahead.
Haha i think I actually am

The next morning everything they had was soaked and they thought it had poured rain all night. What happened was sometimes the water tower would run over.
Cobbs hill park.used to play and Snow Sledding.theres lots of trails in Cobbs Hill.And Lots Of Trees
Bike, check! Sunburn, check! Sunburn scratching brush, check! Boggy trails, check! Beverage centre, check! Tarp and hammock, check! Kevin’s at it again people 🤣 🤟 Love your shenanigans man.
Haha thanks samir! I try to tick all the boxes
Going through the back catalog, still great stuff.
Much appreciated!
Love it when the music kicks in🤣🤣👍
You need to come to Missouri, plenty of places to stealth
Kevin. Do you just ride bikes or do you have a truck or car for riding around it my brotherly friend
I have a car, but I've not taken it stealth camping yet. There's a fabulous bike trail system here in Rochester, all of my stealth camps by bike so far have been a 20-30 min ride
Woooooo to the top!
Too top to plop!
When rains abate
nocturnal cacophonies
in urban woodlands
inharmoniously plunder
tranquil slumber
ah - the joys of bivouac
Beautiful, Bagarius, you always know just what to say
Watching from Malaysia🇲🇾.Nice camp in the woods although it looked a bit of a scary location with lots of downed trees and potential widowmakers. You survived the night and I look forward to watching your next adventure. Take care and stay safe brother 🏕
Hunker down! Camping with Kevin!

Hello Kevin, I love riding in mud an rain wouldn't stop me I just love riding anytime really, just started watching really enjoyed it, new subscriber here best wishes.
Lol, nice Dark Cloud reference!
You got sun burned so bad man! Another great video from small plots. Keep them coming 👍
Thanks a ton!
"A good thing I have quick drying pants"
Definitely make a shelter with that fallen tree. That would be cool. I don't see a lot of good leaves to keep the rain out, though, but you could always bring a tarp to put over it in case you can't find good leaves and stuff.

Kevin, This was fun but…OMG 😳 What the heck was that banging noise????
Beavers? Bigfoot?
Great video. Nice spot. I have a 10X10 tarp by the same company. I hope mine doesn't leak. Good to see you survived.
It may not be the only type in your area but apple trees have lots of small dead points on its branches like that. you might be in an old orchard.
Interesting to learn! I didn't see any apples around, but it's definitely possible it's an old non-productive tree
That was a cool one, l always learn something watching you brother. Nobody can fill airtime with as colorful commentary as you do. 😄 I watch and like all your stuff but will forget to comment 🤷🏾♂️ I'm gona do better LMAOOOOO 😄 ...🤌🏾🤌🏾🤙🏾

Thanks, Michael!
My pleasure

What park is this?
😶🌫️
Watching another one! Godbless ,have a great day!
😮 maybe use a tent next time so you can stay dry and just relax falling asleep to the rain ☔
Song at 33:13 ?
ok thanks!
Sweet episode. I am trying to have some sympathy about your sunburn but when I look out my window and still dealing with snow storms I'd trade ya. Take care of that Smalls and look forward till we meet again . Take care and be safe my friend.
Haha fair enough 😅
Can you show us more footage of this sweet backpack in your next video?!
Sure if I Remember!
really good saxaphone music...very mellow.....nice....mooore!

Sunday night ?? I live in buffalo that storm came in hard
Monday night actually! It was nuts
I liked the music in this one.
Is that a Silkey Saw?
Silkey and milky
Nothing worse than getting scraped by branches on a sunburn...well accept the first hot shower lmfao! Excellent video as usual my friend
It was brutal!
Thank you for not having commercials
I definitely have commercials, looks like you lucked out!
You really got a sense of urgency cuz Kevin drank his beer faster.
It's the true test of urgency
Great video thank you
