    I found probably the best urban stealth camping spot so far. An industrial business park with warehouses and corporate offices. They have a wooded park area (which is a city park) right in between all the businesses. I set up the new 4 season Hennessy Hammock, and it performed incredibly! I will get a more thorough review on the hammock with the next stealth camping trip.

      I never thought of this channel like that… but yes… I can relate… childhood fantasies! Imagination! Unfortunately now, camping in the city green spaces has turned less “glamorous” or “fantastical”, or even, to be honest “stealthy”, in our city, because of the homeless camps that have taken over our public natural areas… bringing with them tons and tons of trash and abandoned cars, and sometimes accidental out of control fires.
      So i do appreciate your videos, Steve, because of the stealthiness of those stealth camping videos, and because you respect the land that you camp on!

    Seeing your tarp in the distance with the big light on inside reminds me of my cousin Steve's adventure. When he was 13 a friend of his had an Army surplus parachute, the old round kind made from white and orange nylon panels. Steve and several friends went camping on a hilltop on the edge of town and used the parachute as a tent, with a Coleman lantern hanging inside.
    About 11:30 that night they heard something moving in the trees outside, and when they looked out they saw a police officer approaching the tent with his gun drawn. Turns out an old lady at the boittom of the hill had called the police to report a flying saucer had landed on the hill. The Chief and one of his officers responded, and the Chief ordered the officer to go investigate while he maintained a secure position at the bottom of the hill.

    Along with your white tarp, an extra dark tarp just a little longer under the white one to close would give you a "black out effect" at night. You could close off the ends to where you would still have ventilation for the burner and any condensation issues. A plus, which you know, is the extra warmth that is trapped somewhat. Unless someone is bored and just looking around or they are actually looking for trespassers, you would be good even with the white light glow. It would probably be mistaken for a light thru the woods on the other side. Now the thermals from the police helicopter might be a problem with the burner.
