Love is important. friends of course and one or two good beers as well. But also a kind of portable light to find the right tree in the night outside...😊. Anyway: You guys are FANTASTIC. Thanx for the Inspiration and the good spirit. Yours Dirk from Cologne/Germany

  • @haskyb9184

    Decent footwear, guys. Prob not such an issue where you guys are camping in an arid climate, but here in England, if your feet get wet or your shoes rub, it makes wild camping a misery.
    Nice little video 👍🏻

  • @austinswallow

    Love the s**t demonstration! Number 1 item to take on camping, is a "to do", especially if travelling solo, tell someone were you are going and when you expect to get back, otherwise it could be that film "127 Hours" all over again! Great video & camera work as usual, well done!

    Good video. I love camping with my friends here in Alabama. I'd say you could fit a good heater. I have a coleman propane flameless tent heater that's safe for indoor use. Heats up my poptop bus really good.
