  • Just a little rainy camping trip in the woods of a new neighborhood under construction. I used the hammock again on this trip because it was the best shelter for the situation. Sloping ground, lots of good trees, and lots of rain. Camping in hammocks is always my choice when there will be lots of rain.

    I can't tell you how much I've thought about the passing of a woman I never even laid eyes on over the last couple of days. I could see the emotion and getting choked up at the end of this video which said to me that things at that time were not looking good, and it sounded like you didn't want to go on the road, but I can almost bet money your beautiful wife was telling you to go ahead and go. Your genuineness as a human being has always shined through on the screen and in your interactions with your subscribers online. I don't think think I've ever watched anyone on CZcams whose emotions just came through the screen to me when you had to make a video you hoped you'd never have to make.

    That animal sound was from a doe alerting others of ur prescence. We have 3 doe in our woods that travel together and the 1 in front will snort like this when she is ready to move on from an area. It's quite an alarming sound, especially if you don't know what is making it! Anyway, great video the beast burger looked delicious too lol

    That was a whitetail deer making that sneezing sound. It busted you, it smelled you down wind and that sound was the deer forcing air out of its nose as a warning to other deer that " I smell something bad, don't come over here" they also stomp one hoof when they do that. It's a warning to other deer. It can sound so strange if you've never heard it before. Awesome video Steve

      Years ago my Scoutmaster was deer hunting and had a doe make that noise right behind him. He was lying prone above a small ravine with a game trail along the bottom of it. When the doe made that noise it startled him and he knocked his shotgun down into the ravine. He rolled over and was face to face with the doe for a few seconds, then it turned and ran off.

    @user-jn9km6qd7g Před rokem +3

    The sound you were hearing around 12:15 seems like it was most likely a deer "blowing" at you. They forcefully exhale to make that noise. They generally do that when they are unsure of what they are sensing. Deer do that in hopes that you will move around so that they can get a better idea of what you are. Does tend to do it more than bucks. They tend to continue blowing as they prance away from you.
    You were in no danger. The noise can certainly be a bit startling whenever it's completely quiet and suddenly there's a loud noise.

    I’m going to relate something I don’t often talk about, but since watching your videos, I find myself thinking about often. In younger days I had a desire to go on, what Paul Hogan in Crocodile Dundee called a “Walk-about”. Much to my regret and for various reasons I did not. Now that I’ve gotten old and have multiple health issues, my “Walk-about” days are over. But that doesn’t stop me from traveling down the road and assessing little snippets of cover for their camping potential.
    Since I’ve been binge watching your videos, my desire to do a bit of stealth camping has increased. I am vicariously living this life through you. I enjoy your adventures, along with “Crazy Neighbor” who is a hoot. Even though we never see Beautiful Wife, the few trips she has made with you, I can hear her in the background.

    This video reminded me of a family camping trip as a kid. My parents and siblings were sleeping in the camper I liked to sleep outside so I was in a hammock it was a nylon net hammock. There was a threat of rain so I had clear plastic as a rain fly. A massive thunderstorm rolled thru in the middle of the night. Not much rain or wind but I awoke to heart stopping booms and an impressive light show dancing across the sky. It lasted a couple of hours. As it was dying off the realization that I was tied to 2 100ft ponderosa pine trees sent a chill down my spine. That was one of the best storms I camped in. Some of my favorite camping trips have been in a hammock.

You’re human, like me, like us. Everywhere is wilderness, literally the-will-of-the-place. I don’t know you because we’ve never met, but I do know you in a sense because we’re similar: just trying to figure out our own place in the wilderness.
