Join me and my oldest grandson Tristen as we go on our first Hammock Camping adventure. Tristen lives in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, so we don't get to camp very often, so this was a very special time for both of us! Enjoy!
Hiking the Grubb Ridge Trail

Dave and I set out to do a 5 mile backpacking trip to Lake Monroe in the Charles Deam Wilderness in southern Indiana. But between an extremely muddy trail that caused some falls, me forgetting my blood pressure meds, and still not being in great shape after my quad bypass surgery, we changed plans and camped at a site along the way. We still had a great time, used some new equipment, and just e...

Testing My StoveHut 70 while Camping with Some Friends
Просмотров 1732 года назад
Enjoyed an overnight with several friends while doing more testing on my StoveHut 70 from Pomoly. A nice cold night with about 3/4 inch of rain was a good workout. No apparent leaks, and the Hut averaged 70-75 degrees F. Good fellowship with good friends and a great campfire...it doesn't get much better than this! Enjoy!

Very nice Fred! John was a great guy for sure and I had the pleasure of meeting up with him on a couple of occasions. I and few others have also made tribute videos of him as well. Have a great day.
Thanks Jim! Have a wonderful holiday.😎😎
Hi Sloth Hiker! So nice that you could go home for the holidays! Fun to see the woods there and where you got married. ❤️ 😄
Thanks Jennifer. Going home is always fun! Have a great holiday!
You too! 😄🎄🎁@@freddonelson5505
Hi Fred- wonderful tribute to John! Great to hear how you met him, I mostly knew him online too. Loved the photos of him and the music too. He brought a lot to the YT community, and we’ll miss him for sure! Sorry I hadn’t met you before… but I’m happy to meet you now! - 👌😊- Jen
Thanks Jen. ❤️❤️
He will be missed rip
Good to hear from you. Glad to see your getting out and doing well. God bless and thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Merry Christmas!😎😎
Fred always enjoy your videos. May God bless you.
Thanks for watching
Thanks for bringing us along on the hike!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!!😎😎
How about having one reflective tarp under the hammock and another one under your sleeping mattress or sleeping bag??
Sometimes you get condensation if you have a quilt right underneath you. It helps if there is some space to allow moisture to escape.
It's great to see the adventures of another senior hiker. I have joined your channel and hope you will return the favor. Happy hiking to you!😀
Thank you ! Fred, this' help~
I know this was a long time ago but what guy line did you use? Was it regular paracord or dyneema? Also what thickness was it? Peace
Just got a Paria Zion tent and was unfamiliar with this style of lock. Thank you for your clear explanation!
Glad iit helped!😎😎
Could of majorly lived without seeing them toes.
🤣🤣
Thank you!!
You are welcome!
I just turn 50 this year and have type 2 diabetes. I thought I've done enough research, but you've hit some points that never occurred to me. Much appreciated!!
Beautiful thanks for sharing 👍 Like 12
It was a fun afternoon!!
Thanks Fred and Dave for sharing this video. Boy, the site 10 looks good. Sure hope they open it soon. Be sure to contact Chad the Mohican Forest Manager and ask him nicely to open the sites up, we're ready and the sites are too. 😀
We will!
We will!
Good to see you
You too! Hope you enjoyed the "quick trip"!!😎😎
I'm guessing this is in Ohio? Looks like a nice area.
Yep ... Near Loudonville. Beautiful area.
Mohican is a wonderful place to spend some time. There is a lot to do there.
Yep! Hoping the Park and Pack trails are open soon so we can backpack there again!
Looks like a very warm set up!
It was! 79F at one point in the tent!! Glamping for sure!
Very cool set up Fred!! Good to see you out and about!
Thanks for the video!
You bet! I'm hoping to go camping with Dave during weekdays so you can join us if available. I will let you know!
Hello Fred, great test for your gear.
Thanks John for the feedback! I got the last one as well but am behind on answering! I really like this hammock hot tent!
Hello Fred, you got a nice set up there. Did you bring the Buddy Heater to run thru the night so you wouldn’t have to wake up every hour to put wood in the stove?
No ... just used my electric heater since we had electricity. I always let my stove burn out once I go to bed.
Great video Fred! Nice winter setup.
Thanks for the feedback!! It worked pretty well!
My "hot tent" setup is a $110 Walmart Instant Tent & electric heater! A Mr. Buddy heater if not an electric site. Nice job!
I actually used my Mr. Buddy the last morning so my stove and stack were cool enough to pack right away. I kept me toasty as I tore down.😎😎
Very nice set up Fred.
Thanks John!
Was this in the primitive area near the covered bridge?
This was at Mount Gilead State Park.
Billy Joel camping tips !
Looks like fun ! I liked seeing the different stove setups
We had two home made stoves as well as my Pomoly. I'm hoping to do a video just on the stoves later in January or early February.
Looks like a great time. Cant wait to hang out with everyone.
The big hot tent makes it much easier to hang out, even if it's raining or snowing. I will keep you and Willie in the loop!
Nice time at camp with friends
Maybe we can get you down for a nite in January!
@@freddonelson5505 let me know and I will try and make it.
@@unpavedexplorer338 John ... Dave and I are planning to camp at Mount Gilead Jan 6-7 Fri-Sun. Would love to have you join us. I plan on having a large hot tent where we can eat and chill, providing it all gets delivered on time!! Just let me know if/when you can come. I will probably get there by 1 on Friday to start getting things set up.
Hello Fred, unfortunately I will not be able to make it. Hopefully next time. Thanks for the invite.
@@unpavedexplorer338 So sorry. We will keep trying!
Great video Fred! You are a class act.
Happy thanksgiving
Back at ya Michael!

Very nice camp. Glad to see you out enjoying the fresh air.
Looks like you fellas had a good time
It was a great time to just kick back and relax!!
The fall colors were amazing. How did you like the hammock?
Loved it!!
Beautiful fall day for camping. Enjoy your 3rd retirement.
Thanks John!

Hey, this is a great idea! Did you have any condensation issues when using it?
I have not had condensation issues. People said I would, but I haven't.
@@freddonelson5505 ok thanks for the answer, I'm building a space uq too. And I'm thinking, even if there is condensation I would just have to lower the uq to let a little air flow under the hammock
@@freddonelson5505 plus, water vapor will go upward and not downward
