Cooking Over a Campfire - Overnight Camping Trip
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- I spend the night in the cold solitude of Alberta's northern wilderness in Canada.
I locate my camp in a thick spruce and pine forest to offer protection against distant winds. I spend my time at this camp relaxing and cooking some fantastic meals.
The night was calm and cool with clear skies. The stars and moon provided plenty of light which allowed me to maintain my fire throughout the night. Under my two wool blankets I stayed pleasantly warm and was able to get a well needed night of sleep.
In the morning I cooked up a hearty bacon, egg, and hashbrown dish I call the bushman pancake.
After ensuring my fire was fully extinguished, I packed up my gear and did my best to return the campsite back to the way I found it. Within a week, after a few snowfalls, there will be little evidence I was ever there.

Alberta, Canada

Yes. This area is home to grizzly bears, black bears, mountain lions, wolves, and coyotes.

In the warmer months of the year I usually carry bear spray, but in these colder temperatures the spray would freeze. During all of my winter and cold weather trips I do not carry any protection.

No. Wild animals are usually very timid towards humans and tend to leave us alone.
What is the sheet I laid on the ground to sleep on?
A gum blanket. It is a canvas sheet that is rubberized on one side to act as a moisture barrier between myself and the ground.
What did my bedroll include?
Two 100% queen size wool blankets (brand unknown), and a foam sleep pad (for insulation between me and the ground).

No. I layered my clothing (wore 4 layers over my upper body, and three layers on my legs), wore warm boots (Sorel 1964 CVS), and kept my fire well stoked.
How did my fire stay going all night?
I woke up 3 times throughout the night to add more wood to the fire.
What Knife was I using?
Helle Sigmund
What hatchet am I using?
A small woods hatchet I purchased from an antique store for 8$. Brand is unknown.

Homemade wax cloth tarp. Measures 6' x 6'. I will be making a bigger and stronger one soon and I will make a video on the sewing and waxing process.
What cook kit do I use?
The cooking set I use is the Woods Nootka Cook Set.
The frying pan used for my breakfast is an 8" De Buyer carbon steel pan.

After a stresfull day this is great to watch
Absolutely
I watch a lot of the bushcraft/outdoor channels and they are all good for their own reasons. Your videos definitely have the most peaceful, simplistic (in a good way), calming qualities to them. Keep up the good work!
Man, I love how you are sleeping under a literal piece of plastic in the middle of the woods, and are still making better meals than most people at home in their kitchens.
He doesn’t mess around!
My favorite cooking show on RUclips!
It's 11.30 pm and my mouth is watering watching you cook up those bushcraft meals really enjoyable watching thanks.
That has to be the best meals I've ever seen in the woods!
Lol you’re a better cook out in the elements with bare essentials than I am in my own at home kitchen with everything I need! Good stuff man!! Keep up the vids and all the cooking you do!!! Definitely mouth watering !
Same
@@peterpoop I'm eating at my home and still mouth watered. 2:32 AM. Shit I hate this guy.
Love the way you cooked the egg with bacon for wall support.
Brings whole new meaning to "going out to eat." 😁
Outstanding adventure, beautiful location. Sure wish we had that snow.
My guy made nuggets and fries in the woods
and he brought the sauce this time
Tenders and fries :)
@Jonathan Gonzalez lmaoo never thought i'd see a fellow trippie fan here. thanks for the laugh

Nice to see you out again have been waiting. Looks like a very nice time. Thanks for great content. Keep it up
It was good to be out again.
Thanks so much for watching, take care!
Have you ever been on an outing and the conditions go so bad you thought you were in over your head?
master chef
Yes! Love campfire cooking:)
Aaah bacon, egg and potato cake looked amazing my friend. Huge respect for you and what you do from the UK 👍
I was about to call bull that 2 blankets kept you warm, because the ground will freeze you to death, but then I read in description that you had a foam pad, and that makes a world of difference. P.S those meet rolls with the peppers look tasty!
Yup, the foam sleep pad makes a huge difference. In these cold temperatures it's necessary to have an insulating layer.
Thanks for watching, take care.
I like ur very detailed description dude. Keep up!.Imma sub to you.
Omg the last dish 🤤
I have a full kitchen and all of that looked better than what i made for dinner...haha, love the videos man

Loved the desert you made.
So if you quit camping you can do cooking videos good video
Thanks to share this awesome event :)
I was very curious about the dessert, I would like to try it but could you please write more detail about dessert? How did you make the ice cream from snow? Which materials did you add in which steps? Thanks.
The dessert is pretty simple to make.
Crustless apple pie:
Cut an apple in half and make a bunch of slices through the skin (about 3/4 of the way towards the core.)
Place on a buttered baking tray (or in my case, a makeshift "oven").
Pour melted butter over the apple then top off with sugar.
Let bake for approximately 20 minutes.
While it bakes mix 2 tbsp of oats with 1 tsp of cinnamon, then add 2 tbsp of melted butter and mix.
Remove the apple from the oven and add the cinnamon oat topping.
Let bake for another 10 minutes, then serve while still hot.
Vanilla Snow Icecream:
Fill a mixing bowl with 2 cups of fluffy snow
Add 2 tbsp of powdered milk, 1 tbsp brown sugar, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
Continue stirring until creamy.
