  • When i first saw this tent, I had to get it. I took it out for a solo overnighter, some camp fire cooking and a Thunder Storm, How did we do?

    So relaxing to watch. I grew up raised by a single mom. We almost no money for extra anything. Camping is how we spent vacations. Tent camping, just me and my mom and my little dog in the primitive area of state park campgrounds. The wonder of an 11 year old from the hot and humid south, waking up to find snow covering our tent in the mountains, or a campfire to enjoy in the evening. Great childhood memories. And as a mental health nurse with many other life stressors, this is a welcome, calming reprieve. From the lovely areas, the different tents and gear I don’t have to purchase/store, watching the campfire and cooking, and your very soothing manner and calming voice, I enjoy every bit of the videos. Except that they end! Thank you for sharing.

    Andy, you're a lovely man. You've been able to reach out and connect with just a 🤏 under 700,000 other people, and that's just counting those who are subscribers, so you connect with millions I'm sure. You've become a friend to many of us, even though we're from all around the world, I myself am watching from the beautiful province of Manitoba, located on the Great Canadian Prairie( Springtime snake orgy anyone?). I'm often housebound due to poor health, or the weather, so watching you out in the woodlands, chopping wood, cooking and eating yummy food, and sleeping in the freah air, is a great deal of fun for me, and as close to going camping as I will ever get to experience again in this lifetime. Thank-you Andy, you're a peach! ✌️& 🫶 from 🇨🇦

    That cot is wonderful. No attaching legs for days. This is a proper camp. I feel better when you don't work so hard. My husband says campers spend hundreds of dollars to live like a homeless person for a night or two. This camp is not like that at all. You deserve a little comfort. Although, if you eat 2 slabs of ribs and drink 12 beers, you won't care whether you are at camp or the Ritz. Wish I was there!

      Drinking beer and eating food you cooked on a fire is it's own special thing. And when it's done, sleeping in a tent is some of the most restful sleep i have ever had. Can't do it anymore, but i do miss it from time to time.
      Have to satisfy myself with simply drinking the 12 beers and calling it a night! ^-^

      Nice camp after the last one... like the way the cot set up...I have also liked the multiple leg one... but I sleep well in my folding recliner...your firepit has been doing well... I will still stick with my Solo Stoves Ranger with accessories... almost did a firepit cook out today, but I had 36 foot planter project rebuild to work on today. Just a little too tired to griddle hot dogs or the chicken I have lined up for firepiting the Lodge griddle on the cooking riser for the firepit... I have some other cast iron to test on that riser... Lodge has some interesting frying pans that if you buy 2, one can serve as a lid for the other.

    Even as female the filming of your truck and driving into the camps and out I enjoy, it's part of me feeling like I there. The whole experience.
    You are a expert in your craft and filming. Your personality is relatable and genuine. I get sad when the videos are over lol , because I enjoy them all so much ❤😊 I don't want them to end😁

      Andy always greets his viewers with a nice smile and he seems happy . I feel depressed watching Mark and have to switch to another channel. There's another guy in Canada who ALWAYS ALWAYS goes on about the temperature and has some gadget he always puts outside to gauge how cold it is. Some outdoor vlogs are annoying but Andrews is uplifting. A friend is looking to buy a secondhand lightweight 1 man tent for hiking in Scotland so I recommended the 1 Andy used ( £49) and he watched the video and subscribed. I think he's hooked. He didn't know about outdoor camping vlogs. 😄 Thanks Andy.

    I have the same tent...great build but weak on heavy rain. Surface waterproofing is good, but when heavy rain pouring out. Mass amount of water drop directly near the tent edges makes a large pool of water below and slowly absorbed inside. Recommended to have 1 flysheet to divert the water flow a bit far so the water got plenty time absorbed to the ground

We had an awesome thunderstorm this morning, looks like I don't have to water my outdoor plants. Those ribs look tasty!
