- Welcome to season 2 of Small Plots! Bask in it's glory.
In this episode I trudge through the upstate New York tundra in search of a Small Plot.
I'll be solo hammock camping, caveman cooking hotdogs directly on the coals, and relaxing next to a giant billboard.

You and Steve Wallis I think are the best stealth campers . I could watch your videos all day. Awesome videos my friend.
Thanks, randy!
Thank you for taking the time and effort and everything else it takes to make these videos, it's a lot of work I know!
I second that Sir, Big fan of your passion for camping, stealthily albeit. 🤪👍🏽
I have to say I think you're one the funniest (dare I say maddest?) guys I've ever encountered! You manage to make even the mundane entertaining. Thanks for great channel mate.
Well hey, thanks, David!
Man it was great to see you back in action! That’s hilarious I texted you on camera LMAO! Beard is looking great too man!
Thanks man! Haha yeah i wanted to keep it a surprise. And yeah I was gunna shave the beard after this episode, but the gf has grown attached to it
Great job baby!! I know why you were so tired 😘
Thanks boo 😘
Prickle brambles bring back memories of my childhood when 5 of us foster children went out into the woods behind the house to look for blackberries. We had our pails with us and were walking along merrily for about an hour when we finally saw a blackberry patch. We began running toward it when we saw the patch move and heard something large in the patch. We stopped and all of a sudden a huge black bear raised its head and looked at us over the blackberry patch... which made us freeze with fright since we could not have been more than 10 feet from the bear with the patch between us. The bear began to wriggle his nose as though he was smelling us while we were still frozen with fear. Then, all of a sudden, the bear went back down to all fours and slowly walked away. Needless to say, we all turned around and ran back home as fast as we could, without a single blackberry in our pails! The next morning, we all had a surprise. It seems that the bear smelled the smoke coming out of our smoke house where our foster partents had been smoking a ham. (If you don't know what that is, you build a safe fire inside the smokehouse in a container and hang a ham from the rafters over the smoke. The smoke exits the top of the smokehouse through a vent.) The morning after our black bear encounter we exited the back door of the house and found that there were large scratches at the latch area of the smokehouse and the door was slightly ajar. When we looked inside, the ham was gone. Obviously, the bear had been able to claw the latch open and go inside to steal the ham. As a foster child in several homes, you can imagine that my life was colorful growing up. I'm amazed that I'm alive today after all the escapades I've been through.
Awesome! Should hook up with Steve and do some stealth camping. That would be a blast!
Haha that would absolutely be amazing, but I think Steve is a little out of my league 😂
Great video! Kudos to you for braving this cold. It has been bitterly frigid in Rochester lately.
Even worse tonight!
I was growing impatient waiting for a new video so I'm watching this old one, the music in your video's
is perfect. looking forward to the next one.
New viewer from Canada. I'm used to watching Steve Wallis, our resident Stealth Camping King. Well done on the camp and vid.
Welcome, Raymond!
I got so excited after watching a few more of your videos and little did I know you were a local guy. Most I watch are mid West or Canadian or across the pond. But I'm just 15 minutes away from Rochester.. loving the content btw.. liked and shared!!
Awesome! Yeah Rochester is great for stealth camping, lots of hidden little areas around
Thanks for the episode and what you do to put a show together. You do enjoy it and that shows . One thing , take care of them knees. Cheers
Between the jazzy music and your nervous energy I would call it these are very mellow soothing videos the main reason I subscribed.
Woohoo, Small Plots with Kevin is back!!!!!
Love the video! Thanks for taking the time to answer some of our questions and giving me the honor of being the first one!! Your channel is great and I think you’re going to a huge channel soon.
Hey no problem! Thanks for the question!
Dude, your sense of humor is awesome. New subscriber.
Hey, thanks, Michael!
Good Stuff Kevin!
You always manage to crack me up somehow. Love your sense of humor and your sense of fun and adventure!
BICYCLE MY FOOT.....HE NEEDS A DOG SLED
Awesome as always Kevin

GOD BLESS YOU
🤗 HUGS 🤗
Great , as always. Thoroughly enjoyable!!
Thanks, Pete!
I really enjoy your adventures. Cheers.
Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺 😀
So nice to see the snow and artic conditions there.. ❄❄❄❄...
Currently in the high 80s -90s here atm 🔥🔥⛱☀️☀️🔥🔥..
Any relief from the heat is welcome, even if it's just a psychological one lol..
Love the videos etc
Until next time
Be well, warm and safe 😊🇦🇺🐨🦘
Thanks Mike!
1st! Happy to have you back!
Thanks, Woodsman! Good to be back
Just found your channel, super glad I did!! Awesome video Kevin, winter camping is not easy but you’ve made it so enjoyable to watch. Totally love your personality and fun demeanor. Atb..Diane.
Thanks so much!
i come here after i've found something disturbing, it soothes my troubled brain, makes everything allllllllll right again 😊🧠
Glad to see you back at it bud. Cold Plots for a while since we have a lot a winter left. Thanks for the adventure.
You're not wrong, Dfaust haha. Thanks man!
What a great video ,Thanks Kevin.
I've lived in the Rochester area my entire life, born and raised here. Anytime of year along the coast or in the Woods there are beautiful campgrounds you can take trailers and tents to if you rent out the space. However there are plenty of Wooded areas where you can stealth camp that are so peaceful and serene. In the middle of summer I used to camp in the forests around my area and besides the bugs they are so peaceful. The amount of wildlife sometimes is the only issue.
Yeah I think this areas beauty is severely underrated... I know people who don't even know about high falls.
Always entertained by your videos. Nice to see you back.
Thanks man!
Man you're crazy 😂😂 great to watch 👌👍
Great video brother,, love the snow
good times good times !!!...cool vid bratha
Thanks Mark!
Loved the video Kevin. A new direction and love the new segment as well. I’ll hit you up in a bit my friend.
Love the winter stuff and love the beard, keep up the good work!
Thanks, Winta!

You may not face the conditions that Luke faces, but you are out there CAMPIN"!!! Good on ya, Kevin...
It is a "camping event"
@@smallplots HAR!! I see what you did there...
Broke trail nearly every snow day carrying mail. All day every day.
Enjoy these adventures. Time goes by so fast ...
Oh man, that's amazing. I give serious props to mail carriers around the country, you guys are seriously the lifeblood. Thanks for doing what you do 🫡
Thanks Kevin! 👍
keep it up i love the content
Sweet release
Only for you baby
I have this incredible urge to munch on some hot dogs and buy an F150.
Awesome video.
I feel your pain on the filming issues, just finished an Amtrak/SEPTA stealth with a bunch of issues.
13°F... Gimbal was buggy, GoPro dieing, Camera app on the phone crashing, batteries not charging, phone not charging. Lost a lot of footage.
As soon as I got home I ordered a bunch of Enduro GoPro batteries.
Thanks for a great video.
Thanks man! Yeah, getting a hero 10 soon so I can use the Enduro batteries, currently filming with an 8 so it's not compatible.
@@smallplots Awesome!
KEVIN IS BACK!!!! Welcome back brother....we missed you.
Thanks McDiesel!
Nice to see you back at it Kevin. Wooooweeee did that look like a cold one. I would love to do a hammock camp but I don't think it would work with my dog. Lol Cheers to you good sir 👍
Thanks man! Yeah, it was, as the French say, totally mondo cold.
FINALLY!!!
Keep up the good work small plottin'. Greetings from California!!!
Thanks, Igor!
Awesome video, and welcome back. Wish I could get some Space Kitty in NH, and drink one while watching new episodes lol. Kind of like drinking a White Russian while watching The Big Lebowski ! Keep up the great content.
Thanks, Matty! Yeah, hopefully someday the glory of the kitty will be unleashed upon the world.
@@smallplots I can only keep my fingers crossed!
thanks for the vid - sounds like the traffic dropped off the later it got there. It's nice just to get outside... Love the sliced bread hotdogs in the fire - we always did it that way growing up.
That's the best way! And yeah it definitely dropped off, but still enough to be ever-present
Love the ash dog💪
Nature's bbq
The beginning walk felt like I was watching a dark souls intro. Very nice!
Haha awesome. I'm playing the PS5 Demons Souls right now, so maybe some influence leaked in
That’s awesome mate, I wanna camp in snow so bad. Hat off to ya camping in that weather
Thanks man! Camping in the snow is fun, but it also makes you miss non-snow camping haha
@@smallplots haha yeah I bet
Hi very amazing to have yu back and 👀your video
Thanks Brenda!
You are one of the very few man on who a beard is looking great!
Filming in the cold Is tough. Pockets full of stuff sleep with things you shouldn't be. Man I just don't know how you eat hot dogs like that. Man. Thanks for the mention and more so the picture. I figured you had lots of hair. And the beard is looking good. Got some catching up to but your getting there. Great video man love seeing the snow.
Thanks Paul! Haha yeah, def got a ways to go with the beard. And yes, I'm sleeping with the gopro, gopro batteries in a sandwich bag, my phone and that's connected to an external battery as wel... It can get crowded in there! I wish i had a better pic, but it was the best I could find quickly. Cheers man!
the jr joke made me laugh 🤣
Watching a few old small plots vids tonight...this one to me at least...is one of your best. I think it's the snow/snow falling and the fire
Thanks, Rui! I like this one, too
7th missed you more 💚🤣👍
Ah golly
Hi from the uk Great video, really a big fan of stealth camping, myself and my five year old son , watch your videos most night,
Thanks, Gary!
You forget the little things, like the minus four billion degrees temperatures.....😉
Yeah it was a lil chilly
You looked like Rudolph there right before rack ops 😄👍🏽🙋🏾♂️
Haha yeah, my red nose is always a dead giveaway on the temps
5/22/2022 .....rewatch! 😀 You are the best Kevin.....so funny! 👌
Thanks papa smurf!
This is may29? and it's Been 80 degree's maybe this will help cool it down LOL. Thank you for sharing this.
Always enjoyable. Wish your videos were longer. I’m going to predict 50K by the end of this year. Ford should send you a check. More people have seen the sign from your video than from the highway. Take care.
Haha that would be wild! Thanks Joe. Sometimes I do make longer vids, depends on what I'm doin and how long i have to edit.
Hi from 🇨🇦
Hi ben!
@14:45 Love Joe Robinet's Channel!! And Steve Wallis!! Two of Canada's finest YT'ers doing bushcraft or just plain fun camping outdoors!! 🏕 BTW, why is there a tree 🌳 stand by railroad tracks 🛤 and a highway??? I HOPE it is not for hunting? (Only because of the risk of a stray bullet flying and hitting a car, train, or worse a person!!
It is for hunting, it's highly illegal and put up by assholes ❤️
@@smallplots LOL "and put up by assholes"? I wasn't expecting to hear that word from you. But your comedic timing--though also making a good point--gave me a good laugh. (I still get the fits of giggles thinking of that towel around your head with Sam during your last two nighter in Kilpnocky. ☺️🤣)
You DO know how funny you are right??)
AH failed notifications id missed this
Enjoyed this video. I wish you would use a tent sometime.
A few videos ago I used a tent! Will definitely do more this year
First one to click LIKE! MIssed you Kevin!
Ah shucks, thanks mud!
We missed you man
Thanks dude!
Just that Highway alone....No Way!
Question for ya. What made you get in to stealth camping.???
For me it was I was tired of watching so I started doing.
Thanks man! I'll compile this one for the next episode!
I'm jealous. We haven't even had a proper snow yet. Only 3 dustings that melted the same afternoon.
My question is when you cook your steak on the coals, how well do you like your steak?
Pretty cool...u r just across the lake from where im from...given u r so close...try to do a stealth camp on the 1000 Islands dude
Did I mention I love the full beard? Looks great.
Thanks, Linda! My gf likes it too, so I'll keep it around for awhile
Camping with Dan I caught on to that lol I like his channel alot to
Yeah he's awesome!
Yeah I got mentioned in Small Plots!!
Hey Kevin !!!!!
Hola!
Say hi from Ireland 🇮🇪 for me please Kevin👍👍💚
Aye!
Do u do any kayaking?? I want to find the time to do a Kayak and camp this summer maybe in the Adirondacks.
Only ever been a couple tines, I'm usually too tall for a kayak 😭
The more I watch your channel the more I like it. Appreciate all the work you put into your videos. Do you watch The English Woodsman?
Nice, would love to see a collaboration with Sam Bananas
We went on a stealth backpacking trip across the city back in the fall! I have 2 vids of it and sam has one one his channel. Check it out!
YOU ARE ONE BRAVE SOUL BUURR...MOTEL8 CALLED YOUR ROOM IS READY ALL WARM AN FOOD SERVICE IS THERE N BIG POT OF COFFEE.........
WHER'S YOUR BICYCLE?
Maybe it was another cat lol!!
Throw some hand warmers in the sleeping bag by your feet next time. Helps with cold toes
I'm. In Vermont... That traffic noise???I'd go home.
V-necks rock! ;-{)🖖 #stealthcampingalliance
My mother in law tried to buy me one of those insulin pump headlamp knit caps i took a pass am i missing out how do you like it
It's great! Easy and bright. The only downside is it doesn't have red light, and you can't adjust the angle down if you're doing something on your lap
Looks really cold
Frigid!
I always look forward to your videos brother thanks :) I just uploaded my first stealth video.
Awesome thanks man! What is a stinky pocket?
@@smallplots haha people have to watch very close to see that. I like treasure hunts ;)
Hand waters will help
What is the music he is using it perfect for his show
would love to go stealth camping with kevin sometime, im an hour east of you. please get a hold of me. love all the videos!
That would be bad ass, camp with a fan video. I’m 90 minutes east of Rochester. Kevin, it’s happening lol I’m assuming there’s a credit check, background check process before camping with some RUclips randos like all the other fine stealth vlog establishments do.
@@phillipg7315 planning on doing my first one soon, got all the gear ready, just waiting for the night temps to be a little higher than -7 lol
@@simpleoutdoors1 That’s awesome! Yeah these temps are no joke. I’m camping soon in the Black River Wild Forest bushcraft style on pine bows under a tarp with a long fire but would rather not die in negative degree temps ha.
Maybe one day I'll do a subscriber camp! There's a lot of logistics and concerns so we'll see haha.
I've been to Gull Lake in the black river wild forest in the adks, awesome spot!
why not camp on the billboard?
cold countries need special sub zero batteries!
The gopro 10 has them, I'm using the 8. There's really nothing stopping me from getting the 10 other than laziness haha
If those were my footprints they'd be yellow snow every 100 feet. I have the bladder of a small school girl.
There was yellow snow, I just ate it
What kind of animation do you do?
I do 2D cartoon animation. I put some out every now and again on my other channel (YT: Kevin Markis)
So cold I don't no how you do It.
Willpower and beer
Hey man, focus more on cooking stuff, they are nice. Also, dont try to be funny all the time. Great vid!
Did you not camp too close to a highway
