  • In this video I try my hand out at some bushcraft, by attempting to build a raised bed. Unfortunately, I run out of time. I set up my tarp configuration, get a fire going in the rain, cook some bacon Mac and Cheese, enjoy some beers and bourbon from my banana flask.

    The shelter comes first, then a fire, even if the shelter isn't exactly where you want it. Gathering dry wood is essential, before it rains, then a smaller tarp to keep the wood dry as well as your pack. You can always move the shelter later if rain hasn't started. Build a fire before it rains. It's a lot easier to keep a fire going if it was started before the rain. Watch Corporals Corner. He does it right. Rain will run down that hill and drift into your sleeping area. A small trench around your tarp can help with that. Bring a small entrenching tool for that.

    I have been binge-watching your videos for the past couple weeks, and I've gotta say... Sam Bananas, you are one fun, likeable, cool, and interesting guy to watch. So happy that RUclips recommended you to me because you are fast becoming one of my favorites in this camping/bushcraft niche. We gotta get you to 100k... fast!
    As for your question regarding favorite RUclipsrs in this space...
    1. Steve Wallis - He truly is something special, but we already knew that, right? God protect this man at all costs!
    2. Kent Survival - An excellent woodsman out of the UK. Very relaxing videos. A true pro at the craft. Love this dude.
    3. Xander Budnick - Love this dude and his brother, Max. Stellar videos.
    Honorable mention to Kusk Bushscraft! That kid is amazing!
    Sam, I have no doubt that you'll be in my top 3 before long. I'm pretty much addicted to your channel right now. Love you and that good ole banana flask!

You also have done kayaking to get to a location. I appreciate when a YT'er changes their mode of transportation. Of course I enjoy Steve Wallis, but I've recently discovered a new channel called Strange Camping with Dan that I enjoy. Thanks so much Sam for the upload buddy. I was worried you weren't going to have a good night's sleep. Glad to hear it was a decent one.

    I was bushcraftng in the 60s when it was still called woodcraft. Graduated to a bivy sack in the late seventies, and eventually tents. May go back to tarp camping eventually, but I still love tents, and some years spend almost 300 nights tent camping. It's what I'm used to. i prefer it to the great indoors.Favorite youtubers: Wallis and Shawn Kelly, also Simon, a bloke in the woods. He cooks some great campfire meals, and has a resonant voice and a pleasing accent.

    What I do if I want to have a fire through rain is collect 2 to 3 times the normal amount of wood I would need for my stay and make my initial fire 3 to 4 feet tall in the beginning to get a good bed of coals.. But even then you need to burn more and keep a bigger fire just to allow new wood thrown on time to dry.. Punky logs I collect and place around the fire.. These are often very saturated and don't burn well, but they hold the heat in as they smolder and add to the coals..

    • @CampingwithSamBananas
      @CampingwithSamBananas  2 года назад

    I see birch trees behind you I believe? The underside of birch bark is amazing for starting the fire. Cut a 6”x 6”. Strip… scrape the back side of the bark into the center (contains sap) and use the ferro rod to ignite. It will burn for a while. Birch bark can also be used for food when in a life threatening situation. 😊

    Hi Sam. Love watching your videos. I started out watching Steve back in 2018, and got hooked. Then, about a month ago a commenter on his channel said he liked Small Plots, so I headed over to Kevin's channel. Then.... um.... here I am.
    Also, enjoy bushradical. He's more of a cabin builder, and mechanic, than a camper. His wife has a channel called "girl in the woods."

    First time seeing your channel... nice job staying dry! Nothing wrong with a couple cold beers and a swig or two of brown. Kinda sucks making videos in the rain, especially tarp camping because of the lack of light and the sound of rain hitting the tarp but you did a great job!!! The video was easy to watch and fun.... I try to remind folks in my videos that it’s all about the fun. Gotta have fun 😁... I’ll subscribe, so I don’t miss the next one! 🍺👍🏻

    Loving the videos more and more with each one. It’s sad you have to clean up after others every time you go out. I snowmobiled for years, until an injury put the brakes on that, and we had a saying… “Pack it in. Pack it out.” I wish everyone would follow that. Makes it harder for those of us who are responsible when we go out.

      @@CampingwithSamBananas No worries. It only slowed me down a little. I just really hate people who drop it where ever it lands and walk away. One year, we went out and did a trail clean up at the end of the season. We made the local snowmobile club about $350 on all the empty beer and pop cans we picked up ($.10 deposit per container in Michigan).
