    Eric, I’ve watched about 20 of your videos. Have done quite a bit of solo hiking and camping in my life. I’m 75 now, and slower than ever. But you have inspired me to dust off the gear and get out there again. Thank you.

      Well done Eric. Me also. I just turned 70 and have bought a new lightweight backpack 3 season tent.
      I am not camping in Winter not good for arthritis.
      I am in Tasmania and like to hike to a lake or stream and set up camp and fish for 2 or 3 days.With my Border Collie.
      We have a good supply of fish in our natural waterways. I usually supplement my potatoes and pasta with fresh grilled trout or salmon.
      How about the majestic scenery in Sweden .?
      Take care.

You often show truly delicate judgement in your editing, really superior judgement. Awesome art mate. Awesome.

Plus preparing a meal with a stove I'm very familiar with. Trangia is definitely a universal cooking set ( mine is the 27 ) .
