  • @crazyhorsejohnny1974
    @crazyhorsejohnny1974 3 года назад

    Bigger tarps are great in my opinion. Gives you more space to cook or sit. If it’s windy it’s key to set it up properly as you know. When expecting lots of rain take a piece of paracord and do a drip line at the end of your hammock. Then you have no worries of water making it’s way down and into your under blanket or hammock. Thanks for sharing. Take care and stay safe.

    Dan, time on your own is time to be cherished. Listen to a audio book or a podcast. It gives your brain time to reset without new information coming in. Your own company is the best company you can have, you just need to adjust to it. I love socialising with all my mates and never want the night to end. But to have time to myself is my greatest pleasure where I get to do what I want for a while. Great video and great rain sound. And the 5m tarp was the perfect size :)

  • @terrypatterson1481

    I agree it makes a trip so much more enjoyable if you go out with someone else - You talk and put the world to rights - eat and have a few beers/ ciders and you seem more chilled. You sleep better as well.

    @PhilCherry3 3 года назад

    Regarding your use of the 5m tarp, I use the DD 4x4 as my main tarp. I am going to purchase the 3x3 to add to my equipment. The main reason I use the 4x4 is for the coverage it provides in conditions just like those in your video. I can hang the 4x4 in A frame-with or without doors or in diamond configuration to get 5.65m of coverage! The larger tarps protect better agains heavy rain; sideways blowing winds etc. and they provide so much more walk-around space when one is not in the hammock. So I think you made a good choice to increase the size of your tarp to 5 meters.

    GREAT VIDEO and over here in Colorado USA I love the accent! FYI... The wind screen around a canister stove like 14:07 actually becomes a heat trap and it can cause the check valve to pop or the canister to explode. There are several websites that tell stories of that happening. Leave a gap for air to go in and some heat to exit like 18:06. Another thing... add two water breaks, one on each end of that orange ridgeline or it will drip water down right in the middle. It will do just what the tree straps are doing.

    Great video there Dan. I love the sound of rain on a tarp and to be honest the sound would have sent me off the sleep straight away. Love the big tarp, I have the DD 4X4 and swear by it!! Only tow things that I have an issue with. I'd have Drip Lines attached and anything that comes in a bag can and sometimes should be cooked. Apart from that Tent Meal :-/ that should be left in the bag...at home!! I'm off at the end of the month with a mate and can't bloody wait!!

    For those that don’t read novels or books then there are magazines or audio books or movies!! Honestly you will wish you had more hours to camp!! Take up whittling or carving a spoon or something!! Even drawing or pencil colouring books!! If I just sat and stared at nature like that for hours doing nothing then I would be bored out of my mind!! I have to do something!
