Stealth Camping Under a Tree 🥶 Below Freezing -6°C
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 фев 2023
- A lil stealth camp under a tree in -6ºC. This wasn’t what I’d originally planned to do, but there were too many people about for a tarp camp out in the open. The tree provided a nice bit of cover and also kept me a lot warmer - with about 3ºC difference between the temperature under the tree and outside it 😮

Thanks so much for watching 😊 Much love, Claire 🌿🐻

A great little tip I learnt in the Royal Marine Commandos, at night before you go bed, heat up a load of water, put it back in your water bottle, drop it in bottom of your sleeping bag to keep your toes warm, and when you use it in the morning you use less fuel to reheat it to cook with.
Just make sure your water bottle does not leak > wet sleeping bag.
I adore how you show things not going to plan, but still adapt to enjoy. You make me want to rethink my life choices!!! Please keep producing this content & let me know how I can support you from the states.
How can anyone not love this lady? I am watching them all again now , so calming and love the cello music . Stay safe stay free stay wild . Love it .
Only just discovered your channel a few days ago and already watched most of the films.
Makes a refreshing change from the normal beardy blokes and expensive kit to find someone more realistic and relatable showing that things don’t always go to plan,and you don’t always need the most expensive kit to get out there and enjoy time in nature.
Looking forward to your next films and wish you the best for all your future adventures.
Hi Ian, welcome to my lil channel 👋 thank you so much hehe, glad you enjoy my vids, I love to make them :) Claire
@@WildBeare It shows you have such passion and a great inspiration that I’ve now got my old tarp and camping gear out of storage and thinking of doing wild camping LOL😂.
Looking forward to your test on the OneTigris Backwood Budgalow. Will it be better than tarp and Bivvy?🤔
Yes, good comments... I get a bit sick, or tired, as a man, watching other men doing wild camps. Nice to have a feminine touch , without a beard obviously..I HOPE SHE TAKES CARE. (I ONCE DID A WILD CAMP IN A SMALL TENT & IT WAS
MINUS 10 or thereabouts, but I only had a couple of t-shirts & jeans on, & not a very thick s.bag. I made sure plenty of insulation under me.
Exactly my thougts! These serious bushcraft guys are too often focused on a gear and expensive stuff. It looks like these fancy things are more important for them than camping itself. It's so ridiculous 😅
That's why I instantly loved this channel. Simplicity, unpretentiousness, realism and zero snobbish talk about Stuff, it's so pleasant to watch❤
One of the things in life that I always look forward to when I pop onto RUclips is seeing a new video posted by Claire, its one of the bright sunny spots on what otherwise might have been a gloomy day.. Thanks Claire for all you do ! 🤓
Ahh thank you Gerald, that is very sweet 🤗 Hope you're having a good week!
8:17 struck a nerve. I always get sad when it's time to go. You thanked the tree for its shelter. 😊 Bless your soul ✌️
Lovely 👍 you can't beat a frosty camp! I always feel summer is over rated! It's like you've spent a night in a Christmas card🌲
Your smile as you watched that bird was wonderful, as if you just belonged there in nature - which you obviously do! - and recognised an old friend :)
This is so cool! It's amazing to see you brave the cold and go stealth camping in a busy forest at below freezing temperatures. The footage is breathtaking and I love how you captured the beauty of nature in the wintertime. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing your adventure with us!
Hii, thanks so much, it was very nice under that lovely lil tree :) thank you for coming with me, hope you're having a great week 🤗
Camping is the adventure! You have to improvise at a moments notice and at any time of the day. Embrace it, learn from it and move on. What a wonderful video. Happy camping Claire!
You are a legend. More people need to be like you.
Just been looking at your early videos, boy have you come a long way with your productions. What a journey, can barely wait to see where another 12 months takes you. Please don’t ever get bored doing these!!🙂🙂🙂
I camped as a kid with minimal money to spend and I still appreciate every indoor comfort to this day.
Fantastic filming and editing. Thats apart from finding a suitable place and having the skill and knowledge to actually camp overnight in sub zero conditions. Im in awe.
Thank you so much :) it wasn't what I planned but I think I was actually warmer uner the tree than I would have been with the tarp camp I had planned haha
I really liked this. I keep it cold in my room to feel cozy under covers. A camouflage tarp might be a nice addition to roll yourself in your bivy up in like a burrito for an extra layer of protection from the wind and cold and tiny critters wishing to join you in your bivy.😄Take care, from AB🌺(wild rose country), Canada
Yess I also love a cold bedroom to snuggle up in :D that does sound like a good idea :) thanks for watching my lil video! Best wishes from England 🌿🐻
Always great content, edit is great just comes across as a really nice person. I've been watching for last two years. Keep it up, you ain't faint hearted your always pushing boundaries.
Helloo, thank you so much for the kind words and for watching my lil videos since I started, means a lot 😃 I'm so glad you like them. Hope you're having a nice week :)
Honest reply and considerate. Nice people need protection too.
I pull or push to see what answers such prompting . Why else
to land a catch ? One explanation concerns my crafting hobby.
I learned in Micronesia of previous cultures that had no metal.
End result is a stone-hard shiny orb. Braided human hair has it
on display in ritual usage to appease man-eaters. To go there
the first thing I do is bait a shark hook with dead flesh usually
collected from tar surfaces where vehicles speed.. How hard
could it be to reproduce a stone age task methodology ?
You are such an inspiration , I'm glad I found your channel , gives me confidence to start going camping alone again, keep up the great work !!!
I just read this comment and was sick in my own mouth as a result.
I wouldn’t have expected such a difference in the temperature. Also the stars and setting were beautiful.
That was excellent, you caught the mood of the trip, relaxed and at one with your surroundings, great.
cute little tree, incredible how much warmer it is under it.
To me Aldebaran is one of the most beautiful stars in the sky. That slow shutter speed also caught the Pleiades in all of their glory.... Didn't see if anyone else covered it but when ground camping always remember "Head up feet down," if you can't find a flat spot.
So funny..Back yard camping
I love watching your videos. A little slice of peace in this mad world. Thank you.
Wow that is cold. Well done for braving the elements👏🏼
Always appreciate your ingenuity in making situations better, whether it's an improvised repair, or just giving yourself more room under some low-hanging branches👍
Thanks for reminding me that it's the simple things that bring us the best joy.
Wild camping under a tree in winter 6 degs below, what a woman you are Claire and you love it! I was shivering just watching you with my grandson, he us one of your greatest fans.. Excellent viewing.😊👍
Australia 🇦🇺 downunder watching. 😎
Love the chilled out vibe; that's what wild camping is all about. Subbed!
Hi Joe! Thanks so much, welcome to my lil channel :) 👋🏼
On my first bivi camp, I learnt a valuable lesson. I was in a group of six camping in the Lake District in winter. At night my friend and I lay under conifers where we woke up warm and dry. The rest of the group decided to lay out in the open. In the morning they found themselves in a dew-sodden patch. They had a miserable time making breakfast on the damp and cold grass.
Ahh nice, conifers are wonderful things aren't they :D 🌲
Im so impressed with you and what you do. Your channel is amazing.
Hey Claire that was a fab camp. What a cute tree! Almost a little Christmas tree🎄Those stars looked awesome! Looking forward to your next adventure Helen & Andy Hogan 🌲🌲xxx
Great idea being under the tree. I have noticed that if there is frost on the grass there won't be any near the trees.
Just awesome, good on you for getting out there
Love you Claire 😍💗
Wow - I've watched a few of your videos now and you blow me away, you are awesome. thanks for making this amazing content.
Aw thanks so much! 😃🌿
I keep trying to find something new and fresh to leave in the comments, but there’s just no getting around the qualities that make all of your videos special. Beyond the great videography, photography, editing and terrific music, there’s a beautiful woman with a tremendous heart, an unstoppable, adventurous spirit and a kind and compassionate soul. You are amazing, and hearing your voice talking about your experience and the world around you always makes me smile. 🥰 Wishing you all the very best.
Bro relax that was very creepy
love watching you vids, verry inspiring with lots of hints and tips 😀
I live in 🇺🇲 Nevada I don't think camping under a tree in 🐻 country would be as mellow as your adventure 😁
We have crazy squirrels in the UK who attack in gangs, and use knives. They especially hang out in trees, waiting for unsuspecting wild campers 😳
@@noodles169 I hear they make a distinct "govna!" sound unlike other squirrels, and have 2 big claws on each hand that they raise up facing away from their prey--like a reverse peace sign--as a form of intimidation.
Sharing that tree with a diamondback?
Squirrels in the UK are all high. I saw Bill Bailey's bit on it. Hilarious
Give it a try
Good for you embracing the cold Claire. Enjoying the experience even if it doesn’t turn out exactly as planned is definitely the way to go. 😊
Absolute star
Great fun Claire.
Fair play stealth camping in them conditions did it near a wood near me with tarp star show was good at night well done Claire great vid 👍
Your videos are so peaceful to watch 😌
Aw yay I'm so glad, thank you :)
Wow! That is some serious cold weather camping. Respect for braving the elements like that!
Brrrr that’s a cold camp 🥶 Definitely a good challenge bivving in the sharp snap of winter. Love the Owl noises, 😊 Thanks. Have a great weekend 😀
Hi Rachel! That owl was so funny, maybe he had a cold or something, sounded a bit off bless him 😄🦉 Thanks for watching my lil vid, hope you're good 🤗 Claire
Thank you for the video, I hope you are not cold!❤️
New subscriber here. I am loving your videos! Beautiful locations, the night sky shots, and you have such a soothing voice. Stay safe!
Many years ago I bivvied in mid-winter in a beech grove buried under a large heap of dead leaves; great insulation and a very warm night. No bivvy bag just a ground sheet and lots of leaves.
Great use of the tree, whilst watching it occured to me that it might be possible to slot more foliage in between the tree's own lower branches, if you needed to create a thicker ceiling, or if you needed more of an overhang in case of rain - I might try this. Well done!
Just carry a camo tarp.
Looks like fun. I dislike sleeping on a slope. It never feels much at the time but in the night when you start to slip and slide, it gets to you.
Yes I agree it can be a pain! I like my head to be higher than my feet when I sleep so I enjoy a slight slope. If I can't get one I put my rucksack under the head end to lift it a bit. This one was ok but yep very annoying when you start sliding around in the night 😄
Hi Claire, just found your channel on YT! Seeing your videos, inspires me, and I think your format and honesty comments about your adventures are almost dinosaurs values, we can use more of these this days. 👍🏽 keep up your positive attitude and spirit!
Awesome ❤
Amazing !
Another amazing video. Well done for coping with the cold. Just come back from the Lake District, camping in -4 degrees. A good sleeping bag always helps. I been watching your videos for ages now. Keep up the good work. The Ocoopo hand warmers rock 😂.
Thank you, yep hand warmers are just the best aren't they :D happy trails to you :) 🌿💚
It is nice to see someone so underprepared.
Thank you for giving us that oh so lovely to look at frosty night under those incredible stars. I continue to live vicariously through your marvelous adventures whilst remaining toasty warm and dry inside my house. One day, however, I shall venture forth.
Now there’s a lovely present under the Christmas tree 🎄 for us all 🤣😊 thanks as always Claire for your “on the wonk” video uploads, keep up the good work! 😊👍🏽♥️⛺️
I have to rave about this for a sec, The music around the 8:00 minute mark is perfection! 😍 stopped me in my tracks, I had to go find it and listened on repeat for an hour or so.. it’s a wonderful discovery. Also, catching up on your videos while I work. Love your voice! It’s soothing.
Such a fun looking lil' overnighter Claire! A bit chilly for sure, but incredibly beautiful with all of that frost covering everything in the morning 😍 It was pretty cool to see how much added warmth that tree provided you as well. Thanks for sharing another fun and unique adventure!
I hope that you have an absolutely amazing weekend my friend! :) Stay wild.... 🐻 -John
I absolutely love stargazing during a night of sleeping outside. Great pictures :) !!
This was an interesting one Claire. The difference in temperature under the tree was insane. A good place to be 🙂💞
Brilliant vid . Inspiring me to try this soon .
Very nice! Thanks.
Claire you are epic - love the fact your not just a fair weather bushcrafter I was out too last week under the stars 🌟
Hugely cold and hugely rewarding so keep doing what you love and thanks for taking us on your journey with you and remember no such thing as bad weather if your layered up and have the equipment geared to the conditions - have fun
Steve x
Hi Steve! Glad you've been out and about, the cold starry nights are beautiful aren't they. Nothing like a clear winter night sky. Yes this is totally true, sky's the limit with the right gear :) Hope you're having a good week 🌿Claire 🐻
Was on Botney Bay beach this week with a firepit in the Pebbles watching the stars and thought I was stealth until I went for a wee and saw the white cliff light up like a lighthouse lol 😆
Off again this weekend to Ashford so hope it's a clear night (sat)
Have fun on your travels too hun and keep the vids coming your amazing 👏
Steve x
looked like a cold one, love it when its cold and crisp.
Nicely done. Photograph very well done. What really makes a good vid no matter the subject is a great personality and you got it.
You are soooo silly!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how you do it. I watch Steve and Chris, and I see amazing stealth spots here in South Florida, but I just can't commit to doing it!! You rock! Thanks so much for sharing, freezing, filming, flying....... lol
Wonderful 🤗🥰
Really enjoyed watching seems a nice way to camp
You good girl. Love this site. That sounds patronising. You are so tough. I love the fact that you push the endurance boundaries. As JJ Cale sang "Travelling Light. Luv Yer 👍💪❤🙏
You're an absolute nutter Claire!.....and that's why we all luv you!!...Thank you for continuing to entertain and inspire us!
Absolutely brilliant, you crack me up ,thought you was going to roll down the hill.
Bbbrrrrr felt cold after watching that !!. You make it sound so warm and comfy …. Well done you . I bet you find it hard to get out of the back in the middle of the night . Keep coming with more Vids Claire 🤗
What a beautiful video Claire. Absolutely gorgeous. That tree would be lovely to decorate next Christmas. 10/10. 👍
Another beautifully shot video! Thank you 👍
Those stars are amazing!!!
Really loving your Video techniques, with the Drone, zoom ins, panning and everything. Great stuff.
We call this "HOMELESSNESS" on the outskirts of the big cities..LOL
Very nice little camp. Great drills. When I was in the army I used to love rough sleeping under fire trees and pines 🇬🇧 🇳🇿
Those stars.. 🌃🤩
I made use of a pine tree as an emergency shelter but it was summer and I got turned around because of fog. I put down some brows and slept pretty good. The next morning the fog lifted and I was able to get my bearings. Claire you are a hard case Camper and I think you Are Super Giirl. Keep having fun and making videos. Luv ya and remember Nature is Gods Handiwork.
Amazing video. Thank you for sharing yar adventures.
Hay there, I was camping last Saturday night, not quite as cold as your adventure, but under a tree is fabulous. Looking forward to seeing your next trip.
Great video, a great piece of advice from a Finnish friend is he always drapes a microfiber towel over his face when he sleeps outdoors which I've done since, just stops the cold air dropping onto your face.
Clair, always relaxing to watch your videos. You have a calm voice.
Bear, you can take branches from other trees, 1 or 2 from each and interspersed with those on the tree , add, moss, bracken leaves etc to make a very wether proof shelter.
Beautiful tree, thanks for sharing.
I camped like this under a large Spruce tree. Gently pinned the long lower branches to the ground for walls/roof.Very cosy and made Spruce tea 🍵 🌲in the morning from the leaves 😋..Awesome 🌳🌲🔥🌳🌲🔥
Hemlocks are one of my favourite shelter trees too! Nice work!
She's so cute. 😘👍
Awesome video, I loved it. ❤ 💯
All the love from Germany. 🇩🇪
I love your videos. You’re crazy!! And bloody brave too a woman on her own 🥰
Can’t believe you did that, and your night star shots are amazing.

Slip-sliding away...ay-ay-AY-ay

Enjoyed watching this, inspiring stuff, and like how you have shot it.
I'm addicted to your video's now, keep them coming
Hi Claire!
No doubt, Sister Tree has blessed you while you lay sleeping in her green embrace 🌲
Another great watch ..Thankyou 👍
The native cherry trees (Australia) grow with a canopy that extends 3 m. The ground underneath is dry. They make great spots for camping.
Frosty mornings are beautiful, especially when the skies are blue and the winter sun puts in an appearance.
Wild ❤
Super ! 👍💚
