Solo Winter Jeep Camping / First Snow Fall
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Back into the wilderness again for the first snow fall of winter, solo in the Jeep Cherokee XJ. This time i'm in a remote part of the North on a network of logging roads. Its November and the temps are beginning to drop despite it being a very mild winter so far. I'm about 500 meters up on the top of a large hill and the temps at night drop just below -7. The diesel heater is going strong and its surprisingly toasty in the roof tent although the sound is like sleeping on an airplane so I shut it off before bed.

Anyway enough of my life story, enjoy the video and see you soon!
Mike
Awesome Mike! Caught a slight Haze-like bedtime sign off as well. Love it.
Nice video…always enjoy and learn a lot of stuff from your videos…best wish from USA
What I do to calm myself down, is to carry my Glock on me. Too bad you guys can not really do that in Europe. A mountain lion, a bear, or a freak with an axe, I know that I have a chance. A pretty good chance with a caliber .45 on me. Awesome vid and I love your jeep man! Makes me want to modify my xj too. :)
Great video as always! Your Swedish is good enough that I understand it, and I’m Norwegian.
I'm here for the subtle jokes and the story telling...
Epic Mike, so glad you're back out in the wilderness and releasing camping videos in stunning locations. Love the vids, they bring me comfort and inspiration. Top draw fella
Jag är väldigt imponerad av din svenska måste jag säga. Jag tappade hakan när du började prata. Trodde jag fått en stroke innan jag förstod vad som hände. Now I want to hear Meg's Swedish! Anyways, great episode, as usual. I really needed this today. Take care, and thank you!
As a Norwegian i think your swedish is awesome i can understand everytning you say with ease er bare og fortsette og gjøre en god jobb du er en kjempe inspirasjon
Been a subscriber for years. Thank you for your dedication in uploading these. I periodically sit down to binge a few of your videos after my own adventures in my Cherokee.
Hey Mike! Great video you're a natural in front of the camera. I must come to Sweden sometime it just looks like such a beautiful country! 👍
Hey Jonathan, thanks for watching. You should definitely come here sometime, the winter is a bit harsh but the spring has much longer days and is a bit easier to get around.
Come a long way has our Mike, speaking Swedish now and everything, well done mate.
Jag tycker din svenska är bra! Kul att se allt du hittar på nu för tiden.
För att lära dig mer så är det nog som du säger, lägg tid och energi på att vara där andra pratar språket. Men också: testa podcasts på svenska, radio osv. Så du utsätter dig mer för språket. Lycka till med svenskan!
Tack för tipsen. Jag tror att det att se filmer på svenska har hjälpt med engelska undertexter. Jag känner att det blir bättre och bättre. Det är grundläggande men som du säger, att prata med andra ofta är nyckeln.
Tack för att du tittade.
I found your channel through an Orwellian accident. I had been conversing about putting side compartments in the rear windows of an XJ and here I am a couple of weeks and several videos later. I appreciate your presentation style, and your language and mannerisms remind me a lot of "Abroad In Japan" here on RUclips. Thank you for the content and keep living the dream!
You need to see his mcqbushcraft videos then, there's an archive channel of them all. Mike is pretty much the original goat of youtube bushcraft. You have hours and hours of enjoyment waiting.
@@Dravensdmf I actually found that one on accident via Instagram. 🤣
Thanks for checking out the channel and watching!
Tycker att din svenska var över förväntan Mike, riktigt bra! Känns som du till och med har en norrländsk dialekt haha. Grym film och fortsätt med det du gör! Sitter och drömmer om en sån Jeeo som du kör runt med! Trevlig helg!
Tack David, jag kände att jag kunde ha gjort det bättre men jag tror att vem som helst skulle säga det. Jag tycker om att prata språket och lära mig det. Jag och Megan måste göra ett helt avsnitt på svenska en dag! Tack för att du tittade!
I am from norway and i understod your swedish perfectly👍🏻 Got a 2000model xj 2,5tdi myself so learning a lot from all your great videos👏🏻👏🏻
Wonderful to see. I used to watch all your bushcrafting videos in the past, now when sourcing for a jeep I found this channel. Almost all the mods i would like to do. What kit did you use to move the front axle forward?
Great content!😊
I was still subscribed to your old channel and didn’t realised you’ve moved it! Great to see you’re still making vids and still the G.O.A.T!
Yes when you farted , then said show yourself I thought the worst obviously, a trip into the 🎄 was required 🤣🤣 on a serious note,you showed your rota pax system freezing up, I run a ATV, 70ltr water tank and pump in my landy , with charcoal filter.bought new, and an accessory for a quad bike,originally (sits across the backrack) for applying pesticides etc,works a treat,and easy access to clean the inside of the tank out,the pump is powerful enough to shower under,with an adapted shower head, installed 8years ago with no issues. Sits across the floor behind the drivers seat.
Sadly a trip in his layer in my most vulnerable state! That sounds like a nice idea though. So the tank is under your seat and the pump can fill that tank up and you can pump water out for use? My main concern is freezing. I normally use snow in the winter and carry no water at all but it would be nice to have something on board for when you want quick water.
Your dedication to long shots of your Jeep is something to be admired, however your choice of old school porn mag is a different story. Issue 7 was of very poor quality, It put me off my bacon 🥓
You beat me to it. I’m going out in 2 weekends for a 3-4 nighter. I wanted to go with the skottle for this time, I think I do it. I fully expect a 10 cm of snow. For the tarp go see SJK Gear Roadhouse Tarp. It design to go on the hatch of an SUV it’s solid and cavernous.
Tycker du pratade svenska riktigt bra. Åtminstone på en nivå där jag inte har några problem att förstå dig. Jag är sedan 30 år gift med en österrikiska. När vi träffades pratade vi engelska med varandra. Många besök senare för att träffa hennes släkt och vänner har min tyska blivit mycket bättre. Samtidigt är min frus svenska nu riktigt bra. Det viktigaste när man lärt sig grunden i ett språk är att använda det ofta.. Ordförrådet ökar och uttalet förbättras. Problemet för dig är nog till en del att svenskar gärna går över till engelska när de möter en engelsman. Säg till dem att prata svenska med dig så du får använda svenskan så fort det finns en chans. Vi är många svenskar som använder engelska eller gärna amerikanska dagligen i jobbet. Så säg till folk att de skall hålla sig till svenska så blir nog din svenska snart ganska flytande. Sedan kan dialekterna i norra sverige ibland vara svåra att förstå om folk pratar kraftig dialekt. Det finns också många svenskar som har problem med skånska.
Tack. Det var inte min bästa prestation men jag var lite blyg för kameran. Jag vet vad du menar, folk vet att jag är en engelsk man så de vill prata engelska med mig. Jag ber min chef på jobbet att prata svenska med mig hela tiden men han är mer bekymrad över att jag ska förstå jobbet han vill att jag ska slutföra. Jag förstår det men nu svarar jag på svenska när han pratar engelska. Jag är säker på att det med tiden kommer att bli bättre, jag lär mig nya ord hela tiden, förmodligen bara långsammare än jag borde få. Jag pratar inte med många människor.
Jag är verkligen glad för Megan, hennes svenska har kommit så långt, jag är verkligen stolt över henne och hon trodde att hon aldrig kunde prata ett annat språk.
Tack för att du delar med dig av din historia och för tipset. Tack också för att du tittade!
Wow, been a long time since I’ve been on RUclips. Haven’t quite figured out what you’re doing. Seems like you’ve retired. Found this channel. The Jeep has exploded into a magnificent outdoor tool. Going to have to binge watch until I get it figured out. So good seeing you again.
Hey thanks for checking out the channel. I'm not retired sadly haha, still working, but we moved to northern Sweden about four years ago. Thanks again
On my early age grandad always talk about people who die and make noises in forest. I know he say that to prevent us to go there at dark due to the bears. When I grow I got close to the noise of those ghost he said only to find that crows are very intelligent birds which can repeat almost any noise. That night crow make noise like a human but it was just a crow.
That's really interesting, something to bear in mind when I'm out there.
Thanks for watching
Yeah, my 4x4 truck would not have made it out of that ice crust collapse. Good to see you out Mike, carry on mate.
Living the dream, man.🤜🤛
Edit: I’m going to need you to save me a bite of those chanterelle mushrooms✅
* recommended reading whilst camping solo: “missing: 411“ by David Paulides
I live in Eastern Oregon and plan to drive my xj on the backroads to Montana this summer. Trying to check out the cooling system in case the temperatures are high. Don’t want any overheating issues
Funny little fact about being in the woods. You might have gone there by yourself, but you are never alone in the woods 😉
Man sniffs mushrooms, tea and 'resins' and wonders why he is seeing things in the shadows :) Love the videos. Always have. Thank you :)
Great video as always! I also understand your Swedish and I'm from Denmark 👍
Mike sounds Welsh speaking Swedish 😂.
Well done for moving to a country and embracing the culture and language and not expecting their people to keep you and your ways.
Greetings from Northern Ireland.
Having followed you now for a few years, it’s nice to see you in your element, enjoying things on your own terms. But knowing what kind of pressure comes (internally) with a high subscriber base, does it make you nervous as the count on this channel goes up?
Yeah a little bit. It was quite a weight off my shoulders when I started a new channel. I guess I've learn from my old mistakes and I said to myself if I made another channel I would just enjoy it for me with no pressure. So far its been good fun and pretty chilled with enjoyable filming also.
I think the difference with this channel is that I'm filming things I'm doing anyway and it's a mixture of workshop and outdoors. With mcqbushcraft I often had to come up with content and go out of my way to make it. It took huge efforts and it stopped being fun for me. The average viewers were really nice but bushcraft has a lot of unrealistic expectations about fantasy survival and nonsense.
Wow, du talar ju svenska otroligt bra, kämpa på.!!!
Nu blev man sugen på älgfile marinerad med kiwi.....
Fyi, we talk english like a kid without dialect. 😂
Razzle! 😂😂 more of a Escort man myself, some real forests in that publication……
Hey, det är mycket bra'!
At least it sounds swedish for me, but I am only a "stupid Norwegian"
No pancake but plenty waffle, and a bit of Swedish waffle - top job! :)
Love your humor man
First taste of the Yorkshire Gold is free….. after that the Mike tax is in full effect.
Another awesome video I was thinking that to no pancakes for breakfast
Using the CC when you were speaking Swedish was hilarious. Loved this, Mike. Thanks! 👍🙂🏕️🥶
Visste inte att du kunde prata svenska. Mycket bättre än vad du tror. Du har t.o.m. en dialekt.
Your swedish was definitely comprehendable! Love this channel, I'm looking into getting an XJ or a ZJ soon and watching you and learning about how to care for a 4x4 vehicle in our waried climate here in Sweden have taught me alot already!
Thank you, its getting better slowly. Ah nice, there are a lot of ZJ's around at the moment, they are pretty awesome when you do them up. Thanks for watching and hope you find a nice one!
I told my wife we had to wait to go out this evening so I could finish your video. What an incredible set up for getting into the remote back country. Thanks!
Appreciate you watching!!
Great video Mike. The Jeep looks like it can go anywhere at this point, really cool!
Great new channel Mike , sorry to hear about your struggles .
Never seen anybody sniff tea and have that reaction; absolutely hilarious.
Its some powerful stuff!
As a swede I am very impressed with your speaking, I could understand everything without any issues! Loved the video like usual.
Hey Mike, nice to see U out & about. Been watching you for a couple of years now, and always enjoying . I ve had a 1984 2dr. 4 cyl. stock and a 92 2dr. 4L. auto. Both were great rigs. Your truck is very well laid out, set up and just awesome. When are you bringing the family out again? Your son must be about 2 - 2.5 years old by now. Hope all is well , and looking forward to more outings. Cheers from B.C. Canada.
Thanks for watching! I would love to get the family out again but I think the cold weather is too hard on my toddler right now. Its around -18c although slightly warmer in the day. I guess when March comes and the days are longer and warmer my little boy can enjoy it more. For now its just me solo. Thanks again foe the comment and for watching
I got night vision and plenty ammo i carry not worried to much
Actually u are my hero in 4x4 setup,,,love it
I always enjoy your videos. Your Jeep looks GREAT..I currently have 2 XJ, and owned 4.
1998 2 door daily driver, and 1997 4 door which I use for my back country adventures.
I have a request, could you work on not calling it a car... ît's a Jeep .... LOL
Haha that's a good point, its not a car. Sounds like you have a good fleet at home! I would love a two door, the yare super rare here. Thanks for watching!
Swedish is really good ! No problem at all understanding:-) nice rig too! And I did appreciate what you said about being paranoid when alone out in the sticks, that why I’m not getting out much :-(
Thanks, I don't feel the most confident about my Swedish but I try not to shy away from speaking it or asking what things mean if I don't understand. Being alone is sketchy to be fair. The nights before I camp I'm always imagining crazy stuff, but then when i'm out there i feel calmer.
Hey Mike, found this channel by mistake and saw a familiar face... what happened to your other channel MCQBushcraft? long time no see, I've missed your videos, good to see you again doing some camping.
Hey thanks for tuning in. It's a long story to be honest but I'm active on this channel now which is more of a combination of all my interests. Thanks for watching again 🙂
Hey Mike, hows things chuffed I've found you again (sounds biblical 🙂) need to catch up on allll your fab new videos. Thanks for sharing, all the best ...
Glad you found the channel and thanks for watching mate
$7.64 USD for a gallon of white gas in Central New York, $7.72 for a 15.5oz cartridge of 70/30 coleman Butane-Propane.
I don't think he'll be popping there for fuel lol.
Du har kommit väldigt långt med din svenska på kort tid, det sägs att svenska är ett svårt språk att lära sig.. du är på god väg, fortsätt! Hängt med sen MCQ och nu här, alltid bra videos från dig! Tack ☺️👌
Det är på väg dit men fortfarande väldigt grundläggande. Jag har startat Duel Lingo vilket hjälper då jag inte får använda min svenska tillräckligt för att göra snabbare framsteg. Tack för kommentaren och för att du tittade!
du prrrata bra för den korta tiden du varit i sverig jag förstog alt du sa
Hey Mike,
The cold is really setting in now. Plus 8C in Swindon
You becoming Budha. Embrace the fear when things are fearful, when off road cycling in the Winter in the UK embrace the mud...Embrace the suck
I've never tasted a Chanterelle and I'm 60 now!
Great to know your a reader and reading Thomas books
Have you read the Thomas book about the Fat Cuntroller. Now Now Hows about that then:)
Best wishes to everyone
Sandy
Hey Sandy, good to hear from you. Glad your getting on well, your still very young mate. Its been cold here bow, -17 today.... How's the cycling going then? Must be a great way to travel around.
Epic dry humor!
First watch! Wow subscribed thanks love your setup and your no bullshit way!
Thanks for watching and for subscribing!
How much did your total build cost roughly if you don’t mind. Just trying to get a idea as I am building my jeep. Thank you!!
I honestly have no idea. When I add up paint and materials along with gear it must be near 25k over the last 8 years of owning it. But I guess if you look at it as it stands now and just factor in the parts and gear its not going to be that much.
Just a healthy reminder. If EV's are the future? Then how does EV Camping , heating & cooking work? And these tents. They should have 2 compartments. One where you take off your shoes. And one where you sleep or stay in.
The other thing is that all of these pop up tents should have some kind of built in canopy so that rain, snow and moisture in general do affect the occupant.
Lastly, Earth send Mylar balloons to space to land on other worlds. You would think they would make a great pop up tent that would simply fill with air and have rigid structures that would air up and provide a better user experience by now.
The other thing that puzzles me is that if you are going to be hauling all this gear that adds extra weight to the rear axle, it would actually be better to pull a small trailer made out of carbon fiber/ Aluminum with large roller wheels so that it does not allow your car to sink or get stuck as easy. With the wide roller style wheels, you can easily push it around as well without the fear of it sinking in the mud. This distributes the weight on your rig, and gives you far better options for water storage, Fuel etc.
I understand a lot of you like camping I'm just a little bit perplexed at the technology really hasn't changed all that much in the last 40 years or more.
Hey, I couldn't tell you how it would work with EV's as I have no experience of them, especially in an overland camping setup. You don't see too many EVs used for long distance work up here due to the lack of infrastructure and the cold. Perhaps if they designed a SUV with a suitable battery and the body panels of the car were all solar panels then long distance summer travel could be possible as well as heating and cooking? I guess time will tell but my guess is they better fix the energy crisis first because sustainability isnt on anyone's side to support the fantasy future they have outline for us.
The thing about the tents with two compartments, one for shoes ect, is all specific to brand and size. Some do, some don't. Mine have bags that hang on the outside that you put shoes in but when we camp as a family we just bring crocks and take our outdoor boots off in the awning room, put the crocks on and put them in the boot bags because it doesn't matter if they are cold or wet.
The tents are also fully weather proof and snow, rain, wind etc don't effect the occupant. You can buy extra canopy's and things that clip on them but to be honest we never used ours much on our old tent as its just a fly trap in the summer and more stuff in the winter.
They do make pop up tents that fill with air but the plus side of an aluminium hard shell is its ability to be loaded onto up to around 100kg so you can mount solar panels, canoe etc on top of it. the blowups aren't very good at this time but I guess they will get better.
Mate your questions..... Sip of tea. I'm guessing your offroad experience isnt up there. Pulling a trailer doesn't make off-roading easier and its fucking heavy with all the gear in it. It sinks in snow, mud and soft tracks, its an absolute fucker to move on your own and its often a matter of disconnecting the trailer, driving up tracks and then trying to turn around to pull the trailer up the obstacle with the winch. I know from experience because I wheel with a guy with the setup you have talked about and although you can do a lot more than you would expect with a trailer, its not going to make my life easier.
I upgrade my rear axle about four years ago along with many other things, weight distribution across the vesicle is key, not much is in the back of mine. Most sits forward of the rear wheels.
Anyway fuck me, I got through it. I think you should start your own business, maybe call it 'Mickeys Ant Fuckery' you could have an logo on your van with you arched back, thrusting forwards holding your dinkus with a ammunition belt of ants being fed into the side of it blasting out spent ant cases like your just MG42'ing the shit out of people, questions, observations, suggestions!! You get um Mickey!
Technology has changed a lot if you look at materials, weights and such but also some of it doesn't need to change that much because it works and its affordable unlike a lot of things you just said.
DONT REPLY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MICKEY I DONT HAVE THE TIME FOR THIS. And don't take offense because I'm joking with you
that's one cool jeep! did you build it and put the diesel engine in it? anyways I just found your channel and have to subscribe., ✌️
Thanks for subscribing Dan! Its taken me about 7 years to build it to this point, it came standard with a diesel in as its one of the Euro Export Jeeps. I've got most of the build videos on a playlist here - ruclips.net/p/PLQQXgt9BFgASOP_cvdHa-nAJEthHsIJRx
It goes way back mind so some of the early stuff might not be so interesting.
Anyway thanks again!
what breakfast with no bacon?
I know....next time!
Im curious what tent you use on the jeep Cherokee I’m trying to build mine similar like yours
I'm using a Wildland Desert Crusier 140. I made a review here ruclips.net/video/QTxgh8-3qQE/видео.htmlsi=O8FtdY5QSDbGewLk
Its a great tent, thanks for watching
Don't be a Jimmy friends.
Hi Mike and family i hope you are all well. Just found your new channel and subscribed.
Thanks for checking it out Simon and subscribing! All is well thank you mate
KAYS Catalogue Lingerie section - oh Happy Days. 😜 I would like to ask whether or not you still have MONZ? Thank you, great video and a superb fit-out in that JEEP. You're definitely an OCD candidate.
Mans is gone sadly. I probabaly have some kind of perfectionism syndrome for sure. thanks for watching!
@@WorkshoptoWilderness 😢
enjoyable video thanks .
You engine at the exact same clanking noise as mine. What is that? I cannot figure it out for the life of me
There just noisy engines. Hydraulic tappets on pushrods with sperr gear timing so its a very loud engine. I've had mine apart a couple of times, used very good oil with micron molly additives and the noise never changes much. I wouldn't worry about it unless its start knocking to the beat of its own rpm.
What have you got swapped into this rig? 4bt?
Its the factory 2.5l diesel on the rhd exports. I've done a little work to it but it's the original
@@WorkshoptoWilderness I saw the rhd when you popped out, was absolutely fascinated. Super unique rig!
Thanks! There aren't too many left here now but fortunately there are a hand full of us who look after them and collect parts. Thanks for watching
First vid I’ve seen on this channel, I learn so much by watching how you organize. Thanks for continuing to bring us along 🙂
Thanks for watching! I do have a bit orlf ocd with my organisation 😄
The thanks goes to you! 🙂
U speak Swedish good enough man...i´m impressed....
Thanks very much. I will keep learning 💪
I've just watched the whole wideo. I was wandering, who the hell gave you a dislike?! But, after your Swedish speech I can understand 😆
P.S. It wasn't me 🙃
Hello Mike, what is the long waterproof vest that you wear, would it be suitable for hiking ? I'm looking for something long but it appears to be old fashion ^^ cheers
Its called a Ridgeline Monsoon Elite 2 Smock. They are good jackets and useful for hunting and fishing. I loved mine when hunting in the UK mainly due to rain and that I hated waterproof trousers. They kept my legs dry enough to bear.
It had absolutely no insulation and it's very warm for strenuous hiking. I wore it when I went up Galdhøpiggen and it wasn't nice. Its basically a smock shell for light movement and rain.
@@WorkshoptoWilderness Thanks Mike for the details ! I've checked them out and Ridgeline do some pretty stuff. For hiking I think i'll go with the gore tex british military jacket for this winter. Seems more suitable to walk with a backpack and still a bit long on the butt. You can find them below 50 quids new.
We re heading in our patrol superroof to black forest this winter hopefully we won't freeze to death ahah Any christmas plan on your side ? Cheers from Britanny !
bautifull jeep!
I like learning languages Mike. I read and listen a lot (podcasts/books etc) and I try to remember phrases and sentence structures etc rather than individual words.
dear Santa- lol
First time in years that I see you again on YT, man I miss you...I know you have been around just on another channel name...lol.
Thanks you to fullfil my request into hearing you swedish skills. Very impressive I must say and absolutly approved (I am a Dane and did understand everything)
And nice edit once again
Skön norrländska ändå
Eyy man, where did you get that window compartment!? Much love thanks for the vid!!
Hey, I made them earlier in the year - ruclips.net/video/hHo5q983e7k/видео.html
I think there are two videos on them but here is one of them. Thanks for watching
ruclips.net/video/cC8-k56YXJ8/видео.html here is the first one
I would love to just sit down and have a conversation with mike some day.....🙏😊
Good except for self indulgent fear rant.
That was for you
Yeah! Nice! I could understand 95+% of what you said in Swedish! 😉
Unless something magical or tragical happens... is that an English phrase or an allusion to #HazeOutdoors? No more pancakes?! I'm seriously thinking of unsubscribing...
Yeah I guess its a English phrase, my old boss use to say it all the time before we retired to our hammocks on courses. I bought lots of mix and maple syrup so there will be a pancake cooking session next time for sure. It doesn't feel like camping for me without those overly thick and slightly misshapen bowl cloggers.
Thanks for watching.
You ever coming to Hungary write me and you are my guest. Not only on a steak and a couple of beers but I will cook you Hungarian pancakes :)
@@szakmanygyorgy I would absolutely love that. I've never been to Hungary but I know few people from there and it looks beautiful 😍
The Jeep is amazing! The cinematography is excellent! You did a great job, I enjoyed the camp/cook!!
Check out the Slumberjack roadhouse tarp. Great video as always 👍 👌
Where did you find the hood vents for your xj??
I got them from ebay in the USA- www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jeep-XJ-Cherokee-Hood-Louver-Alum-Vent-Bolt-On-Panels-Kit-RodLouvers-Cooling-USA-/281394848183?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0
All you need now are your guns; a spot of hunting would be perfect for these trips out.
Mike, great video and nice fire making…thanks for the upload..:)
For your light in your backdoor I can recommend the ledbar from Drifta. They have a EU store
Always remember that if it can put its hands on you, you can put your hands on it
Mate, du pratar bra svenska. Förstod precis allt. "Tummen upp"
Sweet video! What roof top tent is that?
Thanks for watching. It's a wildland desert cruiser
Sorry to bother you on this channel, Mike, but I was watching your 'essential knots' video and watched you use 550 paracord in order to make prussic knots and attach them to your tarp line. You made the point that we should use a thinner line for the knots than you use for your tarp line so that it grips better and I was therefore wondering what the dimensions are for your tarp line, please?
No worries at all! In the video I had a 9mm paracord with a standard 5mm cord for the prussic knot. Now I use 7mm for the main line with standard 5mm cord for the knots. The 9mm was kind of heavy when you had 20 yards of the stuff.
@@WorkshoptoWilderness That's great, Mike, thanks for the advice and all of your excellent bushcraft videos.
Your welcome! Thanks for watching

Hello Mike! I saw you backing up in that muck and when things started sinking in the soft stuff, I figured you'd be winching, but you knew better than to hit the gas. That was experience, period. Question, was the thing you turned the dial on the "Front RC control arm drop bracket"?
I wanted to give you a heads up on a trip we took a few years ago. Whetting your appetite for some desert exploration. The views are equal or better than the Grand Canyon. Check "White Rim Trail/ Shafer .....

Its kind of new and a prototype but its really saving me from getting cold hands! Wow that desert environment is absolutely crazy, I would love to explore somewhere like that.
Where's that jacket from? 😍
Its a Ridgeline Monsoon Elite II Smock. They are awesome!
When you started speaking Swedish I thought I'd see if the auto-generated YT subtitles could translate. They couldn't but the comedy value of the AI attempting to understand was excellent!
Hahaha yeah I tried that and it was very funny. Thanks for watching
Hello from the fens, don't worry mate the worst thing coming will give itself away with silver hair in the moonlight, the jingle of many medallions and the rustle of shell-suit you'll see him a mile off! ATB👍👍👍
Haha, he was probably looking straight back at me from that cave structure on the drive in.
Nice to see a new video! Do you ever come to finland? I'm an outdoor guide near Inari! Ray Mears has a course near here.
If you happen to come by it would be nice to chat. I would like to know about Sweden :)
I've not been to Finland yet but we wanted to travel there next summer if we get the chance. I've heard that Ray had courses up around Northern Finland but I never new where. I'm sure its stunning up there. If I make it up that way we can stay in touch!
Thanks for watching.
