Fully Enclosed Tarp Camping • Pyramid Configuration + Sausage on Fire

A handy config to know for bad weather camping! This was my second attempt at a fully enclosed tarp formation - see the previous set-up with my 3.5x3.5m multicam here: • Fully Enclosed Tarp Co... (that’s pretty cool too)

    Haven't camped since I was a teenager and yes, I also know the pain of dodgy knees through a combination of childhood issues, sports injuries, an accident and middle age! I often watch Claire's videos just before going to bed, as they are always positive and calming - even the bad weather ones 😆 Claire has such a great, upbeat nature and even when things go wrong, she smiles through it all. She's just a joy to watch and her love of nature just shines through.

    Oh my gosh. I love watching your videos. You are such an inspiration to young women everywhere. I do have a concern with the meal prep. I see you brought precut onions. Word of advice from someone who's been there done that. Lol. Onions start to absorb bacteria from the moment you cut them. Please be careful. I've had food poisoning from bad onions. It lasted 9 terrible days. I was so ill I dropped 40 pounds in that time. Freeze them if you're going to cut them ahead of time. The taste and texture stay the same, but the going bad possibility is a lot lower. I mean it when I say you're an inspirationThank you for the stealth camping videos. That is what slows me down when camping. I'm in the USA, and camping alone as a woman is scary as all get out. Keep exploring. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

    That's interesting to see you say that. The cooking is my least favourite part of camping and van-life videos. I always felt they were just 'padding out the video' with that stuff. I'm more interested in the 'vibe' and the 'ambience'. I'd rather see views of where they are sleeping and sitting and what they see when they look around. To kind of imagine being there. A close up of someone chopping veg and then cooking it is the least interesting thing to me. I actually really don't like camping videos when most of the video is them walking to the location, or visiting shops, then the rest of the video is just them cooking, and there's hardly any views of the ambience of where they are. So it's interesting seeing that you like that stuff enough to actually comment on it.

    Finally....I've been ACHING for someone to do an overnight in this tarp configuration, you see the setup videos but not the overnight. This is a very easy and very effective setup, you can raise it a few inches to promote airflow, or in bad weather you can put the walls on the ground and guy the door open in a way rain can't enter but you get air. That floppy bit, You're right, stake it down on the side. I swear this is the first overnight with this setup, I have NOT found another.

I originally had my spark from watching a show called “Ultimate Survival Alaska” and that’s when I really started to get deep into wilderness adventure. But, I only started to actually backpack from a couple of channels, the main one being yours. I love your style and your spirit with adventure. It truly is like food for our spirits. I just wanted to thank you for these beautiful videos you have here.

    I really like you tarp videos. Its rare you see people testing out different configurations in 'normal' surroundings and then actually using them. Really appreciated.

    when you mentioned bad weather it put me in mind of probably the king of tarp configurations is the "bender", a traditional traveler shelter built like an upside down coracle. actually built the way you build a coracle before you turn the boat over. it can be as simple as a few bent branches or as complicated as a more permanent dwelling and any size your tarp likes. something you used to see at the travellers festivals back in the day, ive seen festival stage woven out of large branches and half covered with tarp to shelter the stage platform.

    This is my "baton down the hatches" shelter! 👍👍 Where the two corners come together, I leave about a foot of gap for easier enter/exit.

    @@WildBeare hiya! Ya do love to push yourself ay! But the pole will be very much in the way inside, as you say in the vid! Therefore this made me thunk & wonder about a tripod of some sort to support from the sides giving u the middle space back! I bet there is one, ill have a look!! I also wondered while thunking about the entrance, what happens if you leave a foot or 2 wide? Easier to get in and out of and it can be closed back up for sleeping.. Love your videos, always a treat ☺️

    Hey, thanks! Well, I am down south and just camping in a local woodland here, I prefer to camp in the mountains for the solitude but I manage to find little spots to hide in closer to the cities too, it's never quite as relaxing as being up north in the wilder places though. I can see that tarps aren't for everyone, even just the bugs having free access is enough to put many people off, understandably, haha. Thanks for watching my video, much love to you and your wife and your doggo's 🐕🐕🐕🐕
