Solo camping and dangerous cliffs in the Amok Draumr 5.0

Ойын-сауық

The temperature swings wildly from day to night, but I came prepared to take advantage of a break in the wet spring weather and explore the oceanside cliffs of the ECT.

    First impression of the OneTigris "Evil Eyes" titanium stove: Pretty good. Kept me warm, cooked my rice, boiled my water. Took some work with the bellows to keep it blazing though, so it may need some modification to improve air flow. *Thanks for tuning in!* 🍻

    Brilliant video. What a wonderful place. I have been using Amok for 2 years now. I love it. Sleeps like a baby, and I’m changing position like a million time’s a night, without any problems. A little advice about the inflatable sleeping pad. When you fill it with air, hang it over the ridge line. That will keep i clean, and making sure you don’t puncture the pad. From one who made the mistake🤦🏽. It’s a bummer in the middle of nowhere to puncture the pads and having to repair it, when its getting dark🤬. If you still have the repair kit, or weary little sleep!

    I like the One Tigris "Evil Eyes" Titanium Wood Stove you used, went to their site and they have a lot of cool products. And that stove is only $19. I am also planning to buy the AMOK hammock, how I ended up on your video. I already hammock camp and looking for an upgrade. The "seat" function is what really sells me on it.

    Awesome! I hope you enjoy the AMOK hammock - it's a primo piece of kit. No complaints about the wood stove, either. It gets the job done. Come back and let me know how it works out for ya, eh?

    @@radarbase Will do. Should be getting both within a month and will do a test hike here in Michigan. Think I might also get some poles for staking out the ends of the tarp, with that rocking, looks like the head/foot might touch the tarp. Poles would also allow me to stake them tighter in, decreasing the trip hazard. Thanks for the video!

    Through the hammock? Pretty much. It'll sway a little bit as the trees shake, but the inflatable pad and shape of the hammock keep you in a cozy pocket, especially with the tarp above.
