    A little extra cushiness on your bed could be a comforter under you or a backpackers mattress. I don’t know how but I have a backpackers mattress and even though it’s not very thick, it really is pretty comfortable. I combine those two things. Combining your foam with something else might give you all the comfort you could want.

    Foresty, I sometimes watch another channel called Pavlina Sudrich. She lives in the Yukon and does a lot of camping, backpacking, and fishing. She carries bear spray, but she also carries an item that I am not that familiar with called bear bangers. I have never heard you mention bear bangers. Have you considered carrying these in addition to the spray?

  • @nancyhanson3472
    @nancyhanson3472Күн бұрын

    P.S. Maybe you could do a collaborative video with her sometime. She seems like a very nice, friendly person. I am not sure exactly where she lives in the Yukon. She has only been doing KZread for about a year, and most of her videos are shorts. She is doing quite well in only one year on the platform. (P.S.S. But she is married, although her husband does not appear in her videos. And she has her very amusing 82 year old dad in her videos sometimes.)

    That creepy house was "Laura's Cove camping society". No it wasn't a cult. It was actually a legitimate organization that had government approval. They were releasing British Columbia Crown Land. But something happened and they took off without cleaning up. Other people now are trying to lease this piece of property, with the promise of cleaning up the area. But so far the government has not approved anybody.

Me, I would get the serious heebee-jeebees if I had to sleep in one of those loft bunks. My claustrophobia would have me waking in the night in a panic! But other than that, the cabin is true luxury.
