Small bear trick if your camping far out there. Take a bottle of ammonia and some rags. Wet the rags a little bit. Bears have insane sense of smell you dont need a lot. But itll keep them away and mask the food sent.

Years ago my Boy Scout troop would schedule nighttime vigils of 2 hours each where 2 scouts would take turns awake tending a campfire and remaining alert (12am-2am; 2am-4am; 4am-6am). Many a solid friendship was forged around those campfires. There's no way of knowing how many interlopers, seeing people awake, passed us by over the years. If camping in a group, this might be an option. Some love to stay up really late while others normally get up early. It's usually a win-win situation.

One of my favourite mess-with their-head ideas, when I'm parking my truck beside a logging road to go for a hike, is to leave an open ammunition box with the empty insert beside it on the seat. Nobody's going to think "Oh, he must have a rifle behind the seat." For food storage, whether you leave your cooler in your vehicle or hang a bear cache, is to clip one of those mesh tea eggs on top, with a cotton ball inside with a couple of drops of citronella oil on it. Bears, and probably other night raiders, really hate that smell, which will be a lot stronger than the food stored inside.

Getting ready to take some long camping trips soon. I took training to shoot my pistol 4 yrs ago, a short version of police training. I am planning to go get a refresher because I haven't been practicing. This time I'm going to apply for my CCW, which is recognized in 35 other states. At least I'll have it if needed and it will be legal to have in my vehicle. For everyday road travel, I will have my pepper spray (that paints the attacker blue) and a taser with a safety feature. I believe in being prepared.

I typically carry my .357 magnum revolver with me when I go camping. Especially if it’s deep in the mountains or in unfamiliar places. Just make sure you know the laws in the area you are camping in,whether it be a State Park or in another State you don’t live in. I recommend getting your permit to carry and take classes on firearms training if you want to go that route. Not only do you need to know the laws in that area,but you also have to keep safety a top priority when camping with a firearm.

It can be shined into the eyes of a tent's intruder, when It's dark, especially, which will blind them temporarily, giving you perhaps a little time to attack or run.

NO NO No! I just recently found your channel. And I have really enjoyed watching it. And even recommended it to some friends. Here is why I say NO. I was at Lake Eufala, OK a couple years ago. This entire campground- everyone brought 1-3 dogs. Except us. I was so sick of listening to the non-stop barking by day 2 we left on the morning of day 3 during a 5 day trip. Between that and people playing ANY music too loud. I have and suffer with a mild fear of unknown dogs and really bad misophonia. But the worst was I gathered my things and walked to the shower and the minute I walked in a HUGE German Shepherd jumped ON ME. I thought I was gonna die from the panic attack I had. The lady kept saying. “Oh he’s just a big baby”. Lady, I don’t care if Jesus hisself told me this was the best dog he ever made. It has not right to jump on someone and scare them to death. Why was the dog IN the bathroom?!?! I am a well experienced camper. Rustic and hardly any glamping
@WhereWeWild7 ай бұрын
Thanks glad you’re enjoying the videos! 😊🤙🏽 Yeah you really need to make sure your dog is the kind of dog that can behave in that setting if you’re going to bring them along for sure. Also I completely understand, when I was 6 years old a bigger dog attacked me and bit into the left side of my face. 50 stitches. Plastic surgery. Lost a lot of blood. Wasn’t pretty. Obviously that sort of thing can traumatize anyone especially a 6 year old, so even to this day I still have that in the back of my mind when I see a bigger dog I don’t know.

It would be funny if someone left another note. Unfortunately you're setting yourself up for a false sense of security. What difference does a note make & would an intruder read it anyway?? Less than 30 seconds & they're gone with all your gear never to be seen again... Vigilance is the best security, however if a thief wants something they'll take it & all that security equipment does is slow them down... There's no such thing as foolproof.

LOL German shepherds don't weigh 200 pounds, and if they do, they are of no help! 🙂I like the airhorn idea... these things are underrated. I just got two out of the garage, pressed on real quick to see it it still works, and my ear has been ringing for the last 10 mins! The gut feeling thing is a difficult one... it would help if you learned to listen to it... In our society we have largely unlearned that skill!

Only problem with dogs is that they are often responsible for going out and stirring up trouble with a bear and then lead it right back to you.

Nice… hey, especially if you don’t have anything else around either… sounds like a great idea to me! 👊🏽 Tampons too are classic for nose bleeds in organized sports, also that cotton makes excellent fire starter! 😎🤙🏽

Id suggest get a pack of quikclot and always apply pressure until if needed when you get to a hospital or emergency responders can help properly. Wouldn’t suggest using something that absorbs, you’re already leaking your human juice, let’s not use something else that is promoting that.

don't bring bear spray or mace, bring hornet spray , it shoots 25 feet
@WhereWeWild Жыл бұрын
I strongly disagree. 😂 A quality brand of bear spray shoots 20-30 feet and is way more powerful. It shoots in a wide pattern fog that covers way more area where as the hornet spray shoots in a thin stream. You’d have to have the perfect aim (in a panic with a bear charging mind you) and have to hit the bear directly in the eyes, and even then I’m not confident that would be effective. My advice is to use the bear spray on bears, and hornet spray on the hornets, but that is your choice.

What can I do to keep tent standing
@WhereWeWild Жыл бұрын
Answered your other video comment haha 😊🤙🏽 I’ll copy and paste it here too… Just have to make sure your tent pegs are secure, and lines are tied up solid. Bang em in at like a 45 degree angle. Can buy higher quality pegs, or use 2 pegs per loop. Also set up the tent in a spot with natural wind breaks, and set it up with the smallest side of the tent facing the wind and the biggest side (the door usually) of the tent pointed away from the wind. As far as trees go, you just have to be mindful and pay attention to look up and check that you aren’t setting up under a tree that is weak and has big dead branches that could easily fall. They are called widow makers, and for good reason. Hope this helps ya 😊🤙🏽
