Bushcraft Hike and Day Camp with the Helikon Tex Essential Kitbag

With my Helikon Tex Essential Kitbag I head into the bush for the day.
It was a really nice hike with a couple of river crossing to an awesome clearing. Along the way I find some supple jack to snack on. I set up a little day camp, using my poncho to make a bush chair.
The BCB Firedragon stove was used to cook lunch and I leave just as the rain starts up.

We often forget that everything amazing is very close, you just need to take a step! In nature, you feel life is real and you find peace in yourself. All problems seem very distant at this moment, and time seems to freeze! Good video.

[@timosborne8174]

Great video, I quite often use the BCB stove, really simple to use and it weighs nothing.

[@BackcountryKiwi]

It's a nice little stove for sure! Cheers Tim

[@OutdoorsmanDave]

Very compact Zeb, cool seat idea. Where are you getting the Helikin gear from?

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Thanks Dave. Bushlifenz sell it. Cheers

[@consonantsandvowels1]

Thanks!

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Hey! Thank you so much, you really didn't have to do that. Means alot.

[@jasonedwardledburynewzeala9897]

Great video Zeb. That chair rocks, very clever. I love your kit. Nice selection. Great to see you getting some bush time.👏👏👏 hey what was your bottle and cup setup? Do you have a link?

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Thanks alot Jason. The canteen set is the heavy cover titanium canteen and cup. I've had mine for a few years and it is a great bit of kit but it does have a bit of a price tag. www.heavycoverinc.com/heavy-cover-us-gi-style-titanium-canteen-mess-kit-37oz-includes-tritan-plastic-and-titanium-canteen-cap/ Cheers mate

[@jasonedwardledburynewzeala9897]

@@BackcountryKiwi awesome brother. It looks bomb proof and quality. A good investment. Thanks for the link.😁👏

[@southernlandsolo7839]

Great shots bro. Is that the Helikon Poncho? How do you like it?

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Thanks Dave. Yeah it is the helikon poncho, this was my first time using it but so far I like it, packs down to a good size aswell. Cheers

[@backpackerofearth330]

Could I attach a bedroll? Perhaps by using carabiners?

[@BackcountryKiwi]

Yeah probably. A bedroll might be a bit big but you could probably make it work. If you checkout my gear loadout video of this kit you will see the mod I did to attach my poncho to the bottom. Cheers!

[@jonathancooze9813]

[@BackcountryKiwi]

[@BackcountryKiwi]

[@stamm2366]

@@BackcountryKiwi Jap the Story of that knive is indeet cool. It is the Tom Brown Tracker. Tom Brown has some very interesting books about outdoor and stuff. If you have the time you should get into it. DeinStamm
