Love your channel Corporal. Another great video.

Corporals Corner just wanted to say hi Corporal Kelly hope you and you'r family are doing good 👍👍👍 now about that car camping I don't mind it or doing it my self like over landing and camping people Bing what they may need some part's some tool's etc. along with food etc. but to haul a tv and other shit now that I mind they miss the ideal behind camping getting away from it alla lot of good it did when you took it all with you had people conplain my phone don't work out here I told them good now you will have some peace and quiet you'r not going to be annoyed by people and family say I want this that and the other or you boss calling you in the middle of you'r vacation I need you to come in to work ha ha ha 😆 well have a good day Corporal Kelly (SAUTE TO YOU TO) C😎😎L

Corporals Corner hey Corporal Kelly here's one of my camping trick's food either the night before or in the morning before I leave to go camping tomatoes etc. slice or chop up or other veg. to bell peppers etc fruit to put in zip lock or other sealed container them there ready to use when you need them camping less work and mess for lunch or dinner at camp spot can get other things ready to that you only have to heat up or use C😎😎L

[@JJCordray]

Hi Corporal, I subbed to this channel. Good stuff! I also learned a little twist o the taut line hitch the other day. You can finish it with a quick release rather than pulling all the line through. Just pull a loop through and tighten it up. It doesn't weaken the knot but makes untying it much faster if it has been under load. What do you think?

[@brianmcdaid3178]

Enjoyed the video. This is the first one of yours I've seen. As an old former Boy Scout (as in the early '60s) we did a good bit of camping and we had one rule that was stressed and enforced on each of our trips. Leave your campsite better than you found it. If you pack it in, you pack it out. And if you find something left behind by others (trash) pack it out, too. I'm pretty certain that you do this, too. Other things. Campfire safety. If you cook in the morning - NO wood added to the fire once you are done cooking. If you do not need the fire for cooking, there is no need to add wood to the fire. And before you leave be sure the fire is OUT. Once you think the fire is out, put your hand on every inch covered by the fire. If any spot is too hot to touch, the fire is not out. Put it out.

[@charlestonbrown148]

Good scout safety! Be Prepared

[@GhostDrummer]

Yep, in the mid 80’s we camped once a month with the troop I was in. Our leader was a forestry ranger, so we got to go camp at some really cool locations in the NorCal redwoods and mountains. Twice a year we would do survival training. I’d love to have that experience again, but my body is too broken anymore. That’s why I love these videos so much. They allow me to enjoy the outdoors through these channels.

You just saved me time from joining the cub scouts. I was having a bear of a time finding a uniform that fits 3XL. 😉

[@homework3980]

If you check every inch of the fire with the soft part of your hand ( beings you have to touch it with the soft sensitive parts to tell), well you are setting yourself up for an issue. Remember his videos are focused on survival. Not on multi people camping.

I was the considerate smoker, that didn't smoke around other people that didn't smoke, and didn't smoke in their homes, even if permission was granted. It just felt wrong to me. But, hey, Smoking was a common deal fifty years ago. And it is a simple thing to be considerate, of other folks.

i bought this yurt on a whim a couple years ago... my kids enjoy using this more than the pop-up camper :/ sets up in 5 minutes flat. We survived a torrential thunder storm / downpour for 2 days straight and it didnt leak 1 drop - didnt waterproof it or anything. Love the fact there's no fly. i will buy another one of these when i retire my current one - that's how much i love it. just get some real tent stakes and you're golden

Try learning the alpine butterfly or the bowline on a bight as a replacement for the truckers hitch. I do tree work for a living and both of those hitches are far less likely to over tighten on you. Especially with those smaller lines. Ex army here that loved the video. Keep it up brother

[@johntaylor9320]

How about prusiks and carabiners? Just a shortcut to thinking.oh yeah SAPPERS LEAD THE WAY EVERY DAY

with small lines I always have the butterfly over tighten. I have always called it just a bowline (full name is to long) also, I can't see how or why you would use that not in this case, Joshua. I personally much prefer the truckers hitch for THIS job.... Also, Semper Fortis, ex Navy here, always making messes for you grunts :) Uncle is retired Army special forces

I actually had a next door neighbor who visited some foreign country (Sorry, don't know the name of it.) with his wife and loved yurts so much that he built one in his backyard. He also had a pretty impressive garden that spanned both his front and back yards which included both edible and non edible plants and he even made his own compost for it. As for fertilizer, I don't know what he did, but maybe, it's something that I don't want to think about, if you catch my drift. All in all, he's a pretty interesting guy and it was cool having him as a neighbor.

[@josephbrown-ut9ty]

Great video. I bought that yurt and took it for a 8 day trip in south Ms this past March. Mine wasn't set up right enough the first rain storm and we got wet ....2 days later I'd reset stakes and tightened it up ALOT and no rain. The biggest grip I have is the door poles on mine are a tad large so I need to cut 1/2 inch off each side to make it fit right. I also replaced.the wire weenie stakes with 20p nails with a washer on the end.

[@quietrevelry]

With the line locks, I believe you make the loop between the middle hole and the knotted hole. This way you have tension across two holes above the stake, not just one. But they are unnecessary if you know the basic knots. On the other hand, I use anodized aluminum Figure-9 clips on my tarp guy-outs. I like the speed and adjustibility.

Walmart might call that a yurt, but it is nothing more than a round tent. Yurts are portable, circular,have an accordion lattice wall, a tension band, radial rafters leading up to a central compression ring, which eliminates the need for a central pole and is covered in some kind of fabric. In colder climates, there are usually thicker walls and roofs, as there is often inner and outer walls and roofs with an insulating layer in between.

I'll tell you something about making camp fires. I have lived in the woods for 15 years by myself and I discovered something that will keep a fire going indefinitely. What I discovered is that when you begin to make the placement for where the fire will be after the stone circle is made and your about to make a fire always place a wood floor inside the rock circle you made buy using 1 to 3 inch logs tightly fitted together parallel with each other then, on top of the parallel log floor arrangement place a 6 up to a 10 in diameter log on top to the back of the wood floor leaning against one of the rocks in the back then take your kindling and stack it up in a thatched "square", not a tee-pee arrangement, up against the log on top of the floor. The thatched square arrangement allows the flames to cover more wood as it starts up and the fire will start much quicker. Then after that burns and creates the coals place the logs on top against the log in the back as you like. This kind of fire lasts and lasts until the single 6 to 10 in log you started with dwindles down and becomes hot coals. Just place another over the coals in the same place and start again.

Cool video. That yurt looks roomy. I just finished with a teepee I’ve made. Fixed some little problem with a gap at the bottom. I designed it like the plains teepee of the Native Americans. I’m planning on doing an overnight in it soon.

If your hot take off heavy long sleeve shirt

Probably not but thanks for watching

Worst thing you can do in heat is expose skin.

[@terrygunderson5681]

Exposured skin evaporated water (sweat) lost to the atmosphere, dehydration, plus exposure to insect bites that can carry illness like bird flu, line desease etcetera

[@stevemalone6012]

Lol..I kinda thought the same thing. I could tell that tent wasn't getting slept in as soon as that hammock started going up. Love the knot knowledge though! I appreciate seeing step by step how those are made.

[@doic342ido9]

No wonder it got too hot in that tent.... The whole jest of chosing a yurt is in it being made of thick cotton material that will actually keep a cooler climate during both day and night. The Walmart thingie being nylon....makes it "just a yurt shaped tent", which is prone to making the tent camper a hammock camper against his will in hot weather ;) But I´m yapping....^^ Thanks for the vid, corporal :) Main mission directive was met: Went out in the field and had FUN! :)

[@OakKnobFarm]

My thoughts exactly. This is a single pole tent that has 6 sides. There's no wall "structure", no roof poles, wrong type of materials; Nowhere close to a yurt.

[@kenadamson4535]

... I guess you could call it a "sorta-kinda like a yurt; tent" ... be good for the kids to stretch out in during camping away from public camp grounds ... primitive camping with the family and kids ...

[@Caintuckee64]

*I have a large family, camping re enforces some important life lessons; follow rules (most times ;) ), self discipline, and much more. Critters will help enforce rules after dark! LOL!*

Man you must have got stuck in the traffic jam from that bad accident on I17 last Friday. Did you bypass it at badger springs rd or wait for them to open one lane back up?

[@KRT045]

I was thinking I recognized that freeway in the opening shot. Been there done that . Between I-17 and the Beeline getting up north or back can be a test of ones patience when there is an accident.

[@kenkl5204]

Whe is that, ? i17?

[@islandprepper3791]

I have purchased a lot of walmart and kmart tents and you need to treat them with silicone spray every year, never leak.

[@93jeepTimma]

I'm curious if that creek flooded at all? Our monsoons lately have been pretty extreme.

[@ecouturehandmades5166]

I was a mite concerned with the creek, too. Those tall sides with recent slides would tell me to stay away from it after rains when it could flash flood.

[@joewilson2258]

I can see the problem with the yurt before you get it set up , the problem is the material as it is very thin making it not very wind resistant . The other problem is the center post not being strong enough to support against the wind . One is the last is the tent stakes

[@uberjimindc613]

Is that Old Bay I see you sprinkling on the kabobs?

[@Dr.Pepper001]

Nice video Gyrene. What was all that traffic in the beginning about? City dwellers heading to the wilderness for the weekend?

[@spartan_prepper_Six_7]

I realize this is an older video, but the hitch knots alone make it worth rewatching over and over. Great work as always!

[@alinch27]

Have you ever tried a Farrimond Friction Hitch instead of a Taut Line Hitch? I think they work just as good or better and they untie much easier... you can also finish a Trucker's Hitch with a Farrimond Friction Hitch

[@lakeside2143]

As always a great video by a wonderful, no nonsense instructor. Love all your videos!!

[@judichristopher4604]

I'm confused... Your title says this is a Wal-Mart tent... yet in your description box has the web page to Amazon!!!???

[@dustinedmiston8165]

Ozarktrail is a Walmart brand. Amazon might sell it as well. Not that confusing!

[@judyluthy9724]

I was raised bushcraft (we called it 'camping') camping...but every time I watch/re-watch your videos I learn or remember something. Great video, thanks
