Camping in a Storm in my Hot Tent

Camping in a Storm in a Hot Tent.
It is always a wonderous thing to camp in stormy conditions and experience the forces of nature first hand.
I choose a spot in the lee of the woodland that was sheltered and with no tall tree's or widow makers overhead.
My shelter was a OneTigris Iron wall tent,
Woods walker titanium folding tent stove,
Feuerhand storm lantern,
Vango folding table,
Fishing wheel barrow and folding chair from GoOutdoors

So - Wiltshire Man becomes Wheelbarrow Man! Love it! Vintage Sandy at his best. God bless you matey! Noel

[@WiltshireMan]

Wheelbarrow Man... Yeah, it's got a ring to it Noel:) Haaha. Hope your doing well. I have been Tent buying. Brought two recently. A snugpack Ionophere but decided it was too draughty for winter use so will save it for the warmer months, and a Helm Compact one which has been described as a Hilleberge Soulo killer. It's not as well made as a Hilleberge though but has a solid inner for draught free camping in Winter and everyone who has one is very pleased with it. :)

[@Wigglesway]

Spoiled this weekend, with my two favourite you tubers posting new videos.A really enjoyable one yesterday from Patrick Dickenson and this from your good self today, both very enjoyable.

Yes Patrick, been watching him for years, this is the first video from Wiltshire Man I will be watching, also enjoy watching Richard from the Day Tripper channel who also watches Wiltshire Man

A nice relaxing camp in the woods... you should of had that pheasant in the pot !

[@jamesgreig4805]

That meal looked bloody good happy camper in rain and wind 🙂

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

Thanks again, Sandy. That new chair looks like something I'd fall asleep in. 🏕️👍🙂😋

[@WiltshireMan]

You could definately fall asleep in this chair Brian:)

[@CRi5_Ralph]

Your Braver than me Sandy; In heavy Wind I look for a Hedge Row to Pitch Behind. Two Reasons I don't camp in woods is the obvious dead fall,. 2nd is the rain; Trees gather as much moisture to pore onto their routes so after a short false umbrella dry spell, all of a sudden rain reaches the forest floor soddens & softens the routs = The dreaded widow makers. Your a Very Brave Man Sandy. Great Video but please stay safe.

[@funkyprepper]

Thanks sandy, I really needed this. So much so I'll have to get out real soon. You've inspired me. Far to much work lately so I'm off to make an overnighter video. Looked super cozy in there too. Thanks my friend

[@WiltshireMan]

You can't beat getting close to nature Darren, It is the answer to a lot of problems in modern life as is eating and growing our own food, I'm getting into that also:) Look forward to seeing your overnighter. Don't let the B$ST£rdS grind you down! Sandy

[@larrymickey3419]

If you have trouble sleeping get a good seam sealed tent with full rainfly and camp in the rain. If you can't sleep with the sound of rain on the tent you're doomed to a life of little sleep. Great video , keep them coming. Here's a thought for a video. Show the not so glamorous side of a camping trip and show the cleanup and maintenance of your equipment when you return home.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thats a good odea Larry, I always hang up my tents to air before I pack them away afterwards

[@gilesbinyon]

Really captured the coziness of this camp Sandy. The stove and the storm made for a great video. Thanks 😊👍

[@AlexKenas]

Reminds me of hunting feral hogs, mourning doves, wild turkeys, white tailed deer, and alligators with my uncles when I was 7 years old. We would often turn the entrails into sausages and the meat into jerky. The bones can be uses for tools and grips. 30-06, 12ga, and .223 were common cartridges although .357 revolvers, machetes, and crude lances were useful sidearms in case the shots missed or the firearms jammed. I tend to add chopped onions, chopped celery, diced bell peppers, and molasses to baked beans.

[@billcotton1551]

I think I heard pheasants! Love the wildlife sounds.

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes Bill this is a game covert. Lots of pheasants

[@annenewton5403]

Great video , love the rain and pheasants and owls.

[@wimbon1959]

I like the fishing barrow - as I get older, I CAN carry everything - I just don't want to.

[@mrgrizzlyrides]

Superb video Sandy. Other commenters have said everything I want to say already. So relaxing, it is like being there with you; love your narration and cinematography is brilliant. Thank you Sandy. Take care Neil

[@wayneberry8703]

Great video Sandy, it’s always good camping in the scrub on a rainy night with a belly full of good tucker and a warm fire to sit next to, can’t beat the old bush television mate…

[@andyfreer1343]

Enjoyed your video looking forward too more thanks

[@ianmedium]

Perfect outdoor meal for all the calories you have burned and the inclement night Sandy, perfect balance of protein, carbs and minerals and vitamins with the fresh veggies. For me there is no better camp than one in a storm! Looking at your car Sandy have you ever thought of doing a car camp, it looks like you could sleep comfortably in it!

[@macktightwad606]

Fishing barrow seems a good bit of Kit Sandy ! As always enjoyed watching your time out. I love hearing the rain on a tarp !

[@WiltshireMan]

You can't beat the sound of rain on tarp or tent Mack, it's very relaxing:)

[@davidbarnfield9849]

Hello darling Sandy, I really like your Hot Tent and with the wood burner you got all the comforts of being at home but benefits of being surrounded by nature. Your camping is not dictated by the weather well done. Dave B. Thailand.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Dave, it is good to hear the sounds of nature and to experience first hand:)

[@adelarsen9776]

I have just taken delivery of 2 beautiful Feuerhand Baby 276 lanterns. I got a black and a blue one. I'm running one on Citronella lamp oil for the bugs in summer and the other on ordinary non smoking indoor lamp oil. Mark also purchased a couple of them. Thanks for the info and inspiration. My 2 new lanterns are a lovely touch to my regression into hermitage. And they're useful too in summer when the power fails.

[@WiltshireMan]

Sounds like you have got yourself two lovely babies there Ade:)

[@simonwiltshire]

I like the new gear transporter, great idea i might look for one of them myself, cheers sandy.

Thanks Elliot sure was a relaxing camp even with the strong wind

[@oscartravis5740]

Safe and sound in a hot tent with good grub while the wind roars away outside, just perfect. If I was a dog I would've had strings of drool hanging down watching that stir fry sizzle, looked delicious 🙂

[@rialobran]

Knowing how far you have to travel to get to the woods, that little barrow is going to be very useful indeed Nice one WW.

[@rkw4565]

No doubt, but we'd all have to resist the temptation to bring one more thing!

[@WiltshireMan]

It takes the weight off the shoulders and hips Si.

[@robandrews9165]

Love that tent!

[@Andyb2379]

This is definitely my type of camping. Good food, nice lighting & a warm tent. I reckon you could stay out in this set up for weeks if needs be. Stay safe out there Sandy

[@WiltshireMan]

You could stay out indefinately in na hot or heated tent Andy as the stove gives you the ability to dry cloths, cook and keep warm

[@campfire52]

There just aren't too many things more soothing and relaxing than listening to rain on the roof of a tent or shelter in the woods Sandy. It is usually not very enjoyable to pack up the wet gear the next morning however. But overall, the price that is paid usually is more than worth the effort. Seeing you using those old oil lamps has inspired me to acquire a few myself. They are definitely fascinating and worthwhile to use in my opinion. I have used them while camping and while just sitting out in my back yard during the warmer weather. Thank you for the inspiration. And as always, thanks for sharing what you are up to my friend. It is always interesting and enjoyable, see you on the next one.

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Terry These old lamps are very reliable but some of the cheaper brands are better off being avoided. Mine are all Feuerhand German built and with care will last a long time, I think Dietz make a similar lamp also. The tent got soaked and takes a couple of days to dry out but it's something that must be done. I have used my gear many times and it's still good as new, so it pays to look after your kit:)

[@fatdude8716]

Thanks for the video Sandy, dit dit

[@bradlyttle]

I always enjoy your overnighter camps in the woods. Nothing beats listening to the wind in the boughs, rain on the fly, and the night calls of nature. Some of your gear I've never seen before, thanks very much for the links. ATB.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Brad, glad you enjoyed the video

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Michael

[@stevetaylor8446]

Another good one buddy. The difference between this one and my nights out...I'm like a ninja on Redbull...tarp and hammock away, underquilt and top quilt away, alcohol or gas stove away, area set fair and gone...but when it comes yo ultimate comfort, this type of camping you've got the ultimate comfort, with all mod cons. Takes longer to set up and pack away, but what a night. Sooo good to see you set fair, leaving no trace and loving that barrow...makes life so much easier. Good listening to the rain and hearing the different wildlife...far cry from where I am...different birds and not as interesting sometimes, no deer where I am, have to travel further out, as only 2 doors away from SE London

[@WiltshireMan]

Yes, this is heavyweight camping Steve, takes about an hour to get setup and to take down:)

[@mikefrombournemouth2942]

A seasoned professional prepper chef. Like your use of the fishing wheelbarrow.👍 You know how to organise yourself. All your kit in the right place and place made for your kit. I hope youngsters view your adventures. Do you ever give lectures to Scouts?

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Mike I did once do a scout lecture but it was about amateur radio and morse code

[@neilwilkinson5415]

Excellent video Sandy. I always enjoy your woodland camping overnighters. It’s very relaxing hearing the rain and wind outside when you are tucked up in the tent or the bivvy. I think it harks back to some primeval instinct feeling safe and secure from the elements. Thanks for a great video.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Neil I think your right

[@MiriamKennedy]

Very nice Sandy! What a harsh critic you are of your food - quickly moving from an 8 to a 7.5/10 😂 All looked good inside while the elements had a party outside! Lots of comforts to make it more enjoyable and relaxing - very nice 👍

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Miriam I love camping when the weather is inclement. It's always amazing how cosy you can stay inside a good tent. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas:) Sandy

[@trucker9462]

Another good video sandy. I keep a pair of gloves in my stove kit which I wear when iam assembling and deasseming it. They keep my hands clean from ash and soot

[@kevinjohnson9533]

How dare you Sandy. You are scoffing down that stir fry like a famine victim and only giving it an 8. It was a 10 /10 .😁

[@WiltshireMan]

Haaaha, it was quite tasty:)

[@christaylor9112]

Always love the sound of light rain on canvas, it sends me off into a good sleep. In all a nice camp, a lovely dinner and a warm tent, who could ever want more.

[@TheRamblingsofBry]

Big hearty meal, lovely. I was cooking a roast as I was watching, so the smells from my kitchen, and you having a nice cook up was a glorious combination...

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Bry, the taste of food is as much to do with the sense of smell as the taste buds they reckon. I hope your bodily aches are improving Bry, since reducing my carb intake I am a little better apart from the hip, that just nags at me at the moment! But as you say "That too shall pass". Ekhart Tolle has a wonderful video about happiness, I've left you a message on FB

Ooh! A video from Mr. Wiltshire … hold on there, chap. I need to nip to the shop for a bottle of beer so I can enjoy with you… ...well, it turned out to be a bottle of cider and a pizza, so I wasn't hungry when you produced that "meal for two" (shame you didn't take one of those mobile Extra Mouths with you!).

I like the fishing barrow. I use a beach cart for some transporting of gear to a location. I was thinking a bicycle trailer on the back of a bike might work for a few applications too. Wind is blowing a gale here today. I would say winter is here to stay but we get a warm spell each time I do.

Winter is well and truely set in over here Jim. Freezing fog and a cold east breeze for the last couple of days and more to come

[@mooseyrambling5838]

Good to see you out again Sandy, I have spent my Sunday up my local wood. I was up and out before sun rise I like to get to the woods and watch as the night time slips away and the day begins. A magical time of day any time of year , even if it was raining and really soggy underfoot. Out looking for some camp spots for my next few trips out which I hope to get in up to Christmas. I see you kept the good grub selection going mate, in your little woodland pad and I'd give you a good 8 out of ten for a woodland meal, beats ration pack or dehydrated. Another good camp Sandy, really enjoyed your company for the half hour, thanks for taking us along. Regards to one and all in the house of the Wiltshire man, Big thumbs up.

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Moosey thanks. Yes watching a new day break in the woodlands is a magical thing. I'll have to check out your channel to see if you record any camps/ experiences. Ration pack food is OK but cooking fresh food(if it can be called that) is probably better:)

[@leslietayloriii8405]

Well Carmen missed out on a good meal there Another great video I've not done much camping in the past but due to change in circumstances I will be doing some in the new year Could you give me some info on buying small compact cooking gear please Take care

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi, Well there are just so many options out there for cooking pots and stoves, all I can suggest is to take your time and watch a few other youtubers and see what you think will suit your situation and need the best. I have always found Trangia stoves and cookers to be good, but perhaps not super lightweight of packable unless you go for the folding Trangia Triangle. These stoves use Meths as fuel and no moving parts or jets to clog.

[@mtbalot]

All that was missing was the Scrumpy. I bet you get some great local brews?

[@WiltshireMan]

The local brewery is Arkells, quite nice beer:)

Hi Sandy, nice to see some fishing items coming into your camping videos 👍 as a fisherman those fishing barrows make light work of moving gear and I have a fishing chair just like the one you have bought 🎣🐟😊 Why didn't you put that huge rucksack onto the barrow instead of carrying it on your back 🤔

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Chris, It's a very useful piece of kit. I didn't want to overload the little barrow, so kept a few bulky items in my pack. The barrow did still carry most of the load though

[@alisdar1234]

Hi Sandy, I really enjoyed the video. I have a question. I have bought a hurricane lamp but the fuel I got gives off an unpleasant smell. Can you recommend a fuel that doesn’t smell?

[@marycmcnaught]

Lovely camp out Sandy. I am curious how you knew the wick needed replacing. Could you turn it upside down and use the other end or was it just too short?( Just bought a Feuerhand baby for Als christmas) and dont really know much about them. I have also ventured into hot tent camping and the stove is amazing. So hot when so cold and wet outside. Waiting for some good snow for a camp out and want to try pulling my stuff on a sledge,( because I have so much gear) but love that wheel barrow idea. The Cairngorms were covered last weekend so it might not be too long!

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Mary, My old lamp suffered from a flareup then went out so I thought it must be the wick as I did replace the old wick with a wick I brought from amazon, it was a bit of a loose fit. So now I have some proper Feuerhand wicks, they are tighter and a bit fiddly to install. The lamp ran fine until I had it close to the stove and things heated up a bit. Then the Flareup happened again. I think what was happening was the paraffin was vapourising too much and consuming what oxygen was available to support the flame leading to the lamp self extinguishing. I didn't realise how hot the body of the lamp became until I picked it up, I had it about 18 inches away from the stove but on the side where there is a glass panel. This has taught me two things. Always keep the lamp away from a heat source and also how safe these old lamps are! They will self regulate and extinguish if they become too hot

[@marycmcnaught]
