Night Camp, No permission Wild Camp, Low profile, Strong Storm, Wiltshire Man

I headed out to a Woodland about 3 mile cycle ride from home using a home made tarp shelter, the weather was stormy, strong winds and heavy rain at times.
This had to be a low profile camp as I did not have permission to camp here. Infact I do not know who owns this woodland.
This Woodland is on the edge of a public park and pretty much abandoned and left to nature, I have visited it often over the years and removed rubbish by the bin load, I feel like I know this woodland well and it upsets me when I find litter has been left.
Thankfully the woodland it appears has not been visited in recent months as not much fresh litter has been discarded!
The woodland is old and can be seen on maps dating from the 1830's, it's shape and size has changed little in all that time.
I relied on my Hurricane lantern for lighting and was careful to use reflectors to stop any stray light giving my location and camp away.
I used a variety of cocking pots, MSR nesting stainless pots that I like very much and a new Optimus Weekender cookset with the Heat exchanger, I am very impressed at how fast this pot boils water.
The stove used was a Kovia Spider remote canister stove.

Your thoughts really resonate with me. Things like hot water on tap and central heating are very recent innovations. A physical roof over our head is maybe a couple of thousand years old, and less than that if one was a peasant. By spending a night out in the woods in winter , you're connecting with the experience of all our ancestors, going back millennia.

Great wild camp and thoughtful words, no one should be scared of the dark, once you’ve shut your eyes for a few minutes, open them and tune into your senses.

[@simonhorn1745]

Thanks for this one Sandy. Lovely and peaceful out there!

[@elderlemon8020]

Thanks enjoyed that. Good tip about the bird of prey too. Once a year a friend cycles from Wirral to Devon. He Wild Camps the whole way. A few years back on his return journey he was in bother. He had overnighted north of Shrewsbury and in the morning started the final leg of his journey to The Wirral. He was soaked through, had problems with his bicycle, very little money and was hungry with just a packet of chocolate raisins to eat. He said he prayed that morning to arrive home, but it was looking bleak for the chances of it in the heavy rain. I had no idea where he was but, perhaps by no coincidence, at about 1030am our paths crossed 15 miles from Shrewsbury, 46 miles from The Wirral. Fortunately I recognised him. Not only did he get home that day but his bike went straight onto the top of our car and he came with us for a good meal at Shrewsbury and was a great addition for celebrating my 50th Birthday! Only writing this as it was a good listen the philosophical part of part video.

[@WiltshireMan]

It's always good when synchronicities and coincidences happen and they do quite often, however the opposite is also the case and many are much less fortunate. I'm reading a book by a chap called Nathan Millward who rode a 110cc postie bike from Australia to London and then from New York to San Francisco and on upto Alaska. When he set off from Australia he had a budget of (I think) £5000 and got back to the UK with the help of many helpful and friendly people from all walks of life. The American leg of the trip started with just £500, I've yet to complete reading the book of this journey but I know he made it and I'm sure only due to the help of others. I'm sure some prayers go answered, but I must emphasise the use of the word "some"..........

[@simonwiltshire]

Cheers sandy, everytime i spend a night under the stars i always feel so much better, at one with nature totaly relaxed and just enjoy the now, this very moment because realy it's all we have.

As Carl Sagan said, we are all originally "star stuff". Back far enough, rocks, trees, animals, fish, everything started from the same material. It's a bit tricky to think of that tree or boulder as our "cousin", but we are all part of this planet. It's as good a reason as any to treat it with respect and love. Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@Mugwumps107]

MackPedition Edition Danish Camo Shelter, very nice 👍🏻 Getting out at this time of year 🇬🇧, in the wet and the wind and the rain 😩, I never fancy going out in it. Everything is damp, wet, cold and miserable. But when I do I’am always glad that I have and feel happy. It makes ya feel alive 😊👍🏻

[@ahbenjamin2889]

Sandy I am new to your channel. I must say your thoughtful words, insight and questioning of our existence resonated with me. Thank you, Sir. I needed to hear those words. Please take care of yourself and thank you for being here. Deep and profound respect.

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Ben, When it comes to finding answers sometimes there are things we don't know apart from those things we know via our senses. As to gut feelings and intuitions sometimes they can be right and often times wrong. I do have a problem with religion especially organised religion, nothing is proven its all based on trust and faith (could be true and could not be true) and it seems quite controlling and needs your money! Best to make the most of your life here and NOW. Many of our actions, thought patterns, looks and maybe even a sort of collective memory could all be embedded in our DNA a bit like instinct. Maybe thats why we all like to stare into a fire because our ancestors thousands of years in the past did the same thing. Eye colour, skin colour, hair colour, looks, body shape and size, thought process etc are I'm sure mostly hand me downs from the past generations. Its interesting to consider all these things, but most importantly if this is all there is then how precious it must be.

[@MrTimmyvee]

I agree totally with you about the handing down from ancestors. We are all star dust, if you think about it.

[@FlyingHaggisFilms]

As an Anglican chaplain Sandy, I never push my concepts on others either, but it’s true, a little solitude, whisky and the roar of the dark forest does link us to the ancient reality of timelessness and the aspiration of the depth within everything. Love that shelter woodland pattern. Take care my old KZbin friend, well not that old only eight years I think, assuming time exists😅. Harry…out

[@WiltshireMan]

Cheers Harry, I turned 61 in October. I think for sure encoded in our DNA are instructions on how to assemble the human form, skin colour, hair eye's etc and even our personality traits and maybe even a collective memory hence our affinity with nature and how we all love to stare into a camp fire. Also our thoughts, actions and choices/ desires could be dictated by DNA encoding (if so then so much for free will) Also we can look similar to family members who lived long ago, probably think similar and have the same emotions likes and dislikes, it's an intriguing thing. I was brought up a Christian but I do wrestle with some of the doctrines of faith and you only have to look back into history to see how religion has led to many travesties like the burning of women accused of being witches, various tortures devised by monks, the oppression of knowledge, even those who discovered the orbits of the planets and the sun centred solar system were given a very hard time, the list could go on and on . Religion is not one of mans best inventions! Is there's a god above and beyond all this, there maybe, I'd like to hope so but I don't really know. All I can do is be honest and true to myself and stand or fall accordingly. I hope we can have a camp in the new year at some point, I'm sure we will enjoy a Great discussion together. Have a Great New Year Harry Sandy

[@FlyingHaggisFilms]

@@WiltshireMan 🤣Infinite space and timelessness permits dimensionality. Man made religion void if spiritual insightfulness falls short. 🤣🤝

[@robhemsley9181]

Sandy - that’s one of your best videos - when you talk reflectively about the world it’s very enjoyable. One tip - I love whisky but before bed drink lots of clean water and have some by your side . Every night I take double filtered water 2 pints to bed and wake to drink - I think it’s very beneficial . Even in the cold you lose a lot of fluid . On Christmas Day my son and I escaped from Christmas ( which we are not fans of ) and having bought some ready cooked curry’s from the local takeaway we walked 10 mikes on no food and returned to base for a hot curry with salad and fresh green chillies. No tv , no sugar , but a very large whisky . That night I drank 1.5 litres of Evian and woke at peace on Boxing Day - one more Christmas escaped from - great video .please do more with evening thoughts about anything at all - it’s therapeutic- best wishes Rob

[@WiltshireMan]

Thanks Rob, that sounds good advice about drinking water but do you have to get up to use the bathroom during the night? I think it's wise to cut down on sugar and too much Chritmas food. Welldone on escaping Christmas:)

[@billhambelton7698]

That looked fab. Your sleeping bag looks like it folds up really small. Great to find a small bag that does the job in winter.

[@WiltshireMan]

Hi Steve, The bag is OK for most seasons, it's actually only 3 season rated but provided temps don't drop below 8C I'm ok in it. I always check the forecast before a camp to decide what equipment to take with me. I was just about warm enough on this camp

Thats great to know Peter, I think being down to earth and keeping things simple leads to a less troubled path through life:)

[@davebuts1921]

It looks like you had a well-deserved resting time Sandy. The side bags on the bike may be worth putting a black bin liner on them when stealth camping, the red is a giveaway and can be seen at quite a distance, also the bin liners can be used to diffuse light at night. Great seeing you out there doing what you enjoy.

[@tombristowe846]

Yes; I thought that too. Really admire him for doing it in that weather. I'm drawn to the idea but have never quite grasped the nettle! Partly because at this time of year the nights are so long. Also because it's soooo much easier to sit in the warmth and watch other people doing it! Note to myself in '24; must get out more.

[@patrickshaw7983]

Nice camp with a bit of deep thinking thrown in. You may not have been spotted but I bet that curry could be smelt a mile away🙂. Best wishes for the New Year.

Hi Sandy, Your Vlogs have reinvigorated my past love of ‘getting outdoors’ again. And 2024 heralds new ‘adventures’. I’ve invested in a new tent - a Black Friday bargain 😅and additional camping kit, so just the time (permission from ‘er indoors) and locations to finalise. I do need a decent Camping knife though. I’d be interested to know when a Jacklore is available to buy. Keep up the excellent camps and ride outs with the gang. I’ve subscribed to Lord Dickies’ channel too. I look forward to the next one. Best wishes to you and your family for the New Year. Cheers Des

[@WiltshireMan]

Excellent Des, get out there and live and enjoy life, thats what we are here for. I hope to be building more Classic bushcraft knives in the new year, I don't build them in large numbers and they soon get snapped up. Best thing is to watch for a video to drop on Jacklore YT channel and when it does drop me an message, you can find contact details on the about page of this channel Sandy

[@johnimmins7302]

Well Sandy, the wife sat and watch your video of this cold, wet, damp video and had to switch the heating on.🤣 The food looked good but did your sleeping bag remain dry!

The weather wasn't ideal but that is probably the main reason for you being out there in the first place. You looked at it as a fun little challenge and you went on out and conquered it and turned it into a rewarding and relaxing adventure. As you have said before: "There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad equipment." You brought the right equipment and the right attitude (along with some determination) and success was had. Thanks for sharing your time with us again my friend, see you on the next one.

Hi Terry, fortunately the weather has been mild, otherwise I would have froze on this camp, I always check the forecast and provided it doesn't go below 7C I am OK with my 3 season bag, any colder and I need to adjust accordingly.
