My wife and I enjoy remote camping partly because we feel safer than in civilised areas. We do, however, take some simple precautions such as parking without the caravan stabiliser legs down and positioned so that we have an easy straitforward exit path in the event that we need to make a fast getaway. We have never had a problem and now feel quite safe and comfortable and look forward to both time alone and around the fire with fellow campers.

[@4xAdventures]

Yes, I always make sure I pack everything away before bed each night, and I put the awning away so if I need to get out of there in a hurry, it’s just a matter of closing the tent and I’m off! 🙂👍

Nice

[@davidhemmings5676]

Thanks so much for making this video. One thing I hadn’t considered was less lighting than more lighting that was very insightful. I truly appreciate you taking the time to answer my question. And it was awesome that you referenced your run in with the high country men that put you off because I had watched that exact video which prompted the question. Keep up the good work!

[@4xAdventures]

Hi David, not a problem at all. I’m glad you found it useful. Best of luck with your solo camping adventures. 🙂👍

Goof

This is so interesting 😊

[@4xAdventures]

Glad you like it! Thankyou for watching! 🙂👍

Great advice, I have 5 siblings and absolutely love solo camping , I hear lots of strange noises from wild dogs, alpine dingoes, foxes, wombats scratching around, the worst ones are koalas 😂 Also people shooting in the middle of the night , I can go on and on…. The thing is that I still feel safer than being alone in a city or large town. Also being married for 35 years, if that ain’t gonna kill me then nothing will 😂. Just love my own company, and have done for 40+ years. Great subject…❤

[@4xAdventures]

😂👍 Glad you are still happily married :) All the best! 🙂👍

[@wasbruce]

Good talk. I love camping and 4wding and content being alone, but solo camping out in the bush still feels like a big step.

[@4xAdventures]

Thankyou. Yes, but well worth it in the end I think. 🙂👍

[@endless4x4]

A lot of great points touched in your video. Very unique topic not talked about before. But very handy. I have been out a few time in a solo car situation in the VHC. Once with my 10yo son when we got spooked by the wild dogs and packed up camp the second night and headed home. After that I vowed to make sure there was another adult with me. So I went out with a mate again to the VHC in one Ute. We heard plenty of of wildlife but it didn’t bother me as I was with a capable adult. Yes I’m afraid of the dark. But one day I’ll do a solo trip. I love the serenity and quiet too much. Cheers.

[@4xAdventures]

Thankyou - glad you found it interesting. Yes, not a lot of people talk about this, but it’s something that many people go through - a perfectly rational fear of “what if?”. 🙂👍

[@Bergo101]

Good topic! Especially when it get dark, things do feel different no matter how tough you are lol. Also, looks like you lost some weight compared to the VHC video!(hope you don’t mind me saying this lol) Good onya!

[@4xAdventures]

Thanks very much! (Yes, lost 10kg so far) 🙂👍

[@damo.77]

Yes some great insights there. I agree, theres nothing like being out there on your own, im in the VHC alot on my own and have never had any issues but i do prefer to be isolated with no one else around. Just on the subject of firearms, ive nearly always got the 223 with me just for safety with the wild dogs up there but it does also serve as a feeling of safety knowing that if some unsavoury characters do show up and things get serious then its there if needed.

[@4xAdventures]

You are so lucky living so close to the VHC. You never know who you may encounter, so it’s best to play it safe I think. 🙂👍

[@Hillbilly973]

What do you mean "if it's needed"? The only possible time a gun would "be needed" and even remotely justifiable in a legal sense, is if somone turns up and points a firearm at you. What then? You going to ask him to wait a sec while you go get yours? Or maybe even a shoot out from your awning out into the dark. This is Australia mate. You use a gun on someone, 90% chance your life is finished. A person with your attitude should be nowhere near a gun!

[@damo.77]

​@@Hillbilly973ok mate, you do you but if someone turns up to my camp and things turn bad i know im not just going to sit on my hands whilst they threaten me or even worse and not pull my gun because of 'legalities'.
