I think you caught Bigfoot lurking in this one Richard . You're one lucky fella with the camera . 📸🎥👍😉🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆 Fattrucker

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

As always, very enjoyable to come along with you through the lens of your camera.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thank you Sir!

[@hammerhound168]

" Shugemery " is name of a U-tube channel that best for hammock advise. He is a retired circus clown that loves to backpack and hammock camp. Yes you can side sleep in a hammock, just need it adjusted right. Shug reviews different setups and hammocks and gives out loads of non-sponsered good advise. Highly recommend him if nothing but for the good chuckle and smile i have after watching him.

[@RichardOutdoors]

I’ll look. Thanks!

[@StuartDavies]

I have a ridiculous amount of food allergies. Your videos are my 'porn'! Lol!

[@johnwessinger2395]

Watch a fellow by the name of "Shug" and he has one he sets up. I asked him if you could sleep on your side in it bc I'm not a back sleeper and he said yes you can

[@keithbstar1]

HENNESY ASYM , you can sleep anyway you like. Personally better than my bed

[@skipchick9172]

Hi Richard I use the DD frontline XL and find I can sleep on my side no problem loads of room to move around.

[@RichardOutdoors]

I'll take a look....thanks!

[@StuartDavies]

As always, brilliant!

[@chriscampbell7883]

Never sleep in line with the hammock Richard. Always sleep at an angle, therefore your body is more horizontal.

[@abefrohman1759]

That chimney pipe is like a magician’s trick.

[@sheilamcgugan8249]

As Billy Connolly said If it wuzny fur yer wellys where would you be you'd be in the hospital or infirmaree. Nice one Richard 🤘 Regards Brian

[@RichardOutdoors]

Of course!!

[@HaJoSchatz]

The first night I have a very hard time in my hammock as well; although I use the large Hennessey and can sleep on the side if I'm diagonal enough. From the 2nd night onwards I sleep the whole night through, by then even on my back, which I never do otherwise. Then back home for 2-3 weeks and I have to reset again with a restless night in the hammock.

[@mischatytel9606]

I’m exactly the same. I used hammocks for a number of multi day adventures, and after the first night I sleep like a baby on my side….

[@trevordavis3752]

HI RICHARD LIKE YOU I CAN'T SLEEP ON MY BACK , I HAD A DD FRONTLINE BUT I COULD NOT SLEEP DIAGONALLY IN IT, SO I BOUGHT A DD MC XL AND NOW CAN SLEEP ON MY SIDE DIAGONALLY. REGARDS TREVOR..

[@RichardOutdoors]

Excellent. I’ll take a look!

[@HorseRadish138]

Maybe you were a pirate in a previous life who was bullied by other pirates when hammocking and need to get it out of your system?

[@paulaboyland2946]

Hi Richard, really loved watching your video, you made me laugh 🙂 so natural, looking forward to your next adventure 😊💝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 xxxxx

[@maceoutdoorsadventures255]

Really enjoyed the video Richard, Just took delivery of some ALT COFFEE THE PIONEER FILTER BLEND really nice coffee thanks for recommendation .

[@ranchsailor721]

Totally love all the videos! Love Scotland! For your thumb..lol.Spring Valley, 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil, 2 fl. Oz. a must for first aid! Heals burns and cuts quickly. Love the drone pics from Scotland....so close to edge..yikes...I am afraid of heights...did ride the tram at Glen Shee! Thank you!

[@cedarbrake1309]

I cannot sleep on my back at all and on top of that I toss and turn from one side to the other all night. I’m right at 6’ and about 264 lbs. Really enjoy a night in the Blackbird XLT much better than even a cot with a air mattress in my 10x10 Cabela’s lodge tent. Everyone’s has different back problems but do whatever works for you. Just keep going it outside. Thanks. 👍🏕🇨🇱

[@Fishpig65]

I just purchased the hammock hot tent from Pomoly. As a side sleeper, I use the Clark TX 270( Now made by Dutchware) for a great nights sleep.

[@Andrew-uy5gh]

Just going over some of your back videos and came across this one. I quite like the Idea of Hammock camping, like you I like to sleep on my side, there is a hammock made by Haven that will allow you to sleep in any position you like it, it might be worth having a look. That paired with the Lone Wolf I think would be the perfect match.

[@MichaelRoyDuckworth]

Maybe try a portaledge. They are expensive. Or construct your own.

[@9blasphemer]

I can sleep on my side in my hammock. It is all in the hang angle. You want to have a little slack in the hammock. Then lay in the hammock at an angle to the hammock connection points. This will allow you to lay on your side. You also want to look up, "structural Ridgeline." It's the Ridgeline that really helps.

[@flatbrokefrank6482]

Your torturing us Richard lamb cutlets in mango and honey - handsome - and an idyllic permission to boot - Stay Safe

[@randomhato]

Given the history behind this shelter, I'm really glad to see it being used. Lonewolf 902 had a great idea, just glad it is being utilised properly, and not by the other company. Awesome as always Richard, probs my favourite channel.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Mr Hato!! 😉

[@jeremygoldberg2952]

Great video. I just ordered the pomoly lone wolf hammock shelter and can't wait to try it out. If you are a side or stomach sleeper you need to try a bridge hammock. Both dutchwear and warbonnet make great brudge hammocks.

[@michaelmullins8655]

I have a hennesy asym zipped version which gives you more room to sleep diagonally which allows you to sleep flat. Probably the best sleep I've had in a hammock. Although it is a bit on the pricey side. Enjoy your content and that permission bit of ground you can use is great 👍

[@Paul.Douglas]

Some fine cuisine! We don't even cook that well in our full size RV. But that does give me ideas.

[@utubeu8129]

Wow, you eat good while camping, you made me so hungry I had to stop the vid and make something to eat. Lol!!

[@MHarenArt]

I guess what I want to know is how is it anyones business how much you eat?? Look at the hammock used in the lost lakes you tube videos. Its wide and flat by AMOK I think . thanks for sharing Richard . Cheers!

[@LipsMalloy]

I would love for you to review the Haven Safari or Haven XL flat lay hammock. I want to get this tent if it will fit the Haven.

[@davidr4310]

them lamb chops looked good enough to eat 😛👍

[@RichardOutdoors]

So I did!!

[@mattvaughan9808]

Hi Richard, just watching your videos again and noticed a weird creature at 05:19 running behind a tree. Just wondering what this is? 😂

[@davefarrell4911]

Thanks for the heads up on the hammock, I also can't sleep on my back longer then an hour. When I do I hurt nice

[@jennyleef1775]

Another enjoyable video. Thankyou. I am pleased you don't edit out the real things as it allows the rest of us that do some silly things to know that we are not alone.

[@terrypatterson1481]

Nice one Richard- I do not like sleeping in a hammock either. I prefer a lot of space and tent camping in a two man tent gives me that freedom.

[@eddiek0507]

Great Video, We've had some nice unusual October weather just recently, so it's been great for this sort of thing. I found quite a lot of that Chicken In The Woods growing only just yesterday. The breakfast looked really tasty. I love the meals that you prepare...🙂👍

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Eddie!

[@GraysOutdoors]

Love that camp spot bathe stream. Nice for a summer dip. Great setup. ATB. Grays

[@leeallen5153]

research how to use a structural ridge line and sleep diagonally / use a small pillow. I had a hard time but with set up practice i have been sleeping better in the hammock

[@tonywoollcombe1799]

Oh forgot very enjoyable video once again… good for the soul cheers

[@paulseeman6481]

Charming video, Richard. I’m a side sleeper too and sleep kind of diagonally across the hammock with my sleep pad, which allows me to sleep on my side? Might be worth a try?

[@RichardOutdoors]

I’ll give it a go! Thanks.

[@gee3883]

Just found your channel brilliant content.

[@HDvroom10]

Tr y the Norwegian Amok Draumr😴👍

[@275simon]

If you watch lost lakes he uses a amok hammock, they look amazing

[@leeallen5153]

WOW what a beautiful camp site!!!!

[@ChristopherAdrien-s6o]

You're the first person I've seen that does this as I do

[@countryside_guy]

I jokingly spoke of hot tarps a long time ago and here we are now, they're a thing!

[@beau4170]

I see you made enough grub for you and the camera man

[@larrybarker8987]

Amok or Haven are lay flat hammocks

[@LundysWildcampBushcraft]

A very interesting set up Richard what size is it looks like a 4x4 atvb jimmy 😎😎👍👍

[@RichardOutdoors]

Hi. I haven’t measured it but I expect the specs will be on the website.

[@blindhowlingdrunk]

Brilliant! I could have listened to the rain on your tarp for hours.

[@paganoutdoors3193]

Cracking video Richard, as a hammock camper, that tarp looks awesome, especially using the woodstove 👌, sometimes, depending on the size of your hammock, you can feel bunched up, calf ache, especially if laying on your back, I don't have a dd hammock, but all mine are 3x2 mtr hammocks, I can get a diagonal lay, laying on my back is bliss (I have spinal injuries), but I can also lay on my sides, with the diagonal lay, if you look up a book 'The ultimate hang', a brilliant book, that I'm sure will help you, that food was amazing, 5 chops!, lol, really enjoy your videos, good health and safe travels my friend, cheers craig

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks. Craig!

[@richardhunt920]

Thanks Richardgood vid

[@tannenherz]

High, a very interesting tarp. Kindly Fiete

[@brixham20]

Great as always Richard. 👌

[@jays4979]

Richard Lovely meal but potatoes (long cooking) before lamb chops (fast cooking) next time right?

[@RichardOutdoors]

Nope. Chops need to rest just like a steak - at least for as long as they were cooked. Just gave them a quick minute’s blast but really that wasn’t needed. Would always do it this way around!

[@ScottOwens28]

Haven Tents. It's a flat lay.

[@floydsmith2296]

Great quality video. I appreciate all that you do. But, between the hot tarp and that Titanium stove, you're right at US $1000. That's way out of my ballpark. I can dream of it for some day! Also, I wish you'd have mentioned the specs on that tarp as well. You undoubtedly parked very near your camping site. The hot tarp is 12 lbs! Your underquilt and top quilt appeared to be filled with down as well. You're a blessed man to have the top of the line gear. All in all, I'll bet the price of all your gear is pushing US $3000. I'm not criticizing. Again, your videos are top notch. But watching your videos is like watching a Victoria's Secret fashion show. I see a whole bunch of something I covet but have no prayer of possessing. Be well!

[@RichardOutdoors]

Hi Floyd. I’m sorry you feel that way about my videos. It’s not my intent to make you jealous in any way - purely to share my love of the outdoors. Everything is relative. Should I write to Top Gear and ask them to refrain from reviewing anything from the Ferrari collection? Should I write to the latest property program and ask them to stick to houses with less than 3 beds? I have been given a fair amount of the kit I use as gifts - case in point; my underquilt was a handmade gift from a good friend. I’d just sit back and enjoy the content in the spirit is offered. All the best Richard. PS. It wasn’t a review and I left the Pomoly site address in the description box so people could get the specs from there.

[@anneli1735]

Got a hammock stand at home to get used to it - there my hammock hangs not that high but about 140 cm off ground at both ends - when sitting in it it‘s about 45 cm height with feet on ground. Sleeping on my side I do need the width of the hammock not less than 140 cm (I’m 165 cm / about 62 kg) and NO pillow. Avoiding the „banana position“ but „diagonal“ with head placed on the nearby side of the hammock to my nose and feet opposite (often a bit „outside“). Looks like it works meanwhile since I don’t have any problems with my back anymore - I had before in a „regular bed“ 😁 🤔 Guess your problems are caused by an inappropriate setup of the hammock and not by „the hammock itself“ 😉 Maybe you want to try different setups at home during daytime to find your comfy one ☺️

[@RichardOutdoors]

Good ideas. Thanks!

[@tooncrier]

Cracking content Richard, as usual! How many lamb chops should I have...as many as fit in the pan :-)

[@RichardOutdoors]

Exactly!

[@keithandrews8637]

Brilliant video 📹👏

[@annebeginn2034]

Oh my giddy aunt Richard that was a close welly call 😳. The Amok draumr 5.0 incorporates an insulated pad allowing you to sleep on your side or belly. It can also give a seated position with the pull of a few straps. This is on my wish list 😁. Cracking video again 😉

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks. Good info!

[@christopherloft8240]

Your channel is the best by a country mile. Excuse the pun. Brilliant content and photography. A very genuine guy.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Christopher!

[@RobCanada]

I can side sleep in a hammock, it's just about spending time setting it up and using a ridge line for me. Perhaps check out Shug, he was one of the guys I watched when I first started playing with hammocks and I'm naturally a side sleeper. The ridge line (whoopie sling) allows you to have slack in the hammock so you can go diagonal without the banana hammock effect. This is Shug and it shows a few versions of side sleeping kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXm3iWd7Z5h_h9k I hope it helps.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Excellent. Thanks Rob!

[@justme2640]

Great vid again I really enjoy ur be upbeat energy. A really think u need a bigger plate tho as u couldn’t get the 5 lamb chops on it no one should suffer like that lol 😂. I would recommend Hennessy hammocks they allow options on size throughout their range which makes for a fantastic sleeep sure u wud know about these already brilliant for side sleeping. Anyway thanks 🙏

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks. I’ll look!

[@nealbe]

Geat video Richard, very jealous of your land permission, there are hard to come by where I am. Hope you have found use for the keyring light. I saw you had the singer sowing machine in one of your videos can I ask if you rate it, I need a reliable machine for modding my lavvu. Hope your well Richard

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Neal. Really appreciated. Not had the chance to use the sewing machine much yet but really pleased with the results so far, especially for a semi-industrial machine at that price! I bought a set of lights too - unused as yet. So much kit, so little time!! All the best.

[@MikeEvansUK]

No idea if this is useful in a camping hammock. I did some travelling in Brazil in the '80s . On boats on the Amazon and in many hostels you are expected to sling your own hammock. I discovered that one does not sleep aligned with the long axis of the fabric - but at an angle to it - maybe 30 degrees. In the hammock I had that made the sleeping position virtually flat rather than banana shaped, and meant that one could sleep in a side position.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Worth a try. Thanks!

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

What a meal! 😋😘 Hey, Richard. Check out the Lost Lakes channel on KZbin. They use the Amok hammock system and love it.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Will do!

[@mattyp80]

I have that hammock and it has a dual layered bottom which you can slide a sleep mat in which gives a bit more support and will enable you to lie on your side more easily (still on a diagonal)! I also use a Trekology style inflatable pillow which makes things much more comfortable!

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks. Yep I use that pillow. Just didn’t show it!

[@maxboonkittypoison]

I can solve a great deal of your sleeping problem. Just put a stick on the head end from side to side or horizontal and one at the other side. This way your bed wil flatten out really nice. And you wil be able to sleep on your side. If you have the right tension on the hammock. You could also put a wool blanket in the middle of the hammock and make it even more strait. There are more things you can do. Like y loop the hammock strings and tie your hammock between 4 trees instead of two. Greetings,, Kitty.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Great tip!

[@ScottOwens28]

What Backpack are using on this trip? Great video. 💪👍👌

[@RichardOutdoors]

Hi. It’s the Osprey Aether 70

[@cliffspicer6555]

This may be a strange question, but I have never used a hot tent before. Does that large opening for the chimney (seems way too big to me) not cause issues with the rain coming in directly and from sliding down the the roof?

[@RichardOutdoors]

Never had a problem.

[@tarmavaughan7578]

Try not eating anything sweet from afternoon on. That and caffeine will keep me from sleeping. I’ve mentioned before but love the scenery with the creek. You took some great shots of it. Thank you. Food you cooked looked delish too.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Tarma!

[@neilthompson5217]

That permission you have is idyllic, it must be hard to come back to the real world sometimes.

[@RichardOutdoors]

You're right there!

[@ECWoodlandCrafts]

A great little adventure there despite the welly melting. I'm not a back sleeper myself so invested in a Amok hammock about 6 years ago and it's great for front and side sleeping.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Hi Ed. Yes, looked at them but the perpendicular aspect doesn’t lend itself to the hot tarp.

[@ECWoodlandCrafts]

@@RichardOutdoors maybe there's a gap in the market for a hot tent Amok tarp 😉

[@johnramsell1109]

Brilliant video Richard as usual and some wonderful food cooked

[@RichardOutdoors]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@HelenNetoken]

Nice camp and your food look divine and cooked beautifully!

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks so much!

[@tonywoollcombe1799]

Richard, I felt your pain….. briefly😊 Many years ago in the days of my youth, I was toasting my toes in an ingle nook fire place….. Minutes went by, followed by a smell of burning rubber….. my desert boots were smouldering! And melting..God, did I dance the light fantastic…🤡

[@RichardOutdoors]

Ouch!

[@tonywoollcombe1799]

The soles stuck to the brick floor…made a peeling sound as I tried to walk…. And dance 💃

[@kevinwalker1973]

Another excellent video Richard 👍🏼 try looking up a Warbonnet Ridgerunner Bridge Hammock ! Several videos on then out there, Shug as usual gives excellent info on them. They give you a flat lay which allows side sleeping

[@perrymarc2162]

Hello Richard, another great video. Could I ask where did you get your cooking utensil roll from? Thanks Perry

[@RichardOutdoors]

Of course. My friend Ginge. He’s not on youtube but search for Ginger Scarff on Instagram. 👍

[@perrymarc2162]

👍

[@SupaHamsta]

Definitely a good video, but let's just go through the crib sheet and double check it has all the requirements for a GREAT Richard Outdoors video. Forgotten vital piece of equipment (mic)... check. Self inflicted, easily avoided injury (burnt foot)... check. Double thumbs up ending... check. Looks great to me RO.

[@Vormulac1]

I'm so jealous, that food looks terrific! :)

[@RichardOutdoors]

It really is!

[@mickybetts7957]

Great video Richard! .. I'm also a sidesleeper and struggle for hours to fall asleep in my hammock. But I do sidesleep in it. Pillow gives me the most trouble plus needing a pee repeatedly. Sleeping next to babbling brook doesn't help! However, I recently tried my DD travel hammock as a bivvy in my DD tarp as a tarp tent. I don't own a mattress though so again, hard to sleep.

[@jacquelinesherlock2274]

Bless you, burning your foot 😂😂😂. You're so funny Richard haha! Thanks for the video, thoroughly enjoyed as usual and I want to eat all of the food! 😁

[@Curlew-Corner]

I don't know. Your Great Glen canoe trail pal Matt (Adventure is Made) set his tarp on fire and now you've burned your welly and foot!. Great set up though, Richard, but not without its hazards. Food looked good too. I've not used the Telemark yet - hope to get away touring next year with it. Best wishes,

[@alexanderstohle]

A little tip. Roll the flap that covers the hole for the pipe the other way around. The velcro is less exposed. Especially in the winter with ice forming. And it looks better ;-)

[@oldprentonian7767]

I do manage to successfully side-sleep in the foetal position in a hammock. I do put quite a bit of tension in the hammock though so it doesn't 'drop' as much.

[@roosterneck2158]

you probably have tried this already, but sleep diagonally in the hammock rather than in direct line with the hanging lines. your back might fair better, especially if the hammock is well supported in the first place. great video as always.

[@herbsmith6871]

That was some great looking food my friend! Very nice camp my friend 🤠

[@scottcorrigan6730]

That looked a cozy set up! And so hungry now, great video usual 👍🏻

[@DesdomonaChild]

Nice meal. Looked big enough for you and the kids ! They're lucky having a dad who's a good cook. Nice vlog.

[@mphigham1963]

Loved the video Richard, seems ages since your last camp on your own. Cheers Pal !

[@thebikepackingadventurer]

My first ever hammock arrives today. Being 6’3 I am not overly optimistic it will work well, but got to give it a try, even if I only keep it for daytime relaxation 🤞🏻

[@paulharding1621]

Did you really eat all those delicious chops or were they for your hidden camera operator? 😀

[@RichardOutdoors]

All mine. No one else there. 👍

[@paulharding1621]

Yummy, I’ve not slept much in a hammock , only a couple of times using one supplied by my nephew, I think I prefer sleeping on the ground with a stuffed poncho as a mattress or better still a wooden framed bushcraft cot ( I’m no expert) have a frame set up in my “permission woodland” tarp over, very comfortable. Got the idea from “Corporals Corner”, certainly not a new concept.

[@ronnyhuysmans4120]

:)

[@lindseybaker7055]

What an absolute fabulous watch, your sense of humour is a breath of fresh air, thank you x

[@williamt2718]

Great video Richard, looks like a great shelter.

[@oddmanout98]

Great Video Richard, thanks for sharing it. You'have probably read all the sleeping suggestions by now, (sorry, bit late in watching this one) but I'm a side sleeper and love my hammock. I also have a DD Frontline. I do need to susspend it quite tightly with very little sag. Sleep slightly on the diagonal and often manage 6 or 7 hours of sleep, natural nightime call of nature in there too! The ultimate hange is a great book, but my advice would be to try different setup tensions. The less sag the better for me anyway. Let me know if my suggestion works for you, I'd be pleased to hear back. Many thanks, all the best. Paul.

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Paul. I’ll look into it!

[@tuftywhite9628]

Great 'Richard' video again. Love the intentional mistakes you do, this episode, melting the welly. Have you seen the Draumr 5.0 hammock? They are a perpendicular hammock, but look really good. May be worth a look.

[@RichardOutdoors]

I’ll take a look. Thanks!

[@sarahardy8131]

Have you tried a bridge hammock, Richard? You should be able to get completely flat meaning you can sleep on your side. I'm a side sleeper too, and if I were to buy a hammock, it would be a bridge for sure!

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks for the tip!

[@melclarke4186]

Great video Richard. I really like your permission next to the stream, brilliant spot. The tarp looks really good and with the titanium Woodburner makes for a cosy shelter. Cheers

[@RichardOutdoors]

Thanks Mel!
