What I thought would be a lovely and relaxing wild camping experience high above the Pacific Ocean in Big Sur turned into quite the adventure. There were a few moments during the wee hours of the morning where I contemplated if my little tent would hold up and keep me dry. Luckily, my Big Agnes Fly Creek Ultralight 2 person tent lived up to the hype. Thank you camping gods! ;) Enjoy the adventure!!!

What an adventurous and daring experience! Wild camping on Big Sur's stormy cliff overlooking the Pacific must have been both thrilling and awe-inspiring. The power of nature in such conditions is humbling. Thanks for sharing this exciting journey with us!

Yes it was! Am still impressed my 5+ year old Big Agnes held up with no leaks.

Epic! I absolutely loved this! Up until this date, I've never camped near the ocean like that, but I've wanted to for a long time. That looked like a really fun adventure, and it was fun to listen to the story from your new friend.

Hey Scott I’m in the Bay and have done some Big Sur but never heard of this spot. Looking forward to trying it out! Was there a permit needed for camping there?

Awesome pitch site Scott. Good too to see that your tent made it through without any issues. Reminiscent of a WildBeare Claire adventure.

Went to Big Sur earlier in the year. So sick to see the Big Sur station at the beginning of the year. When did you make it out there if you don’t mind me asking? My buddies and I made it out there around March and we caught a storm as well.

hi scott, i live in the bay area and was always discouraged to camp in Big Sur by the complex and crowded reservation system at Big Sur. M curious, was this a regular campsite reservation that you long booked online or do they allow backpacking with wilderness permits or something?

Golly what an experience for you! I loved the video and the most recent Yosemite video. Can’t wait to watch more trips of yours. Also, Samuel seems like a good soul. It is always special when you can experience a new place on your own and be surprised with a kind person to make it that much more memorable. Cheers! How was the beer you had in this video? You didn’t give us a review 😂

Awesome hiking and camping spot, hope you had a wonderful time Scott, one suggestion - while showing the entire panoramic view - it was repeatedly done and going a fit faster, i think if its slow while trying to show the entire landscape that would be really great, Keep Hiking Bro!

What an adventure!!! I got caught in the rain last year when I was camping at Big Sur Statepark campground and I had to leave the campground in the middle of the night because everything was soaked but what an adventure! I’m glad you are safe. I am planning to backpack Big Sur, what is the name of this route you took? Happy Trails!

Nice video, looked like a great spot to camp. Have you ever done Cone Peak? If not, I'd highly recommend it, 5000 feet above the coastline
