Tarp and bivvi camping in very strong wind and rain.

50 mph winds !! Tarp and bivy camping in very strong winds in a storm with no name .Wild weather camping is very challenging it's wet, muddy, and windy.
my equipment I used was Oex bush pro tarp, British army bivvi, outdoor vitals sleeping pad, Onewind down hammock quilt, British army bivvi.

This is my favourite camping channel. Every video is different and interesting, you're so creative mate!

[@Pori9392]

Love these videos. Not a fan of tent camping… for many reasons but tarp and bivi is an incredibly minimal camp, and when you can be happy, warm and safe with that kind of gear is a nice feeling.

[@BarbaraMorrey-p2u]

Hi Dan love your video,s.just want to know are you and Emma married. When I saw you both on the hotel one. I am 65 year old lady. I am just buying camping gear slowly. You have enspired me..I am hoping to go camping next year. Thanks Barbara

[@Bennybushcraft]

Great video mate be careful of falling trees in that wind lol as ya know....and your right there's nothing like camping in conditions like that it tests our skills and patience 😊..see you on the next one brother

[@arcticradio]

THE only channel that doesn’t have a video title of ‘camping in my Hilleberg or Durston’…a down-to-earth normal guy passionate about camping. Well done you are one of only 3 camping channels I subscribe to now. The others are all pretentious numpties who need to bang on about their expensive tent. Please don’t ever change your channel is great 👍

[@oshiforb7445]

Hi Dan, I have ca Kelly Kettle, on one trip I couldn't find anything dry to burn, however I always carry a trangia stove. I thought I'd give it a try to see if it worked. It worked great it sounded like a bloody jet engine when I fired it up, I also actually cooked the meals on it for three kids and my wife. The trangia burner is now part of the Kelly Kettle kit.

[@siemadademsi5533]

Nice vid, Dan. Hope you made sure to check for widow makers? Maybe mention it in your next vid! Especially if you're planning on camping out again during these awful gales hitting parts of the UK.

[@robg521]

12:06, burn your lips off drinking from that cup…. You can get neoprene wraps that fit around the lip of your steel or titanium mugs, [so your lips touch the neoprene when drinking]

[@DustyOldPanda]

Great video. Love watching these from my cozy comfy bed :) Quite relaxing.

[@thomasmacias5032]

Thank you Dan for taking me along with you 4:00 am here in Northern California grab me a coffee ☕️ and watch English Woodsman thank you 🙏 again 💙🇺🇸🏕️

[@redsorgum]

Greetings from Southern California ✌️👏👏👏

Used to live in Cottonwood, drove all over the states for work, greetings from Utah!

[@carolley7092]

Great way to spend a Sunday morning watching Dan in the woods ❤ i love the wind and rain it tugs at my soul. Lol watching you eat spicey food by the time you get the hic ups my lip starts to sweat and im not even eating it 😂😂😂 keep doing what your doing stay safe looking forward to your next video

[@patrickspillane4581]

What better way Dan to check out your camping gear good old storm wind and rain let's hope more sponsors get involved in your channel as you deserve every penny.excllent video as always 👍⚓☘️🇮🇪

[@mrwareing4368]

great video :) love the kettle, i would recommend with the tarp to have it grounded as you created a wind tunnel with the big gap at the back :) keep up the great work

[@dorsetcyclist]

In the 5 years I lived rough in a tent 2015-2020 freezing temperatures were ok, you can keep warm, rain difficult to dry clothes out if you had a hike back to base regardless of waterproofs. High winds worst for anxiety in the tent in a woodland. You could hear branches/ trees breaking but had no idea if they were the ones that would crash down on top of you.

[@markratliff1407]

Respect! You embraced a lot of suck on this trip. Rain,cold,wind and hot noodles! Seems like spicy noodles and you don’t mix. Maybe just do chicken flavor from now on. lol

[@scottsmith4710]

English Dan, you proved again that you are the man buddy! Awesome video!👍

[@shaungillingham4689]

Well done Dan, come rain or shine our woodsman is there. Rough conditions, but you seemed to have done a good job with the tarp, perhaps a tent under tarp would have been better, a little more comfortable. Also you can dig a small trench around your camp to drain off the water. You do a great job talking to the camera, I hate silent videos! Have a very happy Christmas to you & family.

[@sandraarmstrong1414]

rather you than me making camp in all that wet muck and rain im a chilly mortal at the best of times and have two hot water bottles at night mind you im a old girl at 68 lol but i love watching you do the camping in the wet hope you dont wake up floating in the morning that seems to be a handy gadget not sen one of those before another reason ehy i like watching your channel your allways showing us new things so much stuff that different since i went camping in the 70s till covidd struck

[@raynarnslr1966]

I carry a pack off cheap wet wipes to give myself a bit of a wash. You reminded me of my granddaughter when she face planted in the mud, she laughed so much! Great camp, looking forward to more. Stay safe Dan the man atvb 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🦊

[@mickybetts7957]

Dan, wondering does a tarp block all the wind fully? Or does some still get through the fabric? Great muddy camp!

[@NovaScotiaSouthShore]

Love your channel Dan, thanks for taking me along on that windy and rainy adventure.

[@blueroomstudio9652]

Another great video Dan, enjoyed the tarp setup in the strong wind and wet... brave... anyone can use a tent... the eco fire starters are a great idea.... just a little tip for you and subscribers if you are using a hood to stop it falling over your eyes.... wear a baseball cap, keeps hood under control.... PS always notice you open food packs with your teeth Lol... small non locking neck knife? if legal in UK....

[@daviddunn-breaknbadretrddad]

Lol, you just need a lightweight grill for over the top to cook with, utilizing the flame as it boils the water... great share!

[@ChrisWoutdoors]

Hi Dan, nice one mate for getting out,, I wimped out this weekend and its looks like I made the right decision...lol I use the same firelighters from Poundland, also the firelogs are good too I empty the shelf when I go in there and get questioned about camping.. They think I'm mad too... Nice one mate loving your channel, four years subbed... ATB Chris.

[@SwedishChef1977]

Respect for getting out in that weather, Dan! 💪 Great video as always, keep up the good work!

[@alicegamble6145]

Great video. I admire you for going out in that weather.

[@darrenstevens3549]

Brilliant dan great video and bloody windy or what

[@jerrymerritt5698]

Camping on a budget, how else to do it. Not to drop on brands but Morrisons have a variety of budget cup-a-soups. These work well at 2 am when a coffee just will not warm the body.

[@angelaknisely-marpole7679]

Excellent and well done for getting out in that wind!

[@maz7031]

I quite like the wind,but that mud would be a nightmare,we get the koka noodles a lot but the chicken flavour,,im a complete spice wimp and i absolutely love a good thunder and lightning storm.

[@greenbunnyinabongo7299]

I’d be worried about random wild animals coming and sniffing my face while I sleep if I slept like that. Does it ever happen?

[@IvanDP1967]

Awesome camp EW, thanks for sharing. Only thing I hate about the bad weather camps is all the cleaning and drying when you get home.

[@davidortiz4808]

My brother your like me. I love the worst weather possible as long as you’re prepared for that trip. Love the enthusiasm. 👍😎

[@rogerbond7811]

The bung on the kelly kettle is so you can carry it full of water, I've got a full size one.

[@TheGardener54uk]

Good video Dan should of brought some a bag of sticks with you . Kelly kettle Awsome 💚👍

[@redsorgum]

Good morning from California. Falls…..always keeping it real, Dan. It would be interesting to see if the fire starter you’re using, would work in a wood gasification stove…✌️🇺🇸🇬🇧✌️

[@boxiedog]

That mess tin set looks as though it might work with flameless heat pads that react with water to heat. I use a flameless cook set quite a lot where you can't really light a fire. Great for pasta meals, etc.

[@jameshollyoak8230]

Mate you don’t talk to much , I could not sleep in that set up , wild animals could get in or am I being a southern wuss

[@Mark-ir9gl]

Love your videos so relaxing like ASMR keep up the good work mate 👍 🍻

[@JTRavers69]

Love the Kelly Kettle style of boiling water.. my favourite way of boiling the water for the tea and coffee. Used it for years fishing on the river bank. Might try get another one in the new year sales. My last one fell into the River Shannon 😢

[@IndridCold-ug9fh]

Hey Dan. I'd love to see you use the tent tarp setup if you decide to use a tarp again. It's enclosed on 3 sides. I haven't been out in years but you're giving me the camping bug again.

[@kenmorrison1725]

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 wonder if the kettle would work if you put a alcohol stove in the bottom

[@lorraineannheron3515]

You're one of the only guys I watch and feel calmed, you're honest down to earth no drama and real, keep going love your videos, happy Christmas and New year 🎉🎉🎉

[@terencephillips6833]

I came on here to hear you talking Dan so don’t apologise for talking to much .

Bit of chicken tikka ready atrips in those noodles and some sweetcorn , delicious

You look like you were making mud pies Dan, new mike sounds great.

[@angelanicholls9647]

Hats off to you Dan for camping out in that atrocious weather. 🌧 💧 I bet you wish you were in a ⛺️ tent. No hat tonight, 🥶 🧊 i see you had your favorite hot 🔥 noodles 😂😂

Awesome video Dan. I enjoyed every minute of that. 😊

[@jayjay2129]

You don't talk too much! It would be strange if it was a silent vid!!! I don't camp, I'm too old now, but I enjoy watching you!

Child's play. At the top of Arenig Fawr with wind much more powerful than this, I had to become part of the structure to stop my tarp blowing away 🤣.

[@stephenmarshall1286]

Hi Dan, very brave to camp out in wind, it sorts the men from the boys. I was out this weekend (7,8,9,10 Dec) the wind was gusting 45-50. I was in a wood with old oak and beech trees and branches were falling all around. It was a little like Russian Roulette lol. Keep these videos going, they are very entertaining and informative.

Merry Christmas Dan

[@dananorth895]

Just picked up the same hammock liner myself,but haven't used it yet. Have 4-5 days of rain coming in the Pacific N.W. and I'm itching to get out in the woods. I've tried the noodle bowls with hot seseme oil, and it's a mistake to dump the whole seasoning pack in, more like 1/4 to 1/3. I found out what happens the following day. Lol I usually pick up the 24 pack cases of diferent flavors, chicken, pork, beef, shrimp and repack in 1 gal ziplocks so they dont go stale. 1 pack w/japanese toasted seseme oil (to taste) some flaked red pepper, a small clove of garlic. I'll often add freeze dried meat and mixed vegetables I've re-vacuum packed as well. Perfect Ramen! With freezedried goods you can pack a surprizing amount/variety of goods (1-2 weeks easy) just add herbs/spices, rice, beans, flour, noodles/pasta etc.

[@janvanoverdijk8116]

Hey Dan, RESPECT voor je day-out haha ... ik ga ECHT niet met zulk weer naar buiten , tis dat de honden eruit moeten maar anders ... pffff grtz. Janneman ...

[@wayout6092]

All my kit is crap, except for my bcb crusader stove thing and mug, which I use for Sorba Noodles from Morrisons, my tip to all pot noodle eaters - Sorba noodles.

[@davt8615]

Good stuff as always mate 👍, ultimate outdoors got cracking deals on OEX tents at the minute, picked the phoxx 1 up for 49 quid, then another 15% off so was like £41 buzzing 😊

[@OldNavajoTricks]

Keep well and warm marra!

[@missbabybiker]

Great video Dan. Apologies though, I did laugh with you when you had your wee mishap 😂. I've camped out overnight under a tarp like that..but in August. Just me and my dog. No sleeping bag, mat or bivvy, but I kept my waterproofs on and it did rain during the night but dog and I kept dry under my tarp (3 x 3 DD Tarp). What are the night time temperatures like just now where you are ? I'm in South East Scotland and we're getting night temps down to - 4ish degrees just now. You don't talk too much 😊

[@dezrigby6649]

I love my scary podcasts but with people telling their true stories like Monsters among us, strange familiars, Jim Harold's campfire, the confessionals and into the fray plus Sasquatch chronicles if you like the hairy guy.... Couldn't find Uncanny Dan but they're all good for scares at bedtime 😬

[@donnawheeldon9880]

How was yours trip thanks for the post card 😅

[@RichardCooper-p7b]

Greetings from Michigan Dan! Your videos are so wonderful to watch., Please keep them coming. You got me hooked on bivy, tarp camping, and so i ordered a Mil-tec bivy bag to try out with my sleeping bag, and tarp. I just hope i can cook as well as you do, ha!

[@erikseanwolff5341]

I am the person watching this at the end of July so it is almost 8 months later but you speaking about Christmas just makes me love the video even more. This is how I relax and go to sleep because I live vicariously through you because the idea of being out in the rain or the snow and being sheltered and comfortable it’s just so relaxing to me

[@jerrycombs801]

Just when i think your videos can't get better, they do every time, thanks again for fabulous content, keep em coming, Jerry from New York

[@PhilB-v6b]

Loving that camp... ❤😂 My ideal place happy chrimbo bro. Have a good un see you on your next camp.

[@cypresscentersecurity1412]

Maybe get a tent with inflatable pontoons! And don't forget the larger tent stake to keep the camp anchored! (LOL) Hope your family does well this Christmas, thanks.

[@richardbridge6198]

love your videos! most other channels people have to use £1000 hilleberg tents and £600 arcteryx jackets, but you keep it real and show that you dont need to spend thousands of pounds to have a good time camping! keep it coming! and go go full sachet bombay bad boy pot noodle :0)

[@sherrybagley]

Expert level noodles: Open one end of the bag, remove the seasoning packet, then break the dry noodles in the bag a few times. They rehydrate faster and you don't have to slurp mile long noodles...unless you're into that kind of thing. LOL
