Stealth Camping Behind Billboard

Things finally fell into place and I found my dream stealth camping billboard. I've been searching for years and finally found the perfect one to camp behind. I made it back from the ill-fated trip to the coast, I only got half way there before the floods washed out all the highways connecting the interior to the coast. I will have to make another camping trip as soon as things are back to normal and roads are reopened.

To get rumbled a motorist driving at probably 70mph about 100 metres away would have to spot a green hammock under a green tarp behind a camo net in dense forest through a 1 metre gap. All while driving looking at the road in front of them not looking for anything by the sign. After all that they would then have to decide to stop and do something about it. You're fine Steve!

I'm a drifter. About 4 years ago, I was in Idaho Falls, ID (beautiful town). It was early March, so the nights were still fairly cold. I was there a little over two weeks. The entire time, I camped under a large evergreen (spruce, I think... ?), the branches went all the way to the ground. But, just beyond the outer branches, closer to the trunk, it was fairly open and spacious. I spent about 30 minutes chopping down dead branches from the interior, and clearing out debris, both of which I used to camouflage myself. I was about 20 feet from a busy downtown road. This video reminded me if that experience. I had a little concealed fire in a coffee can, a tarp to keep the drizzling rain, falling leaves and bird poo off me... lol. There was a train track behind me, and must have been a yard nearby. Each morning the same guy would walk the track, and we'd talk for a few minutes. Share stories about life on the road.

Steve is a professional. Don't try this at home kids.

[@punishedmatteson7108]

9 minutes? Dang bro you're supposed to be STEALTHY

[@wendysue9042]

I am in the states so I know there is no way that Steve is around but I find myself checking out Billboards as we travel down the interstate highways, just seeing if they would meet Steve's approval. Never looked at billboard signs that way before but I will forever now!

[@sketcharmslong6289]

Steve I know you get it a lot but you're one of the good ones mate. Thanks buddy

[@brianfergus839]

I love how you made the billboard message “ironic” : )

[@cjwolfenden]

Steve, thank you so much for posting your video. I'm sorry that things are tough right now. We're all rooting for you and thank you so much for the HOURS of amazing entertainment. You and crazy neighbour just light up my screen. :)

[@campingwithsteve]

Thank you so much!

[@brianmarshall3931]

I did this some years ago on the University grounds in Vancouver... camped right behind the "No Camping" sign. Never got bothered...

[@cansofcoke]

it feels like you're there with friends because you are there with friends :) We feel the same way when we watch Steve :)

I have no intentions of camping outside a site but these videos are always cozy to watch while bundled up and warm. Cheers from Ontario!

[@Sakratic]

Steve - you break my heart man! You're a great dude! I'm homeless, sleeping in my car in CT, I've gotten out of my situation in the past, but as I'm older, I find it more and more difficult to get back in touch with society (losing faith) but watching you, ask your followers to defer donating to you, has immediately brought me back into realizing that there has to be other real, caring, good hearted people like yourself that REALLY DO care, and are not just saying it to impress on social media just! I was beginning to dislike my fellow human because, of how I'm treated just asking for a 10¢, not even a quarter, like how dare I ask for a handout. I hate that I have to, but nobody will hire me, when I have one set of clothes, can't shower, and just use my car as shelter. It doesn't start, because I don't have gas. But enough about me! I just want you to know Steve, that you saved me from giving up, you showed me, that if I continue to try, there's still people like yourself out there to enjoy the rest of my life with. Thank Steve!!! I don't know you but, just also want to say I send you all my respect and love, man! YOU are a tremendous individual!

[@punishedmatteson7108]

I'm in a similar situation or was until a month ago. My elderly parents asked me to come stay with them and help them but I was staying in a tent in a stealthy spot on some public land. In my town there are a few free pantries so I never worried about food but it can get kinda depressing sometimes nonetheless. Hang in there, brother. I'll be praying for you.

What part of CT are you in? I'm originally from New Haven. Now I'm in upstate NY. I'm hoping to figure out some way to help. If you PM me with any information so I can send you a package I can at least send you some clothes. Maybe I can figure out something to improve your situation.

[@Sakratic]

@@gundoctor4312 hey man, appreciate your reply. Would have pm you but I couldn't figure out how to or find any info on your KZbin channel. I'm currently in the Stamford area so Lower Fairfield county. Are you on any other social media platforms which allows PMs?

[@mickymaninthehouse]

I can honestly say, Steve is the most genuine person I've seen.

[@zedooncadhz]

These are so peaceful to watch before bed

[@kelly171a]

Regular dude camping and cooking, thanks Steve. Love your videos!!

[@yankeecarolyn376]

What you want to do is sauté the cabbage in the butter, garlic and thyme before you add the broth. Add the broth last actually. It will make a big difference I just figured out that i can cut beef jerky up smaller and soften it in boiling water, then add rice and spices and you get like a fried rice that's really tastey. Esp if you add curry powder and green onion but really, just terryaki or soy sauce is fine

[@three6ohchris]

Lol, imagine being an employee at one of the stores that Steve parked his car at, and you're on your break and sitting in your car when all of the sudden some guy comes running out of the darkness to a car... He grabs something, then turns and goes sprinting back into the darkness. 😂😂 Haha, just makes me laugh thinking about it. Glad you're safe and sound, Steve! Thank you for sharing this with us. Stay safe and warm out there!

[@jamespaul2587]

Lol... I was also thinking: what if the owner of the Golf parked near him was another stealth camper fighting for that sweet billboard location? ;)

[@mr_selfdestrukt]

As a BC boy myself (specifically Langley) I have family out in Abbotsford and Harrison whom I'm currently cut off from due to the floods, and I am deeply grateful for the words and help from you Steve. Strange times, and it's nice to see good people doing good things during them. Cheers.

I have been thinking about you all week Steve…so glad you are fine. Class move to ask people to donated to B.C relief funds! You are a very good person!

[@sdeiter3333]

You made my day. After being in a hospital for 5 hours then a 4 hour drive home I needed this. Thank you so much and God bless.

[@SavageAudits]

I’m glad that you made it home! Merry Christmas!

[@dalecarr5445]

Steve, this video is shows you are a genuinely good person. Donating the proceeds when you can use the money is selfless and just exemplifies how nice of a person you are. I’ll keep watching as long as you make the videos.

[@idahospudgirlidahospudgirl4998]

I feel like Steve’s caused a ton of urban legends, “Mom you see that Wendigo run across the highway?”

[@angelaflint5780]

Great video Steve! I have been homeless many times since 1995; after ending up in a hospital; violins playing now. So, I wish I would have seen this before all those times I was homeless. I was laughed at, made fun of, etc. My favorite street camping item was a tarp. I didn't have a car. And the tarp folded nicely in my back pack. I could stay clean with the tarp underneathe me while trying to sleep with one eye open. Hardest part of it was having to use a ladies room around 3 a.m. YOUR videos are heart felt! THANK YOU👍

[@gins8781]

It is so good of you to draw attention to the plight of those who are enduring hardship. These are very difficult times. More and more people are having a hard time dealing with the rapidly changing world we share. Some use social media to draw attention to themselves and seek only profit and /or self gratification. It would be easy to succumb to the allure of popularity. But you seem to have maintained solid footing in reality and a love of your fellow man. Thank you Steve.

[@grominwithrob1339]

Steve, I appreciate that you wish to help others reach step one. Helping others get to step two means we can enjoy it that much more.

[@menotyou9331]

I got myself in a recovery house due to more than enough alcohol for one guy, so now I don't have to stealth camp with the hammock for the winter. Thanks Steve, you've taught me a few things.

[@doctorteethomega]

Just recently started watching. This is something special. Educational, entertaining, and a great balance of subversive and ethical. I'll keep watching. May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, And rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand. And hand you a step 2.

Yay!! A Camping with Steve video!! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Steve!! You need to put out a cookbook!!

[@cybersal7]

I agree but it couldn’t possibly include measurements. A glug of wine means empty the whole bottle and nothing is ever prepared in the same way twice. But just like all his videos the meals couldn’t be any better and look delicious. Maybe just remind us of your menus and leave rest the Up to us. Love to you and the gang from Texas.

[@swnorcraft7971]

Love the multi use Bic lighter, nonchalantly used to pop the top of a Step 2. Steve definitely has it figured out. I can't put my finger on it, but there is something compelling about watching a grown man stealth camp in some of the most unlikely places....... Putting myself in Steve's place, I feel the adrenaline of the moment. His easy demeanor and endless knowledge of his subject make for some of the best entertainment on You Tube. Thanks, Steve.

[@ToiOraLAT]

You r one of a kind Steve. I remember in NYC the first morning i realised I had done it, and it was ok. I had slept rough and not had to pay rent. If I am honest it was a huge weight off my shoulders, a huge relief realising it. It wasn't THAT bad -- If u find an ok spot. Greetings from N.Z.

[@meowschwitz666]

I’m a new subscriber. I subscribed on Sunday actually, it has been one of the roughest weeks of my life while also the most fulfilling. Your videos really helped take my mind off of things & “hunker down” as best I can. I found it ironic how in your latest video that you also mention you’ve been going through it as well, I’m happy to see we’re both doing just fine.
