[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks for the comments! It seems I said «kerosene» when I meant to say alchohol burner. Sorry!

[@janejohnson5488]

I dated an alcohol burner once. lol

[@gabrielm1362]

Hello Bjorn ! what about this tent now?

[@katweirdman9817]

My reason that you are my favorite youtube person is because of how genuine and wholesome you are and the welcoming feeling that you bring to my screen. Keep on trucking my friend

[@kylehenze8370]

I respect how he uses just ordinary simple equipment,when he's probably got enough money to buy the biggest and most expensive things, but he keeps it simple and gets so much satisfaction from just being out in nature. Best wishes to you Bjorn and thank you for sharing

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thank you, Kyle! And my best wishes to you as well.

[@jimmycusetownprepardness578]

I think that its great your showing us the way you do things and the way you set up for enjoyment and these times are a way for us to get to know you better in my opinion you seem like a really good person

[@Woodswalker1965]

Good morning Bjorn, the gear looks great. A smaller lighter stove that works with the Trangia is the Firebox Nano. It comes in titanium but I own the stainless steel version. I did a review last year if you're interested. Take care!

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, Wade. I will certainly take a look at that video!

[@MrInsaint]

Thanks a lot sir🙏 for sharing this nice video👍 - My kids will also thank you very much for kicking my ass out in the forest five times this Easter🤪

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Haha, I'm sorry!

[@MrInsaint]

@@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen do not be sorry sir. I really need it😁💨

[@jotunnNordvegr4425]

Spring and summer. We have a nice time ahead of us now, Bjørn. I have to buy a Bush Box soon. Have a great day and thank you for sharing with us.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, my friend!

[@jamesfontenot6148]

Man that is a awesome collapsible stove cool cup as well

[@MichaelR58]

Bjorn, thanks for sharing and bringing us along. Ticks are already stirring in Oklahoma as well, I've already pulled 2 out and 3 crawlers on me . Atb

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Oh, that's too bad! I really don't like them, and now they seem to multiply every year.

[@rogerroop1613]

I have to say Bjorn, I really like the crossover been modern bushcraft with your thoughts on Viking bushcraft. Its refreshing.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thank you, Roger!

[@richarddanforth1564]

Like the new set up, not a big fan of tents but I do like that one, I like how open it is in the front, I use just a tarp myself but I do see pro's to that self-standing tent, and you are right the lighter the load the better

[@rumpelstiltskin9768]

I've got a tent like that. My wife can hear my cursing as I set it up. You were smart (or polite) to overlay music tracks as you set up your tent.

[@dervishosman9599]

That hat is iconic.

[@Turnbull62]

Small Lixada stove is perfect to use with a Trangia burner. The same stove also burns twigs etc, when allowed. I use the Lixada stove with a boot polish tin and a coil of stove rope inside. This allows me to use meths or ethanol fluid. Without the rope I can use ethanol gel or solid fuel tabs. All round versatility. Many thanks for all the good work you do. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@SeaCatFl]

Bjorn, Great video as always. I have played with all kinds of stoves over the years including the Canister Stoves, the Trangia's and their copies, Wood Stoves etc. While all of the are good in their own way I always seem to go back to the SVEA 123. It just works in all conditions I have used it in. Those Thermo Cells are great. I use them here in Bug Central. (Southern Florida) and I haven't been bitten since I started using them.

[@thomasmusso1147]

Yep .. the SVEA 123 is a great stove 👍. I have an Optimus 8R (uses the same burner mechanism as the SVEA). 45 years young and with only recent a graphite packing replacement during this period, still going strong 😊.

[@seand9889]

I love these gear videos! I’m always trying to improve my own bug-out bag. Thank you for sharing Bjorn, and keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, Sean!

[@njord3983]

Im blessed by Oden. For some reason, ticks don't like me at all. I have had quite a few crawling on me, but not once have I been bitten by one.

[@wadejustanamerican1201]

My like button stayed! Good morning have a great time.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Glad to hear that!!!

[@dodgybodger3124]

Thanks Bjorn. That was a great post as always. Relaxes my soul. ✌

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, my friend!

[@randylj4730]

How fun! 2 Years ago when camping was busier even here. Hopefully summer of 2021 will provide opportunities. The well known ‘Boondocker’ Bob Wells, says ‘A Tent Holds a Space’! I always keep one. This one looks similar to my NTK Colorado (3-4 person). Excellent quality but I’m looking for a car camping tent where I can stand up inside. I like your beautiful Norwegian forests and the cool Rock slab for tenting. An REI inflatable pad would definitely add comfort! 😊 Thank You for a look ‘back’ before the ‘crazy times’!

[@GrumpyGrunt]

I have the same problem with hammocks; I am a restless sleeper and also sleep on my stomach. I ran across a company in Norway called Amok and just got one of their Draumr XL models which allows for a 90 degree flat lay to accomodate stomach sleepers. So far, I love it and find it quite comfortable. It isn't cheap, but no good sleep system seems to be these days.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I have three of those... I tested them a couple of years ago, you'll find a video about it on this channel. But I have the same problem with them, I have to admit.

[@MrStrangelymade]

Those sort of tents/shelters are advertised and sold over here in the UK as fishing shelters. designed for overnight carp fishermen. They do special chair/beds for them as well with built in sleeping bags.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, good to know!

[@BRoweofKY]

Very interesting that you use a Thermacell! I had no idea mosquitos were so bad in your land. Where I live, EVERY outdoorsman owns one and uses it. You check that you have your Thermacell before you check on food here. Blue Skies to you!

[@danenglishoutside443]

I have a Trangia also, I don't tend to take it backpacking that much but I like taking it for an outing in the woods because it's quiet. Hope you manage to get lots this year.Cheers.

[@charlesharris8805]

Good and interesting video as always. Tusen takk og ha en fantastisk dag.

[@margomaloney6016]

A fun video hearing your opinion on your new gear. Thanks for sharing!

[@anvilbrunner.2013]

En fin dag for den typen husly. Veldig hyggelige omgivlser.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Takk!

[@Blackopsmechanic338]

Great video and advice, keep it up and have a great day

[@TomokosEnterprize]

Don't forget he basics of basics like good bug dope and lots of it eh, LOL. Meningitis from tics is as serious a situation up here. I have seen 2 deaths here from a good friends families. Who cares if it is sticky and smelly. Use it or die eh. Staying out from under the trees is important as well as they will drop down on you. I will often light a big piece of a bug coil a long time before tucking in. In summer it is so important to tend our fires. We have already had some small ones here in BC. I was smoked in all last summer. Vis at about a km. Ick on that. That rock sure needs a bunch of padding for my old bones eh. Great to see you bud. Take care and hope to see you soon friend

[@fortythreenorth2518]

Weve had a great summer in Canada. No fire bans where I live in Ontario and not too much rain either.

[@kravist518]

Another great video Bjorn, would be cool to see a Viking companion video to see what was carried and how it was used 👍🏼

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I am planning for such a video, but there is a lot of preparation going into it.

[@marcusfridh8489]

the only issue i have with selfstanding singlewalled tents are the condensation. personally i prefer a closedconfigurated tarp. but i have cheep tent too from lidl a crivit lightweight hiker tent. only costed 200 sek when i bought it.

[@daveyjoweaver5183]

A very nice set up Bjorn! I really like that self standing tent. This is last years video I missed before so I wonder how dry it will be this year, 2020? We shall see and I'm looking forward to your videos! Thank You Kindly! Many Wonderful Paths to Travel in Norway! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

[@cincoy3679]

I take a iron pot. It’s not that big. But it work for everything. When it get hot it stays hot. But I’m old and most don’t even know what I’m talking about. Are even know they have small iron pot.

[@mtncrow4x4]

Ahh the good times.

[@FishyPOL]

Hi Bjorn, your ideas are endless and always great! I love the stove, I think I’m going to have to get myself one. However, I think maybe we should invest in high quality tents and look after them instead of buying multiple cheap ones. It’s important to respect nature’s resources! Maybe a canvas tent is a solution? Thank you for another great video, as always you’re a great steward to show us ways of respecting nature while enjoying it. I’m hoping to pick up your book while I’m in Oslo :) Till the next video

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I absolutely agree. Some stuff gets edited out, this tent I also plan to give my kids for use when they are going away for an overnighter with friends, school etc and chances are it might get handled a bit rough.

[@FishyPOL]

Bjorn Andreas Bull-Hansen Good idea Bjorn, kids are always rough with equipment. I certainly was!

[@randyrussell5830]

Keep it up.I enjoy your videos.I hope many others do.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thanks, Randy!

[@Helliconia54]

the beauty of a self supporting tent is that on a hard solid surface you can use rocks or sand bag instead of pegs.Even Water containers too

[@Braapncamp]

Modern Vikings use modern stuff! ...but like to practice autentic vikinglife now and then 😁👍🏻

[@halfpotatohalfunicorn9009]

And due to our superior Trade skill it comes cheap XD!

[@jeremynorman5329]

Interesting Bjorn, thank you. We too have had little rain and no lying snow in this part of the UK over winter, so no doubt there will be a water ration...i.e no hosepipes before long. The lighting of fires is left to people's common sense in the main here. Always a dangerous thing as common sense seems to be in short supply nowadays

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Yes, short supply. I agree on that one!

[@jessiehorne]

Bjørn as of April 25 2019 12:48 pm 400 NOK (Norwegian Krones) is 43.15 US dollars

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Thank you!

[@SpartanEDSWarrior]

Nice set up

[@johanvandersandt8904]

Interesting ideas Bjorn... I really do have to shave of a few kilos from my bug out bag (34kg) and Ill try a few of these and see how they work!

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

That is a heavy bag, in my opinion! But then again, I don't know how far you're planning to walk or how used you are to carry a heavy backpack.

[@johanvandersandt8904]

@@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen Not that used to it honestly but at the very least it has to keep me alive for a while in case things go bad in SA... And that possibility is very real.

[@Helliconia54]

you would be better using an Esbit folding stove when using that metho stove.Brings the billy closer to the flame plus the esbit can be used with its esbit solid fuel,holding your trangia alcohol stove OR twigs

[@jonathanwittmer7976]

Bjorn have you been hot tenting before? that's my favorite way to camp

[@MrJRW1]

This comment was interesting to me. What is “hot tenting”? I will have to look it up and find out.

[@berndf.aus.n.a.d.w]

For my Trangia-Burner i'm using the Esbit Triangle Stand. It works great and weights a little bit more than nothing. And it's the right Distance between the Burner and the Pot above. A Windshield maybe will also an Idea. Finally I Hope my English does hurt Nobody.

[@berndf.aus.n.a.d.w]

Thanks a lot!

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I agree, your English is great. Thanks for the advice as well.

[@tomirvung4015]

Hei! Fine videoer! Sjekk ut «ikea hobostove» med tanke på «ovnen». :)

[@northernraven2939]

I could hear the children in the distance. Are you near the school luvoo? Good tips on the ticks, where I’m from in Tennessee they are bad but I havnt had to deal with any in Colorado.

[@misterhobson]

They're always bad here in Michigan. It wasn't like this when I was a kid. We've always had them but I never saw one until about 15 years ago. Been getting worse ever since.

[@sjohnson4882]

May and June are tick times in Colorado. Their numbers vary from year to year depending on the moisture that year (I think).

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I was near the school itself, actually.

[@malcolmsmith9232]

Bjorn, a question about your country's fire ban. I guess you can't burn wood in open fires, but as you're using a meths burner in a firebox, can you not use wood in a firebox? What are the terms of the fire ban? PS We call your tent a 'beach shelter', literally something to keep the wind and sun off you on a visit to the seaside!

[@kbjerke]

What good is a folding camp stove if you can't do a pig roast, or a side of beef on it!!?? (Just kidding.) Thanks again, Bjorn, for an enjoyable video. Karl

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I agree, Karl!

[@bert7651]

So even you guys have to deal with ticks. How did our ancestors manage? Are there more these days?

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

Hilleberg Soulo or a Coleman Phad X3 Or maybe a Vango Banshee In that order 🙏🏻 👍🏻

[@NoName-t7e]

"....And its a single wall tält, er tent this one". What make of tent is that? I have thought about getting something similar. Is there room for your backpack and mattress?

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Can't remember the make, but yes, there is room.

[@thesoulbearer]

I'm 186 centimetres tall. I guess it'll be too short for me. It looks great, though. Seems to serve its purpose quite well.

[@janejohnson5488]

you should carve and sell those coffee mugs.

[@WESTMARSHIKEANDOUTDOORS]

Bra film. Vad väger tältet? 👍

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

I,6 kgs. So it's not a lightweighter for a single walled tent.

[@emiljrgensen2649]

Du burde starte å lage mer løftevideor igjen.

[@DebbieBuckland]

how about sleeping diagonal in it. might give you an extra bit of room

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Not in this one, I'm afraid. It's widest at the entrance.

[@sirforsa]

Welcome to condensation hell, brother.

[@mrsorepaws9146]

Something missing here, though...where's the bacon??!? Looks like it's not even bacon cheese! Seriously though: been considering getting something like that stove to complement mt awesome firebowl, but haven't decided on which of the different variants from TBS yet. Speaking of which: we do need a more dedicated TBS like shop here in Norway. At least, I haven't found one yet

[@logya]

Hi Bjorn , hope you will avoid ticks , they are a real pain in the a... here avoid them is barely impossible . Peace

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Yes, they seem to multiply every year. Something is not right.

[@logya]

@@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen yes i agree , they already have a nasty impact on pets here , and it's worst years after years ... forest are to be avoid if you are not well protected , and even with awareness and protections you have to inspect yourself closely each day after being in one .... nasty bugs ...lol

[@michaelfitzell2741]

What happens when there is a strong wind?

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Then I end up in the North Sea!

[@mikaelpetersson922]

Using an alcohol stove is camping for me. Don't you need to tie the tent to the ground? It looks like it would blow away in a small breeze.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Then I wake up in the North Sea!

[@levitan71]

nå googlet jeg etter telt :)

[@JohnGault2398]

I am 185cm and I have to sleep corner to corner in most tents.

[@fiddibelow]

That's the average height in Norway our tents are longer

[@JohnGault2398]

It is not an out of ordinary height in North America but most tents here are 6 feet (180cm)

[@SpaghettiToaster]

I liked this channel better when its focus was on actual camping and bushcraft like this video, instead of politics and social issues.

[@francinepadmadewi4842]

You talk too much ,

[@mybluebelly]

Boring.

[@hfrendal5374]

I will write in English for your viewers. First of all Kerosin is parafin not alcohol, guess you know but I mention it for the viewers. For only 400 kroner I might have bought that tent for a festival were I am expected to ruin it, but honestly its a horrible tent, and way to short for you. As long as your body touches the sides its too short and in rain you will get a vet sleeping bag. I use a similar stove with a trangia burner just like you. The fuel problem you experienced can happen, nothing to be ashamed about since you still could burn wood (if there was no fire ban), the thing is that candles is a very good thing to keep in the woods, I bought 4 cheap short candles that I put inside the stove and they can boil water, they last for 8-10 hours and got them for 20 kroner at a cheap store. One candle alone brings out the same amount of heat as one person, so with you and one candle you send out the same amount of heat as 2 persons and in a small tent like that you should do fine. I dont use sleeping bags during summer only a army woolen blanket, it dont burn well and gives you heat even if vet. Its very multi purpose since you can build shelters with it or wear it as a cape on them cold days. The ticks my doctor handled with a shot of vaccine, but I do use a bug net over my hammock to keep the other flying assholes away. Keep up the good work Sir.
