TOUR OF THE ARCTIC - 1 year in the woods

[@tonyhoodlass1846]

Doing Great Becky those tents last for years

[@searcher2328]

Hey Becky, Searcher Here, Been subcribed to your channel and watching your video's for quite some time now, and I could never ever get tired of listening to you talk, I guess it's the accent, I could just sit and listen to you talk for hours and hours you always put a smile on my face, Keep doing what you do😊.

[@jimburns1666]

I love your and your dad's trips to the Artic they are just so magical and cozy looking, I rewatch them about once a week not to mention I love to camp. Am 68 and have camped since I was 2 but an auto accident makes it almost impossible for me to do it any more. Keep the vids coming !

[@StoutProper]

Such a wholesome, honest person. What a gal

[@butchbinion1560]

Good for you. ✌️👊

[@owenmullarkey1911]

Just thought I seen you changing clothes at home, you have grown up from your earlier bushcraft videos..Mozzies will be biting soon ,love the snow and winter. Xxx

[@skyblue2636]

The best tent I've ever seen. Beautiful.🇨🇦😊👍

[@akknight1971]

back watching you again. took some time off the web for a bit while my mum was ill and in the hospital. seeing your videos reminds me of the beauty we still have in this world. can't wait until the snow is gone up here in Alaska and I can hit the woods. glad you're still making vids. very enjoyable and educational. stay smiling and drive in.

Great movie, greetings from the forest and have a good weekend! 🌳🌲😁

[@NyctophileXIII]

I love the waffling on! It's a great part of your charm! :)

[@chrisrobinson9332]

Once again another great video.. and after a long day at wrk its always a pleasure to sit back n listen to you talk.. Thanks for the pick .e up...keep on keeping on

[@johndavidson6867]

Thank you Becky, seeing your set-up reminded me of my army life. On our training exercises, I would share the smaller version of that tent with my tech partner, yours was known as the ten man, mine was a five man. The liner made all the difference in livability, especially in winter. I have loved all the footage you have shared over the time I have followed you, thank you for the tremendous amount of time you devote to making my life much more enjoyable. Take care Becky, be safe and have a most wonderful and enjoyable summer.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing John :) take care

What I would give for having a place in the woods to live there, I used to be an indoor person, never wanted to go out, used to come back from work, and keep wasting time, playing games, watching movies, and do other things that now I know were a waste of time. Until lockdowns were forced, I never felt I was missing anything, but then months on furlough... Almost 24 hours at home, only going out shopping... It all had changed when I stumbled upon your channel... I guess if not you I would not dare even to try wild camping, I would be still sitting home unhappy with the situation... But then a miracle happened, and I began to actually love outdoors and I really did not like every single minute I was spending indoors... I decided to purchase camping gear and do my first wild camp, my very first wild camp was scary to the point I did not sleep all night (silly me there is nothing to be scared of in the UK) I just did not know that foxes or deer can make weird noises... I did research when back at home and realised there is nothing to worry about or be scared of. I then traveled quite a lot to Surrey Hills, to kind of "celebrate" my first wild camping adventures, as you mentioned it in your previous videos... So yeah, last year I have done a lot of wild camping trips and I guess I cannot live without it... I contracted covid though and it was quite lengthy process for me to recover, I have suffered all sort of symptoms that keept me away from camping now for months. I am recovering though, and hoping to be back to wild camping soon. You and your dad are so lucky to be able to live in the woods, I wish I had friends who own the woods or know someone kind to let me stay in one... I would have been so blessed. All for now I can do is watch your videos sharing your long term/permanent camp stories/videos.

[@weezerr2d283]

Thanks for the video…that is awesome 😎 and looks peaceful…stay safe and take care !!

[@robmetcalfe991]

Love your videos started watching when I was recovering from my triple bypass surgery you helped me through that watching your videos

[@BuckMckawtheotherone]

Hi Becky. Just a few thoughts for you to consider. Prospector wall tents of canvas are used by prospectors/geologists and trappers in Canada year-round, and for many, many years. They are made of canvas, and are subjected to the weather much as your first tent was. What they learned was to elevate the tent off the ground so that moisture did not accumulate long enough to mold the walls, and they also erected a fly on the roof. The fly suffered from rain and weather and UV light, but it protected the tent from deterioration. The fly is replaced, but that is cheaper than buying a new tent. Most prospectors have built elevated floor platforms on permanent camps which prevents the canvas wall from having direct contact with the damp ground. If you move your location often, the tentmust be allowed to dry before being folded up. Moisture is the greatest enemy of canvas, as is UV light. Waterproofing the canvas is also a routine done every year to retain impermeability in the canvas, especially at the seams. Hope this help.

[@farasha333]

Thank you for posting, and sharing your knowledge…. Goals ⛺️🏕

[@matthewvelo]

I'd love to have a piece of wilderness to set up a permanent camp like that! Great video Becky.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you Matthew

[@michaelatkinson8291]

Hi Becks. Nice to see your woods from above the canopy for a change. Agree with you about the benefits of being out in nature whether it's for a week or just a few hours xx

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you Michael!

[@jayhickman2436]

Another great video. That tent is amazing. You said it perfectly, home away from home. Take care and stay safe.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Power packs plus solar panels really seem to open up the world of forest living! You have your profession; people like I am 'need' to keep in touch with e-mail, KZbin Bushcraft, and e-books. 'Fairy Lights' spread the cheer around the inside with 'no worries' about battery power and no worries about open flames.

[@WhiteEyed87]

Thank you for sharing your amazing experience and the beauty of nature and the excitement of your life in nature! Very inspiring!

[@nigelmitchell5726]

Lovely gear Becky , looks so cosy 💓

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@TheChrissy1977]

That’s really good. Get a jack Russel or a cat. That will sort the mice and rats.

Hard to beat military surplus gear. Great drone footage!

LOL! For a minute I thought you somehow made it to the Arctic; you know, took a wrong turn up there in the Highlands. You're a sweetie, Becks. You make a bald man cry. 💋

wow yes becky that jackery is great i have heared about them and they would be handy because i was thinking of taking my hf set on my wild camps and that would be handy. im a licensed amateur radio operator and enjoy talking to other countries and i was thinking about taking my radio with me on wild camps lol🙂

[@GirlOutdoors]

Awesome!

[@Rogar0]

That was really interesting Becky, thank you for inviting us in to your Woodland Den! How wonderful to be able to utilise the private woodland, leaving your tent up and coming to it as a chalet home; no unwanted intrusions (except mice - lol)! I enjoyed it as I’m sure everyone else did too! Glad you’re able to hone your bushcrafting skills without undue attention! Enjoy! ⛺️👣🦌🐀👍😎

[@vibelife5133]

Check the army surplus stores for a GP small tent, basically the same thing with liner available.

[@Laylit]

I love that tent! And the powerbank too. Very cool stuff you‘ve got there! 😀👍

I remember when you set that tent up,you can't beat army surplus! A lot of my gear is army surplus,It's just as good if not better in some cases as name brand stuff and it's cheaper.You've got a great setup there,awesome bugout to just get away from it all! Take care! Love,hugs and peace!

hope you and your family are doing well keep the great videos going god bless 👍👍

[@andrewskowronski6283]

Your right those tents are very dark, cave like. Great for sleeping in, but hard to see ones bushcraft collection. Solution is build your own. Canvas tent or Tarp any color, Stove Jack Recipe...Welding Blanket, Mix Mineral Spirits with High Heat Silicone for caulking fire-places, apply mix to welding blanket both sides, cut stove pipe diameter and use JB Gasket Maker to finish exit hole for pipes. Take to awning/canvas/sail makers to sew jack into tent or tarp. Fun weekend project and will work with old tent flys, tarps, canvas with crapped out stove jacks. So far i have three home-made and use all year round. Sorry, to hear about your Fairy Lights.....Cheers!!

you mentioned about he lack of water sources in the wood .I remember you tapped a tree a while back .I know that can only be done when the sap is rising...now ..would you consider using the tapped water if the shtf as your source? I guess it is totally safe having been filtered by the tree?

[@neilbeckett5664]

Thanks Becky. I have one of these artic tents at school but nervous about putting it up on a permanant basis. Any tips for caring for it once it is up? Also do you get any problems with the mice and rats eating the material? Do you have to treat it for mould etc? Thanks again.

What do you do to try to deter the mice ? They are so destructive any tips would be useful.

Jackery must have handed out a lot of machines as they seem to be in EVERYONES videos.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Suburban homeowners can find that woodrats and mice come with the property. Poison baits are made that fit into T-shaped pipe traps. Rodents are curious about holes, especially along perimeters, and search them seriously. Baits are held in place so other species (like birds) don't get to the bait. Soon enough, there are fewer and fewer rodents to eat your electronics and nest in your fabrics.

[@pm1104]

Lovely ….I think you should get yourself a little cat to take to your tent to keep your mice at bay….!

[@blackstrobe83]

Do you rent or own some woodland? Could you explain? I’d like some land for a permanent set-up

Waffle away Becky, I love hearing people talk about things they're passionate about! I've heard that leaving cotton balls dabbed with peppermint oil around is a non-toxic way to keep mice away as they can't stand the smell. Might be worth trying to save another set of fairy lights!
