[@ceri1796]

Great little shelter thanks for sharing

[@HN76HikeSee]

Great video chap, Bamboo, what a great idea.

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thanks for watching my friend! Much appreciated, hope you’re well!

[@erikvels3606]

Nice idea! Thanks for bringing us along!

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thanks for watching Erik! Hope you and yours are well my friend!

[@peruvianrt]

Very cool idea for a shelter. Definitely going to use it. Cheers mate!

[@jymdiesel]

I use a snugpak navigator pal, it's pretty cheap and can get it in olive and it's square at the bottom so you can move your feet around abit👍

[@deanjohnwilliamson4787]

Great idea but the basha is inside out!! the shine rubber strip is ment2 go on the inside, that's how we was taught in the army!! keep up the good work

[@outsidertank]

So creative. 4pm Sundays is my favourite part of the week. thanks for the shout out buddy..

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

You’re very welcome brother, you definitely deserve it! Keep up the awesome work my friend!

[@jeremythornton3048]

You nailed it again. Keep up the awesome work.

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thank you Jeremy, always appreciated my friend, hope you’re doing well!

[@herbsmith6871]

Cool shelter build my friend 🤠

[@spyro1967]

Snugpack do some decent sleeping bags. Really like the way you set up the tarp .

[@kokopelau6954]

Woobie if it's warm, wool blanket if cooler, zero degree 0F sleeping bag if cold, with Woobie liner if needed. If I am really worried I take military 4pc, mss. That will take me much colder than I want to go.

[@baronedipiemonte3990]

Great video Mate. Bamboo isn't a readily found asset in the USA, but your video showed the feasibility of using something similar. Love that Euro surplus cookset/alky stove. Going to be getting both. Appears to be at least or more stable than the Esbit. I'm researching sleep systems... Right now I'm using a Czech surplus summer bag. It's "square" which I like because I'm a side sleeper, but it buttons, not zip. it's actually more practical as a blanket. This was my first hearing about the named storms you get. Not a hurricane, but rough anyway. I imagine you get power outages and such just like we do. Another enjoyable video. Look forward to them !

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

I do love the surplus gear, it’s the trade off, there’s going to be a little more weight but for the price, quality and longevity of the gear, you can’t go wrong! The storm was a bit rough but as you said, it wasn’t a hurricane. As soon as it gets windy or there’s a flake of snow, the UK is prone to shutting everything down, no public transport etc it’s crazy 😂 thanks for watching and for the input Barone, it’s always appreciated my friend, hope you’re doing well!

[@ronrover6594]

Carinthia G200 for 3 seasons and in case it might get a little too cold I carry a Dutch army poncho liner as a blanket in the sleeping bag.

[@apollo_baby_brown1393]

Great video as always.

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thank you Austin! Much appreciated my friend 👍

[@aabbushcraft]

Loved this video Mate👍

[@mooseyrambling5838]

Another excellent video my friend, nice little one night shelter set up. As for sleeping bags, mate where do you start ! I have 7 or 8 sleeping bags, all good for different times of year and for different kinds of trips. They can be a big investment so take your time and do plenty of research. No one bag can do the lot, having said that if you look at getting British army modular system, you can break it down as the year gets warmer or put it all together when its colder. As for weight and size, again this comes at a premium. I have recently got hold of the Sung pack Black Hawk 9, half the weight and size of an artic bag, and it seems to do a good job, not as roomy mind.. Around £ 110 depending where you shop. Keep them coming Big thumbs up dude.

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Hey Moosey! Absolutely agree with you, so many to choose from! The modular system completely slipped my mind! I appreciate the reminder! I’ve also been looking at some Snugpak bags, I’ll have to have a look at the Black Hawk 9 - if it’s half the weight and size, I’m definitely interested! Been having this trouble where I haven’t quite got the knack of packing the gear, I’m sure there’s an art to it but when I go out, the bag is just full to the brim even though it seems I haven’t got that much 😂. Thanks for your input Moosey, always appreciated my friend, hope you’re well 👍

[@Goblin_Mode]

Damn that looks comfortable as hell

[@treksntarps]

Liked the shelter mate. Good example of utilising the things in your environment. As for sleeping bags I've got the carinthia defense 4 for winter ( pricey , but i find it excellent) the snugpak softie elite 3 for when it's a bit nippy and the british army lightweight jungle bag for the rest of the time . If i was off to the hills in the cold probably save up for a down bag . Anyway take care bud , another good un 👍

[@treksntarps]

Also have the euro hike down hybrid . Which is good down to just above freezing , a bit nippy at -3 ( for me ) 👌

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Can’t beat a bit of Carinthia! I’ll definitely be looking to invest in some of their products eventually! A couple of people have suggested the snugpak softie elite 3 so I’ll have to check that out for sure! Thanks for your input my friend! Always appreciated and I hope you and yours are all well👍

[@treksntarps]

@@TreeDeepOutdoors All good ( mostly ) thanks mate . All the best fella 👌

[@squarebodyscottsdale4773]

I used to use a 0 degree Fahrenheit US army surplus sleeping bag. Always found it to be too hot and eventually switched to a 30 degree bag from my local outdoor supply store and found it more manageable and still keeps me warm but I live in a climate where cold weather is rare compared to where you're located. Its honestly very difficult to find the "right" sleeping bag and its mostly personal preferance. Keep up the good work you'll end up with the right kit, every trip you'll remember something you forgot the last time. Love the videos keep more coming!

[@chrislee-saunders1368]

Another great vid my friend.

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thank you Chris, really appreciate it. Hope you’re doing well sir!

[@rufusduck71]

Oex helois down sleeping bag . It's not for winter but at 750 grms it's light packs down very small and is fine from may till September imo.

[@CosmicCamper555]

Greetings fm NYC I like your style chill cool n smart

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment and support Rtora4! Love to you and yours in NYC, hope you’re all well over there!

[@noelwallace5257]

I got the British Army arctic bag… x3 , because my bug out bag 120 litres of it is for three people if the time comes to need it! At least with the arctic bag you’ll never be under prepared 👍🏻

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

That’s very true! Maybe it’s not the sleeping bag I need to change but the backpack instead! Thanks for your comment Noel!

[@mikepiper8799]

Arctic Bag :-)

[@oldhairpin]

I use the Snugpak Softie Expansion 4. In the hammock I use it as a blanket and was okay at -5°C a weeks ago with an Exped Synmat 7 LW and a Mylar car windscreen thingy underneath 👍

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Hey Ben! A few people have recommended Snugpak, definitely going to have to check them out! Thanks for the recommendation, very much appreciated my friend 👍

[@angelaranda4563]

👏👏👏

[@hedgebackharry8953]

Another great video bud, try the onetigris lightweight patrol down sleeping bag,in multi cam it takes you down to 0 degrees and it's light and packs down small

[@oilyrag37wizzard51]

Novel use of a basha,no bamboo by me tho,cant go wrong with a British army arctic bag.

[@keithfox9899]

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

I’m a big fan of surplus gear, the modular system completely slipped my mind so I appreciate the reminder Keith! Thanks for your comment my friend, very much appreciated sir 👍

[@nigelnash4733]

Just came across your vid's while searching for use's of the British army basha, top class, really enjoying them. I am searching for an original basha as I bought from a site that looked like they were selling them but they were copies, could you point me in the right direction, or maybe if anyone that reads this post could maybe help me out. Again, loving what you doing, good stuff.

[@denishennessy1318]

Great videos, any info on the oil burner set up.

[@dwaynefolsom1334]

You should've tied the opening a little more securely.

[@johnrutherford4042]

try the snugpak elite3 good system good vid mate keep up the good work

[@TreeDeepOutdoors]

Thanks for the suggestion John! I’ll check it out 👍

[@TerryWindell]

Great vid. Just curious...at time mark 13:36 minutes - what's the critter in the top upper left corner right at the edge of that tuft of grass? It swings it's head around on what looks like a long neck. Some type of large lizard indigenous to your neck of the woods?

[@kennethwilson8633]

Love your videos but not a fan of the new editing timeline thingy. Have fun camping and stay safe.
