Hey friends in this episode I hike into a lake and set up my Tarp between a few big stumps. I cook dinner over a fire and enjoy my time outdoors.
An old smashed up truck there. Hey friends, Jordan here, West Coast Wild Campers. Thanks for tuning
in to another episode. I'm just hiking into a lake right now. I've got some good food. I got
my chair uh going here and my table and we'll get going on a fire and possibly a coffee or a tea.
I didn't bring a tent. I'm just doing a tarp camp right on the water here. It's a beautiful spot.
Took me a little bit longer than I'd like to admit to get this tarp up
because I couldn't uh decide what kind of configuration I wanted. I put it up like in
three different ways before I came to the conclusion of this one but that's the beauty
of camping is you can't go wrong right as long as you get it set up. I had fun. I was gonna do like
just a simple little but then I went lengthwise and it's a beauty spot. I got lots of space here.
It's nice and flat. Good good coverage. This is a big tarp. This is a 10 by 12 AquaQuest.
Really good. Really nice. Really cozy spot. I've got a big coal bank behind me. I've got a stump
there. I've got stumps here. It's really well protected. I really like this spot.
This is beauty. I'll get a fire going right down there and probably some of the heat will
come this way. It'll be really nice. I didn't bring a stove so I'm gonna be doing all my cooking
on the fire. Thanks for tuning in folks. It's been a busy one but I've been getting out as much as I
can. I love camping. I really appreciate everybody that watches my videos. It means the world to me
and Tammy. I love filming these videos. I love camping. I love reading all the comments.
I pretty much just love everything about it you know. It's what I enjoy doing and
it's what I'm gonna do. If you don't like these videos well don't watch them you know.
That's uh that's simple. Watch whatever you want to watch. I'm getting more comfortable uh talking
to the camera so I'll probably ramble on from time to time. I'm gonna relax for a minute and
fire going here. I'm gonna use a full cake this time for the first time. There's a bunch of dry
sticks under the stump here that I'm collecting. Yeah I walked, I hiked in from just down there and
I got a beauty little spot here. Got my chair there, my table, got my fire pit right there
out looking the lake. I'm gonna sleep just under the tarp tonight. I found this log under a stump
That's nice. Nothing like a warm drink on a cool night. Yeah there's uh people down the lake. They
were just shooting off some fireworks. That was pretty cool. I didn't get to turn the camera on
on time but by the time I got to the camera the fireworks were over. Yeah I'm just chilling under
my tarp keeping warm. Got a new um wool fleece sweater here and uh yeah I got my rain gear off
just hanging up in the back here. It's a really nice night. It's not really raining but I we're under a
tree so we're getting lots of drips from the tree. I'm just hanging out relaxing. Watched a couple
videos on my phone and gonna drink this tea and then I'm gonna get going on some dinner. I got a
looking forward to it. Got some beans and chili and steak. Possibly mashed potatoes.
Gonna be a gooder. Thanks for coming along folks. If you haven't already you should smash that

with some oil and cut some uh sunflower oil here. Cooking now. Got a can of beans I'm gonna mix in
there with a can of steg chili. It's gonna be a doozy.
Oh supper's ready. Got steak in there. I got beans. Well I'm gonna say a quick prayer and I'm gonna
eat this and I'll get back to you. Thanks for tuning in. Cheers friends. Yeah that's really good.
Yeah it's been a pretty warm night. Wet but warm. Lots of fog out. Total cloud over.
Seven degrees right now. It's gonna get down to four overnight. It's um just after seven
in the evening. It's not even that late but it got dark at like five o'clock four thirty.
Just hung my food. I'm quite a ways away from my camp.
I'll come back for it in the morning. Yeah I just walked down the beach quite a ways.
Beautiful night. That's the water there. It's so clear you can't even really see it.
Yeah we're just on a little hike back to my truck. Probably about a two kilometer
hike. Not bad at all. Well this is Jordan signing off. See you on the next epic adventure. Peace.
