    Favorite Camping Tips Video not on HF

    Hammock Forums has fantastic tips and tricks videos for hammocking and camping. I'm looking for some favorite links on camping and hammocking that may be posted off-world. Yeah, hard to believe there could be favorites that aren't HF, but I gotta ask.

    Hike It All has some great videos as well. Just wish they were podcasting again. I was just re-watching their 23 minute video on tying knots, earlier today.

    slow day at the office Tracy?

    Across the pond a fellow named Ray Mears has quite a following. Google on "Ray Mears videos" and you'll get enough to entertain and educate for a while.

    quite a sensible chap, Ray, and fun to listen to.

    lol! No, I'm working on a project that I don't like and need rewards every time I make progress! Plus there's only so many times I can watch your mug, Grizz!

    Thanks for the info!

    Another vote for the Hike It All guys. They were doing a very nice well organized podcast. Hope they get back to it

    I stumbled across this guy's vids a few weeks ago, he has some good info on making homemade gear and such. Seems like a really nice guy to boot.

    I second this one. This is the guy that got me started making my own gear.

    Another vote for the bushcrafting videos- Ray Mears and others. I've found some of the coolest tricks going by just trolling through bushcraft videos on youtube.
