Video Transcription

okay so welcome folks just a little overnighter you want to test out this tent it's the Euro hike backpacker DLX tent just got it that's the first time so one of the main things why we decide to get a tent is we're going to be doing a couple of well maybe three short-term canoe trips and with all the bugs nowadays that contain all kinds of diseases I think it's a good choice that or you know your typical hammock but I'm a ground dweller I've slept in a hammock I had having for five years and now I can't any longer so it's like to get a tent but what I was looking for or after was the Scorpion to buy snug pack and great great tent the only problem it's too expensive for my wallet so I found something that looks pretty much the same very similar but five to six times lower concerning the price and I'm not gonna make her a whole review about this tent because well I'm not good in tent reviews I'm still gonna give you a couple of specs okay so quick specs like you see it right now it's ten by five by three and a half okay I'm not gonna go into centimeters because I have no idea what it is of course this front part here is not part of the tent where you sleep so you have about seven feet and three feet by three and any way to put your stuff once it's packed because I wanted something I could carry of course it's not the lightest of packs but it's not so bad

it weighs about six or seven pounds if I'm not mistaken and in the bag it's about

well I'd say two feet long by six to eight inches in diameter so that's not so bad

it's okay so I've had that so this is a two-man tent

now my wife and I are average average size so it's fine now if you try and put you know two guys you know six feet two or six foot to 250 pounds it's not gonna work but for one of those will be perfect so I'll do real quickly I'll show you the outside okay so because it was my first time it took maybe 20 25 minutes but I'm pretty sure when you get used to it you know 10-15 minutes you should be able to set this up so it's actually pretty simple fly sheet first you know like typical tents you got these two poles one there one in the back and you have to tie downs in front and two in the back and then all you need to do is take down both corners on this side and stake down in front of the door one there and one there and it's done you're all set

show you a view of the back they've got these air pockets here and very easy to just put the velcro there just a little bit of air there's one there and there's one on both sides one on this side and on the other side and you got cute little windows on both sides so what you can do you can set up to other steaks or one steak to you know leave one door open but I didn't put any so when you do close the door or tighten on itself also when you open it up you can roll it and use the toggles on both sides to leave it open so I'll open it up for you just to show you inside quickly okay so the two doors are open just take a little toggle there and tie this one so you could close it you could just leave one there's a few setups any way you can do so over here is about three feet so you can install you know put your backpacks leave your boots most your gear in there it has a screen obviously the inside is all by toggles very simple to hook up and there's six on both sides or both ends right at the bottom over there so there you start from the back and you come this way and it's fairly easy to do okay now we put a ground sheet here you know just to save on tent a little bit you have a nice thin screen nothing you'll get into that and if it gets a little cold you can still close that up from the inside and you know to stop the air from coming in and what I love is that it's white you can see well in it now I'm not going to open this up just because there's a lot of bugs right now look if I just go between the two you're gonna see what I mean yeah well we don't want that inside so that's the setup our heads gonna be this way that's how it's supposed to be anyway and look it's pretty wide plenty of room for to coop you know I haven't used it yet so I can't really say but for the price I paid I think it's gonna do the job cuz one big thing that attracted me to this tent is the price you can get it on Amazon for about fifty nine bucks u.s. and some people you know ship free in the US so I think for that price that's worth it or it's going to be worth it and I'm gonna do the job for me so anyway I'll just leave the link in the description if that is it's time to say goodnight see in the morning

well good morning folks beautiful morning it is slept well

concerning the tent well for the price you know it's a good quality even the zippers excellent stuff like a baby the only negative thing I could bring to this tent when we're both lying down ready to sleep there's plenty of room there's even about oh I'd say maybe a foot still between us

so we could you know put our clothes or whatever but the problem is is when we're sitting down it could be a little tough because it's not quite high enough so that's a little bit of a pain so when your two best thing is for one to get in get all set up right in the sleeping bag and then the next one comes in but for one guy perfect plenty of room got a little bit chilly last night I wasn't my sleeping bag but I wasn't covered completely but the worse 3:00 in the morning I have to get in completely because it was cold but you know we're still in June so these are normal nights until July or August comes five in the morning got up at 4:30 that's about my time 4:30 5 o'clock mr. Sun is just starting to come up let me tell you one thing I don't think there's anything like it when you sleep just under a tarp that's the way to go maybe not in the summer but early spring fall and the bugs are dormant nothing like it

lots of rule we're an open-air it's just great skies are blue birds are singing today I got the some exploration to do and have a project

one of my friends had a heart attack I'm not a heart attack but uh what do you call that in French it saw CV you know blood clot went to his brain and so he was half paralyzed but it started to come back slowly and as you guys know I'm on private owned land there's about 200 acres and it's the owner that had that so I went to visit him in the hospital and they said that you're gonna make it out you'll be walking again and maybe not perfectly but certainly with a cane at least so I promise to make him a cane walking

out of his own woods that's one of my projects today

so this is the beginning of a I found the branch with a dead branch hanging on to other branches that falls from the top and anyway that's the beginning it's a roundup roundup stop stuff stuff gosh I need another coffee maybe so you know I didn't when I can't find it round so you can grab of course this is gonna be all nice rounded off there and grab and have a still need to do some carving there that gives an idea this man is not too tall about five feet so round this off to put a plug in here sound it all down

Epson is gonna be not bad still a little bit of work to do though turn it out anyway should be a special cane something you won't see at the store all perfectly round and the reason why I I mentioned this to him is to give him a gold once this is done I'll bring it to the hospital that's okay you need to get out with this okay so it's about that time when we are hungry and Josie will be cooking us a breakfast you got some and it's gonna be a healthy one two vegetables eggs and I guess I'm toast ride joseline

okay so first she put some butter she's already got some chopped let me get up here vegetable and she's gonna just slowly stir-fry them I guess right and then dump the eggs and there's some place left on the grill or Josie's toast can live without toast right Josie oh yeah

you said you were cooking no no you said you were cooking and they didn't want me to bother you pepper and salt I'll take care of the toes okay so toast is almost ready of course these lovely pieces of goodness terrify a little bit and then the Josie's gonna dump the egg that we already prepared and it spikes up in a bottle good good hey I've been doing this for centuries I can see that don't put too much butter good for you I'm not setting a good example but this look good yep okay so wait a little bit let's do that other toast again another one that you can't put too much butter you can put too much butter in one but the rest you should be careful you know too much and the other ones you can put a lot but when it comes to these here you just put a little bit oh man I can smell that smells good all right well she's practically done now good for the hell yes that cheese it for the hell hey your hands this one what that one okay I agree

hey let's eat okay

you guys know that nothing's beat okay what kind of really got over coals little cyber bugger so this video was not supposed to be long I firmly enjoy your time satisfied with the 10 Josey use it as a sole attention perfect plenty of place sleep comfortably put your gear inside leave your boots out and compartment outside there and two is very doable but it's a little you know a little bit more annoying but doable okay so let's enjoy this and we are truly happy that you joined us on this one again now remember please go up whenever you can this is Mike and take care what would you do for someone you love oh yeah

usual arm for coming okay now my breakfast now that it's mixed up with all the bugs on ground protein
