Rainy Winter Camp - Parachute Dome Canopy - Sleeping Pod
Description
A Rainy Winter Camp was still enjoyable using my Parachute Canopy and Sleeping Pod. I set up camp in the dark and the rain, the deep snow was soggy. With proper gear most any situation can be pleasant. I used a Poncho as a hammock, snapped on an Under Quilt then our Survival Blanket wrapped around that, overhead our Canopy Bug Net kept the freezing rain off.

Video Transcription
well we've got rain it's it's a winter camp but it's temperatures in the mid 30s here and it's just pouring down rain the snow is just a soggy is it to me the nice thing really the nice thing being out here is I got my poncho and my fleece on I just I've spent a lot of time tonight just out milling around and stuff like that I don't care if it snows or rains or what it does really I mean I'm I'm able to keep everything off of me just fine you know so there's really no reason for me to be concerned about it particularly I'm enjoying things add little add little cool water from the top of the tarp there that's good very good I need to have a cool down just a tad still a little bit on the warm side I finally gave up on hanging around the fire cuz getting out and all that trying to get more firewood just was just wasn't worth it you know was the soggy soggy snow now I be better off just going to bed so I so I just bailed into here and that was really the that was a smart thing to do just go to bed and just have a good night's sleep so that's what I did what I've got over my head is are this is actually our what we call our canopy bug net only I had one made up without the bug net on it so it has the as the end panels triangular end panels in each end help block weather on the ends and then it's ten feet 10 feet long four feet wide and so it works really well for a hammock set up I mean it keep it it poured like absolutely crazy last night it just came now you know dry as a bone in here no problem at all and I can still see out and look around and all that sort of thing I have my underquilt snapped on underneath of course the under quilt is designed to go with the poncho when you set up as a hammock and so that helps keep me warm on the bottom I also have my large the PSB oh the large personal survival blanket and I attached it to the front side put it underneath underneath me and brought it up the back side and I let it lay down the front and all of our gear is designed to kind of go together so as you can see I get all the way inside of it
I'm totally inside everything's very breathable
I can breathe in here and the excess moisture vents right through my sleeping system to the outside but a bit at night I just flip it over like this and I mean that's all there is to it very very simple and exceptionally one I love these police liners we make to go in our ponchos I often use mine even without the poncho these things are warm even when they're fairly wet and they dry out pretty easy because it's like a full length like a full length coat you got on like I made these mittens out of some fleece I'm even wearing some long guns that I made out of fleece I would take this fatwood and just it's too brittle too
it's too brittle to make a fuzz stick out of it well I can do a bunch of these right there's enough to get it going just need something a flame can wrap around all right there'll be plenty good I believe to get this thing going get it lit here most of this wood is wet I split a few pieces in there but most of it's all wet I'm hoping hoping I got enough stuff in there to get some of this other going so see hoping I have enough intensity well my fire is starting to catch a little bit so I'm good to go try to be prepared so you don't have to have fire if you don't need it now one thing here you can see this the PD mini the PD mini shoot here it's floating I got it free-floating so it's just a CH to the top of the tripod and I've just got it free-floating
and I do that a lot just because it's easy to do all I've got to do to secure it is I can just tie a little cord to each one of these three legs to it and I can hold I can tie it off so I'll just stay level which is better for picture taken because it doesn't look crooked or whatever but I find I really just I like it about as much just letting the float it's a little bit breezy or something like that and you probably want to tie it off a little bit I'll show you I can raise and lower how high this thing is with these tripod legs really easy if I was string it up between two trees I can do the same thing by just letting the string up or down like this and I can raise the lower so either way it's really easy and with the aluminum hoop I've got around this thing that is I don't have to adjust any other strings you know I can hit this can kind of sit like that I don't have cords going out all over the place not really I did a year without the aluminum hoop Eastern aluminum tubing and the last six months is so since I use the tubing it's like I really don't want to do any of the way now it's so much easier and better but like as it works just as well either way this is a lot more convenient though and if you've watched much of my videos you probably you probably seen me use our campfire cooking sticks cooking irons and then we have our iron wrought iron tripod set up too and the the first version we did was basically for backpacking or you know was something that didn't wasn't so heavy and then I like cast I like using cast iron so much that I decided to uh to do a cast iron version our version for use with cast iron pots and stuff and so that's what we got here I can put my zebra pot water heater on here so what we're doing here is we're instead of the heat from the fire normally just going up into the atmosphere or capturing that heat worth it dissipates but as we slow it down so up in here you know the air can be you know we can get 120 hundred and thirty degrees up in here and you feel that radiating down on you which warms you from the top down then you've got your fire radiating heat this way to you so you're you're feeling heat from a couple different directions and it kind of makes a nice little comfortable atmosphere inside of here all the while you can still look out and see around you still got all the view that you want so that's one reason I like these this little mini parachute setup it's really really nice and convenient for that really adds a lot of comfort when you're out in cooler weather not just not just wintertime but
you know around here up to the mountains yeah you can get into the 20s at night almost any day of the year so you know it's kind of nice all year round here now if I want to lower this if I want to lower this canopy all I've got to do with the tripod set up is move the legs farther apart and it will drop the canopy down and very simple to do all I got to do is lift leg up like this drop it down I see I just I just lowered at about 10 inches or so usually what I like to do if you're standing around it and I like it to be about a foot higher than then your head level so any smoke is kind of up in that level and because this excess smoke will roll out the bottom but if we're sitting in chairs around it then I'll usually drop it down so it's about a foot overhead level when you're sitting in a chair I'm getting ready to have my lunch now and my lunch is actually already made I don't have to fix it I just got to heat it up we have this neighbor lady she's in her like mid-80s she's always doing stuff for people or whatever and she called me a couple hours before I came up here and she says hey stop by stop by and I've got something for you to eat for you guys to eat and I said well I'm going up camping and she's high so I don't really need anything she said well don't you eat when you go camping I said y-yeah it was good happenin and she said well why don't you come by and get so you can take it up with your camping you know so so I did so I got some chicken-fried steak that she had got made up and stuff so I'm gonna throw it in this little let's throw it in my little uh Lodge cast-iron skillet
yeah there we go get that warming up here it'll be delicious I'm sure getting close well I think my Biddle's is did I think they're ready ready to eat like if you didn't notice I dropped the I moved one of the legs of the canopy out just a little bit about a foot and it dropped this thing down just a little bit and I'm running kind of a small fire today you can vary it really depending on what your needs are but I like to keep the smoke level just above my head so I get the ideal the maximum amount of heat from from above one of the nice things is because I'm trapping a significant amount of heat in inside this canopy rather than let it go out into the atmosphere so I it takes me it's considerably less fire to keep me warm that it would with an open flame I mean it's dramatic how much smaller of a fire you can get away with when you use them one of these guys so anyway I think it's time for me to eat some of this food here a little bit of some gravy and oh yeah
it's almost as good as if I made it up here actually actually I should say it's actually better because I didn't have to make it up here I just had to warm it up so all in all it's a great little deal so this is my continuous pour water heater or continuous flow hot-water heater that works kind of like your water heater at home the hot water comes off the top when you pour cold water in it force it to the bottom where most of the heat is so it kind of gives you a continuous flow of hot water and if I'm making these sense the out of the mid to late-1970s I'm a damn hobo style out of tin cans I decided to make one here out of a tall does 16 centimeter zebra pot that I had and as you can see getting plenty of hot water out of there and the nice thing is that once you pour a cup it's always full because it has to be full to get water out so that's why you never you never run out of hot water it's nice to have especially if you're camping in a group or whatever everybody can have their hot water and nobody has to do it out so let me show you how it works so basically what I've got my zebra pot I've got a stainless steel funnel right here and I've got a piece of stainless steel tubing that goes almost to the bottom of pot that I've got another piece of stainless steel tubing it comes out that makes the spout so let me flip this handle down so you can see this makes the water go almost to the bottom so the cold water has to go to the bottom which forces the hot water that's already on top it forces the hottest water out the spout that's all there is to it it's a simple little concept but it works really well and we're getting ready to market these in time for spring camping and summer camping and all that sort of thing it's really nice I really love it for having a continuous flow hot water you don't have to remember to you don't have to remember to fill the pot you know after the last person takes there's there's no hot water left this thing's always full things always full so you never have to worry about running out of hot water nothing like hot Tang started drinking this when I was in Boy Scouts in the 60s it's a nice thing to have on a cold winter morning up I'm a scout camp and I still like it today
it's important especially in the wintertime to stay hydrated drink plenty of fluids and that helps you to avoid getting hypothermia and so it's nice to have a variety of drinks hot drinks or otherwise that you can drink
