    Base Camp Set Up and Bear Problems


    An individual is feeding 15 black bears in the area so that they have no fear of people. Whatever can be damaged or destroyed at base camp must now be packed out after every trip. They can become very expensive.

    I wish someone would eat that individual. Those bears will probably be killed because of him.

    Thanks for sharing, great to finally have a face to put with your voice. Love the old school table and chairs. Great tip for wood storage too. Too bad about the ignoramus feeding the bears though.

    Good stuff, Carver. A shame about the idiotic bear feeder.

    Great video! Nice to put a face to that voice. I really like your camp kitchen box, any chance of a walk thru on what you have there? Thanks for showing us your setup options.

    That is a great video, i subbed, loved the whole peaceful feel of it just like when i am out camping.

    You have some awesome gear there and great setups.

    Not sure if you use facebook but there are some great retro camping groups on there

    Hope you do another video in the future
