You should consider getting a packraft and you could get over to the island all the time

[KennethKramm]

@craftbrosify Excellent idea. Tks, Ken

09:30 =D Vultures are really amazing, not only their faeces are clean from bacteria and virus, because of their strong stomach acids, but also their feathers (they always clean themselves after a meal). I never undestanded why people don´t like them. Great birds.

[RaulSoaresG1452]

Ken, I really enjoy your camping videos, they are so interesting and fun to watch. For poeple like me, who can´t go out very often, watch your videos is a great way to have a notion of the great entertaining adventure that is camping. Thank you very much. Happy new year!

[KennethKramm]

@RaulSoaresG1452 Thanks Raul.  I can't wait to go on my next camping trip. Stay tuned. Have a wonderful new year! Ken

I DARE.

[KennethKramm]

@bigmuscleify OK. Now we can do push-ups on the ground below the vulture roost.  Thanks for commenting. The next time I'm hiking in an area with rocks, perhaps we can do some exercises together. Ken

Wonderful Ken.

Thanks for posting this. I will look upon vultures in a more positive light from now on. I guess the same can be said about many other species too.

Best wishes

Sandy

I made it over the log ken. Thanks for a nother great video.

[KennethKramm]

@guns4funca Glad you made it over the log!. I slipped "for real" when I walked the log while holding the camera. I needed to edit my language to be suitable for YouTube. If you look at one of my video from over a year ago, "Stubblefield Lake in an Inflatable boat", you can see how the water usually looks. Thanks for watching, Ken

I wish you a very happy and wonderful holiday to all of you ...

[zutubefan]

@zutubefan Thanks for your feedback. Ken

Another great video, Ken. We all learn a great deal from your examples. You are braver than me! I don't think I would have slept a wink with the hogs present. They scare me to death. You look good in your orange, but I am waiting to camp after hunting season is over. Thanks again for sharing with us. Have a great holiday! V.

[KennethKramm]

@vickyoftexas You are welcome. Glad you liked the video. I thought about doing this for a couple of years. I finally worked up the courage (or stupidity) to camp next to a vulture roost. May nature be with you, especially over the holidays!

[angiesfocus]

Thanks Vultures! And thanks for your poop, when in need.

[KennethKramm]

@angiesfocus The vultures appreciate your feedback.  Thanks.

Looks alot like southeast louisiana where i grew up.

[KennethKramm]

@mawacal Yep, it's this is the western edge of the pineywoods.

[floydstinkyboy]

that was excellent ken, a fine adventure movie.

[floydstinkyboy]

@floydstinkyboy especially nice night sounds !

[KennethKramm]

@floydstinkyboy Glad you enjoyed the video. It was a fun adventure, but scary at night. Listen carefully, and you will hear hisses from the vultures, howling coyotes and grunting feral hogs. Ken

[fog360]

nice vid. great camp spot.

[KennethKramm]

@fog360 Thanks. I wanted to camp in this spot for several years, but couldn't find anyone to go with me.... so I decided to camp alone! It was fantastic.

[swaintx]

Nice video. Good suggestions about sleeping in the hammock. Your a brave man to camp on a piece of land with no humans present. This is definitely wild primitive camping!!!!

[KennethKramm]

@swaintx Thanks for your feedback. Yes, it was scary at night. If you listen carefully, you will hear the feral hogs at night when the coyotes were howling.
