Surviving the Storm: Wild Camping on Big Sur's Windy & Stormy Cliff Overlooking the Pacific!
What I thought would be a lovely and relaxing wild camping experience high above the Pacific Ocean in Big Sur turned into quite the adventure. There were a few moments during the wee hours of the morning where I contemplated if my little tent would hold up and keep me dry. Luckily, my Big Agnes Fly Creek Ultralight 2 person tent lived up to the hype. Thank you camping gods! ;) Enjoy the adventure!!!

    hi scott, i live in the bay area and was always discouraged to camp in Big Sur by the complex and crowded reservation system at Big Sur. M curious, was this a regular campsite reservation that you long booked online or do they allow backpacking with wilderness permits or something?

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33 7 днів тому

    You are supposed to remove the seeds. Pro tip, cut the stem off or pull it. Then from the butt end slice down and don’t have any seeds or whit on your bell pepper. Way easier way. This vid was 2 years ago so I’m assuming you are good now on how to cut a bell pepper haha. Good vid otherwise
