Safety precautions I took on my first solo camping trip #carcamping #shorts #solofemaletraveler

“How do you stay safe?!”

Staying safe on my first solo camping trip was my top priority. 👏🏼

In addition to staying at a campsite that I was familiar with and bringing several forms of protection, I am confident in using my voice and body to protect myself. 😤

Sure, camping alone was kinda scary but I did everything I could to prepare for what I was scared of and I ended up having a great time. I don’t want to let my fears hold me back from doing things I love and I shouldn’t have to wait for someone else to be free so I can go on an adventure!

Here’s what I brought to stay safe:

🐻 Bear spray
🚨 @shes_birdie personal alarm
🔪 Pocket knife
😤 Whistle
🔒 Carabiners to use as “locks” for my tent
🪑 An extra chair to make it look like I wasn’t alone

🚘 I parked the car facing the road so I wouldn’t have to back out if I needed to make a quick escape.

And the most important thing I did on my solo camping trip was 👏🏼trust my gut👏🏼

  4. @GallianoIsTrash on December 21, 2024 at 12:59 am

    I’m sorry but why are you acting like you are deep in the woods, when theres plenty of traffic around you

  5. @groMMit1981 on December 21, 2024 at 1:02 am

  7. @mikepage9520 on December 21, 2024 at 1:05 am

    Wow, imagine being so narcissistic that you think someones coming for you everywhere you go. As for the carabiner on the zips…..if someone does come for you a sharp knife will open a tent quicker than the zips ever can

  8. @JeanetteMcCullough-rn9gn on December 21, 2024 at 1:06 am

    Ur crazy. 😮

  9. @kantham888 on December 21, 2024 at 1:09 am

  11. @MrGusto-ch3wc on December 21, 2024 at 1:10 am

    You got this.
    Kick ass kiddo.
    I’m a male with years of experience in the back country. And I still bring bear spray. For people. Not bears. Lol
    You are a rock star!!!

  12. @victoriajohansson7669 on December 21, 2024 at 1:11 am

    And don’t post your usual spots on the internet 🤔
    I’m so sad to see what precautions You us woman have to take. This has never crossed my mind in Sweden. I’m just scared of dehydration and bats 😅

  13. @AnthonyLee-u1z on December 21, 2024 at 1:12 am

    My M4A3 makes me fell safe along with my 1911A1 45. If they want you, they’ll cut thru the tent. Flatten your tires , silent thing’s they’ll do.

  14. @od1nh1ll on December 21, 2024 at 1:12 am

    yeah….nah

  15. @azca. on December 21, 2024 at 1:13 am

    This is so cringe

  16. @mrxy4254 on December 21, 2024 at 1:13 am

    I go alone tell no one were I am and camp wild…

  17. @Socalwarrior81 on December 21, 2024 at 1:17 am

    It’s called a gun hunny it’s all you need to scare bears and people away.

  18. @MikeHorms on December 21, 2024 at 1:17 am

    You were so "deep in the wilderness" that you could park next to your tent 😂

  19. @moaung7556 on December 21, 2024 at 1:20 am

    First safety is firearm for protection

  20. @Koorroo on December 21, 2024 at 1:20 am

    why no gun?

  21. @SimirJohnson on December 21, 2024 at 1:22 am

    Hope you brought a vibrator too!

  22. @deborahcrown1982 on December 21, 2024 at 1:25 am

    Congratulations on being a gutsy and intelligent lady.

  23. @adimitrov9006 on December 21, 2024 at 1:26 am

    I can literally see the busy road behind you 😫 GOD

  24. @gamesandsoftwares1441 on December 21, 2024 at 1:29 am

    Get a gun girl you deserve to protect youself the correct way

  25. @Xander_Park on December 21, 2024 at 1:30 am

    So, you’re a female in the middle of the woods all by yourself, and you didn’t bring a firearm? You should re-think your life choices .

  26. @idabblediy on December 21, 2024 at 1:30 am

    I’m a 25 y/o woman. I’ve gone solo camping a handful of times. Nothing keeps you safer from the threat of danger than a firearm. If men carry them, we should too. It’s the ultimate equilizer

  27. @mganfman4898 on December 21, 2024 at 1:36 am

    Booked..?

  28. @tonyt3428 on December 21, 2024 at 1:36 am

    i sleep with a grenade, just in case. Cant be to careful these days.

  29. @davidstainton7201 on December 21, 2024 at 1:36 am

    Get a German shepherd and you’ll never be alone. Electric fence around your tent. Couple hundred bucks. Bears hate them. Easily transported. Easy set up. Set up time 5 minutes. First layer of defence.

  30. @GeorgeDunlop-v5m on December 21, 2024 at 1:37 am

    You came to the wrong shop,😂😂😂 There be monsters here on YouTube, just so you know.😂😂😂

  31. @Hserkuoutdoor on December 21, 2024 at 1:37 am

    Get a Glock 😉

  32. @nvtruant5994 on December 21, 2024 at 1:37 am

    This behaviour increases anxiety. I would have a horrible time if I had to do all these safety precautions.
    I’ve solo camped and backpacked solo and only bring bear spray for bears. I guess if a weirdo was around I’d use it on him too, but I don’t worry about that kind of stuff. Remember most people and bears are great!

  33. @ggman2008 on December 21, 2024 at 1:38 am

    You should have a better knife that you don’t have to unfold as much. Just a dad’s opinion.

  34. @michaelhall8572 on December 21, 2024 at 1:40 am

    Tip carabineers don’t work some one can cut throw the tent

  35. @csl9495 on December 21, 2024 at 1:40 am

    What about a gun?

  36. @TonyChin226 on December 21, 2024 at 1:43 am

    If I was this scared I’d stay home. Get a dog and a Glock and worry no more.

  37. @Callabunga24 on December 21, 2024 at 1:44 am

    You know, instead of being an idiot and putting yourself in danger, maybe do what God is telling you to do and stay in the kitchen

  38. @adimitrov9006 on December 21, 2024 at 1:44 am

    Safer than Springfield

  39. @johnyosores4022 on December 21, 2024 at 1:44 am

    My god! This is America carry a gun for protection, your alone & your woman.

  40. @Stoobid_nerd69 on December 21, 2024 at 1:45 am

    Tell me you don’t trust hypothetical humans more than bears without telling me.

  41. @RaulaPiedzivojumi on December 21, 2024 at 1:46 am

    Escape what? You literally rented a campsite so basically its not real surviving

  42. @The_adventures_of_oreo on December 21, 2024 at 1:48 am

    I know that it’s better to be safe especially as a woman but y’all be acting like Michael Miyres (idk how to spell it) is sitting outside y’all’s tent 😭😭😭

  43. @Moshikokotashima on December 21, 2024 at 1:50 am

    Aren’t you in USA and can carry guns with you? Damn girl let me tag along.

  44. @boxjellyfish9819 on December 21, 2024 at 1:50 am

    I wanna go so bad

  45. @winstonsmiths2449 on December 21, 2024 at 1:51 am

    Firearm. Buy one, train, practice, camp.

  46. @azrielhillel5038 on December 21, 2024 at 1:52 am

    😂

  47. @ltrentiws1 on December 21, 2024 at 1:52 am

    Omg, only in America…

  48. @LoveEricsson on December 21, 2024 at 1:54 am

    And thats wy you camp thr heck outa dutch of you scared of ppl dont go camping at csmping grounds simple 😊

  49. @OldeAl on December 21, 2024 at 1:56 am

    If someone or something wants in your tent for any reason they’re probably not going to let a latch on the zipper stop them considering the walls of the tent are paper thin and easily cut through…

  50. @3rr0r.4.0.4 on December 21, 2024 at 1:57 am

    Another tip! Used men’s work boots outside the door!
