Platinum-selling singer/songwriter Canaan Smith is also an avid outdoorsman and recently took Country Now along for a camping trip where he offered up a few tips on spending time in the great outdoors.

Smith let cameras roll as he showcased his must-have camping items, such as a packable stove, high-calorie, easily packable foods and a water filtration system.

He also shared his hack for drinking coffee on the go and gave a few tips about keeping mosquitoes away while in the woods.

Check it out below.

Canaan Smith, who is signed to Florida Georiga Line’s Round Here Records, recently released the video for his latest track, “Colder Than You.” The Kurt Ozan-directed clip finds smith in the northern Georgia stretch of the Blue Ridge Mountains where he serves up a heartbreak remedy by making what he likes to call “beer-shine.”

The light-hearted clip pairs well with the catchy country tune, which was co-produced by Smith alongside Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley, and written by Smith, Corey Crowder and Jared Mullins.
