- Canvas Hot Tent Camping Vs the Mighty Newfoundland's Extreme Snow Conditions. The deep snow proved to be no issue for the Old Canvas Tent. This was my first time setting up this new canvas tent but it definitely won't be my last time. I was very impressed at how well the tent performed and now I know for certain that this tent will be coming along with me on many of my new adventures in the future. It's a home away from home, warm and cozy.
That’s like a portable cabin. What a nice set up. I’m more used to a one man bivi just big enough for a sleeping bag and your boots lol. That will be nice for remote moose hunts and fishing trips.
Yes sir and that's exactly why I got it, for the remote hunts and fishing trips... Warmer weather LOL
👍👍
great tent and great music!!
Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it.
What a Dandy custom tent. Holy Jeepers you got enough wood in there. lol you must love the heat. Always good to have extra wood. Good call on the stove bottom. The sleeping cot looks familiar. Another great Video.
Yes Terry makes a good tent. Looking forward to getting out and trying the new stove in the near future. We need a little more snow yet... It's close but still need another foot or two for good going.
Love your videos.Keep on living the good life.
Hey, thanks my friend, I'm glad you like them. I'll be posting a new one in the next day or two. Need to add some more content.
Yes
Now this is my all time favorite video for sure 👍
Glad to hear it! New one coming very soon.
Real nice there Charlie, just got to iron a few things out, check out your vid between 14:20 to 14:30.Awesome
Yes Kirk definitely a few things to iron out and your the 3rd or 4th person to comment on that. My sister called it an Orb... She sent me a video she took of it in slow motion and and zoomed in and it sure looks like it flies out the window... I just figured it was lint or dust... Who knows?
Oh I'm so Happy!! Finally a canvas tent. I see how they've been used in Africa, mining in Alaska and here we are. I'd rather have this than anything. Thank you!!
I'm looking forward to doing many more camping videos with this canvas tent. This will become my home away from home in the upcoming years. Thanks for watching, much appreciated...
❤❤
Man! Looks like an awesome time. Thanks for taking us along and stay blessed
Hey thanks for coming along, much appreciated
💕💕
Looks like a lot of fun. Here in Vermont we are getting a lot of snow this weekend so the snowmobiling is gonna be awesome
I truly enjoyed it except the trying to sleep part where I was having to get up every hour... But the day and evening in the tent was extremely enjoyable. Bedtime Not so much... haha
Wonderful stuff
Great hot tent mods, I like those metal bottom protectors ....brilliant! Great memory you had camping with your Dad and Grandfather. New subscriber and thanks for reaching out to me on my channel.
Thanks for the sub and taking the time to watch the video, much appreciated.
Great comment keep them going
If you can get some tea lights (dollar store) and burn them in your cooking pot overnight (for safety) , they should keep that cabin above zero if you have enough. I have a similar setup and for the same reason gave up on the stove overnight - too damn tired to hunt the next day! System I switch to was using tea lights. Each light emits about the same heat as a man, so 4 lights is like having 4 extra bodies in there. In -10c, in a 8x10 tent, 4 tea lights keeps it above zero, and they burn for 4 hours, so you just adjust up or down from there. I just bring 2 sleeping bags and put one inside of the other. Those, in combination with your Coleman lamp, would probably heat the cabin remarkably well without the stove - but would not be sufficient to dry clothes. Great video man, keep em coming!
LMAO hahahaha Quote "Too Damn tired to hunt the next day" !!!! haha that explains my night perfectly... Too Funny my friend. Great tip I will definitely look into candles... But between you and me, there has to be a stove system that would work where a fellow could get 3-4 hours of solid sleep before having to add wood... Something reasonable in size and weight? I've got to check out those tea lights... Dollar store, here I come. Thanks again !!!
Main reason I had to switch was my sinuses. Love the heat of the stove but was messing me up - I'd be all congested in the morning from the wood stove. The candles and cool air seem more agreeable for sleeping - then you can just fire up the stove in the morning and evenings to get comfy.
Got the candle idea from Mors Kochanski. BTW. 1 candle = a man - that's his rule of thumb, and seems to work surprisingly well.
I can relate to sinus problems, had them for years, seems to be getting better lately though. I might just go with 12 of those candles LOL
And they make it more romantic.... :)
Did a lot of winter camping in my teens. Great video! Hello from a wintry BC interior.
I can't wait to get a new stove and do some more of it myself. Thanks for watching
Nice wall tent Charlie. Yes should definitely get a bigger stove, something you can shut right down, that should hold your fire much better.
Oh Jeff, no worries there my buddy. I think that little stove is perfect or certain times of the year but not for winter camping where you want to keep the fire going all night long. I don't function well with that little sleep. Loved the day and evening part of that adventure, but when it came to trying to catch some sleep, it was brutal... Definitely needs something bigger with a stove pipe damper to help control the amount of heat lose, draft and to give you more control over the burn...
Keep thise comments up
Nice set up there Charlie!! Nice memories of Grandpa and Dad. Watch the window at 14:27 , Shooting star??!! Thanks buddy!!!
Yes I seen it, my sister called it an Orb
YES !!! I think she is right!!!!
See Chuck!!! I'm not the only one.
Oh Joe why did you say that LOL (She'll never let me live this down) !!! Hahahaa!!!
Charlie...you helped me several weeks back when I bought my Garmin 64 GPS. Thanks for your videos. I enjoy the content as well as the snow and all you do. David in the Mtns of NC.
Glad I was able to help David, thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment
Keep those comments going
It’s sure a lot of fun staying in the bush in those tents after all the work is done. Very comfortable. Set up a lot of these tents in north Alberta over the years with a outfitter friend, one thing we did different was we had front and rear poles same angle as roof and then the long side rails would sit on those. No vertical poles in corners. Total of 7 poles. The food and beverages always taste better in the bush. Lol. Take care.
Yes many tent's can be set up that way but the roof on terry's tents is at a very low pitch so it's not so appealing to look at. But I know exactly what you mean. The side poles rest on the A-frame poles... That's the best looking set-up in my opinion. The way you see a lot of people setting up Terry's Tents is they end up using 11 poles. Two extra on each side tied to the front and back of each side of the front and back A-frames and leaning outwards away from the tent and then the side poles are tied to those extra 4 poles.
I truly enjoyed the tent, not the sleeping but once I figure out a better sleeping system or stove system it will be much better. And yes, for some reason food and tea is always better in the woods. I'm sure the next time I set it up it will be much quicker and hopefully I will have an extra set of hands to help. Cheers
Great stuff
Very nice tent, crazy amount of snow.. Enjoyed
Thanks Jim I'm glad you liked the video. As soon as I get me new stove there will be more Winter Camping videos coming.
Yep
Nice Charlie, made it through the night eh...... I used to do lot of camping years ago but now I kinda like the old bedroom ahahah and my alarm clock I threw it out in the bush one hot night! Lots of snow on the go bud, wicked winter 4 sure!
Yes lots of snow out here and it's not stopping... The day and evening in the tent was amazing, come bedtime though??? well that was no fun at all... LOL
I have stayed numerous times in a tent in the winter -39 and - 45 with the wind was the coldest. We stayed comfortable all night but used a orange insulated tarp on the inside of the roof wich holds the heat in. I think inside works best but outside would help as well and a barrel stove out of a 35 gallon barrel. So you can fit big enough slow roaster logs so eliminates every hour stocking. The one night filled it up at 10:30pm and didn't get up till 6am still warm. Took a few times for us to work the bugs out but have it figured now. Not scared of -45!!!
Yes now we are talking, I would love to be able to figure something out where I could sleep 7 1/2 hours.... That would be amazing, I'd would practically live in this tent then... I didn't think I've seen an insulated tarp, to set that up on the inside of the tent would take some modifications for sure. (But hey, if it Works) !!! Yes a bigger stove would be lovely. Sure I'd be happy if I could get 2-3 hours of sleep before getting up to fill the stove... It will definitely take me a few times to work out these bugs...
Great comment
Haven't seen one of them in years. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Hi Charlie, really appreciate you sharing your adventures great job, that knot is a simple Tautline Hitch. Thanks Again.
Right on, It's a wonderful knot and I use it often, just never knew the proper name of it. Funny thing is, I'm sure this is also one of the knots they would have taught us many years ago in the Military... I knew and used most of the knots they showed us, just never ever knew the names of those knots. LOL Thanks for watching my videos, much appreciated
Love it
Loved the video and commentary! Looks like a great adventure!
Thank-you and it sure was. Ordering a new improved stove for it and looking forward to the next winter camping adventure.
👍👍👍
I really enjoyed seeing your tenting adventure . the first time out is always the hardest until you get used to how you want to do things. I loved seeing the outside evening pictures. enjoy the rest of the winter. bill
Yes, and I wanted to do it all by myself. Setting up these tents a second pair of hands would be great. Looking forward to getting out on another winter camping adventure soon. Next time I'm going to be sleeping on the boughs and not digging down to set up this tent... Need to work smarter
Thanks for Watching
Good comment keep making them
Nice job! Plenty of wood for the night
Thanks Dan, yes to be perfectly honest, it was my intention to stay up there for multiple nights, I was hoping for 3 at least. However there was no way I was going to stay there after the first night and having to add wood to the stove every hour on the hour.... But I think I am getting closer to selecting my next stove. Once I pull the trigger on the stove I'll let everyone know and probably set up the tent directly behind the house to test out how long I can get out of a full stove full of wood. I would be happy with 3 hours, if I can get close to the 3 hour mark I'll be heading straight out to do more winter camping videos in different locations.
The knot is a "tauntline hitch"
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, much appreciated
Morning Charlie ! Great time spent with ya at your tent ! You'll get all things sorted I know ! Yup ! stove Upgrade will do the trick Have a grand Day There, Friend ! Happy Trails from This Side ATB T God Bless
Thanks Terry, yes I need a winter stove for this... I'm getting lots of good tips in the comments so I might get this figured out sooner rather than later. Thanks for Watching
Love it
put some decent sized flat rocks in bottom of stove, will not only protect bottom, but gives some mass to hold heat
That's a good Idea, hard to find those rocks this time of year here though. LOL
Your right about the venture effect. Any little gaps in the door or places to suck air in etc and forget it, your gonna bake as you found out.
Oh I got a nice looking stove now.
@@NLGhostWolf If you don't mind me asking did Charlie, did you get one of those propane custom ones. There are so many stoves out there. I just grabbed the ole Hunter military one,, lol it was free so what the heck. But major wind tunnel and virtually no way to slow the draft. haha . its ok, its great for the ice shack on the Ottawa river.
Nice there Charlie ! To bad the stove burned out so fast tho, but you wouldn't cold that's the main thing!lol
No I wasn't cold but I was sure tired come morning.... I like my sleep. I've got to figure out a better stove system for winter camping... Or get a damn good sleeping bag.
Nice Video Charlie its a Beautiful tent, yeah you need a damper in the pipe it would save the heat and make the wood last longer, thanks for the video take care and all the best,
Glad you enjoyed it, and yes.. I've got to mod this system, because I like to sleep and getting up every hour on the hour... No Fun LOL
I wish I was closer chuck, so i could help you out with that stove upgrade, I am currently sewing my own tent and have my stove 90%complete.
Yes Brock that would be great. Looking forward to seeing your tent and stove when it's completed
nice job. but you ever use fir boughs on the flooring? we use them when we camp in these tents up home in Labrador.
yes that's the way we use to do it, this was my first time sleeping in one in a very long time and was trying sometime new. Going to experiment with a wooden platform in the future. But boughs are the traditional way for sure and plus it gives the tent a nice smell... Can't beat the boughs...
winnerwell stainless steel stove... you'll never regret it
researching them now, thanks
Yep still my favorite
thanks
Love the music
The Boys can play, thanks for watching
Try the Wall Tent Shop for a stove. He's got some pretty good ones.
I will check them out but as of right now I think I will be going with the Camp Chef Alpine Heavy Duty Cylinder Stove. for $331.00 CAD it's a good deal. Plus Wal-Mart has a good return policy if the stove don't fit. $0 for shipping and handling because we have a stove right here in town. If this stove don't work out then I will look at getting another one. Thanks for watching and for the tip on the stoves... Much appreciated.
Well Charlie, if I was closer I'd build you a stove. A nice little down draft, top load would be nice with a couple of folding worming shelves. Later buddy and all the best.
Hey Barry you should get right on that for him. You can always ship it over to him by Canada Post via way of dog sled....lol
Ya, I'm not sure why you're living in NS, LOL (I'm going to do some shopping around to see what system and stove works best)
haha Tom you're a character, take it easy
thanks for sharing
thanks for watching
Great video Charlie! Hard night with the stove lol. Maybe a good sleeping bag might be the way to go. I'm sure you will get the bugs worked out. Take care.
Loved the experience except for bedtime, that was no fun at all. Yes Wilmore, I need to work out a better night time system, either a great sleeping bag or a better stove and stove pipe system... Thanks for watching
Keep these comments coming
I will be ordering a tent from them soon. Great vid bud
Right on Norm, Dave Wilcox has one as well.
You gotta counteract that hot stove with a lot more Coldbeer.
For sure, now you're speaking my language. LOL
great overnighter that's a cool tent. greener wood might help. when i seen the stove i was thinking you would get 2 hours out of a fill up. hope the next trip works out better. take care
I tried a couple of green sticks and they never burned that well, had to keep adding the dry sticks to get it to burn which created less room in the stove for the dry stuff. I only had real green or real dry, I think I needed something in between.
Love those comments
Wish we had snow like that here in Saskatchewan
We are getting more and more each day
Great for the Ski-doo Adventures, Thanks for watching
Hey Charlie, how cold did she get that night? Bringing back memories of out old moose camps in Northern Maine with dad and grandpa and the old wall tents we had... was always the new guys job to keep the stoves going.. and God forbid if they went out lol. Great video as always, keep em coming.
It didn't get very cold, -6 C with a -15 C windchill. Haha, I need to find me a new guy for the stove... LOL
Great comment keep um coming
A quick set up tent sled would have been my personal choice of over night accommodation's.
look at Canadian outdoor store in Tronto , or Atku tents in Quebec they make stoves, I have a K nico for mine got at the Canadian outdoor
Thanks for the tip, I will definitely check it out. Cheers
Another great video! If you're in the market for a great stove, check out g stove canada. Probably the last stove that you'll have to buy.
Keep those great video's coming.
I will check them out, thanks for the advice and thanks for watching
Hey Charlie, you could take that tent to your cabin build site and leave it there for when you are building your cabin. How is the cabin build coming along? Haven't had any updates on it lately. Would love to sleep out in one of those tents. Looks like fun except the waking up every hour to stoke the stove. How you are feeling ok, as it seems like you have a bit of a cough going on there. Keep safe and stay warm. Tom
Hey Tom, I haven't been working at all on the cabin. I got weathered out this fall and still need to complete the garage. I have footage on the garage but I plan on just doing one video showing the garage from start to finish vs the daily episodes/updates... I watched a few videos on cabin and garage builds that run for dozens of episodes... When folks do that I quickly lose interest and normally only watch a couple of episodes at the beginning and then near the end... (I skip over all the ones in between)...
It was a lot of fun during the day and evening, truly loved the rustic/primitive atmosphere of the canvas tent with the wood stove, EXCEPT for when it came to bedtime... (Not so much fun then) LOL....
I'm feeling much better but still cough when I do any amount of exercise or talking... It's a real pain in the butt... It's like having a smokers cough without ever having smoked... PS. Hoping to do some land prep work on the cabin site this spring.
Great idea
Looks like you had a fun and enjoyable Adventure thanks for taking us along and sharing your experience. 🔥🏔️❄️😁 How far away from your house were you?
I was only 1 km behind the house on the first hill/mountain... Far enough away to fully enjoy a wonderful quiet evening and see some wildlife. Even if it was only glowing eyes in the night. Once I find another stove system I will test it right behind the house before heading to far out... But once I have the stove issue worked out I'll be heading up to my cabin site for a few nights. And I also want to do some camping at Grandfathers old cabin site as well.
That's great that you have such nice areas right out from your backyard, looking forward to seeing your future hot tent camping experiences. Thanks again for sharing.
No problem Larry, thanks for watching... Yes I'm very lucky to be living where I do, with such easy access to the great outdoors
Wicked stuff
I do the same thing with tarp over tent to help stay dry an lock in heat, keeping the weather off as long as possible tent will last alot longer
yes Todd and it sure helps with snow load on the roof... As you can see from the video, we do get a bit of snow in this area... LOL I think it would like protect it from the UV's as well over time.
@@NLGhostWolf great video
I cut a piece of expanded metal "grate" an put on the bottom of stove to set the wood on top of it!!
that should work just fine.
Nice vid sir ! Is your lamp a coleman kerosine one ? they give a ton of heat unlike a gasoline one
Coleman propane... Thanks for watching
Great video. What’s Terry’s 8 x 10 like for setting up by yourself?
It wasn't bad actually. But I only have 5 foot walls on mind. I would imagine the larger the tent the harder it is unless you have the pole system with it like we did in the military
@@NLGhostWolf thanks.
I know that knot as the "taut-line hitch". Are you going to put a damper on the stove pipe? Great over-nighter for working out the bugs...
Thanks on the knot name. Not sure about a damper on the stove pipe with that stove... I think I would need to get a move air tight stove then that little galvanized stove or I might get smoke bleeding into the tent... But I will be trying it out to see if it works. Been watching some hot tent camping videos and there are some very nice steel stoves out there. If you look at the 11:24 minute mark of this video you'll see how they fitted the adapter of the stove pipe to the top of the stove and when the stove gets hot those little gaps seem to expand... Which got me thinking if I would run into smoke problems with those gaps if I install a damper into the stove pipe.??? What's your thoughts on that....
I can't see one in the video but you need an inline stove pipe damper, that will help with the wood consumption & heat regulation, this video is 5 years old now & I just stumbled upon you I'm sure you've figured that out by now.
I ended up getting a new stove after this video and it works amazing.
Great vid Charlie, I have the Hunter wood stove for tents by Drolet. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the tip Ted I'll check them out.
Wonderful
Hey, my family was looking into maybe getting a 600 ACE LT, probably 2017 or newer, and so far our research has proven that it seems to be a very reliable sled, good all rounder. But one recurring problem my father found was that it went through belts even faster than the average ski-doo. Like you get stuck and you will smoke your belt trying to get out. But this info was from the 2012 and 2013 models, so I was wondering if you have had any big belt problems or not? Have you even had to change the belt yet? Or has Ski-Doo fixed this issue? All I know is that the newer models (~2015-present) were fitted with an upgraded belt. I would really like your input, thanks.
Same belt since new that's 3 years and no issues.
@@NLGhostWolf ooo wow. ok thanks.
But I plan on getting it changed on the next service visit. Better save then sorry..
Great looking tent,you have enough wood I think 😃😃
Well I was actually planning on staying longer but changed my mind when I was only getting one hour out of a stove full of wood... Once I find a new stove system I'll be back in there to try again.
😆😆
Hope u can get out camping next winter
me too
Charlie check out cold creek works it is a TH-cam channel. He does some nice stuff too and good ideas. A 30 lb propane tank would probably be perfect for what you need. He has several different models I believe.
Thanks for the tip, I'll be doing some searching around for a good winter stove system.
What size is your tent? I have one thats 14 x 16, but was thinking I would rather it a little smaller. Mine is a little heavy for one person to be throwing around.
8x10 it only weights 33 lbs. Good size for one or two people.
❤❤❤
What language are you speaking in boy lol... That for sharing.
haha, thanks
try getting some hard wood to burn, instead of that soft wood your burning
I have some birch in that pile... But you are right, In the future I will be prepping before and ensuring I have some seasoned birch to burn.
at least that way you don't have to get up every hr to put wood in the stove
What was the light that went by the window at 14.27?
Not sure, my sister was freaked out about that, she called it an Orb I think... It seemed to fly straight out the window. I seen it but figured it was just lint or dust passing it front of the lantern... She watched and recorded that in slow motion and it appeared to fly straight out through the screen... I still think it was dust or lint...
the knot is a rollin hitch i believe
Thanks, I'll try and remember that for the next video.
Sure does get cold up yalls way!
Yes sir plenty of snow for everyone...
I’m good with snow, but yours looks colder then ours, lol!
haha, too funny
Checkout Camp Chef Alpine Heavy Duty Cylinder Stove
Available at Walmart.ca
We camp as a group of four and one of has to stoke it about every 3-4 hours. It’s got adjustable intake and a damper in the chimney pipe. You can control it the way you want. And a flat top for cooking. Made of 1/8” steel. Works great for us. These thin small boxes aren’t cutout for Canadian outdoors.
I have to check my chimney pipe hole in the tent to see if it can handle the 6" stove pipe, but that's a perfect stove and a great price... Thanks for the tip
Anyone decent at welding could make it no problem
Maybe a project for Cousin Jack, he's a welder by trade
Taut line hitch
Thanks, I will try and remember that name for future camping videos
@@NLGhostWolf run the loop around, three wraps in the gap, one outside. They work best with hemp rope, with nylon you have two run a couple of half-hitches around the V to help hold the knot.
We call it a slip not
Thanks I will try and remember that name as well.
Slip knot
How much are there tents
They vary in price with the size. You can get a breakdown of the different tent sizes and prices on his website, just click on products. terrystents.ca
Just put a damper in the stove pipe
Many too many air holes on that stove for that. There are no welds in the stove just folder joins which expand when hot. To place a damper in the stove pipe would cause the tent to fill with smoke in no time. I'm looking at getting a better stove, welded edges, with a damper in the stove pipe...
How do I get a t shirt!!??
What shirt size are you?
My size is a large in cotton, and a medium in synthetics.
+1 Charlie, I was looking to make sure somebody else asked before i made a new post but yessir, I would definitely pick one up
What size are you Andrew?
@@NLGhostWolf large
