I've seen everything on TH-cam winter camping cluding drones ..feords..polar bears This is the one that I've been searching for the most rugged down-to-earth cold-ass camping I've ever seen and the dude does it with his jacket wide open!!! Kudos to you sir! The master of the cold winds! Amazing footage and nothing special.. no drones. Just a tarp, a sleeping bag and a hamburger!!!!!!!
Your video really captured the brutal reality of blizzard conditions in an emergency situation. You showed what an individual needs to do in order to survive the night in sub-zero temps with minimal gear. Thank you, you’ve provided an invaluable service brotha
Holy cow. I'm just not that brave. Those conditions are deadly, and I was scared just sitting here at home watching it. I am always impressed by you guys that just go on out there and face mother nature at her worst. You've shown that in an emergency situation, remaining calm, putting up some sort of shelter, and getting a fire going can and will save your life. Great video
Myself and friend camped out in 17 degree wind chill weather once for three days. By a lake and I can tell you it got cold 🥶 real quick when the sun went down. Props to you sir.
I spent about 9 1/2 years in the backcountry in the western U.S. when I was younger. I wintered out two winters with minimal shelter. I thought you toughed it out well, which, sometimes when you don't have time or energy to make a proper camp, is just how it goes. One suggestion I would make, if I may, is next time bring more fat to eat. A nice big chunk of sharp cheddar and a half stick of butter or some bacon would have been possible choices of mine if possible. The reason is because I have found that you can take a lot more cold if your body has ample fat to burn. Just my personal experience. The second year I wintered out I took a LOT of fat which I shared with my dog and we ate with our meat (which is of course mostly very lean in the wild) and we both did a lot better. Loved the canvas outer sleeping bag. That was my choice for outdoor winter camping because its so much safer around fire. I'm getting a bit long in the tooth for TOO much adventure these days. Good video. 👺
Well just because we haven't caught one doesn't mean there isn't one or a whole family. I have seen and heard weird things out in the woods and I couldn't tell you what it is could be the wind could be an animal just making a weird noise I don't know I'm not going to dismiss the possibility.
@@markcolby2927 Quite honestly I don't think there is such a thing as bigfoot. I spent many years alone in the mountains and I either saw everything that lived there (and probably ate it) and/or found its bones. All of the hunters with scopes and rifles hunting every year, all the game cams, not one set of bones and not one kill or decent game cam photo, pretty much speaks for itself. Could I be wrong? It's theoretically possible but extremely unlikely. Just my opinion for what its worth. I am less afraid in the woods than I am on your average small town streets.
Props for taking one for the team and filming this for our pleasure. I’m cold watching this and I’m under my blankets. I think you might have some Superman in you.
Sitting on my couch in my comfy house remembering my homeless days.Strangely enough i miss certain aspects of that life.Especially sleeping under a tarp in snowstorms. Thanks for your vids Man😊
30 years ago I was wandering Europe by foot before I made my farm. This video reminds me of the beginning of that journey . I watch this over and ovet again just not to forget where I came from. And how much I loved it
@@Ryanoutdoors Thanks for your video. As you said in another post, this video was just to demonstrate getting caught in a unexpected blizzard situation with minimal gear. I keep a 10x10 blue tarp and basic gear on a couple of my four wheeler ATV's more for fun or a rainy day. A lighter, candle, cereal bars, aspirin, toilet paper, instant coffee, 1st aid items, etc in a zip lock bag. I keep a small flashlight and whistle on each of the key rings, and I usually have a couple bottles of water with me when I ride.
Beauty. I did the blizzard of '95 on the Appalachian trail w 4 season gear. Thunder/lightning, wind. Snow up to my waist on the way out the next morning. Didn't dig hole wide enuf, kept packing, pushing the tent sides out. Biggest fear was falling trees- Cook? Walked in with 15 McD breakfast burritos. Coffee of course.
Loved it, Ryan! That's the kind of weather I like, would be perfect if you had a dry bivvy and a warm sleeping bag. Like a little bedroom you could retire to and read or listen to a pod and be insulated. Seeking refuge in terrible conditions. 💨🌧🌪🌨🏕🔥🌲⛈👍
Propane Buddy heater under the tarp, pointed at the bedroom. I might stay a couple days. If I could. I'm a little bit handicapped, but I like to imagine.:)

I am a tarp guy. But, sometimes I do setup my tarp with a fairly closed in effect, like a tent. I have acquired a Solo Stove that decreases the size of the fire I make, therefore the size of wood I need to burn. It burns very hot and completely. I think you would like it. You’ll get better with your tarp with use. Enjoyed your video, thanks. Texas
Thank you I appreciate that mostly this video was to demonstrate an average person getting caught up in a surprise blizzard and having bare minimal gear
Y'all are one tough dude ! I just subscribed because this is real bushcraft and I like that. Very few of the other guys on youtube could hang with you in conditions like this. Keep making those videos and I'' keep watching !
It really pays off to make sure your shelter is weather worthy to ensure your survival . Without the bag you would have froze to death . Its worth the extra effort to keep the elements off of you. I'm glad your still alive ....
Yep that was the point of this video is showing that with minimal gear you can survive. With the winds and the amount of time that's the type of shelter most people would throw up. Thanks for watching
You sir have my deepest respect. Last time I camped out in weather that bad was back in '78. I had to dig a quinzee ( actually, more of a trench ) draped my tarp across it and punch a ventilation hole on the leeward side. Fire, now that was a challenge. To put this into context, I was 16 at the time. I reckoned, it was just like, well starting a fire. Something I was good at. Took me several tries just to get ignition and many, many trips of grabbing what ever dead wood was nearby. I hadn't learned the art of processing wood yet, but I knew you start out small, build up to big. Anyways, to make this a short story, I ended up with a decent "fire pit". So come the morning... end result: The blizzard buried my quinzee camp except for two things. My ventilation hole, turned into a ventilation shaft. And the fire kept the entrance clear.
Nice to see a video that addresses the practical aspects of dealing with an emergency survival situation. So many so called “survival “ videos spend huge amounts of time building some sort of bushcraft shelter. In a true survival situation, you would freeze to death before the shelter was finished. The moral of the story is, carry a tarp, regardless of whether or not you plan to spend the night. If things happen to go sideways, it can save your life. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for watching if you haven't already please consider subscribing. the point of this video was to show with minimal gear if you were trapped in a blizzard you can survive
@@Ryanoutdoors The key is to be able to stay out of the wind and stay dry. If you can do that, you can handle extremely cold temperatures. Conversely, if you get wet and exposed to the wind, you can develop hypothermia and die in temperatures of 35 to 45 degrees F.
When you can pack out drag out in this shit you can sleep anywhere!! He said he brought a burger!! You mean a ice cream sandwich!! My lad i love you for this video good stuff
Anyone who camps out with that minimal equipment and clothing in these conditions deserves a subscribe and like ! This is how camping used to be, before all the high tech and wimpiness kicked in lol. Way to go, keep it up.
Kudos to you for toughing it out in fairly extreme conditions. Also, kudos to you for having gear suitable to the conditions. Thanks for this video!😎💙💛

Great video, that was an extreme overnight. A small backing stove or esbit type stove would be nice to get you a cup coffee in the morning given how cold it was.
Not sure why just now I have found this video. I usually watch bush craft videos all the time and do a decent amount myself. Never on video but just for the experience. What amazes me about this, is the confidence it gives the average guy who wants to get out there and try some bush crafting. You are not some survivor man type person. You struggled like we all do, it was real! And I loved it. I would be willing to bet this experience you shared with the viewers gave someone the confidence to get out there and try it! Great Job man, harsh climate, harsh weather, and a damn snow drift next to your head! Loved it!
Thank you. I always try to show a real experience in my videos I don't try to show just the good parts when editing I'll leave the mistakes in there also and the struggles. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it
Almost reminds me of March 1991 when i was visiting family in Kangerlussuaq Greenland , We set up a tarp shelter near Sugarloaf mountain got a bit of a shock when night time temps dropped to -50c and lower was a great time , but was i ever glad to get back to the Hotel the next day!
Great video, I like the bushcraft and camping videos in bad weather , rain , blizzards , windy days . It is the atmosphere of nature with the outdoor camping experience which adds to the adventure. I just subscribed too, I hope to see more of these storm camping videos.
I came to say I could find no reason to do what you did. But I read your answer and now I think you are one brave man. I thought I would never go camping with you but now you are the only one to be with under those conditions.
I fly these little ultralight aircraft. A neat trick I learned is sand bags. Fill them with dirt or sand & use them as weights to hold down a tent. I know you didn't have any here though. Great video! Thanks!
Yeah that would be fantastic but the ground was frozen solid LOL thanks for watching I did try to put some bigger pieces of wood on the back but that wind and snow was relentless.
This was so much fun to watch. I'm surprised your teeth didn't chatter at all--neither before or after you got the fire started. Brrrrrrr. Lived in FL all my life and I consider 50 degrees bitter cold.
It was a heck of a night thanks for watching and if you haven't already please consider subscribing and giving a thumbs up and sharing with your friends and family.
While stationed at Minot, N. D. while at one of our sites. I was a supervisor. The heating at the site was not working hardly at all. I slept in back bedroom, and another very cold night. So cold I slept dressed and in a sleeping bag. Cold of - 40 not uncommon. Thanks retired and old, but dues paid.
I come here anytime I need a brain boost positive attitude for a cold outing. Just try to go through it with Ryan as if you were there. You’ll feel the cold !!!
@@Ryanoutdoors Looked a bit chilly 🥶 but awesome video nonetheless. We’re heading out on a trip tomorrow, may be a little snow, but nothing like that!!
I enjoyed This video more than most preparing ourselves for surviving while unprepared is really what we’re training ourselves to do truly one of the better videos teaching or self self-discipline so easy to throw the towel in and go back inside he stuck it out which makes you better prepared thank you
Made me really appreciate the value of a shelter designed for wind.
This never gets old.
Most realistic survival video. No complicated tree structures, expensive gear and cooking show. Only what you need.
No cooking show? -You didn't see him cook that burger? :)
Hardcore buddy….tough conditions. Thanks for taking us along!
It was a bit rough 🥶 thanks for watching!
I've seen everything on TH-cam winter camping cluding drones ..feords..polar bears
This is the one that I've been searching for the most rugged down-to-earth cold-ass camping I've ever seen and the dude does it with his jacket wide open!!!
Kudos to you sir! The master of the cold winds!
Amazing footage and nothing special.. no drones. Just a tarp, a sleeping bag and a hamburger!!!!!!!
ya me too this is great!
To be fair I did have long johns on and a hoodie. Thanks for watching!
And chopped wood
Yes thank God for the chopped wood too because in that 50 plus mile an hour winds I got so much heat from it 🤣🤣🥵
This is the greatest blizzard camping video of all time lol. I've seen quite a few.
Thank you
That is the most rugged camping I've ever seen on TH-cam great job:)
Thanks for watching. Biggest challenge so far.

Hey thanks for watching! It was a tough overnight but I had the proper minimal gear!! Don't forget to share,like and subscribe 😀
This looked and sounded like a real blizzard, unlike many winter survival type videos here on TH-cam. Well done, sir.
It was definitely a real blizzard. One of the hardest videos I have made. Thanks for watching
i agree, one of the EXTREMELY few real blizzard videoes online.
This one was 100% real and probably the hardest video I've done.
I love it
Pretty sure that was a snow machine LMBO jk
Realistic storm not like the other channel thanks for your hard work my friend
To be fair it's because it was a real storm / blizzard but yes I completely understand what you're saying

Man froze his sack off and didn't bitch at all. Great video my good sir.
Whoop
He said he was warm all night in his brand new -10° rated sleeping bag.
How is that freezing his sack off?
yeah i'd be Bitching my ass off , lol
He's in his back yard...15:44..can see porch light in the back
Never said I was out on a mountain I actually mentioned where I'm at and you see a pole light roughly a mile away at my neighbor's farm
True survival video, well done do some more.
Myself and friend camped out in 17 degree wind chill weather once for three days. By a lake and I can tell you it got cold 🥶 real quick when the sun went down. Props to you sir.
No luxury hot tent camping here. Just basic survivalist techniques. You Rock!

Dude you are a living proof even a minimal equip in such a harsh condition, it still make do.. badassery

what's your take on Bigfoot?? serious question?? with your background in the Backcountry.
Well just because we haven't caught one doesn't mean there isn't one or a whole family. I have seen and heard weird things out in the woods and I couldn't tell you what it is could be the wind could be an animal just making a weird noise I don't know I'm not going to dismiss the possibility.

Thank you. I always try to show a real experience in my videos I don't try to show just the good parts when editing I'll leave the mistakes in there also and the struggles. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it
When the snow blew under the tarp and onto his equipment it made me absolutely shiver 🥶 Great video, I’ve subscribed ♥️ 👍
It was coming from every direction!! Thanks for watching and subscribing!!
Made me shiver too!
Thanks for watching. It was a blast 🤠🤣
Almost reminds me of March 1991 when i was visiting family in Kangerlussuaq Greenland , We set up a tarp shelter near Sugarloaf mountain got a bit of a shock when night time temps dropped to -50c and lower was a great time , but was i ever glad to get back to the Hotel the next day!
Great video, I like the bushcraft and camping videos in bad weather , rain , blizzards , windy days . It is the atmosphere of nature with the outdoor camping experience which adds to the adventure. I just subscribed too, I hope to see more of these storm camping videos.
I came to say I could find no reason to do what you did. But I read your answer and now I think you are one brave man. I thought I would never go camping with you but now you are the only one to be with under those conditions.
People get caught off guard all the time. If you have proper gear you'll be fine ☺️. Thanks for watching!!
Best camping video ever! You're terrific!
Thanks for watching
I fly these little ultralight aircraft. A neat trick I learned is sand bags. Fill them with dirt or sand & use them as weights to hold down a tent. I know you didn't have any here though. Great video! Thanks!
Yeah that would be fantastic but the ground was frozen solid LOL thanks for watching I did try to put some bigger pieces of wood on the back but that wind and snow was relentless.
This was so much fun to watch. I'm surprised your teeth didn't chatter at all--neither before or after you got the fire started. Brrrrrrr. Lived in FL all my life and I consider 50 degrees bitter cold.
WOW! YOU should get a gold medal for this video!!!!
Just trying to show it's possible to survive! Thanks for watching!!
That was really some rugged weather. You made it through that so you can survive anything.
Nice and real
More of this kind of vids please.
The best
It was a heck of a night thanks for watching and if you haven't already please consider subscribing and giving a thumbs up and sharing with your friends and family.
While stationed at Minot, N. D. while at one of our sites. I was a supervisor. The heating at the site was not working hardly at all. I slept in back bedroom, and another very cold night. So cold I slept dressed and in a sleeping bag. Cold of - 40 not uncommon. Thanks retired and old, but dues paid.
Why not Minot? Freezin's the reason. 😁 Thank you for you service, I was Airforce.
I come here anytime I need a brain boost positive attitude for a cold outing. Just try to go through it with Ryan as if you were there.
You’ll feel the cold !!!
Nice! I love being able to go on this adventure with you from the comfort of my couch!! 😂 😂 Merry Christmas Rob
Lol. Merry Christmas to you. I wish I could have gone on this adventure from my couch lol definitely a heck of a challenge
@@Ryanoutdoors Looked a bit chilly 🥶 but awesome video nonetheless. We’re heading out on a trip tomorrow, may be a little snow, but nothing like that!!
Yeah I think it's safe to say that winter has arrived LOL some areas in Minnesota recorded 70 mph plus winds with the storm
@@Ryanoutdoors That’s intense brother, I would say winter is here indeed!!
Awesome man! Nothin better than pushin through some nasty weather!
Respect from Pakistan sir 🇵🇰❤️👍🏽
Great shelter video in blizzard 🌨and also i saw you have PARACORD GERBER KNIFE ❤️
Glad I was home and warm for this one!
Looks like it is storming in your shelter. Man, has to be freezing.
I enjoyed This video more than most preparing ourselves for surviving while unprepared is really what we’re training ourselves to do truly one of the better videos teaching or self self-discipline so easy to throw the towel in and go back inside he stuck it out which makes you better prepared thank you
This is an inspirational video! Thanks for putting it together.
great atmosphere 👍
