      You can.. sign up for doordash/uber eats, work for a week or two then take a week or two out in the wilderness. Rinse and repeat

    When I winter camped for several weeks I had a second full cover over my tent and I used cardboard and foamboard in between to help insulate it.

    Down in Florida caring for my mom....33 degrees this morning which is unusual but watching your video first thing this morning made mefeelat home. Can’t wait to come back to mts and put upmy pacific dome. It is quite luxurious but as an artist the space is nice. I love living closer to nature and becoming part of it instead of blocking it out. I sure love your video

      Thank you for following, Kathy! Yeah, Sierra is so much fun and I feel fortunate to have such a great travel companion with me. We are currently in Arizona trying to purchase a small off-grid ranch so I need to post an update video this morning to let everyone know what's going on. Hope you are having a great start to the weekend, thank you for tuning in ~ Brian

    I spent a year living in a tent in a commercial campground in Colorado not far from there. I miss it so much! It was my favorite place to live and hoping to incorporate the best parts of that lifestyle after my kids are grown.

  • @marioula21

    me being a person with no tolerance to cold whatsoever (i got frostbites on April), seeing you touch the snow with bare hands, brought me anxiety and cold hands..!!!!!! snow scenery looks amazing though!

  • @kkrot81
    @kkrot81 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    LOVEEEE your videos! Love Sierra 🐕! How you live is beautiful! I’ve never seen that much snow. I live in tornado alley in Texas. Our weather is hot here so much when a cool stream comes thru it’s 🌪. I’ve sadly never experienced snow like you have. When my last of 3 kids (youngest is the last one left at home and in high school) enlist into the Marine Corp I am going to buy a skoolie/rv/something 😉! I crave it yearn rather for full time travel in the US. 🏕

    Love it, you have a super nice setup,lots of work to keep things going, I have like 5 tents ha slept in the high mts and the swamps,froze,wet,sweated never seen a tent that does not leak best thing in winter I ever bought was all wool clothing and wool blankets that is how the old times made it in da bush,wish I was there Love It!!

  • @morganbeasley
    @morganbeasley 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome man, most Americans have no idea how cozy a winter tent with a wood stove can be. If you havn't screwed your stovepipe together with some sheet metal screws you might think about that and guying it out with wire to the tent poles perhaps too. I'd hate for strong winds to separate your pipe leading to unsafe conditions.

    Those panels reduce huge with just a little bit of obstruction - so if you are clearing your panels make sure you get everything off - it makes a huge dif! The newer panels are a tad better. I have new & almost 8 year old panels.

    Great vid, looks like a beautiful spot. Watch out for the vestibule pole with the snow, mine collapsed under some wet snow and had to be replaced. I wish it was a litlle more robust like the tent poles, seems like they undersized it for the load it needs to support.

    Brian,
    Ever consider using a diesel portable heater to augment the stove? Less work, no condensation like propane, sips fuel. May give you a break from the constant “feed the beast” wood stove.

    • @OffGridBackcountryAdventures
      @OffGridBackcountryAdventures  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Micmac, I thought about it but I prefer the wood stove for ambiance. I really love working with a stove and it's great for cooking. I've been around a few diesel heaters and they all seem to have a little bit of a rhythmic knocking noise which I think might bother me while I'm trying to sleep.

  • @davidmesser8619
    @davidmesser8619 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Greetings. I started watching this at about 6:30 a.m. When I got home I couldn't get the internet. Tried again with the same results. I decided to examine the inside of my eyelids. Finally I got the internet back up, but I had to start over. I had two minutes left to watch and my wife says, dinner is ready. I knew better than to ask if I could have two more minutes. When I got to finish, it would not let me start where I left off. So, I fast forwarded to my spot that I left off. I can tell you that it was worth the hassle. Great show Brian. I hope that you get a another foot of snow. Take care my friend. Vaughn
