I loved winter when I was younger. Started skiing when I was 10 years old. That was 1958! Cross country skied as an adult along with Alpine. Would sit on a big rock or log and eat a sandwich. 76 now and I cannot do it with CHF after a heart attack so fun watching you get to do it.
Your fire building skills are impressive! I don’t think I could start a fire in the snow like that. Not much experience being from Alabama lol. New subscriber! Love the channel and your truck build!
Awe, thanks so much!! You know I grew up in the south and wouldn’t have known how to start a fire in the snow either! I learned how to do it once I moved north 😉 Thanks for being here and for your kind words.
Hey! Woods Fan, I have the same backpack! I bring it to the beach loaded with tools for making forts out of driftwood. I put a stainless-steel pasta cooker insert in bottom of the pack which would make the pack stand upright all on its own. The perforated pasta pot is great a great place to hold valuables from getting buried in the sand, collecting stuff, underwater strainer etc. I load a thin solid board cut-to-fit, in the pack, located closest to my back. I torqued it down stiff to stop stuff from moving around. At camp, removed from the backpack the long thin narrow board makes a great even worksurface and table. In the lower external side pockets of the Deuter pack with water bottles, I strap on tight a 4" X 12" Marshalltown flat trowel for digging deep square holes, removing the top layer of hot soft sand, and digging 4’ feet deep square holes to drop and backfill for sand vertical driftwood post to make rain / sun block canopy and wind blinds on the side. I love your video. This is the first one I’ve seen. Thanks, Woods Fan!
Thanks so much for your kind words! Your setup sounds very thoughtful and well executed. How cool! I haven’t done much camping or shelter setup on the beach but it seems exciting. And, I do love my pack! Just the right size. I’m glad you’re here. Cheers!

Hi! I think that’s a great idea. As long as the limbs are strong and the snow isn’t too heavy it can be a natural respite from the storm. Thanks for sharing!

That's my idea of a fun outing!!
Me too!! ❄️
Nothing like a fire in the snow! Coffee a big plus!
I fully agree!!! 🌲❄️☕️

@@TheWoodsyWoman My pleasure :)
Photography is professional and excellent.
Thank you for your kind words! And thanks so much for watching!

Thanks so much!!
Winter wonderland at its finest ☃️ you forgot to build a snowman!
Thank you for you kind words! A snowman would’ve been great!
Beautiful
Thank you for your kind words. I’m grateful you enjoyed!

I don’t understand why a person wouldn’t put their tent under one of those cedar/fir trees. It’s a natural canopy and keeps the wind off.
Hi! I think that’s a great idea. As long as the limbs are strong and the snow isn’t too heavy it can be a natural respite from the storm. Thanks for sharing!
The snow can easily fall off the branches and crush the tent.
