    I bought a canvas wall tent with my brother for elk camp a few years ago. The warm place to cook and dry out is awesome after being in the field all day. It is not getting packed in but it makes winter camping so much more comfortable and better for longer trips

      I think an overlooked aspect for hunting is the ability to hang your wet gear and get it dry. Makes all the difference.

    A hot tent is a lot of work but the benefits of warmth, comfort, cooking surface and dry gear is very pleasing in rough conditions. Yes the trick is to use it for a multi day situation. A base camp for camping, day hiking, snowshoeing , ski touring, split boarding, XC skiing, snowmobiling, fishing or some activity.nice area you are, great stuff. Get a snowmobile 😊❤️🇺🇸❄️☃️🛷🔥⛺️🌄

    I use a pulk sled when I snow camp, and that way I can bring more gear for a 2-3 day trip. Depending on how far I’m going sometimes I even process wood at home and schlep it in the sled. Great video.

    I like this analysis. Any kind of camping is a lot of work and the appeal to me (as you pointed out) is that it does keep you busy...In a good way! I found that the more busier you are, the more comforts you add to the experience. This hot tenting thing is definitely on my bucket list. This is coming from someone that only knew cold camping as an option. Cheers!

    Perfect description of both the pros and cons. My stove tent is too bulky for backpacking, but helps me get out to dispersed car camping sites in the winter that are normally crowded in the summer months. Lots of work for sure, definitely good to have a buddy or two to divide and conquer all the work it entails.

    Well that was a good video worth a sub ! I am planning to equiped myself in a hot tent and stove in the future , maybe when I retired . Right now I am doing cold tent camping for 1 to 3 nights as I like to change camp once in a while. I alway's bring my sled for gear , snow can get very deep where I live. As you mention , when cold camping , sleeping time is alway's around 7- 7:30 . I do make a fire around 4 ( already dark ) , and enjoy it until 7 . A hot tent would be nice for the morning or when the weather keeps you inside . Thanks for all the pros and con

    Great realistic video of hot tent camping! Impressive you managed to stuff all that equipment into the deuter 55 😀. When we hot tent we put snow all around the tent skirt to remove any draft, and if the tent handle it, up along the walls for insulation. A light titanium stove doesn't radiate that much heat, there is a reasons why native Americans used teepee. Good old fire pit in the midle is so much better. Silnylon doesn't insulate, it just prevent wind, so what we do is using a big tarp, shaping it and making sure it's possible to have a firepit going, put a mesh net over it so the tarp doesn't get damaged. We make sure the sleep system is overrated for the trip and when it's bedtime we close the tarp, it's more important to get good sleep than constant putting firewood into the stove. This is probably like swearing in church, but to be honest.... Just bring a makita duc101z or similar , it makes wood processing extremely comfy. The pros are it's light weight, quiet, and last long time with a 6 ah battery, cons it's kinda cheating, but is it really? And bring usb heated pads. Put them in your chair, on your body strategically, in your sleeping bag. UNLESS you want to go survival mode camping during winter. Never underestimate the cold, and if it's windy too, you better bring the correct clothing. Just some thoughts from Norway.

    • @BackcountryExposure
      @BackcountryExposure  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Attaching the inner tent to the outer tent with cold bare hands in cold, freezing temperature weather is not something I'd want to deal with.
    Excellent point, about burning in the memory of the roll up stove pipe.B4 taking the stove out into the field for an overnight adventure.
    The design/engineering of that Winnerwell Titanium stove is attractive when compared to older heavier & poorly designed older stoves.
    Carbon Monoxide detector - excellent that you emphasized its importance.
    9ºF is c-o-l-d.COLD. Fortunately there doesn't appear to be any strong gusty winds which would have been even colder when you factor in "wind chill".
    You can NEVER have too much processed firewood.
    Your chest pack - Brand? What were you carrying it in?

Then I just tied 10' lengths of cord with a bowline to those rings and then stake them out. Not super tight, just snug. The rings don't get hot so there's no worry in the cord melting.

    We be don’t get very much snow these days in Scotland. Unless we climb up to the highland summits. Looks like you’d benefit from a pulk in that environment. Great video I enjoyed it.

      I'd also imagine with wild camping in your area, a wood stove wouldn't be the best as it'd draw attention to your camp?

      @@BackcountryExposure I'm on the Coast. So it's basically 3 seasons. Winter backpacking is the same as Spring and Fall. With fire restrictions. I had plans to use my Firebox a lot but last year's Winter storm wiped out the area I could actually use it. Then fire restrictions kick in and the beach is basically the only place I could have a fire.

      @@steveolesen8033 I am genuinely asking. If you’re going to make the statement, stand behind it and tell me.
      I wasn’t miserable and it’s far from my first time using a hot tent.
      The stove pipe is rolled and secured as instructed by the manufacturer, and doesn’t leak. The stove comes from a reputable manufacturer and sure it’s small, but that makes it easier to carry in a pack.
      Snow skirts aren’t required on a tent. Piling snow around the edges is also an option if you don’t have snow skirts.
      My sleep system is/was very comfortable and appropriate for the conditions, and I had all the necessary gear to enjoy myself. So what part of it gave you the impression that I was miserable? What hazard am I missing that I should be mindful of? I’m genuinely asking here.
