When you said, "The wind is going absolutely crazy...", I was thinking, "Hell, yeah. Listen to it HOWL!" Then I paused the video - and the howling was just the sound of my heat pump as I enjoyed my coffee in bed. You're such a trooper, Abel.
I live vicariously through your videos. Since I turned 70 I now surrendered to state parks with full hookups in my insulated 20' camper with queen bed. Keep it up as long as you can my friend.
@@AbelandVictoria not surprised my friend. Whether it's a chill out camp or an extreme weather survival adventure, I'll be there with you in spirit. The pasta and meatballs was a great choice mate but a little surprised you didn't add some chilli flakes for added heat in that icy weather. Thanks for the work you do to create great content in your videos Abel. Love watching them. Regards to Victoria.
So many camping TH-camrs, yet this channel is "must watch" for me. Love the variety of conditions and the enjoyment you derive from being out in the most intense situations. Hope Victoria is well! Be safe!
After 10 years in the army having to ‘camp’ out in this kinda weather, now I’m 63 I still love it ! There’s no better feeling than when there’s a storm and you are nice n snug in your tent with a roaring fire , listening to the wind and rain outside. ( a hip flask of brandy for my coffee helps ) It’s the packing up in the morning I hate ! Great video 👏👏
It's the cleaning of the gear when I get home is the part I dislike. Drying everything, cleaning off the mud, making sure nothing mildews. Worth it though. Especially if you brought your fishing gear.
Great Video. I'm a Old Man From the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. I still do the same type of camping as much as I can. I love winter camping. Love this video Brother
As a young teenager, how 74, used to camp in this kind of weather in old canvas, bottomless tents when in the boyscouts. Minimum equipment. I was usually firstup in mornings starting the campfire. Then we'd spend the day hiking sometimes upto 10 miles! Missita lot. Thanks Abel for taking me back to another time ! Great vid !!
It’s always good to test your gear and yourself in trying conditions. Being able to trust your gear and yourself is a confidence booster and takes away a lot of the stress in difficult situations
Wonderful to hear about your new little girl. I'm sure when she is grown enough she will be camping with DAD and loving it too. You will need to pack more hot dogs. Best to Victoria.
Love watching these videos. Very entertaining, reminds me when I used to go bush back in the 1960s. I was younger then, now I'm knocking at the door at 70 and still going bush once or twice a year. Thanks for sharing your entertainment.
I live in South Florida and I love to watch these winter storm videos in the summer to stay cool. I am very impressed with your photography and your cooking! Keep 'em coming!
Abel thanks for another great video I love r he enjoyment you get b out of camping I would love to be doing this it looks like fun and peaceful thank you for sharing love the sound of the snow hitting the tent until the next time friend stay safe out there
I’m currently camping in a WW2 small walled tent made of canvas. It’s summer here in the UK but bloody wet. The rain is just mental & this tent leaks a lot! I appreciate your struggle to bring us these videos
I suspect they used to treat tents like that back in the day--waxed the canvas, or was Scotch-Gard a thing back then? I think it was. Maybe that would help?
Just a short note to let you know I so much enjoy your videos, please continue making them. I can't get out of the house much now because of my leg but I love camping especially when it is cold and snowy
Also if people knew the feeling you have when you get up in the morning and have a hot cup of coffee by the fire. It is a time you will not forget to sit and reflect
Wow, this snowstorm camping adventure is intense! The combination of heavy rain, strong winds, and snow makes it a true test of survival. Abel & Victoria’s determination and resourcefulness are inspiring. I’m amazed at how they set up their tent and tarp despite the challenging conditions. Kudos to them for braving the elements! ❄️🏕️🔥
That's the kind of wild camping I like... hellish weather, but you know that you have all you need to keep you warm and dry. I do like nice sunny weather, but a night like that with shelter, a fire and good food is great fun. Out in the wild with just the basics... do it right and you'll be fine.
Unquestionably my favorite camping weather, I always check the weather to find the worst weather. I like the satisfaction of being totally comfortable and really terrible weather and cold conditions. .
That looked unpleasant & bitterly cold on the walk up. So glad you detoured to the hut to warm up. Dont put your health & safety at risk. Enjoyed the Video...cheers
I love these winter videos when it's SUMMERTIME in Arizona! Crank up the cooler and a fan, turn out the lights and imagine wearing some warm, waterproof gear, like Abel has on, in a sleet/snow storm.
Incredible resilience! Camping in a snowstorm is no easy feat, but you made it look manageable. The transition from snow to heavy rain added an intense challenge, yet your shelter held up impressively. Your determination and skill in such harsh conditions are truly inspiring!
Big 👍🏻Your a brave man , facing that wind and weather. I would have stayed at that shelter. But i would have braved that weather for some of that spaghetti. My favourite food👍🏻💛🙏🏻🇺🇸
Good you could recognize the early signs of hypothermia and took shelter to warm up. Awesome adventure, you got to experience the full range of winter weather conditions.
Its 78 degrees Fahrenheit here in upper Michigan, USA. Summer for us. Watching you drink that coffee and listening to the wind blowing and thinking I'm cold, I need a cup of coffee. Then reality hit, oh yeah, its not my storm. Sit back and enjoy my cold Monster.
Hi Abel, thanks for the video. Good to see your bit about hypothermia. For the non-camping newbies you never know, it could be life saving information for someone. Also congrats to you both with the baby girl news from a previous vid.
Good day Abel, I from Mexicali BC México 🌞, my Town ITS very hot in summer, and o enjoy see the camping travels like Abel & Victoria when the weather ITS cold jajajaja 😅
Brilliant camp, and I have to be honest! I have such a busy life, I tend to skip through videos...................... Not this one, watched it all the way through, just captured my attention. Even though I am the opposite site of the globe, I could fully see through experience where you were coming from! Cannot say more than what a brilliant adventure and video! Thankyou Abel for sharing!
As a person born in Puerto Rico and started RVing (Retired) in the US, I really admire how you guys do it. With just the equipment and gadgets you bring along. I couldn't picture myself or my wife doing that at our age anyway especially in COLD weather..Love your channel..and subscribed..
I’m just happy to get to view the video 7 minutes after it was uploaded and I’m 47th like and 168 view of the video. I guess I’m weird like that. Ty Abel for putting the content out I truly enjoy it.
Great vid, hope one day soon, the family will be camping together. I do enjoy watching you going on your trips, I love when it's raining heavy, or blizzarding. Anyways be safe you and your family, take care from Canada.
I saw splendid camping.🏕️ It is beyond my imagination.😮 I have never camped in snow.❄️ But, on seeing your video, I shared the same experience.✨ I enjoy beautiful camping, too.🇯🇵
That was some very challenging conditions for camping! With the very high winds, rain, sleet and snow. Plus how cold it was. But it was a very good camp. You should do a video called Processing fire wood and starting a fire even if the wood is wet by Abel. 👍 I enjoyed watching, thanks for enduring the harsh weather for us!
I love the coziness of being in a GOOD tent, properly staked down and guyed out during a storm. (But please don't make the rein last more than overnight.)
Best part is waking up , when it's raining, hands on chin just looking out watching the rain hit the fire , while drinking a wake up coffee to get started for the day ahead........ 🏕️⛺🙏🏻🫂
Any chance of us starting some Abel and Victoria lore and saying the Weka is actually the same one everytime and actually follows them around. It needs a name!
Abel you are definitely a true outdoorsman! I could just sit here and listen to you talk all day! The pasta looks so freaking good so now I'm starving all of the sudden lol! I admire you dealing with the weather conditions and still manage to have a great experience. I love the wicka bird. He would make the perfect camping buddy. You could make him a little plate of pasta too.😂 Loved everything about this video! Sending love from Ohio ❤️
I ❤ your program they are funny and I worry about you in bad weather and you are all way laughing and having biscuits tea like a little boy.keep it up 10:17
Hello Abel, aka Ginger man, another great video, and of course, the wicker makes there presence. LOL That was some storm for sure and love to see so many stars in the sky.Look forward to the next ginger man🇨🇦❤
This was intense!! You’re stronger than I could ever be! I would have just said F… it & stayed in the cabin! Thank you for pushing through ❤️ How beautiful was that snow & how my mouth watered for wagu meatballs & pasta 🤣 Keep the videos coming 👍😃
Thanks for another awsome video! I really appreciate all that you go through for your learning experiance and for us. Also all the great food and the way you cut firewood! Take care my friend.

@@BlackPete... lol
First of all that is just not true, second of all, if your heart is beating fast enough to sound like wind then you’re probably going to die soon.
I live vicariously through your videos. Since I turned 70 I now surrendered to state parks with full hookups in my insulated 20' camper with queen bed. Keep it up as long as you can my friend.
😂
@@mayomonkee836he said heat pump not heart pump 😂
Thanks Ginger Man in the Wonderland. Another great camp mate, and good to see you are back in your element. Look forward to the next adventure.
Thanks Ian. Still waiting for the big snow. ❄️ might need to do a more chilled out camp next I’m feeling a bit sore

I agree!
Your dedication to the camping craft is magnificent! Under such extreme conditions, you still ensure we have an excellent episode to watch. Thank You!
Thanks very inspiring
It's your voice along with smile. I'm 78 and I get calm and centered as you organize the nature 😅😊
❤❤❤
No joke braving the elements like you do, good kit definitely helps.
Always a great watch.
Excellent video….there is just something about being out camping like this that makes you,feel alive and worth living…Thank you Abel!
Nobody does epic storm camping like Abel...epic storms, epic brew, epic food.....
Haha thanks. It takes a lot of effort but it’s my favourite type of camp
Epic high tech gear as well
After 10 years in the army having to ‘camp’ out in this kinda weather, now I’m 63 I still love it ! There’s no better feeling than when there’s a storm and you are nice n snug in your tent with a roaring fire , listening to the wind and rain outside. ( a hip flask of brandy for my coffee helps )
It’s the packing up in the morning I hate !
Great video 👏👏
Favorite time to camp up here in the UPee of Michigan is winter and I camp for a few months straight while cutting tons (literally) of balsam.
CAMPING, FISHIN AND HUNTIN GO TOGETHER ALWAYS 😊❤😊
All caps and comments never go well together.
It's the cleaning of the gear when I get home is the part I dislike. Drying everything, cleaning off the mud, making sure nothing mildews. Worth it though. Especially if you brought your fishing gear.
❤❤❤
Great Video. I'm a Old Man From the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. I still do the same type of camping as much as I can. I love winter camping. Love this video Brother
❤❤❤
Abel, just keep making the same videos over and over again, because I really, really enjoy them 😊😊
Imagine he stopped 500 meters before or after his favorite place, then we had no idea where he was! 😮😊
The food prep out in the wild makes it taste sooo good! Love the pasta and meatballs idea!!😊

In my warm blanket in Sweden, rain and wind outside, watching you meatballs, fire and rain. Love it!😊
I am from Wyoming, USA and I just LOVE those birds!!!!We don`t have anything like that here.....What a gentle little spirit!
@@scottpetrich1346 Weka
Yeah we do.... We call them Mexicans....
@@romanteni 🤣😂👨🌾👽🌮
@@AbelandVictoria Can Weka be tamed? I mean as far as their behavior, not local law.
I have a weather radio. I don't camp in the rain nor snow.
It’s always good to test your gear and yourself in trying conditions. Being able to trust your gear and yourself is a confidence booster and takes away a lot of the stress in difficult situations
That was great idea, setting the tarp up before the tent.
Wonderful to hear about your new little girl. I'm sure when she is grown enough she will be camping with DAD and loving it too. You will need to pack more hot dogs. Best to Victoria.
Love watching these videos. Very entertaining, reminds me when I used to go bush back in the 1960s. I was younger then, now I'm knocking at the door at 70 and still going bush once or twice a year. Thanks for sharing your entertainment.

Congratulations on the arrival of a special little person. All the best to you and that lovely wife of yours. Being a daddy looks good on you.
Awesome video, the fire, the camp the food and the snow, and well done for waiting out the windy conditions, thankyou.
I’m currently camping in a WW2 small walled tent made of canvas. It’s summer here in the UK but bloody wet. The rain is just mental & this tent leaks a lot! I appreciate your struggle to bring us these videos

Yes scotch guard the canvas tent, like it was 1960’s.. it water proofs the tents fairly well.
Omg … I was getting chilled just watching this!
Just a short note to let you know I so much enjoy your videos, please continue making them. I can't get out of the house much now because of my leg but I love camping especially when it is cold and snowy

I love cooking like this. Everything tastes so good. And you sleep good at night.
Just love how much Abel loves his food!!
Eating the meals while camping is always so good
lol
I think the same bird magically follows you around to every camp!
this is one of my favorites... you show that sometimes it does'nt go as planned. good that's you've stopt to warm up.

Cuantos cambios en el clima me encanta ver ese viento exelente vídeo gracias por compartir ❤🇦🇷
Smart move to go to that cabin and warm up , that is a strong tarp the wind is some thing else. And nice wood bashing you never let me down lol
Thoroughly enjoyed this one. Epic camp with extreme conditions along with excellent cooking. Abel at his best!!
You are the only one that camps in those conditions brilliant ❤🇬🇧
Him and Tony @ABCamping are two of a kind and should go on a camp together.
Tony cherishes his screen time
If tent is tint ....how is tint pronounced 😊
I wouldn't say it is brilliant. It is dangerous and he could die of hyperthermia.... Just to make a video. How stupid...
Só o barulho da chuva em uma barraca ⛺ já é um calmante relaxar sóbre o MESMO e uma fogueira Auuuuuuuuuuuuu parabéns criador 👏👏👏
I’m so glad you speed up the chopping of the wood, some u tubers expert you to watch the 1st 40 mins watching them cut wood .xx
Love your videos! The sound and video quality are amazing. I can almost feel wind and the cold! Thank you for sharing!
Rain ! Snow! Wind! Everything miserable all at once! Enjoy.
I love it
Rain, snow, wind....MY KIND OF WEATHER!
Nice you have that safe spot on your way. Thanks for the Adventures.

Either looking for it's chicks,mate or a place to roost because of the storm probably
@@editingreality4779 She just wanted to get warm, I suspect. Cute lil thang.
Sorry for late,.... thank you for showing us new food combinations...as always love the chopping Woods...my favourite part ❤️❤️😊
The food looked fantastic!!
Thank you so much for that video. I enjoyed it immensely. I didn't want it to end!! More please!!
hey able another fine video as always , hope Victoria and the baby are doing fine , keep them comming
Yep we all good thanks
Love your camping adventures!! Thank you for sharing. It’s like I’m there without being there!!
I love how the automatic subtitles think the rain is "Applause"
😂ya they are clapping

Your videos makes sound asmr for sleeping
Watching you sat in the wind and sleet, I felt I should be tucked up in a warm sleeping bag (if possible to keep warm)
Great channel, the conditions make it a must watch, very challenging
Reminds me of camping on the Oregon coast.
Wow, this is a great camping experience! Keep warm😉
This is what we all want from "wild camping" videos. But glad you took shelter when you did.
