    • Extreme Cold Teardrop ...
    Mike decides to test the limits of the very capable NuCamp Tag teardrop camper by taking it on an overnight camping trip in extremely cold temperatures. How did it go? Watch and find out!
    Update: I've received quite a few comments regarding cooking inside the camper. While I did take precautions and the camper is always ventilated when I'm using gas appliances indoors, I do not condone this activity! Do it at your own risk!!
    There are also many comments about my clothing and I should have talked about this in the video.
    I did have a down coat with me. I had 3 layers on underneath my hoodie, which is a very thick and warm hoodie to begin with. My jeans are lined with flannel plus I had long underwear on. I had 2 layers of socks plus toe warmers in my work boots. I also had a pair of warm gloves in addition to the gloves you see in the video. Not to mention the extra insulation I've put on over the holidays! 🐷 I was actually quite comfortable when I was moving around and didn't even need the down coat!
    The filming location of this video will not be included in patreon data, as I’ve decided it is in poor taste to pay wall this free campground. However I would prefer to keep this location hidden as it is a special place for locals and I will likely use it again for future videos. If you are interested in knowing more about this campground please feel free to send an email.

      I lived in Alaska from 1989 to fall of 2019 with rarely renting an apartment because I lived in my truck camper.
      Winter night cold was - 10 below to - 20 below and I didn't have any electric you just do without.
      Day tempetures in Anchorage run around 32 degrees

    I lost my home a couple years ago and live in my 40 yr old RV made of wood and polyurethane skin with inch and a half thick walls. This winter not being too bad so I was able to keep us warm at 65-68° with my electric radiator heaters. (My furnace no longer works) Last winter got -10° and we struggled to keep it at 50-55° inside. I had to stay bundled and my dogs huddled up and I covered them with a quilt. Being disabled keeps me from being able to do repairs but God has been with US and kept us sheltered so I'm not complaining just sharing how camper life has it's challenges. But overall it's been pleasant and we are happy. 👍

    I built a 10x6 6.5 tall on a tent trailer frame and upgraded the axle. 2x3 walls and plywood with a galvanized metal roof. Metal insulated house door chopped down and one window over the sink. Diesel heater, exterior vented and interior fed garbage hatch. Murphy bed, 40” tv, generator, shore power hook up, manual foot pump sink from water jog to bucket. USB shower stall/ bathroom. I moved it onto a farm a few weeks ago and moved in full time. It’s doing me perfect and I don’t mind the minimal set up at all. It’s standing height and still has enough room for doing my work outs inside. I got shire power here and Ben a covered slip for winter. I’m so glad I decided to go this route, best decision ever.

    I have a Black Max Lil Guy and yes, during cold winter camps there is a lot of condensation. Run to your nearest Wally World and purchase a box or two of desiccant hanging bags. My ratio is like one bag per night and condensation is near nullified. Just a possible help in staying dry in cold camping, staying warm is another thing 😁🖖🏼

    Great video! My wife and I camp in our runaway camper throughout hunting season and condensation is always a problem. I recommend removing everything when you return home and letting things dry out. Our mattress developed some mold spots on the edges from getting wet so many time from condensation and not being removed. Live and learn. Just a recommendation. Keep the videos coming 👍

      I would also like to add to check & air out your things in the summer, when the humidity gets high.
      Had a problem with my AC not working durning 1 trip, on a high humidity weekend.
      Went out again on a following weekend trip, only to find that some mold spots had started to grow in my tiny shower area & under my kitchen sink.
      Thank God I caught it & was able to kill the mold with a water & bleach solution & letting it air out after.

I also liked the fact that that you have become more practical and safety conscious in the way which you conducted your extreme cold weather "experiment" in your teardrop camper. I have also left the "watch this" mindset of my youth behind. Thank you for posting this video, it was enjoyable to watch.

    I've go in my T@g to -30 C. One tip I would give you is that an ice fishing hut (the quick, pop-up kind), with a Buddy Heater, works quite nicely to give you the extra space (and stand-up room) as well as a nice warm spot to cook and eat. For me, colder than -30 is not worth the risk, as I am on my own, usually in places with no cell service, and if something happens, I would be in serious trouble until help came.

When making a fire set your paper or start up material in the middle of the pit , take kindling and make a tp type of structure with your sticks then light it and build from there.

    Pro tip- In very cold weather With your tab invest in a all the fashion twelve volt windshield defroster. This is a small electric heater that runs off the twelve wolf power plug. It can not heat the cabin But it Does take the chill off of it so you're not going in ice cold.

    Hi Mike, I enjoyed this video. I also own a Nucamp T@G and love it. I have not used our trailer yet in winter, and also am curious about how our trailer would handle the extreme cold. My wife wants no part of camping in winter, and up here in CT they’re aren’t many places to go camping in the winter months. I am curious about you using the little buddy heater, and also the propane stove inside your unit. Did you have the vent open for ventilation? I would be fearful of not having some ventilation. Anyway I enjoy watching your videos a lot and you seem like a cool dude. Cheers 🍻 Jerry C

      Thanks Jerry! Yes, I cracked open the fan while I used the propane appliances. As for camping in the winter, you can’t beat the solitude if that’s what you’re looking for! Thanks for tuning in!

      Too much condensation from buddy heater. What you don't see is the moisture that forms behind the walls and such. Thus damaging your trailer over all over time.

    • @robertwhite3752
      @robertwhite3752 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@anthonyg1968 that’s why you get an adequate fan for condensation. I use Mr. Buddy heaters in all my set ups and they do a fine job.

    Thank you for the video about these Tear Drop campers . It's good information and now I see how these manufacturers aren't doing too well making them airtight . Obviously there's alot of room for improvement. Those areas where frost developed are because of air leaking and wind drafts. --maybe throwing a canvas tarp over the trailer with tie downs might help reduce that .

    We had a Little Guy 5 Wide and sold it. The reasons we bought it was our CRV can tow it, a guy in Ohio won it and sold it to us new for $5K! How do you like it and why you chose a teardrop?

    • @NowhereBoundAdventures
      @NowhereBoundAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      We like the teardrop for many reasons, most of all the ease of towing, off-road capability and overall efficiency. Plus it still “feels” like camping. I’m going to be making a video about this soon. Thanks for tuning in!

    • @funyunmaker3182

      I have a butane catering stove that is designed for indoor use but it is a good idea to always crack a window when using any open flame.

      Butain stoves are safe to be used inside .... The stove he's using is a backpackers stove...definitely not advisable in a camper that is basically nothing but bedding materials.

    Near Zero… that’s T-Shirt weather. I wonder how it would fare at -20F, -30F, -40F. We do snow shelters down to -50F here in interior Alaska. It stays surprisingly comfortable in a snow cave at -40F. Some aluminum foil, reflectex, and a couple of tea lights will bring it up above freezing.

    Are you really pay walling a Free campground that cost you ZERO dollars to camp at ? Big Yikes.....

    • @NowhereBoundAdventures
      @NowhereBoundAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The main reason I don’t want to divulge the campground info out into the open is because it’s a special place for locals. I also happen to make all of my location data available to patreon subscribers. That includes free camping spots, hiking trails and 4x4 routes everywhere. However I’ve decided not to include this campground in my patreon data because I do agree with you that it’s in poor taste. If you want to know the campground info you can send me an email michaelofca@gmail.com. I will make a note of that in the video description. Thanks for watching!

I worked in 30 below for 12 - 16 hours a day outside on the Sea of Okatash in Russia on a crab ship; but at least I had all the gear, I was working (attempting to stay warm), had hot meals and a warm bunk. Showers were weird in storms. But I loved your video. I'm working on and overland build but was pondering whether I could actually build a 4 season camper. Thank you for you video.

    Used to have a group of 10 or so that got together ever month fall, winter and spring. Ocean, lakes or mountain. Had to have water around. In the NC mountains we ran into some really bad winter storms with sleet, rain and snow but we never quit. A tear will fit almost completely in a large EZup type cover with the solid walls. Major help. We have wagon trained them and covered with huge tarps. If we had electric we might have had a small heater. Campgrounds would all be empty but for us. Too old for that now and the people stopped but great times for all for about 6 - 8 years. We would do a 'Trailer trash Christmas' gathering the first weekend of December with enough decorations for suburban block or two for each camper. A lot of fun to see who could have the most overdone decorations.
