@@tidelinetoalpine I'm floored at how comfy my mattress is...kinda excite to get back to my camper to sleep on it. Boy it's chilly here this morning at camp, -4F with a stiff wind from the north. Loading more wood in the stove so we can thaw out! Hope you're having a great start to the day, Amanda! Give Frank some lovin' from us.
Hi Brian. So Beautiful. But let me say. Your strength, agility, ability to cope, and most of all, your love and devotion for Sierra is what I love ❤️ about watching. My continued prayers that Sierra conti ues to beat the odds.
I hope Sierra will continue to be ok. I lost my 90 pound lap dog, Wrangler, to cancer last summer. He was ten and we didn't even know he had it. Less than a week and a horrible shock. I see you cherish her and I'm glad to see that. Their lives are so infinitely precious.
Yes our babies are so precious. I lost my adopted 7yr old adopted Chihuahua to heart failure and had to help my baby cross...I'm still devastated and so broken 🐾🥀♥️🙏✝️my condolences to you...
Thank you Cristina! I agree, our furry family members are so important to us. I feel so lucky to have Sierra with me on these adventures. Hope you have a great weekend! ~ Brian
Hello Brian!!! thank you for sharing your adventurous life style with us all. and i love all that snow and the views. I hope you and Ms Sierra stay nice and warm and all the above. keep rocking on!!
Hi Brian and Sierra. Such a beautiful place and such Gorgeous snow ❄️❄️❄️ I sure hope Sierra is doing good. She is a beautiful little girl with the prettiest brown eyes. Have a great time and stay warm. ❤️❤️
Man! That sucks about the site being unbuildable because I fell in love with it from the first video you did up there. Hope you can get your money back brother, keep the vids coming, they help get me through my workdays when I see them pop up 😎👍
With most real estate transactions in the US, especially land, it's up to the buyer and his/her RE broker to gather any useful information on a property (land, home, home w/land etc...) during the feasibility period (due diligence period) to help a buyer make the decision to buy or not to buy a property...Hope this helps!
I love how she looks at you and then looks around the room sometimes when you start talking like, "Um, dad.....there's nobody there...." LOLOLOL! LOVE her!
Haha, she's such a trip! I swear she's part human with her facial expression at times. She probably thinks her human has a few screws loose :) Have a great weekend, Shelly!
@@albertmeursault thank you for tuning in! I'll keep the winter camping videos coming until Spring gets here. This is my favorite time of year to camp, the scenery is absolutely incredible. ~ Brian
Thanks Suzanne! It's so peaceful out here with very few human made noises - the occasional plane flies overhead, every once in a while you'll hear a snowmobile...other than that it's dead quiet. I absolutely love the solitude, Sierra is enjoying herself as well. Hope you have a great start to the weekend! ~ Brian
Really sucks about the site not being buildable and having to take legal action 😢. Good so see ya finally get a big dump of snow. I’m enjoying your video while hauled up in a small town high up in the Oregon outback waiting for a little snow storm to pass. Lots of love to Sierra 💜
I've seen a few places claiming this where they don't want you to build. And they want limits to stays. I don't think its right. I wonder if it can be fought, and if they are just doing this to prevent new society evolutions of progression where people want to be free. I think there's incentive to keep people paying rent in the cities. Its also hard to know when you look at land, it feels like its a crap shoot. You can't tell on any place if they will have similar rules somehow. They seem to be able to throw up road blocks for anyone.
I was already hurting bad from a fall on ice. One look at all that snow in just the thumbnail, and the work I assumed you were about to encounter, and I was ready to call for an ambulance.🙂Thanks for the video.
I look at the 2" here at Old HIppieland in the Uncomphagre Valley and think I am ok with only 2" and i will just enjoy seeing your 2'. Sure hope the bad land deal gets straightened out for you. Peace and Love to you and Sierra.
I know I've watch at least 80% of his vids and love them all. Love his passion for camping and the fact that he takes great care of Ciera. But as a gay man. He is very handsome as well. I normally focus on the tent, weather, the fire/stove. Oh and love love the Tacoma! I had a 2006 same color. Handsome guy ladies and he seems like a great person.
Looked like a good storm! Smart to have all of that dry firewood. Harvesting is fun but sometimes in not practical when you are in those type of conditions. Great video!
I need a new mattress. The one I have isn't bad. But it's too firm for me personally. I like a bit more cushion. But like you said "I sleep hot", even during the middle of winter I have a box fan on and sometimes even have the window cracked, cause if I get hot or feel too warm getting into bed it makes sleeping SO much harder and a lot more uncomfortable. No one likes waking up slick in their own sweat. I also have arthritis at 28 and muscle/nerve damage so finding a mattress that could help with all that or make me forget about my aches and pains when I am sleeping would be ideal. Love watching how you and Sierra interact in your day to day. I can tell how much that dog loves you and it's so heart warming. You always make sure she is cozy, warm, and very well fed. I LOVE that you call her "Stinker" it makes me smile everytime.
Love the new tent! For your interior flooring, is that a large canvas sleeping bag for the floor? Why did you choose that for the flooring? Warmth? What you had extra? Have you thought about what to use if not the bag?
Hello, I'm actually camping in a meadow behind my friend's cabin. We made some "roads" out here for the snowmobiles and I'm camping along one of them. Have a great weekend! ~ Brian
Sierra is so lucky to have you. This may be a silly question but am wondering if the place where your tent is set up is buildable? Or is the whole property impacted by the mudslide?
Thank you, great videos, and information. What type tent is this. Been looking at the Kodiac from a outdoor super store. Thank you, Looking forward to your next video.
Hello Brian, this is the Shackelton from Ellis Canvas Tents. Dave Ellis has been making these canvas tents by hand for 30 years. REALLY great quality, lightweight for ease of transport, and simple to set up. It's an investment but I love it! Phil from Down2Mob Overland rocks a Kodiak "cabin" canvas tent and he loves it. Those are great if you don't plan to move the tent very often (takes 2 people working together to set it up). Have a great weekend! ~ Brian
Bummer about the property, hopefully can get refund. Haha I coulda told you Sierra just wanted more "goodies" to eat 😂 Boy get your workout shoveling that snow
When the snow get sthis bad, does it tear the tent or collapse it? And any advise on preventing that? (from anyone). How do you know how much snow the roof can take before tearing, etc?
If you ever buy land, you need to get a soil test and survey and make your contract contingent upon it. These two will advised you if the land is buildable. This equivalent to getting a home inspection on a house. Never buy land with these two. Yes, it is nonrefundable fees for the service but it will save you a whole lot of money in the long run.
Hey brother, I live in Colorado Springs and am really wanting to get into Hot Tent camping and get deeper into bushcraft… If you still own this property or have any good suggestions of somewhere I can find some good dispersed snowy spots this winter please let me know :) I’d shoot you a camping fee if your location would be available 👌🏽
Hey Bryan, I actually just sold that parcel and I will be doing all of my winter camping in Northern AZ. It's odd to say this but they get way better accumulation than Southern Colorado but the season is a little shorter. I'm not one to give out winter camping info since it's so hard to come by but I will tell you to look into the county maintenance road schedule for areas that you want to hit. Lots of times there are old homesteads back in the forest on the county road maintenance schedule and those roads will be plowed. This allows much deeper access into the backcountry during winter. Most of the trails are closed but you can find a few trail systems that are still open all winter (mainly at lower elevations). Hope this info helps, have fun out there. ~ Brian
Did you purchase this site unseen? I know you were at someone else's site that you thought was yours prior. I adore you and Sierra, I'm like angry for you right now.
Hi Jamie, no the realtor told me the wrong parcel. It's been a complete mess but I have everything in writing so my lawyer is confident we'll get a favorable resolution. Hope you have great weekend! ~ Brian
Sounds like you really love the spot other than that you can't build. Who's making that call, county, insurance? Not sure what your goals are, but can't build what? A "legal residence", or something more akin to a "storage" building? One compromise might be to attempt to have sellers help cover cost of pouring a big concrete wedge above the building sight to deflect potential mud/rockfall. Not an easy project, but doable. Hard to judge level of risk just from the vids, but looks like you have some pretty significant exposure to being hit from stuff coming down from above, so if you don't end up getting out of the deal, you'll want to address that one way or another.
Silly question….where do you “toilet”? Being a female…need to sit to do that private stuff…. How do you manage in the snow? I have heard stories of names being written in the snow… And I know my hubby has peed plenty in woods when we camped…but always had toilets nearby.

Are there ways to get around the no building such as on the platform and wheels so that it can move. Love the snow.
Hello. Awe Sierra is so cute ,all curled up on the bed. I just lost my Chocolate Lab “ Hershe” about a month ago, she was 12 yrs old.
Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear about Hershe!

I agree, harvesting in the middle of a storm can be exhausting! Very thankful for this stash of hardwood. Hope you have a great start to the weekend!
I was hoping Barron and Ilsa were going to visit you, they also have a great channel,
Why not try to put some little buckets over your tent Stakes so the snow can't cover them up do you think something like that may work

Yep, the road is completely socked in with 3.5'-4' of snow. It's a winter wonderland around here!
Snow sounds cold.
It is...☃️❄⛄
@@bubbasizemore4556 Of course. That snow in particular. Crunchy is really cold.
Thanks for the cool videos Bro!
I'm off-grid in Arizona.
Two inches of snow and I start getting mad 😁
Hey Eric, whereabouts is your land? I have 14 acres north of Juniper Mesa Wilderness Area. LOVE the solitude out there!
I want you to show the temperature when you set up and the temperature after your tent is heated.

Snowy here in Utah, too.
How's Starlink working out for you? Good in cloudcover?
Whats the temp inside and outside?
Who needs a gym when ur shoveling snow like that several times a day
