  • Winter Camping in Sub-Zero temperatures (-26C) can be dangerous but if done properly you can enjoy yourself just the same. On this solo camping adventure I hiked back into the forest to the bushcraft camp. I had to cut a lot of firewood to get through the cold night ahead. Before dark I cook up a beef stew over the campfire and enjoy a cold beer before going to bed. In the morning I found my water, bacon and eggs were all frozen because of the extremely cold temperatures. I managed to save the bacon and melt the water for coffee. It was a long cold windy night but I made it through and hiked back out after a campfire breakfast.

    Hey folks. Hope everyone is having a great holidays and staying safe out there. One thing I forget to film was the temps. WIth the plastic down and fire going I had the inside of the shelter up to +15C when the outside temp was -20C. Pretty good temp difference I'd say. Once the fire went out though it was just as cold as outside! Cheers,

    You can cook eggs that have been frozen. The only reason farmers throw them out is because the shell cracks and bacteria from the hens' bottoms could get in and contaminate the egg. In your situation, there's no exposure to contaminates and the time from crack to pan is short, so they are safe to eat. 💖🌞🌵😷

    Just a suggestion for all, always always carry plastic, by using it over boughs as well as front towards fire will contain more heat and prevent wind and rain from dripping down. Also Russian all night fire helps . For those who criticize plastic as not purist, remember all the things your carrying that you've bought including expensive packs. Just a thought, really appreciate your videos, nice to watch to relax in these times of negative news. God bless, stay warm, keep sharing with us. Thank you.

    Great video man. I’m jealous of your camp!
    Give this a shot next time: before bed, boil a litre of water and put it in a Nalgene bottle (not stainless steel), and then stick that thing in the bottom of your sleeping bag. It will retain warmth for hours, and you’ll have water for the morning.

    Hey buddy if your going to do some more winter camping, You need to make a self feeding camp fire. They will feed them self all night long! and you can sleep like a baby lol lol ..... And for a nice cover for the front of your camp, There is this Black cloth that is used on gardens to keep weeds from growing. What it has is one way microscopic holes in it air can go only one way through it So the heat from the fire can go in and wont come out...

    A Hot water bottle is a good thing to have... enough to keep you warm at night.. on a cold morning you'd have enough luke warm water to boil for your coffee or to wash your face. also keep a wool sock.. and keep a bottle of mashed eggs in the bottle.. that goes inside the sock..that way you can keep it inside your shelter..and it won't be solid stiff in the morning.

    Hey. Next time you go winter camping in that temp. Put your consumables that can freeze put them near hot stones before you go to bed. And keep that fire going for your sake. Set your watch and warrant your sleep times to two hr intervals. You never know what might happen. You know. Anyway keep your stick on the ice.

    Hi Josh Merry Christmas . Under lessons learned we saw that you needed more bigger logs that were longer as well. That way the burning would last longer & provide a more spread out heat. I love winter camping but only if I can stay comfortable at night. Live & learn. Stay Safe & God bless . Thanks for the video Brian 80

    • @JoshuaGammon
      @JoshuaGammon  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Your 100% right Brian. For a cold night like this I should really have a long fire. This shelter is a little to small for that right now. When I started I just sorta keep building and then bang. Didn't plan for it. I'll keep that in mind next time for sure. Cheers and Merry Christmas 🎄🎄

    • @JoshuaGammon
      @JoshuaGammon  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Sandra. I never thought of that but your right. Breaking the ice would give them water access for a bit. Try winter camping sometime. Just stay close to home or the car until you fine turn you gear and experience. It's not that much different then summer. You just need more warm clothes and practice getting a fire going in all conditions.

    I went on a fishing trip in February after a long days work. I had my winter gear on and fell asleep in a chair with no shelter. I slept until sunrise. When I woke up my body had shut off circulation to my legs and arms to preserve heat. My legs and arms were numb. I had some heavy gear on and thankfully I didn't get frostbite. It wasn't near as cold as the temps in this video. -26c is equal to -15f here. I've been ice fishing in -15f and it was brutal. Some of the worst conditions I've ever been in. I like watching survival videos because one day I might be homeless.
