Greetings from Russia! It's good to see that there are such outstanding people in India who enjoy traveling with a hot tent and a wood stove. Let me give you some advice. Always place logs under the stove. Snow melts and the stove may become unstable if there is no solid foundation underneath it. It’s also a good idea to place aluminum foil under the stove to prevent the snow from melting. When using a wood stove, always fill it completely with wood before lighting it. If you want to use kerosene or gasoline to light a stove, do not pour it into the stove, but rather saturate paper or fabric with it and set it on fire. To avoid breaking branches with your hands, I recommend using a saw. I really like Silky saws, made in Japan. They allow you to quickly saw through even thick logs. It is also good to use a short machete for preparing firewood for a stove from branches. To sleep on the snow and not in the car, you can use a heat-insulating mat. The best of them is Termarest Neoair Xterm. I would also recommend that you use a down sleeping bag. A very interesting experience is making a fire in the snow. I can imagine how beautiful it is in the mountains of India, the great mystical Himalayas, where the starry sky is so close!
That is some great advice. Thank you! I did not understand the part about filling the stove completely with wood before lighting it. I was under the impression that you need a lot of air circulation in the tent for it to burn well.. so the advice feels a bit counterintuitive. But I do agree with the other points though.. I have added the Silky Saw in my Amazon shopping cart and will try to find someone traveling from the US to carry it for me. Thanks for the recommendation.
Thanks for the answer! When using a wood stove, forced air supply occurs. Therefore, combustion processes go differently than if the firewood burned simply freely. Therefore, if a little firewood is placed in a wood stove, then they will quickly and intensively burn. This is a consequence of an excess of air. But for a wood stove, long-term uniform burning is better suited. Therefore, it is necessary to fill the entire combustion camera with wood. Then the combustion occurs in optimal mode for a long time. This is provided by the optimal ratio of air flow and the surface of burning firewood. At the same time, coals are also formed. When the firewood is burned, it is necessary to move the coals closer to the door of the wood stove and again completely fill the combustion chamber. You can adjust the intensity of combustion by changing the flow of air. Air circulation in the tent occurs when the wood stove is working due to the traction created by the chimney.
@@hikewomeatOh wow! That is wonderful information. I was not aware of this fact and it makes total sense when I think about it. I was burning small quantities of wood in my stove and was not happy that it burned off quickly. Now I know why... Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information.
@@indiainmotion The titanium lightweight wood stove is a very useful piece of equipment. By the way, such a wood-burning stove can be used not only in cold weather, placed inside a tent, but also in the summer. To do this, it is necessary to equip the upper part of the chimney with fastenings for attaching ropes. In this case, the wood-burning stove can be installed outside the tent. This way you can cook a variety of dishes, for example, fry onions or bake bread, which is not very convenient to do over an open fire. As you know, Russia has a fairly cold climate. Therefore, the experience of using stoves to heat houses has a very long history here. There is another specific use for a wood stove. In Russia and some Scandinavian countries, the phenomenon of using a sauna is common. Most often this is a small room containing a wood-burning stove equipped with stones. There is also a water tank heated on a wood stove. People enter this room completely naked, taking with them brooms made from oak or birch branches with leaves. There they pour water onto the hot stones and as a result hot steam is formed. Using brooms, people direct steam onto their bodies. After it becomes difficult for them to withstand the high temperature, they come out and are immersed in cold water, and in winter in snow. This is repeated many times. This is a very healthy and pleasant procedure. Some people do this in outdoor, using plastic film to create a small space where such a sauna is set up.
Thank you all for sharing this dialogue. I have a hit tent and a similar stove and am yet to experiment with stove inside. Great tips. Many many thanks. By the way I live in a high altitude village in Kumaon Uttarakhand. If you happen to be there you can reach out. Village Hartola before Almora
India in motion, I never skip your vlogs on Zanskar,I really appreciate your hard works, I can't afford to come there but please keep going on,how I longed to travel to Zanskar with someone like you,,,,please do more and more on Ladakh .
Hats of to you Saravana Sir. 👌 vlog. Very beautiful. You are very lucky to be amidst the Nature. May the subscribers and patreons increase many millions.
Saravana!! Your dedication to capturing the essence of the Himalayas is truly inspiring! Camping in a hot tent with a wood stove just goes to show your unwavering commitment to your craft. Can't wait to see the breathtaking footage you'll bring back from this adventure. Keep shining your light on the world! ** As I am from Northen Kullu region, i have a lot of childhood memories attached with the wood stove (Tandoor) especially in the winter ❄️ our life used to revolve around the tandoor. We used to cook on tandoor and everyone use to sleep in the kitchen for the warmth during the winter months. When you put petrol on the wood to lit up I was like..No No. Don't 😮
Thank you so much Vijay.. I was just wondering about you yesterday and so happy to see your comment now. Honestly I'am not sure how much I will use this hot tent.. the tent and stove is much heavier than my regular setup, so i will definitely not be carrying it on longer hikes. The main reason i got the stove is to use it at the back of my car, while living in it during the winters.. but the winter is almost over now and i may not get a chance to use it this season. Lets see.. Hope you are doing well.. look forward to seeing some new content from you soon.
There it is! "India In Motion" is back and full of emotion! The visuals were great, as usual. That final walk with the background sound was terrifically well executed. Cheers to Sravana and his enthusiasm!
Let's see.. It is a heavy setup (~4kg for the tent and the stove).. so can't really hike far with it. I would still prefer to hike with my regular tent even if it means losing out on some warmth in the evenings and nights. This hot tent will only be for camping trips that are a short hike from my car.
@@indiainmotion I would love to see you cooking on your camping trips but all that matters is to see you having fun. I will come back for more of your content
Sarvan sir i request you to please continue with such detailed camping videos, they are very calming, informative and very amazing. Same with the car camping videos as well. Also the gimble worked perfectly this time and i know it would be very helpful when you are alone
Thanks Sandeep.. I'm using the DJI Pocket 3 this time. The camera is tracking me without the need for a special gimbal.. also its wireless mic is what enabled me to capture those ambient sounds when I'm far away from the camera
Saravanana your chimney is little long if you use it in high wind it might fall and you can carry fire starter it is more safer and easy to store. Rest as always pleasure to see you and congratulations on your new Jimmy..... 🙏🏻
Yes, I understand the issue, but that's is nothing i can do about the height of the chimney. They have provided loops on the spark arrestor for this purpose. Yog can tie guy lines from the spark arrestor to keep the chimney in place during high winds
You are truly the child of the Himalayas! Its always a pleasure watching your incredible videos! Keep up the great work u are doing and thanks for sharing the amazing facets of your life with us❤
I'll try vaseline soaked cotton balls and camphor on my next trip. As for your other question, your hand is not really in much contact with the sharp edges while rolling the chimney so i don't feel the need for the gloves
Excellent capture of your winter camping adventure. Word of caution...Do use the working gloves while dismantling the stove. Any injury being alone in this weather is not a good situation. The question I have is how to do you access a location to camp and ensure it isn't in the path of wild animals and what precautions do you take? Be safe and keep sharing...best wishes.
Thank you for the support Ganesh.. wildlife is not really a concern, except for bears. I check with the local villagers about the presence and danger of bears in the area before going camping anywhere
Great as usual. It seems that your Ecosport is replaced by new car. Last year we had visited pipiting, zanskar during summer. Stayed at Mr Tenzin Thuktop's home stay. Nice place, lovely people. Thank you Saravan for showing us Zanskar in winter. Love from Dr Sudhir - Maharashtra.
Great video, I suggestion i can make is instead of petrol you should use kerosine to start the fire it burns steadly and safely unlike petrol which is highly flammable.
Yes.. kerosene is not easily available these days.. but someone gave me a bottle of it after watching this video.. Also i will be carrying camphor and vaseline on my next trip to help with starting a fire.
TH-cam is not showing the video notification even all notification are on. I always search the channel when i am missing your video. Your video's are like theray to many of us. Keep this work going❤❤❤
Yes.. the second time I splashed petrol into the stove could have ended very differently. I was a bit unprepared on this trip, next time I'll carry kerosene and other fire starters like camphor and vaseline
Agree.. the previous day i had cleared the snow from the ground before pitching my tent in the same area. But this time I wanted to try camping on top of the snow to see how it would go. It is all part of the learning experience.
In snow just go with flow if you start making alternative it's hard just enjoy life as it is chill and be warm with less things not with modern technology that's much easy
Bro you gotta take all that snow out and reach the ground for this to work... If you want to use a stove like that. If you want to build over 2 ft of snow, only those canister stoves will wrk, since they generate much less heat in much less area, probably only to boil water or warm up pre-prepared food. If you don't mind, check out another TH-cam channel. Outdoor boys. Love that channel for their camping trips. Lots and lots of good tips in there.
There are fireproof mats available to use with these stoves on snow. I will try them this winter if the chance arises. It is not always possible to dig out the snow if it is more than 3ft deep. This was a trail camping close to my car and it served its purpose as i learnt a lot from it.
@@indiainmotion yeah. Heat proof mats work, but only for a few hours. Eventually your tent will also get nice and toasty. Then the snow starts melting. With this big a stove, it's best to get to the ground. Agreed, it's not always possible to dig 2-3 feet of snow or if the snow is layered with hard Ice. Keep those videos coming. They are quite nice and a good watch.
Hi! Did you receive your Jimny? I remember that you booked for one. Personally, I like your old 4 season tent and the gasoline stove :) I found a copycat version of your 4-season tent with less price - NatureHike Cloud-Peak 2 :)
Ofcourse.. the 4 season tent is for more serious trips when you hike for long distances.. the hot tent and stove is just for short camping trips when you want to camp out in relative comfort. Each have their one purposes. And the Cloud Peak tent does look like the Hilleberg Soulo and the price is amazing as well.. great find. I got the Jimny.. you can check the 'Rebo on Wheels' channel for videos about it.
Thanks for sharing. Just an advise never our fuel directly like that. It’s dangerous. You were lucky. Use simple kindling. Watch a chap called Lone Wolf. Pls be safe
Great video as always! I've always been curious though, why do you use this open style tent? I mean usually tents are completely enclosed, with a layer that sits at the base and connects to the top part. I've always seen you use this type of a tent without a base. Is there a reason for that?
Those fully enclosed tents are useful during winters when it is important to stop wind from coming into the tent.. i will use them when the situation demands it
I can imagine one those "progressive" Soccer Mums going on trip like this saying to her friends upon return, "This trip was so transformative, I felt so totally in sync with my chakra (which they pronounce incorrectly, kind of happens when one culturally steals/reappropriate another's concept without understanding its true meaning). My body & soul became one with the universe through deep transcendental meditation. This occurred, with 15 servants 20 pack horses carrying a 5 star Yurt, satellite internet, all provisions & other modern ammenities etc to setup a snow palace high up on a valley. 😅
As soon as you were going to splash the petrol in side the stove...i was like..no no no noooo!!! then when you lit the match...again I was like noooooooo!!! been there..done that 😆
Haha.. I managed to get a bottle of Kerosene after that debacle. Also will experiment with camphor and vaseline soaked cotton balls to see what works best
@@indiainmotionhaha, all good ideas! that's the best part of making mistakes, it challenges us to think more! 2 cents from me, raise the stove height a bit by using stable, flat rocks and store your additional wood below the stove to act as insulators to avoid/delay melting.
@@splitzable Using wood under the stove as insulation is a terrific idea.. i can definitely see it working and will try it on my next outing with the stove. Thank you
Yes.. i realised it and thankfully without getting hurt. I have since then procured a bottle of Kerosene and will also experiment with other options like camphor and vaseline soaked cotton balls to see what works best for me. It is all a learning process right now
@@maheshm619 Absolutely.. Look out for the next video on the Rebo on Wheels channel where the Jimny took me to places that i would never imagine going in my Ecosport
Hi, that was not a good idea pouring petrol...I think you should join me next trip to Siberia, you are welcome, I am Dr Kuldeep, expedition Dr, there you can upgrade on camping on ice and snow
Thanks Esther.. Yes, I have prepared a small tin of vaseline soaked cotton balls to use on my next outing. Also have a small box of camphor to supplement the cotton balls.
Regular videos keep subscribers in touch. But when you are uploading videos once in a blue moon, that touch will be lost. Although your videos are great to watch...
I understand that... but i was never motivated by the views and subscribers and the growth of my channel. My main motivation has always been to seek out interesting experiences for myself and the videos are just secondary. So I don't think that regular videos will every be a thing on my channel..
@@indiainmotionExactly, but I never meant that. I never meant about subscribers & channel growth. It is we as regular subscribers want to see more and more of your videos.
Not really.. what will you do if there is 6 feet of snow or even deeper. It is not possible to clear all that snow. There are heat resistant mats that you can use below the stove to prevent what happened in this video.
@@ligma_o.oIt was 2 feet of snow.. And I did clear the snow when i was camping at a different place, a day earlier (see a similar video on my 'Rebo on Wheels' channel). But for this day, I wanted to try camping on compacted snow. It was all for the purpose of learning (since it is less risky to camp on 2 feet of compacted snow, instead of 6ft). And in that aspect the trip was a success as I realized a few things that i did wrong and won't repeat the same mistakes the next time i go camping on deep snow.
It was a planned trip to experiment with different styles of hot tent camping.. The car being nearby was no coincidence. There is a different video on my other channel (Rebo on Wheels) where I had shoveled out the snow to setup the hot tent on the previous evening. It is all part of the learning process with the new equipment.
@@indiainmotion Thank you bro...If possible, please support once from your community. This kindness of yours will be remembered forever brother. Maybe one of your support will success my life.
He has a life too you know. Dude works hard all year but needs some rest too. Nobody can travel in such harsh environments all year and survive without taking breaks to recuperate.
True.. and also i don't want my life to be dictated by the content i create.. it will then become like a job and not something that you do for enjoyment.. so my schedule for uploading videos will never be consistent like others.. also with ageing parents I'm spending more time at home these days and don't find the time to travel like i used to earlier.
@@indiainmotion Sorry for an off tangent question.. Have you ever considered getting married? Or did your parents force you to get married and settle like other mortals? 😅

Hi Saravana, as usual amazing, don't you feel afraid being alone in such places, anything can happen.
I'am afraid sometimes if there is a lightning storm or if I know that there could be bears in the area or even large packs of feral dogs..
@@indiainmotion stay safe Saravana
Great work sir great going❤
Thank you
Outstanding vlog ❤❤👌👌👏👏
You can start using starter wood if we get in India to start fire. No gloves required while unrolling the chimney back to bottle shape?
I'll try vaseline soaked cotton balls and camphor on my next trip. As for your other question, your hand is not really in much contact with the sharp edges while rolling the chimney so i don't feel the need for the gloves

Its a Jimny -> @reboonwheels
Amazing. Loved it
So glad!
Terrific content as usual !!
first time seeing some one from india using this stove tho, seen this on Outdoor boys channel
Never burn petrol in a closed space, petrol vapors burn too quickly and fire can reach to the source like magic.
Yes.. the second time I splashed petrol into the stove could have ended very differently. I was a bit unprepared on this trip, next time I'll carry kerosene and other fire starters like camphor and vaseline
Great vlog as always… addicted to your videos 🔥 you could have dug deeper for that tent area before pitching. But you put lot of hard work man🫡

In snow just go with flow if you start making alternative it's hard just enjoy life as it is chill and be warm with less things not with modern technology that's much easy
Happy to see you after a long time. I guess you should use fire starter for burning fuel and carry an axe with you. Just a suggestion, Thanks.
Axe is too big and heavy. maybe I'll carry a foldable saw in the future.. my swiss knife also has one
congratulations sir for the new car
Thank you
At this moment I felt like I could have helped u pitching ur tent

Ofcourse.. the 4 season tent is for more serious trips when you hike for long distances.. the hot tent and stove is just for short camping trips when you want to camp out in relative comfort. Each have their one purposes. And the Cloud Peak tent does look like the Hilleberg Soulo and the price is amazing as well.. great find.
I got the Jimny.. you can check the 'Rebo on Wheels' channel for videos about it.
Thanks for sharing. Just an advise never our fuel directly like that. It’s dangerous. You were lucky. Use simple kindling. Watch a chap called Lone Wolf. Pls be safe
After long time such a nice vlog
Thank you 😊
Great video as always! I've always been curious though, why do you use this open style tent? I mean usually tents are completely enclosed, with a layer that sits at the base and connects to the top part. I've always seen you use this type of a tent without a base. Is there a reason for that?
Simple.. it is for the weight savings.. the pyramid style tents i use now weight around 800g compared to the >2kg tents that i used to use earlier
Those fully enclosed tents are useful during winters when it is important to stop wind from coming into the tent.. i will use them when the situation demands it
I can imagine one those "progressive" Soccer Mums going on trip like this saying to her friends upon return, "This trip was so transformative, I felt so totally in sync with my chakra (which they pronounce incorrectly, kind of happens when one culturally steals/reappropriate another's concept without understanding its true meaning). My body & soul became one with the universe through deep transcendental meditation.
This occurred, with 15 servants 20 pack horses carrying a 5 star Yurt, satellite internet, all provisions & other modern ammenities etc to setup a snow palace high up on a valley. 😅
Which car are you using now?
Jimny
thanks
ASMR level
Good
bro, dont u encounter wild life like snow leopard in such places???
I've seen wolves, and foxes, Ibex, Blue Sheep etc while camping.. but never Snow Leopard. Fingers crossed to see one sometime.
the chimney didnt collect any soot inside?
It did.. not too much to worry me at the moment. But will have to clean ur after a couple more trips
As soon as you were going to splash the petrol in side the stove...i was like..no no no noooo!!! then when you lit the match...again I was like noooooooo!!!
been there..done that 😆
Haha.. I managed to get a bottle of Kerosene after that debacle. Also will experiment with camphor and vaseline soaked cotton balls to see what works best
@@indiainmotionhaha, all good ideas! that's the best part of making mistakes, it challenges us to think more!
2 cents from me, raise the stove height a bit by using stable, flat rocks and store your additional wood below the stove to act as insulators to avoid/delay melting.
@@splitzable Using wood under the stove as insulation is a terrific idea.. i can definitely see it working and will try it on my next outing with the stove. Thank you
Nerver use petrol to start fire! Quite dangerous! A friend of mine got really bad burns by doing this. Took months to heal...
Yes.. i realised it and thankfully without getting hurt. I have since then procured a bottle of Kerosene and will also experiment with other options like camphor and vaseline soaked cotton balls to see what works best for me. It is all a learning process right now
Are you back in Himalayas?
yes
Nice
u are in my village and i didn’t know that wish that i knew before this vlog so that i meet you and help you to build your tent 🤣
Nice.. I did visited Jispa during Tsechu and had dinner with the villagers in your community hall. The momos were great!
Which car was tht..? Didn't look like ecosport
It is my new car.. The Rebo (on Wheels)
Hellooo.. How was the Jimny performing in these conditions ? Did a more capable car provide more confidence on your adventures ?
@@maheshm619 Absolutely.. Look out for the next video on the Rebo on Wheels channel where the Jimny took me to places that i would never imagine going in my Ecosport
great man with zero haters 😉
Here is a hater 😂😂
Thanks
Thank you Suresh
Careful with the fire bro. Use cotton balls.
Yes.. im planning to carry cotton balls coated with Vaseline/petroleum jelly in the future
14.31 life on toss😮
Hi, that was not a good idea pouring petrol...I think you should join me next trip to Siberia, you are welcome, I am Dr Kuldeep, expedition Dr, there you can upgrade on camping on ice and snow
❤❤
Good❤ jullay
Julley.. kaha ho aap.. aaj kal?
Please be safe, use petroleum jelly and cotton to start the fire. Fuel is dangerous.
Thanks Esther.. Yes, I have prepared a small tin of vaseline soaked cotton balls to use on my next outing. Also have a small box of camphor to supplement the cotton balls.
Regular videos keep subscribers in touch. But when you are uploading videos once in a blue moon, that touch will be lost. Although your videos are great to watch...
I understand that... but i was never motivated by the views and subscribers and the growth of my channel. My main motivation has always been to seek out interesting experiences for myself and the videos are just secondary. So I don't think that regular videos will every be a thing on my channel..
@@indiainmotionExactly, but I never meant that. I never meant about subscribers & channel growth. It is we as regular subscribers want to see more and more of your videos.
Nice video sir but its basic camping knowledge to first clear the base snow before hot tent camping.
Not really.. what will you do if there is 6 feet of snow or even deeper. It is not possible to clear all that snow. There are heat resistant mats that you can use below the stove to prevent what happened in this video.
@@indiainmotion True. If you don't have those mats, you can make a base with some tiles or bricks or some wood as a workaround.
@@indiainmotion Ohh okay, i thought it was 2 3 feet of snow. my bad and stay safe
@@ligma_o.oIt was 2 feet of snow.. And I did clear the snow when i was camping at a different place, a day earlier (see a similar video on my 'Rebo on Wheels' channel).
But for this day, I wanted to try camping on compacted snow. It was all for the purpose of learning (since it is less risky to camp on 2 feet of compacted snow, instead of 6ft). And in that aspect the trip was a success as I realized a few things that i did wrong and won't repeat the same mistakes the next time i go camping on deep snow.
@@amanthind4591 Using wood as insulation is a great idea. I still try next time.
U should have cleared the snow first bro, it was dangerous in these situations thank God the car was close to u
It was a planned trip to experiment with different styles of hot tent camping.. The car being nearby was no coincidence. There is a different video on my other channel (Rebo on Wheels) where I had shoveled out the snow to setup the hot tent on the previous evening. It is all part of the learning process with the new equipment.
Kindly Support brother Your big fan frm Siachen Gilgit Baltistan ❤
Just subscribed to your channel.. very interesting
@@indiainmotion Thank you bro...If possible, please support once from your community. This kindness of yours will be remembered forever brother. Maybe one of your support will success my life.
You need to watch videos of @outdoorboys to learn these skills. Seems like you are still a rookie.
Now you are also polluting the air like other TH-camrs with firewood just for your views
You just disappeared . Please be consistent . I was waiting for your video like spring.
He has a life too you know. Dude works hard all year but needs some rest too. Nobody can travel in such harsh environments all year and survive without taking breaks to recuperate.
@@anupdev5845 agree 👍
True.. and also i don't want my life to be dictated by the content i create.. it will then become like a job and not something that you do for enjoyment.. so my schedule for uploading videos will never be consistent like others.. also with ageing parents I'm spending more time at home these days and don't find the time to travel like i used to earlier.
@@indiainmotion Sorry for an off tangent question.. Have you ever considered getting married? Or did your parents force you to get married and settle like other mortals? 😅
Be careful regarding the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning with such a stove in your tent.
oh man 😂 tent jl skta tha
Not tent.. but my mattress and the ground sheet were in real danger of catching fire.
ohhhh bhai sikh k karo
