I want to add a few details about this trip that I have been getting questions and comments about. Regarding wind break, the wind direction of my campsite was very favorable, the main force of the wind was hitting the big trees behind my tent, but occasional wind gusts where hitting my tent from the foot and head end, those are the strong gusts you can see in the video. I angled my tent so the gusts would hit the less exposed foot end, with occasional gusts hitting the head end. This spot was nice and flat and had good snow for anchoring my tent well, I dig down my Helsport snow pegs, my hiking pole and my ice axe to provide solid anchors, so I had no need to use the snow shoes as additional anchors. A consideration in this wind regarding tree cover is also to make sure that the trees I shelter behind are strong so they don’t have a chance of blowing down and hitting me. You are not allowed to cut branches off living trees so cutting branches off to shelter closer to a tree is not an option.
Greetings from Arizona! FANTASTIC! Loved the video. Gale wind and blizzard conditions and you went camping,! You're one tough cowboy my friend!! Lolol. I subscribed! Love Norway! Look forward to seeing more content from you. Thanks for taking us on this adventure it was great!
Друг, я из России, много раз смотрел твои видео, и как я тебе завидую, белой завистью. Я мечтаю так пойти в поход, но погода не позволяет. Такая метель бывает один раз в год. И то, снега очень мало выпадает. А так, это моя мечта!!! Большая. Спасибо тебе.
I like watch your videos at night before sleeping. The sound of nature is relaxing and just plain beautiful. Thank you for the quietness of the videos without the loud "car salesman" talk in many other wilderness/backpacking videos.
How cosy it is to watch you do what I love In an environment as such, thankyou for your endurance which I know you also love. These wild weather adventures are the best 😊
The Tempest : sonate in black and white. You don't need "dreaming of a white Christmas", you'll certainly have it. For us in Flanders snow is a decorum that is poetic on the country, but causes a lot of problems in the cities. For you, Norwegians, Sweden, Finnish, its part of daily winterlife. In seach weather conditions we stay in our homes near the fire. You, you love snow and icy temperatures, you cann't resist to defy it - as you already did by minus 20, isn't it, in the snow but without stormy conditions. Setting up your tent this time wasn't easy . But as an experienced man, you went through all this. Very brave ! Thanks , Jarl, for letting us participate at your adventure !
What a great feeling, the fist good winter camp. I love the isolation, the desolation. Knowing there are no people with in at least 20 miles of you and the closes road is 10 miles away.. by your self in the face of nature.. I can not longer get out there like I used to.. at 70 the cold seems to go right though me these days.. But I remember... Thank you for this video.. it was like being there again for a moment
Thank you for taking me along with your video. I've never camped in snow. A regret of mine. I actually lived in snow country before and even taught skiing. But now I get cold when the temperature dips into the 6o's (Fahrenheit) and put on thermals when it gets into the 50's. I can still enjoy the beauty of the snow in the pines and the majestic mountains veiled by snow storms and clouds. Thank you again.
I hate the cold long winters. And I am a norwegian! But, there is a surtain gratitude after a trip like this. The warmth of a fire, dry clothes and a grogg! Transl. Grogg : a good hearty drink! 👍🇳🇴❤️
My dear Norwegian Xplorer! You are seriously craaaazy! But this was awesomely beautiful. I grew up in Minnesota, and we would be sleeping in on a "snow day" in weather like this!
Winter camping is basically suffering management in my opinion! Good job getting after it and going out to test yourself and your gear against the elements. I enjoyed the video.
I grew up in simular weather conditions like that. Always loved grabbing some gear for the day and getting out. Some folks don't understand how someone can just go out into that kind of weather. I always say, "no one out there to bother you". Can't wait to move back home next year. I really enjoyed the video and thanks for sharing. John.
It’s very cold for me, my country in the winter temperature about 12-18 C and 1- 2 C on the highest mountain. I have learned life in winter snow. I think it’s very hard for me to go outside. Thanks for sharing and learn how to face the snow storm. 🙏😊👏❤️
I'm glad you survived the night by - 10 !, Jarl. From my armchair (!!) I enjoyed the poetic picture of the snowcovered pinetrees - a Christmas postcard ! - such as I imagined them when I was young in the Bjørndal-saga, covering the whole surface of Norway. :-) The music was in the blowing howling wind that merciless swept the icy snowflakes into your face. Although you cann't resist going out even by tempest, you are a courageous man, Jarl. Thank you for enduring the cold adventure !
Wow I❤️it ... Enchanted Forrest in winter snow storm it is only that I get to go there cause you take me there all the time thank you always for videos ✌🏻❤️😊...👍🏻🧗⛷️🏔️🌟 Your videos are so therapeutic to me....
Beautiful scenery, looks absolutely too cold for me to be anywhere close to those conditions, so I thank you for taking us along and sharing this video. Now, I must venture to the kitchen to get some hot chocolate to warm up after watching this video 😀.
Jarl! 👋😀 This was super awesome! Love storms. They make everything so much more interesting. What a lovely forest. We just had a big snowstorm come through here in Oregon. Winter is amazing. Another great video. Thanks so much for taking us along. Always enjoy it! 😊🐝🙏
@@DeborahRose2885 My brother lives in TN and the tornado missed them by a half-mile. So, I do understand that storms are not always "interesting", in fact, they can be devastating. However, I am not speaking of devastating weather here, but merely storms that add to an experience in a positive way.
Because he could!! - Your outro walk so transformative, loved that! "Soothed" at the end of this frigid & adventurous trip by the sight of your snowshoes kicking up dust ❄
I loved this video, it almost seemed like as if I was there with you. I could almost feel the cold there watching this in my bed. Stay safe, thanks for sharing.❤
Tremendous extreme weather wilderness filmmaking! A cinematic gem. I love everything about this film, in particular you falling over in the snow as you break down your tent - and the night-time tent setup scene where you kneel and take it all in. Great opening by the way! ✌🏽
Yes pretty cool trip I myself would invest in a small pop-up with a floor in it in a good tiedown system to make it easier to set up and at least have a floor but hey that’s just me everyone does their own thing
Cool, I have several good winter tents, this is a Hilleberg Soulo, known for being one of the strongest 4 season tents there is..made in arctic Sweden.
I come back to this video regularly. Which camera did you use more and which one has better quality videos? Iphone or Gopro? I have Gopro and thinking to add a good camera phone for detailed shots.
The worse the weather gets the better that Hilleberg looks! I’ve got a Black Label back ordered, I plan on using it in the cascades and maybe down on Aconcagua one day. Super awesome gear!
@@NorwegianXplorer well my over the next two years is to climb all the major volcanos in the cascades. I’m from the east coast so it’s going to be quite the chore. But you know, I’ve got all the climber’s pipe dreams Ama Dablam, Alpamayo, Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, that kind of stuff. I wish I was as close to winter conditions as you up there!
@@Papershields001 Cool, its gonna become winter conditions here for a while, but I thought it got wintery in the cascades as well, or does it just get wet?
Loved the video and the heavy wind and snow. I find your videos really peaceful and therapeutic 😇. Wouldn't it had been better had you set your camp between the trees, you'd have been saved from some of the wind.
I love the landscape of your country. In Vietnam we don't have snowfall. If there is, it is only ice, but only in high mountains like Sapa, Mau Son. so we don't feel the cold like you're experiencing
Excellent, there’s so few posts on winter camping where people know to pile up the snow to help insulate the tent. I would recommend larger snow shoes and if possible a small candle in a safe container. There’s something about a flame that makes a difference on these trips. Cheers from Canada.
Thank you Marcus, a candle sounds like a good idea:-) I normally use skis for the whole winter season, so I will prob switch to those now as snow piled down last night:-)
Perfect Jarl…I was asking you about “below timberline video “…but this is a great surprise! …and yes I watched the one you suggested “Femundsmarka” …great stuff man, keep on packin! 😻
I'd like to say your crazy, but I love doing the same thing. That is a great tent to set up in the wind. I have never seen a tent like that before. Hope to do my first winter backpacking trip of the season soon.

Если нельзя ближе к деревьям, тогда у меня не осталось вопросов про выбор места для палатки. Очень хорошо!
What a beautiful storm... Something about being cold weather and being able to get warm and sheltered... So blessed.
Indeed:-)
Друг, я из России, много раз смотрел твои видео, и как я тебе завидую, белой завистью.

That trip was certainly a stress test for both you and your winter gear. You must have supreme confidence in both!
It was good fun lol, I did pick the wrong shoes for this trip however, since I rarely use snow shoes.
Amazing insane genious dude..keep on rocking
Esti foarte curajos omule.Salutari din Romania,,,

I enjoyed every second of that. Thank you.
Hey Lee, thank you!
Very impressive
This is a REAL adventure, love it! Great filmmaking as well.
Thank you it was an awesome night!

Thank you Deborah🙂
Yeah storms are interesting just ask the people in 6 states like Kentucky , Tennessee that lost everything and their lives🙄

Strong tent.
Yes it is!
I got cold just watching this! Good video. Thx
Thanks David!
Wow! Der Sturm war heftig und kein Feuer zum Warmen🤟💪
I dont think making a fire would have been easy in this weather
This episode was great nice storm
Thank you!
Härlig storm. Alla spår igensnöade på någon minut. Jag längtar efter snön.
Det er herlig med snø og litt storm:-)

Glad you enjoyed it!
beautiful ground so white but it seems ricky walking on it n it still snowing
A real adventure! You are very tough and calm in handling the snow storm. It is also a rare video to really show the capability of Soulo tent.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely enjoy it! Subscribed immediately and become your fan!
Awesome!! Thank you!
Great that mate, some pretty harsh conditions there, the soulo looks like it can handle it though. look forward to more of your adventures, atb Mick
Thanks Mick!

Lol, thank you!
Very fun! Windy but not extremely cold. Nice scenery.

It was!
Wow super cool dude..👍👍👍👍👍👍

Really very deficult to make video in this weather,, hard work and dersrve likes👌👌

Wow Jarl, I was cold just watching! I’ve never been out in snow like that. Looked like a cool adventure
Lol, it was great fun!

The worse the weather gets the better that Hilleberg looks! I’ve got a Black Label back ordered, I plan on using it in the cascades and maybe down on Aconcagua one day. Super awesome gear!
It is a brilliant tent indeed, where do you like to go out in the Cascades? I have been backpacking in the Alpine lakes and Glacier peak areas.

I love winter and. Great stuff. Regards
Thanks so much!!
Exciting for sure, you are quite intrepid!
Lol, thanks
I love the landscape of your country. In Vietnam we don't have snowfall. If there is, it is only ice, but only in high mountains like Sapa, Mau Son. so we don't feel the cold like you're experiencing
Thank you for watching from Vietnam:-)
Awesome video so extreme well done
Thank you!
Great video
Brutal weather... Thanks for sharing this video... Must of had some 80 proof in that water bottle for it not to freeze 🙂
Lol, there was something in that bottle all right😂
