Bought one of these 10 years ago. Love in Florida . Use for hunting. Temps down to 33 in Gainesville and up to 85 in Brooksville. Still have it. Thinking of using it one more time (I'm 65) Money well spent. If you are thinking of one of these go for it 👍
As a veteran with some issues going on I have found solace in only one thing here lately, my Son and I fishing and camping. I just traded in my dream car camaro Ss bells and whistles because I wanted an fx4 to do more then what we could. This video is inspirational. Every person that tells you that you have helped with this, that’s real! Thank you
Get outside and breath!
Thanks! Best Comment yet!
planning on trading my camaro next year to hike and camp. what truck did you get?
@@Exe.6000 ford f150 fx4 and still going hard camping and trailing
To be young again in the great outdoors, AWESOMENESS
Great video!!= Yep, just like my northern Canada.= Me 76 I still CAP truck camp.= ALWAYS, have CO2 detector just below the head.= Was road Paramedic 1960 / 2000= now 21 yrs. PTSD. This life saves me!!!!!
Just camped in my Napier in 32 degrees and rain in MT....LOVE IT!
i really love it to watch a winter camping and i love nature too, please keep vlogging...
same
As a truck driver I got to see the run into Phoenix from the North from Flagstaff. Saw the elevations for the first time and literally said this must be where it snows In AZ. It was 105deg everywhere that day
Nature is healing for me..
Thank you for the explanation on the buddy heater. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you!
Enjoyed seeing your camping in the snow. Brrrr
Thanks for letting us know how the tent handled the snow. I am going to be getting that same tent and know it’s a 3 season tent without the covers on the windows.
You betcha! I can't testify as to how it would do in a multi-day heavy snow event, but it certainly outperformed my expectations on this trip.
I shot off the line with a Kodiak Canvas Truck tent. Just received it. Almost three months waiting. We're going camping out at the swell this weekend.
Crazy people do the crazy things, but I love it! Very enjoy the outdoor activity special sitting at home and watching the video feel I’m at the camping area.
Thanks for watching
Propane heaters burn clear. Learned that living on a military base and had to call the fire department when my utility room in base housing seemed to hot. They responded and the exhaust from the heater was actually venting into the utility room and the CO2 detector next to it never went off. The FD said its because propane burns clear. (Never defined what that meant)
Just watched this, first one of yours Iv watched. Nicely done, no ego or too much face in the camera. Subbed :) peace, Hampshire UK
Thanks, i took your advice. Best 🙏
You're comment speaks volumes of your need for a reset A B. Check back in once you're inner child has been met with kindness.
Scott is definitely prepared! I would like to see his setup.
Love the intro ! Wow...it was a full on snow survival trip ! Yea to the Mr Buddy heater ! Great video !
Loved your advice at the end! Great vid! 👍
First time watching your video. I really enjoyed it. Subscribed.
Thanks Sandra!
Very nice words of the day thank you. Nice camping there! Watching here in the Philippines
I have the Napier with the Sportz Link tent for the ground behind the truck and it is well worth it. I have a Ford F-350 with an 8' bed and that Napier tent is almost 10 feet long to where it ends on the tailgate so with the Sportz Link the whole thing is like 18 feet long. I also put an ez up after the Sportz Link for a vestibule so it is closer to 28 feet when all said and done. I have a 30' toy hauler and I prefer going places it can't make it to go hunting and fishing so this is the answer for me.
Couldnt live without my little Buddy Heater but I had a lot of condensation...was sure to ventilate.
Perfect message at the end. 👍🇺🇸
18:22 was a great piece of Advice 👍💖👍😀
I always carry a bottle of charcoal lighter fluid with me, it helps to get a fire going.
Ya I do the same thing
Always!
Y’all did well weathering the snow and coldness

You need to buy a trailer
Compost heater ( compost heater )
Compost will go up to 140f
Put some pipes together and a fan and you will have heat . Put a plastic water pipe in the compost and you will have hot water .
Just Think ? You can heat anything if
You only think ?
wow just like in the movie chad..with the sound effect and the snow..awesome..nice music am using earphone ..laying on the bed seeing Chad video..snowing forest amazing..love the video..greetings from Sarawak Malaysian Borneo..enjoy your camping chad and scott..🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
may i know the temperature in Celsius
Great video stay warm and safe on your way back home.
That was a great message
Great video man! Would love to see more snow and winter camping vids on your channel man!
Just watched your station for 1st time. Enjoyed it and subscribed to the channel..
Love it
Thank you Willem!
I live and camp in north western Canada. Rarely do we experience the common damp cold and wet snow of what the U.S. gets. Damp cold and snow sucks the heat out of beings like jumping into an Arctic Ocean. I feel for your cold. Yes I am Canadian and no we are not the cold lovers and survivors like the myths.
That is what all of Ontario is like as well. Brutal.
Just found your channel. Keep up the good work. Awesome stuff!!!!!!!
-4 C thats summer weather here in canada...lol....great video!!!
Lol I love Arizona and camping here:)
Love the video!
Winter camping Enjoying the suck and experience lol. Love it.
My photography buddy and I drove to the Grand Canyon from Lake Haavasu. We had NO IDEA that it snowed. I ended up breaking my ankle with the cah cah shoes I had on the ice. Defiantly know what you are getting into before you get there
Great video 👍Love the music 🌼
Awesome 🥰
Great video
Very nice car ⛺ so beautfull place I love nacher
Thanks for visiting
OK! I love your channel! This is rea.... I can't say it enough.
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks!
I've camped in that exact camp site before!
Yes I'm from Quebec and I love winter -40 I don't care . I'm a vanning .
You can’t use a buddy heater in a tent, it causes condensation, this is why you have water inside and everything is wet.
Wrong.
@@DirtRoadReset Actually she’s both right and wrong, they can be used in a tent, but propane does cause condensation
@@mrs.c5471 Propane is indeed a wet heat, but absolutely CAN be used in a tent. With proper ventilation, it's usually no big deal. Condensation will always form no matter what depending on the weather and ground conditions. Its an accepted part of winter camping.
I know the Lincoln National Forest when I see it.
@@roberttaylor9611 this was in the Tonto National Forest! Close 😉
WOW! Really enjoyed your vlog. I am a lifelong resident of the Deep South so as you might guess my vaca motto is "if it ain't snowin, I ain't goin"! I have a truck bed tent arriving today and your overnight has me super stoked! Unfortunately, I will have about an 11-hour drive from the beach to the Smokies. Your camera work was very good, as was your voice-over. Straight forward, no 50 cent words just gorgeous scenery. Def leaned on the like and subscribe! now for some constructive criticism if I may? I have been a personal witness to how quickly a hatchet can ruin a camping trip, especially in freezing conditions, even while being used by experienced hands. This particular habit keeps the National Guard current on their extractions but it will cost you around $1,500 if conditions force a chopper to come from Knoxville. No matter what one wishes to accomplish with a hatch, there is a MUCH SAFER tool to get it done. Second, I think you might have used the heater only when you were awake and let a good sleeping bag do its thing until morning. Other than that, I cant wait to see (and hear) your next outing!

Propane heaters that aren't vented outside will off H2O as a waste product, so the tent isn't to blame.
Wow almost 900 subs!
Humbled!
I have a Napier truck tent as well, but it is far from water resistant even with the rain fly. That last two times I went camping the Tent was soaked and it didn't even rain....I will throw extra tarps over the tent next time... after watching your video you mentioned condensation. My fiance and myself were in my tent maybe thats why is the tent was soaked...
Correct. Need ventilation ...
Dry in sun well, spray 3 M, water and stain gaurd, it recommend this when you buy new, good insurance from getting wet, you have a broken seam, inspect, if so use a nylon patch kit, but if it didnt rain, ITS CALLED CONDENSATION, CRACK THE WINDOWS
I just found your channel and I like the channel. I will subscribe to you this is a very informative video
I love snow
Look for a Coleman Black Cat heater. Much more stable than the Buddy heater.
Klamath falls Oregon is watching,and I got a Aunt in Showlow.
I'm from north western Canada and not boasting about it. The damp/wet snow you are dealing with is absolutely the most uncomfortable and difficult to deal with. Moisture/water sucks heat out of everything faster than anything. I'd rather live or camp at 0F/-18C than in damp conditions. Often I wished it would get colder to have warmer feet.
Yeah, I live in south MS and we dont get any snow but when it does get down in the teens for that odd day or two, Ive had people from Maine tell me they never felt the cold with 100% humidity. Its a different type of cold that zaps you from the core.
I was up in Altoona, PA one Christmas where it snowed 24" one day and I was out walking in it all day and was fine....but in 20 F at 100% humidity, Im running for the heat!!
Very good
imagine 150 years ago.....covered wagons....we are all soft compared to people back then....
No kidding! We are marshmallows! I agree
It’s beautiful, but I still prefer somewhere like Mississippi or Tennessee.
10:55 - 11:05 did anyone notice the wolf face in one of the hollow bowls kinda thing??? creepy.awesome video though..where in AZ did you camp if you don't mind me asking
Wonderful Indonesia 🏖️🌅🇮🇩👍
Nice intro!!!!
I don't know why people are tripping on using propane heaters....
I grew up with most everything propane....
Plus we also had wood stoves....
We never had a problem with being exposed to propane....
We used it in tents , campers and winter cabin and our homes....
No one was affected by propane....
I am only saying this because I watch a lot of camping videos and see too many act like they are afraid to use it !!!
I want go camping without it....
All my family likes to sleep cold but we like the quick heat in the morning to get dressed and wait for the campfire to start blazing.....
I have to laugh when you talk about AZ. having snow. We (East coasters) went to the Grand Canyon in mid May, I thought Arizona means lots of shorts and tees… woke up our first morning at the south rim with snow on the RV. Immediately ran to the shops and bought sweat pants and hoodies
How u like it?
My advice bring a C02 detector if you use a buddy, or any fuel heater
Always! It's always behind my head above the pillow on the truck bed lip.
Cual es la coordinación para llegar ahí parce
Was wondering do you have a video on when you first got the tent and set it up, kinda Interested in looking at one for my f150
What info do you have for your Columbia jacket. Nice vid.
How do you now feel about the Napier tent?
I guess people don't know about garbage bags. They weigh nothing and keep everything dry no matter what.
Hard to believe this is Arizona as I’m watching this from Phoenix and it’s 116 outside and in the middle of a desert
Right?!
I live here in Florence AZ. Is that the Pinal Mts. near Globe? If So I love it up there !!! would love to go on a truck tent trip I have the Sportsman "Guide Gear" Truck Tent.
Cool lookin twig stove, what kind is it?
Good vid
Cheers frum Canada eh
Is that the best winter camping truck tent ? Thermal wies !?
Where we're you camping. I live in the White Mountains.
You should watch the David John Walsh show, he does this stuff too
Any chance on getting this camp location ? I saw you go throught the tunnel on the 60 out of superior. Do you turn off before top of the world if so what road.
I would think people who use fires a lot would carry a straw with them to blow on the fire.
Then you would be wrong.
Seldom do they use a straw ...
Thanks for showing your trip with a friend will be doing the same is winter in my Chevy Tahoe no tent and hope to have fun also over night and weekends also !!!!!!!
سلام خیلی با حال و عالی بود همین طور ادامه بده به زودی تعداد فالوورهاتون بی نهایت میشه
Wow very cool very nice
Have you considered upgrading to a Kodiak Canvas Truck Tent?
We finally received ours. It took about three months for it's arrival. Damned bullshit Propaganda DIS-EASE.
Realistically if Springbar actually sold a truck tent, I'd of payed more just because China isn't involved. They design their products in Salt Lake City and manufacture them in Salt Lake City as well.
Stupid question. What Oakley model sunglasses are you wearing in this video?
By the time carbon monoxide depletes the oxygen, you would be well dead
Loved the video, great camping weather
South Texas is nothing but heat
What are the GPS cords for that spot?
Do you have a vehicle running? Why?
He's in Miami?
You're VERY close.
How is the ventilation of the tent, did you get much condensation inside?
As much as can be expected, the fly still keeps airflow throughout and the top vent works well at keeping heat distribution good. Most of the condensation came from the buddy heater.
WERE IS THAT LOCATED
This is in Central Arizona
I live in AZ what mountain did you guys camp on?
This was near Pinal Peak, just outside of Globe.
Can you use this tent if you have a utility box in the bed of the truck?
I dont think so
Anyone have info on how these things hold up in the wind?
very well.
@@DirtRoadReset Nice-Thanks
You didn't put the gas cap back on.
Gen 7 and above Ford F150s don't have a gas cap. This is a 2013. They use a yellow door mechanism in the fuel slot that opens and shuts the the port. I think they call it "easy fuel" or something like that.
@@DirtRoadReset cool. I thought i was being clever. Goes to show you....
Plz use less music....only use natural sound
I watch a lot of these videos and still can't figure out why people go through so much trouble for a one nighter.
She's more than worth it ...
For fun
whats the into music?
