looks like a fun time mix the slim jim in with the soup next time wind goes up the mountain during daylight and goes down at night hopefully you have acquired some nice winter boots after this
Thanks. Snow sure does change the trail. Been on that section many times never while snowing thou. My backpacking has much evolved over the years. Got my kit dialed in and have confidence in all my gear.
Cool. I used to break trail in knee deep (waist in some spots) snow out west and gaiters were key. While more durable, they don't help you slip into frozen shoes like plastic shopping bags though lol. Cheers!
If you brought some hand warmers and put them in your shoes and put your shoes in plastic bags would have semi warm shoes to put on in the morning ... And put your hammock buckles under tarp would stay dry mostly ...
I normally just put my shoes in a plastic bag in the morning and put it in my quilt with me. Does the trick in like ten minutes. My hammock hooks were under the tarp as always but still froze up. Thanks for coming along
With a little bush crafting you could have made some snow shoes . Grate video , looked like a grate time to be in the woods. Grate shots with the video camera too . Thanks for the video, loved it ! 👍
It was fun. A test for my gear too since my quilts are rated to 20° and it got down to 17° plus my hammock tarp doesn’t have doors. But just hung my rain gear on each open end to block wind/snow. Thanks for watching!
@@TrailsNTrout Oh no, not at all! Lol! I thouroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to make the video. I know they're not the easiest thing in the world to do.
Great video, my friend! Great winter camp! Enjoyed watching, your and bushcraft skills are terrific! And the surrounding nature is amazing. Cheers from Russia, , and welcome to my channel about special Russian bushcraft tips and hacks! Cheers, Yuriy! 😃✌
This was really good, enjoyed watching it.. you are very brave for staying in a hammock during a sizable snowstorm with very large wildlife around..
Really engaging and well documented trip - was totally immersed. And a very cool shot with no footprints to set up the camera 25:52 :)
Nice one and always nice to keep moving after a cold night
looks like a fun time
mix the slim jim in with the soup next time
wind goes up the mountain during daylight and goes down at night

It's a good video, I'm waiting for more😎👍👍
Just got back from another winter backpacking trip today. Video coming in the next week or so. Thanks for watching
Nice job getting the camera setup while still being able to show you breaking fresh trail!
Beautiful! There's nothing like hiking virgin snow. Thanks for taking us along and showing your process. Very well thought out!

Dang that looks like a cold one! Too cool seeing those bobcat tracks at 27:05, I feel like that's pretty rare to find!
Bobcats tracks surprised me! 17° for a low with 20° quilts but I survived. A good test for my gear

Snow shoes would have made hiking a lot easier! Thanks for the kind words
Good times, I’d love those conditions to test my kit in, thanks for the video, enjoyed it a lot.

Finding Bobcat tracks that’s awesome! Your tarp held up well considering. 17° is a bit too cold for my liking. Great vid!!
I was surprised by the bobcat tracks. Pushed my 20° quilts past their rating. All was good thou. Thanks
Crazy man! Awesome stuff
It was fun! Thanks for watching
Great vid
Appreciate it
Now I know your nuts.Cool vid.Defently different. Happy New year's.
Ah it was a breeze.....sometimes too much breeze but an easy trip. Low miles just lots of camp time fun trip. Thanks
Hey there, can I ask you what gear you are using (hammock/tarp/under blanket etc? Thank you! brilliant video btw!
The hammock I made myself, the hex tarp is from Jacks R Better, all the quilts I own are Hammock Gear. Thanks for watching! It was a fun trip
@@TrailsNTrout Thank you! I am exploring to make the under quilt myself as I have a few (very old) down sleeping bags
Great vid! What underquilt and topquilt do you use?
Thanks a lot! Both my quilts are Hammock Gear 20°. I’ve had them for years, they have much lighter materials now.
Anybody else catch a little bit of anxiety when he was on the cliff edge showing us the river? lol!
Hopefully not enough anxiety to keep you from watching the whole video! Thanks take care
@@TrailsNTrout Oh no, not at all! Lol! I thouroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to make the video. I know they're not the easiest thing in the world to do.
Afraid of any animal attack. Beautiful place
Not many active animals out that time of year but no I never worry. Thanks for watching
Be safe brother
