8 Weeks Winter Camping - Last Week, Igloo Collapsed

Wrapping up my 8 weeks winter camping while attending school. The rain proofing got its first real-world test, and I brought out a dump trailer to bring back my newly acquired insulated tarp.

He wasn't as talkative back then. His content sure has grown.

Lol, ya beat me to it! Hopefully he did well 😊

[@WaveArsenal]

good luck with the comment you made 1 year ago, pc9429

[@charlesgray1981]

If someone would have told me 7 weeks ago I would be watching videos about you camping and going to school I would have said they're crazy. But I really have enjoyed your videos. It is like sitting around a camp fire/stove and talking about life. Thank you for allowing us in on your journey. Good luck with your tests.

[@brendanstanford5612]

I'm honestly going to miss this series. I know there will always be some form of camping with Steve, but there was just something romantic about this situation with you needing to be there (not just for fun) and being frugal and all.

[@OrangeCrusader]

It's genuine as can be, that's what I and probably many here like about it.

[@joeldouglas1985]

It is quite an amazing series. I haven't seen anything like it.

[@MrTumbleweed]

Well said

[@chrisw5742]

@@MrTumbleweed I will be posting some vids soon of camping on my off grid forested land in the mountains. I have an Elk Mountain canvas wall tent with a woodstove. I do have a military diesel heater I will fire up also. I have a few steel shipping containers and one is setup as a 3 season cabin. I have a fire pit and acoustic instruments also and will be hosting some bonfire jams. Who wants to go????

[@oweng3352]

He’s still going!

[@box305]

Steve, I’m not sure 🤔 why these videos have been so interesting. I don’t camp. You’re interesting to listen to and admirable in your fortitude. It’s been fun. Cheers from Minnesota.

@@beetojuice618 What 'big words' are you referring to? Dear God, if you believe "admirable" or "fortitude" to be big words, you should really consider some vocabulary lessons. I mean this sincerely.

[@robertkirkland1700]

I told my wife about your recipe a few days ago, she said it sounded good. I came home tonight and she had made it for dinner. It is excellent and probably tastes even better when you are camping. Your material is great and the food is pretty darn good as well. Keep up the good work.

[@campingwithsteve]

that recipe is one of my favorites! gonna make it real soon on the next camp out, glad you enjoyed it!

[@arizonarider6998]

Hats off to you I stayed in a motel when I was in fitters school . It was hard enough to study in a air conditioned room with a bathroom and windows in AZ . You did it in a dark tent in Canada in the snow . Dedication ! Good luck on finals .

If you can find a cheap colander at the dollar Rama or Dollar Tree store just take your pellets outside by your fire pit and pour the pellets into the colander and sift out the saw dust...

Hey Steve, I really enjoy your videos. I've spent a lot of years hiking and camping Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. You've added a whole new dimension to camping out. Thanks.

Hi Steve, I’m in the u.k and I can’t imagine the temperatures you endure. I think this camping while at school stuff is awesome. Never seen anything like it. Good luck with your final exams from the u.k. Rich.

[@crindlo2527]

For those who never camped, you are giving them ideas that it is possible and not difficult. Thankyou.

[@stevethepirate2875]

Hey Steve, I'm Steve, nice to meet you. Love your channel. We (my wife and I) do a lot of camping. We're in a medieval reenactment group (SCA, Society of Creative Anachronisms.) Our camping is not light camping or backpacking, but more like camping with a you-haul. Still lots of fun. Now here in Alabama we don't get a lot of snow - or more like hardly any - but, what we do get is a ton of rain. I've had tents that have never been put back up dry in the whole time we used them. Always had to re-set them back out and allow them to dry out before I could pack back up for storage. Now another SCA camping friend of ours gave us a few hints when we first started out. One: Thompson Water Seal. Yep, the stuff you spray on a wood deck. Set up the tent, soak the outside and let it dry for a day. Repeat. Repeat. Now after the third treatment let the tent stay set up at least a week before you put it away. Preferable in warm temperatures. The way to judge is if the tent still feel sticky, don't roll it up. (It may discolor the nylon a bit, think yellowing. Least ways it did mine, but who cares. It shed water like a duck's back.) Oh, and don't forget to do the underside of the tent as well. Next: Candle wax. Take a plain white candle, soften it a bit and rub it on the inside seams. Also where the tie-down straps attach to the bottom. Every seam. A good heavy coating. Again in warm weather, preferable. Do these two things and you could set up a tent in a car wash and not get any water inside the tent. We had a spring storm line come through and drop 4-inches of rain in two hours on the campsite we were at. We were floating on the ground cloth, think the floor feeling like a water bed. We had a cup of water, if that much, come in by one of the tie-down straps. Then it drizzled rain for two more days. Dry as a bone inside. Hope these help.

I'm here at the site where Federal Bureau of Igloos investigators had the scene cordoned off earlier, trying to determine the cause of the collapse. A press conference is scheduled at 5, when the structure's owner, a Steve Wallis, will make a statement. Earlier witness accounts said building had, allegedly, commenced while workers were inebriated. More later. Back to you, John.

Hey Steve, try this next time...do your ground beef, add diced onions...but instead of the potato's use medium macaroni. Use same liquid ratio, but just water. When noodles are done strain out all the liquid and add 1 teaspoon butter and 2 teaspoons Tamari soy sauce. Salt and pepper to taste. The wife and I eat this once a week even if we aren't camping! Enjoy! John
