Solo camping in a blizzard | It's safe inside the tent even in a stormy forest

This time, FireHiking provided us with a hot tent. It is an elegant looking one-pole tent, but we have used it in a stormy forest because we were told that it is safe to use under adverse weather conditions. The wind and snow were raging, but we were able to stay safely until morning. If you are interested in this tent, please give it a try.

When camping in snow, I'd take half the weight off your back and pull it on a sled. Because when collecting firewood, the sled can bring back a lot in one trip. Now I'm old and prefer Tub Floors built in to the tent. The sled let's you bring more food and a big can of Sapporo too! LOL

[@otherwiseunarmed4187]

and with the right sled, the right load, and a favorably-slick snow cover, the trek is almost effortless!

[@gregparrott]

I have several hot tents. None have floors, while all of my 3 and 4 season tents (non hot tent) have floors. Given the conditions where hot tents are commonly used, where snow, snow smudged with dirt (i.e. mud) exists, the need to constantly put on/take off boots, the presence of things like split wood, and a glowing hot stove, make it more practical to accept a separate ground cloth. Ground cloths specific to each tent are available and have a panel that is heat/flame resistant, which is positioned under the stove's location. Alternately, you can use a regular tarp and buy a separate fire resistant panel to place under the stove, or just keep the stove on the ground, with the tarp kept some distance from it. The tents have perimeter flaps that fan out at the tent's base (they looked a bit short on this tent). If there very little wind, these suffice in minimizing inside/outside air exchange. If there is high wind, the tent's perimeter flaps need to be secured. One method is to pile snow on to the tent's perimeter flaps. This stops all the wind from creeping underneath. When it does this, you won't miss the ground cloth not being integral to the tent. Where I've found this to be a problem is pitching the tent where there's little snow. In that case, log segments, rocks or the like are needed to pin down the sides. This alternative is a hassle, both because in strong winds, the logs/rocks can abrade/tear at the fabric, and because a buffeting tent can pull itself put from under the log. That happened once in high winds while snowing. It got under the tent, quickly lifted that side, resulting in an 'indoor snowstorm'. It was partly my fault for not spending enough time securing all guy lines. I entrust the builders with their avoidance of integral floors. It would be a high maintenance item to clean and repair.

Палатка понравилась только своей компактностью и легкостью! Пол в ней нужен обязательно! Это скорее осенне-весенний вариант для северных регионов, где мороз может достигать минус 30-40 градусов зимой! Для таких температур печка мала! А палатку можно нести в рюкзаке, а можно везти в пластиковых санках! Благодарю за обзор! Здоровья и удачи!

[@user-te1ub4bf2p]

Пол в зимней палатке как раз и не нужен. Настилается отдельно, оставляя часть снега открытым. Он впитывает влагу. Особенно это важно, когда готовишь еду в палатке.

[@user-vc4rc7fh5r]

@@user-te1ub4bf2p я начал жить в палатках месяцами в 1974 году. При производстве полевых геофизических работ! Потом, в середине 90-х перешёл на работу в город, но мои хобби - охота и рыбалка не позволили уйти от использования этого жилья как в осенне-зимний период времени, так и в весенне-летний! В поле у нас были только брезентовые однослойные 6-и местные и 4-х местные (редко) палатки и дна у них не было. И всегда на пол стелился еловый лапник, потому, что зимой утоптанный снег от тепла печки протаивал и внутри палатки получался очень неровный, неудобный пол. Когда на нашем рынке стали появляться импортные палатки подходящие по цене, то первая была тоже однослойная в виде чума от бренда «Экспедиция»! Вот к ней впервые (в моей практике) шёл утеплённый пол! И тогда я смог оценить его полезность и удобство! Но всё же необходимо было подкладывать на пол теплоизоляционный лист (я возил дюралевый примерно 60 на 60 см) под печку и под центральную стойку тоже обязательно была нужна опора, иначе она нагревалась и уходила в снег. У пола есть недостатки: на нём легко образуются лужи зимой и осенью натаскивается грязь, которую потом хозяин палатки вынужден отчищать, пол сушить и проветривать! Но когда вы ставите палатку без пола во время разгула кровососущих: комаров, оводов, слепней, и особенно мошкИ и она может по всяким щелям забраться внутрь и не дать Вам хорошо отдохнуть, вот тогда Вы оцените наличие хорошего пола в палатке! В полевых палатках без пола летом можно было спать только под марлевым пологом. Попробуйте сейчас найти такое изделие! Который в жару не дышал и спать под ним было очень жарко с учётом нагрева палатки за день! На сегодняшний день мне 71 год и огромный опыт организации полевых палаточных лагерей! Здоровья и удачи!

[@irinaKorovina]

В большинстве шатровых, которые на лыжи крепятся, никакого пола нет. Вместо него полиэтилена кладётся. А то промокнет ваш пол, волоки потом лишние килограммы.

I sure like your tent! Very nice--looks roomy. That was some great snowstorm and brought back memories of when I was growing up, how I loved to go outside at night in a heavy snowstorm. We had gas-lit street lights and I would stand and just watch the snow fall in the glow of the gas light. I would feel like I was inside of a Christmas card. I'll never forget the special smell of the fresh snow falling, how fresh and clean it smelled. Everything was wrapped in quiet. The sound of whatever traffic that was still moving out on Main Street was muffled by the snow. There was an elevated train named, The Phoebe Snow and she had a diesel engine pulling her. Usually, there was a louder sound of the powerful diesel engine, but in the snowstorm, all one could hear was a low growl because the snow quieted the usually loud sound of the engine. Thanks so much for evoking in me, the wonderful memories tucked away inside of my young mind. God bless.

[@joewoodchuck3824]

@@gregparrott But why?

[@gregparrott]

​@@joewoodchuck3824 As much as I would enjoy an integral floor, I've come to accept the floor being separate because: - ) In snow or sleet conditions, it is a 'production to don/remove boots. It's often more convenient to continue wearing them inside for extended periods. - ) For Winter conditions, the floor of a hot tent is more subject to wear and tear from boots, hard objects like stoves, split wood, chairs, occasional embers popping out. - ) It's much more difficult to clean and dry the tent if the floor is integral. This includes mud from the tent heat melting snow under the floor. - ) The 3 reasons noted above support the notion of having a transition area inside the tent, like a 'mud room' in a house - ) On my 2 person tent (with a stove inside), the detachable floor by itself adds ~4+ pounds. Alternatively, using a Tyvek sheet for around the sleeping bag is ~3 ounces. - ) One of the hot tent's uses is ice fishing for those cutting holes in ice, they WANT open access.

I've lived in Michigan my whole 72yrs. We have a lot of forested land that is not private. Between State Land, Federal Land, State Forest and Federal Forest there are millions and million of acres available for recreation. Since it is government "owned" and I pay state and federal taxes, I use those government lands like my own. I do not care for camp grounds and other formal state designated places to camp so I leave the beaten path and seek vast wilderness. Our current presidential administration is beginning to take on all the characteristics of a dictatorship and I fear the "government land" will become regulated or sold to the CCP and the kind of camping and hunting I do will be by permit only. We need to keep an eye on the gov. T.J. Pres #3 once said "Eternal Vigilance is The Price of Liberty," and I believe never truer words were ever spoken. The current presidential administration and unelected 4th branch of government are robbing our national treasures and selling them to any bidder. They run a constant drivel about climate and pollution, but I have to think they are more worried about the world going to nuclear war and killing every living thin on it or the world itself crashing into the sun. The U.S. government is acting like our time is very limited and they have to get as much as they can in a hurry. ben/ michigan

It would hold 4 cots and a stove plus enough room for gear. Down side is that it was heavy and not made for backpacking. It was cozy when it snowed, great times for napping and just let the world just pass me by. We always had more than enough food in case we were snowed in.

And they said their parents talked about wild temperature changes back in the 1800s. It's change of seasons like it's always been. The world has gone through wild temperature swings since the beginning of time. The jet stream has changed some, which I remember my dad telling me that my grandpa said that back in the 1940s or 50s. That the jet stream in the United States would change and people in the midwest where we were from wouldn't get big snowstorms as much because the moisture from the Rockies wouldn't come to us as much as it was then. And now the snow they do get up in that area is driven down from Lake Michigan even though we're in the southern part of Northwest Ohio. And that hardly ever happened in the seventies and eighties when I was up there. Still get some good storms when the moisture from the south collides with cold air from the northbut not the big snow storms that came over from the Rockies and held up all the way through the Midwest and east coast back then. Again because the jet stream changed.

Me, too. A friend and I snowshoed into the mountains north of Tres Piedras for two nights. I’m a retired photographer and we got some great shots. No snow, but damned cold. Slept with my camera inside the bag. No stoves except for cooking stoves. In those mountains around Taos, the sun warms you up very well during the day. Had great down bags for the nights inside a simple Jansport tent. Only excitement was I snowshoed too close to what looked like a seven or eight foot pine. Of course I dropped into the “hole” under the branches. Tree was probably about twelve feet tall. 2:55 My companion got a big kick out of it, especially since I had warned him about getting too close to trees. Sunrises were spectacular. 0 degrees, absolutely pristine blue skies, the air “cracked” around us. Altitude near Hopewell Lake is about 10,500 ft. A memorable trip.

That was really fun! Thank you and I wish I could do the same thing!!!

You could...

I’m also used to tents with floors. However, with a wood stove sitting on the nylon floor? A fireproof floor would be pretty important, imo. I also wonder if snow piled around the base of the tent would add insulation. I like the sled suggestion. Good for hauling heavy gear & wood.

I am so envious. You are a lucky man.

Why, that was so exciting, I was riveted to my seat.

i went to air force survival school in the mountains of eastern Washington in those exact conditions and forest. It was 1975 and not very much fun trekking on snowshoes with packs made from parachutes. Watching this gave me some cringy flashback. lol
