Technically you made a Quinzee, be careful the best safe way to do it is to create your compact snow pile the day before you wanna sleep in it (so it freezes overnight) after you carve from the inside like you did. Safe thing to do also is putting small wooden sticks through the roof so you see when to stop shoveling inside. One great trick is to use a single candle inside so it creates humidity and freezes the inside wall also. You use your bag to cover the entrance and you can sleep at 0 degrees when its -35 outside. Great video ! Have a good day

[@Ykoum123]

Also if you plan on camping in snow for more videos, great thing to do is to have your next morning clothes inside your sleeping bag so they are warm ;) And on long days outside, change socks during the middle of the day if you dont wanna get sick

[@FreakyHimmel]

Oo are you in for a treat near the 32 minute mark

[@LASHIZLE]

💯

[@christopherdoff-sotta4441]

I was wondering. Could he have a small fire in there as well without jeopardizing the structure of the igloo??

[@Ykoum123]

@@FreakyHimmel Yeah as i said, the next day the snow gets super hard and it's safe to sleep in. If he went on top of his roof before going to sleep, it wouldn't have been as much strong. It's still a really nice thing to do, but if you're planning on sleeping with multiple people, you need great structure. I did once with 10 persons, it was huge. And maybe 5-6 with just a couple of people.

[@shawnfromportland]

being from the northern hemisphere and watching you for a long time, this was a real treat episode. you are awesome for embracing the unfamiliar

[@gaberuth2500]

Man, don't ever change! This channel is so good because it's about the experience and I think your sense of gratitude about it is what keeps me coming. Now I gotta plan my own adventures.

[@JTsJourney]

Dude, stoked for your love for extreme adventures. As a Canadian, you did very well enjoying our winter experience. Well made Quinzee, Dawgie!

[@YabbaDabbaDoTime]

If you're going to be sleeping in the snow again, you need to get yourself a steel water bottle, one you can boil water in. Just before bed fill it, heat it, then wrap it in a shirt or something and put it in your sleeping bag. Keep it by your feet and it'll keep them warm for most of the night. A thirty hour emergency candle or a candle lantern in your Quinzee would also help to keep the worst of the chill off. Also try to keep a bit of wood for the morning, if you get overly chilled you'll be endlessly glad for a morning fire Lastly, directly before bed eat something fatty with protein (like a snickers bar) the digestion will keep you warmer.

[@einfachjohannsen9054]

I would add "keep your shoes on" to that list, otherwise great stuff!

[@LuisLuis-vk3vp]

Would u b able to use the candle lantern on inside that igloo while sleeping? As far as the ice melting.

[@YabbaDabbaDoTime]

@@LuisLuis-vk3vp yeah, it's fine. There might be some melt but it would be minor. Camping with Steve made a huge Quinzee and had a Mr. Buddy heater going in it.

[@TheSchizophreniaLife]

A few tips.Goulash is soup your suppost to mix that can with 1 can worth of water. The reason your cold is because winter sleeping bags only work if you take your clothes off, they work by reflecting your body heat which it cant to if you have clothes on. I've tested both ways in Alaska.

[@sharkbait5402]

Made the same mistake wearing snow-covered pants in my sleeping bag once. Never again. Much warmer to strip down to a minimal layer before hoping in.

Yeah brother, thanks I actually needed the motivation, I have great memories from the snow fields in Australia I'd love to visit Europe to, your videos inspire me to get better after getting a rare auto immune condition, then substance abuse, there is no better high then living exploring and adventuring the wild!!! Thanks Field Days.

[@leahbebexo]

This video is SICCK 😍 - as a gal from Ontario, Canada, it’s so cool to see you in a different climate, adapting to the cold and weather, etc. but please do not be careful lol! My anxiety went up when you were building the igloo because I’ve heard stories of them collapsing but you do a great job!!! ☺️😁 Also, can we take a moment to appreciate your patience and determination?! Wishing you and Maky all the best xxxx safe travels 😊

[@skonstas4683]

You need Sealskinz socks for extreme cold and perhaps warming a rock around the fire so you can put it in your sleeping bag where your feet are. Your extremities are cold because your body cuts circulation to them in order to protect your vital organs and brain from hypothermia. this is why the rest of the body feels okay. All of your blood is going there to keep it warm because it is too cold for it. Many do not understand that if your body and vital organs are cold it is because your body needs more heat. Adding something to keep the heat from escaping from your door would have made your igloo warmer too.

[@NewSpirits]

How to Build a Quinzee Snow Shelter Step 1: Shovel a pile of snow into a mound 7 to 8 feet high and big enough around to hold two people once it is hollowed out. ... Step 2: Shape the mound into a dome and allow it to sinter for about 90 minutes. ... Step 3: Use the last foot of snow to make elevated snowbeds. Dig a narrow trench between the beds all the way to the ground. This allows cold air to flow down and out of the quinzee. Poke a small ventilation hole near the top of the dome. Building a quinzee will make you sweat. Prevent hypothermia by changing into warm dry clothes after you finish building your shelter.

[@craftyink70]

You've taken your channel to the next level 👍😍🇬🇧 New merch with Frothin on? ❤️

You sure are making me homesick for 🇨🇦, it’s been a few years since I’ve got to have fun in the snow. Heat and sand is wonderful but the snow is magestic.

[@bastiaanhagenaar]

Great stuff! You are doing great in the snow! Some tips; If you can, you want to raise to the floor in the “iglo” (the cold air is on the bottom. For your lighter, BIC is the best, but remove the child proof ring from the top, since with cold hand, you can not use it otherwise (just lift it up with knife or screwdriver and it pops out) and last, when sitting by the fire, put some pine under your feet, to keep the cold out. Keep it up and feel free to stay in Europe a little while! Can highly recommend the Nordics, specially Finland 👍 And yes, Goulash is great outdoors!

[@justincole9116]

Plunges knife into snow, slices many rabbit turds, then right back to cutting sausages 😂 Thanks for the video! I live in Colorado and this is more up my alley than the coastal videos. Love them all, but this was a good change up.

[@duamilli]

if you are going to keep doing overnighters in the snow, maybe get an bivy bag! stays a lot warmer. also you can add spruce needles into your hot water, tastes amazing and lots of vitamin C

[@relentless7144]

[@johannesgurndin8739]

Absolutely loving that you're changing up the country! I live in Europe so I always wondered how you would deal with the snow, the cold and what food you would eat! Goulash is one of the best things to eat (try it together with mashed potatoes that's incredible!). Another tip for the barista sessions: try using a Moka it makes the absolute greatest coffee over the fire, I love it!

2 mins in and reminds me of my childhood! Canadian winter brought lots of winter forts 😂

[@jeridsmith3890]

Nice one! I did this when I was young scout, I made a trench around the sleeping bag so you don't wake up in a puddle. Also I used a candle to harden the inner layer.

[@Kantirant]

Its important to leave a layer of snow below you, the ground is much more conductive and a lot cooler. You would have a much better night sleeping on a thick 30cm layer of packed ice, its much more insulated.

[@yuasha1]

[@SeboPlaysReal]

😆😆 it was amusing watching you eat that goulash..especially me being Hungarian, it’s one of our traditional foods (gulyás) which is actually a stew/thick soup, and I saw on the can it was from Germany.. so hey, must be close to our hometaste!

[@kristianphilipkarlsen4830]

One big tip when srviving in the snow and making shelters like these is dont make ur entrance larger than ur backpack. If you make it abit smaler you can use the backpack as a sort off door and generate abitr of warmth inside, but remember to have a small opening for fresh air. This will also shield from eventuall wind and snow

[@mattyallred]

Love your videos brother, Im aussie as well, But i have done a bit of camping in the snow, Every year since i can remember as a kid i would either go to the snow multiple times or camp in the snow multiple times. With those sleeping bags its best to have less clothes on, Sounds weird but less is better, The sleeping bag itself uses your body warmth to warm up and stay warm, The more you contain the heat the less it is distributed. If you do make an igloo as in a proper one, Remember to have sticks all around it for air holes, Or just have the door open for air. Depending on the situation. If its really cold and blizzard weather, Have that door closed and air holes.. Also Dig down about a meter in the dirt but leave a bed size bit so you can have a small fire ( obviously have it ventilated some how or make a home made chimney ) and it wont melt the igloo. Love how you are trying new terrain. Dont get me wrong i can watch you in the bush or coast any time and if you only did that i wouldnt care, But i like the fact you are trying something different

[@mikeunlocked]

Although I’m a complete camping novice, I imagine it would of been a good idea to stack more firewood for the morning as well as have a cover over the entrance of the shelter. Would of kept the heat in. Could also of kept the batteries warmer or the go pro! From what I’ve heard, snow shelters are excellent insulators, you can even have fire inside them if the enviro,ent is cold enough. Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures!
