Hot Tent Winter Camping - Huron National Forest, Michigan

Hot tent hammock time! I recently spent another 4 days up north, this time in the Huron National Forest of Michigan. I was joined by two friends for most of the trip enjoying good food and company in the frigid piney woods. The DIY stainless steel sink stove inside the hot tent is still incredible!! I was toasty warm and comfortable the entire time.

Thanks! That was a fun trip with great company. Already looking forward to winter, but I don't want to rush fall!

[@mistone9784]

nice video sure looked like peace and solitude out there !

[@OneclickOutside]

It was nice and quiet! We were not far from town and a road so I wasn’t sure how it would be.

Nice setup, way to to go with the hammock.

[@OneclickOutside]

Thanks! I gotta have the hammock!!

Just record and post people will keep watching. I like michigan camping.

[@OneclickOutside]

Thanks! It’s been a nice cold winter so far up north.

[@davidgornick87]

It's so nice to watch Michigan Camping video. Keep it up!!!

Thanks for watching! Heading out soon for one last winter trip.

Nice. Peaceful. Glad that you shared. My Smokehouse 1 is on order. Chainsaw running problems are usually a clogged air filter, or fuel filter. Water in the gas at those temperatures could also be a culprit, freezing in the fuel delivery system. Bring the saw inside and see if it runs better.

[@OneclickOutside]

That’s great, you’re going to love it! I adjusted the carburetor at home and it’s running fine now, but yeah that’s at home in a warmer garage.

Thanks for the video. Speaking for a lot of people, this content never gets old. Can you show and explain how you support the stove pipe out the side?

[@OneclickOutside]

It’s a tripod made with 1/4-20 threaded rod. The chimney is so light it doesn’t take much. I show more of that in a video from earlier this winter: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZOaoqlmlNSnfaM

Fantastic vid as usual. I'm taking the pomoly flame and the Smokehouse 2 out this weekend. Going to be close to - 20C. Not alot of faith in getting the tent very hot but let's see! Lol. Thanks for sharing

[@OneclickOutside]

Thanks, have fun!! Even if you just take the edge off, it beats sitting under a cold tarp.

I’ve always wanted to try hot tent camping. I just moved to MI, from CA. Did you mention what stove that is?

[@jblaze725]

Nice setup. I’d love to get a hot tent and stove setup either for my hammock or for ground camping but they’re expensive and my wife is tired of me buying a bunch of camping items which I understand. That said nice video and I love your setup.

[@OneclickOutside]

Yeah she’s gonna catch that purchase 🤣🤣 I’m going to make one myself, but after buying materials it’s really not a huge savings especially considering the time it’s going to take me. Thanks for watching!

[@jblaze725]

@@OneclickOutside I've seen the videos on how to make your own hot tent and stove. The tents actually look pretty good but the stoves not so much. Gotta sell a few items so I can justify the purchase. Until then I'll keep watching you guys.

[@OneclickOutside]

p.s. A pyramid tent would be cheaper, easier and less to heat. Then you could get away with a smaller stove. There are more knock-offs on Amazon and eBay now to choose from. Still a few hundred bucks total.

[@jblaze725]

@@OneclickOutside If I make one it’ll be a pyramid style because all of the diy videos I have seen are those. The cheap Amazon stoves are tempting just to get started but I see myself having to upgrade in the future anyway as people say those aren’t the best quality so I would probably go with a Pomoly and those are definitely not cheap. Winter is almost over here so this would really be for next year anyway giving me some time to figure it out.

[@OneclickOutside]

@@jblaze725 sounds like a plan! I bought the Luxe 3W first, then Pomoly T1, then made the DIY. Great stoves but the first two were a bit small. I think the T1 would be great in a smaller pyramid though.

[@jonathanfreyer9361]

Where can you get the cargo toboggan like that?

[@showtime1235]

can you camp anywhere there or do you have to stay at designated spots?

[@trevorarena1213]

Very nice vid, what tent is that?

[@OneclickOutside]

This is a Smokehouse Outfitter I. Great tent!!!

[@spoperquimix1]

Hey young man I just watched your video wonderful fantastic stunning my wife and I are on our way up to Mount Huron we’re leaving in a couple of weeks we were going to go camp just below the lake and trail head do you know if the four-wheel-drive path is Still suitable for four-wheel-drive any help is greatly appreciated

[@OneclickOutside]

Thanks for watching! Are you referring to the area south of the Huron Mountains in the UP? If so, I was driving those backroads up there last September. AAA rd area up towards Big Bay. Some rather deep spots to drive thru but no problem for a standard SUV. At least at that time.

[@jackyenkel1628]

I have to go to that side of the state looks great

[@claudem.p.7969]

SUPER video. is there any special reason for the side arm ? HOURRA.

[@OneclickOutside]

Thanks! No specific reason. Just recently picked up that M&P Shield for daily carry.

[@mag-nm7tw]

@@OneclickOutsideGreat video. Love the Shield.

[@mag-nm7tw]

Many people in Michigan carry sidearms.
