The Toughest Tent

[@susanford1598]

Jay thought you might like to know, I got home tonight from the hospital… my son is in hospital with kidney disease… I was feeling a bit down after coming home to a empty home but seeing your show waiting for me cheered me up…. Just wanted you to know your show means a lot.

[@mysassybear]

I'm sorry to hear that. Such a tough time.

[@ebony5766]

I'm very sorry to hear of your son's llness. May God give you comfort and solace during this time.

[@lilacscentedfushias1852]

I’m sorry x

[@pamalvestad3848]

@Susan as a mother my heart extends to you. May peace grace and mercy abound you , your son and wisdom to the medical team.

Two of my favorite things - camping in the cold and deep snow, and snowmobiling. I found out when I was a teen that the most important thing to remember when you're in these elements, is always staying dry. Of course the other thing is to always stay warm, although when I camped in the winter, I never had a stove, Having a small tent inside a bigger tent works very well, and so does building an igloo, which I did when I was still a kid, and surprisingly (or not) it's makes for a nice and cozy shelter, and they're quite easy to build if you use the right kind of snow.

[@michaelmoritz3105]

This is the only channel where I don’t mind the ads. The content is just that good! Thank you, Jay.

[@KimberleyHinnant-pb2zf]

It's AMAZING to me how no one ever bothers your tents/cabin or supplies. So nice to know you can trust others in that area. I can't think of anywhere else this would happen.

[@katherinemichael8863]

I was thinking the same thing, As always Jay great video ❤

[@kmlammto]

When the population density is as low as the NW Territories, I have to believe the crime rate is very low too. The only reason anyone would disturb the tent or the entire site that I can think of is if there was an emergency and I don’t think Jay would mind if that was the reason.

[@denisefassbender4331]

It's so remote. The weather is probably a bit of a deterrent.

[@Ragingbull9342]

Texas is about 60% of the size of NWT and NWT has less than 45000 people living in it so there probably isn't really anyone around he needs to trust.

[@anandrew6641]

It kinda depends on where you are in the USA, some areas you can't leave anything or it'll be gone, and in other areas, you can set up a tent, leave a note, and come back and nothing will be gone, and maybe even you'll have extra wood people leaving.

[@mattseymour154]

Remember guys, the best way to thank him is to like and subscribe.

[@SmurffMuffin]

Yes, we need to support him so he may buy enough honey buckets and have one at each location instead of hauling that crap around.

[@sooveritgenx]

I will apologize in advance for the length of this comment lol, but I've been meaning to say a few things and always forget or fall asleep watching your videos... and THAT is what this comment is about. I want to thank you. I originally started watching you because I grew up living in weather like this in the US. I live very near Canada and we get -20+F temps in the winter often so it was fun to watch what I'm familiar with. The sounds things make when it's that cold, etc. But, as someone who has been suffering with insomnia for years now, nothing was helping me fall asleep until I started watching your videos!! And that is a HUGE compliment to you! It's because they are so soothing. You keep everything so mellow and your voice is very soothing as well. I tend to watch the same episodes multiple times over because I missed the last half because I passed out and that is priceless to me. So, thank you. I appreciate you!

[@chriscapano3406]

I love that you now basically have 3 "vacation" spots to enjoy. Each one has its own character and charm and it is so cool to watch you get out and use them. I think my favorite is the cabin (I love the DIY stuff) but all of them are great. Thanks for another great video.

[@RicksterX-92fs]

You have the best camping videos on the tube! You have a gift for bringing us into your experience. You narrate perfectly providing information and entertainment! It is incredibly relaxing to watch and listen to your wonderful work!

[@meri-jofriesen-rowe3773]

What I enjoy most about your videos is your authenticity and videography. Another great watch!

[@debbiec.1564]

I love your front footage of the little tent glowing in the dark. OMG, that steak, onions, mushrooms and potato salad looked soooo good! Your description of it while you were enjoying it, made my mouth water! Great video. I really like this little tent. Out in the middle of all the snow, it feels so relaxing just watching the video. Thank you Jay for bringing us along!

[@leannamiddlebrooks3416]

BUTTER! I’m so proud of you!!

[@deblashbrook3209]

It’s 1.00pm here in the UK, I’ll save it to watch this evening as your videos are always awesome and relaxing and interesting to watch. A great midweek pick me up 👍. Thank you

[@justingonzalez9854]

One of my favorite youtubers! Cheers from SE Michigan

[@BobBrandon]

I love the satisfying sound of a long tent zipper! Great video as always.

[@Andrewoutdooradventures1550]

I've slept in my mate's Russian bear tent 2 years ago it's was warm and cosy, good tent for the winter, thank you Jay for this amazing video and your meal looks appetising 😊👍

[@margaretgood580]

Your dinner looked SUPERB JAY .. I only eat homemade potato salad 😋🥔❤

[@off.grider]

You know jay i love you're enthusiasm and passion for camping in the cold, i look forward to your videos. Keep up the great content. 😊😊

[@Enenrarr]

That right there is a 10,000! Love it! Thanks for hanging out with us, Jay!

[@dennispaine1624]

Fello winter camper here Jay. Very much enjoy your productions. Appreciate all the hard work doing the cinematography brother.

[@markm3384]

You wouldn't know it but my wife gave you a verbal roasting for not eating the mushroom stalks 😂

[@jastrapper190]

Love the glass sides to that stove. Gives off much more illumination.

[@BartBuzz]

It's always relaxing to watch a Jay video with my breakfast coffee. He always makes me feel like I'm right there. Great content. And that was a fantastic steak dinner!

[@gordoncook7613]

Jay I have a set of the Gotham pans and your absolutely right great pans and clean really easy. Another great video, Thanks!!!!

[@ECTOERICSARCADE]

I always like your videos before I watch them because I know their going to be good 🇺🇸🇨🇦💪

[@kyleysanj]

Hey, dude! This video content is why I look forward to watching you every week! Thank you!

[@carolfugaban2071]

I love when you cook always looks good 👍 love from Michigan ❤

[@charliebailey9467]

Great video Jay , mid summer here in Sydney , I drifted off to your world , NWT’s keep them coming , Bud

[@keithosborne642]

Great video!, It's nice to see that you have winter because here in Western Newfoundland on January 15, 2025, we don't have enough snow to use snowmobiles unless you truck into the back country. Looking forward to your next segment. Take care.

[@SuzanneR-b1l]

That was enjoyable… wish we had your snow… temps have been very cold… minimum snow… Not the New Hampshire snowfall that I recall… keep the videos coming… Love how organized you are… Thanks! ❄️☃️❄️Let it SNOW❄️❄️❄️

[@coltwood5125]

Looking good on that new skidoo Jay...I can tell you are loving that new 4 stroke....👍👍😎

[@AllagashDestinations]

Thank you Jay for your videos. Been watching you for a couple of years and I'm very impressed. Teaching us here in Maine a lot of good tricks to Winter camping. Keep up the good work

[@marktaylor8263]

I like that tent! The new wood stove is awesome. I prefer it to the original. Great dinner, Jay. Great little video. Maybe some ice fishing soon with catch and eat.

[@missyharper4729]

I LOVE the windows on your wood stove! I’ve not seen that anywhere else ❤

[@marcusgomez3307]

*at night the background of the forest looks like from the famous 60's cartoon Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. looks flippin awesome!*

[@garyjordan5634]

I love the food that you cook up!

[@markg.2501]

Great episode Jay.........yes, it was AMAZING⛺

[@4seasonpursuits724]

Great drone cinematography into the night on this one Jay and glad the new stove is a champ!

[@TheVirginiaStew]

Great video, love the new stove. Awesome sleeping bag system. Great Meal, thanks for the ride along.

[@gaildunning3889]

Jay, you have inspired me to learn more about Canada and, surprisingly, about myself. It is 34 degrees F (1.1 C) at my house this morning. There is a nice formula to convert F to C. Jay should make it required learning, so he doesn’t have to tell us. Now I know why I had never heard of Nunavut. Yellowknife is where Ice Road Truckers and similar shows were made. I knew my grandfather was involved in the provincial government of Alberta, but not that I would find him on Wikipedia with a nice picture. Most exciting to me is that I am a Canadian,too, because my mother was a Canadian citizen when I was born. I am just a little bit proud about that! I also learned that one can eat a meal that contains Brie cheese, mustard, catsup and live to tell about it.

[@TeresaHayes-tk7fc]

Thank you, Jay!

[@peterdyson4213]

Good morning Jay, My wife and I love watching your videos, just wanted to say that we do call it a junk of wood, Lol. Looks as though you have a great winter ahead, not so much for us, no snow or ice again this year. We live here in Cartwright lab. Keep the videos coming. Take cart be safe. Happy new year to you and yours.

[@larrysmith6499]

Very nice looking tent. Comforts of home

[@HisandHersOutdoors]

Everything has a place and everything in its place. My grandma's words i live by . Great vid as usual 👌

[@NovaScotiaSouthShore]

Love your channel Jay. The scenery is awesome. Thanks for taking me along.

[@hinrichspartners3281]

Thanks for great video Jay. I love that you mix in all the different locations you have set up for the winter. Really enjoy that. The new stove is great. Learned a lot about stoves from you. Thanks Jay and take care!!

[@EricStiefvater]

Always the best! So relaxing and inspiring… love watching

[@JamesWoodring-mu2iz]

yaaaahh! jays back for another cold a s adventure!

[@SmurffMuffin]

I think I found the s that you lost.

[@dskofich]

Thanks Jay

[@taylorstanton5058]

I love how he said the honey $20 honey bucket isn’t cheap but he just got a $800 stove and is using a $2000 tent hilarious😂

[@ChrisSnyder-b2f]

A great video Jay. Keep up the excellent work.

[@deanmartin9358]

The Tent looks fantastic i cant believe all that snow makes me think i have got to have a go but we get no snow if we do its normally gone next day i think the coldest we have had so far is minus 5 scotland probably nearer negative 15 but man that tent looks so cosy have a great week Jay

[@josephrsmith8542]

Living the dream man. Give yourself a break and enjoy a Guinness or two before bed.

[@ericstoever9577]

Great tent, great food, great weather, great video. Lots of great, Jay!

[@matiopat7032]

This tent is awasome Jay!

[@davespoemsandsongs9497]

Jay, enjoys all of your videos, you always have something different to do on your cabin of in your tent

[@KenC49]

Hi Jay! Looks like a really nice wood stove. It sure makes steak look tasty. lol. Clean floors, wood box filled, beds made, dishes done , ashes cleaned out of the stove and everything set up for another stay were always the rule at our hunting camp. My dad drilled that rule in our heads .

[@kenhorneland7060]

Have a-40 bag. Best thing I ever purchased 😎

[@famasmaster2000]

Always a great production Jay, well done 👍

[@mattseymour154]

jay thank you.

[@melissaburnett4479]

I always love the scenery of your videos. Thank you.

[@danielcronce6593]

Jay thankyou for your video your a brave man in that cold weather

[@jestonitorion239]

Thank you Jay for another amazing video, kudos to you.

[@christy76840]

I have 2 of those pans and they are really great!

[@DocProctor]

Me, like Jay, being out at -10 to -20C: "This is pleasant. Refreshing." My friends from the south of Europe, southern parts of the US, etc: "You're effing nuts!"

[@adriandamian4282]

Whenever i go to sleep,i'll watch your video..i like it ❤ from Sabah

[@sheepdogonthehill]

Love the tent videos

[@helenshull9834]

Do other people ever use your tent for emergency and replace what they use

[@valeriefrench9405]

Just wondering why you need two tents? Especially reasonably close to each other? Love the videos.

[@freerider604]

Excellent video Jay!

[@SueHutcheson-j3o]

I'm glad I found you. Thank you❤❤❤❤

[@jaylegere]

Thank you

[@madamecampsalot6384]

I miss camping in the snow. Thanks for letting me tag along.

[@daviddowding4489]

Love watching you. God Bless

[@MrConche3]

The job you do with you videos is phenomenal really enjoys watching

[@gerdhillmann-ulrich376]

Your food made me really hungry😋Beautiful winter forest, it's a great place to live! Many greetings from Germany🕊🍀✌

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Looks like an awesome stove Jay ! Your tent held up very well with all the snow 👍,

[@jacovanniekerk1352]

I don’t agree. I like it when he shares what he uses. Nice one Jay! Only thing is if you are going to spice your meat in the pan try spicing it just before you serve. The last minute one side and then the other side! I promise you will see the difference!

[@davesprague2445]

Love everything you do, keep up the good work and stay safe!!!

[@Anthonyz19]

We see your passion for the outdoors. Great video!

[@markgadson9663]

Instead of butter to cook steak use Ghee, it has a higher smoke point. The tast is nutty. Ghee is a type of clarified butter. that's made from heating butter and allowing the liquid and milk portion to separate from the fat. You can buy it already made or make it.

[@ipnpen311]

Another amazing episode Jay. Thank you sir.

[@kevinricketts5310]

That new sled sounds like a beast!!

[@lindasalas7828]

Another great video Jay, definitely clean and tidy up the place. Have a great day and say hi to Crystal.

[@FunfindersX]

Great video Jay 🎉

[@Just_CPaul]

Jay this is another great video!

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

It's to bad it leeks a little sot But you have to remember that you had no ash build up & you were burning wet 2+4's with ice on them, I think once you have a little ash it won't do that, & dry spruce , Great review 👍,

[@michaellewis9031]

Jay, have you heard of Wiggy's sleeping bags? look them up. The very best sleeping bags .. hands down. I really enjoy your videos and I look forward to to seeing you next one. keep up the good work, Mike

[@doyleholmes2490]

Jay, YOU ARE AN INSANE MAN but you are my kind of crazy! Sheesh, I've even got a blue plate like yours. LOL When I was younger I loved getting out in the cold and getting a red face. However, as I've aged I appreciate the warm more but I like seeing you enjoying being out defeating the winter cold with your fabulous tents and wood stoves. They didn't have those things in my day. (I'm 69 years old)

[@keymasterpilot]

Thanks for the nice video. Greetings from Greece!

[@robmetcalfe8902]

Awesome video your living the best life brother

[@pierrebear6686]

Never seen a stove leak like thst weird 🤔.....cant wait for update

[@100lsenior]

I like the sleep system. I would add two things. 100% wool blanket. Even in my 5th wheel I take a Bay Wool Blanket. Inside the sleeping bags I always have zip up fleece. Forestry taught me that.

[@Elysia-f1s]

Nice to see a normal person making little mistakes, thx for being a human and not a picture lperfect😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@kathylegere6752]

Some big feeling with that new machine!🎉❤

[@robertlethbridge6255]

Thanks for Sharing Jay Great Video.

[@TheTed169]

Hey Jay, how about working together with Pelican sleighs to come up with the ultimate survival sleigh that tows behind the skidoo. It would be the sleigh that is used in case of emergency on the ice that you can survive in for 24 hours. It would have heat; communication and you can bury it with snow for warmth, sort of like an igloo effect. Just a thought, keep on doing your thing and cheers from da ROCK!

[@iancoles480]

Another great one Jay! Hello from Voisey’s Bay
