LIVING IN A TENT ALL WINTER IN COLORADO: A FEW DAYS IN THE SNOW

[@amandab8433]

I have absolutely no inclination towards camping🏕️, especially in the cold, but I can't stop watching these incredible videos. It is really interesting to see someone so dedicated to the lifestyle.

[@maryshaffer8474]

Could you imagine?

[@amandab8433]

@@maryshaffer8474 Nope 😜. Years ago my husband took me and the kids (ages 3, 9, and 11 at the time) camping for 7 days in Yosemite. It rained and snowed for 6 of the days, and even though we had a hardsided tent trailer I was miserable. He and the kids had blast, but ultimately my idea of camping would be a stay at the The Awahnee 👀🏕️🏢😉🤣. My kids are 17, 23 and 25 now, and are very outdoorsy, camping, hiking, canoeing, mountain biking, etc. My husband helped foster a love of nature, and I'm really glad for that ❤️. I do like watching these videos though 😁

[@ralphnuolo3359]

This is insane ! But I will try this at least once in my life .

[@deetrvl4life875]

I just love how Sierra stands there and waits for you to brush her off or wipe her down before she gets up on ‘her bed’!! You’re both awesome!! I love these cold weather videos, thank you again.

[@michaeldennison436]

They learn pretty quickly depending on the dogs nature. Our Aussie Doodle loves to be toweled off after snow or rain (all I have to say is towel and she stands and waits). Our Duck Toller no way, she has sort of a heavy double coat fur and could care less about being toweled, she actually rubs her back in the snow daily if she gets a chance and then shakes off.

[@SassyMa_]

So cute right

[@scottfast03]

I love how she knows to wait by the bed until you dust her off before she can jump up. Dogs are the best friends! Enjoy your time out there with that girl

[@sCotto359]

Hello from WV may god continue to bless you and Sierra watch over and protect you both in his name Amen

[@myheartisinthemountains2660]

I love how Sierra likes being tucked in. 😊

[@TheArtOfDean]

To have peace and quiet, along with solitude when you want it, is the ultimate while being outdoors.

[@yalinwyan]

Love the way you treat your dog, best company anyone could ask for

[@prospect8696]

Love to see how much you love your dog.

[@princessalucia1759]

Sierra looks so healthy and happy, wonderful!

[@RecordsLotus_]

Someone definitely loves the snow. Sierra is such a ham, jumping and dancing around in the snow. Delightful video.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Thanks for tuning in! Yes, Sierra is so much fun to be around in the snow. She literally loses her mind with excitement. ~ Brian

[@krystal1999]

What a happy pup!!! She's so beautiful!! Nothing like having one as a best friend!!

[@aliceg9571]

Nice to have a roomy, warm tent to get into. Sierra is super cute. She was so excited to find that bone. Love to see her being so happy. Your love for each other is so heart warming to see. Looks like she’s not even cold out there. I’m shaking just watching. Be safe and warm til the next one.

[@helenhull7768]

Makes me smile when I see you and Sierra together... in the moment sharing love! She is a good girl!!!

[@jcogs9440]

Have you ever thought of using the truck as a partial windbreak when it gets bad?

[@williammassey911]

I had that same thought.

[@TheLmori3]

Great idea

[@christian_lied]

I’m taking this idea for the future

[@Forever_Golden]

Love your videos! It is so relaxing to watch you and your pup surrounded by nature and all of its splender. God bless

[@kkrot81]

Omgosh your friends with Barron and Elsa!! I have also been subscribed to their YT channel forever as well! Super cool you guys know each other. Idk why it’s just pretty rad when 2 of my fave channels get together 😉.

[@michaelrice3538]

We like your videos, particularly the ones about living in the tent during snow storms. Anyone who loves a dog is a friend of ours. We have two rescue dogs and treat them like they're our children. Keep the videos coming!

[@xtrekkmpr2016]

Both you and Sierra look great! Enjoy your time out there -the videos are kicking!!👍🏼👍🏼

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Thank you, we are both feeling better! Still a ways to go but things are slowly improving. I'm really glad winter camping season is here! ~ Brian

[@aliash8599]

Sierra is sooo amazing !!! There is nothing like having your bestie with you. May God bless you both 🙏

[@juliannaerwin3438]

Looks so beautiful and peaceful. enjoy your posts very much.

[@ChrismDove]

Thank you Brian and Sierra for putting a smile on my face and warming my heart with this awesome camping video in the snowy beauty of the mountains. I hope one day to camp like this. Can't in the heat. Just love these videos. God bless you both!

[@shwetasingh-qp1dr]

The most beautiful girl" Sierra 🐾🐾💕❤️💕💕💕😘💕❤️' the queen of Colorado

[@anthonychihuahua]

"The Queen of Colorado", that's very fitting, because Denver Colorado is known as "The Queen City of the Plains". 🌾

[@sarawong2241]

I love ❤️ how U love ❤️ Sierra. Makes me smile when U talk to her. Love watching your channel too, so calming and enjoyable. Thank U x

[@MamaZShaman]

Really awesome! 6 degrees here right now. Think I would enjoy this too, have 3 in my Pack larger dogs and a tiny one! After leaving Santa Cruz in 2002, coming to Northeast Minnesota for 19 years now have learned a bit about winter, dressing for it, getting out, the tent, and all looks amazing. I may get a bus soon and make that same move with the pups and when it warms up get the wood stove like you got.

[@TheProductions101]

I was watching Elsa Rhae & Barron channel and they are snowboarding pass your tacoma and im like "HEYY I KNOW THAT TACOMA!!!!" haha I had no idea that you guys knew each other!!!

[@Mospp08]

Thanks for these videos they are wonderful to watch out here in the middle of the pacific

[@OffRampAdventures]

Hard to believe a frigid wilderness is lying just outside your cozy thin canvas tent! You make it look so easy!

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Thanks Off Ramp Adventures, the wood stove is a massive help!

[@beekind466]

I'm here for the calm. Glad you're doing better!!😊✌🙋‍♀️

[@ONLY31363]

Hi Brian & Sierra👋 Always fills my HEART w/HAPPINESS when I c a 'FUR BABY ENJOYING LIFE!!👍 Thanks 4 alll U do 4 her Brian😃 Nice 2 c U 'BOTH Doing Well💯

[@holt4th438]

i think a canvas wall tent would fit his life style pretty well, easy to setup and durable

[@itsanorristhing3825]

Love all your videos I could watch you and Sierra everyday! Sierra so beautiful with her big eyes! I am hoping they start making these tents again my husband tried to buy one through your link before you told us why it was a mo go! Thanks for always keeping us informed. Finding your channel and wstching your winter camping got us out and loving! ❤Much love hope you and Sierra stay safe & healthy❤🐾🐾 My cat Bear has the same thing Sierra so extra love and hugs to her🐶🐾🐾🐱

[@athenaspencer4684]

❤❤❤👋😁 Aww how sweet...Ms S was so happy when Barron came sliding by.

[@ginaallen3797]

Sierra is like a 6 month old puppy in the snow,. That keeps her and you young. We got a few inches of snow yesterday afternoon with maybe a bit more on Monday. But yeah cold, single digits this morning. I opened the chicken coop and everyone just stood in the door as if to say, nope not now and i don't blame them. I have to clean the coop out today and replenish their bedding. Since it there is a beautiful sun out there with zero clouds that will not be unpleasant at all. Hope you have a good remainder of your time at your current location. Peace Out from Angry Old HIppie Hermit at Old HIppieland.

[@ericstoever9577]

So glad you’re both healthier and doing well. Makes for a truly happy holiday!

[@LawrenceBroussard]

I like the idea of the tent with no floor for the winter!

[@kseigmund]

It's good to see you and Sierra back to your old selves...

[@terripennington9881]

Well woke up this Sunday morning to alot of snow here in Northwest Arkansas in Bentonville . It snowed all day here. Lots of big flakes. We got about four inches. Kids out playing in it. Young adults playing on skis and snow boarding. I like snow ice cream but never eat the first snow. First real snow we've had in several years. Schools all closed tomorrow. Kids will be glad,parents will be mad. Haha! You are still getting snow yourself. I'm ready for spring. You have a pretty dog . Stay safe and thanks for the video.😷😂

[@flaviahermeto]

Your videos are great! Back here, in Brasil, where de summer is really getting harsh, I can almost feel the winter there! Wow. And I just LOVE Sierra...❤

[@evopwrmods]

Seems like a small portable insulated Yurt would be way more comfortable than this tent. but to each their own. Round spaces are so much easier to heat, no dead end corners where the cold temp hideout, making the rest of the tent colder....Good Luck with your winter time adventures, thnxx for sharing !!!

[@Beth-ie]

Loving it! Can't imagine a winter tent with no floor, but, okay... you know more than I! 🎄

[@katherinenicholas7116]

Consideration for a winter tent with no floor: The ground will defrost with the stove and become muddy...underneath everything...your bed, the dogs feet, the living space you cook in, etc. Personally I'd rather deal with the floor. Love your videos!

[@mikeguentzel]

Loved seeing all the snow! Thanks for the video.

[@jackirichard414]

Awe Sierra is so cute frolicing in the snow.

[@BramhanPutra]

Lot's of love from India

[@marcs8991]

She is such a beautiful pup

[@daviddougher8637]

the simple life////this is how everyone should be

[@bobbyvalentine9108]

Love your videos. I used to camp out in the Gunnison National Forrest and San Juan National Forrest all the time. I moved to the coast. I need to get back.

[@lisabailon1010]

Life looks great you, your best friend, mountains.

[@sebastianiosbud1309]

You are actually living life !

[@hannahsgrace4U]

It's good to see you both feeling better!

[@Mrs.KatsCrafting]

are you using the dog as a bed warmer? lol I know when my dog moves and I sit down the seat is nice and toasty you need some kind of runner to put on the ground coming into the tent living area I think that every video i watch is like how does he keep from tracking all that inside. I love watching Sierra play in the snow

[@marlynveloz6837]

I love the way you take care your dog🐶🐶🐶🐶🐕🐕🐕🐕

[@jackirichard414]

Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@MrPriebster]

I moved back to South Dakota from Colorado and I miss the snow and being able to enjoy the snow in the winter

[@jackirichard414]

Beautiful views of the mountains.

[@vanessaboman8143]

I am not a winter bod ... BUT ... You make it look so darn gorgeous, fun and joyous... I just hate being cold though... But ... I am closer to exploring the idea .. Here in the U.K .... Like up in the highlands... But we dont have backcountry like you guys do ... Just love watching Sierra enjoy everything!

[@lindawoods6841]

Looks great out there,, we are finally getting some snow.. and love it.

[@aliciajames505]

Have you ever thought of getting a yurt? It would be much warmer. Yurts are awesome. I’d love to have one.

[@shellyfahren1936]

Good to see you, and B&E back in SoCo! I recognize those views on you guys' videos again! You're looking a lot healthier, Brian. Good to see. =)

[@blumiblumi1646]

Hallo from Hamburg, Germany..🌻🍀😁

[@marktraum9139]

The wind was howling last night here in Conejos and there's drifts in my yard.

[@shellyfahren1936]

I'm in Conejos County..... Same.

[@ostranderterry]

Love the dog! Beautiful area out there

[@rhettharkleroad6105]

Always look forward to your uploads !

[@beckywilliams2467]

Hey from Nova Scotia, have a great day, it looks beautiful 😍

[@dustymiller7758]

Great vid again, good entertainment, love the scenery.

[@rachelhope3161]

Wow! That view is gorgeous!

[@forcesightknight]

Are you in my back yard? I insulate with recycled cardboard because it's free. Bubble foil from the home store work best though, if you keep mobile. Also, if you have space, the concrete installation tarps are literally LIFE SAVERS in the freezing cold. Stay safe.

[@dukefitzhugh3774]

hey bud I'm coming up there the begging of January from Arkansas where do you recommend the best camping in the mountains up there

[@fognnorway6471]

Great video. normally i like winter camping, but I'm building a house west of Custer. So this winter kinda sucks.

[@kelbyfrazier6849]

What type of tent do you have again? Do you have an affiliate link to buy it off Amazon or anything like that?

[@charlottescott6609]

Sierra such a great girl loves her dad 👍👍👍😘😘😘

[@matthewbridges1438]

Dude! I just got some snow too!!! I live in Oklahoma. And get little to no snow ever. But we got some!

[@nickob55]

very impressed with the gopro, amazing quality.......and find it pretty interesting that I have virtually the same stove in my bedroom in Bulgaria and having a bit of snow here too, we have lots of very clear still very cold nights here which is my favourite time of year.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Right on, thanks for tuning in from Bulgaria! Hope you've had a great weekend, thank you for watching ~ Brian

[@tammiethomas4682]

I want Sierras life

[@kylefox4272]

The beard is lookin good brother

[@dj_ath]

Were getting dumped on in San Miguel County. Hope all is well 🙏

[@samrice1015]

i always thought long term winter camping was a weird south dakota person type of deal and then i see the plates. whats up spearfish? lol good content btw. just noticed your channel a couple days ago and been enjoying for sure.

[@pamelabussey1797]

sure looks pretty (and cold) love your videos

[@forcesightknight]

Also, I forgot to mention, I just used mistint outdoor paint to weather proof my tents. Because my camp is in the sun all year, I use the paint because it gives a UV barrier. UVs will weaken a tent, then high winds kick in and you get a catastrophic rip in the worst possible conditions.

[@petethomas7760]

Tent Living is very nice 🙂😊🙂

[@louisemerriman1079]

Watching from Manchester uk in my warm cozy bed.

[@K49571675]

Have you ever considered using an ice fishing hub style shelter for winter camping?

[@itsmemorgannew]

I noticed you in Elsa and Barron's video, staying in that rent with those 35mph winds, and had to check u out....

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Good Morning Morganne, thank you for checking out my channel! It's a chilly start to the day here in my tent but I'm hanging out by the stove with my dog working on a video. My next post will have all my footage from the really windy night. I barely got any sleep that night.

[@christian_lied]

What a cute creek!

[@Feinization]

The real star is Sierra actually!😘❤️😄

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

You are 100% correct about that!! She's awesome :)

[@clarity20]

Brian that pressure cooker will make a great tasting corn beef also! Try it!

[@butwereallsombdyspecial]

I would think having a bottom connected to the tent would be a must for keeping out the cold draft from the bottom?

[@sarahb6714]

-9c. That must be some stove. The scenery is awesome there

[@LidiasWorld007]

Hello from Washington State!! 🌲😁

[@kseigmund]

Sierra's nose with snow on it!!!😂😍

[@TruckHouseLife]

Looks like you're in it duder!

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

I'm lovin' it down here in Colorado! We usually don't get snowstorms this early in the season and so far I've experienced 4...hope this is a sign of storms all winter! I love this sort of stuff. Hope all is well up in AK!

[@jackirichard414]

Hi Brian and Sierra.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Hi Jacki, hope you are having a nice Sunday :)

[@SN-qu2gz]

Wow you are looking much healthier than the last video I saw you in. Did you ever figure out what the problem was?

[@jefffoggymountainworkshop5021]

Your dog loves the cold!! When you are in the deep freeze of night what is the internal temp of your tent? Is it comfortable or still chilly? Great content by the way....

[@MyKnifeJourney]

How do you find such great locations? Keep up the great work. I really find your videos informative and interesting.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Thanks Scott, I've been able to scout out these spots by driving 4x4 trails in the winter over the past 6 years to see what I can still access once snow starts flying. Most trail systems are closed so it takes quite a bit of poking around to find good winter camping sites that are accessible. Over the past 6 years, I've located about 20 really great winter camping sites.

[@freedomexplorer360]

Can you give details about how to use the pressure cooker?

[@psychee07]

What brand is your stove? Where can we order it from? 💕 Love it! Thank you for putting out awesome videos!

[@allalone1461]

how about a tent inside a tent? or a tarp to avoid ice? any other suggestions? can you park your vehicle to block most of the wind? Insulated Otter tent may be better

[@mchouse7358]

I love watching your vids💜💜💜

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Thanks for tuning in! ~ Brian

[@lisalowery4849]

Another question. Why don't you have a couple of buckets to collect snow, and melt for water?
