Good on ya, both of you, freedom of the outdoors, fair play doing it in a tent, my misses and i were part of the travelling community 30 years ago, we were labelled new age travellers but you only really travel during the festival season, most of the ttwe were static on a site somewhere. We lived in trailers/caravans and trucks mostly, done the picking season round Kent, Cornwall and Evesham for money and normally got a park up on the farm we worked on, sometimes in a tent. Crowboruogh Barracks near Tunbridge Wells was a huge site, biggest in Europe, parties galore, we live in a house now, had kids on the road but got a house to bring them up in, we didnt think it was fair dragging them around the country. All the best to the both of you. P.S. if you A frame that tarp itll shed the snow a lot easier bud 👍🏻

There's enough dead wood out there to make an a frame, to hang your tarp over to shed snow better, you could also use those fir tree branches to help insulate under the tarp, fair play to you both for living like this, stay safe

Could do with a ridgeline for your tarp, get a nice peak on so rain and snow doesnt build up

[@Robert-tj3qq]

I'm doing that tonight . Were expecting 1 -1/4 of rain Thursday/ Friday. I have a teepee and wood stove setup and a Eureka Timberline 4 which I put a big tarp over it I use bungee cords between two trees with plenty of coverage .plus the timberline has a rainfly. I'm staying in the Eureka. Teepee ( polomy) is in rough shape. The zippers suck on tents . They need to start using military grade ones. We definitely need the rain !!! It's been a drought around here in Connecticut. Looking forward to Winter and hopefully some snow .

Rain doesn't build up, the snow does when freezing and bonding to the wet frozen tarp. But all cool, not our first rodeo.. at 10+yrs in. But need the tarp for the circumference as explained. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

Might be worth emailing some companies and offerring to do reviews for tent, backpack etc your reviews would be long term usage and very informative. Tara you are extremely talented and you are an artist. If i wasnt a 74 year old pensioner i would definately buy the cow moo dy one for my wife. Maybe you could consider selling signed prints of an original for a cheaper price?. I love nature and birds. Maybe you could sell christmas cards ( 6 prints and an envelope of your drawing of a robin etc).Wish you both well keep on living the dream.

[@tomsco7]

I have that same tent, I find in winter dropping the length of the poles so the gap between the floor and tent outer is smaller/touching the ground keeps the draft out

[@loghoppers]

Bad idea, because we condensate, and then it'll freeze and you're sleeping in a freezer. That's why the Tarp is up, but yes... it's a good idea if a tarp is up and you're not condensed... thus, not going to freeze. It's not windy enough for us to drop it. The colder it gets... you need the air flow, but the windier it gets... lower it to stop the wind wrapping up underneath and possibly bending a pole or lifting you to space lmao.

[@merk3574]

I’m sure you have your own way of doing things and I don’t know how you have the tent set up but have you considered a couple of thermal space blankets? They are basically silver foil plastic, they fold up very small and fit in your pocket. They would be great to have just loosely draped over you when you’re sat around or spread over your sleeping bags to keep that little extra bit of heat in. Also having a thermal mat like a yoga mat or the silver bubble wrap underneath you would make a massive difference keeping you warm. Stay safe and don’t be too stubborn if it’s that cold find somewhere to get indoors to warm up, there’s lots of places offering things like that.

[@loghoppers]

@merk3574 Hiya and thank you. We are not sleeping in a crisps packet even IF we got cold. Have a look at our long stay video, bag reveal and so on... we been at this for donkeys. So very adapt to what we do and don't need walkers to wrap us up lol 😆 OK in an emergency situation during mountain rescue and water etc. But nothing we incorporate into our Nomadic lifestyle. P.S.... it's OK to feel cold in winter, just like summer when we all moan saying 'it's too hot' sunstroke, heat stroke and so on. Cheers for your comment and concern, but we're alright.. we vets.

[@oioi-skank548]

New sub Just a thought all my tarps have loops,couldn't you just nake a loop straight up so your tarp is very taught in a tipi kind of shape

[@loghoppers]

@oioi-skank548 Definitely yes in that situation... it could work. However, the tarp is good to keep the heavy snow and ice off the tent and if we were to condensate, we'd freeze . So the tarp is set up this way to give maximum coverage over the tent, so the tent will stay dry. The problem with icey snow, is that it bonds to the moisture and that stays frozen. In turn lifting the tarp will reduce the overall circumference of coverage allowing for that snowbomb to fall in our doors lol. Cheers for commenting and HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

[@Gazr965]

Perhaps tarp should have more supports to avoid valleys. Gaz UK

[@loghoppers]

Yeah, then I'd lose what it's actually there for... the circumference needs to be on the tent to avoid the tent getting wet, wet = cold = freeze. So yeah, 10yrs in... we knows what we doing. Welcome to our channel and HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼👍🏼

When I’m camping it’s my nose that gets cold and wakes me up! Any tips?!

[@loghoppers]

@thedubwhisperer2157 technically no, even with the best equipment we've seen people go cold and whilst trying to mimic indoors in the outdoors. Acclimation is our best choice 10+ years in. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

@tinycroft1184 Yep, wear a woolly hat and scarf whilst sleeping... get too hot, pull it down or lift up. Can't breath... lift one or drop the other if that makes sense? Top tip.... don't breath into your bag to warm you up, the moisture build up will pay you back for it later. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

Put something under the tarp to take the weight.

[@loghoppers]

Can you not see the pole in the middle lol. Yeah, good idea. But the ice snow is super heavy and can build up very quickly adding alot of weight, this in turn will collapse the tarp or tear it. So best to keep it clear to save disaster recovery. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

If the tarp was at a steeper angle it would shed some of the snow automatically. Stay warm guys.

[@loghoppers]

@matthewbrookes6749 yeah, steeper angle we're all for but.... it would allow the snow or dripping wet moisture to cover more of the tent and thus the tent will free as opposed to the tarp. Not only that... I get a great view ever 30mins and warm up too if needed lol. So not all is lost or bad, it's an invigorating time to be had. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

Your dog looks cold.

[@loghoppers]

@Seeking_Gnosis He loves it and he's a German Shep. Seen him shiver only once in 5yrs. He paces in houses, hates indoors, doesn't settle until we're back home in our tent, then will finally settle or run about having fun in the forest. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

[@loghoppers]

@Seeking_Gnosis not to mention... if he was to ever get cold or wants soothing... he'll come between us, we open our bags and snuggle in and he knows we've super love for him, his freedom and quality of life... he's travelled everywhere around the UK 🇬🇧 and has seen, felt, experienced so many things. One of a kind. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼

[@Pugggle]

He's double coated so he's fine

[@battlebbot]

As your lives are at risk living in a tent at this time of year, is the local council not obliged to provide emergency accommodation? How are you able to generate power to charge batteries?

[@loghoppers]

@battlebbot OK 👍🏼 We'll start here... please watch our videos and read our bio. We are not seeking help, house or any such bs.. we are very happy in our lifestyle and gave up VERY affluent jobs to live this way and be here in nature, in the cold, in the rain, in anything mother nature can and will throw at us. We love it!! Every minute of it!! It makes us feel human, connected and alive. Could pay us 20million tomorrow and we'd give it away just to continue our life this way. HAPPY HOPPING 👌🏼 👍🏼
