Man Sleeps in a Hot Tent with Wood Stove

I'm finally sleeping in a hot tent with a wood stove. I've been waiting for months to have a hot tent experience and I am so glad the time is now. This is an awesome adventure. Starts off stinky, then it ends up wet, but all in all a perfect trip!

[@pav431]

I know it's not that much, but thanks a ton for making your videos, they help me relax and be happy in times of stress

[@jaylegere]

Thanks so much for supporting the channel. This is a really nice comment to wake up to this morning. I hope you have a good day. Jay

[@timcurry192]

Nothing like the sound of rain on a hot tent. Gorgeous scenery! One gentle suggestion, Jay - a one-gallon ziplock bag with one set of dry socks, one set of clean undies, bottom of the pack. And a pair of camp moccasins for when the boots need to dry. Man, have I ever been there, done that! Stepping in primeval poo - done that too. I don't know where it comes from either...

[@Roheryn100]

Or stick a spare pair in one of the pockets of the tent….

[@evelynlopez7596]

So much fun to watch, love how you laugh at yourself, your have such a positive attitude

[@rebeccareed6824]

Ditto on t H e Ziploc bags. That's what I did while in Girl Scouts. Always had extras to.

[@eliworley6804]

Jay this is the reason I love you. Nothing ever gets you down. When things go bad you just shake it off and keep moving forward, until you succeed. You have the most wonderful laugh and that brings all of your subscribers right up with you. Keep up all the wonderful things you do.

[@samsrailventures1961]

Really enjoyed when you talked about how you've changed from preferring summer to now fall and winter. Your personal stories about not having a snowmobile (you're old enough to still call it that), but enjoying your friends' machines brought back memories of growing up in MI. I enjoyed summer, because it meant going to the lake. But my whole life I really loved the snow. Mom says when I was a child, she worried about me playing outside, but she'd look out the window and I'd still be happily playing in it. So, yeah, I guess I've always been a winter guy. I live in a place now that doesn't get much snow, so I miss it. I get my winter "fix" by watching your channel.

[@jaylegere]

Love this comment. Thanks for telling us a bit about your childhood. Jay

[@kingglizzer]

Jay is the happiest guy up there year round.

[@SusanneMilewski-b3q]

Great video! There’s nothing better than the sound of wind and rain when you’re cozied up in your tent and with the wood stove. Looking forward to winter at the cabin.

[@stevesokolowski9556]

Jay you are so cathartic. You're videos and journeys help me relax after work every single time I see one when I get home. Thank you for documenting your life on this journey

[@stevesokolowski9556]

You're a blessing brother. My sister lived in Dawson for a few years. Always wanted to visit her. She's in Halifax now in school. Just keep it going 😀

[@erichillerich2413]

Can't say it enough Jay. Thank you so much for sharing your camps with us!!!

[@kyle_veld]

Keep doing what your doing! I'll be here to watch! I was with you from the beginning, and remember you saying "Someday I'll have a cabin" and "Someday I'll do this full time" You've arrived! Awesome to see how far you've come.

[@jaylegere]

Thanks for sticking around all these years, Kyle!

[@chrislowther1897]

Love the Bo Jackson reference, he was the first super athlete of my generation. You forgot to mention the time he actually broke the bat over his head. 😂 Thanks for the great videos, Jay. Please keep them coming!

[@pwr6038]

I think it was his knee not his head

[@Jeremy_936]

Your right, he did both.... over his knee and over his head. Granted, he broke the bat over his head after he cracked it trying to hit a home run, but still...one tough dude

[@stevegamm2724]

Agree. Loved watching Bo. Auburn alum here.

[@hithere7382]

@@Jeremy_936 Traumatic brain injuries are cumulative and can lead to pretty nasty long-term effects. I pray you never have to find out first hand.

[@judithdavis7437]

Very nice! I’ve never been camping!! 77 yrs old and I regret that!!

[@robertlemoine3500]

Jay keep your axe sharp , much more safe and fun . Great program ,greetings from Alberta .😊

[@robertlemoine3500]

Razor sharp , keep it that way , it becomes a much more versatile tool .

[@AChildofLightHEATHER]

I LOL every time you are looking at your food and say, OH BABY 😅 you make everything sound so good!

[@meganpetroff5537]

The food you always make, always looks so fantastic. Enjoy!

[@brad9745]

What a FANTASTIC start to the day a Jay video. Man so jealous. Keep up the great work.

[@petersapakesq]

Awesome videos, from a Canadian/Floridian

[@gymrat2647]

Awesome about Bo Jackson being mentioned in this video. Liked watching Bo play

[@mikeparker3865]

Bo knows camping!

[@sandrataylor3723]

Enjoyed the video. Sorry you got muck on you that was "stinky". Being wet was miserable enough but when you add stink into the equation...well, not good. I like how you make the most of a not so good situation. Live and learn. You'll have a lot of stories to tell your grandchildren one day. Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@eddiez1247]

Bo knows camping.

[@MikeChiz603]

I love that you are not afraid to share your shortcomings and embrace the unknown. Great video, can’t wait for the next one.

[@CharlesA24]

Editing is on point jay. Love from Montréal.

[@jaylegere]

Thanks very much

[@KevinWarawa-sk5mk]

Hello Jay. Love watching your videos. We go hunting every fall in the mountains in Alberta and we stay in outfitter tents with wood stoves. I love that little stove you have but I did notice that the pipes fit into each other the opposite of what they should The flanged part should be facing up and the non flanged part should go into it that way So when you have creosote from the wood and it leaks down it goes straight back into the stove and not leak at your flanged joints and down your pipe on the outside and smoke and stink up the tent Just a little thing I’ve learned from many years of staying in tents with a wood stove. Keep up the great videos 👍🏼

[@mayramoore6313]

Jay, you are an inspiration because you are determined to make the most out of your situation, you also show that you are resourceful in the event you need help. I enjoy your enthusiasm and hard work. Thank you from Texas! 🏕️⛺️

[@jeannemarcinek4575]

I am glad that you take safety in bear country and still feel safe. Food looked good glad you brought us along. Blessings

[@J-Williams]

His food ALWAYS looks good! 🤤

[@Lissa-eh5bg]

Lovely place to camp. I started with a tent similar to yours. I saved my money and bought a large box pop up. We loved it and my niece, daughter and Mom. Plus my Siamese cat! I would tell her do you want to go camping, she would run to get into her kennel. I liked the camp grounds with our power, etc. It was quieter. The stove you have looks like a game changer, keep you toasty warm. I enjoy your video. Thanks for taking us to explore your part of the world. Be safe

[@outofthehousecamping]

Awesome video - I camp nearly every weekend, been hot tent camping and there is something about being out and surviving a cold cold winters night chill burning wood!! It is a great feeling you get, i dont know what it is about it, its just good!! Enjoyed this video keep on getting out of the house my friend!

[@scottharter6511]

I am a die hard Bama fan but have to admit watching Bo play in college was something else.

[@terryattewell5842]

That was an awesome adventure Jay, thanks for bringing us along!!

[@pamelaspurrell8067]

I absolutely love the sound of rain when I'm inside a tent or camper! I have severe insomnia, but when I'm in that situation, I sleep like a baby....lol. Love your videos.... keep up the great work!!! Btw, I loved your story time... should do it more!!! Hugs from NL!!!

[@sandratweedale2579]

It’s so fun to spend another visit with you J. It’s so great that you have this ability to laugh at your mishaps then just keep going. I really admire that about you. Thanks for sharing these adventures. Have fun!

[@eliworley6804]

Jay the best thing about this video is no bears showed up to have you for a late night snack!!

[@richardrich4320]

Jay - your channel is one of the best ones and I keep watching almost all of them ! All the best bud !

[@trina6018]

Jay, I just love watching your videos. You make building a fire look so easy!

One of my favorite baseball cards growing up was my "Bo Breaker" card.

Hey Jay! Just love your videos! Please keep up the great work! Splitting the log, when it split with one hit…..😊The giggle…makes me laugh every time! Thank you!!

[@Stooner72]

Born, raised, and still here in the prairies of Canada and absolutely LOVE the fall and winter. That said, I'm fortunate I can pick and choose (mostly) when I want to be out in the cold. Still got a week of +30c temps ahead, but fall is definitely showing it's signs, and soon enough the winter tires will be out! Loved this video Jay, thank you!

[@flybywire5866]

Good food is the number one mood and morale booster.

[@patbeaudoin4237]

Nice little cozy camping trip thanks for sharing. Going camping this weekend can't wait to go. 🙂🇨🇦👍👍👍👍

I'm sure I'm not the first one but I can't help my self. "Bo knows" 👍

[@jimreppy8874]

Man you explaining fall and winter now that you are older is the reason I’ve been watching for years. Found a group that thinks the same as me. Just be careful with that ax and your knee. Don’t need you getting hurt on us haha

[@RickHarper-lg2yp]

I have watch a lot of your videos since I think from the start.And I just love them.

[@mikemaruno5984]

Thank you Jay for all the great content you make

[@mrrs8118]

Quite the surprise sinking in the sand so quickly! Glad you got out. Fun to see the juniper bushes - I drink juniper berry tea.

[@JohnyLingo]

Let’s get Jay to 1M subscribers. I’ve been following him since before his had his first year round tent. He would talk things through with us before making a move. Like the foundation for a year round tent. Now he makes a move and admits his mistakes. Very honest man who is livin’ his dream!

[@susanford1598]

I understand what you mean about getting better each time, I’m a fine detail artist and every painting I do has a challenge in it, something I haven’t done before… I do this to challenge myself, it’s how we grow, it’s how we get better physically and mentally. Love your channel ❤

So glad to hear from you so soon.😊😄😃😀☺️🫠🙃🙂💯💯👍👍👍👍

Jay, having been a sub for years, it was so nice to see you enjoy your trip, connect with what you love and share your thoughts with us. Gives me inspiration for my channel and the coming fall. ✌️

Hi Jay! I love Fall and Winter too. I love your stories and you should do more of that. I love the thought, skill, and enjoyment you add to your videos. I love how you teach us how to survive in Northern Canada. Thanks!

Another great video and adventure 👍

[@theglamgram]

Yay! Jay is hot tent camping! Loved this. I give you credit for not going home to change and starting over. I would have! 😂

[@NAV-tv7xf]

Note to self. Bring extra socks and boots.

[@msfeistybabe]

And pants lol, might as well grab a shirt & some extra thick wipes!

[@jackiegluszczyk8369]

Jay I really like the mix you have with camping and I agree each time you are out I'm seeing the changes in the camp sites almost like you are giving yourself a challenge. And I'm loving it.

[@daveparsons2082]

Another awesome video Jay.

[@famasmaster2000]

Awesome video ! Love to see survival from start to finish in a tent in a secluded area, great job and great meal 👍🏼 Great start to what will be an adventurous winter im sure. Im already excited for you 😊

[@leerod]

Your great Jay !😊

[@moonrakerelite6905]

Jay, one of your videos came across my suggested on KZbin when you just started out all those years ago. You were one, if not the first channel I had ever subscribed to. And you were the first channel I ever left a comment on. And I still almost never comment on any videos, mainly just yours. Havent missed a single video yet. You mentioned in this video about not being the "perfect outdoorsman." That's what actually made me click subscribe way back when. You were an everyday man. You were doing this on your time off. Figuring it all out as you kept going out to your original canvas tent. You took the leap and went out and did something you'd been wanting to. It was refreshing to find an outdoor/camping/DIY channel that wasn't trying too hard or was taking themselves too seriously. It's been a journey, Jay. Your skills and knowledge have grown and grown over the years. Impressive to say the least. Excited to see the cold weather rolling in up there. More canvas tent videos are on the horizon!! I'm here for it.

[@chazchilly9697]

Not only was that foot STARK WHITE…it Stuck to high heaven Jay 😂😂 Love the vid Mate!

Really enjoy your videos Jay!! I also don't like autumn mainly because of the diminishing light. I actually look forward to winter solstice around December 21 in the Northern Hemisphere because days get longer after that.

[@samhill3496]

Your training , newspaper communication skills are very good. Come across good. Don't ever wory about that. Do what you can and have fun. It's not supposed to be pain and misery as some like.

Thanks, Jay! I share your feelings about Fall and Winter--magical times of year!

Sorry you fell in that horrible quick sand must have been awful. Enjoyed your video. Love from Caroline Butler from UK ❤

[@hollyp6395]

Good morning! A little bit of insomnia and i got to watch your video. That is a good morning! I get what you are saying about the stove. just the added comfort alone would do it for me. Amazing views, looks so serene and relaxing. Glad you found that spot and left the first one. Fall is my favorite season, we are going to north georgia for the apple festival in october. i can hardly wait for the colors!!! i can only imagine the beauty in northern canada! Until next time!

Jay, my perfect fire starter is a ball of dryer lint in an egg container soaked in leftover bacon grease. Fill up an empty egg carton with these and store them in a ziploc bag. Stay lit for 5 mins or more and totally free!

You are persistent. If I had stepped into that sewer pit, I would have turned around and gone home to clean up. I'm glad you didn't. Your videos are always so relaxing and entertaining. A hot tent and a good hot meal are what camping is all about. Thanks for the extra video this week. Safe travels.
