Talking Winter Camping...Part 1

[@dwayneg8486]

I love it when a Shug video pops up before bed.

[@TimoGoesKnots]

I live in Finland so this came out just in time for my morning coffee! ;)

[@shugemery]

Hei hei....

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@dwayneg8486]

Timo Haapasaari Hyvaa huomenta .....I hope that’s right 😂

[@Woodswalker1965]

You speak the truth my friend! Start out cold, hike warm not hot and strip off the sweaty layers when you get to camp. Words to camp by. Thank you for another great one , Wade

[@shugemery]

I've learned the hard way!

[@nemsysI]

Some things are truly and they never change. And Shug is proving (showing, teaching, ...) this in the most funniest and clever way. Absolutely catching. In 1988, when I was 11 years old, I was climbing a small peak in Pirin Mountain, Bulgaria, with my grandma during the winter. And I've experienced (and remembered) her advice: keep your feet warm - no matter how, make a "sandwich" with your socks and nylon bags , if you don't have something more appropriate... Such small, but truly things, can save lives.

[@shugemery]

It is true that cold feet can ruin the day! Thankee Iva.

[@WeHaveSomuchHeart]

A true American Hero. Thank you.

[@shugemery]

Just an American. No hero...just a show-off. Thankee!

[@uss_liberty_incident]

I'm currently hanging in a BB XLC in some toasty 27F weather, and am lucky enough to have signal. I watched this a few times over and your tips have made my night a lot warmer. Thanks for all you do!

[@shugemery]

Whooooooo Buddy)))))

[@1128wolfman]

Hope your shoulder is doing well shug, thanks for the video

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@everhat]

I really dug this video, Shug...thanks for sharing.

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and thanks. Hope it gave some insight.

[@cmanofthewoodscentralus3217]

Thanks. Looking forward to Part 2.

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy)))))

[@brianhetrick1301]

Shug shatters shivery slumber simply stating sound solutions!

[@shugemery]

Loving the alliteration!

[@mariodemetrioucmt660]

Shug you are awesome. First video I've watched of yours was you showing off your fancy feast stove. I was already a basic hanger but you helped bring me to my next level, now time to rewatch you before I head out for my first trip in the high teens. Thanks for all the help man!

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy)))))

[@gortech3898]

Shug, just wanted to thank you for being you. Not only are you highly effective at getting your point across with tons of useful information, you make it entertaining as well. I can't begin to tell you how easy you made it for me to get into hammocking. Sure, there's still a learning curve and I had some fiddling to do but your videos made the journey a pleasant one and I just wanted to take the time to let you know how much I appreciate you and your vids. You got sectors 1-6 in this one so I guess that leaves sector 7 to all of us viewers. Cheers buddy and keep em coming.

[@shugemery]

Thanks for the good and fine words. Keep having fun.

[@KurtMcScotsman]

You're a national treasure Shug. Every time I see one of your camp videos, I just want to get out there. Have you done any videos about hiking solo, specifically? I've found it really hard to get out as often as all my camping buddies schedules don't line up anymore and I'm looking to solo camp more often. Any tips (mainly to assure your family that you won't get eaten by a bear)?

[@shugemery]

I speak to it on a video..kzbin.info/www/bejne/qV6wc4qLZauEjJY

[@KurtMcScotsman]

@@shugemery Exactly what I was looking for, thank you sir!

[@parkersalwayssmokin]

Agreed. Was looking to get motivated for a winter camping trip and this did the trick. Misery loves company I guess Lol.

[@klavsvasilis]

[@jtmarlin336]

Finally a guy that's not just trying to sell me crap or tell me if I just keep spending more money I'll make it you have real honest advice!!!!

[@shugemery]

My business acumen is not real good haaaaa. Winter looms.

[@backpackingwithahammock4006]

Very well said. Another great video. I hope the shoulder is well enough to pull the pulk this winter.

[@shugemery]

I think pulling the pulk will be no problem...thankee.

[@johnzx14rk94]

Thank You Good Sir. Your a great guy.

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy)))) I'm 87% nice. Most of the time....haaaaa

[@jerrodp9867]

All secure in sectors 1 to 6 !!!!! Who has sector 7 ?

[@shugemery]

I got it!

[@jcast25]

Supreme Commander of Sector 12, checking in. All clear.

[@greysilverback3924]

Great advice. Thanks for sharing.

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and thankee.

[@OutdoorIntrigue]

Mate you are a legend. Absolutely love your videos and credit to you. You are definitely a big part of my hammock if inspiration and you are always welcome with us on the beautiful Scottish highlands 🙌

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy and butter fudge! Thankee.

[@OutdoorIntrigue]

shugemery Excuse the typos in the original comment I had a few drams of Scotch 🥃 😊

[@whopua]

You sure are blessed. Here in Iowa I spoke with the head engineer for the DNR and was told point-blank to consider all surface water contaminated and not to harvest any. Border to border farms and industry. Have to carry all my water in. As always I love your vids!

[@shugemery]

Wow. He sees some bad stuff I guess. Filter and boil I say.

[@bst2664]

It's always a treat when Shug posts a camping video!!!

[@shugemery]

Much obliged.

[@SoutheastBackpacker]

Very helpful Shug. I’m planning to get out more this winter so soaking up all the knowledge I can.

[@shugemery]

Hey Tall Paul.......

[@JTMinnesota]

What I like most about your winter camping videos is the equal mix of actual movement (hiking, pulk-pulling, post-holing, etc), and camping (hammock stuff, mealtime and snacks, gear description, etc), and a generally fearless sense of adventure (BWCA near beaver ponds, SHT Section 13 craziness, -40° frigid insanity, etc.) You get out there when most of us stay in. And you bring us along. Thanks, Shug.

[@shugemery]

It can be a fun time but the backpacking workload increases ten-fold! But the stillness is sooo worth it.

[@appalachiantemptations9256]

thank you shug for all the great videos and music ive learned alot about hammock camping from them and it has made my life in the woods even more enjoyable and my life better thank you and god bless

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and glad to do it.

[@mikeriddle5795]

I lost everything to the Camp Fire out here in California a few weeks ago and I just realized I lost my Shug shirt and mug. I can replace my gear, but I loved that mug!

[@shugemery]

I hate to hear that you went through all that. Saw a lot of news on the devastation and hope the best for everyones recovery. Those wildfires are cruel.

[@derekjeter2387]

Hey Shug, I am a staff sergeant in the U.S Army and have been in Afghanistan for 4 months now and started watching you on KZbin and you really break the monotony here. I laugh every time i watch your videos. I just want to thank you and my Army buddies thank you. I am in the 101st airborne division out of Fort Campbell, Ky. Keep up the good videos. I also do a lot of backpacking in the states too.

[@shugemery]

You make my day Staff Sergeant. My father in law was in the 511th. I Company. I keep their sticker on my car to help keep them alive. Gotten me out of a speeding ticket before. Hope you get back to some safe backpacking. Keep you head down and drawers dry. Shug

[@derekjeter2387]

Hey Shug this is Staff sergeant Jeter, my company has been celebrating today because last night we captured 6 Taliban soldiers who have been firing off mortar rounds at our compound for the last 2 days. Woo buddy it was such a relief. I keep watching your videos and sure think that you would have been a good soldier in the Army with as much camping and hiking as you do. It drives my wife crazy when i am back in the states because i have a hard time being comfortable sleeping in a regular bed because i am so used to sleeping in Humvees or on the ground. This is my 5th deployment. Now i have a hammock to sleep in and it sure is comfortable.

[@gus1911]

Thanks, Shug!! WooBudy!

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and thankee.

[@DebCampos]

Shug, your winter videos were an inspiration for me so I went out winter camping and it got down to 5°F !!! I was very warm in my winter tent, 2 sleeping pads and two sleeping bags. Most importantly, I camped 500 ft from my car 🤗🤗🤗🤗 I can't wait for more videos 🤗🤗🤗🤗❄️❄️❄️🌨️🌨️🌨️

[@shugemery]

That is amazing! Doubling up the bags and pads is real smart and a great way to stretch gear.

[@Myn6211]

Good to see you Mr. Shug. 😃 You are handing out some excellent advice. Looking forward to part 2.

[@shugemery]

This may end up being a 37 parter! Thankee.

[@jasonmcintosh2632]

Loved the clip at the end.

[@shugemery]

Thankee. New trick for upcoming Summer shows.

[@stevejaeger3550]

3:20 Great advice right there... I venture out about 1.5 miles during the winter to a great little spot I love. I'm always close enough to the car that I can bail out if I need to. Thanks Shug for all the good advice!!

[@shugemery]

That is just far enough. Nice to be able to romp back for gear if needed as well.

[@boutthere3374]

Good advice Shug.

[@shugemery]

Always re-learning myself.

[@ashtonwitham5185]

Sector 7.4.1 reporting!!! Just completed my warbonnet gear haul (purple and ocean blue themed thunderfly, blackbird, wooki, and diamondack sewn footbox topquilt) and id love to show you in a few weeks when i get to take it all out! Thank you for the inspiration and motivation to help myself get out and connect with nature.

[@shugemery]

You got some top-notch gear there. Take time to read Warbonnet's instructions for good success....www.warbonnetoutdoors.com/hammocks-101/

[@PumpkinVillage]

Great advice especially on the feet. I bring some of the hand/ foot warmers just in case I end up needing them. We live on 21 acres in Vermont. I hang out about 300 yards from the house in the woods. Makes for easy fun overnights and some good practice. Makes me really confident when I head out for my winter trips. Love the winter camping. Wishing your and yours a happy holiday season. Take care, Al

[@shugemery]

Sounds wonderful on your own property.

[@OldPackMule]

Great tips! Can’t wait for part duex from Sector 7

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy))))

[@daleb1225]

Excellent recommendations, I particularly like the mention of plastic bags, I grew up with very little and that was a trick we always used and still do today. They just work, thank you sir.

[@shugemery]

Fond snow memories as a kid in snow in NC. White sock and breadbags on hands and feet.

[@ianandrewdonnelly6507]

Absolutely cracking video my good man. Looking forward to your number 2. No. That's not right. I mean part 2. Always a pleasure watching. Greetings from Glasgow. Ian.

[@shugemery]

This could get into several parts now that I opened the winter can-o-worms!

Whoooooooo buddy! Good to see ya!

[@shugemery]

Backatcha...good to see your typing.

[@karihemmert2437]

Thanks for the winter chats Shug! Some of your previous videos helped me get comfortable into the 20's and 30's but Im feeling like really getting out there this season!

[@shugemery]

I love hearing that! It is a beautiful time to be out there. Way less people!

[@281covfefe5]

Man thats some experience talk'n !! All warm sector 7 👍🏻👀🎄

[@shugemery]

Just back from to cold nights solo. I'm hopefully just passing on my personal experience learned the fun and sometimes hard way.

[@thetasters]

I read once that when hiking in cold weather to dress in way that you're slightly chilly when you stop. With the right fabric (synthetic or wool) and proper layering that has always worked for me. Of course a good pair of warm gloves and socks are key as well!

[@shugemery]

If I take a longer break I keep a jacket on top of pack. Gonna be cold out the next two days up there.

[@bobbyharper8710]

Excellent! A bedtime story.

[@shugemery]

Goodnight~~~

[@coonlakebackwoods]

Good stuff Shug. Great basics to keep it enjoyable! Great tips.

I will be here a while....

[@fitz308]

Great video. Informative and entertaining as well. I like all of your videos and can´t wait to see part two and your next winter trip. One thing I can highly recommend is to store your water filter at night in the near of your body. Otherwise it can freeze and this can cause irreparabel damages to the filter by what it is not working proper anymore. All the best to you and your familiy. Kind regards from Germany.

[@shugemery]

Danke. I do speak to keeping the filter from freezing in part 2....important! Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@dlbma30677]

Great video! Going to get a pair of bread bags

[@shugemery]

Wonder bread looks best.

[@craiggulley]

great tip with the motorcycle overboots

[@shugemery]

Get a bit of condensation so the synthetic bootie helps. Just don't get too active in them.

[@Incrediblemagpie]

@@shugemery I've been shopping for overboots for my booties off and on since the 1900's for early winter and spring wet hikes. I have not found a pair with nice sole. Your pair looks like the best I've seen. Link me up Shug! Sector 12, secure.

[@brianwofford3831]

Awesome advice video. Thanks, I enjoy your perspective!

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@MaffTUK]

You may not consider your good self an expert, but what makes an expert is subject matter and Knowledge of that subject, of which you have plenty Mr Shug, and of the practical type too, which of course is the best type there is, 👍

[@shugemery]

Just back from a solo two nighter in the Northwoods. It was so nice. Cold and gray. Perfect. I go, so I just try to pass on what I know from all my winter trips. Still alive~~~~

[@rudysrefuge9033]

Awesome video, sharing this one. Just did a two nighter in north central WI, avg temps hovering around 31 during the day, 28 at night, but windy. Layers and keeping dry. The one side of winter camping that's a bummer but necessary, the weight of clothes. It was about .85 miles in , in a t-shirt. Thanks for Sharing, waiting on part II!

[@shugemery]

Not a time for lightweight!

[@Swiat34]

I’ve watched a lot of your videos as I’ve slowly worked my way into hammock camping and the tips and tricks have been great. Last weekend was the coldest I’ve attempted (mid-30s and raining in TN) and your advice definitely helped. It was a successful test of the gear I presently have.

[@shugemery]

I love hearing that. Carry forth....

[@wanderingaloudwithmark3057]

Great advice thanks

[@appalachiantemptations9256]

wooooooo budddy thats some mighty fine advice there shug

[@shugemery]

At least a start for some.....

[@MobsterNine]

Great idea with the improvised mukluks!

[@shugemery]

They work pretty darn good. Get a bit on condensation inside so synthetic bootie is a bit better.

[@bwillan]

Great Stuff from the Shug. The basic principle of winter camping is staying dry. How you do that is up to you. Everyone's body is different. Best to test your winter systems in an easy to bail out location, as Shug mentions. Of course Shug is talking about cold camping. If you have the means to create a heated shelter, then you can dry out your gear and you'll have a better time of it.

[@shugemery]

On part 2 I will make it known I am talking about into below freezing or low 20s. 0º and below gets into a whole new game.

[@tenminutetokyo2643]

DOOD THAT WAS AWESOME AS ALWAYS. Nice to seel you crushing it on the merch!

[@shugemery]

I sell a few. It is candy money.

[@Dean_Cooling]

Hi Shug. Just to let you know, filters like Sawyer water filters....any filter that has the membrane filters...if they freeze it knackers them. The ice crystals expand and get sharp, which rupture and pierce the filter, which once defrosted allows bugs through. NEVER let your filter freeze. All the best Dean Wales, UK. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@shugemery]

And that is why I rarely if ever, mostly never bring them Winter camping.

[@bahamajim1998]

Splendid video sir!

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@TheEriegpman]

Great video sir, excellent points. Went hunting with my son last weekend, it got below freezing, not much more, spent the night in my hammock and he slept in his car. Lol its great to get up and feel great after a night in the hammock. Helps me keep up with him!

[@shugemery]

Whoooooooooo Buddy...too true.

[@jackgray1982]

Great video as usual

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@JoeETucker]

Always a good day when I open KZbin and find a Shug video waiting for me. I had forgotten about Russian tea. My grand mother used to make it. I thought it might be a family recipe. I hadn't heard of it since. Is that more of a Carolinas thing?

[@shugemery]

Not sure it is a NC thing but a Moravian thing I think.

[@TheSemtexCow]

Best warmer for feet I’ve found is making insoles out of a piece of silver reflective bubble wrap. Make them wider than needed, so they roll up the insides of the boots. Toasty feet equals happy body. Whoooo buddy, all the best for sector seven.

[@shugemery]

Oh yes!

[@JMGeranimo]

Another great video, hope the shoulder is going good. Light pool swimming, a bamboo bar with hanging band weights is the best thing ever for shoulder rehab. Seated dumbbell shrugs for higher rep with light weight works very well also. On the 700 lb bench list and 800lb deadlift list at Westside barbell myself, retired and wore out now lol.

[@shugemery]

Shoulder is really good. Doing my appointed PT daily and letting it heal right. Thank you.

[@Jeff-jg7jh]

Thanks to all of you. I loved that part. I have a buddy who is kind of "professional" and he refers to himself in the, what is it, third person? It kind of makes me chuckle.

[@shugemery]

Shug of the Third and Fourth Person thank ya'!

[@hmarkison]

After winter on the AT (down to the teens) I'm a big fan of waterproof breathable socks. I wore trail runners that were almost always wet and/or frozen, but merino liners and heavy merino hiking socks inside the waterproof socks kept my feet warm and dry. Taking a section of foam to stand on is a great idea. At the end of the day the shoes went into a giant baggie which went into the foot box of my quilt. Never had to try to put my feet into frozen shoes. Your vids gave me some great pointers before I went out. Thank you muchly!

[@shugemery]

The feet are tricky. I've hiked in wet and under water in cold but with wool socks feet were OK as long as I was moving.

[@uptrail7169]

Very Good Shug! It's getting a little chilly up in Yooper Land. About 2 years ago my boots got a little wet and froze inside for the hike out. I emptied out two zip lock bags since that was all I had and they worked good. Now for winter I'll just keep two extra ones in my pack if needed.

[@shugemery]

I hear ya'. Had my Keen boots freeze many a time from sweat. Tricky!

[@terrysmith1175]

A friend and I just dig our first sub 10 degree (with wind chill) hammock camp last week in the LG. It was in the 20's with 20 plus winds. One thing I did discover is how fast higher wind can strip heat from my under quilt. I need to grab one of the hammock protectors I reckon to help out on that front. Other than that it was a fun experience. Thanks for all the hammock tips through the years it has helped with my transition from ground dwelling.

[@shugemery]

That wind sure can. A good UQP has some good value on those windy trips. I ache for the Gorge.

[@funonvancouverisland]

Right on brother. Another helpful vid! I love the booties! Cheers!

[@shugemery]

They do pretty well in damp snow. Get a bit of condensation so the synthetic bootie helps. Just don't get too active in them.

[@NTurman]

[@jg320743]

Very informative shug, I'm new to hammock camping, still working on getting all my gear together, only have a bear butt hammock right now.

[@shugemery]

Get a good pad or underquilt and enjoy!

[@lovingmylifeasIage6741]

I've camped in my hammock in the back yard before in 19 degrees fahrenheit before. Stayed warm and was surprised how cold it got the next morning. I had 2 down under quilts and a down sleeping bag for a top quilt with a tarp.

[@shugemery]

Yessir...sometimes you have to double things up to sleep warm out there. Long nights.

[@eodnavigator]

Thanks for yet another great video, Shug! Quick question: Do packs of howling coyotes ever cause you anxiety when you’re camping alone? Thanks again - hope the PT for the shoulder is going well!

[@shugemery]

I don't worry about the yipping coyotes or howling wolves too much. Not much I can do at that point but lay and listen to them.

[@kc8ppo]

Hearing the coyotes is one of the joys of camping for me

[@SomewhereOutside]

I'm also a sweaty guy, merino wool baselayers are an absolute must for me! You make a lot of great points in this video that'll definitely help a lot of people stay safe while winter camping. Water is definitely a chore. Hoping to get some snow in Ohio this year to enjoy using the pulk more. Great video Shug!

[@shugemery]

Pulk onward. Have to watch my pace and walk real slow not to sweat pulking.

[@SomewhereOutside]

@@shugemery I hike at a pretty quick pace so I need to better discipline myself to take it easy so I don't break too much of a sweat in the winter.

[@Shamrockjason]

I bring a small flask of my favorite wiskey out with me. Helps in all conditions

[@shugemery]

I'm not a drinker so cocoa for me. Helps in most conditions.
