THE TENT. Winter Trip 2016.

Another trip to the tent crossing the ice. Campfire cooking, snow shoes, a look at the Backwoods Cabin.

[@kimberlyrav]

This is the vid I wait for every year! I love when you go in the winter.

I love when the only sounds you can hear are the ones that you make.

[@lebon2002be]

Perfect ! Lovely. :-) You're very organized. Cheers, Roger.

[@Maritimer]

Beauty sunrise on the last day, thanks for taking us along Joe !

[@SoMeaFit]

I can imagine the absolutely brilliant sound of silence in a landscape like this.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

All you hear is your ears ringing. Its as close to total silence I ever hear. Its amazing. Thank you. Joe

[@guysmiley4143]

Thanks for bringing me along joe, i miss walking in the woods in the winter so much quieter and peacefull . Thanks again for taking the time and effort in making the video keep up the great work hope you had fun in LA

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+Guy smiley Thank you for the nice comment Guy. Joe

[@benslooking4coolstuff]

Gosh, I Love this concept of deep winter camping, I enjoy the vids! Why would anyone give you thumbs down? That makes me mad. Great vid!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thank you for the nice comment Ben. I cant wait to get back up there both now and next winter. Thanks again. Joe

[@bighurts1]

I don't know why I enjoy watching you do mundane things like put wood in a stove or shovel snow, but I just do.

[@williamaichinger2358]

I feel the same way all of joe and zach every thing is always very entertaining and never gets old I think we have all got to love them I know I sure do!!

[@lisalee2885]

Makes me feel like we should Appreciate everything WE do 😄

[@d.redrobinphillips9959]

Wow, thank you. That was wonderful. Your meals looked delicious. Lots of protein. You are so laid back and thought everything out. Nice to meet you. I will visit again. Have a good one.

[@yukonjack8103]

What a cool video! Looks like lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.

[@katokhaelan4881]

I could watch you cook stuff at the tent all day. your cooking videos in general are my favorites

[@mykahlifischer5267]

Out of all the videos I've seen on KZbin, Ive never loved a video more like this. Thank you, Joe!!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

Thank you for the nice comment Michael.

[@J297WFD]

It really is a beautiful area up there. I always love the tent videos. Thanks!

[@Bagarwoodturning]

Great video. Reminds me so much of Northern Wisconsin. Just simple pleasures of life, eh!

[@tddstl3166]

Re-watching this again for probably the 5th time. The shot of the fire with the backdrop of the Tent, woods, and sky at 7:03-7:06 is so perfect it almost looks fake. Look at the color of the sky! Postcard quality for sure. Amazing footage Joe!

[@jbrown9916]

Great video! I really enjoyed it. Living in Florida really makes me miss the winters .

[@nicoleemorgan3983]

[@56mastercarol]

I absolutely love your videos. My bucket list is to stay in a cabin for an extended time. Living vicariously through your videos!😀

[@divisioneight]

Oh brother, did I enjoy just watching this little weekend adventure of yours. The food looked yummy too!

[@JewlofTheNile914]

U sure make a good home life for yourself,and u r so organised.love your tent,.,I admire you ,nice video of your home away from home dude, I love it,God bless u.

[@thefishingkings123]

Great video as always! Ur videos always make me hungry because the food you make looks so good

[@AustralianShootingChannel]

+thefishingkings123 Agreed! Cheers, ASC.

[@LatinSoul007]

Awesome cabins, they offer just over the top, to offer comfort. But, still have the beauty of the outdoors and nature in all its beauty. Thanks for sharing.

[@NepentheBlue]

The outhouse (at the cabin) is the prettiest I've ever seen. Everything about this video makes me feel cozy and long for winter to return. Loved it.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+NepentheBlue Thank you for the nice comment. The snow is almost gone up there now and by the end of this week it should all be gone. I am looking forward to driving up in a couple weeks and next winter will arrive all too soon and I will be back up there then as well. Thanks again. Joe

[@FinsRacksOutdoors]

Nice video, great channel , just an idea Joe..For your convenience when you go there in the winter you should build yourself a collapsible rack to set up near your woodstove to raise up and heat your solid water back to liquid a little quicker. Thanks for sharing

[@BananaAlert]

Good movie making..! You put much effort into editing, scene transitions, having steady shots, etc. Congratulations! So many clips on Y.T. are junk, and people are clueless about making videos. Yours is refreshing. Much success to You, and my respects..!

[@dakotaescher1]

I wish I could express how I could live there forever and be happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Looks luxurious! Glad you are having fun out there. Take care.

[@mysund]

16:09 A woodstove on the crapper. That's brilliant thing.

[@justsocool9325]

Now that's party time!

[@cosc137]

[@metalwing750]

My fav channel has once again produced a great vid...awesome stuff

[@tangowarrior5405]

what an awesome place to get away for a few days and relax. Thanks for sharing.

[@stephenlees9752]

Great stuff mate, what a great view of the whole area in winter, you are dealing with really cold temps & I am dealing with hot humide conditions here in Darwin. Another great video mate, keep them coming.

[@franciscorojas934]

The difference between us readers and Joe The Tent Owner..he has the power to have only one of those delicious pork steaks and keep the other for tomorrow..I would have the two with no hesitation under those conditions...that to me tell me all about this man...discipline..and that is why he's got it all.. good for him...

[@whogavehimafork]

This is my dream. I would kill to be able to do this.

[@keltingr2612]

just do it then

[@HansumRob100]

whogavehimafork dont killl... just go do it....

[@whogavehimafork]

HansumRob100 I'm a college student so I don't exactly have a whole lot of money. But! Perhaps in the near future I'll have that luxury!

[@garybarnes3978]

Correct it looks like Joe has money, you have to have it to do this like he does. I think his dad as money as well.

[@archiballarchi3922]

it is beautiful but its tough and can be deadly if ya not carful and aware at all times(":

[@DezyreHD]

i could literally watch these episodes all day. im envious of your cabin sir

[@saltwaterlou]

I love the scenery Joe, am quite envious that you get to experience the seasons there. That could never get old. You are truly blessed. Greetings from Texas,,, Luis

[@wasiek1982]

thats wird, nothing is happening but its so interesting to watch .

[@thomasn8566]

Well I'm just jealous you have a place like that, lol. Nice vid!

[@backcountrypipe]

Just a fantastic winter tent video Joe. Thanks for sharing, you could feel the solitude in this video and there is something about quiet times in the winter woods that appeals to me. Great stuff thanks for sharing. Safe travels to Louisiana Regards Mark

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+backcountrypipe Thanks Mark. It is so quiet up there that all you hear is your ears ringing in the winter when there is no wind. I enjoy it. Joe

[@Zoltoks]

Watched the entire video which is rare for me for winter videos. Something was special about this video. Thank you for uploading!

[@GPgundude]

AWESOME video ! Thanks for Sharing !!!

[@willieabraham4882]

keep the light fluid away from the stove that is a beautiful cabinet to have I love it I would love to have something like that one day it's such a beautiful and peaceful looking place the Blessed place to have but keep the light fluid away from the stove

[@princeofxane]

beautiful video. I watched it during the break time at work. I zoned out for some time. really amazing.

[@Mike-zc4qe]

Joe, watching you at the tent is like an escape for me as well from western NY. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work! Mike

[@ashlogcreek]

It doesn't matter what you cook outside. It always tastes better BECAUSE it was cooked outside. :)

[@marcianoruy1689]

I'm Brazilian but I really wanted to spend a few days in a place like this. But I think it will never be possible, what a pity.

[@richgran]

Love it, all except your shoes and no gators ;) Awesome camp/cabin set up, great edit on your video - it really told a story.

[@jbolf6]

Love the solitude of your cabin, it is beautiful!

[@danielmvezo]

I need to live like this. Teach me the ways. I'm done with city living Get me a job i'll move tomorrow !

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

I could not handle the city life, I would be an anxiety ridden doctors patient. Lol. Thank you. Joe

[@TheTManShow]

Lumber Jack he has electricity Dee Dee dee

[@CR-vn3gp]

I really enjoyed your video. Where is this at? How far was the walk in? Thanks for the post. Loved it.

[@mkaymkay8178]

Wow I absolutely love this. I want to find and purchase some land and have a nice winter cabin like this one day. There is something about being away from civilization that is satisfying and refreshing. Thanks for the video.

[@charlesdavidson4815]

Been there, done that, loved it. Went up to my a-frame last holiday season. Southern Vermont. 9" of snow fell over 2 weeks. Hiking to all the familiar spots, show shoes. Splitting wood. Seeing old friends. Best vacation in along time.

[@asaelfajardo2571]

the outhouse is actually nicer than the cabin.. lol

[@backpackinghikinguk1712]

Dead envious, Manchester UK.

[@stephenf.499]

hope i have the chance to have a setup like this someday. at 30 years old... i don't know how, but i'm happy you did. thanks! for sharing with us all . happy trails :)

[@randycovington7642]

Wonderful enjoyed this very much. Thanks for the view of the great white North.

[@daymal2717]

Nice video, very entertaining! =)

[@mikemcnamee6030]

At first when I saw the stock of lighter fluid bottles I was like "damn this guy is afraid of coming up and not being able to light a fire". Then I saw you just needed that much hosing everything down with about 8 gallons lol

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

LOl. no reason to dick around right? Its 2.50 a bottle so I dont try to conserve it. Lol. Thanks Rusty. Joe

[@andyr8625]

Get a chimney charcoal lighter,Save the lighter fluid plus your food will taste better..

[@shawni321]

@@andyr8625 Joe does it the way he wants. Now leave him be, friend, or he will say the bad word...

[@jrfishingandhunting7858]

This might be my favourite so far! It would be great to see this camp again before the end of the winter!

[@fixman88]

I've never seen a 'tent' like that before, it's an interesting hybrid structure. It looks really inviting and whoever built those cabins did an amazing job with the architecture!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+David Knight (fixman88) You can watch the whole cabin building as well as the tent being constructed all on this channel. we did it all ourselves. Thank you. Joe

[@user-gp6yz4dc1e]

I like him~

[@sneak6654]

Don't your feet get cold & wet wearing sneakers instead of boots?

[@1HeavyHitr]

+Sneak 66 Chuck Norris's? Yes. Joe's? NEVER.

[@gman77gas]

+Sneak 66 That's what came to my mind!

[@josephfudala316]

Yea I definitely would be wearing boots in those conditions

[@lisefernandez4167]

Korean old people living along

[@stevenjefferies1670]

Sneak 66 That's so funny! That is exactly what I was thinking! I live in Northern Wisconsin and it gets cold! We live in our boots!! 6 month's out of the year we don't even wear tennis shoes!

[@zpwagler1826]

Man joe, it looks so beautiful up there, we've got 7 inches of snow here in Tennessee which is a ton considering it was 55 degrees last week. Great vid and can't wait to see some ice fishing!

[@josephpowell9179]

It *IS* amazing how you feel like you're there. What a refreshing contribution..enjoying it immensely.

[@nr3rful]

where is your electricity coming from?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

The first 7 years I ran a generator and then 3 years ago I dug in power. Thank you. Joe

[@bustout321]

This dude has enough lighter fluid for years. WTF?

[@williamaichinger2358]

but be careful about his lighter fluid and his pork steak fetish I don't want to get kicked off his channel nor does anyone else he also has a thing with chuck roasts i'm sure Dr. Phil would have a field day with Joe on national TV.

[@LFH02]

All looked great again, see how relaxed you are when out there, thanks for sharing.

[@VicsYard]

Cool video man. That a really nice set up man. Thanks for sharing. Liked and subscribed.

Great video! BUT Your one of those hollow leg people aren't you? If I ate like you I'd weight 700 Lbs.! LOL

[@williamkovach7674]

[@kenmartin1211]

Why do you call it a Tent? It isn't a Tent in any sense of the word...?

[@TC-zi2yp]

If you take a tent, and build an insulated "box" inside, is it not still a tent?

[@kenmartin1211]

Matt D Is that to maintain some type of building code which states it must be a tent? Its a beautiful place I was just wondering why it was called a tent... Thanks

[@TC-zi2yp]

I honestly couldn't tell you for sure, it very well could be. But I think its more to keep it as a "permanent structure rather than having the snow and elements beating on the bare kanvas.

[@SophakOm]

In his older video. It started out as a tent.

[@kenmartin1211]

Sophak Om Yes...It started as a tent... It is not a tent now by all all my building skills which go back 25 years...

[@abdullahlatifi7633]

This the life I want to live. I very much enjoyed watching it.

[@JoyceFortaleza]

nossa uma aventura congelante!

[@jongmans38]

Why do you call it a tent when it is a building?

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+jongmans38 Because its a tent. Here is the video of when I put it up. I have done alot to it but at the end of the day its The Tent. Thank you. Joe kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3iyhJKOh9B6jNE

[@jongmans38]

Yes, watched the video, but your "Tent" has a solid tiled roof and solid walls. Is it a loop hole in terms to be able to build where it is?

[@huckleberrychris]

lighter fluid? Really...city boy. hahahaha

[@shawni321]

Chuck, you are gonna make Joe say the bad thing...

[@daltonvickers7977]

Beautiful scenery, Lots of snow. The moon has been fantastic the last couple nights. Thanks for the video

[@JnJTrueOutdoorAdventures]

Joe, I am hooked on watching your channel now for sure!!! All the trips to the tent and the cabin, the hunting, fishing, etc. I am also going thru your channel on the dehydrated stuff. Found your experiment with the dehydrated potatoes. Thanks so much for sharing your trips and your ideas. Great channel by the way if I haven't said it before. Sure wish we had a tent camp site, but our campers and the old bus serves us well. Keep up the good videos.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+J & J True Outdoor Adventures Thank you. It doesnt really matter what it is as long as you make it your home away from home. I actually think of the tent more like home than anything since during the divorce we sold "home" but I still had the tent property. I also tend to think of Melissas place in Louisiana as home as well. Funny how thoughts change as time goes on. I should have more dehydrating videos somewhere in the long list of videos. I should get them in a playlist. Thanks again. Joe

[@Danzchannel1]

Love all the Tent journals, and all the rest. You and Zach have an awesome channel Joe! Your like the modern day Dick Proenneke! Love it!!! ~Dan

[@jhend8038]

Joe I enjoy all your videos! I have a camp in northern Ontario and practice many of your bushcraft and cooking ideas..thank you

[@tahliaapplefield2984]

utterly mesmerised by this video - really loved watching every bit of it

[@jerrylee7666]

Man.... This is the first time I've watched one of your video's.. I have to say, I love it. Great filming and commentary. Absolutely AMAZING place! I would give anything to be able to go there for a week! Now I have winter camping fever and I'm starving!! Good stuff man!

[@cast390]

That dresser,and that outhouse with the half moon on the door remind me of the Flinstones

[@johnshipley6653]

Love the tent videos.. So peace full.

This is truly living the dream! I hope to have a place like this to go one day!

[@komatos42]

Lovely place, well organized. Would not mind living there for ever

[@brendamatthews9456]

I'm glad we never have to shovel snow. I do wish we would get some snow but not that much! The snow is beautiful, the food looks 😋 delicious and I have enjoyed watching this video!

[@stephenlees9752]

Wow man, must have missed this one!! the snow looks pretty deep around the tent. Hey i must say you did a hell of a job rubbing them sticks together to get that fire going.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+Stephen Lees Lol. I only rub sticks when the camera is going, then I pause and put lighter fluid on it and use my lighter. Haha. Thanks Stephen. Joe

[@josephdube7968]

i'v been a fan for a year and love all your videos thank you for sharing your ups and downs with us !! p.s everything looks awesome even the stove!

[@SgtMooseHead]

Really enjoy these tent and cabin vids- thanks for doing these

[@bryanr.3241]

Love this video and those cabins are awesome. That was a great out house too !! Just subbed

[@funkyprepper]

love these videos of the tent joe. the road conditions were interesting, starting the journey with wide gritted roads, gradually getting narrower with more snow on them. little tip - when you leave the tent, have the log burner ready made, just add a match when you return. would wrapping the water bottles in the sleeping bags stop them freezing? also what fuel did you use to get the fires going? that backwoods cabin looked amazing, would be nice if it was let for vacations. gotta get me one of those lanterns too. in all i loved it joe - brilliant video, it was like i was right there with you. take care buddy

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+funkyprepper Thanks Darren. I will do a video on lighter fluid just for all of you across the pond. LOL. Nice hearing from you. Thanks again. Joe

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

+funkyprepper lol, might have known i would find you here as well, lol. Cheers Moose.

[@LeeShand]

I cant stop watching this one. Amazing place you have there sir.

[@1HeavyHitr]

What an absolute paradise! Does anyone else smile when the lighter fluid comes out? lol...love it.

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+1HeavyHitr I love my lighter fluid. LOL. Thank you. Joe

[@MsPrincesspaulina]

+JoeandZachSurvival I'm surprised you don't use a chimney style charcoal briquette fire starter for your grill. Put some newspaper on the bottom, charcoal on top, light the paper and you've got a fire faster than with fluid.

[@BartGmusic]

Great video! Really enjoyed it. Very nice setup!

[@cagemonkey22]

I discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago and my daughter in particular loves watching your videos. While shopping the other day she wanted me to pick out pork steak, red potatoes, and a canned vegetable. She wants to cook it this weekend and she said "it has to be on an open fire like in the video".

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

That is SOOOOO awesome. You need to tell her I think she will do well. Let me know how it turns out. You cant beat an open fire cooked pork steak and the potatoes have to be red ones. Delicious. Thank you. Joe

[@karenchakey]

Awesome Joe! Your vids always make me hungry! i bet you don't have to much vandalism because no one would want to go to all that work to get there! Take Care!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+Bushcraft Girl Karen Its very secluded and I have never had an issue in the 9 years I have had the tent there and the 33 years the folks have had cabins up there they have never had a break in. That said our wonderfully corrupt government had a deal going where they would dig in high speed internet up there so people in remote areas would not be left out... ugh..... Well who am I to say no. LOL. The dig in is free and if I did not have that deal and had to pay to have it run in the lady said it would be just under 100,000 dollars because of how long of a dig that would be... Yep, we have Veterans on the street but... well Im not going there lol. I now have a high speed internet box bolted to the side of the tent. They did not get it dug in this year, I guess things took longer than expected and it will be next year (the internet there will be over 10 times faster than what I can get here at the house less than 20 miles from Minneapolis) but when I get the new cabin built I will put in a security system with cameras and have it sent to my phone and email so I will know whos coming off the lake or up the driveway or on the cabin porch before they even get to the door.

[@liboriopsych]

+JoeandZachSurvival Hmmm... Why would the gov't spend $100k to put HS internet in such a secluded area, when people in cities are still on dial-up? And as you said, vets are living in alleys, homeless. Blows my mind... +Blessings

[@MrDpms2010]

+liboriopsych they would do it just to see exactly what the hell is going on in remote locations like joe has

[@ReetaRC]

Great video! Thanks for taking us along!

[@JoeandZachSurvival]

+kartof1 Thank you. I love it at The Tent and about a month from now I will be back up there. I hope you stick around and watch. Thanks again. Joe
