The TRUTH about WINTER CAMPING in Canada - Part 1

[@nicolekopera2826]

Let’s be clear that we were CAR camping.

[@ChennysaFerrynrera]

Ice upon the branches...snow upon the ground...wind among the evergreens...so cold the distant sounds.. Flakes of snow fall heavy...as day time turns to night...forest life protected...in a cloak of silver white...💖

[@burntfingers2241]

I watch your videos from Scotland,absolutely brilliant thank you keep them coming 😃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ecochiq.]

Ah some good old fashioned Polish fare there. Pierogi, kielbasa, lots of butter 😋 All that was missing were potatoes and some sauerkraut 😀 Love it.

[@nealmacdonald9896]

Some hi end butane stoves have a heat strip that keeps the can warm while you cook. Keep the butane cans somewhere warm for when you need to use them in below zero temps.

[@EMTevjorgensen]

Starting a fire in the snow is not cheating by using a fire log... It's smart!!

[@Slevin_Kalevra]

Honestly, its never cheating if you are using something to start a fire. You relly dont need to know how to rub to sticks together but it is encouraged.

[@GarethJamesPoker]

Really love the format with the trip footage and then you guys chatting about it at home! ❤️

[@DownieLive]

Oh good. Yeah we wanted to try it to fill in some of the gaps and talk about how we felt. Glad you liked it Gareth. Thanks for the feedback.

[@GarethJamesPoker]

@@DownieLive no worries. It works really well!

[@Live2dayWanderland]

Great video, we are quickly becoming addicted to Winter camping!!! So much more peaceful

[@brassy49er37]

We loved winter camping! In BC. Only months we didn’t camp were Jan and Feb. We had more gear of course, fully prepared for a 4 day camp. I loved searching for all the animal tracks. Freaked out a bit when we found cougar once!

[@malakwaqasawan4371]

I got the pancake because its my birthday,... Ohhh Fu** . . . her face tell how sorry she felt for forgetting

[@christopheroliver739]

Hobo dinner! So cool, Michael & Nicole! I prepare a Crock-Pot version of Pierogis and Kielbasa. So tasty! Oh yeah.....Happy Birthday, Michael!

[@EMTevjorgensen]

Seems like as an adult I'm always setting up camp in the dark. Always wear a headlamp, rocking' the LED strip headlamp now. Back in the good ole days when I was a Young Scout we always set up in the light, then as I got older and the trips and backpacking distances got longer it's always in the dark when we get to camp to set up. You learn to be good at it and it's no big deal when you're always going to do it.

No video this morning, soooo, I found this one. Being that “alone” gives me anxiety lol. Love camping though.

[@DownieLive]

Yes! I’m working on the video and will hopefully get it to you shortly.

[@greenmileofcurry]

Hey man, you should consider doing a video on that JDM Pajero of yours. It's not everyday you'll see a right hand drive vehicle in Canada, so I think people may find that interesting (how you bought it, the goods/bads, etc)

[@DownieLive]

I've been thinking of that for a while. Thanks.

[@Slevin_Kalevra]

I would have bought new boots No way im tacking on an additional 1.5 Hours to a 9.5 hour trip. There has to be a walmart at some point lol.

[@rhondahedrick2090]

Boy she's a real "I told you so" type of person. I feel for you man, you better think long and hard befor you tie yourself to her for a lifetime buddy.

[@faasanradio]

Thoroughly enjoyable bit!

[@DownieLive]

Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it! Part 2 comes out this Saturday. Stay tuned!

[@davidlp6510]

OK, camping during the winters in Canada one must ask first "what happened?" that is because no one in the right mind would go camping in polar temps. Well if you want to meet some romantic polar bear that could be the key. Once in Montreal at 3 AM I needed to pee really bad and I was by a park near McGill. It was a really bad idea to pee on tree at that time of the night and with temps hovering at negative 18C. The smoke alone gave me away. Your car has the steering wheel on the right side?????? That alone should be a video. I have skied since I was 3 years old but cross country is way too much work to be fun. I hope you will have some downhill skiing among your vlogs. Another cool video!!!

[@jehovanygarcia3115]

I love your videos

[@johncoombs9718]

Seems fun I've never been camping

[@DownieLive]

You should try it sometime.

[@themavericks8475]

I agree camping is really fun

[@freshprinceofvancity]

Theory: “When you sweat you die”. So when mike got up in the morning he was dead. This is why Nicole forgot his bday. He was dead to her. This video is about Nicole surviving with a zombie.

[@DownieLive]

😆🤣👌🏼 spot on! 😄💀

[@themavericks8475]

How cold were you you must have been very cold where in AZ it’s 70 to 80 degrees

[@DownieLive]
