Warm Feet when Camping Out in Winter

[@loborob5853]

You sir are a nut. Don't know what we would do without you. Always learn something and you never fail to make me smile.

[@shugemery]

Mucho appreciato.

[@karihemmert2437]

It just occurred to me that I never thanked you for this video! I froze on a backpacking trip in moderately warm weather in march of last year. Came home, found this video, then went back out to the same trail a few weeks later on a cold, cold, wet weekend and THRIVED! I was also able to borrow a superfly and winter hammock sock from the guy I was dating at the time and that certainly helped!

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and good story.

[@turo3066]

You my friend, have quickly become one of my favorite YTubers. Not only are you highly informative but also entertaining. I always believe that you are never too old or knowledable to learn new things. Even at 55 y.o. I have learned much from your videos. Keep up the great content!

[@shugemery]

always learning....as I did tend to not apply myself as a youth~~!

[@boxingcompass]

I love the jacket-around-the-foot-of-the-hammock idea! Definitely going to try that.

[@JohnSmith-vb6jx]

Yep, I just shook my head when I saw that. I was out a couple weeks ago and the temps dropped into the teens unexpectedly and i did throw my coat over the foot end of the hammock, which worked good enough, but I did not think about zipping it around. Love getting those little tips. This whole episode was good. I am going to go price some of that footwear right now. Glad I watched this. I just wish Shug would improvise more and add some spontaneity instead of always being so subdued...😂

[@adventurouseater]

You are always a giggle to watch AND very informative at the same time!!!!! Keep sharing your joy and knowledge!!!!!

[@sarar1106]

plz dont stop making videos, you make a lot of people smile. Thank you for making my day a lil better! ☺

[@shugemery]

"Everytime I think I'm out...they pull me back in" Thankee.

[@ZZoutdoors]

Lots'a great info.This is my first winter in a hammock and you have been a world of help Sir.Thanks. ZZ.

[@shugemery]

I am bowing here.

[@kerrybakes]

Most amazing and useful video ever! My feet are so cold that my adventuring friends buy me things to help keep feet warm when I'm camping! Totally gonna try the sitting pad tip!

[@shugemery]

Yes, the sitting pad trick truly helps. Carry forth.

[@karihemmert862]

For the first time I didnt freeze while on a winter camping trip (and I got my leave no trace trainer certification to boot!) As a cold sleeper with a tiny body and poor circulation I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate this video. Keep up the good work!

[@shugemery]

Great to hear and good to be warm yeah!

[@kristynlohoff5320]

Your daughter is a talented knitter! I've been enjoying spotting her projects in your videos!

[@shugemery]

She is a knitting fool! Here are some of her sweaters...flic.kr/p/PVi7yC

[@bluejeans8001]

True believer of resting feet on foam sleeping pad while in camp. Last sled dog trip through BWCA it was minus 30 and it was amazing how warm my feet on the pad vs without were while sitting around camp fire. . Great cold weather tips thanks a bunch!!!

[@shugemery]

Insulation power!

[@lilcwa]

Great video, as usual, a veritable encyclopedia of ideas for warming your lower extremities, applicable in a range of cold temperatures. Thanks for the wonderful information. We are currently experiencing our coldest and driest part of the winter here in the Pacific Northwest, so this video is both timely and inspiring. I may have to go hang this weekend and try some of these tips out! Respect and regards, Chris AKA kitsapcowboy

[@shugemery]

Needed to be done.

[@moxtr]

Those are beautiful socks/slippers your daughter made. She has mad skills. I love Icelandic wool and the look.

[@ddskimmer]

Awesome tips...you are right, no one ever brought up the cold feet issue. I would sleep with my winter boots inside my sleeping bag, and that's not good. Thanks man.

[@shugemery]

Yessir. Thankee.

[@johnzx14rk94]

What a GREAT guy. Going camping next month in the California Redwoods. Can be hot during the day but the temperature drops into the high 30's at night. Got cold last year but this year I think I got the right stuff Thanks to You. Thanks.

[@nickkanakis3469]

I use my boot liners as a cozy of sorts on the hot water bottle. Helps dry out the boot liners and still works for keeping me warm and the real cold nights.

[@shugemery]

Good one.

[@kevink2207]

Great video. Learned a couple new tricks. Plus the comedy made it all the more enjoyable.

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy))))

[@chuckreetz2953]

Great advice Shug! First winter with my Steger Muk Luks and my feet are soooo happy!! I even where them for ice fishing here in WI. Your daughter knits very well, Im patiently waiting for my 9 yo daughter to finish knitting mine! I showed her your socks and she was on it!

[@shugemery]

Oh yes....feet thank you. Love those knitting daughters.

[@kazroth886]

Just getting set to start hammock camping with my 6 yr old son. Thx for the fun and informative vids. Whoo buddy! from Vancouver bc

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome and Carry forth.

[@OrangeCrusader]

Giving the hot water bottle a good shake after you fill it and venting the created pressure before tucking it into your bag significantly reduces the chance of any leaking, especially on some off-brand bottles. Thanks Shug, great as always.

[@shugemery]

Truth to that.

[@pedroclaro7822]

You know you've found a wholesome channel when all the comments are positive

[@shugemery]

Thank you. Mostly so on the comments.

[@80sluva92]

This guy has some kewl accents, funny voices, and a great storytelling personality.. Great info vid.

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy)))))

[@michaelmeadows5142]

great advice Shug! I've always used the hot water bottles in winter. Loose wool socks always a winner along with my "booties" from REI always kept my feet really warm. Always educational and appreciated video! keep the videos coming!

[@shugemery]

warm feet warm heart

[@johnnymartensson4017]

Most say every time i watch a new video from you i always get happy and right now in middle of sweden i have just voll socks thats enought for me.

[@johnnymartensson4017]

and salamon boots

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy! and tack.

[@ChangeHumanity]

Man I'm so happy I stumbled across this channel! Great content, very informative and a great sense of humour. Keep it up the great work!

[@shugemery]

I thankee and a deep bow here.

[@ola_bandola]

How do you not have more subscribers!? Down to earth, funny and solid advice, clearly sprung from equally solid experience. As a recent hammock camper (two trips so far) i feel i no longer need to look for other channels for advice. Your winter advice will be very useful over here in Sweden 🇸🇪 Liked and subscribed

[@shugemery]

Tack. Backpacking and hammocks only get so many subscribers. Plus, I never ask anyone to subscribe. Not a fan of that. Enjoy the hammock quest.

[@DraGunnTiss]

You humor and knowledge just made me a subscriber! You, sir, are a Hoot!! I have insomnia tonight (as most nights) so will be watching more!

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@jofuji8255]

I'm not a hammock camper but even so these are brilliant ideas - thanks Shug! :)

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@garretmkiii]

That was entirely entertaining and informative. Thanks guy.

[@shugemery]

Thankee.

[@ZiggZagg11]

I can't believe you went walking in the snow bare feet just for us...

[@shugemery]

So cold it was hot.

[@Monty439]

Shows Shug loves us! Sniff. Sniff. I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about it.

[@rossr8776]

In Scotland we get so drunk that we dont care about cold feet..🍺😛

[@shugemery]

That cracked me up!

[@atommachine]

The jumping jacks and then breath hot air in my down boots works for me because the down holds the warmth for long enough to calibrate my feet warmth. A maple leaf on the end of my nose helps with frost protection! Great tips Shug

[@shugemery]

I like a hickory leaf too.

[@aguycalledshane]

This might be your best video ever, and that's saying something.

[@shugemery]

I concur.

[@louisehiker9246]

Another wonderful video. Love all those tips! I have one for your fans, if that is OK. I use hand and toe warmers a lot. Sometimes I only need them for about an hour or so until I have been moving for sometime. I find if you put them in a Ziploc bag, you can pause the chemical reaction because there's no longer any more air in there. You can then take them out of the Ziploc bag to restart the reaction. I can get a few days of use out of these handwarmers using this system.

[@shugemery]

Great technique!

[@Guy-ky9mc]

Shug- You the man, you know man? A while back I took a kayak trip down river during a nor'easter for a couple of nights. I took my normal hiking gear, hammock, snug pack, down sleeping pod (wraps around bottom and top of hammock like a cacoon), etc. I was well prepared although it snowed and it was 30-40 knot wind. I do well in very cold weather but yes.. my feet often are cold even if I dry my feet and change to wool socks 🧦 before crawling in. I even had my footbox wrapped up in an insulated rain jacket and wrapped my feet in some pants I had. I spent hours rubbing my feet together and wiggling my toes to finally get them warm.. but it took some work. I'm a warm bodied fellow but I'll be daged on if my feet aren't a problem. I think the body robs the extremities during harsh conditions.

[@shugemery]

Feet are usually the first to suffer it seems. Once in a while it happens.

[@BryanSarauer]

That toque with the tassels is awesome.

[@shugemery]

It was a gift from a Maple King fan.

[@nathansharp3193]

I finally got myself a fairly nice lightweight down jacket and this makes a HUGE difference! The Z-seat in the footbox helped me tremendously, but this just seals the deal!! Happy New Year Shug! 🥳🎉

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy))))

[@fredbiscuit...413]

I'm an 'outdoorsy' person and I came across this video by accident. Great video thank you. Very useful tips I had not thought of! And Oh - I have now subscribed lol.

[@craigslaunwhite579]

love the great Ideas. especially the water bottle put in a sock your daughter made you. I actually improved a old plastic with glass insert thermos by putting a sock in it, between the two layers. it works much more efficiently now.

[@shugemery]

Whoooooo Buddy))))

[@cabinman]

Great lesson to cover...a much needed topic with sooooo many cold tootsies out there. My wife needs some of those socks for in the house!

[@shugemery]

Hope it helps.

[@Sebastopolmark]

VERY VERY well said Shug. Thanks for taking time to make such a detailed video. If everybody gives your "suggestions" they will toasty toes, and thar ain't nuttin better than toasty toes!!!

[@shugemery]

Toast the toes.

[@nvue9887]

I use to live in MN loved the boundary waters. Love your setup too! Awesome tips! Awesome personality!

[@shugemery]

I love the quiet of the BWCA. Thankee

[@6bluestrings]

I'm feelin' the love! Thanky brother. NC weather was Whack this week, so I drove to LexBBQ to celebrate the extremes !

[@shugemery]

Ahhhman. Way to go! BBQ envy here.

[@kgilliagorilla2761]

Mr. Shug, You hit the nail on the head. {again} . Muckalucks are great. My old Sorels were great, but heavy. Steger mades the real deal. Again,the detail about to much sox in your boot is right on. Too tight, no air, no insulation. Wool insoles rock. I wear Smartwool hiking socks to walk. Merino at nite with down booties. I bring a fresh pair of Smartwool for next day. Sox are light, if I need more I pack more. Cold feet suck. Thanks for all the great videos and knowledge. KGT in Chicago

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy)))))

[@KurtPapke]

Great topic Shug! This question comes up all the time, and I think you've provided the complete answer.

[@shugemery]

Does come up so much. Especially here in MN.

[@treedirt10000]

When I was a wee lad my great grandmother would knit us wool socks like the ones your daughter knit's and come to think of it they were awesome while sleeping in the winter. Those motorcycle booties are a great idea and I think I will have to get a pair. My wife and I use those flat rubber water bottles that have wool on the outside as a warmer, they work fantastic but the hole is smaller so can be a pain to fill if you don't have a small funnel. Pretty comfy though, a warm little water bed for the feet.

[@shugemery]

Hope the tips help.

[@troydejesu9245]

this dude is very funny and informative, the best way to learn!

[@shugemery]

Thanks feller....

[@grantl9814]

that hot water bottle trick is a game changer! if you put boiling water in there it turns your sleeping bag into an oven.

[@shugemery]

Mine is usually somewhat warm in the morning when I use it for espresso from the hammock.

[@MatanuskaHIGH]

Grant L yep nalgene bottle is a!ways part of my winter set up..and since I have to melt snow anyway I might as well use that warmth..

[@jwagnermail]

Here is the trick for keeping the hot water bottle from crushing after it cools off - fill the bottle with water almost all the way. The area above the water with steam is where it changes volume when it gets cold, water itself doesn't change volume much.

[@MatanuskaHIGH]

+J Wagner use a nalgene

[@TFWS6]

Granted it was only in the mid 30's when I tried having my jacket around the foot of my hammock but I was amazed at how well it worked. I've camped in warmer weather and not been so warm in my hammock.

[@BushidoDevilDog]

You can do the water bottle trick even with a PET bottle. Once it is under the covers/inside the sleeping bag it will stay warm for HOURS after initially pouring the water in. Learned this from my Mrs., who did it to warm my ice-cold feet under the futon (she's Japanese and we live in Tokyo) in winter. Works like a charm!

[@shugemery]

Good stuff...arigato.

[@ronschreiber3635]

Nice .a lot of great cold weather Tips Thanks again

[@shugemery]

Y'elcome.

[@KaylynnStrain]

that hot bottle trick was success when I did some winter camping, I kept one at my chest to keep my core temp up, and occasionally I'd put one at my feet and keep my feet in contact with it, and I wore polar socks to sleep in

[@shugemery]

Happy to hear that!

[@ejones2219]

I used the jacket trick this weekend! Worked great. Thanks for the tip!

[@shugemery]

Great to hear......I still use that all the time in real cold weather.

[@tomjohnson8548]

thanks shug, i am ordering up a pair of the neoprene booties right now. i am going to try winter camping this year, so

[@shugemery]

If the feet are warm...all is good.

Thank u for this tip. I just put my hammock, underquilt, and hammock accessories to my locker. Ready to put up this new six-person tent and cot as im 50 years old and can't get up from the floor. This is my home, not for camping.

[@shugemery]

Cot on my friend.

[@pangeria12]

@@shugemery thanks

[@brewingtime]

Shug, you rock! This is a sensitive subject here. )) Good point on the NOT leaking hot water bottle. I Screwed up once and had one leak after the cap cracked in the sleeping bag. For some reason I really wanted to pea....dang... the bottle was leaking warm water! It was a really bad night after that but at least had a wiggy's bag so it was not a deadly night. Good idea on mentioning the pressure build up with boiling hot water in a water bottle. Great vid too! Lots of options to try!!

[@shugemery]

Get to know them there bottles....Thankee.

[@howdydoughty7634]

Enjoyed it shug. I've been using my Costco double black diamond down throw inside my 3 season bag to help with extra insulation.

[@shugemery]

Down in footbox I suppose.

[@howdydoughty7634]

Do you need insulated boots on the Pacific Coast? Or doe go camp in the chill from time to time?

Hey Shug, noticed your Campmor jacket. Being a Jersey boy I always knew they had quality stuff, now I'll rely on them even more when I see you trust their gear.

[@shugemery]

Had that over 20 years.

[@MichaelRainabbaRichardson]

I keep thinking about doing some videos then finding yours! I couldn't compete man ;) Thank you so much for doing these videos.

[@shugemery]

You should though. No competition...just be you and do your thing.

[@MichaelRainabbaRichardson]

"just be you" That's why I couldn't compete. I'm boring as shit, but I LOVE learning AND sharing. You're doing a terrific job at all 3. I get to learn much of what I need AND come away feeling better. I've been looking for a long-term under-hammock solution (I have and love the OneTigris, but it's too small for me) so I'm researching and this video got me thinking about my (now seldom used) Big Agnes bag (slightly older version of www.bigagnes.com/Lost-Ranger-15_2) and how I might use it as an over-quilt with some slight modifications to create a better foot-box, THEN use my coat as you showed here (wish I'd have thought of that 2 nights ago) and as I was looking at how I'd do that, when it occurred to me I could cut the underside which has NO insulation because it's assumed that a BA pad will be used and I realized that there's holes and tabs in really interesting places and now I'm thinking that either I'm REALLY lucky, or someone was thinking of under-quilts because i don't have to do anything except run shock cord through the holes/tabs in the end and then around my hammock towards the ends, and the result is an awesome under-quilt without ANY modifications. I've had this bag for years and considered going as far as re-purposing the fill and I've never had this idea so I'm crediting you ;)

[@TheJeffers000]

Love the videos Shug. The toasty toes work great for me. One trick I use with them is to put on a thin liner sock then apply the toasty toes, and then put on a nice loose wool sock. It seems to really rev up the affect of the toe warmers.

[@shugemery]

Perfecto!

[@BornRandy62]

the sticky pack toe warmers saved my toes when I misjudged to temps. I roaded a tractor 7 hours in subzero starting about 15 at the end. I had insulated hiking boots with heavy wool socks and then it wasnt enough. So I had the packets with me and I added them. Toasty . they arent like a hot coal in your boot.

[@shugemery]

Good to hear that they did you right.

[@tonyrobbins6]

I usually do not have much of a problem with cold feet sleeping. Though, getting up in the morning even only down to 15 degrees, putting on my hiking boots to pack up make my toes go numb. Then it takes at least two miles of hiking before I can even feel them. Now I do have a pair of boots rated to -65 with reflectix on the inside. They are great in the morning, my toes don't go numb, BUT, hiking in them, make my feet sweat terribly. So I don't hike with insulated boots anymore. Happy New Year. It turned 2019 while I was writing this comment.!

[@shugemery]

My Keens get soaking and full of condensation like that. Not my mukluks though. Hike on~~~~

[@benningtoncamper2852]

great tips - artfully presented as always!!

[@shugemery]

Thank you.

[@driver3899]

Always interesting to see what other people do, thanks for the video. Some of my own tips: 1. Get boots that have Gortex liner so your feet don't get wet, this solves many problems. 2. Only wear your base layer (thermals) to bed, anything else will just compress the down in your sleeping bag and make it less effective. 3. Sleep on the ground with a roll mat and bivi instead of in a hammock. 4. Have chocolate before bed, sugar revs up your metabolism which will produce warmth. 5. Have a hot drink before bed, dehydration makes you sleep colder.

[@shugemery]

I agree with all but the hammock part 3! ....kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYXYeH2doMZkp8U You can see I am all hammock.

[@brianmowers307]

Synthetic booty...a Kardashian favorite! I still have my LaCrosse Icemans from 25 years ago that I wore pretty much all winter when I lived in Northern Wisconsin. Since moving to NC I think I've worn them twice. They are packed with thick felt and very warm, but not at all lightweight!

[@shugemery]

Oh yeah. Haevy but ever-so warm.

[@timmorrison5867]

Shugemery, That colorful hat is great.

[@shugemery]

Aye...it was a gift!

[@TacBlades]

All great tips, i really have to find a loose fitting wool sock. Before getting into the hammock i always rub my feet with a anti microbial foot powder, keeps them dry, fresh and also warms them up.

[@shugemery]

Try a Smartwool Expedition wool sock.

[@skids62]

I've never heard of those Meisters before, but it is usually my toes that get cold. I have a pair of neoprene socks that I didn't like because they were too tight. I just cut a pair of toe warmers out of them and they fit comfortably, I'll use the rest as a bottle cosy. I'll have to try them out tomorrow. Thanks

[@shugemery]

Whooooo Buddy

[@RiDankulous]

A trick that works is the stomping of feet. I have family that were police officers in NYC and in the winter when staying, stomping warms up the feet and and legs. It's very effective.

[@shugemery]

Kinda like running in place sorta kinda. Good stuff/

[@DonMilligan]

Buncha very useful tips, I prefer the brisk walk just before sleep to hang the bear bag and down booties trick meself.

[@DonP_is_lostagain]

Icelandic wool is, IMHO, the warmest stuff on the planet. I've got two pair of socks and used to have a couple of sweaters that I got when I was in Iceland with the USAF. The sweaters are long gone, but still have a pair of socks and just bought another pair this past spring strictly for winter hanging and sleeping. I don't hike in them and only use them for sleeping. I've also used them with a pair of Western Mountaineering Standard Down Booties and my feet are toasty. Of course, I am in Tejas and am one of those "weird' guys who goes hanging and hiking in 100°+ temps. :-) And we don't get the temps in winter y'all get, but it can get into the 20's or even teens and for us, that's pretty cold. Have used the warm bottle trick and even put a bottle of warm water with one of those toe warmer packs inside a neoprene cover and it almost made my whole setup (TQ/UQ) too hot. But with those wool socks on, my toesies were toasty. I also used mil-spec mukluks and those are the bomb! Still have a pair somewhere and they're a rubber bottom with a nylon upper and will keep your feet dry and warm until you start to sweat in them. They also come with a set of thickish wool inserts that I even used around the house for slippers. May have to find those and come up there for hte Frozen Butt hang next year. :-)

[@gus1911]

No more cold feets for me. Thanks Shug!!!

[@shugemery]

Hope the tips help.

[@mapu1]

Pro tip. Your winter boots should be one size larger than usual, so you can wear actual decent socks. , and have extra space. Also dry your boots out. And your socks. Also get something that breathes/absorbs sweat. 90% off cold feet come from you sweating in your boots.

[@shugemery]

Righto

[@AdventuresInWetShaving]

Great info Shug! I ordered some Meister toe warmers (my toe are always a problem), thanks! :)

[@shugemery]

Musta been a right goodie of a trip.

[@fergusrb]

This is not a foot thing. My son and I and his wife went to Mammoth Lakes backpacking in September as June everything was snowed in. We were in tents and I had a 20 degree bag. In the night my legs got cold and I remembered what Shug had said. I took a fleece jacket that was under my pillow and zipped it up and stuck my feet through the bottom and came out the top. Did not remember about the sleeves. I immediately felt my legs getting warm and was good the rest of the night. My son said his phone said it was 29 degrees. May not be cold for you but it is for me. Thanks Shug, one more gem to tuck away. Bruce from the city of orange in orange county California

Oh and by the way, I purchased two of the down hats....way comfy..... thanks a bunch!!

[@josefarrington]

1:57 Agree; When your feet are cold, the vessels contract and its even harder to warm them up with your blood. That's why you need to make sure that they are warm before you go to bed.

[@shugemery]

Righto~

[@tayninh69]
