Thanks man ! Really appreciate it ! This was the coldest we have winter camped so far. A local resident in that area who lives in a cabin about 2km from where we camped, told us the next morning on his personal thermometer he had a reading of -38C without the wind chill … good thing it wasn't windy !

[@doyouhavegainsonyourphone4507]

Excellent video! I have only camped out at temps below -20f one time. It was -25f at 9pm (didn't check again, I imagine it dropped more). We were in Northern Vermont and we didn't have a tent, we made beds using pine boughs to keep us off the snow. We set up our fire about 10ft away from where we slept. We also didn't have any cold specific gear; I had a 30f rated bag and a comforter to wrap up inside the bag. It was very scary because you can really feel how dangerous it is to be doing something like that. This was a year or so ago and I have invested in some better gear for the cold. Again great video.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Nice that is an awesome story. First time I did an overnight winter camp, my sleeping bag wasn't the greatest and had to stay all dressed up in it. Definetly need good sleeping gear for the cold. Cheers and stay safe !

if you have a battery watch does it stop working in that temp.?

No the watch is near your body and under clothing so it doesn't freeze. If it would stay outside for a while the batteries would most likely fail quickly.

[@ericb.4358]

TIP: When wearing insulated winter boots wear a 3 mm closed cell neoprene divers' sock over thin poly liner socks. I prefer US Divers socks B/C they are seam sealed and have left and right shaped socks fo avoid bunching of material at the toes. This is called a VBL (Vapor Barrier Liner) and keeps your sweat out of the insulating layer. ** Take one pair thin poly liner socks for each day you will be out. You cause VBL clothing as well. WARMLITE sells VBL suits. ->Put stinky liner socks in a Ziplock bag at the end of the day. Turn divers socks inside-out to dry and then put in the bottom of your sleeping bag to stay warm ALONG WITH YOUR FELT OR FOAM BOOT LINERS! This avoids a foxes pair pf boots in the morning. ->Telescope the top of your outer boots to keep spindrift snow out of them and place in your tent vestibule. BTW, the coldest temps I've ever experienced was -40 F./C. in 1979.

[@alainlefebvre9860]

Hi, looking at buying a hot tent. What are the biggest plusses a minuses of this one, please?

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Hmmm good question. This is one is quite light with only the center pole as a structure. The stove is in the center so sometimes nice for heating equally, but it does get in the way and you have to watch to not rub your clothes on the chimney. This on is a 10 oz. cotton so quite thick and solid. The 7 oz. cotton version is lighter but more fragile and more air goes through. Depends what you are looking for. the 10 by 10 feet is good size for 2 or 3 people and quite light to carry. Some other models are more spacious and have a bigger structure made of various aluminium tubes which is really nice if you do not have to carry it by hiking in or backpacking in etc. Depends what you are looking for ! Hot tenting is alot better than cold tenting in canadian winters for sure. Alot more comfort. I did a recent video last winter and my friend has a snowtrekker tent and you can see both models quite well.

No I haven't had issues, I do get some welds that failed on the chimney though, only issue. I haven't tried it in heavy rain but with snow nothing gets in. When the stove is going it is hot and will evaporate any precipitations. Hope this helps.

Hey, great video! Did I hear correctly, do you put fire bricks in the bottom of your tent stove?

That is correct, although it is a heavy option if you are travelling far. As a basecamp options it is a nice protection for the bottom of the stove and retains a little bit of heat with the coals.

[@tateseacrest4609]

22:48 actually no to correct you: Flame color depends on several factors, the most important typically being black-body radiation and spectral band emission, with both spectral line emission and spectral line absorption playing smaller roles. In the most common type of flame, hydrocarbon flames, the most important factor determining color is oxygen supply and the extent of fuel-oxygen pre-mixing, which determines the rate of combustion and thus the temperature and reaction paths, thereby producing different color hues. In a laboratory under normal gravity conditions and with a closed oxygen valve, a Bunsen burner burns with yellow flame (also called a safety flame) at around 1,000 °C (1,800 °F). This is due to incandescence of very fine soot particles that are produced in the flame. With increasing oxygen supply, less black body-radiating soot is produced due to a more complete combustion and the reaction creates enough energy to excite and ionize gas molecules in the flame, leading to a blue appearance. The spectrum of a premixed (complete combustion) butane flame on the right shows that the blue color arises specifically due to emission of excited molecular radicals in the flame, which emit most of their light well below ≈565 nanometers in the blue and green regions of the visible spectrum. The colder part of a diffusion (incomplete combustion) flame will be red, transitioning to orange, yellow, and white as the temperature increases as evidenced by changes in the black-body radiation spectrum. For a given flame's region, the closer to white on this scale, the hotter that section of the flame is. The transitions are often apparent in fires, in which the color emitted closest to the fuel is white, with an orange section above it, and reddish flames the highest of all. A blue-colored flame only emerges when the amount of soot decreases and the blue emissions from excited molecular radicals become dominant, though the blue can often be seen near the base of candles where airborne soot is less concentrated. Specific colors can be imparted to the flame by introduction of excitable species with bright emission spectrum lines. In analytical chemistry, this effect is used in flame tests to determine presence of some metal ions. In pyrotechnics, the pyrotechnic colorants are used to produce brightly colored fireworks. That being said I enjoyed the video sir 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Thanks again for sharing it with us. I just subscribed!

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Temperature inside the tent varies alot depending on how much we heat the stove. So when heating good with lots of coals it would be around +20C at 6 ft of height but at 3 ft of height around 10C or 15 C. While as ground level stays pretty cool around -5C or 0C as the heat just rises right away. Also depends on if we open the door or not, air flow etc. So pretty tough to say how much exactly. I would need some thermometers to set in different areas and actually test it out. Maybe in a future video next winter. For the boots and the hand warmers, yes it would work for sure. I personally don't use them but I have camped with people who did and they are really handy. Also good inside the sleeping bag in the evening/night. Thanks so much for watching/subbing and hope you enjoy my content. Cheers.
