A hot tent is a lot of work but the benefits of warmth, comfort, cooking surface and dry gear is very pleasing in rough conditions. Yes the trick is to use it for a multi day situation. A base camp for camping, day hiking, snowshoeing , ski touring, split boarding, XC skiing, snowmobiling, fishing or some activity.nice area you are, great stuff. Get a snowmobile 😊❤️🇺🇸❄️☃️🛷🔥⛺️🌄

I like this analysis. Any kind of camping is a lot of work and the appeal to me (as you pointed out) is that it does keep you busy...In a good way! I found that the more busier you are, the more comforts you add to the experience. This hot tenting thing is definitely on my bucket list. This is coming from someone that only knew cold camping as an option. Cheers!

Perfect description of both the pros and cons. My stove tent is too bulky for backpacking, but helps me get out to dispersed car camping sites in the winter that are normally crowded in the summer months. Lots of work for sure, definitely good to have a buddy or two to divide and conquer all the work it entails.

That front chest pack is a Kit Bag from Hill People Gear. It allows easy carry of a firearm, and I’ve got some small gear in the front zipper pocket, like a small flashlight, chapstick, lighter, etc. Honestly I don’t really work out. 😬 I should. But I do hike a lot and where I live, basically all the trails are uphill.

Great realistic video of hot tent camping! Impressive you managed to stuff all that equipment into the deuter 55 😀. When we hot tent we put snow all around the tent skirt to remove any draft, and if the tent handle it, up along the walls for insulation. A light titanium stove doesn't radiate that much heat, there is a reasons why native Americans used teepee. Good old fire pit in the midle is so much better. Silnylon doesn't insulate, it just prevent wind, so what we do is using a big tarp, shaping it and making sure it's possible to have a firepit going, put a mesh net over it so the tarp doesn't get damaged. We make sure the sleep system is overrated for the trip and when it's bedtime we close the tarp, it's more important to get good sleep than constant putting firewood into the stove. This is probably like swearing in church, but to be honest.... Just bring a makita duc101z or similar , it makes wood processing extremely comfy. The pros are it's light weight, quiet, and last long time with a 6 ah battery, cons it's kinda cheating, but is it really? And bring usb heated pads. Put them in your chair, on your body strategically, in your sleeping bag. UNLESS you want to go survival mode camping during winter. Never underestimate the cold, and if it's windy too, you better bring the correct clothing. Just some thoughts from Norway.

Right now I am doing cold tent camping for 1 to 3 nights as I like to change camp once in a while. I alway's bring my sled for gear , snow can get very deep where I live. As you mention , when cold camping , sleeping time is alway's around 7- 7:30 . I do make a fire around 4 ( already dark ) , and enjoy it until 7 . A hot tent would be nice for the morning or when the weather keeps you inside . Thanks for all the pros and con

@@steveolesen8033 I am genuinely asking. If you’re going to make the statement, stand behind it and tell me. I wasn’t miserable and it’s far from my first time using a hot tent. The stove pipe is rolled and secured as instructed by the manufacturer, and doesn’t leak. The stove comes from a reputable manufacturer and sure it’s small, but that makes it easier to carry in a pack. Snow skirts aren’t required on a tent. Piling snow around the edges is also an option if you don’t have snow skirts. My sleep system is/was very comfortable and appropriate for the conditions, and I had all the necessary gear to enjoy myself. So what part of it gave you the impression that I was miserable? What hazard am I missing that I should be mindful of? I’m genuinely asking here.

@@BackcountryExposure do I have to remind you that carbon monoxide is an invisible gas and you can't smell it??? Are you actually trying to tell me that a rolled up piece of thin metal that isn't sealed is not going to leak???? Seriously??? Again there are several other youtubers out there I can watch...take care

Looks absolutely miserable and there are so many examples in this video that vindicate my reasoning for hating winter camping. You all go enjoy the misery...it's still a hard no for me.

I've learned to enjoy it, but I have to go in with the mindset to enjoy it. But I completely get it!

If this is what you call misery, it makes me wonder what you call real problems in life.
