Winter Hot Tent Camping | Ultimate setup

[@richardstever3242]

I had a pet rock collection stashed here and there for heating purposes. It is amazing how fast they can take the bite out of winter. After the fire has gone out a nice big rock will still be warm. Wrap it in a towel and bring it into your sleeping bag...shivers gone instantly. Use a roast pan to keep a variety of sizes and types for different purposes.

Very out-standing,everything from yard, house, company, tent, stove,… and sharing how to put up an awesome tent. Thank you once again, a warm way to show us. “ 🙏 “.

Sometimes, I feel like just writing "Ditto" as I don't think that I've ever seen a video from you that I didn't enjoy. It must be fantastic to be able to do what you love so much. Aussie Pete

[@johnbishop1911]

If you have the room, an old school white gas Coleman lantern will warm your tent a lot Not as much as the wood stove but definitely helps

[@stogiebear6892]

Wow! Now that's a tent! So spacious,looking forward to winter camping adventures with you and Brandon! Take care and stay safe!

[@kristingrounds4163]

Loving the new tent!!! Cots would fit perfectly in there as well. It will be especially nice for when you take the snowmobiles camping. I camp in a travel trailer so that is totally glamping LOL

[@billyshumate853]

Great video and nice setup. Take care and have a blessed and safe day

[@antonboludo8886]

Wonderful! Great tent with all the pockets. 18:45 - Yes, this is the most difficult part: you have assembled the stove, then burn wood in it to keep warn, but keep the toxins out.

[@BearCreekWoodworking]

I like that you don’t need a bipod for the stove pipe. A cable is a great idea. Enjoy your new MASSIVE tent Careena! ⛺️😃👏

[@svravenflintlock7526]

I love the new tent, may have to look into getting that one. Awesome that you and Brandon have given it your seals of approval. That is good enough for me. And the stove, too!

[@povcamping]

That looks like the perfect base camp for truck camping/hiking.

[@pisom4314]

i know why you filmed putting it up, its so you know how to get it all folded back up & put into the bag it came with!!! LOL that is a really nice tent & stove, it will make winter trips very nice!!! thanks for sharing & be safe

[@alpineprime9373]

Im so glad you're still out there doing and sharing stuff

[@patrickheavirland3599]

Good morning from Minnesota USA! Some of my Fondest Memories Are from camping out in the backyard as a kid, and then setting up the tent for my kid and letting him and his friends camp out in the backyard! It doesn't matter where you sent up the tent, it's the memories that matter!

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

.... Very nice !! Totally a palace ...A perfect set up for a few days to a couple of weeks ... room to move is the answer to winter treks and shared outdoor events ... I have had a few hot tents over the years ,, my last purchase is a White Duck Regatta Bell tent with a Winnerwell Woodlander stove ,, Great set up for me now ..........Good to see the sub count climbing ,, won't be long you will be reaching that million mark .... With a back yard like that ,, you could pull off plenty of outdoor and bushcraft video's ,, nobody needs to know that you didn't pack in 20 miles ,,, there are lots of creators that do it that way .... looks now to need a bigger pulk sled or toboggan for the gear ... Look forward to 2024 treks and trials with Alexis and Brandon .... Stay Safe ...

[@pauleddy5146]

As you get older, those little creature comforts are a blessing. Yes, more to drag out, but worth the weight in fun! Set it up and stay a weekend? Yep. Overnight? Nope. This is an extended stay shelter. I really prefer a week out, if you can manage it, because you didn't go camp to setup and tear down, you went to do all the other things you can do. Be comfortable, have fun, stay warm. Frozen extremities is not fun. huddling together is fun for a awhile, if it's the necessity? Nope. Love the tent. Really close to my US Army surplus 6 Man, but it also had a kitchen addition on the front, no floor. Great place to leave the wet stuff and non-essentials. Used to take me 1 hour alone to set it up. 2 people? less than half.

[@mikekoselowski9398]

Nothing's better than a hot tent and sleeping on cots. Gets you off the cold ground and provides storage underneath. Enjoy. Can't wait to see your next adventure. Cheers from beautiful BC

[@davcox100]

Great to switch things up a bit Careena. Love the upgrade in tent equipment. That’s some quality tent and fantastic for a family who want to explore a particular area and use a good quality tent as base camp. As you say you certainly can make it home sweet home. 👍

[@user-David-Alan]

That set up is awesome. You could almost live in that thing. Have fun and I will be looking for your next video. Stay well and be safe.

[@paultaylor5266]

That is a nice tent for 'Glamping' Once you try it you'll be hooked..... But seriously if you go out with the girls it's a great way to share your fountain of knowledge with them while being comfortable. Bit different here in the UK so I have a set of 'Glamping' gear for when out with the family and stuff I use just for me, love both. Really natural Careena, keep 'em coming.

[@Rosy_87]

About time Brandon makes an appearance. Lol. The tent looks very well made. Curious to see how it holds up to some snow and wind loads. Looks like something the whole family can enjoy.

[@BBQDad463]

Thank you for this video. I think you are going to love that tent.

[@antonboludo8886]

It has not even been very cold, neither in Ontario nor in Québec. This also means that the lakes in both Provinces are not frozen over. Be careful when walking on them.

[@WhereGascoyneGoes]

Good to see you're trying new things. My wife and I have a similar glamping set up of canvas bell tent, woodburner, camp beds (or cots as you call them) with wool blankets and rugs on the ground sheet. The only drawback is the prep time, packing and unpacking and then drying out a damp canvas tent if it gets wet. All good though and worth it 😊

[@-Star-Soul]

Dang girl! That's impressive and amazing. You make the whole process look easy. I want to go camping with you ❤

[@paulparisien8198]

One thing I want to had.., I want windows in my next hot tent.....I like watching the snow fall when my fire is goin, i miss that !!!!

[@theredflannelchannel7820]

Awesome! I’m in northern Idaho almost at the Canadian border. We are supposed to get down to -20F this weekend. I was thinking about putting my hot tent up in the yard and honing my cold weather skills and gear.

[@brianludlow9104]

Bonners Ferry or further North ? I lived in BF for about 5 years before returning to Alaska.

[@theredflannelchannel7820]

@@brianludlow9104 yup Bonners! Been considering Alaska lately but that might be too far north.

[@davidhaley872]

I like your priorities, you always make coffee!

[@bradlapp2831]

Springbar tents are the best. I've had mine for years. Glamping hack, I put two uhaul pads / quilts (side by side) on the floor and its literally like carpet for comfort and warmth and it protects your floor. Loved the video, as usual :)

[@whiteraven3753]

Strangely enough, I did the same thing last December - Bought a Cabela 12' Ultimate Alaknak Outfitter tent - The last in their inventory - It was discontinued and 40% off... It is a great tent... And a stove... Back yard winter camping... Lovely outdoor sleeping at home... Weights some 85 lbs... 12' square with center pole, so one person can set it up... Sleep with Bushcraft Spain blanket and oilskin wool cover, and sheepskins...

[@BeckiandChris]

This set up looks incredible!!

[@careenaalexis]

Dude it’s going to be amazeballs! Gettin er all dialed in for our trip 😉

Winter Hot Tent Glamping | Ultimate setup

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

That's sweet how the chimney guard just zips into place!

[@Levitus1]

May I recommend a ground cloth to protect the floor from punctures and the rain fly is handy. I’m in Arizona and the rain fly also protects the tent from the brutal sun in the summer. I leave my tent up for weeks at a time at home as you did and also at my mountain property. When you roll up the door awning, roll it opposite of the way you did. That prevents water from accumulating inside the bundle. When setting it up or taking it down, unzip a window or door to allow airflow. I saw your request for me to message you. I was busy then I forgot….Sorry ( old timers disease 😉)

[@KevinKerwin-z1i]

Nice tent ..I like the way the stove hooks up to the flu.and the sturdiness of it

[@Hunter-wd8id]

mention where u got the , stove, seemed good could hear the draw, fire mat, looked easy to fold. nice job.

[@paulbier2182]

Hey Careena! I just wanted to say that you inspire my two daughters .. They have been watching your channel for the last 3 years. We're already a backpacking family. However, they really like the fact that they can see a woman doing this sort of outdoor activities. I just wanted to let you know that! Keep up the good content!

[@careenaalexis]

Comments like this bring me immense joy! Thank you so so much for letting me know, I'm honoured to have a positive affect on young ladies in this day and age!!

[@Jesus4444me]

Always a great video! Thank you for sharing your life with us! Love the tent of course!

[@GAPTEXPLORE]

*_Hello Careena... I like the review of this tent, it is very suitable for camping activities at camping ground locations, if climbing mountains is a bit of a hassle, except for climbing in large groups.... Greetings from Indonesia...._* 💯👌👍

[@frankwarner970]

That thing is huge!! Seems like a good quality tent!! I don't think your hammer was quite big enough for driving those tent stakes in. LOL!! Long way from sleeping in the woods under a tarp on pine boughs with Grizz in the early days. Come a long way Girl!!! Happy for you!!

[@Crittermoto]

That isn’t no tent…..it’s a full on forest apartment! 😂 Super awesome, what a great way to really enjoy winter camping in comfort and style.

[@jaredbaratono897]

Please do a follow up after you’ve had it out and about some. Interested to see how it holds up through some strong wind, and or heavy snow. Great vid!

[@denniskuenze659]

Great tent and stove setup. Nothing wrong with a few creature comforts for a change. Been subscribed since you worried about breaking 10K subs . Now you're in the big time.

[@DaveCollierCamping]

Excellent video

[@minimanjos84]

Nice tent! I loved my huge 12 man tent for glamping every now and then with friends. Very different to my usual wild camping, but great fun. Especially having a carpet in a tent! No stove though, very jealous. Some help if you want to add chapters, 8:15 to 8:45 is unintentional ASMR!

[@royshidler3351]

Congrats on new tent looking forward to videos

[@jamesbynion9534]

Just so I have a good idea of how warm it was, you said it was -5. Was that Fahrenheit? I will be living in the tent for the entire winter in northern Nevada. Thank you for this helpful video.

Liked and subscribed. Thanks for the excellent video. I own and have used extensively a Kodiak tent that's comparable to your Springbar tent, in fact, come for the same origins. Mine does not have a stove jack, and I'd *love* to have one installed. Well done!

Hi Alexis, what happening? Hope all is well and you and your wonderful hubby are doing well. Thanks for the content, loved it sista.

[@victorvos2833]

Like the hottent idea. You dont see those in the Netherlands. What i dont understand is the flat top. What do you do with al lot of rainn or snow?

[@davemason6501]

My thoughts exactly. Best I can see is hanging a tarp with a ridgeline, to shed rain and snow.

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

... SOOOO ,, being as this was made 9 months ago from my now viewing on Nov. 1st ,, Yourself and Brandon appears to have gone out and played Outback Woodsman to break in the new tent ... You rascals !! ..

[@unfi6798]

Cool mate. Not like you not toughing it out though. Great stove. Wow tent, But too big & too heavy, rather tough it out with less to carry. That tent is excellent for a family adventure in the woods. Will try making that stove next week some time, using material found at the dump. Cheers mate.

[@lesliehutcheson9843]

Another great video, keep them coming.

[@janhollis8979]

This set up is great! One question...the stove won't be hot enough to melt the rubber seal in the tent wall? I'm just curious. You obviously could have an extended stay really comfortably, it would seem. Hey, from Lanett, AL❤

[@rickkearn7100]

Nice to see a new vid of a Springbar tent, and well-produced. Suggestion: at the 12:00 timestamp, why not add two more steel support cables from the end of each springbar then straight out to the chimney? Would add lateral support in high winds. BTW this tent should withstand 70mph winds but watch out for snow loads in blizzards! I own the predecessor to this tent, the Family Camper 7, and have had many years of service without issues, and it's still going strong. I don't use a tent stove though. Liked your content, quality, production and presentation so I subscribed. Cheers.

[@careenaalexis]

Appreciate your feedback! Springbar makes amazing quality stuff for sure!!

[@dalezalewski7759]

Do you have radiator fins that fasten to the stovepipe and bring more heat into the tent instead of going up the stack?

[@TheArtisticGardener777]

Good point about the tent roof being flat…that might be a real problem during heavy snow(or rain?). ?

[@careenaalexis]

Its not flat, it's rounded, and it holds up just fine

[@CampWithMatt]

Great vid, love the content! Does the tent have a flat roof? Am curious how that might work with snow and rain? But maybe it didn't come out in the video...

[@careenaalexis]

It's rounded, not flat. A quick tap on the roof from inside the tent if it's snowing keeps it from weighing down, I've left the tent up in the last 2 snowstorms to test it out, definitely needs a bit of maintenance but holds up amazingly well. Rain is fine though. Snow gathers on my tipi style tent too, they will always need a bit of supervision to prevent build up.

[@CampWithMatt]

@@careenaalexis got it, thought that maybe it wasn't completely flat! Tent looks great, you'll have a lot of adventures in that, I hope!
