  • Cabelas Big Horn III - Hot Tent Overnight Winter Camp
    Well the time had arrived to finally get my Cabelas Big Horn III tent out in the snow. Little did I know what lay ahead for me.
    Unfortunately, I miss judged the snow volume in my normal camping area and was surprised by the depth. Not only this but I forgot my camera gear, I didn't bring my snow shoes or tire chains.
    I wasn't going to give up that easy so after many hours of shovelling, I cleared a path for my truck and a large enough space for my tent.
    Hope you enjoy the video :) Sorry It was a little short!

    Hi again, Michael- seems we picked the same time frame to field test our tents! I just got back from 9 days in the White Mts. with my pups and the BH3. Not much snow, just a few inches the first few days, but plenty of wind (gusts up to 50 mph), and the tent lived up to Cabela's claims. Got a few pics I posted on my channel. Doesn't show it, but I added the vestibule on the 3rd day. Highly recommended for extended stays!

It takes only a couple of minutes to put up and secure. I am trying one this year. Have you ever thought about booties for Esme?

    I have the same BH3 and a wilderness 4 stove. The vents in the side wall near knee level allow a very strong draft that is not very pleasant when sleeping. I’m sure it’s a safety issue but you can not close any of them. Just returned from a 7 day hunt with temps low 20°F to upper teens each night. Curious if you had the same or similar issue with your BH3?

    • @TheEmporiumOutdoors

      So yes - I did notice the same thing and I did seal off the one near my bunk. You obviously do need airflow but the other vents more than compensated for the one I closed. I've seen other people do the same on RUclips. Hope that helps.

    I'm thinking of getting a Big Horn and using it from December to mid-March for rabbit hunting here in Quebec.

    • @TheEmporiumOutdoors
      @TheEmporiumOutdoors  5 лет назад +1

      Hi Stanley - The tent takes around 20 minutes to setup in the summer with one guy. In winter everything takes longer - so double that time. Two people would make it much quicker. With the right stove you could easily get to +20c inside with -15c outside. Packing away the tent in snow and ice was more of a challenge than putting it up. Its a pretty heavy tent (80lb) and with ice and snow on it - it was heavy! I moved to a Snowtrekker tent, which is smaller and much easier for deal with in snow. I have it on my later videos if you want to take a look.

    • @TheEmporiumOutdoors
      @TheEmporiumOutdoors  5 лет назад +1

      Hi Robert. I can try and explain the floor vs no floor for you. Typically winter specialist tent do not have a floor (Snowtrekker etc) as traditionally, spruce bows would be used to line the floor and insulate the tent. This also allows for people to keep their boots on and not worry about tramping snow or melt into a sealed area. Small amount of snow or wet simply shake through the bows. Additionally, with a floored tent over a few days of heating the tent and re-freezing the floor of the tent can get frozen to the ice beneath, making packing the tent very difficult. The Snowtrekker for instance can also be much lighter with no floor. The Big Horn III is more of an all round tent that can also be used in winter. I would place a tarp under the tent to stop the floor freezing to the ice - so a double floor. In my Snowtrekker, I use a couple of heavy duty Oxford mats in the areas I sit or put equipment and the rest is open. In summary - you don't need a floor in the tent if you use it in cold temperatures where the floor won't melt :) hope that helps. How do you like the hat?

    Windows wide open with the stove on? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose? Just curious.

    • @TheEmporiumOutdoors

      They are a plastic windows so they may look open but are closed. There are lots of vents on this tent and you need to keep the airflow going to ensure the stove will be safe! Hope that helps!

    Is there a reason you never say what part of Canada you're in ? I can understand you not wanting people dropping by your favorite campsite but you could at least narrow it down to a province or territory. It's driving mu buddies and I nuts trying to figure it out.and we have a small bet on who's closest. Lots of bush, mainly fir, with plenty of snow but fairly flat, don't see any mountains or big hills so I'm guessing northern Manitoba or Saskatchewan

    • @TheEmporiumOutdoors
      @TheEmporiumOutdoors  4 года назад

      Hi Thom - Ive mentioned it many time in the comments but for many views abroad, telling them the province would not help them find it on a map 😃 I'm in Albert and camp about 2 hours west of Edmonton mainly. On some videos you can see the rockies 😉 Where are you in Canada?

    I have one of these tents. When the wind picks up and if there is any rain or snow, it comes directly into the tent via the air vents at the bottom. There is nothing to close them down. Even with my stove being fed very often and kept in hot, the vents at the top and thin wall made it a true nightmare. It ruined our camping trip. There are many tents available at cheaper prices. Cabelas do Not back these problems or have any resolutions.

    • @gensherman2984
      @gensherman2984 5 лет назад

      Thanks. I also found mine was hard to repack after bad weather. I hung mine for a couple days in the shop to dry it out. I will also be checking out other tents as these are NOT meant for long term cold weather. The stove must be hot continuously or it get cold instantly. Understanding it needs some ventilation when burning wood, these tents have way to much ventalation that can not be controlled to stop wind nor can it be erected in a direction to avoid wind blowing through the tent. Hoping to find one with a liner or a cover. That would help tremendously. Enjoy the outdoors and thank you.

    It is always better to put on tire chains before you need them. Lugged chains are the best on ice. Other gear is usually needed to get yourself unstuck.

      I found one that is 8'ft at the top? No bottom but you can use pine bows if you have an area with enough of them and make a nice floor. Or just pack the snow down with your snow shoes. Much easier then shoveling snow and with that stove you build it should be cozy in what ever you choose. Any way. Love your channel my friend. If you're ever in Phoenix AZ let me know the first round of pints are on me.

      You know nothing about dogs or Canada. Esme (the dog) was born in these conditions just like all her ancestors. They have become hardened to the conditions and although this looks cold to you it's not. Esme will sleep out in the snow during the winter when at home by her own choice, she has a dog door to come and go as she likes during the night. Esme has a rich life with me and we camp all through the seasons. She loves the outdoors and camping. Please don't be ignorant to how other people live and do some more research.
