A picture is worth a thousand words...and this video is worth thousand pictures! Another masterpiece. Thanks Jonathan.
Thanks a million Andy!
@@LostLakes Good math...haha!
@@andyrunkel8296 😆 Stumbled into that one!
"Know your limit and play within it." That's a new phrase for me, and very powerful. Thank you!
Thanks Brian! Stole it from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation 😅
When my son was two or three we went camping. He fell asleep in the car. We arrived and setup the tent and moved him in. When he woke the sun was shining through dew covered canvas magically lighting the tent above his 'bed' - 30+ years later the memory of his smile of wonder still delights me.
Aw that's nice...the way light comes through is heavenly
@@LostLakes maybe that’s why they call that kind of light ‘God’s rays’! 😂
That’s a beautiful memory. I sometimes wonder which my dad has of when he and I camped and what I might remember as a father myself in the future.
That was comprehensive and wonderful to watch! Great video Jon!
Thanks buddy!!
This was good information. You talked faster than a used car salesman, but loved that you did so. So much growth over 4ish years in terms of content, editing, narration, and fun. Keep ‘em comin!
Hahah thanks so much Tom!
I turned playback speed to 0.75%.... I'm a slow learner. Great tips, thanks so much for amazing video.
I agree with Brett. This is a dissertation level presentation of camping with every angle and question thoroughly explained and answered. An impeccable testament to the dedication and diligence of your time well thought out and spent, every T has been crossed and I's dotted with all ducks in a row.
With that.....I don't think I'll be doing much camping.
Very much appreciated!
The amount of information packed into this One video is Astonishing. Kudos!
Thank you!

I live in the tropics and still found this useful. All the best for 2023.
Excellent video! Packed with everything you need to know! There is nothing more satisfying than falling asleep in a hot tent after a ‘labor of love’ day ❤️
Thanks a lot BC! It's a great feeling :)
Another tip for those new to winter camping, which is a "yes, but" on Jon's advice about starting warm and working up to colder temperatures. Near freezing, either just above or just below is the worst weather for camping. You will get wet, which will make you cold, which in turn can be deadly. "Comfortably" below freezing has the advantage that you won't get wet from the weather. Go slow, adjust your layers, and change clothes as needed to manage your perspiration and stay dry.
Very true...when it hovers around freezing is tough
Yep. I do snow removal. The second last snow storm Toronto had(around zero Celsius) I was soaking wet in 1 hour if clothing is at all suspect. One year old gortex gloves a sponge immediately.Soaked to the bone for about the ten hours. Warm enough while we worked but freezing when we stopped. The last storm, minus 10 to 15...a little damp after 5 hours but from within i think. Cold is different issues. After 10 years I think PVC/PU rainwear (especially gloves) around zero to minus 5 approx. I bought a full set yesterday for work and to try with winter camping
Snow with sand qualities is my preferred winter camp. Rarely wet, easy to move and gives a satisfying swish sound. Super cold but that’s the fun part.
one of the most informative videos i have seen on the subject. especially talking about working up to colder temps. great vid as always.
Thanks Jason!
The narration is incredible.
As much as I hate the cold weather down here in North Carolina I don't know why I am drawn to your channel over the years. Must be the adventures and good people!!!!!
💚💚
This video will be so helpful for my upcoming New Years winter camping trip that I am taking my fiancé on! Thanks Jontario 😘🍾
😝 Can't wait 😘
Educating a new generation of outdoor enthusiasts! Good on you Jon 💜 There is no substitute for experience and your insights will benefit so many 🙌🏻🙌🏻👍🏻
Thanks a lot Barret!
Hello jon. As expected, you really made good use of your narrative talent and made me shout cool with music in the ending scene. It's a beauty that only those who have courage and passion can acquire. Thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks a lot June!
I love how you made the tutorial a story. Beautiful job
Really appreciate that!
Metric ton of information, every single piece of it useful! Thanks Jon for taking the time to document all of it! Happy New Year to you and Erin! Cheers!
Much appreciated! Happy new year!
Wow, awsome video Jon! I wish I have seen this when I started hot tent camping. There’s a lot of pertinent info! You have a way to well explain and describe what you live there. That’s true for all your other videos. Love your channel man! Hope 2023 brings Erin and you great trips!
Thanks a lot Michel!
Jon...Best intro yet! Great info...and lots of it! Thank you!
Perfect pace of delivery. Not too fast so as to make it unenjoyable to watch, but fast enough that I had to go back and watch it a few times to digest all of the info. Cheers bud great vid.
Much appreciated Jesse!
Only recently and totaly randomly found this channel.Exceptional work Sir. I love how you learn things on the way and you do not try to pretend you are a master of camping-surviving in the wild. I also love the honesty and the simplicity in everything you do. Really well done!
Truly appreciate that!
I like how a lot of your videos discuss using minimum trace principles. I think too many bushcrafty type videos don't have any caveats, leaving the impression that cutting live trees and high impact methods near an established campsite is normal and ok.
What an exceptional tutorial on winter camping. For me I could start right in my own backyard. And it still take me hours like you to setup and collect firewood. Go video.
Thank you!
Great tips. It doesn’t get anywhere near that cold in the PNW, but I still enjoy playing with a hot tent.
Watching this car camping in my new synthetic hammock hot tent and stove. Thanks for the tips.
Newbies to any outdoor camping style could watch this over and over before realizing how much information there is here. It also must be said that there are many tips and reminders for oldies of camping and outdoors as well in here.
So well done. The most information packed winter camping video I have seen. Greetings from cold Minnesota.
Much appreciated!
Love your adventures John. Love it when you team up with Xander Budnick, you guys have great charisma together! Even the vids where there are 3-4,of you it’s easy to see the friendship the two of you have developed. Your best duo videos are the adventures you have with Xander.
Thanks a lot David!
Maybe the BEST, most concise tutorial on winter camping!
Thank you!!
Another well produced, captivating video! Thank you Jon!
Thank you!
Watched twice in a row; ears caught your words much easier, second time around. Good ideas for summer time also. Thanks, get well and enjoy the balance of your holidays.
Thanks Bruce :)
Dude.. i just tried my first hot tent camp, so much truth in this video, great info, thanks for sharing! (wish I had seen this video before buying my current setup)
That accent in the beginning is 100% Justin Barbour! That cadence, storytelling and of course the accent are dead on 😂
😜
That is one of the best videos I've ever watched!!
So informative! Great job
Thanks so much Todd!
Thanks for the very condensed but informative run down of the important aspects of winter camping and hot tenting.
Great video Jon, love this style as a change of pace.
Cool. You’re being a good friend producing this video for Xander. ;)
😝
That was really well done. Wow, Jon. On another note, I think I saw Erin's face in an ad for North of Superior something something. Small world. 👍🙂
Much appreciated! Hahah yeah we live in a small town so I gave them some lifestyle images to help attract employees
Agree! So much value packed in. Good & clear speaker, too. Great idea adding chapters! Always new learning and teaching. Amazing video, Jon!
Thanks so much!!
Jon and Erin, Happy New Year. Hope you have safe and joyous 2023.
And after this I’m all ready to conquer the world! keep up the good work and great videos man!

Can't wait for your annual with Erin. It's going to be fun. Thanks for sharing.
Great info, having good knowledge of your Surrounding and knowing what to do if something goes wrong, Planning and good experience helps to make camping in the snow fun and good gear .
This was SO helpful Jon!! Thank u so much! Im new to hot tenting and been struggling to gather all this info. You did a great job explaining all the details and concisely too!
So glad to hear that! Thank you!
Very informative. Thank you. All the best for the new year

Thanks a lot Sherry and happy new year!
Very well put together, interesting and informative, even for a bloke that'll never need to hot tent like me.
Keep safe young elf.
Thanks Si!
Lots of great info and another great video. One of my favorite outdoor channels. Keep it up.
Thanks so much!
Chalked full of great information...thanks for putting this together. Lots of very useful information for any type of camping.
Wow that was great! I just started to dip my toe into winter camping last year. First in November with my nylon hammock hot tent, then again in March with a summer tent that I modified with a stove jack and canvas panels sewed over the top mesh. I've learned a lot already (and been inspired to even try it) from watching your videos, but this direct, all in one tutorial is much appreciated. Definitely bringing a bucket this year to sit on, my chair was such a pain in the butt last year.
Thank you :) Glad to hear it! Good ole bucket
Absolutely amazing video Jon. Priceless!
Thanks Evan!
You’re an animal Jon!! Love your channel. Happy new year.
Well done Jontario 👏
Have a Happy new year. Let 2023 be a year full of success and happines to you and yours!!
Thanks and same to you!
Good evening! Thank you for the great tutorial. I really enjoyed this post.
Great video! Smart advise from Jon for many things beyond winter camping, know your limits and play within them. Very informative video, makes me wish I live in a slightly colder climate. Cheers
Thanks a lot WI!
Nicely done, still waiting on safe ice here, looking forward to a Perch dinner. Thanks for sharing.
Great instructional video Jon. I think you covered all the bases!
So well thought out very informative. Thanks Jon.
Great advice. I’m heading out to my little cabin for a -11 sleepover.
This is a great topic. Thanks 🏕☃️💕🎄🚣♂️
What a fantastic video - thank you!
Great video. Happy trails
This is an absolute beauty of a video. A++
Thank you!
Great helpful video a suggestion a 4inch rechargeable/ triple A battery fan helps take heat from the ceiling and can be used for extra heat
He put clips of Erin in just so he wouldn't get a bad reviews for reruns from me LOL. Great video Jon
😝😝
This is such useful information all in one video. Thanks for putting it together and sharing.
Thank you!
Great video. It is nice to hear what is happening intentionally in your other camping videos. like the bucket seat. I never would have thought about all those perks, which explain why you use them over other options.
Well you did it again! Great info! Well put together!
Excellent video packed with lots of informative knowledge. I was doing this back in the late 60’s: early 70’s…. No video phones back then. Use to be a blast👍 Totally understand your love of winter camping 👍 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks Barry!
Great one Jon. Thanks.
Great video Jon
Man you are a awesome dude and I keep saying someone that motivated me to open this chapter in his life and see what hot tent camping is about! You are just a great dude!! If you are ever close to Vermont let me know maybe we can go to a pond because lakes are still scary lol
Really appreciate that Snarfimus! 💚
Great video! I live in Denmark where we rarely get less than a few degrees below freezing in winter, and as another guy said, just around freezing is when it actually is freezing cold! Right next door is Sweden though, which is absolutely perfect. Have a nice new year!
Thank you! Sure helps when it's at least -5C
loved all the stove /wood tips😘great info all video😇
Awesome video!! First of its kind I am sure. Covers absolutely everything
Great job brother
Thank you!
Lots of great information Jon! going to be my first year hot tent camping and ice fishing, can't believe it but for the first time i'm actually excited for winter.
Right on, good feeling eh!
A ton of great information! Thanks.
Super great, cheers for all the info
The freight toboggan looks brilliant. I used to use a toboggan and a string of those "rubbermaid" style bins with lids. if you get the right kind they have ribs like skis.
👍 👍. Thanks. Happy New Year.
I bring a wool blanket and drape it over myself and my sleep system before falling asleep. It helps keep condensation from freezing on outside of expensive bags and adds a extra layer of warmth. Can also help protect sleep system from hot pops and sparks from stove when opening and loading.
How to you keep it from sliding? That's always been my problem with them as I toss and turn a lot. Since got a synthetic overquilt that clips in
@Lost Lakes I'd does slip occasionally, if I'm loading a stove frequently it's not a big deal. I'm thinking of sewing on velcro patches for added grab tho.
@@LostLakes or perhaps a bit of shock chord all the way around sleep pad and loops sewn into the wool blanket .....
Hmmmmm
Happy New Year Jon!
This has all the information that you need for winter camping. Thorough job my friend
Thanks Joseph!
Thanks for sharing, I learned a few things.
Really good information in this video! So glad I found this channel.
Thank you!
I haven't been there in years in the winter, but hot camp is where it's at. So nice having a warm cabin, an outhouse and of course the sauna bath. The hard part is when you go to the outhouse and that 1/2 second sitting on the cold seat. I do admire you and others that hot tent. I am way too old now. All the trips in the past...if only i had the camera technology of now and RUclips. You would be amazed if you knew how much work it took to build our camp before many of the newer logging roads were made.
