Glad you had fun on your first stealth! Don't worry about how many minutes of footage you got, it's hard to make a long video when you're basically sitting there hiding. I can usually only get 25 minutes or so for a single-night stealth camp. Happy new years Joe.
It was smart to pick a pile that was off the actual parking lot. At least it appeared to be. Around here, in Michigan, they often bring dozers and dump trucks in the middle of the night to relocate the huge piles of snow that are taking up parking spots at the edges of the lot. Keep that in mind for anyone looking to try this out.
Oh around here they just wait till it melts, couple weeks or whatever, but then again around here, they're not likely to get more then 1 big snow each year.
I’ve done commercial snow removal and this is beyond beyond dangerous. You could have a company come in at literally anytime to remove piles, add to them, move them to a different location, all of which could get you killed.
Exactly what i was thinking the whole video. I do commercial snow removal every year and I couldn't help but think what if a dozer an dump truck showed up to remove the pile while he was in it😳
Literally the piles all sit there till they melt. As long as i have been alive, 30 years, I've never seen any one come and pick up the snow banks.. thats a huge waste of time and is the reason they just sit there until it melts. Ive seen snow banks stick around for months after the snow was gone because it took alot longer to melt... where exactly are these supposed trucks that pick up snow piles? Never seen that in my life. Again thats just a waste of time.
What would actually happen is a plow coming to dump more snow on top. They literally use parking lot as snow banks for plowed snow. The banks will be around long after the snow melts. Joe and steve actually talk about it towards the end of the video. Seems you might of posted this comment before getting to that part.
@@cosmicbilly I ran a commercial snow removal company in Montreal and I've been paid to remove snow piles many many times, normally in the middle of the night when cars aren't parked close by. I dont really care how many you havent='t seen moved, its done regularly

I’m sure you’ve heard this one in here 1000 times already, but you pick the wrong night to do this and they bring in the big front end loaders to clear out the lot…. could make for a really bad situation and something we’d hear on the news one night.

Joe Robinet and Steve Wallis would be the crossover event of the century! These two cinematic universes just collided and my mind is blown. My two favorite outdoors channels by a long shot! You guys are great and thank you.
Aren't you worried about a plow just smashing into that bank and locking you under snow? I used to love playing in and around those piles but I'd be terrified of sleeping in one. Great upload!
He went to the backside. I was thinking I would have parked the truck in front of my spot just to be safe. But those plows would wake you up, they aren't exactly electric...
It’s not without its risk, but that risk can be managed with a little research into when the next time the might be plowing… check the forecast for snow and check the parking lot for snow waiting to be plowed …. That being said Kids don’t try this at home
Joe and Steve interacting with each other is something I would never guess, but very happy about since I subscribed to both of them. What's next, a collab with Greg Ovens? That would blow my mind. You Canadian outdoors RUclipsrs are always on top of my entertainment list! 😜
Steve isn't a phony , so it wouldn't work well with a fraud like joe. he won't even take this video down and apologize for lying to his subscribers. He bashes other RUclipsrs and it turns out he is the loser. His channel will keep losing viewership once people see the evidence of his fraud.
Something is off with this video. You walked through trees. This was not in a parking lot. I've never seen a multiple story walmart with purple lights. Please explain.
Anyone who has grown up in the Northland has seen snow piles in the parking lots & dreamed of tunneling into them. That was fun to watch your enthusiasm & I enjoyed listening to your conversation with someone who had given you the idea - while giving them credit (Steve). Have a Happy New Year Joe and I look forward to hearing about your upcoming surprise & reveal!
@@willjenner9420 honestly, I couldn't care less. My comment was on the humanity and the phone call. Your comment is just useless. I see you have absolutely 0 content on your channel so as I see it, even a video of the so called hotel room woulda been more than I can see you've done. Put the keyboard down and find something you enjoy in life instead of TRYING to bring others down. Sad man. And we CAN go back and forth....ya know, EVERY comment makes this video do better....you do know that, right? As far as that goes, I'd LOVE for you to go give me a negative comment on all my videos. Maybe even click the unlike button on all of them.
This is the craziest urban camping thing I've ever seen. Totally out of my league. I'd feel a lot safer in the back country with bears and wild life than in the Walmart parking lot. Hats off to you
You and Steve need to do a sketchy stealth camp together but each of you build your own camp to see how each would be different. Great video keep of the good work
I’ve heard stories of kids climbing into snow piles like this and being crushed by snow plows or the piles collapsing 😬 be careful friends. Cool video though
“Straight up facts!” Kudos Joe. I started watching you and Shug around the same time, you two are the forefathers of these types of video in my opinion. Cheers for 2022.
Joe, I'm always been a fan of yours. I watched countless of your videos and I am blown away that you give where the credit is due. I am also a big fan of Steve Wallis. You guys needs to make an awesome video together. Canadians rocks. From a a subscriber here in America. God bless to both of you!
I can't believe you didn't think about snow plows accidentally blocking up your exit! My husband and I were watching and saying to each other- oh no what if he gets stuck or someone blocks out the exit! Glad you seemed to enjoy the experience. Thanks.
The hazard of a plow blocking the exit is valid, but it seems to me the much bigger danger is collapse of the tunnel onto the person. If the exit were just blocked but not collapsed (meaning you're within a cavity in the snow where there's at least some air and your arms and legs are free to move) you'd have a chance to dig your way out. But if the snow collapses on you (which wouldn't require an interfering plow, it could just happen spontaneously while you're digging or later), you'd basically be concreted under, unable to move your arms and/or legs, and with no air. Even if a helpful person was right there and saw it happen, they might not be able to dig you out in time. Not my area of expertise, but I think to safely dig a tunnel (or trench) you need to be continuously installing something to prevent collapse of the roof and sides.
As a Texan who’s only ever had .5 inches of snow it seems truly terrifying to imagine going in there without constantly thinking the snow pile is going to cave in.
Shout out to Joe for inspiring me to get out into the woods and not glamp but hardcore camp! Even my wife loves it! When I take my dog I think of Tripoer and Scout (RIP Skoots Mah-Goots!) your tips and tricks, burps, farts, and funny woops and Joe-isms make this Missouri boy get Oat&Aboat! Thx squirrelly Joe! Bryan/Rockin H Outdoors
Here in western New York we have a Tim's on just about every block, and it's great! After almost 5 years being subscribed to your channel I can say that I respect you a little bit more after this adventure! Thank you for brightening a mundane Thursday.
When I tell you this was my childhood dream I am not kidding, couldn't pass one of these without thinking about tunneling out a spot for myself. Shout out Steve Wallis, two solid dudes in one video!
"Do you have any excuse for this?" - it's just fun, isn't that a good enough excuse? Thanks for sharing this parking lot, snow shelter, "first time stealth camping" experience with us. Greetings from Sweden 😊
My claustrophobia kicks into high gear just watching this but I have to see it through. Happy new year to you Joe and Will and girls and the dogs from the West Coast.
Used to camp like this all the time as a kid when I was hunting. I used pine branches instead of mats but basically the same thing. Its alot easier to make when you have 3 people. And you can build a fire in the center with sleeping cubbies in the sides. It melts a layer of snow that turns into ice and adds a bit of insulation. Super fun highly recommended.
Looks like fun Joe! Kids be careful if you try this. I remember back when I was young in my area a kid made a snow cave and it collapsed on him. He didn't survive.
@@AghoraNath They usually don't collapse, but you don't want to be inside one If it does. I live up north where we get plenty of snow. We did everything when we were kids.
Soo... not to be that guy or anything, but are we gonna talk about 17:01 ? The hotel is clearly in the background...that's not a walmart parking lot..I mean I know it's like a 5 month old video at this point but still.
Don’t worry joe no matter how much credit u get just know we all love you follow u and appreciate the incredible videos and advice you have given us over the years
All my childhood, I was digging igloo from the pile of snow in our backyard, coming from clearing the driveway. Then outer walls.. windows.. And it's nice in there too!
Ahhh, Joe! That was, hands down, one of the funniest camping excursions yet. Pulling a Wallis! In a snow bank in a Walmart parking lot! I cracked up when you were getting stealth camping advice and Steve said, "do you have your excuse ready?" LOL Steve has obviously, been there - done that! Great video. Happy New Year to Joe and Steve!
When a little kid, a kid in our town died digging into a parking lot snow pile. The plow came along and filled him in when he was in there. Viewers be warned. ;)
I'm disappointed that this was videoed not at the Walmart, but next to a parking lot 1.2 miles [edit: kilometers, not miles] from the Walmart. I guess this is the reason for the unusually long stretch without a new video.
@@redbear665 lol dude if you have to use the same copy paste comment over and over defending someone, maybe it should make you think about it? everyone understands its "entertainment" but this is clearly different and more like straight up fraud. why you riding his d1ck defending a con artist? shows a lot about the person you are as well if you think this was ok.
I’m so happy that urban stealth camping is becoming a thing. I love the apocalyptic survival aspect to it lol. Still waiting for someone to stealth camp in a junk yard and or in an abandoned building or other places you may hold up if you had no woods in a situation where you have no other options.
You definitely deserve props, as far as I remember you and corporals corner are the ones that got me out in the woods teaching me almost everything I know. Definitely one of my idols and someone that never lets me down on their videos. Happy new year!
I absolutely agree with giving credit when it is due....and that goes for everything/everywhere in life. This was a fun video...I am quite claustrophobic so it was entertaining living vicariously through you. Happy New Year!!
Thanks for inspiring us in Canada to look at snow in a different way Joe and not hate it. You've definitely been an inspiration for me to get outside and share my beautiful part of the world with others. Now if you only had a step two!
Joe has been exposed. All this time we thought he was in the wild surviving off the land and he has been camping out in Wal-Mart parking lots! Haha. Love the idea and all the different content you provide.
he has been exposed. i dont understand why he felt the need to lie about being in a walmart parking lot. im not saying he didnt sleep in the snow pile but it was next to a hotel and not at the wm
@@bcsushi91 it’s unfortunate. I really enjoyed his stuff. I just don’t get the motivation for the lie. It’s not like he promised it so he had to pretend. I mean he could’ve even said in the video that there wasn’t a good enough pile at WM so he found a spot in another lot. Just makes you wonder what other videos he’s fabricated.
Joe's always wanted to be like Bear Grylls...a liar. He's now achieved that status. Saying he's in the WM parking lot when he's at the Quattro Hotel 1.4km down the road.
I may be a little late to the party but You should rename this video. It’s misleading/false advertising. Surprised it hasn’t been done yet. That’s not the Walmart parking lot. A simple google earth search puts you down the road by the hotel. You can tell at the 17:01 mark. The hotel is clearly there along with the building on the back side of the snow mound.
Hey Joe, I have been watching Steve Wallis for years now. I think this stealth was cool and you looked like you had so much fun. Congrats on your first stealth. Happy New Year!
*My wife:* I'll book our airfare. Can you find us a place to stay that isn't too expensive? *Me, after watching this video:* Sure thing! I think I've got the perfect place.
This seems incredibly dangerous. Nobody there in case of cave in. No control over what others might do to the pile. I know you survived because the video is posted, but this is frightening.
@@rooster6271 you are much safer in the woods than under a parking lot snow pile, nobody in a skid steer to dump more snow on the pile and collapse it and kill you
This is awesome. Been following both these guys forever. My all stars of Canadian camping. I honestly hope someday you guys both do a video together, but this is got me super excited for now. Thank you Joe!!
Joe... I've been following you for like a decade, but that call and the rant after wasn't necessary. Just you do you, man. We love you for that. Just be glad you've encouraged others to follow the path, and that they are keeping this stuff alive.
The amount of balls this takes it immensely understated. Those things can collapse or if it starts snowing during the night while you're tucked away sleeping, the snow plows can bury you alive while shoving fresh snow on the pile etc.... Mad props Joe.
Calling you out Joe, the walmart at 446 Great northern road (you can see the address in your video) and the Quattro Hotel (identifiable by the purple lights and building) are 1.28K apart (not side by side, nice photoshop making them look side by side) you are clearly digging your tunnel in the back of the hotel & not walmart a quick google street view behind the hotel proves this, Hopefully the hotel room you slept after all the filming in the snow. had a jacuzzi to warm up in.
When I start my career as the phantom walmart snowman constructor, I'm definitely going to let people know you were my inspiration. On the down low, you can't be a phantom and famous at the same time. :)
Awesome change of pace video to start the year with Joe! You and Steve should do a collab video! Non stealthy of course! You could do a dual camp, you with the bushcraft and Steve with the modern man camping approach, Would be super cool!
HAPPY NEW YEAR Joe and your family. I have followed you for quite a few years now. I just love your videos. This one is SOOO different. I was really worried about you. Worried that the snow pile would collapse while you are in it. You and your family keep on staying healthy and safe.
This was really fun to watch, did not expect this but I loved it!! Steve is a great guy, I’ve watched his videos here and there but I always come back for some silly Joe action 🤣 Also - Joe deserves mad respect in this industry, no doubt about it!! Genuinely great human, father, husband, and bushman. Thanks for continuing to just be you Joe! 🌲
That was hilarious Joe. Loved the look/excitement on your face when you were describing what you were about to do. Steve's reaction to hearing you're in a snow bank, and showing your not a parking lot camping elitist! lol. cheers. Happy new year
This is one of the most dangerous things I've ever seen someone do on RUclips. Terrifying, you could get crushed to death if they came in to plow the snow. Possibly in your sleep. This is literally the stupidest and most dangerous thing I have ever seen someone promote on RUclips other than perhaps people who sneak into buildings to dangerously climb them or something, but they at least know what they are doing. You should have mentioned something about how extremely dangerous it was, this video should not be sponsored or monetized either.
Joe, my friend, if you're going to properly "hunker down" and go camping like Steve, you got to remember to have a "Step two" as well, along the way. Like mentioned several times in the comments I Would definitely love to see the two of you do an episode or two or three..together!! Bring Tripper.. if Steve is ok with that!!
Give credit where credits due 💯 I’ve always been an outdoors person, camping, hunting etc.. but I can honestly say YOU are the sole reason I started a RUclips channel🙏 I work a lot so don’t have lots of extra time to make videos unfortunately, but every chance I get I make a video. Been with you since u first started up Joe after your Alone show, lol I was devastated when u lost your ferro rod 🤦🏻♂️ no doubt in my mind you’d of won, but you took that loss and look at you now buddy🙏🙏🙏 God Bless.
I used to build snow forts like this when I was a kid in Ottawa, but I didn't overnight in them! Aren't you guys afraid of getting buried in your snow cave if the snow plow comes along?
My mother always told us if we were gonna do something like this we should have an air horn with a trap release on a string leading in… so if we got buried we could pull on it.
So, the word is that you did not stay in that snow cave, but rather checked into a hotel for the night. Several other survival RUclipsrs have the proof. Perhaps that is why you didn't have much night footage.
He is a fake I am 2 hours from where he dug his hole and my nieces live there and know for sure he did not stay in a Walmart parking lot. Is was a hotel parking lot down the road. Most likely he didn't even spend the night in his hole. He cropped the hotel and Walmart together, when they are over a half mile from each other.
Man this seems so dangerous… No way I would be able to sleep in that igloo as it drip melted on my face all night, just imagining I saw the walls move before the impending doom of burial alive! Every car that drove by I’d imagine was a huge earth mover with a fork coming to shift the pile (and me!). Not happening, I’ll be in the truck! ;)
I like the idea, but in reality it was dangerous, that ice is heavy, look how much work it took to dig that hole. Not making it out in a collapse of 1000lbs on top of you.
@@FriarPop Also, plowed snow is not very clean (salt, oil, dirt). I like the idea of stealth camping but I would have used the snow bank as a screen to sleep outside and out of view.
@@FriarPop no it’s not clearly u guys have never felt a plow pile that’s weeks old it’s solid ice u could ramp a truck on it but even with a plow u couldn’t hit joe of u wanted too trick would stop or flip on top first and we had small fired in igloo we built as kids in -5 it’s not melting and collapsing on you not dangerous at all why do u think some cultures live in igloos

Joe Robinet and Steve Wallis would be the crossover event of the century! These two cinematic universes just collided and my mind is blown. My two favorite outdoors channels by a long shot! You guys are great and thank you.
7 day trip
What is that purple building at about 17 minutes in ?
The hotel he stayed in after digging a hole and pretending he was going to sleep in the snow pile. lol
Aren't you worried about a plow just smashing into that bank and locking you under snow? I used to love playing in and around those piles but I'd be terrified of sleeping in one. Great upload!
That was my first thought also!
He went to the backside. I was thinking I would have parked the truck in front of my spot just to be safe. But those plows would wake you up, they aren't exactly electric...
Those piles are solid ice and huge, the plow wouldnt do anything to the mound at all, especially on the backside
It’s not without its risk, but that risk can be managed with a little research into when the next time the might be plowing… check the forecast for snow and check the parking lot for snow waiting to be plowed …. That being said
Kids don’t try this at home
I was thinking that same thing.
I’d be scared shitless getting buried underneath tonne’s of snow. No thank you sir, glad you lived to tell the story
Can’t lie I though the same thing
exactly what i was thinking and commented
@@johnh.o.n339 I would have my head at the open part
It’s won’t collapse it’s the snow plows that will kill you
oh hell no would I go in there!
Joe and Steve interacting with each other is something I would never guess, but very happy about since I subscribed to both of them.
What's next, a collab with Greg Ovens? That would blow my mind. You Canadian outdoors RUclipsrs are always on top of my entertainment list! 😜
Ovens and Wallis would be a great video, maybe making some crazy contraptions.
@@s_t_i_c_k_y2097 that would be perfect, bet they'd hit it off
It'll never happen...Joe is a fraud and my guess is Steve wants nothing to do with him.l
ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
Steve isn't a phony , so it wouldn't work well with a fraud like joe. he won't even take this video down and apologize for lying to his subscribers. He bashes other RUclipsrs and it turns out he is the loser. His channel will keep losing viewership once people see the evidence of his fraud.
Something is off with this video.
You walked through trees. This was not in a parking lot.
I've never seen a multiple story walmart with purple lights.
Please explain.
That multi-story building is a hotel not wal-mart.
ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
Anyone who has grown up in the Northland has seen snow piles in the parking lots & dreamed of tunneling into them. That was fun to watch your enthusiasm & I enjoyed listening to your conversation with someone who had given you the idea - while giving them credit (Steve). Have a Happy New Year Joe and I look forward to hearing about your upcoming surprise & reveal!
Definitely need a Steve and Joe collab! You two are the only ones I watch regularly in the camping genre of videos here on RUclips.
I love that I'm seeing so many people shout out Steve! He is a great guy and I love his videos. This was so much fun to see you do a stealth camp
Man, so great to witness this interaction between you two. Props for "giving credit where credit is due". I know you made his day. ❤️
Joe doesn’t deserve any credit, he did not stay in the Walmart parking lot at all. He went to a hotel just a mile down the road
@@willjenner9420 honestly, I couldn't care less. My comment was on the humanity and the phone call. Your comment is just useless. I see you have absolutely 0 content on your channel so as I see it, even a video of the so called hotel room woulda been more than I can see you've done. Put the keyboard down and find something you enjoy in life instead of TRYING to bring others down. Sad man. And we CAN go back and forth....ya know, EVERY comment makes this video do better....you do know that, right? As far as that goes, I'd LOVE for you to go give me a negative comment on all my videos. Maybe even click the unlike button on all of them.
This is the craziest urban camping thing I've ever seen. Totally out of my league. I'd feel a lot safer in the back country with bears and wild life than in the Walmart parking lot. Hats off to you
You and Steve need to do a sketchy stealth camp together but each of you build your own camp to see how each would be different. Great video keep of the good work
How about one video of each other "genres". One video of bushcraft and one video of stealth camping. Either with own gears or one of them borrows etc.
@@Saappari or 5 items picked by both for eachother to use as more of a challenge
Yes, team up for a video. Or maybe one stealth and one more traditional over the spring/summer
Joe would school Steve in every way possible. Just saying. I’m mean come on.
ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
I’ve heard stories of kids climbing into snow piles like this and being crushed by snow plows or the piles collapsing 😬 be careful friends. Cool video though
i know someone who’s relative died like that
I have no experience with snow but this looks like a death trap to me, like climbing into a unsupported pit
We use to drive over them as kids I couldn't imagine staying in there
Yeah man this is triggering my anxiety in a huge way. Fyck, who would sleep in that little death trap?
@@truckguy6.7 Joe Robinet
" Do you have an excuse ready", pause, " there is no excuse for this." Love this idea, especially calling Steve who I watch all the time. Thanks, Joe.
I was practicing making a traditional snow shelter for an upcoming winter camping trip.
“Straight up facts!”
Kudos Joe. I started watching you and Shug around the same time, you two are the forefathers of these types of video in my opinion. Cheers for 2022.
Joe, I'm always been a fan of yours. I watched countless of your videos and I am blown away that you give where the credit is due. I am also a big fan of Steve Wallis. You guys needs to make an awesome video together. Canadians rocks. From a a subscriber here in America. God bless to both of you!
I can't believe you didn't think about snow plows accidentally blocking up your exit! My husband and I were watching and saying to each other- oh no what if he gets stuck or someone blocks out the exit! Glad you seemed to enjoy the experience. Thanks.
I was thinking of this too!
I was also worried the pile would collapse at night !! I wonder why Joe even risked it ?
The hazard of a plow blocking the exit is valid, but it seems to me the much bigger danger is collapse of the tunnel onto the person. If the exit were just blocked but not collapsed (meaning you're within a cavity in the snow where there's at least some air and your arms and legs are free to move) you'd have a chance to dig your way out.
But if the snow collapses on you (which wouldn't require an interfering plow, it could just happen spontaneously while you're digging or later), you'd basically be concreted under, unable to move your arms and/or legs, and with no air. Even if a helpful person was right there and saw it happen, they might not be able to dig you out in time.
Not my area of expertise, but I think to safely dig a tunnel (or trench) you need to be continuously installing something to prevent collapse of the roof and sides.
No not on New Years
i believe that's why he chose the side of the hill that wasn't directly off the parking lot.
Hey, can all you guys come together avengers style with a winter camping trip? Like you, Steve, Mav, and outdoor boys?
Mad respect to both you and Steve. Both of you are absolute legends
As a Texan who’s only ever had .5 inches of snow it seems truly terrifying to imagine going in there without constantly thinking the snow pile is going to cave in.
Some months I would love to be down there with you and enjoying the warmth.
Imagine waking up to the snow plow closing you in
I can imagine your imagining. It's not terrifying when you are used to it. It's like learning when it's safe to walk on ice.
As a Canadian who has seen way too much snow, there is no way I would do that. He is a brave fella.
snow is actually suprisingly strong once compressed.
Loved this vid! Funny to see you and Steve on the phone, it’s like the ultimate bushcraft crossover
Walmart does Hotels now?
Joe is where I first discovered the fun of camping, and Steve is where I discovered the fun of stealth camping. Wow this is just awesome!
"Just looking for my car keys over here!" Haha. You're a trooper dude.
Shout out to Joe for inspiring me to get out into the woods and not glamp but hardcore camp! Even my wife loves it! When I take my dog I think of Tripoer and Scout (RIP Skoots Mah-Goots!) your tips and tricks, burps, farts, and funny woops and Joe-isms make this Missouri boy get Oat&Aboat! Thx squirrelly Joe!

Here in western New York we have a Tim's on just about every block, and it's great! After almost 5 years being subscribed to your channel I can say that I respect you a little bit more after this adventure! Thank you for brightening a mundane Thursday.
Steve Wallis: “Do you have an excuse ready?” LOL!
When I tell you this was my childhood dream I am not kidding, couldn't pass one of these without thinking about tunneling out a spot for myself. Shout out Steve Wallis, two solid dudes in one video!
"Do you have any excuse for this?" - it's just fun, isn't that a good enough excuse? Thanks for sharing this parking lot, snow shelter, "first time stealth camping" experience with us. Greetings from Sweden 😊
Joe, Joe, Joe.. From Bushcrafter to Crafty “Busher” one Snowbank at a time! 😮
If I saw you or Steve doing something like this, I'd come and help and maybe buy some gear to join you. I love this type of stuff.
thousands want to camp with steve and joe, not sure they can take all of you with them.
@@jacquelinemarie1078 I'm in the US, so there's that problem.
@@jacquelinemarie1078 ur so negative I looked at your other comments you’re such an internet troll just rude.
I dont think Steve is going to do stealth camping with a fake like Joe! ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
I'm so glad you opened with a call to Steve. Right on Joe for doing this!!!
My claustrophobia kicks into high gear just watching this but I have to see it through. Happy new year to you Joe and Will and girls and the dogs from the West Coast.
Used to camp like this all the time as a kid when I was hunting. I used pine branches instead of mats but basically the same thing. Its alot easier to make when you have 3 people. And you can build a fire in the center with sleeping cubbies in the sides. It melts a layer of snow that turns into ice and adds a bit of insulation. Super fun highly recommended.
Absolute gold! Hommage to the king of stealth, Steve Wallis.
Would be great to see you take him out on a canoe trip.
I've been subbed to Steve since 20k. I absolutely love seeing all the friends and love he's been getting since he's started growing bigger.
Looks like fun Joe! Kids be careful if you try this. I remember back when I was young in my area a kid made a snow cave and it collapsed on him. He didn't survive.
Why doesn't it collapse?
@@AghoraNath They usually don't collapse, but you don't want to be inside one If it does. I live up north where we get plenty of snow. We did everything when we were kids.
Soo... not to be that guy or anything, but are we gonna talk about 17:01 ? The hotel is clearly in the background...that's not a walmart parking lot..I mean I know it's like a 5 month old video at this point but still.
Don’t worry joe no matter how much credit u get just know we all love you follow u and appreciate the incredible videos and advice you have given us over the years
i'd be terrified of that snow crushing me while inside the shelter
Me too!
All my childhood, I was digging igloo from the pile of snow in our backyard, coming from clearing the driveway. Then outer walls.. windows.. And it's nice in there too!
terrified of a hotel? Its fake! ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
Ahhh, Joe! That was, hands down, one of the funniest camping excursions yet. Pulling a Wallis! In a snow bank in a Walmart parking lot! I cracked up when you were getting stealth camping advice and Steve said, "do you have your excuse ready?" LOL Steve has obviously, been there - done that! Great video. Happy New Year to Joe and Steve!
Dude, you’re nowhere near Wal Mart. You’re between a hotel and a bowling alley. Northcrest Bowling Lanes and the Quattro motel. @campingwithsteve
That's some dangerous stuff doing that man. If the snow plows came while you were in there to move the snow around you could have died.
The two camping giants chatting
When a little kid, a kid in our town died digging into a parking lot snow pile. The plow came along and filled him in when he was in there. Viewers be warned. ;)
I'm disappointed that this was videoed not at the Walmart, but next to a parking lot 1.2 miles [edit: kilometers, not miles] from the Walmart. I guess this is the reason for the unusually long stretch without a new video.
Sounds like you're offended, dude it's just entertainment. There is a complaint line call 1-800-who-cares
@@redbear665 lol dude if you have to use the same copy paste comment over and over defending someone, maybe it should make you think about it? everyone understands its "entertainment" but this is clearly different and more like straight up fraud. why you riding his d1ck defending a con artist? shows a lot about the person you are as well if you think this was ok.
I’m so happy that urban stealth camping is becoming a thing. I love the apocalyptic survival aspect to it lol. Still waiting for someone to stealth camp in a junk yard and or in an abandoned building or other places you may hold up if you had no woods in a situation where you have no other options.
Some people who do urbex and/or train surf end up stealth camping in weird places, there's some footage floating around RUclips.
look up Shiey
I'm still waiting for someone to hid in a abandoned building like in the zombie movies
@@DannyOVideos came to say that, I second that
You definitely deserve props, as far as I remember you and corporals corner are the ones that got me out in the woods teaching me almost everything I know. Definitely one of my idols and someone that never lets me down on their videos. Happy new year!
I absolutely agree with giving credit when it is due....and that goes for everything/everywhere in life. This was a fun video...I am quite claustrophobic so it was entertaining living vicariously through you. Happy New Year!!
You nailed it!
Just watched the huntsman......what do you think?
Thanks for inspiring us in Canada to look at snow in a different way Joe and not hate it. You've definitely been an inspiration for me to get outside and share my beautiful part of the world with others. Now if you only had a step two!
This was great to see! Steve Wallis inspired. The most appropriate thing would have been a "step two" inside of a snow bank at Walmart! 😄
Step 2 is what's missing lol
@@Sheepleton Absolutely!
Joe has been exposed. All this time we thought he was in the wild surviving off the land and he has been camping out in Wal-Mart parking lots! Haha. Love the idea and all the different content you provide.
he has been exposed. i dont understand why he felt the need to lie about being in a walmart parking lot. im not saying he didnt sleep in the snow pile but it was next to a hotel and not at the wm
@@doc59 this comment needs more upvotes so he addresses it
@@bcsushi91 it’s unfortunate. I really enjoyed his stuff. I just don’t get the motivation for the lie. It’s not like he promised it so he had to pretend. I mean he could’ve even said in the video that there wasn’t a good enough pile at WM so he found a spot in another lot. Just makes you wonder what other videos he’s fabricated.
Joe's always wanted to be like Bear Grylls...a liar. He's now achieved that status. Saying he's in the WM parking lot when he's at the Quattro Hotel 1.4km down the road.
@@thejasonbourne and the longer he takes to address it the more I doubt that he stayed in that snow pile
I may be a little late to the party but You should rename this video. It’s misleading/false advertising. Surprised it hasn’t been done yet. That’s not the Walmart parking lot. A simple google earth search puts you down the road by the hotel. You can tell at the 17:01 mark. The hotel is clearly there along with the building on the back side of the snow mound.
He also has the hotel right there in his thumbnail smh 🤦
Hey Joe, I have been watching Steve Wallis for years now. I think this stealth was cool and you looked like you had so much fun. Congrats on your first stealth. Happy New Year!
Love this video. Huge fan of Joe and Steve. You two should stealth together and bushcraft as well. Best of both worlds
*My wife:* I'll book our airfare. Can you find us a place to stay that isn't too expensive?
*Me, after watching this video:* Sure thing! I think I've got the perfect place.
ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
What a great idea! Cool that you called Steve and chatted with him. Glad you had fun it was fun watching you.
This seems incredibly dangerous. Nobody there in case of cave in. No control over what others might do to the pile. I know you survived because the video is posted, but this is frightening.
Sometimes you gotta say F it and just live a little. People climb mountains, sky dive, even playing sports is dangerous.
This was hard to watch
I was thinking at least a garden hose in case of cave-in.
@@rooster6271 you are much safer in the woods than under a parking lot snow pile, nobody in a skid steer to dump more snow on the pile and collapse it and kill you
Yep, these cave in often and trap / kill people.
YESSSS, Best "Collab" ever! Love Steve's stealth camping and, Joe stealth camping is the greatest new years opener!
This is awesome. Been following both these guys forever. My all stars of Canadian camping. I honestly hope someday you guys both do a video together, but this is got me super excited for now. Thank you Joe!!
Would you have posa with them!!??
Joe... I've been following you for like a decade, but that call and the rant after wasn't necessary. Just you do you, man. We love you for that. Just be glad you've encouraged others to follow the path, and that they are keeping this stuff alive.
I can just picture a couple kids finding the cave the next day. "Hey check this out. AWESOME!" Great vid Joe! Hunker down!
I love this Joe and Happy new year everyone, it is nice to see Steve inspiring people to get outside and do things.
ruclips.net/video/fDLRwXFXf-o/видео.html
The amount of balls this takes it immensely understated. Those things can collapse or if it starts snowing during the night while you're tucked away sleeping, the snow plows can bury you alive while shoving fresh snow on the pile etc....
Mad props Joe.
Calling you out Joe, the walmart at 446 Great northern road (you can see the address in your video) and the Quattro Hotel (identifiable by the purple lights and building) are 1.28K apart (not side by side, nice photoshop making them look side by side) you are clearly digging your tunnel in the back of the hotel & not walmart a quick google street view behind the hotel proves this, Hopefully the hotel room you slept after all the filming in the snow. had a jacuzzi to warm up in.
Sounds like you're offended, dude it's just entertainment. There is a complaint line call 1-800-who-cares
Damn...
The only two main camping channels I watch all the time! What an awesome way to start the year! Happy new years to both of you!
Try out some Greg ovens he's good too
When I start my career as the phantom walmart snowman constructor, I'm definitely going to let people know you were my inspiration. On the down low, you can't be a phantom and famous at the same time. :)
Awesome change of pace video to start the year with Joe! You and Steve should do a collab video! Non stealthy of course! You could do a dual camp, you with the bushcraft and Steve with the modern man camping approach, Would be super cool!
This was the most wholesome thing I've seen in ages!
Hunker down, Joe!
HAPPY NEW YEAR Joe and your family. I have followed you for quite a few years now. I just love your videos. This one is SOOO different. I was really worried about you. Worried that the snow pile would collapse while you are in it. You and your family keep on staying healthy and safe.
This was really fun to watch, did not expect this but I loved it!! Steve is a great guy, I’ve watched his videos here and there but I always come back for some silly Joe action 🤣
Also - Joe deserves mad respect in this industry, no doubt about it!! Genuinely great human, father, husband, and bushman. Thanks for continuing to just be you Joe! 🌲
That was hilarious Joe. Loved the look/excitement on your face when you were describing what you were about to do. Steve's reaction to hearing you're in a snow bank, and showing your not a parking lot camping elitist! lol. cheers. Happy new year
This is one of the most dangerous things I've ever seen someone do on RUclips. Terrifying, you could get crushed to death if they came in to plow the snow. Possibly in your sleep. This is literally the stupidest and most dangerous thing I have ever seen someone promote on RUclips other than perhaps people who sneak into buildings to dangerously climb them or something, but they at least know what they are doing. You should have mentioned something about how extremely dangerous it was, this video should not be sponsored or monetized either.
Joe, my friend, if you're going to properly "hunker down" and go camping like Steve, you got to remember to have a "Step two" as well, along the way.
Like mentioned several times in the comments I Would definitely love to see the two of you do an episode or two or three..together!! Bring Tripper.. if Steve is ok with that!!
THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!
I actually wanna see Steve, Joe, and Lone Wolf celeb together.

Give credit where credits due 💯 I’ve always been an outdoors person, camping, hunting etc.. but I can honestly say YOU are the sole reason I started a RUclips channel🙏 I work a lot so don’t have lots of extra time to make videos unfortunately, but every chance I get I make a video. Been with you since u first started up Joe after your Alone show, lol I was devastated when u lost your ferro rod 🤦🏻♂️ no doubt in my mind you’d of won, but you took that loss and look at you now buddy🙏🙏🙏 God Bless.
I've always wanted to build snow forts in the Walmart parking since I was a kid this has filled that void! Thank you joe!
I love how chuffed you are to talk to Steve. A real Canadian RUclips legend :)
I used to build snow forts like this when I was a kid in Ottawa, but I didn't overnight in them! Aren't you guys afraid of getting buried in your snow cave if the snow plow comes along?
Hey cat your the only one with brains here
My mother always told us if we were gonna do something like this we should have an air horn with a trap release on a string leading in… so if we got buried we could pull on it.
@@jenearly7623 your mom is a smart lady
It would be cool if you and Steve could do a dual stealth camp trip. Love the videos man.
that would be fun @jeffery stephens
So, the word is that you did not stay in that snow cave, but rather checked into a hotel for the night. Several other survival RUclipsrs have the proof. Perhaps that is why you didn't have much night footage.
It's not the first time one of his videos have been exposed as fake
Truth
He is a fake I am 2 hours from where he dug his hole and my nieces live there and know for sure he did not stay in a Walmart parking lot. Is was a hotel parking lot down the road. Most likely he didn't even spend the night in his hole. He cropped the hotel and Walmart together, when they are over a half mile from each other.
@@neallockman5299 oh yea? What others? This guy is a joke to me now but I’m curious what other BS he’s faked
Anyone else notice Joe rocking the Gucci belt? Lol styling and profiling.
Joe is straight up Gangsta!
its all about the views....
Man this seems so dangerous… No way I would be able to sleep in that igloo as it drip melted on my face all night, just imagining I saw the walls move before the impending doom of burial alive! Every car that drove by I’d imagine was a huge earth mover with a fork coming to shift the pile (and me!). Not happening, I’ll be in the truck! ;)
I like the idea, but in reality it was dangerous, that ice is heavy, look how much work it took to dig that hole. Not making it out in a collapse of 1000lbs on top of you.
@@FriarPop
Also, plowed snow is not very clean (salt, oil, dirt). I like the idea of stealth camping but I would have used the snow bank as a screen to sleep outside and out of view.
@@FriarPop no it’s not clearly u guys have never felt a plow pile that’s weeks old it’s solid ice u could ramp a truck on it but even with a plow u couldn’t hit joe of u wanted too trick would stop or flip on top first and we had small fired in igloo we built as kids in -5 it’s not melting and collapsing on you not dangerous at all why do u think some cultures live in igloos
