Back in the day…. When I was in the military…. I went through Cold Weather Survival training up in Alaska. We had to ford through an almost freezing river, then, while shaking uncontrollably, learn to build a fire and dry ourselves and our clothes. We also were made to dig a foxhole in decent snowpack, shown to cover the entrance with a poncho liner (thin blanket), then lit a small tea candle at bottom. I swear it got up to 80 degrees in that hole! I had to take clothing off it was that warm! This video brought back a lot of memories! Thanks Steve! Great content!!
A tea candle isn't going to make a snow cave 80° lol I'm willing to bet your body just found the best alternative to compensate outside a freezing river to make you feel that way. I've done many polar plunges and winter primitive camping. The human body does what it has to to make sure you're mental acuity keeps you focused on what's necessary, not what's wanted.
@@fireboxstovehey bro I have a question for ya if that’s ok? I’ve been fighting trying to make a fire for years now. I get plenty of smoke, but NEVER do I get any coals. Or the coals aren’t orange. I’ve even used an electric drill for a proof of concept to myself. Any tips or advice? I’ve seen your video on fire starting.
Steve thank you for all the effort you put into building these amazing Firebox products and the passion you have on growing this community. Super pumped for this video and thanks for the email you sent out about it 🤙
I'm from Pakistan gilgit baltistan sakardu khapolu siachein villy near of k2 mountain 🗻🗻 see you r video beautiful view beautiful amazing 🤩😍 keep it up good work 👍🇵🇰
Waw - so great trip - view - experiment - spending adventure times. Wish you all the best in your life and god bless you all the time where ever you are.
Very hibernational and inspirational video. I would say the downed tree cave combo is excellent protection from a large Moose crashing through at 2:00 am. This has happened and the hooves past a campers head by a few inches. A few critters in a old tree is nothing compared to a 1200 pound non-wake up call. Thanks for sharing. Cheers! (with standing ovation).
@@fireboxstove Snow shelters in Alaska are built with felled trees supporting the roof, to protect against wondering Moose, from above. The more solid the better. Cheers!
@@fireboxstove I really fell in love with your patience and how you tame those animals...they just listen to your words en they follow👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 keep it up am watching everything.
Ha... As always with the British and our cups of tea's on the regular... Here's Steve with his "coffee time" on the regular and always! Long may it last mate... what ever the weather! Awesome vid Steve... as always pal.
I'm glad to see you willing to go into the winter on a solo overnight. I like winter camping (no bugs). I got a 5 "ti a couple months ago and I've been loving it. I only wish I had gotten all basic the accessories from the start. I feel the need to get the extended grill and boil plate to round out the kit. I've used a competitor's smaller version for morning coffee. But your 5" version is a much simpler set up, cleaner break down, and actually folds flatter than my smaller one. Nowadays I only use yours because I can raise the base for a smaller fire for coffee but can also get good coals for a meal when needed. And I don't feel like coals will escape to the dirt and start a root fire underground, which happened with the competitor's. I'm glad I realized there was underground smoldering before it could turn into a big problem. Your gear shows how much thought you've put into making an interactive system rather than just individual pieces of gear. Anyway, thanks for the content. Be well.
Thank you so much for all the thoughtful insight I'm so glad you're enjoying your firebox gear 😎👍 if you leave a note on your order that Steve said to give you 20% off then my customer service specialist will refund you for that amount a day or two after the order. That way you can get the other things you were considering 👍😎
It's ok Steve, I get so dang excited I was all ready to take my lunch break when it comes on 😌 ,So....... I will get ahold of my Saturday chores done early so nothing will disturb me 😊 again I pour out as well how thankful I am for what you do Steve and all that you go through to make the videos so grateful stay strong and keep them coming 🙏❤️
Steve: I just stumbled across your channel a few minutes ago. I really enjoyed this adventure. I'll be watching more of your videos in the future. Thank you for sharing.
What an adventure. That tin foil idea was very slick and worked out well. That wool blanket was pretty nice also. Glad it worked out. Another good stove product too. Thanks and take care, Al
Dang Steve, I decided to get something else for cooking but I feel like I need to get a firebox too just to show support for your awesome videos. Thanks for sharing this! About the best way you could ever advertise your products!
Thank you so much for the kind words Logan. Firebox stoves are fun. I just try to capture some of that on video. I really appreciate you're thoughtful feedback 👍😎
I am currently rewatching this one, because its in the 90°s here in SC and i just want to flop down into all that snow and liten to the "hsssssss" as it melts from my poor overheated body (and yes, i know, its a lot hotter elsewhere!)! This is one my favorite of your videos, always!
Looks like fun. Awesome video, it reminds me of my snow camping days, sitting in a cave above the trees on the NE slopes of Mt. Hood, listening to Jazz from WSU in Pullman, Washington, on a little transistor radio. For many years it was an annual New Years Eve adventure. Good times. Some side thoughts; There are harnesses you can buy that make pulling that Pulk a lot easier, check out Skipulk. For some time now, in dry weather, I have been using a DiversiTech 18 X 18" flame blanket under my Nano and the Gen2, It can withstand 3000 degree temps. In an emergency it can wrap up around the stove to help shutting it down, it is heavier than foil, but more durable. It is used as a flame guard when welding near wood or other combustibles. You will never get a fire hot enough to burn through it and it won't rip or tear. Steve, Thanks for your products and videos, I've been enjoying them. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
Thank you for the very valuable info! For me the foil was to make easy clean up. But the blanket sounds very handy for many scenarios 👍😎 Cheers my friend!
Looking forward to it Steve!! Your videos are always a must-watch on my list. When a new one comes out, I often spend lunch watching it the day you post it. I'll try and get on to watch live tomorrow.
@@fireboxstove Another great Firebox adventure with Steve and a bonus chat session! Thanks for all you do Steve, you really inspire us to get out more and have our own adventures.❄❄❄
you got my vote with the aeropress coffee maker. no sense depriving yourself of the best brew possible. BTW the shelter was a challenging one, not sure I would have thought or tried that. cheers, enjoyed the clip.
Steve your egg's would of been fine if you put them closer to the fire! And maybe turned them a couple time's! I think what you accomplished here is above superb!!! Right on for effort and Accomplishments!!! You sure thought all this out!!! I must say you look like You've lost weight! Trim and slim indeed!!! I look forward to another outing with the animal's! It's been too long!!! Ash, Jenny, Levi And Bill! They are missed! 🤗🤗🤗
Steve🖐️ what an over excited Fan I am! All IS Good! I didn't think forward time ! it premieres at 11 am here Dang!! I got up had coffee turned on the channel and that's what it said 11am I went in to action got all my chores done now I'm sitting here waiting for the premier to start I'm way ahead of the game LOL!!! ❤️🙏
You are really fortunate to get snow like that.Where I live if it people see a snowflake they get aggrivated.I tell people Winter is my fav time of year and they look at me all disgusted.😆The Freestyle has become one of my fav stoves.Thanks for sharing.❄️
That's awesome. It's great to hear you are enjoying your Freestyle! Ya, Utah was needing this moisture big time. Now just a few more years of it and we'll hopefully see it affect our lake levels. We are thankful for it.
Your video was great to watch and brought back GREAT memories. Tell me how great that cup of coffee and hot breakfast is in the morning. I do enjoy winter camping to this day. Have had the honor in the past of being a Wnter Mountaineering Instructor for the National Ski Patrol for 7 years. Great group to work with and the largest winter rescue organizatin in the nation. One suggestion: I carry a waterproof bag that I put my boots in and then place them at the bottom of my sleeping bag. That way they are warm and not frozen in the morning and much better for the snowshoeing back out.
That's a great tip! I put hand warmers in my boots with the mittens on top while I slept that extra 2 hours. The hand warmers didn't make my boots warm but I'm sure they were a lot less cold. Thanks so much for the awesome comment!
Wow! I live in Hakata, and surprised that you cooked stake with a japanese HAKATA spice! smokey foods look delicious. Steave, thank you for the video, amaging "10°F Snow Selter Camping"! I want to experience and get a skill in snow season with my firefox stove.
That's awesome! I didn't realize that Hakata was a place. I would love to come visit sometime. I thoroughly enjoyed the last time I was able to go to Japan and have wanted to go back to show my family. Thanks so much for your kind comment.
What a wonderful night in your snow shelter and good food to top it all off, life doesn't get much better than that! I have three of your stoves and just love them. :) :) Thanks for sharing.
Steve I just wanted to add here in SC we don't get that much snow to be able to experience that wonderful overnight camp so I'm grateful to get to experience it through your lens maybe one day I'll make it to where the snow lies deep and I can experience it in real time, thank you for all that you went through to bring it to us through your lens ❤️🙏 I'll be waiting on the next one till then stay safe and stay strong out there✋
ello! I worked at the Marine Mountain Warfare Training Center in the sierra nevada mountains where they trained for winter and summer survival. Sat in on training sessions but never snow camped. Got to do that. they said a candle made all the difference in temp and the entrance was lower than the sleeping platform! Your sleep system looks comfortable. Northing like natural products like wool and down good job!
Hello Steve, nice shelter build along with great food on the firebox👍👍👍. The goats, dogs, and especially Ash glad their at home by the fire😁. Hope you and your family are doing well. Take care my friend. 🇺🇲🌲🔥🔪
You should look into building a “Smitty Sled” as opposed to that friction robbing palk! Your snow journeys will be a lot less energy consuming having a container up on waxed skies with less touching the snow!! You will be amazed at how much of a difference it makes! Have your rope constraints built into one inch plastic pipe crisscrossed fastened to a waist harness so the sled doesn’t get away from you going down hill!! The video was excellent as always!!!! Snug as a bug!!!!!
Talk about 'stealth camping': it can't get any better than this snow season tutorial! The table is a key, along with the stove, to provide a hot meal. We then can BRING OUR OWN HEAT through metabolism to sustain our body temperature through the night. (Of course, the high R-value clothing is also key!)
Miscalculated Mountain Time to Eastern, but loved the replay. I guess people don't need carbs for energy. That was some high protein eating. I swear I could taste the smoky flavor while watching you eat.
Pretty cool video. Really like that new freestyle stove. I got the original firebox stove. Modified it to have a side feed port. Always love your cooking videos. And with the snow cave survival..really fun and interesting.
I've watched a lot of these types of videos and I must say that I really enjoyed this one very much.....I'd put it in the top 10 for this type......maybe even top 5......and you have a new subscriber too...
This was a very different approach for you. Loved it. And, oh yes, I finally have the Hataka Spice and I love it. Very flavorful, but still not overpowering. I'll definitely be ordering more! I use it on everything.
I thought I might have to do that a couple times. Once on Timpanogos, and another time on Mt.Shasta. Fortunately I was able to track myself back before dark. Always testing the limits.
Thanks Winston! It could have been and gets a lot colder than what I endured but it was a fun experiment to Get an idea of what's possible for potential survival scenarios
Well done! Just a thot... b4 snow, look for a good deadfall with overhanging branches for snow support so you dont get buried alive first. Then with heavy snow go do that again. A more level spot might be better, too. Did you turn those eggs? They looked raw on one side. Yeah, brown eggs to absorb the radiant heat. Still have my original Firebox and a couple of mini's along with my Optimus 8R and SVEA 123R. Yup. They all still work! And I still use them (there are some places that dont allow fires, so the stoves) Stay Warm!! Jerry
Thanks Jerry! Sounds like good advice. I did turn those eggs a couple times. I should have put them right into the hot coals at some point. Not really sure though that's the first time I've tried that method. If you get them too hot they might crack. I'll try again 👍😎
Great video. When I put on that many clothes , I usually have to pee . It was nice seeing your flop on the eggs. So many only show the highlights. I've learned a lot from my mistakes.
While you did, indeed, survive the night, the glamour cooking, food processing table, bacon, coffe press and lets not forget the... asparragus... kind of made it look not su much survival and maybe more of glamping... But hey! Good video! PD: I need to get me a set of those puffy pants, look comfy. Mikel
"Beef" and "Asparagus" at Hakata Spice
are the best~★😊👍
I'm always watching from Japan👀!! !
👌
That's awesome, thank you!! Yes, Hakata Spice is the best! 😊

You still had gloves didn't you?
Did you have a fire in the snow cave or was it 80 degrees on its own?

One of my favorite videos! Loved seeing the winter camping and loved the snow cave.
Thank you Lynn!
Wow, that's a bit of snow. And doing all the set up with bare hands. That steak was mouthwatering. Thank you for another great video.
My core was warmed up from all the work. My hands were just fine until the son started going down.
glad you made it without freezing to death; I'll stick to my cozy bed under my down comforter :)
Yeah, my bed is pretty comfortable and cozy too! Kind of hard too take the leap but I'm glad I did 👍😎
So Beautiful sharing my friend ❤stay blessed cemented my friend
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it

Thank you Rob! I appreciate the kind words!
looks like a super fun trip...one question...no dogs or goats this time? LOL! ;-)
My dogs would not have enjoyed 10 ft deep snow And I don't think the goats would have made it very far either. Thanks!
@@fireboxstove agreed on both accounts!!
Waw - so great trip - view - experiment - spending adventure times.

Thank you Yaser, your words are appreciated!! We wish you the best as well, have fun!
I love slow cooked meat. It always seems more tender and juicier. Your gear has certainly improved over time! That table is so convenient and sturdy.
Thanks so much, that table is a prototype that I'm hoping will be able to offer soon. Still working out some production bugs.
ME Too!!!! CANT WAIT!!!!! 😊

I just find out your channel and you got a subcriber following you from the Netherlands, thanks for the videos. 🤗All the best !! 👊
Thank you forwatching from the Netherlands, your support is appreciated! 😁
Always enjoy watching your videos ❤
Thank you, that's awesome to hear and very appreciated!
Hello Steve, nice shelter build along with great food on the firebox👍👍👍. The goats, dogs, and especially Ash glad their at home by the fire😁. Hope you and your family are doing well. Take care my friend. 🇺🇲🌲🔥🔪
Thank you Jason!
You should look into building a “Smitty Sled” as opposed to that friction robbing palk! Your snow journeys will be a lot less energy consuming having a container up on waxed skies with less touching the snow!! You will be amazed at how much of a difference it makes! Have your rope constraints built into one inch plastic pipe crisscrossed fastened to a waist harness so the sled doesn’t get away from you going down hill!! The video was excellent as always!!!! Snug as a bug!!!!!
Yes! I should do that! I think I have an old pair of skis I could use 👍😎👊 Thank you for the suggestion!
This one was great👍
Thanks Nicholas!
Talk about 'stealth camping': it can't get any better than this snow season tutorial! The table is a key, along with the stove, to provide a hot meal. We then can BRING OUR OWN HEAT through metabolism to sustain our body temperature through the night. (Of course, the high R-value clothing is also key!)
Yes, this is all very true!! Thank you for the comment James! 😊
Miscalculated Mountain Time to Eastern, but loved the replay. I guess people don't need carbs for energy. That was some high protein eating. I swear I could taste the smoky flavor while watching you eat.
Lol! I did eat a big apple fritter right before I started hiking 👍😎 Thanks so much!

Pretty cool video. Really like that new freestyle stove. I got the original firebox stove. Modified it to have a side feed port. Always love your cooking videos. And with the snow cave survival..really fun and interesting.
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate your support over the years 👍😎
Love your content, greetings from Macedonia 🇲🇰
Thank you very much for watching from Macedona!
Best part of camping is good eats
We would have to completely agree with you there!!
I've watched a lot of these types of videos and I must say that I really enjoyed this one very much.....I'd put it in the top 10 for this type......maybe even top 5......and you have a new subscriber too...
Thank you Dale!! So great to hear your feedback and that you enjoyed the video. Happy to have you.
@@fireboxstove I've watched several others since...I like the style of the videos....very good.
This was a very different approach for you. Loved it. And, oh yes, I finally have the Hataka Spice and I love it. Very flavorful, but still not overpowering. I'll definitely be ordering more! I use it on everything.
Nice! Thanks Susan!
Always love watching your videos and am going to get one of your stoves you make them look amazing
Thanks Wanda here's a video that may help you decide which stove would be best for you:

Hard core man!💪🏽 Cool trip!
Thank you, it was fun to finally get out in a winter shelter!
I thought I might have to do that a couple times. Once on Timpanogos, and another time on Mt.Shasta. Fortunately I was able to track myself back before dark. Always testing the limits.
Sounds familiar Dave I hope those limits don't bite us one of these days. Living on the edge makes it just a little funner
gorgeous!!
Thank you Darrell!
What I'd term, Extreme Survival, with that snow cave! Sure it was colder tho, above. Glad you survived.
Thanks Winston! It could have been and gets a lot colder than what I endured but it was a fun experiment to Get an idea of what's possible for potential survival scenarios
Well done! Just a thot... b4 snow, look for a good deadfall with overhanging branches for snow support so you dont get buried alive first. Then with heavy snow go do that again. A more level spot might be better, too. Did you turn those eggs? They looked raw on one side. Yeah, brown eggs to absorb the radiant heat. Still have my original Firebox and a couple of mini's along with my Optimus 8R and SVEA 123R. Yup. They all still work! And I still use them (there are some places that dont allow fires, so the stoves) Stay Warm!! Jerry
Thanks Jerry! Sounds like good advice. I did turn those eggs a couple times. I should have put them right into the hot coals at some point. Not really sure though that's the first time I've tried that method. If you get them too hot they might crack. I'll try again 👍😎
Neat snow pants!
Thanks, they are military surplus 👍
Oh no! I just ate dinner, it wasn't too shabby, but I'm hungry all over again! 😀👍
Lol ya that can happen! Time for another good meal?! 😉
Great video. When I put on that many clothes , I usually have to pee . It was nice seeing your flop on the eggs. So many only show the highlights. I've learned a lot from my mistakes.
Thanks Anthony!
Steak looks so good
Thank you, it turned out delicious!!
👍 Awesome video!
Thanks so much Jeff!
Fun video
Thanks so much Tim!
While you did, indeed, survive the night, the glamour cooking, food processing table, bacon, coffe press and lets not forget the... asparragus... kind of made it look not su much survival and maybe more of glamping... But hey! Good video!
PD: I need to get me a set of those puffy pants, look comfy.
