  • I'm hot tent camping alone in the woods in snow and extreme cold. Temperatures reach -26°F at night while I cook steak over a wood stove. All things outdoors in all seasons is what this channel is about.

You’re right, with the right gear, it wasn’t bad at all, just not much sleep feeding that fire every hour. Thank you so much for going back and watching some of my previous videos!

    I always have a closed cell foam pad with a reflective layer under my insulated sleeping pad, with a wool blanket on top of those. Not sure if you’ve tried that, but it does help in extreme cold here in Canada. I also have a fleece bag liner and an extra wool blanket to pull over my sleeping bag if necessary. When it’s going to be killer cold, I use two down bags layered.

    • @oldsouthernpine
      @oldsouthernpine  6 месяцев назад +1

      Hi Miss Donna, that’s a very good question! Typically, if the snow was deep, I would either shovel it out or pack it down before pitching. The snow we have isn’t deep and after a few swipes with my foot to try and clear it out, it wasn’t doing much so I went ahead and pitched directly on what little was there. What was under the insulated and inflatable mattress would give me just a little more insulation from the ground and what was open and around the stove would melt off throughout the night. Thank you so much for watching and reaching out! I always enjoy hearing from you!

    • @oldsouthernpine
      @oldsouthernpine  6 месяцев назад +1

      Hi Mr Phillips, that’s a great question! I know a lot of folks are big on ground sheets and I use them all the time in boggy conditions. When it’s this cold and the humidity this low, a ground sheet doesn’t do much, in my opinion. The snow under the mattress stays frozen and adds a little extra insulation from the frozen ground and the snow around the stove either turns to ice or burns off just leaving the frozen ground behind it. Dogs are the best! Thank you so much for watching and reaching out, my friend!
