Winter Wonderland: Polish Lavvu Hot Tent Camping in the Snow
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- My first night out in a Polish Lavvu Hot Tent , so excited to be making this one as have wanted to do this for several years. At home in the warm, looking out of the window its hard to motivate myself to go camping, especially with freezing December weather and snow forecast had some doubts if I would be comfortable and this lead to taking way to much clothing and bedding.
Was on a bit of a learning curve with my new Winnerwell titanium tent stove, but it all went well and am now better prepared for next time.
I gave an honest review of the stove here, bought with my own money-

Great to see the stove in action in the lavvu, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for taking the time to comment Jim, happy to hear you enjoyed this one👍👍
Looks like that little stove is plenty big enough for a small lavvu. The only thing it is missing is a glass window ... I love the glow in the door glass panel of my pomoly T1 mini ... but that stove weighs in at 2.4kg..
Thanks for taking us along!
Yes, can imaging a glass door would be fantastic, surprising how much glow comes out of the stove though even without glass, very cozy😀
Me encantó tu video amigo... Te envio un fuerte abrazo desde argentina y por favor sigue con estos videos tan simples y hermosos... 👽
Certainly will, and thanks for taking a look.👍
one important saftey feature i thought you may have mentioned did you have a co detector it is a must in a hot tent and a lamp they give of nasty fumes...good video
Yes did have it with me in the tent, it went right out of my head to mention it though, to excited I guess
I use a Gloy's Heat Pal 5000 or Origo 5100 alcohol heater and cook stove no stack needed.
Interesting, will give them a look, thanks for the heads up👍
Great snowy camp Mark. Makes the camp very atmospheric methinks. Think you’re having great success with the stove. I agree that, albeit smaller than most, it is very suitable for smaller tents like the Polish Lavvu which seem to get overly warm sometimes with bigger stoves when I watch other YT videos. Cheers 😊👍
Agree Giles, its just perfect, if I was to get too hot and cozy would never want to get out of it. Just right for staying warm and keeping the chill off during these colder tempatures we are getting
Beautiful vedio 👍
Thank you👍
Very nice 👌 😊
Thanks, possible snow next week, a few inches would be great.👍
Hi mate, a great stove must get one. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, much appreciated👍👍
Great set up enjoy 👍🐿️
Thank you Mike👍👍
Hey pal you could use the bit off a keyring to keep them pipe rings safe.
Good idea, that would do it😀👍
Just saw your stove film and now this one. Great set up. Id love to try hot tenting my lavvu.
Thanks for watching, its a very cozy setup and can highly recomend trying it👍😀
Very good show thanks
Fantastic to hear you enjoyed it Willis, thanks for watching👍
I'm watching this to see if I would ever want to put a hot stove in a nylon tent. The latest Nortent Vern 2 comes with the option of a stove jack at one end for £20 more. The USP of such a tent is its resilience in high winds. Not sure I'd want to risk a chimney over a nylon tent in 35mph wind
Most of the stoves come with spark arresters so rare for a live spark to come out of the top, though a few escape I am sure. No one shows hot tent camping in strong winds, I have tried it however. With everything flapping, chimney bending alarmingly and pegs pulling out of the ground, you are right to be concerned about that. It`s dangerous! They are better suited to the shelter of the woods, for that they are brilliant.
@@mark.a.cornishyep, that makes sense. And there's plenty of wood around
Fell on to this video because I'm looking for a solution for the stove jack. Think I'm gonna do the same, I dont want to modify the lavvu too much.
Same, kept mine original. It gets pretty hot in that area so you do need something to keep the canvas away from the chimney. Thanks for taking a look👍
Ya know, robins don't visit those with dark hearts or minds...you musta done good...They love a bit of seed in the hand btw, if you visit the place again.
Ya know, i'm really tempted by that stove, 300 tho is steep, Especially as I wanna couple it with a dd xl superlight in a tipi configuration with add on stove jack panel for a half door cover. But man it looks cosy, and that luxury, and efficiency...what to do. what to do.
Thats good to know. Yeah the stove is great, dont have a bad thing to say about it, but all titanium stoves are expensive, this one is a bit cheaper because its smaller but fit my purposes exactly. If you wait a while will be trying out some fixes for my homemade stove, now thats super cheap and I will get it to work one way or another.
Thanks for the video. Just wondering what did you use to hold up those three branches for the tent?
I have a stove like that and I am glad you explained how to role up that chimney pipe! 🌷
I used a tennis ball with an inch cut off the bottom, seemed a cheap and simple way to do it but you can get 3d printed things and also a leather gismo from etsy makers if you search about. My set up using a rope for perfect pitch every time is explained in this video- ruclips.net/video/TuO15LQfyEU/видео.html Hope that helps👍
Worked a charm! I’d be tempted to stay there with those temperatures from the stove, a lot warmer than my house and cheaper to maintain energy, how did the heat bracket do, did it stay cool/warm and not damage the tent?
I kept an eye on it during the night and it did get pretty hot at times so there is a good reason to use those two forked branches with notchs to keep the canvas from touching the heat protector sleeve. Of course every time you move that side of the lavvu getting in or out you have to check and re-do it if needed so bit of a pain at times. Buttoning up for night nights also disturbs it so can understand why people start upgrading their Lavvus. Front zips, stove jacks, adding skirts for more height ect loads of ideas out there to improve them but I kind of like it as standard with all its little quirks.😁👍
@@mark.a.cornish it will be an issue with my pup tent wonder if you can buy those silver heat proof patches for canvas, plenty to think about 👍👍👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman you can get stove jacks fairly cheaply, think I have seen them for around £15 or so, but you will have to sew them in, hand sewing would be ok I should think, if a little time consuming
Please, told me were you buy this lavuu, you have a link?
They are Polish army surplus, mine was new/old stock made in 1977, still had the manufacturing ticket on it so you will have to search around for an original one. Looks like Military Mart have some second hand ones, and also sells a canvas reproduction as good as the original here- www.militarymart.co.uk/collections/lavvu-tipi/products/polish-army-dome-tent-lavvu-teepee?variant=42209761984732 Hope that helps
Great video, what stove is it please
Put a link to the website I got it from in the description of this video: ruclips.net/video/-eLnKQcsxjQ/видео.html👍
@@mark.a.cornish thanks
With reference to the opening shot..be excited to be a bloody idiot 😄
Thanks Sonja, glad I went but a lot of people will think bloody idiot, guess I`ve always been that way😲👍👍
