Your eyes tell a story of their own!!! Hot Toddy"s are the bomb baby!!! Keep living your Dash!!! - Davey. P.S. The shot of Hugo covered in snow, chewing a tree trunk, is wall art!
Keenan & Ashley this again was a fantastic adventure in the great outdoors! What an amazing setup it looks so cozy and warm. The steaks and bacon frying up over that nice stove...so cool! Hugo was hilarious helping carry wood back and forth. What wonderful memories the two of you will have to look back on.
I bought myself the exact same 14" chainsaw for Christmas with the same intentions in mind. The days are short enough when out there camping in winter, who wants to spend it all cutting wood when you can be exploring or ice fishing!! Awesome video guys!!
Great video! Snowtrekkers are great tents. One tip for easier setup is to remove the bottom segment of the 4 corner poles so that the ridge pole is lower. Makes it easier to toss the tent over the frame.
Hey guy’s, thanks for allowing us to take part in your adventures! My 2 sons and I were inspired by the winter tarp camping episode but I think I like the hot tent set up waaaay better! Great work on the video, audio, drone shots and music. Keep ‘‘em coming!
A very enjoyable watch and great setup! My best sleeps ever were in insulated winter tents in 3 star Woods sleeping bags in north saskatchewan back in the 80s. Great to see new lightweight gear and the enjoyment you are experiencing.
It must be rewarding to do all your research, and homework, and have it pay off in the long run? Even the Dogs had a good time. Thanks for sharing Keenan. Cheers to the Hot Toddy!
Those two dogs always seem to have a good time in the snow. It is certainly a good feeling when it all comes together. More hot toddy’s to come my friend 🍻
Absolutely a whole new level of comfort! We wanted to say we really like the quote in your logo about positive attitude. Couldn’t agree with you anymore.
Love the channel! You both are so sweet and great together as a team....and meant for each other. Hope you both have many many more great adventures together and keep putting out the great videos....God bless and safe travels
I see so many bushcrafters using their Agawa Canyon Boreal hand saws to cut wood. I think your idea of a small chain saw is the way to go. One or two litres of gas and some chain oil and you can cut a lot of wood real quick. Even the battery electric saws seem pretty good. Your wife Ashley is a trooper...sounds like she may be British perhaps. Nice tent and wood stove.
Awesome video guys. You both make a fantastic team together. Thats what I enjoy so much when I watch your adventures together. I wish more younger people would explore the backwoods and enjoy natures wonders. Keep up the great work. Cheers
Awesome winterglamping...!!!! Nice hot tent adventure...white all the godies that you enyoy even more in the outdoors... A bit jealous i am.... But keep on hitting us white good videos of your outdoor adventures!!!
Thank you Martin. We definitely have a pile of outdoor gear. You would almost think we were starting an outdoor equipment store! Glad you liked the video.
Thank you very much David. We love our new setup. Many adventures to come for sure. You must be hard at work on your Moisie River video. Can’t wait to see that trip.
Thanks Doug. Ya we really should have I don’t disagree. It was so easy though especially for a first time. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the comment!
Quite a change from the winter set-up you had last year eh. Those Snowtrekker tents are really something aren't they. And the owners of Snowtrekker are some of the nicest you could ever meet. I bet you will really enjoy this kit and I'm looking forward to seeing you two (4) use it.
Yes it is a bit of a change from the last setup. 😂. I’ll be using the old setup too though. The owners are great aren’t they. Talked to them about their canoe trips they’ve gone on. Awesome people. Their son is running it now I believe and he’s great as well!!!
What an awesome night out! Hugo looks very much at home in the snow and cold! lol Lou was probably wondering where the fish were but looked happy to just be camping. :) The Snowtrekker will be my choice too if and when I invest. I like the option that you can get a tarp for over it as well, makes cold rain way more enjoyable! lol Congrats on your new tent and thanks to you both for sharing and look forward to your winter adventures! :) :)
Thanks Jacqueline. I like the tarp option as well. Maybe I’ll see if I can order one later in the season and test it out…..and I think Hugo is more at home out there in the snow than indoors for sure!
That was great! The snow falling made it really great. Super choice of tent and stove. I think that Teunis and Brittany from Freak of Nature got the same set up as yours. I loved the mulled wine with maple syrup in it. Thanks for another outstanding video Oh! And +1 on the chainsaw 👍🏻 I don’t know why more UA-camrs don’t do that. Well, I do but, I don’t understand lol
Thanks very much Alan. We love the tent. Not a bad thing to say about it at all. Glad to hear the chainsaw love. I’m waiting to hear the other side of it! Hahaha.
Watching it again for the 2nd time, love it. Suggestion if you haven't done it already; how about telling us where you both grew up, how you met, etc. I consider myself an expert on the origins of dialogue and would guess Ashley is from Cape Breton (just kidding). Merry Christmas.
Haha thanks Paul. That’s not to bad of an idea. We are really pretty private people but maybe in an upcoming video we’ll go over how we met. It’s kind of a cool story. Appreciate your support very much. Merry Christmas to you as well. 🎄 🛶
Trees flocked as snowflakes dance with a swirl of glee to the birds chorus welcoming winter day's. Two sweet helpful companions ever so eager to help haul in a nights stay of wood to warm up rosey checks with while toes stretched out before the wood stove as all embrace the tranquility of hot tatty shared in joy love
@@CanoeTheNorth I thank you so much for your response. I love to write in many forms. I fail miserably in correct words for writing, like are, our, to too pronouns adjectives conjunctions in sentence structure. I never had proper language art taught to me in my young age of school as my dad's work changed so much we moved 13 times before I was in 6th grade. So my friends often say it's best you keep your writings private. Well at 59 now I decided God has blessed my mind to be creative I shall put a little out there and see what others think. So my heart was so happy to read your response. I thank you kindly. I truly do enjoy your video's and the real essence of two beautiful people and two loveable dogs. May your travels and adventures be safe for years to come. PS: I do write stories about my chickens and everyday life happenings on the farm. You just might get a few clucks from them. 😊
Great video again, I started from the beginning lol after watching your latest few. But if I am not mistaken that stove should have come with 2 elbows so the pipe outside goes straight up. I could be wrong though.
Our tent was made of heavy weave but very flexible canvas. Not waterproof. it needed to breath. A light nylon ,not plastic tarp for mid winter thaws in case of rain. That happened only once. Chose to make the tent half a wall tent design. Rope on each front corner stretch between two trees. 2 ropes on back corners to trees. Snow shoes packed the two feet of snow under the tent. stove very much like yours with a hole cut in the top near the front. Always covered by a pot melting snow to drink when not cooking. Stove pipe was telescoping so it folded into one piece that fit in the stove. Light piece of metal under stove to thaw meat before cooking. Spruce boughs cut for sleeping platform covered by light canvas. Blue foam pads and two caribou hides with hair on those. Half stick of butter per person in the evening meal especially at -40 C/F. T-shirt weather in tent while cooking and eating. Could carry a little more than ten days of food for two people and 10 to 12 dogs on the two sleds. Hand saws. Not chainsaws.
So I've spent a lot of time personally and professionally with chainsaws and axes. I normally try not to be the guy with unsolicited "you should do X this way" comments, but I noticed you have a lot of great safety habits--always using the chain brake between cuts, kneeling with a small axe, batoning, etc--so I think you might appreciate a safety tip. One suggestion I have is that when you're walking with the chainsaw, carry it with the bar facing behind you. Even with the scabbard covering the bar, if you carry it forward and trip & fall, there is a chance you could cut yourself on the chain very badly whereas carrying it "backwards" keeps the chain behind you if you fall.
Ahhhh.... I don't mind safety tips at all. I actually always like to hear stuff like that. If it helps keep me safe in the bush its ok with me. Thanks for the tip!
@@CanoeTheNorth Glad it wasn't unwelcome. I worried about coming across as critical, but seeing how well you conduct yourself in so many other ways, I took a chance that you'd appreciate it. Just found you and am looking forward to catching-up on your stuff and seeing what you do in the future.
Thanks Rodd. Appreciate it. That saw is the CS-2511p. Love it for trips like this. Saves probably a good hr or more processing wood. Nice at home as well.
That’s an awesome set up! I went with a seek outside but I’ve always eyed the snowtrekker crew. What brand of pulk are those? I’d like to upgrade my pelican. That one looks perfect. As always, Great content guys!!
Thank you! Our sleds are by a company called lure of the north but unfortunately they no longer sell gear. There are other companies that make similar stuff. We were looking at seek outside. They make some beautiful high quality lightweight gear.
Glad your enjoying the videos on our channel and thanks very much for the comment. This stove is a kni co Alaskan jr. Seems to work great for this tent.
Those snowtrekker tents look nice. I decided to sew my own pyramid hot tent and went with a seek outside titanium stove for the weight. Now the wife wants to winter camp too so I may need a larger tent for her and the kids. How does the toboggan handle? I’ve thought about getting one but am concerned one would handle poorly on trails that aren’t flat since I do a lot of my camping in the Adirondack mountains.
Hey Jonathan. That’s impressive that you made your own tent ⛺️. Well done. I’m sure that took some time and effort to build. As far as the toboggan we love ours. It worked very well for the types of trips we are planning. I’m not 100% sure how it would do on a more mountainous style trip. We are far from experts in the winter camping world but I would imagine a setup like the ski pulks might work better for the descending portion of the trips. For our intended use (frozen lakes and some portage trails) these are perfect.
That looks wonderful. I have one question. As the tent heats up does moisture, specifically the floor become an issue? I see pine boughs on the floor, did you add them as the snow melted?
Ya....this is all new to us so it was a learning experience. The floor did melt where it was open. Where there was wood, our sleeping pads, our gear there was enough insulation to stop most of the melting. Where we were going in and out of the tent and the melting was occurring it started to get a little muddy so we added the boughs. Next time I would add the boughs right after setup. Hope that helps!
Great video…watching other channels I wonder how much energy and time it takes to process firewood. Small chain makes sense to me. What kind of dog is Betty Lou by the way?
Thanks very much Jason. Betty Lou is a cattle dog 🐕. It definitely takes time to gather and process firewood. And even longer when your trying to film everything. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks again.
Our stove pipe and jack are 5”. Might almost be worth replacing the stove jack with a 4” or 5” one to make finding a stove a little easier. I wonder if seek outside might make a stove that could work for you?
Too late at night to really comment. This was strange. My sister and I spent about 20 years with dog teams camping in Alaska. I'll talk about that tomorrow.
@@CanoeTheNorth Try searching "hvid glögg" on youtube. Not all videos are translated, however, think you understand the recipe. Personally I make on apple juice, cloves, cardamom, whole cinnamon, star anise, whole black pepper, citrus fruit and some sweetness (syrup, sugar ect) Let it simmer for a long time. serve in a cup, with apple pieces, dried berries. You can add vodka in for extra kick 😉
I loved watching Hugo(?) help process wood! Love watching your little family adventure together ❄️
It is Hugo! Ya he loves to help with firewood 😂. Thanks for the comment Lori.
Your eyes tell a story of their own!!! Hot Toddy"s are the bomb baby!!! Keep living your Dash!!! - Davey. P.S. The shot of Hugo covered in snow, chewing a tree trunk, is wall art!

it looks so cozy and warm. The steaks and bacon frying up over that nice stove...so cool! Hugo was hilarious helping carry wood back and forth. What wonderful memories the two of you will have to look back on.
Thank you Steven. We are really happy with the setup. It’s just way to cozy inside that tent. Thank you very much as always for your comments.

They love the snow ❄️. They are like kids in a candy store when there’s snow in the ground. Thanks flowerchild
Looks cozy!! What a great way to enjoy and get outside in winter.
It’s super cozy. I have to say it’s a lot more comfortable than a tarp 🥶. Thanks Tracy!
Beautifully done! Hot tenting is a whole new level of comfort in winter. I enjoy my Snowtrekker too & agree with everything you say about it. 👍

Lots more to come. Thanks Alex.
Very good video, looked so cosy and loved seeing the snow falling.
NIce New Trekker... I just purchased a new Esker Classic2... looking forward to getting out in it.
Thanks Dennis. We love the new setup. I’m sure your esker will be amazing. Looking forward to seeing it in action!!! Stay warm.
Calm and nice 👍
Thank you.
Ya, I'm pretty sure I would have practiced setting up the tent before heading out. Looked like I fun overnight adventure. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks Doug. Ya we really should have I don’t disagree. It was so easy though especially for a first time. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the comment!
A very nice setup, lots of new winter adventures to follow.. the pup’s sure do love the snow.. well done

I just subscribed to your channel because it looks awesome. Going to watch your other videos to catch up. Thanks for sharing 👊
Thanks very much Steven. Hope you enjoy the other videos and thanks for taking the time to leave a nice comment!
Hugo running through the snow very bear like minus the ears! Glad to see your tent and stove working well.

Oh! And +1 on the chainsaw 👍🏻
I don’t know why more UA-camrs don’t do that.

Work smarter not harder my friend 😁
So cool would love to add a hot tent to our adventure gear thanks for the great video!👍
Thanks so much. It’s a lot of fun. Opens up a whole other season. Hope you get the chance to try it out. 🏕
Beautiful video.

On question, you brown shagy dog, what breed of dog is he or her?
Hi Victoria. We are happy to hear you are enjoying the videos! That big brown dog (Hugo) is a Newfoundland dog. He’s a big teddy bear.
Hi, I loved the new tent and your mulled wine recipe. What model is your Echo chainsaw - the CS-2511P?

I wonder if the stove would do better at the rear of the tent. Kinda wish had two jacks.
I’m sure the people at snowtrekker could do that for you if you asked them. Great tents 🏕️.

Too late at night to really comment. This was strange. My sister and I spent about 20 years with dog teams camping in Alaska. I'll talk about that tomorrow.
Good to serve mulled wine (in Danish Gløgg) on a cold day
Try white mulled wine with white wine or elderflower juice.
That sounds good too. We will have to try that one trip. I’ve never heard of white mulled wine 🍷.
@@CanoeTheNorth Try searching "hvid glögg" on youtube.
Not all videos are translated, however, think you understand the recipe.
Personally I make on apple juice, cloves, cardamom, whole cinnamon, star anise, whole black pepper, citrus fruit and some sweetness (syrup, sugar ect) Let it simmer for a long time. serve in a cup, with apple pieces, dried berries. You can add vodka in for extra kick 😉
