- Hi there! We are truly excited to bring a new video from our Bushcraft wilderness site. Timing with the weather had to be perfect in order to ensure that we could visit the site without having issues. The forecast promised good conditions for us and we couldn't wait to spend a night in the shelter that we spent so much time upgrading in the fall. We couldn't be happier with the overnight stay and we really hope that you enjoy!

Hot Shelter = Happy Campers !!!! 😃👍. I couldn’t believe how much snow was around the shelter 😳. I saw how Sandra made steps going down into it. I guess all that snow helps to insulate it too. Sandra is officially the best snow shoveler I know of !!! 👍. She even made steps for the latrine 😃. Those bacon 🥓 cheeseburgers looked awesome !!! Guess I know what I’m having for dinner. That porcupine was really putting a whoopin on that tree 😳. Seeing him waddling across the snow at the end was quite picturesque. The snow falling made it perfect. Shoutout for Mike …. aways enjoy watching you process firewood. Your axe skills are top notch !!! That spring is truly a blessing !!! Great water year round 👍. All the effort you two put in building that shelter has been 100% worth it !!! Roomy , Dry , Cozy , and Warm !!! Excellent trip 👍👍. Glad I got to see y’all and I’ll see ya on the next one. 😃. Hurry !!! Lol
THANKS for including the porcupine.
Thank you very much Jim! It really turned out to be a great trip. We're so happy with how the whole setup is working for us. The footage of the porcupine at the end was a surprise to us. It came from a trail cam that we setup randomly on the trail. I was stunned by how it came out perfect with the setting, conditions and lighting. I can say for the first time, I really wish that winter was longer😄. Can't wait to go back! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Thanks James! I'd like to thank the porcupine for showing up😄.
Hi! We're really happy to release this video and we hope you enjoy it! It was really great to return to the shelter. It was a great time. Thank you very much for coming along!
wonderful
Hi Mike and Sandra you guy's are my favorite couple, you compliment each other so well and Sandra's not just another pretty face she really puts in a lot of work that's nice to see. I love all your videos they bring me a lot of enjoyment. Thank you and please keep up the good work. Peace and love
Hi Nadine, thank you very much! We're really glad you enjoy the vids.
Hi everyone from Syracuse NY USA my friends thank you for sharing your adventures
YAY! New video! I love how real both of you are.
Thank you so much S V V!
Nice winter camping trip Mike and Sandra. The shelter is a blessing with the cold weather. Glad you two can get out. Thanks for sharing your wonderful videos.
Thanks Michael! The little a-frame has worked out better than I ever thought. It's been great!
wonderful
Will the snow ever melt Mike?it's nice to see you and Sandra out together again.last time it was just you. I'll bet your tired of snow.I know I would be. We have winter again down here starting Friday.Hope we don't get any snow . We had some real warm days for awhile and then it got colder again. I'm ready for winter myself. At least you were able to get in your shelter. I enjoyed your video very much. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe
Thank you very much Terrie, honestly for years I found winters really long. Now that we do winter camping and have the A-frame and super shelter, I found that I enjoy winter almost as much as summer.
Wow, that's a lot of snow there! Cool closing shot with the porcupine too. Awesome. 👌
Thanks for letting us know that the truck was still there. Great video. 😊
Thank you Margie!
Enjoy the videos. Thanks for taking me along!
Thanks for coming with us GB!
This was such a peaceful beautiful video. Thanks for taking my mind off of all the current events in the world. God bless.
Great to see you two back at the shelter. Looks like winter is still blowing snow, looked beautiful! Pretty good size porcupine.
Hi Steve! Mr porcupine has been eating well. 😄
great to see my 2 favorite campers forgive my typing abilities i am 81 you guys are so considerate to each other keep it up.love your videos.
Great food and Delux room for the night,, love it I will have two burgers loaded and the room with a view,, Good times for sure
Thanks kelly! Happy to hear that it can be considered a delux accommodation and not have a floor! My kind of high end!
When you think you just didn’t do enough work during the week and you go winter camping. Great job guy’s.
Thank you for sharing this lovely video. It's wonderful to see you both back at the shelter. 😊💫
That was one of the best shelters I've ever seen.
Can’t tell you how happy I was to come home from work and see a new video. I love that shelter. The lights make it look so cozy and welcoming. You both have it down to a science. After seeing those burgers I’m hungry again haha. I hope you both get back there soon for a few days in a row. Love the extended stays. Glad you are both well and looking forward to the next adventure. May you both be safe and healthy!
Thank you very much Elizabeth! We'd love to stay longer but with our jobs and how short our summers are here, we like to save our vacations to have long summer trips to.😀
Great to see you 2 at the shelter again. Looks like you had a great time!🔥🔥
Hi Anndy! It was, it's always fun to get back there.
Glad you two made it to the bushcraft shelter. Thank you for taking us on your adventures.
Fabulous video and the snow and the sound of the wind just so inviting
this old boy enjoyed it again ty kids ! :)
Thank you very much Roger!
@@IamOutdoorsy :)
It’s been a long time coming lol I love that shelter !! That entire site for that matter it’s standing the test of time great workmanship!
Thanks Mike! Worked out pretty good for us! 😀
It's unreal how much snow everyone got this year. Here in Winnipeg I can't remember when I had so much snow in my yard and it all came after January 1st.
So happy to see another video from you.
Thank you Susan! It was fun!
Welcome back my two beautiful friends?. I know this sounds selfish, And i think i have said it before, But watching your video when you have friends there with you really isn't the same! I'm sure your friend are great people to be around. BUT its just not the same feeling when you have other people with you! You both are our baby and you don't belong to no one except us lol lol lol high fives Mike and soft hugs Sondra......
😄 you have to learn to share Richard. Lol, no worries. We love both our trips with our friends and those with just Sandra and I. We'll keep doing both.😀
Thank you so much for sharing. The love you both have for camping and each other is truly awesome. Have a blessed day.
Hi Sandra & Mike! 🙋🏽♀️
Who needs a gym! That was quite a shoveling workout along with all of the other prep chores. Looked like the hamburgers were the perfect high protein dinner after all of that work.
It sure was a beautiful day with the sun shining which made the snow even more beautiful. It's clear why it's your happy place! 🤗
This was a really nice video, I really enjoyed it and looking forward to the next one.

Sandra is amazing shoveling the snow, warm and cozy shelter, great video guys, I came to your channel when you were doing your first shelter and have loved your videos ever since, you are both so nice.💞💞
Where there is a will there is always a way 👍👏great video guys
Thank you very much! 🙋♀️🙋♂️
Cozy lean-to. The twinkle lights make it so homey. So nice to be out in the snow chopping wood, cooking burgers and enjoying the warm fire. Great video. Take care and stay safe.
It’s great to see you back at your wilderness hot shelter. I’m sure you were both happy to be able to get to the shelter. I watch all of your videos, but I don’t comment often, but I had to today. 😊😊
Thanks a lot for watching San D, and great to hear from you!🙋♀️🙋♂️
Awesome guys, beautiful cold day.. time for a roof on the outside toilet… cheers
Thanks jim! cheers to you too!
Thanks for sharing.
Always a pleasure.
Our pleasure Per-Arne!
Lovely to see you back at our fave shelter. How deep was the snow, looked about 4feet deep. Awesome. Take care.
Thanks Dulcie, probably around 3 feet, it was over 4 feet a few weeks before but we got a bit of rain before this trip.
Looked like a nice over nighter looking forward to the next one
Hello Mike and Sandra,, wow you still have lots of snow.. I really enjoy your winter camping in the shelter.. you 2 always do an awesome job working together and building shelters.. thank you for another great video.
Thank you very much Linda, I think we likely lost a lot of snow since then. Things are starting to warm up a little bit.
@@IamOutdoorsy spring is almost here
Great video !! I sure love that snow. The shelter, ...well, I just love everything about it. Good job you guys.
So happy when your videos come up makes my day thank you 👍🏻😁
Hi. I thought I'd gotten way behind on your videos. I had pneumonia in December and spent a week in the hospital, then my son caught the Wuhan bat stew flu.(covid) He was very nice and shared with 9 of us, so by the first of January I was back in critical care with this horrible disease. I am just now starting to feel better.
Anyway it seems you didn't upload a lot so now I'm caught up. I'm glad to see the both of you doing well. The snow is so very beautiful. It's 75degrees here in Tennessee. Those hamburgers looked great. Thank you for the videos. I truly enjoy them. I know there are two Irenes who comment. I'm the one who fell 2 years ago and broke my hip. Also the one who worries about what you eat. Lol. Stay healthy.
I'm happy to hear you were able to recover Irene. Thank for being with us for all these years!
The lights in the shelter make it look so cozy, along with the great stove💥
Thanks Sylvia, Sandra deserves all the credit.
it is a shame you had to leave just when it started snowing. we love the lights in the Aframe shelter.
COZY...thanks for sharing...💙Much Love and Be Well
I love watching you two! I love the way you treat one another. Tacos are the best, so easy to make! It’s my joy to come along! Thank you!
Just the best! Thank you guys. ❤️
Looks like it was t-shirt hot in there!! So awesome.
😄 It was!
ڤديو أكثر من رائع شكرا على المجهود العظيم أنا أشكركم جداً جداً جداً جداً جداً جداً
Thank you very much Hemada. And thank you for watching our videos for all this time. 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Happy to see both of you
Happy to be seen Terrie😄. Thank you very much!🙋♂️🙋♀️
I totally enjoyed watching your video what an adventure I thought it was great
Your brave souls sending some sunshine from Yorkshire 🌞
Thank you Vanessa!
Thanks for sharing- welcome back.
Thank you very much Lee!
Thank you guys for sharing. Keep safe.
Hi Anita! You too!
Hi Cuties, Wow, love the snow and the burgers looks ono [means good] Living on an island we don't have those critters you all have and I was surprised those porcupines could climb the tree that high. Thanks for sharing and take care. Aloha
Hi gingernailgirl! They are pretty good climbers. Never seem to in a hurry to get anywhere too. Guess you don't need to move fast when you're covered in sharp quills.😀
That was fun, but lots of work. Love the shelter you both worked to build.
Hi Jo! We were so happy to do an overnighter there. Hopefully we can have another before the snows disappear.
The excitment (snow) just started and you left.. I love watching the snow storms and how you deal with it..
always enjoyable👍💯
Thank you! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Great winter video.
It wont be long now, spring is just around the corner .
Thank You for sharing your video, and bringing us along.
Thanks jack! Spring is getting close for sure.

Hi there marian! Spring is coming in pretty fast here now.
Amazing camping Vlog
So great to see you all. Thanks for taking us slong
Another awesome night and I envy your water source year round. Take care and stay safe, Al
Thanks Al, that spring is arguably the best part of our site!
Hello my friends again lol lol sorry i forgot this..... I was looking closely at the floor in your cabin, And i just thought of a great way to fix it! ( right before you are ready to leave to go back home ) For starters get a pump spray bottle, add bug killer in it. PLUS two BIG bags of saw dust ( or go to a saw mill and get it for free ) Spray the floor from wall to wall..... Then add a thick layer of saw dust down..... Leave to go home and before you come back the smell will be gone and no buds! The saw dust will be great to walk on in just your socks on and it will be soft on your feet......( free joke ) >>>> where was tooth past made?.....Well we know it was made in Kentucky! because if it was made any other place they would have called it teeth past....
good call on getting that little fan to move the heat around
Truly enjoy your vids guys. So fun and relaxing. Big fan. Thanks Dan from New Jersey
Great to see you guys again, as usual, i very much enjoyed watching your video.
Thank you Jon, really glad you liked it!
Very Cool Guys!
Thanks marcnoel!
It all looks good. Keep up the good work.
The perfect episode. The shelters look great. Enjoy
Thanks Alan! Glad you liked it!
Another fun looking trip! Always a great video with you two in it, and glad your car was still there.
😄Us too!
Good to see back at that fantastic shelter!!
Thanks Panda!
It was too long between visits but you picked a gorgeous day for it! Missed you both... and yes I saw the other vids... not the same
Thank you Linda, we hoped to get there more often but unfortunately it wasn't in the cards. Glad we did get to spend a night in the deep snow though.
I really enjoy this video 🙂be careful and always stay safe
Great video guys. Cheers from the shores of Georgian bay Ontario
Thanks Barry, Cheers from the Maritimes!
I look forward to your videos. Thank you for the work you put in to give us good content.
Thank you Chika Chika!
Love tge video,John,Sheppey,UK....................................
Excellent video guys your bush craft build looks awesome and comfortable. Thanks again for making my morning with this video ❤️love both of you…my husband watched it too. Oh and your porcupine friend needs a name. Can’t wait til the next one.
Thanks No chill Gaven! Really glad both of you come along with us on our trips. As for a name for Mr porcupine. I was thinking Lord Archibal Wilfred the Third....then again, may I'll let Sandra name him😄.
Another amazing video!
Hi guys that was a lot of snow digging it looks soooòo easy when I am sitting in the warm😂😂😂was a fun video I really enjoyed it thank you. GOD BLESS love you guys Desiree New Zealand.
😄Thank you very much Desiree! Big thanks to Sandra for all the digging. She is pretty awesome!
Beautiful 👍😊👍
I love your favorite camp. It would be cool to have a camp like that.
Thank you LinLin!
I enjoy your videos🤗
Glad you like them Sharise!
Truly hope to find a partner to enjoy life as you both have.
Great videos.
Keep them coming
Thank you very much!
I enjoyed your video. Thanks
Nice job producing this video! The editing is especially nice and you two make a very nice couple.
Thank you very much for the kind words Chuck Wagon!🙋♀️🙋♂️
Always great to see your videos...its a shame you did all that work and could only stay one night....looking forward to the next one....thanks for sharing!
Thanks Kristin, Worth it!😀
Great to see u both enjoyed the video looking forward to more
Cheers andy! It was great to be back at the wilderness spot!
Another great video! You sure get a lot of snow. I live in the Fraser Valley of BC. We’ve had several days of sunny weather with about 13 degrees in the afternoon. My neighbour was mowing his lawn on Sunday the 6th.
Wow, already mowing there?!? Still at least a month or two away from that here.
Great to see you both!!
Thanks Marianne!
So great to see you both again! And a joy to see how much the shelter has become just about perfect.. Greetings from Scotland where we’ve had a mild winter, but a lot of gales and storms!
You built a good bushcraft shelter! I favor building a straight sidewall high enough to allow sitting space on a comfortably elevated bed platform; then steeply gable roofing that structure.
I'm so happy to see you guys back I love your videos 😃
Lovely cozy shelter....thanks for sharing..waiting for more exciting vlogs
Thank you so much Sunshine!
Hi guys,
Hope y'all are doing well! Again thank you for sharing your journey.
That was a lot of snow that had fallen. I love the area where you get the water. The scenery is so beautiful and the water so clear.
God bless you both and take care and be safe.
Oh, I have a question? What year did you started your channel?
Thank you very much Maria! I love the water source too. We released our first video in July 2017. Never thought we'd ever have a hundred subscribers to be honest. We are so grateful to have so many new friends to share our trip with. 🙋♂️🙋♀️
I look forward to watching you're video's. If I want to see snow ❄I just look at you're video's. Doesn't snow here
Glad you enjoy them Yolanda!
Thats pretty cool setup
Hey, glad to see you back at the shelter. I'd say you were born really looking forward to it. It looks like the weather was making its mark there too. Would it be beneficial for you to get a good flask/thermos and fill it with boiling water before going to bed and then using that to make your coffee in the morning. It could shave some time off in the morning if you need to leave early. That way you could let the stove burn down at some point in the night & it's cool by morning. I tried it before with an ordinary Chillies bottle & it worked a treat. Glad you both enjoyed your camp.
Hi Christina, that's a pretty great idea. My one caveat is that I love the process of getting morning coffee prepared in the morning. Hopefully without being melodramatic😄, it really is one of my most satisfying activities when camping in summer or winter. I can't explain why, but I always feel relaxed when prepping up the morning brew and, of course, enjoying the morning coffee. I will keep your tip in mind in the future should we have to leave first thing in the morning.
@@IamOutdoorsy oh absolutely still do your brew in the morning, just keep the hot water in the flask. I wouldn't say coffee brewed the night before would taste that great at all. Have a fab Paddy's Day btw! We're gearing up for a nice long weekend in Ireland. Two national holidays tomorrow & Friday. Happy days!
