    I am a 6th generation Texan and have spent my life camping, hiking, fishing exploring nature in all ways. I am now 81 and had a hip replaced and can no longer enjoy nature as before. Recently found these videos and love having a substitute. I found you through Tony and Bruno/Bruce. They have enriched my life and appreciate your efforts to present them. Congratulations on your wedding. You are a lovely couple.🥰

    I’m 60 and went on a solo winter camping trip with our dog last year, Feb 20, in the interior of BC Canada. I used snowshoes and a ski pulk to haul all my gear up a hill in 4 trips, and took me way longer to get set up than I thought. Didn’t get to sleep until 1:30 am, more exhausted than I’ve ever been in my life. I admire that your wife will do this with you because there is NO WAY mine would. Temp got down to -18C at night. Stayed for two nights. Was quite an adventure. Going to do it again this winter but going to use a snowmobile this time. Great video!

      I would say I'm in pretty good shape (for 60). I can squat 250 for 10 reps, deadlift 370 and do about 8 slow pullups. Just bought a new backpack, the Exo K4 5000, and have started doing hikes around my neighbourhood with heavy loads. Anyway, ALWAYS have a GPS with SOS just in case. @@mikimiki195

      When I camped in Rockies as young woman way back, guide was so strict we had to get our allotted jobs done and darent complain. After a week or so, we did get into routine of getting on with it, in heat or cold, feeling unwell or not. Especially tired at night and cold, those allotted cooked a hot meal whilst someone put our tents up and others fetched water. In rotation daily. Worked well. So great these are well disciplined and not quarrelling.

    Embracing misery with a smile is a necessary item in a survival kit. When nature gives a mischievous smile all you can do is smile back. For me, Buffalo Systems gear works great. No layering required. I used the Special 6 shirt for my hike to the Arctic Circle in Iceland. The weather was cold and damp. I was warm and dry. It worked well in below zero weather on the northeast cost of the states too. Bravo for enduring nature’s tooth and claw👏🏻 Accolades for being prepared for nature’s trick. Cheers to cozy camping! Best to be safe. Be well. Wishing you peace, comfort and pleasant weather ahead. May good fortune follow on your endeavors.

    You two are an epic couple, and the video is awesome. I'm 70 but I remember way back in my mid 20's camping in a small tent with two mates in the tussocks way up the East Matukituki on Mt Sysiphus, and waking up to half a metre of snow (we didn't have mobiles and accurate forecasts in those days). It was chaos scrabbling around for our gear and boots under the snow, and we stuffed everything randomly in our packs as fast as we could and got the hell out of there. I'm not sure my wife would have appreciated the romance if I had put her through that only three weeks into our marriage! Cheers from a slightly warmer Lower Hutt👍

    An adventure indeed. Victoria is a good sport, and it’s lovely to see you work together sharing camp duties. Dinner looked delicious while dining in a blizzard 🥶, lol. It would probably be a good idea to pack snowshoes for future winter camping. You might want to have an inflatable snow tube or lightweight sled to slide your packs if they’re heavy. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing and congratulations on your wedding.

    Lovely to see Victoria again and you two are awesome campers. Those conditions were pretty frozen and windy. We have walked for fun snow shoeing in a blizzard for fun in Vancouver and that was enough for us but camping in it is very brave. Enjoyed your video, well done and thank you for sharing your snowy experience.

    I love that the wind was gusting and helping stop the snow from accumulating on the tarp. What an incredible setup for camping in the snow! Did you get much heat loss through the bottom of the tent?

    • @AbelandVictoria
      @AbelandVictoria  11 місяців тому +6

      Yeah it worked pretty well. Our sleeping mats are pretty good. Mine is a 3 season 4.2 r value and it was just warm enough. Victoria is 4.8 she was toasty warm

    G'day, another great vid. I took my wife to a Sunshine coast B & B for our honeymoon.
    Victoria "where will we go for our honeymoon?"
    Abel "ah yes there's a blizzard coming in the mountains!"
    Victoria "How romantic!" 😂😂

    • @AbelandVictoria

    This reminds me of trip into remote SW Tassie forty years ago, but without the warm clothes! :) we could only afford army surplus gear (cheap, flimsy) plus a little pup tent, and a spare set of dry clothes.Those were the days. We did have new Japara waterproofs, and good sleeping bags - but that was our only state of the art stuff. We had to join our sleeping bags together to keep each other warm! Yes, bed early and chocolate - way to go. Thanks for posting

    My favorite part was the "squeak" and crunch of the snow under your boots as you hiked back to your vehicle....such a lovely sound! Cheers and all the best!
