Hey Rob stinker about the fuel evaporation. Easy lesson to learn, thankfully it was only coffee you had to go without. The thing about alcohol stoves in the cold is its also better to keep your fuel in a bottle somewhere you can keep it warm. It can be really difficult to light and keep lit if its allowed to get really cold. Great little stoves otherwise and so nice how quiet they are if you are not in a hurry. Great little trip!
Another enjoyable video 😍. Thanks for sharing this with me 😊
My pleasure 😊
Excellent as always! But no coffee! The horror! 😁
😁 I know! A long cold walk with no coffee!
I’d love to see something like that again
Found you Snow Man, not getting notification, it's a change seeing you with a tent love the snow. It's was mid 70s here in North Carolina thanks brother for the video
Welcome back! I don't know why UA-cam isn't sending out notifications to people. Really sucks
Yep, that lid with the handle is called the “simmer/snuff” ring and is only used to diminish the flame or to put it out. Works faster without it. ⛺️👍👍☕️👎
I noticed that! I originally had it on and it was not boiling the water at all so I took it off
That was great Rob, simple pack for a overnighter (in this weather) works well.. Looking foreword to your next Adventure, All the Best and Happy Trails ..
Thanks Scott! I love the lightweight simple setups, so much easier on the body. I just wish they made for a more interesting video
Who needs coffee when there's a wee dram to put a spring in your step? Cheers!
aye! You said it lad!
Another enjoyable video 👍 🎥 you seem like you're always camping ☕😉 you only go home when the whiskey 🍸runs out?🤣😂💪🇺🇸
Haha that's precisely it! I need the whiskey to help me sleep with my shoulder right now
You've been busy young man !
You can say that again!!
Nice video. Small saw and small hachet would have been nice to tote along. Coffee would then not be a problem. Plus, gotta have a small fire when camping to provide warmth and ambiance. Bring little squeeze bottle of extra fuel next time. Enjoyed the video very much.
Good call! I purposely avoided bringing a saw so I wasn't tempted to over do it with the shoulder but it definitely would have come in handy
Great Video 👍🏻,
I liked that little tent , very cool ‼️Wishing you all the best 💯
Take Care and Stay Strong 💪🏻
Be LIMITLESS 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks 👍
I love that little tent! Perfect for overnight trips
Excellent overnighter.
Thank you! I had fun
I wish I could do a super light winter backpacking trip like you but where I am it would put my safety at risk . I alway's prefer to use matches with an alcool stove , way much easier to light. Hope you get well with your shoulder sacrebleu, you are still a young man ! Merci pour la vidéo Robert !
Thanks Sylvain!! I like to think I am too but I guess I can't be working out twice a day and sleeping in the woods two nights a week now I'm in my thirties lol
Another great video. I have one of those stoves and i like it . I burn denatured alcohol but i always carry some in a small bottle with me
That's what I put in mine but this is my first time using one so now I know better and have to put the cap back on it at night
I did a tarp setup on my AT thruhike a few times in blizzard conditions when I needed a break. I tied the middle of the tarp to a tree, secured rhe. Adjacent two corners around the base of the tree, then planted by hiking poles to secure the opposite two corners into the ground. It allowed a good reprieve from the wind and a single candle helped warm me up.
Nice! I'll have to try something like that. You essentially closed the tarp in and used the candle to heat the inside?
@@BrooksandBirches exactly
Hi Rob! What about alcohol stove? Nice to see you again in your new tent. I would like to try this: Coleman Instant Swagger 3P. Do you know it? A very warm hug my friend.
I forgot to put the other cap back on at night and the fuel evaporated! I do not know of that tent, I have never seen one
Nice one ! 😀 Tnx and greetings fron the netherlands 👋
Greetings my friend!!
Hello Rob - Enjoyed the adventure, except the part where there was no morning coffee. I cannot even start breathing in the morning until after I have my coffee. It would have been one long walk getting out of there for me, without coffee. Where the heck is Starbucks when you really need it. Take Care - Hope the shoulder heals up soon. Regards, Randy in Arizon. It is 28 degrees and snow on the ground here in Arizona tonight.
Hey Randy! It's warmer here right now! It was almost 50 yesterday but we are supposed to get the dreaded "seasonably appropriate weather" by Saturday. Another false dawn when it comes to spring
Bring a little extra fuel just in case. Were you grumpy without your morning coffee?? 😉
I was going to do that but couldn't find a little container but I'm going to get a pack of those cheap water bottles and use one of those. And yes I was! I was up pretty early and I was not happy
No coffee for me 😂
Haha innit bro! Early start with no caffeine
Man alive, you gift us with 3 videos in less than two weeks' time? Bro I'm in SE Washington. Should we make a plan to camp out together or is that stretching limitations?
I'm getting after it!! Nice man! I would love to go see Washington some day. I'm hoping next year once the truck camper gets all fixed up
Nice why was the stove a fail?? Didn't stay lit....??
It was a user error failure! I didn't put the right cap back on at night and the fuel evaporated
I swear I could smell what you were cooking!! I cannot tell you how much I enjoy watching you set up your camp on each trip. Its like I am doing it myself, just not as good as you do. I like the lite set up, tho I know its not as warm as some of your others are but glad you conserved your bones by doing that. And no coffee, as Depeche Mode said, "sometimes God has a sick sense of humor". For me those alcohol stoves bite my ass, I stick my hand over to see if its lit, and F++k yes it is. Or I run out before get something cooked. Wierd. Again the God humor thing. Thanks!!
Haha yeah that was my first time using one and I couldn't tell if it was lit or not! I like the idea of just being able to buy one big jug of denatured alcohol rather than those tiny propane bottles all the time but it took a heck of a long time to boil that water!
How many time did you have to get up and pee, I usually get up at least once maybe twice, I hate that especially when it cold haha
I'm always a once a night guy... for now anyway
Greetings! I want to ask everything, isn"t it cold to sleep on an inflatable mattress in winter? The air in it is cold. I tried it once, but it froze at night. Thank you and good luck!
You need to have one with the right R-Value. R-value is essentially the way to measure a substances insulating properties. The lower the R-Value the less insulating it will be. This sleeping pad has one of the highest R-values available at 6.9 I believe
I bet you marred that knife using it to pound tent stakes.
I used the handle to pound them in but I figure that's why you buy a heavy duty knife
ok dude...wait until you get to my age (51) and sh*t starts aching at random. Keep on trucking'!
Haha I wish I had that long to wait but that's pretty much how I feel right now at 32
What tent is that?
It's a Marmot Eos 1p but it's been discontinued now. I think the closest thing is a Marmot Tungsten UL 1
Hey think you like your food with a KICK lol...
I sure do buddy!!
Why do campers eat meals that make you crap fire 🔥 in the worst places, wait till you get home for that. Can’t think of anything worse than having that happen away from home. I’m not eating chili 🌶 or hot sauce in the freakin woods or curry.
I just love spicy foods! I eat hot sauce pretty much everyday of my life and it never has an effect on my bowels
@@BrooksandBirches It use to be like that for me until I hit 46. It seems a switch gets flipped upon reaching that age and the human body fails to perform any more the way it use to. You’ll just have to trust me on that.
👍😐👍
Cheers!
"ultralight winter backpacking"...
Hauls heavy thermos full of coffee...
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣 Can't forget the flask of whiskey either!!
Nope! I always head out with 50-60 lbs of UL camping gear....🤣

Thanks buddy!!
First
Cheers Brandon!
