I'm amazed with every video you produce. You do so much one-handed and narrate throughout each presentation with useful and fun information. To top that, you're out in the middle of nowhere, and cooking delicious campsite cuisine. You're a Natural.
I loved your widowmaker comment at 4:00: "If a tree like that came down on you, you wouldn't know it; (you'd) wake up somewhere else". That's funny, but oh, so true! Hey, great "first snowfall of the season" adventure. Thank you, sir.
MW another fantastic hot tent overnight! Hearing that snow crunching under your footsteps got my heart racing. Always enjoy these tremendously. Take care out there brother and thanks for bring us along!
I had to move from forest house to city for family reasons. No forests here and unique videos like yours are so much more appreciated now. Just be careful, I had a friend who burned himself to death at night inside his sleeping bag, in outing like yours. Thank you and cheers om Europe
Now that's HOT tenting with that size stove in a Paratipi! You must have been approaching heat stroke. Great video, I'm chomping at the bit to get out especially since winter has arrived here, 6-8" of snow on the ground and its -17 C (1 F) outside as I type. I like the looks of the door on that stove, appears well designed.
It was crazy hot. I actually got down to wearing just my underwear, not even a shirt but left that bit out of the video. Even had to walk around basically naked to cool off. LOL!
Ha! so you couldn't see the bug out in the cold and decided to share your tent...good for you LOL. Always look forward to the hot tent videos, would so love one, maybe one day, good watch, look forward to the next. regards matt
I am fascinated by how you can drink coffee and then go right to bed. It sort of reminds me when I was a Sentry dog handler in Vietnam. We would be out on Post in the middle of the night and someone would come by with a coffee urn on the jeep and ask if we wanted some. We'd say no thanks, it keeps me awake (ha ha). But I was only 20 then. Got to be careful with drinking coffee too close to bedtime now...
try those energy drinks : monster red bull etc that screws up your night . Tried that while coming back from a long drive home after moose hunting one late evening...Voila tossed and turned all ...night
"I'm not the world's biggest tree hugger" meanwhile his channel is Megawoodswalker and his videos focused on "leave no trace behind" hiking/camping/bushcrafting.
Kinda like hammock camping in summer. Once yea go there is no going back. Also a great northern bugout system. Have a very little parastove in my BOB during winter. Thanks for watching!
The hammock thing just never worked for me. I'm a side sleeper and I'm in pain for a couple days after a night in a hammock. But the stove looks great. I'll have to research tents that are set up for one.
As usual great vid - thank you - and can I state right know that I do not understand why you don`t have more subs - this channel and content is great and I really enjoy your approach.
Great video. I did hear some gun fire at the end of your video. Most likely hunters. I didn't see you wearing any orange reflectors. Might want to include that in your gear. Keep the videos coming.
Check out 0.06 in the very start of the video. The hat is my hunter orange hat for just that purpose. I also have a vest which is worn if hiking during the morning or dusk. Thanks for watching!
Hey Mega! Just found your channel and I'm loving it! Any chance you could give me some details on the stove and tent setup? I've always wanted to try winter camping and that looks quite affordable. Thanks and keep up the great vids!
Want to go out hot tensing all day tomorrow through Sunday we're going to end up getting 3 to 9 in of snow ❄️ here in Clinton Iowa I'm going to go out into the woods in Illinois on the family timber Seattle goes there's like a hundred acres 😀
Good video as always. At the beginning you mentioned that you weren't fully determined to camp in one location versus another. We're you able to let your emergency contact know that you hadn't decided where you would be?
Yup via text message. I like when there is phone service in an area but then it becomes a distraction as start surfing the internet once camp is setup. It also another mouth to feed aka the phone eats power. Thanks for watching!
xjeepmanx FYI, if you add on to your lavvu like a foot or two it's like a new shelter. I sewed exter canvas to mine and you could fit 3 to 4 ppl inside. Good luck..
I've woken up screaming OH SH**!!! to the sounds of cracking and popping as a tree was about to fall over, and again as it slid down a hill colliding with several other trees, sounding like a bowling ally.
The lantern is a LR30, Headlamp is this. www.lumonite.com/en/lumonite_compass_r/ the camera was a Sony AS20 in camcorder shell. Often I leave the DSLR home as this has really good low light video IMHO.Thank for watching!
brother, you need to use a ground cloth, if you do not buy one.... get a canvas to fit and then have someone sew a tarp on the bottom of the canvas (not just the edges but across the entire canvas) when you lay down the ground cloth you lay it so you side flaps (called sod cloth) are under your ground cloth, sealing any drafts. make sure your ground cloth is a little larger them the base dimensions of your tent.trust me i have been CW reenacting for 34 years+ in rain, mud, snow, and heat. You will not regret it. image.sportsmansguide.com/adimgs/l/1/175423m13_ts.jpg
This is a totally different type of system. I intentionally don't use one for several reasons. First I have a more UL nylon ground cloth under my bed roll and a wide closed cell pad for sitting. Second canvas would be too heavy. Everything you see is ultra light weight silicon impregnated nylon. There is no canvas to sew anything onto. The stove is UL Titanium and packs down to the size of a lap top.. I also don't pack cots as shown in that sportsmansguide link for the same reason. I can walk into my shelter and not worry about messing up a floor. I can piss inside the shelter at night and not worry about it if necessary. The entire shelter and stove is 6 or so pounds. This isn't a reenacting type setup. I use this to hike long distances and when living out of my pack in winter. I do appreciate the advice just the same and thanks for watching!
I love the lentils and ham. Looked good.

He always communicated with his followers. Going to miss him.

Thanks for watching!
First snow of the year here in my part of NH I bet you’d be breaking in the hot tent. Rip I found your channel after you passed .
"you'd wake up, somewhere else." I like that.
Thanks for watching!
@Brooks Grey obvious spam is obvious. Did you really think this was the best place to try this? 😂
Beautiful ❤️ Love Snow wish I could be there!!
Thanks for watching!
“Very civilized” your videos are the best man!
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it!
Thanks for the adventure. I can't wait to hit the wood's myself. Love that little stove nice and lite. That tent is really looks great too.
Thanks for watching!
MW another fantastic hot tent overnight! Hearing that snow crunching under your footsteps got my heart racing. Always enjoy these tremendously. Take care out there brother and thanks for bring us along!

Woodswalker, another great video from a fellow CPF Member
Thanks. Good to see fellow CPF Members!
Wow. I haven’t been on cpf for ages. Small world.
Have you tried a silky saw before ? Maybe it was the frozen wood but seems you were struggling.
Good stuff, WW. I think you may be starting to win me over to the whole packable woodstove thing.
Kinda like hammock camping in summer. Once yea go there is no going back. Also a great northern bugout system. Have a very little parastove in my BOB during winter. Thanks for watching!

Smoked kielbasa would have been good. Brown the meat first then add your water. Nice to see the winter camping again.
That does sound good! Thank for watching!
Excellent video, that looked like an awesome time! Outstanding!
hanks for watching!
I have an idea. Throw a box of firecrackers into your pack next time. Around midnight start waking up the dead. 😂

Okei, good! 😁👍👏👌💪🔥🇷🇺🏕️!!!

Yup via text message. I like when there is phone service in an area but then it becomes a distraction as start surfing the internet once camp is setup. It also another mouth to feed aka the phone eats power. Thanks for watching!
I like your tent..a lot lighter than a polish lavvu. And more room
xjeepmanx FYI, if you add on to your lavvu like a foot or two it's like a new shelter. I sewed exter canvas to mine and you could fit 3 to 4 ppl inside.
Good luck..
Brian Bagaciunis yes iv seen that done...good idea
Buddy, you gotta try adding a little beef broth and onion powder to your lentil soup. Thank me later. Great video too!
I will!
Terrific, but too cold for me....I prefer camping on south florida islands ( 10 thousand Island) when are you going to make video again in Florida
Yup. I want to get back into the big Cyprus when it's not flooded and hammock camp. However that will not be till maybe spring. Thanks for watching!
I really wish it would snow like that here in Kentucky ☹️
Walker, did you notice whether or not those fallen trees made a sound when they fell?
I've woken up screaming OH SH**!!! to the sounds of cracking and popping as a tree was about to fall over, and again as it slid down a hill colliding with several other trees, sounding like a bowling ally.
Love ur vids. Curious what size wood stove is that?
Seek Outside SXL. Thanks for watching!
Awsome
Thanks for watching!
Was that a stink bug?
Here in Ga we have a bug that looks like that and it’s like a tiny skunk lol
I think you are right. Thanks for watching!
Hey there Walker.
👍🏻⛺️ ❄️
That mermaid girl tho ;)
Hey WW
What light did you use? And what camera?
The lantern is a LR30, Headlamp is this. www.lumonite.com/en/lumonite_compass_r/ the camera was a Sony AS20 in camcorder shell. Often I leave the DSLR home as this has really good low light video IMHO.Thank for watching!
One more question...What does your loaded pack weigh pre-hike?
Less than one might expect. Guessing under 35 lbs but didn't put the pack on a scale etc. Thanks for watching!
Are you in the States or Canada?
Hocam çadırı nerden aldınız. Soba deliği nasıl yakmıyor çadırı
Soba bağlantısı cam elyaf olduğundan çadıra zarar vermez. Çadırı kolayca ısıtıyor. İzlediğiniziçin teşekkürler.
What state are you in? I thought you were in Florida?
The woods of New England. I go down to Florida from time to time. Thanks for watching!
Great video as per usual, is that the sxl stove?
Yes and thanks for watching!
Good morning Captain Walker good video as usual very merry Christmas Fabulous New Year James KCMO kilo Charlie Mike Oscar
Thanks brother.
brother, you need to use a ground cloth, if you do not buy one.... get a canvas to fit and then have someone sew a tarp on the bottom of the canvas (not just the edges but across the entire canvas) when you lay down the ground cloth you lay it so you side flaps (called sod cloth) are under your ground cloth, sealing any drafts. make sure your ground cloth is a little larger them the base dimensions of your tent.trust me i have been CW reenacting for 34 years+ in rain, mud, snow, and heat.

no problem
Is that George Clooney ?
LOL! Thanks for watching!
No Bacon this time.
You in Michigan?
The Woods of New England. Thanks for watching!
Ahh...Looked like the woods behind my house last night. We got hit with our first snow.
Your environmental score drops for releasing the carbon, that was locked up in the trees, into the air.
Wood will almost always beat fossil fuels for camping IMO.
He also released the carbon, that was locked up in the lentils, since you're keeping score.
WHERE IS THE FLOOR???
There is a ground cloth under my sleeping area but with the wood burning stove a total floor would be problematic in such a small shelter.
