Wow what a trip , from my watching you had The most Incredible weather. I am from Melbourne Australia ... to get such snow and sunshine only a little wind. Amazing trip.
Wow impressive.
Also in bad weather how do you navigate ? It must total complete white out.
I have planned the track in advance and made a gpx-track which I have downloaded to my handhold Garmin Montana and Fenix 5 watch. Gps-track on the Fenix is super useful.
Please I want to ask you how did you find this tent in very bad weather and very cold in very heavy rain and snow storms and high winds? - I want to buy a tent, but I do not know which is the best tent to buy, a tent (Svalbard 6 Camp) or a tent (KERON 4 GT) or a tent (HELIUM EXPEDITION DOME 6). please
Please advise me of your observations through your experience of this tent, what are the pros and cons of this tent, please
This is Helsport Spitsbergen X-Trem 3 Camp Tent and we use it primarily in winter seasons when we are skiing with a sledge. I wanted to buy the 4 Camp instead of the 3 Camp, but it was not on the market at the time.
It performs very well in heavy snow storms due to the shape, the many guy lines and the storm flaps.
In a snowstorm, the storm flaps improve the stability of the tent and no snow gets inside the tent. The AirFlow ventilation system ensures that we still get fresh air in the tent.
When we are skiing with a sledge, we have the tent in a Helsport sled bag for tent. It makes it very easy and fast to set up the tent, especially when it is windy. The poles, withs are tape in the joints so it is in two sections, are inside the channels when we pack down the tent in the sled bag. I do not know if you are able to do that with the Svalbard High X Camp.
I had the Bergans Helium Dome 3, but it was too complicated to set up in windy weather so I did sell it. I was not able to pack it in a sled bag as I do with the Spitsbergen.
I do not think the Keron 4 GT has storm flaps, and I will not use a tent in a snowstorm without storm flaps.

Thanks for your helpful info -
You mean double storms pflaps ?
but look I put a link to a video of using a geron 4 GT tent in a severe blizzard

Why is a helsport 3 or 4 or x trem tent better than a helsport 6 camp dome tent? - Is it because it is easier to install in severe snowstorms, or is the tent the shape of the tunnel better than the dome shape of the tent in strong snowstorms?
Hi ! Magnificent wintertrip and video. May I know how old you are ?
Thank you :) I was 62 and she was 72 when we did the trip :)
I agree with everyone’s positive comments, and here’s the BUT; only one shot after 12 minutes actually putting the tents and laying them out inside. No shots of equipment used, how food was cooked and prepared, and the video needed to be in English so 99.9% of the human race couldn’t understand a word. . No other language works on UA-cam.😢 anyway, who cares? You guys clearly had a blast.
Thanks for watching and comment on our video. There are some shots of the stove prepering food and water, but I didn´t mention any brand. I spoke in Norwegian, but all verbal speeking is translated into English in the subtitels. The subtitles may not appear automatically, if so, you must select it.
