Winter Camping in a hot tent with woodstove/diesel heater | Snow and Freezing Temps (our first time)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- We got ourselves a fishing shelter that we have converted into a hot tent. This is our very first time winter camping ever, and our first time setting up this tent. It got pretty cold -14 Celsius and very snowy. We also got a WinnerWell wood stove so we were able to cook and have a nice warm tent and fired up our brand new diesel heater. Hope you enjoyed the video! Please like comment and subscribe :)
Nothing beats Caminus stoves and rbm all season tents for me! I love the video tho! 😍
What’s an rbm tent? And where can we find one? Lol we are looking for another hot tent for this coming winter :)
Looks like fun. Some relax time with spouse.
We had a lot of fun winter camping. We are just about to get our diy truck camper ready for some spring camping …nice to go out and relax for sure😀
Dang! That was a serious set-up! I've only ever winter-camped alone, with what I could carry in on my back. The hot tent with real meals looked amazing, and you both obviously enjoyed yourselves. And that's really the point, isn't it?
The black stuff on the stove window is just soot, btw. You can clean it off easily. It will also cook off when the stove gets hot enough.
Thank you so much!!! Lol it was a lot of work that’s for sure, but had so much fun! We are currently working on ways to make winter camping a bit easier to bring our stuff. Thanks for watching :)
How did your diesel heater work? My son and I had the same ecperience last year with a similar set up and he would like to add a deisel heater to the mix.
Excellent from start to finish. I was curious as to what the temperature was inside the tent.
Also, that was the definition of a meal. It's a good thing I ate earlier.
Thank you! We are unsure of the actual temperature inside the tent, but there were times we had to open the tent door because it had gotten too hot! Thanks for watching, we are looking forward to taking this tent out in the fall now that it’s getting cooler out.
I have never camped but watch a lot of them. The experienced ones clear the area first before putting up the tent.
Too bad you didn’t mention that before we made that video cause it was our very first time winter camping lol 😂
@@herethereadventures 🫢😁 Watch the ones with #snow #blizzard #. I really enjoy ‘outdoor boys’ and ‘fish13’.
Hook your sled up to a s snowmobile would save you hours traversing. :-)
Hahahaha we learned that quickly and did that in the next video lol
I don't understand this, I did this three different times with 3 different ladies. Every time after we got back they dumped me. Why, I don't know, as I let them do everything setup tent, cut the wood, start the fire and cook us meals. I had a fun time watching them and drinking my beers.
Lol who can understand women lol!!!
I want to start camping like this. How does one keep bear and other animals away from the food smell? Also why does the tent not have a floor.
Just bring a buddy with you and tie their shoes together, now you don’t have to out run the bear, just your buddy lol.
But not to worried about bears in the winter, we hope they are hibernating. Also the tent we used was a ice fishing tent, so it doesn’t come with a floor. But most hot tents we have seen do not come with floors also. Thanks for watching :)
Dude, sharpen that cleaver! In its current condition, it’s only good for spreading cream cheese.
You’re very right! We will work on that, but on a positive note we do love cream cheese lol
Did the Diesel heater get damaged by the snow? How has it been working out for you? Thank you!
No it has not. It is a contained unit that apparently can be used outside… for how long we aren’t sure lol. It was our first and only time we used it. Thanks for watching :)
Hello. Your trip is amazing. I have to disassemble, assemble and maintain diesel Chinese heaters and as a result I have to state the fact that their electronics are not protected from moisture in any way. There is no moisture protection in the control panel, cable connections and control board, so it is best to "put" the device in some kind of box. Good luck 😉
Glad to see you guys! Great setup! Happy with the diesel heater?? Gear review would be awesome!! 👌 great upload!
It was our first time with that tent, woodstove and diesel heater. Will definitely update when we use it a few times. Thanks for watching :)
I WONDERING HOW MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IT COST TO SET THIS UP JUST TO BE OUT IN THE COLD.. BUT I DO WISH YOU HAD A GREAT TIME
Yes you are right, it isn’t cheap. But if it’s something you enjoy doing like anything else it is worth it. And now we have it forever and whenever we want to use it :) thanks for watching!
Where's the cooking oil butter????
At what point is this not even camping anymore. Full bed. Fireplace. Fans. Car battery. Electricity. And to top it all off you brougt the wife unit. Smh. Lol
Lmaoooo!!!!! Wife unit wanted all of that in order to go out winter camping lol! Hahahahah
I'm sorry but this isn't camping.
Everyone has their own idea of camping, but the bottom line for everyone is to be out having fun and camping it how they enjoy it.
I have asked many times and no one has gotten back to me. Why are tents no longer have floors. There has to be a reason
This tent in particular is an ice fishing tent, so it doesn't have a floor. We have noticed a lot of the hot tents have no floor or a removable one. We assume its because of the ability to add a woodstove but not really sure if thats the reason.
Thanks for watching :)
Next time just stay at home, you pretty much already there
Lol well we did miss bringing the tv so not quite home. We were roughing it lmao 😂
There is no way that wood stove couldn’t heat that tent. From a fellow winter camper
That’s very true! We just were lazy and did not want to get out of bed to put wood in the fire when we were sleeping lol. Thanks for watching :)
This time of year, when I’m so done with Summer, I start watching Winter adventures again! Subscribed!
Funny you should say that! We were just saying the same thing talking about winter camping. Can’t wait! 😊
Wow! Congratulations on this video taking off! I just finished my winter tent camping adventure and uploaded my video yesterday and it recommended yours so here I am watching !! So I’m subscribing!!
Thank you so much!!! We were surprised too! We will def check your channel out! Thanks for watching :)
Man, there is nothing like working hard to get camp set up, the snow is falling, then hearing the first fast ticks of a diesel heater as it kicks on… you know it’s going to be a good night 😊
You are so right!! We had such an excellent time and it’s so peaceful! We are planning a lot more camping for this coming winter. Thanks so much for watching :)
It looks like a lot of fun.....but I don't want to work that hard for a good time!!!
Lol not going to lie, it was a lot of work. We are thinking of new ways now to make winter camping much easier. We only have 7 months to figure it out lol
Too much work
You guys could have made so much money from this video if you had setup an Amazon affiliate account and put all the links to the products in the description! Just saying, but great video!
Thanks for watching! We thought about that too but a little too late. We are fairly new at this whole thing but we are learning lol :)
This trip looks like a lot of fun but it sure is a lot of work to get set up. Stay warm, safe and enjoy
It was so much fun, but you are right…it was a lot of work to get it set up. It was our first time, trying to figure out a better method to make it easier lol working on it hahaha
Thanks for watching :)
YES! Way Too Much Work...I am a 'minimalist'...just give me 1)shelter 2)food 3)water 4)and a sleeping bag and clothing for warmth...jobsdone.
Camping is about get in touch with nature and yourself. This isnt camping. Why even bother leaving home if u need all this.
Lol mainly cause we want too, and everyone has their own idea of having fun camping. Bring your gf or wife with you and she’ll have her own ideas on how to have fun camping lol
I think you might be better in the city. You don't possess the skills to survive in the woods.
Hahahah lol we agree!
Nice video, thank you, was surprised your woodstove wasn’t enough to heat your tent. I have a 16’ dia. X 10’ tall tent, I use a woodstove about the same size and it’s awesome but I put about an 1 1/2” dirt inside covering the bottom. Wood burns slower more even with a greater heat output. You can also use fire brick that comes in various thicknesses. You will truly feel the difference and enjoy it much more.
We agree the woodstove made it very hot in there, too hot at times. We just didn’t want to get up to put wood in the fire when sleeping so we swapped out to the diesel heater. We are looking into bio blocks which apparently last up to 6 hours in a woodstove. Is that the fire brick you are talking about? Thanks for watching :)
@@herethereadventures fire brick is actual brick lining on the inside of a stove - it protects the metal from heat, stores heat and radiates it for a longer time once the fire is low
that is very interesting! thanks for telling us about it!@@Gabi-zq6jv
I like your video but man the meat turned gray that's like terminal for me let me tell you a secret get two cast iron pants put them on the fire get them so hot they don't smoke then get your meat seasoned of course throw it in one of the pans get the secondary pan and put it on top of it so you have two pans facing up 3 minutes like that you got the best steak you ever had in your life sir I know what I'm talking about I'm from Texas
Just get an RV and be done with it. LOL.....Looks fun though.
Hahahhahahaha!!!! RVs aren’t great for deep snow and off roading lol but we are picking up what you are putting down lol hahahaha thanks for watching :)
He made sure they had everything to make the woman comfortable.
Happy wife happy life lol! Thanks for watching :)
That clicking noise is the fuel pump…the more premium models will rubber mount them and use a quieter fuel pump so that clicking won’t drive use crazy, can do some research and swap out with new pump and better install depending on how it’s installed, it sounds like it’s bolted right to the case so the sound resonates like tapping a hammer on it…also if one was to purchase a diesel heater it’s just a small low volume low psi pump so In colder weather -20 and colder strongly suggest adding an anti gel to your diesel for better fuel quality and easier on the pump
Thanks so much for the ideas, they sound great! That noise does really bother us but we have noticed the higher you turn the blower on the clicking sound gets less noticeable. We will definitely look into your ideas to make it quieter :) thanks so much!
Ice fishing hut as a hot tent...that's a novel idea...seems to work fine!
Thank you for the great video. I really enjoyed watching a couple enjoying each others company. God bless you both
Thank you! That’s a very nice comment :) hope you continue to watch our videos, we do have a lot of fun making them and want to make them more often.
The floor pads are genius!! What an idea, when you put the tarp down I was thinking you two were going to tripping and slipping the whole time! Great video, thanks for sharing your adventure!!
Thank you so much for watching! The floor pads really help not slipping! When we first put the tarp down it was like ice to walk on lol 😂
Dunno if that HOT tent is accurate … she wearing 2 hoodies, thermo overalls and a beanie bruh ….. lol maybe call it a warm ish tent
Lol it was actually really warm in there! I’m just normally always on the colder side.
I am burning to ask this for someone that has a tent like this specially a double one
Are these ⛺ waterproof and do they come with a floor?
This tent is not waterproof and does not come with a floor. It’s actually a insulated ice fishing tent. If you were to use it during rainy situations we would recommend putting a tarp over the roof as it would most definitely leak. Thanks for watching :)
I just happened to stumble upon your video. It's great. Living here in Michigan where it does get cold, this past December I bought a 6 x 12 tent just like yours from another company. This will be my new deer hunting tent/cabin. And, I already have the diesel heater too. Up here people use them for ice fishing in freezing weather, why not use it for a portable hunting cabin? Thanks for sharing.
That’s awesome!! It would totally work for a potable hunting cabin! These tents are well insulated compared to other regular tents. Also the speed of setting it up and tearing down is great. Thanks so much for watching, enjoy Michigan camping… we would like to check it out one day 😊 thanks for watching!
A square shovel would work much better than a spade
Thanks for the tip! It was the only other shovel we had with us but we will definitely keep that in mind for the next trip lol thanks for watching!
I’m sure that tent will smell like smoke forever.
lol 😂 it totally does!
Interesting video. It seems as if this expedition was a bit of a learning experience for you.Fascinated by your wood stove with the gizmo halfway up the exhaust pipe..never seen that before. Good luck with you future adventures.
Lol!!! You are absolutely correct we are not experienced with any of our stuff lol. It was our first time using that tent, wood stove and diesel heater. That gizmo is our stove pipe oven and it’s very cool!
We are actually going to be taking our stove and oven out tomorrow and using it out of our diy truck camper :) thanks so much for watching!
That was AMAZING Thank you so much for sharing , an amazing set up looked lovely
Thank you so much for the nice comment! We had a great time 😊
Just for next time. Lay your ground sheet first then put tent on top.
We def might try that next time! Thanks :)
Дружная семья! С одной идеей! У вас всё получилось. Желаю успеха. Привет из Владивостока!
Hi what is that thing above the stove that looks like a stove😂
How is it called?
Thanks
It’s called a stove pipe oven, and it just sits in one section of pipe. It is a little oven and works great! Thanks for watching :)
Два індіанці під однією ковдрою не замерзнуть !
Haha! True!
There is way too much going on in this adventure!!!!!
Lol!
HEy everyone has to start somewhere. Nothing wrong with that! You will get this all figured out just keep at it! Looks like you had fun anyway! Keep it up! I do suggest that you look into different bags though. Your "sleep system" looks like it needs some attention. I feel like you will learn NOT to drag most of your earthly possessions with you too. But you will learn that pretty quickly! Have fun and do more of it! You will get the hanf of it!
Thanks for watching! And very true on all accounts lol. Our sleep system definitely needs improvement. We got a lot of new stuff that we wanted to try out for camping. This was our very first time winter camping in a tent so it was an adventure for sure hahahah. Our diy truck camper made things much easier and organized lol. We are thinking now we may need a snowmobile, we would really enjoy ice fishing with this setup :)
I have seen others use an insulated rug to put down. The feet don't get cold
That’s a great idea! Thanks we will look into that!
😂😂😂😂 i have no understanding… why they take a tent, they can move the hole house, it seam it must be empty. 😂😂😂 … Logistic for this camping must be crazy. 😂😂🎉🎉❤
We are currently working on making it easier with a snowmobile and a sleigh. But yes it was a lot of work lol
@@herethereadventures i hope you don`t misunderstood me… its a nice Tube and a nice Tent.. very cool (in all things)
We know what you meant and we agree 😊
thats the nicest camping setup iv ever seen
Thank you so much! We had a lot of fun!! :)
Thank 😊
4:27 that’s an awesome setup. I wish I could afford one of these. I so want to go winter camping without freezing to death in my little 3 man dome tent. I only have summer gear. But happy for you
It’s so much fun! We are looking forward to this winter already. But you are right, it is pricey… we are currently looking at other hot tents to try out this coming winter. Thanks for watching :)
Nice tent it's kinda like a double clam shell yall need to review it when you've used it awhile good to see yall back
Thanks! We totally will! Got it mostly for next year for ice fishing, but we couldn't wait, had to try it lol
Love it bro, subscribed. I'm about to embark on the same except I'm coming for South Louisiana where there has hardly ever been snow. I'm so excited!! Great video my man🐾🐾👊
That’s awesome, we have always talked about doing a truck camping road trip down to the southern states. Would love to go to Louisiana! Have fun :) thanks for watching!!
All the pleasures and comforts of home how fast could you pack up and bug out in a split second notice with out leving half or more of that behind in a diet. Case of survivle bug out I can't see how people place recreational camping in bushcraft survivle with out all the comforts of home
Did you stake your tent down? In case of high winds
We didn’t that time, there wasn’t much wind we had to worry about and had lots of trees to block the wind. The tent also weighs over 70 lbs but we did see videos of people using it ice fishing and it just blows away, so we would def stake it down with the included ice stakes that screw into the frozen ground/ice. Thanks for watching 😊
Tent is to cramped to have a wood burning stove, and No bottom. Didn’t like this one. Thanks for the video though, I can rule out the otter.
You go all the way out there and your drinking Folgers?
Well the best part of waking up…is Folgers in your cup! Hahah but also we couldn’t find a Starbucks out there lmao 😂
Setting a wood burning stove on a wood platform? Makes me nervous for you. At least cover it with foil. Something fireproof.
That is a cracking set up you have. You would need a big trailer to haul all that equipment. A bit much for just 1 night, but for more than 1 its first class.🙏
We admit it was a lot! We are working on a sleigh currently to pull our stuff in with a snowmobile so we don’t have to take that many trips. Thanks for watching :)
I find vinegar good for cleaning the glass on the stove
Awesome we will try that!! Thanks!
I hope this message isn't too late. We are looking to purchase our first wood stove and saw yours and fell in love!! May I ask which name brand and model that one is?
It is the winnerwell nomad large stove :) we have a fall camping video in which there is a link for the stove and oven in the description. Thanks for watching :)
Awesome setup basically a studio apartment in the middle of the forest. I would love to do this but I would be concerned about wild animals and would have to bring protection, a 12 gauge with slugs and my 9mm and some bear spray. I’m probably overthinking it but I’d rather have it and not need it then need it and not have it.
We are hoping the bears are hibernating where we are and the next worst thing is coyotes. We hear you tho, would rather not need the stuff than to not have it at all, but when In doubt just sleep with one eye open lmao
luckily the car/pickup is nearby , to drag all this stuff there , and the fire outside is for ???
Lol the fire was for marshmallows and to keep the polar bears away hahaha
What a set up! After all the work I hope your planning to stay at least a week! Do you experience a lot of condensation inside the tent?
It was a big setup lol! We did notice some condensation in there especially a lot on the windows. But overall not to bad! Thanks for watching :)
It’s all looks great! But I always wondered- About the bathroom needs, such as going to the per and poops! How do the campers do that?? I never did camping before! Judy curious!
There are a lot of options for using the bathroom while camping. We might make a video at some point about bathroom options. Thanks for watching :)
Hope u have a VERY powerful loaded rifle.
He says he can run faster than me so he doesn’t need a gun hahahah :)
I'm now here and there with both of you ,,, I enjoy watching your video,, love it when both of you talked to audience
Thank you so much!! We had a great time and still getting used to all of this. Thanks so much for watching :)
How well did that diesel heater work out ? ...Alan in 🇨🇱
Well we did forget the remote and instructions at home, but for the very first time using it, it worked out great. We kept it on a very low setting when we slept and it kept the tent reasonably warm. We will be taking it out more in future videos and will try and figure it out more lol. Thanks for watching :)
If that was cookie dough in my opinion it should've stayed cookie dough. If I had been making them it never would've reached cookie status. But that's just me.
Lol there wasn’t enough room in the little oven for all of the cookie dough, so way ahead of you lol!!! Thanks for watching :)
Might help if you try it at home before you are in a snow storm😳
Lmao! Wish you would have told us that sooner lol 😂
His pants tighter than hers😂😂😂 dope video tho
Hahahahha!!!! that’s how we roll 😂😂😂
Why didn’t you drive your stuff to the tent?
We gotta old snowmobile and currently working on a sleigh to pull behind so we will be able to drive to it lol! Thanks for watching :)
Y a tent with no floor?
Fyi next time place the controller in the tent
Good idea!
To the person reading this comment, it's okay, it's okay to feel lonely sometimes, if you're going through tough times, god will be with you.
Amen
I hope he was with them with that diesel heater, it sounded like they weren’t sure about it at one point!
lmao!
@@herethereadventures thanks for taking it with good humour! 👍
Lol you were spot on with that comment! We too had our fingers crossed 😂
where's the portable hot tub guys?
We are working on that! Stay tuned lol 😂
I don't think they would allow this set up on "Alone" ;) Glamping in the winter even, nice
LOL!! Too bad this tent wouldn’t fit in our backpack! We are talking about making a more basic camping video without the bells and whistles but I ( female half) definitely prefer to glamp it lol but it will be interesting to try it. Thanks for watching :)
Hi. LIKE. LIKE. SCENERIES. LANDSCAPE. CAMPING.
Us too!!! Thanks for watching :)
That diesel hearer needs to be in the tent just run the exhaust to the outside the controls really need to be in the tent. Wood stove and that heater and there wearing jackets
We thought of that as an option but it takes more work and we we’re running out of time. We did have a co2 detector but didn’t want to think about it. Hard to sleep wondering if the co2 detector is even going to work if needed lol
Nice to see a couple and not some Bigfoot looking man and his dog lol. I'm only going to say this, it may help. "The vent pipe"
What do you mean by vent pipe? The tent has 2 vents built in that we left open. And we aren’t Bigfoot yet…luckily I have small feet (female half) hahahahahhaha
Is that the medium or large sized Winnerwell stove? Do you think the small stove would be sufficient with that insulated Otter tent?
We have the large size winnerwell stove. We do think that the medium size would work as well with that tent because the large made it very warm in there, we had to open the door of the tent a few times to cool it down…Thanks for watching!
@herethereadventures1284 I am thinking of getting the small stove, and maybe a slightly smaller tent. Thanks for the reply.
Run the heater control into the tent
Great idea! We just got to get longer wires to run the control into the tent. The wires that came with are only 6 inches long. We do have a remote, but forgot it of course. It was our first time using it in the video.
I have two of those heaters so I now put the diesel heater inside and run the thermostat and exhaust outside
The second thing that exhaust fits right into the port for your power cord you don’t need to run it on the ground like that. I also have a monster lodge.
That’s very interesting! We will definitely have to try that! You aren’t worried the exhaust is too hot to go through the canvas? Also did you have to disconnect the muffler and reconnect to get it through the port hole? Or does it already fit? Thanks!
I search for new "camping adventures" a lot. There are plenty to pick from, as many have jumped on the band wagon. I found yours, and was attracted to the Novice, but pleasing, vibe. You have the basics of a potentially great experience! It's hard to quantify... but the feeling of "real, experimental fun" is a winner. I was going to offer advice regarding the editing, but I realized that some of the soft spots were what made it all more appealing. I'm gonna subscribe, and hope to see more. Thanks.
Wow! You pretty much described us to a T! We just bought a side by side to take camping with us as well, which will also be a new experience for us. Hope you enjoy watching us learn the hard way on what not to do, as we seem to do that every time hahaha! Thank you so much for the honest comment because we fully agree with you. Thanks for watching :)
Great idea. Perhaps a snowmobile and a larger transport sled.
Have a fantastic time 3:17
Thanks so much! We actually got an old snowmobile to use this winter and we are in the process of making a diy sleigh to pull behind it. Thanks for watching :)
Wow , that is an awesome stove . I love the built in oven. ❤
We love it too! We are getting ready to take it out soon with our hot tent. We are going to try and make pizza in it too, we have had the oven over 400 degrees. Thanks so much for watching :)
You can buy USB power packs and USB lights that last a long time. No need for that huge battery. You could have also heated that tent with the woodstove, you can put a lot of wood in it
Thanks for the ideas about the usb!! We will look into that! The only reason we used the diesel heater was so that we wouldn’t have to get up every 2-3 hours to put wood in it. Thanks for watching :)

Thank you.
Great video.
I'm from Portland Maine.👍
Thanks for watching!
you tow made same mistake as i have seen before the air intake goies inside you will use a lot less desile
We have seen people using it both ways. This way was much easier and faster to set up. We would have used less fuel maybe but we only used 2 litres of diesel fuel in 8 hours so not to bad.
What, no espresso machine?
We are working on that, and also a hot tub lol
So, what do you guys do if a hungry, hungry grizzly pokes his head inside your tent to see if there are any tasty humans to eat?
LOL!!! He says he can run faster than me, so its sounding like a "me problem" hahahahaha. He also likes to tie my boots together when I go to bed so it takes me longer to run with short steps lol
Why does every camping video turn into a cooking show?
Lol cause we forgot our hot tub and also there is not a whole lot of things to do in the winter aside from chasing squirrels lmao
Id hate to pack all that stuff back to the house me I probably leave it all behind for someone else to have
Lol you are right! It is a lot of work, currently thinking of ideas to make it easier :)
this is why we dont take women camping!
Hahahhaha!!! Happy wife, happy life!!! Also who doesn’t like fresh baked cookies 😂
i totally get you on that point just sayin you should just get her a trailer that she can deck out because most people our age dont survive that activity. i have 160 acres and i am a removal specialist['i pick up the dead] i have witnessed tragedy weekly because some guy is trying to keep mama happy. please respect what life you have left and be safer. you dont get a second chance. just sayn.
@@herethereadventures
And try putting a handle bars on the back. That way you could pushing easier.
We just picked up a snowmobile so we are hoping this will solve a lot of our problems lol
Wow it's very good idea
I like this comping your wonderful guys💪
Thank you very much!! So glad you enjoyed, we did too. And i was able to make cookies too...BONUS lol
Thanks for watching :)
Just like at home, hope you enjoyed 👍
We enjoyed it soo much! Looking forward to going out again :) Thanks for watching!!
Im going to guess the cookies taste like charcoal
pls, where did you buy oven ?

@@herethereadventures thanks :)
Why would you not clear the snow before putting down the tent
Lol two reasons, one didn’t think that far ahead and two didn’t want to shovel more than we had too haha
