Winter Camping Using Cheap Summer Gear, Is It Possible?
Ойын-сауық
I tested whether or not it is possible to use normal summer camping gear in a winter situation. Summer gear right down to the sleeping bag I used. The Sleeping bag is a Woods Canmore 4LB fill which is what I use in the summer and shoulder seasons. The tent is a cheap-o Ozark Trail tent from you know where. I had a run of the mill thermarest that was on sale of course, and my rickety old folding chair.
Dinner was a delicious faux thanksgiving feast using all canned or boxed ingredients.
The campground actually had free firewood, hard to believe.

Please forgive me on the audio, the levels all sound good when I edit on my laptop but then they are way off when I listen on a TV. I'm going to get some headphones for setting audio levels. Any technical guys here know what headphones would be good for setting audio levels?

When I was a kid my grandpa owned 100 acres of property on the side of a mountain in Mt. Vision NY. We had a camp site set up about half way up the mountain on a flat spot. I grew up in a suburban area on Long Island but every summer we lived for 2 weeks up there. I got to experience so many awesome things many of my city dwelling friends never got to experience. Watching Steve’s videos brings me back. Everyone needs to experience living out in the wild for a stretch.

You can easily turn a 3-season tent into a makeshift 4 season on using 2 mylar emergency blankets (that are a couple of bucks each. Put up the tent, but not the rain fly. Put one of the blankets on it, you can even add a blanket from home on top of that. Then put the rain fly on it. Use the second mylar blanket on the floor of the tent and you'd be surprised at how warm your summer tent can be in the winter.

We have a campground similar to that one here in my area in Ohio. It’s free to camp plus they provide big logs or wood slabs for firewood. We take our chainsaw to cut the wood and it’s nice burning wood! Even the permit needed to camp is 100% free!!! It’s nice, they have many different campgrounds with a ton of campsites, and they also have a very very nice one that’s geared more towards family with a huge playground and two huge ponds where kids can fish for free and if they catch a fish with a metal number tag they call it in abs receive a prize!!!

On summer tents in winter - remember your blanket fort? Use a few old blankets to create a inner shell matching the tent walls and hanging from any gear loops on the inside, or sew in your own. The one thing is that the shell must not, as you know, touch the tent walls or risk drawing moisture through osmotically.

@15:40 Steve you said it. That is exactly what my dad strived to instill in myself and all my friends when I was growing up in Idaho during the early 2000’s. Picking blackberries and fishing in Hells Canyon, gold panning, picking morels in the spring, all formative experiences in my life and all done on the cheap. Camping was about being outside and friends. I’m more of a backcountry backpacking type, so I’ve been wondering what it was about your videos I find so great and I think you summed it up perfectly. It’s “leaning against a tree and eating a can a beans” a simple but grandly human experience. Love your videos, eventually when I get my own camping funds up I’ll be able to start donating to the beer fund. Keep killing it! (P.s. give mountain house another shot, the chicken chili is fantastic. Their beef stew gives everyone the toots and is not pleasant.)

Thanks Miles! It is sad that camping is turning into a wealthy mans luxury, but I’ll keep finding ways for the rest of us to get out there. Cheers!

I grew up in suburban NYC and my most fond childhood memories are camping with my dad and my uncles upstate NY. I learned more valuable lessons there than I ever leaned in school. My dad is an amazing cook. We had some awesome campfire meals.
Got the same tent. Great for winter overnighters. Put a tarp over it to keep the heat in.
Watching these really old (as old as two years can be, I guess, but you've come so far) is fun knowing where you've wound up with this little KZread Channel, dude. You inspired ME to camp with nothing and I love the thrill. Happy you've got to where you are..
I love the cheap 3 man tents if you toss a tarp over them thay hold a lot of heat not realy shore h o w safe it is but iv done it
Love the dura logs, we are not godamned cave men.

They are clearances at Target...if you want a 6 pack of duraflame.
I always bring the wax fire logs from Loblaws. Really cheap and start with a match. One log burns for three hours. I always mix them with wood. Great if its raining or wet wood. Great video
The eyes in the woods is some of the spookiest footage ever. Thank you so much I loved it.
Love it just a simple overnighter. Allot of the County campgrounds here lock the gate but some list that winter camping is okay; just don't want you to drive in so you have to park at the gate. Since its really only one crazy guy like me not much worry on parking. Just sucks to have to ask always stresses me out that the person you talk to may not be the guy that calls to get your car towed.
Just found your channel not too long ago. I love camping but haven't gotten a chance to go in about 5 years since my elderly mother started needing constant close care. I feel like I get to experience it through your videos though. Thank you for that. I like everything about your videos. Don't change anything please. From watching you set camp to cooking, it's all great and very relaxing. Great job.
Beautiful photography in a beautiful spot. Wow. Those who don't do winter camping are missing out, and that's a good thing for those who do.
Always appreciate watching your step two and dinner ideas!
I've never heard of free firewood at a campsite in America.

I’ve seen free firewood at BLM sites in the Eastern Sierra. Only place I’ve ever seen it though!
I was relieved there was a background shooter. The ambience of potential danger or discovery is the essence of camping with Steve.

It isn't a camping with steve unless there is some constant looming threat of danger.
Love going back & watching the old vids..take care everyone.. love step 2
Hi, Steve. I'm not a big camper, but I find your vids relaxing and amusing. Thank you for the uploads!
Your videos are super relaxing to watch. Keep up the good work Steve!

Even here in the Mojave desert of California I use a -15F /-26C rated bag in the winter. Temperatures only ever drop to sometimes 17F / -8C. Cold by our standards, but having that bag and a down Parka make a world of difference! I use my summer camping gear for everything else.
Well, that tent doesn’t look like it’s going to hold off a grizzly, but perhaps they’re all sleeping till spring that’s gonna be a darn good meal one of my favorites Cheryl and Jim standing by salivating
07:48 a moment of zen, I'll never forget this - one of the best moments ever in your videos Steve
the liquid in the turkey can would be flavor, and should have been dumped right into the pot
I love how you give a detailed overview in the morning about the experience. Love you Steve keep up the good work, you're a beast.

SAVAGE STEVE.......Hunkering Down!!!!!!!
Man that takes me back to my teenage years in Nova Scotia. Camping in the middle of a blizzard in a Summer tent and cheap sleeping bag. Warm clothing is the key. Especially a warm hat and socks and some black rum. Thanks for the cool videos Steve.
Every year Steve is one of the few to experience two thanksgivings, one in October, then one the very next month. Happy eating Steve....and Winter camping.
"step two, which is: Beer."

I think that moose just wanted to site beside the fire with you and share a step 2 . Great stuff.
23:00 just an idea I use it for my butane cookstove. Take two of the hand warmers and set them below the tank, this will keep the butane in the state it should be. :)
Hey Steve! You rock my Thursday nights. UK fan here having a beer and watching stuff then gonna hunker down. It's only +5c tonight so not too bad.

I'm hunkered down in the middle of goddam St. Louis, hoping not to get hit by a stray bullet and camping vicariously through you. I'd feel safer in Canada with those crazy hunters and marauding moose.

Why would anyone chose to live where you never know when some gangster slings a stray bullet that could have your name on it just because having that piece in their hand makes them feel like they're some kind of hard ass? Sure somebody out in the country could Benoit shooting and a stray bullet could still come your way but it happens way less in the stick that it does in the hood. Brother you should get your family outta that situation and live where you felt safe with your family

@@frankmaxfield7025 Yea, well, me too, (Detroit). But what you gonna do? Born, raised, married, work. One kid living here, and the other all "settled-in" to High-School. But truth be told, there's a world of difference between "the hood" and the suburbs here, (although things tend to be getting closer).
Steve, your ability to withstand the cold is astonishing. I could never sleep on the ground in the winter. I need my double layered hammock with a top cover, under quilt, top quilt, and tarp XD but i also like to sleep in just my base layer and no socks...probably my issue XD maybe i should start packing a bottle of whiskey on my adventures haha
Just recently arrived here on the channel :), now I've watched so many videos that I read "Steve's Soup" on the red box of that soup lol! Wouldn't be surprised though, to see an actual soup recipe created by Steve and sold..to be enjoyed with step twos! Cheers from Europe!
The best thing about this channel is Steve seems like a regular guy and he seems to actually like camping. And he doesn't pretend it's survival like on some channels or "bushcraft."
