I know this is based on modern tech. In bug out situation id go with canvas for durability. This is why i have a GP small from ww2. For tent stakes i use potato digger chain for pounding in with sledgehammer. In bug out its easier to blend canvas into the background. Big problem with tent stoves is maintaining the fire.

@@dickburns1749 You make a very compelling argument indeed canvas is a more rugged material which was used A lot in the 1900s for work camps. If weight is not an issue and you're not so concerned about water or you're going to compliment your canvas tent with an additional tarp to prevent water ingress then indeed a canvas tent can be a good idea. However they are a bit more difficult to set up but for a semipermanent shelter they Are certainly more rugged. The only downside of course is when you have to pack up and leave and you run outta gas lol that's a lot the haul on your back

Valid point on gas shortage lol. If the canvas is trated well with linseat oil (as i believe they did back then) it will handle heavy rain out. In a bug out situation you should have a location picked out with good vantage point. In this situation you would preferably have a small group with you. If the tent needed relocated yo can use the center pole to carry between 2 persons putting about 150lbs per person. Still i do agree with the mor mobile tent for mobility

The infamous tents that led to being stranded in the snowy forest

One more comment - advice for using the wood stove in the lavvo 6 - the heat rises to the top so the bottom 2 or 3 feet of the tent is usually cold and condensation builds up - the upper part of the tent is bone dry as the heat dries up the moisture. Buy a stove heat powered fan. The air circulation is a game changer. Absolutely makes all the difference in the world. I’ll never use it in winter without the fan again. Cheers.

As a Norwegian i'm kinda proud seeing you use Nortent. Have been using the lavvo (tipi) tent you're showcasing here several times this winter and i usually sleep better in it then i do at home. Great video!

I appreciate you sharing your knowledge on these hot tents. Both the pros and cons. Even though financially most can not afford these tents, it's the knowledge of the whole spectrum to survival. Can one survive without one , and do a make shift properly? Yes, knowledge and skills goes along way. Thank you for your insightful wisdom and going the extra mile of demonstration.

Great video CP! Appreciate the struggles you went through to get it done.

The Man, the Legend, Canadian Prepper. Wish you the best for 2021 for you and your family.

Great idea. I never thought about adding a stove pipe exit hole in a tent. Awesome idea. I don't live in a snowy area but it does get cold( cold to us anyway).

I guess this was earlier before the big episode!! Definitely Dome Tent! HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 🎉 Enjoy your family especially the kids. God bless 🙏

Happy to see you came back home to edit that video after your crazy night 👍. happy new year to you as well. Altough with 2020 and likley 2021 it can sound akward

Great vid. I’ve been comparison shopping tipis & stoves for a while. Very helpful.

Some good points discussed. Good job.

Its interesting to watch these cold weather orientated videos. Here in western Australia we have pretty mild winters. Rare to hit 0°c at night mainly is around 5-10°c at night. Our main issue is the heat and the lack of water. Last 7 days its been 36-39°c most days with warm nights.

I like hot tents and I have a couple myself. One feature that might be worth mentioning favoring the tipi tents are that you really don't need to bring tent stakes or a tent pole. These can be made from natural materials. I think your video is missing a clip at 4:45. Happy new year.

I never thought about camping in the winter until I watched a guy set up a big canvas tent, use a stove made for tents, and just go on about how the smell reminded him of hunting this way as a kid. In the summer you have all the skeeters and bugs out, but this looks really nice with the snow, and just looks fun. God bless.

I've been having an internal debate on dome vs cone for my hunting hot tent rig. Great timing.

Happy New Year CP - it's gonna be great🌠

Happy New Year Mate. Thank you

HAPPY NEW YEAR CANADIAN PREPPER!!!!!! THANKS FOR A GREAT YEAR!!!!! THANKS FOR ALL THE VIDEO'S YOU MADE THIS YEAR FOR US TO WATCH!!!!! SEE YOU NEXT UPCOMING YEAR CANADIAN PREPPER!!!

Living in Southern USA we don't get a lot of cold weather camping but for the occasional cold trip we use our summer tent (6 person dome) with a couple of Harbor Freight packing blankets stitched together and draped over, rainfly on after that. That's enough to hold the heat from a Mr. Buddy and keep us toasty at night. Necessity is the mother of invention!

Awesome vid. I've been looking at options for next year's hunting trips. Still leaning towards canvas just because it will be drive in to camp and hike or ebike out for the hunt

Amazing video, fantastic production quality and absolutely worth getting stuck in the woods for :D

Videos just keeping getting better !!!

Happy New Year !!!!🥂🍾. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 🙂👍

Thumbs up every time, Thanks, and Respect.

Happy 2021 Canabdian Prepper!

There is another style of tent not mentioned that is starting to become more popular. It’s the hub tent. Setup time is 20 seconds max. Some have insulated material which means no condensation inside and better warmth. Just watch the snow load on the roof or bring a painters pole along.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year!!!

Happy new year! 😊

Tipi, deep snow or not. Easy to set up and stake. Great with a stove, you could use a small tree for the pole saving you a little weight backpacking. Love 'em.

Excellent not coming from a cold environment this information is very interesting thanks and helpful.🍻👏👏👏

Great video, made me feel cold just watching! I like the look of the dome tent myself.

Here's the video that caused you some stress to make... Did you manage to get your truck fixed? Thanks for the great content and the hardship you go through to make it. We appreciate it 🤠👍

I was just thinking about these tents. You read my mind CP.

Lately I’ve been watching a lot of guys using insulated pop up fishing shacks which where I live wouldn’t work we get rain in the winter and they don’t look water proof and at 50# without a sled and snow would be a pain but up north looks like a good option

The dome is great! Also side idea, imagine gazelle canopy and make your own jack stove, definitely half the cost.

The teepee doesn’t need you to bring a centre poll or you can easily replace the pole with any nearby tree. You could even use an existing tree that you cut off at the 7’ mark or hang the peak from an overhead branch.

Hey Canadian Prepper! I’ve been watching your channel for years but have been in “stealth mode” regarding Prepardeness. 😂 2020 has taught me it’s time to get involved in community. Happy New Year from beautiful British Columbia 🥳

Those tents are fine for short term but if you are going out and staying out for a week or more, a canvas wall tent is the way to go. Sure it is heavy but there are options in all seasons to transport a base camp load to where you need it. With the exception of weight, a canvas wall tent is superior by every measurable standard. Also, for the price of the nortent you can get a really nice wall tent.

From my personal research it appears that Kodiak canvas tents are definitely some of the best quality tents out there, plus some of the most cost savings as well:)

Great job is always want to wish you and yours happy New Year

Excellent presentation!!! Personally I think I would want the dome but teepee is better in some situations.

Great video as usual Happy New Year to you and yours and I assume you've seen the Four Season insulated hot tents that are made by manufacturer in Russia and now sold in the United States and I believe Canada not cheap but something to look into if you haven't already blessings and give a big tummy scratch or to your wonderful canine family

Our Arctic Fox hot tent by Esker is nice because it has half the stake down points the true teepee style does. It is a little difficult to set up though and probably weighs a signifcant amount more because it's canvas. The wood stove for it also weighs over 40lbs so taking into the bush requires a sled.

I like this video, but I like more the last video when you stuck there with your pickup, that video give the idea to be almost a real prepper 100%, 👍😁

Great video thanks

I use the "Eureka Assault 4" tent $600. As long as your in sunshine and its 0 degrees outside, this tent is 50° inside. As i write this it's 50° out here and it's approx. 90° inside. Got to open the zippered doors to cool off.

GREAT 😆👍🏻 Á-B comparison. A dome tent for me (someday).

I have been thinking about modifying an ice fishing tent for winter camping. They are already double-wall insulated and if I could put a stove and chimney in one I bet it would be incredibly warm.

Another great video 👍

Having had a nortent tipi 6 I’d go for the dome! The staking, the wall sag, and having to frequently re-tension… A great tent and used it many times, but the dome is the way to go for me.

Outstanding video. Love my Gamme 4 and Tipi 4.

Great video!! keep up the good work.

Tipi design seems good because you don't have to use a center pole at all if you have a tree branch overhead, you can just suspend with cord from tree branch, or cut a pole in the woods.

I'm homeless in the Sierra Nevada Mountains I needed this review.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 🍾 NATE

Never knew they existed , thanks

Another great video!!! Can we get some products that are for comfort? Too old for all that no pain no gain crap. Alot of us want a video for easy set up and a good Expresso.

8:38 in the pyramid there is less space for hot air to distribute, so there will be hot air in lower altitude than in the dome where it has more room to expand on top(?) it is just an hypothesis

Happy New Year 2021!

Very informative, thank you Nate! I've been researching hot tents for a few months now, and I believe either one would suffice for an extended period as both would require regular, if not daily, maintenance because weather exposure is unpredictable. However, in my experience, I've always taken a few extra steps to protect my shelter when encountering gnarly weather; simple things such as location by considering wind direction combined with rain, I'll set up simple wind barriers with natural material (branches, etc.) If I can locate it in and amongst trees, it provides an additional layer from rain and snow, providing trees overhead are safe. For myself, ultimately, I must assess the transportation of the tent. Being a solo adventure rider, less is more as I have always found ways to improve my camps using natural materials of the environment. If I consider this shelter a backup scenario for survival, I'm most likely selecting the teepee based on weight, ease of making new poles and ground stakes. For the glamping factor, I'd be all over the dome. After years of camping, I never wanted to walk inside my tent. Standing is a plus, but so long as I can sit up, that was key. For an extended period, the teepee provides a seating area along with a sleeping room; as for walking and standing, I'm confident that bushcraft exercises like building a more permanent structure would keep me busy because something terrible prevents me and my family from returning home. 😂

Happy New Year

Thank you for all your informations. Love wathing your videos. But I would like to add some information to this video. A teepee with only one pole is not very wind resistant, but the teepees with several poles along the walls are very wind resistant. I would rather go for a dome than a onepole teepee. But a teepee with many poles is my favorite 😀

Keep up the good work 👍🏼

Thanks for the info hope not to ever need it. Hope you and yours has a happy new year. The Russian hot tent Survival Lilly demonstrated seemed to be heavier quality material and was camouflage as well. I think she said they cost 1200 dollars. Then you still need the stove for another 600 or so. I am thinking a shed converted to a tiny house might be a better option if it isn't a rush bug out deal.

Really need that Dome Tent in my life

Look at Seek Outside tents for great backcountry teepee tents w/ stoves.

Thanks for posting the video. I have one difference of opinion regarding which is easier when there is little snow. At least when camping in the Sierra, even places that look like soft soil usually have some mix of rocks just below the surface. This renders stakes to be only marginally useful. I then have to scrounge for logs or rocks. If it's windy, they have to be large and heavy. This is less of an issue with the dome tent. With a teepee tent, the center pole becomes a pivot point for lifting the windward side of the tent. No such fulcrum exists with the dome tent. So, for windy conditions, with little snow to pack around the perimeter, and soil that limits the use of stakes, the dome tent seems the better choice

I love the dome better, though. But both are really nice. I bought a tent online almost a year ago but haven't used it yet. Maybe soon, with all what's happening lol

Excellent
