Thanks a bunch!

easily killing them from the comfort of the bed

You mention your friend who is disabled. I grew up in the Rocky mountains hiking, fishing, camping, skiing and generally enjoying the great outdoors. But, due to a spinal cord injury I now use a wheelchair. I have made a few videos of some equipment I use that lets me still get out into nature (not quite Helsinkipop level though) so if your friend is in a wheelchair, he might find them interesting.

Thanks a bunch and oh, yes, that'll be helpful. The trouble is I'm 190 cm tall. Nothing will fit at the bottom of the sleeping bag :-) A good tip for any "vertically challenged" guy!

@@Helsinkipop I am tall (5'10) as well so do understand what you mean! I usually get the extra long everything if it comes in longer for us tall people. Another suggestion would be to put them in the bag and place a disposable hand warmer in the toe of each boot before bed, stuff a glove in each ankle part then close the bag tightly, that should do the trick!

just needs to dip the finger in "medicinal" Vodka !!

Stephen Mortimer - Stephen! Good to hear from you again. Happy Easter to you!

Bah ...humbug !!

let's advise him to try a couple of "spuds" in his pocket for the campfire coals? (that should test his english)

Stephen Mortimer - 😀

Thank you very much

Is me who thank you, apart your videos are more logical Warm Regards wonder where got the Canadian sleeping bag

I really do believe you! Lots of claims to fame everywhere :-)

Funny. The first time I watched there were no commercials. Second time stopping by to reply there were :) I clicked your ad btw.

I appreciate it. I tried not to say anything "dangerous". Now later I discovered I said "knife" at one point :-)

To avoid demonetization, the first thing is to make a very detailed description for the video. Not for people to read, but for the google bots that are sniffing around for forbidden content. The bots don´t like knives and axes, but if you tell them that it´s for camping purposes only, they might let it go.

I'm really impressed with this Canadian bag

Thanks, man! I appreciate this.

I'm good at the moment! Thanks a bunch!

Ah, thanks a bunch!

Now that I watched the "dance" again... I can understand why everybody is lolling :-) I'm really impressed with the Canadian bag!

Vielen Danke!

I appreciate this, Nickolai!

Something you don't see too often

I admire Herzog. This comment was an honour.

Thanks a bunch! The frozen boots were unpleasant :-)

Helsinkipop always thanks for your videos. ATB

I agree very much

Thanks a bunch, Mark! The Canadian sleep system in this video is similar to Lars'

In my line of work it's pretty much business as usual. So, like you, there's not too much extra time. So far, I'm doing well. Thanks for the message!

Happy to hear you are doing ok! Comical thing happening over here, politicians with kids are working day and night to re open schools and kindergardens as they seem to have had enough of their own kids all ready hehe!

A good idea after field testing

Thanks a bunch! I used two bags and the cotton liner, the whole set, like you know. I believe I discovered this Canadian thing from your channel a year ago. Thanks for that, I'm impressed. The mess kit was the USGI dinner tray.

Helsinkipop Yep sounds like you and me both went out and bought one after seeing it on Lars' channel! Great bag(s)! I used mine on about a -25C overnighter this past winter. It kept me plenty warm once I finally got tbe bags zipped up all tbe way.

I believe they use goose down sleeping bags in those Polar expeditions.

Ah, lots of claims to fame out there!

Hohoh, probably so :-) Yes, the webbing looks very militarized. Best worn alone in the woods :-) My boots Sievi brand. Model SOFT SOLID. It's a Finnish make, easily available here.

@@Helsinkipop Thanks! :) I found the boots, they are available here too, sold as working boots, I see. You wouldn't happen to remember how much did that sleeping set on your Alice weight? I packed all my sleeping stuff into one pack yesterday, using light Czechoslovakian poncho as a bag. Tried attaching it to webbing instead of the backpack, (so far I tried East-german and Communist Poland webbing), but it was just too heavy (5kg because it was -12C outside) and kept dragging me down and choking after a while. I have to either go lighter or try a different webbing, I have a very modern one I haven't tried yet. imgur.com/a/LuNPd0m

Very good. So Sievi trades worldwide. The Canadian bag is heavy as hell. The total weight almost 6 kilos.

Canadian, hands down!

I've read about this... Thanks for reminding again!

Then they do exist...? LOL

there is a english chap zed outdoors

Great!

Unless it's snowing or raining, why not? It was all ok for me.

Thanks, Jöran!

Your welcome and you have a great channel

It's def a winter mat. Thick enough. And that's why it's a bit bulky. Not that great to carry when on foot.

@@Helsinkipop I'd strap it to the bottom of my British Army bergen and carry it that way. I've seen you use this technique many times too :) . I read this comment on another video: "I’m a heating engineer / wildcamper, and know all thermal 'Btu’s', (British thermal units) and all the science that goes with it, use silver foil insulation under the bag first, then the mat, and another cheap silver foil bubble wrap on the ground sheet..... Everest here we come 👍🏼🥳.", so he recommends using those cheap, silver foil blankets to increase the 'r' value of his sleeping system, one foil mat under his ground mat and the other foil mat positioned under his sleeping bag. I don't know if I'd want to carry all of that gear when on foot, mate, but as the old British Army saying goes, "Travel light, freeze at night.". Thanks for your reply :) .

Oh yes, me too! That's why I committed that hamburger blasphemy :-)

Yes, why not? It was an honest question, but nobody really answered or reacted, for that matter.

Thanks a bunch! I've acquired most of my stuff from Finland. So, unfortunately, the answer to your question is no.
