Camping on snow may sound like a terrible idea, but it can be a magical experience if you have the right set up and can even be pretty comfortable, it gives you a proximity to the mountains that opens a whole new perspective in regards to finding new lines a bit further away.
After numerous camping expeditions to Arctic regions I have found a way to make my tent a happy home.
In this episode I show you a few tricks for first setting up your tent and then keeping yourself nice and toasty inside.
So get planning a little camping expedition for this winter because it is magic and you will not regret it!

You can use some plastic bags that have a wide base and a seal to pee in . Take less room than a bottle .

Instead of wool socks wear 3 mm neoprene divers socks over thin poly sock liners. The divers socks serve as VBLs (Vapor Barrier Liners) and they keep your boot liners DRY and WARM all day. Take a pair of poly liners for each day you will be out.

Nice. My tips: leave beer at home, it is too heavy and you can survive without it...if you take some strong alcohol with you (eg cognac, whisky, brandy...you know what I mean) - it is much lighter and the effect is the same, just be careful not to drink too much. Do not melt any cheese, no one will want to wash the dishes. Use jetboil or similar system, otherwise melting of snow will take ages and is inefficient (ie you need to carry more gas). Dirty hands can be easily and very effectively cleaned with the snow. BUT, this does not apply to your bottom parts (too delicate). Think about the nature when using paper napkins (burn them). Take night thick wool socks for sleeping. Always take the down jacket. Use that jetboil to make a fire if there is no birch around. Etc...

Hey Xavier, (as I said in Milan during Montagna Festival 2018) thanks for the inspiration and for this web serie. I reckon I will go snow camping this season! I would love you to share some tips about food, both before and during a backcountry exploration. It is always hard to plan your meals on the go and I'm sure you have some great advice (salame is already well known for us italians tho so you can give it for granted).

Great video! Question for you or any other viewers. With a freestanding tent like he is using, do you take down the tent body at all or just put it down and stake down the fly only?

Hello, not sure if I will ever get answer anyways :) I find riding with backpack quite difficult. When I pack everything it weights 9-9,5 kg. So when I am riding it weights bit less since I am wearing jacket, helmet a gloves. Still that 8 Kg on my back totaly wrecks my riding form :) How much your daily pack weights ? Do you change your body position while riding I mean to compensate weight on back?

Even for women there are adapters like pee funels. So they can also use a pee bottle
