As someone who has been a subscriber from the early beginning, I can agree the wall tent videos are the core of your channel. This channel has that "je ne sais quoi" surrounding it. The extreme temperatures, the snow, the woodstoves for heat, the fresh cooked meals. The all around survival. It's amazing to see how far you've grown. Not only as a channel, but in experience and expertise in these environments. As the channel matured, the addition of the RBM tents and the cabin have a been a welcome sight, as it allows us to see more of what made this channel what it is today. Even your spring and summer travels to the wall tent are fantastic. Keep on doing what you're doing Jay. I think I speak for most of the fans and subscribers that we'll continue to watch and look forward to new videos.

Just a small suggestion. When frying potatoes, the stove doesn’t get the grease hot enough and the potatoes really soak it up. I recommend a portable propane camp stove. It heats the oil faster and more evenly so the potatoes are crisp and not overly greasy. Unless, of course, you prefer them over the stove.

Jay, totally up for anyplace you want to stay and show us. Tent shack, bear tent, doesn’t matter. We come back for you!

HI Jay, enjoyed how you survive in the really cold. I have a off grid cabin north of Williams, AZ, 45 miles south of the Grand Canyon. It gets to single digits,F°& 60 mph+ winds at times. So what your sharing, I've been there also, just not as cold weather that you have . Be safe & warm.🤠

I really like what you do and I like the cabin it will be a very beautiful place to live I'm speaking of the cabin the country is gorgeous

Aah … Jay, you brought the music back. I love that song and it’s so fitting for your outdoor adventures. I will never get tired of hearing it in the beginning and end of your videos. I Love watching every one of your videos, especially the ones of your tent cabin. Thanks for sharing all aspects of your outings with us.

Jay this is my third winter with you and your videos. Being a woman I would love to see the cabin become more homey and finished. I think watching the process would be fun. Yes, I love the walled tent but the cabin is fun to watch as well.

I LOVE the videos in the new cabin and I can’t wait until you completely make it your own and it’s a comfortable, cozy, warm, inviting place for you and your guests and us viewers!!

Hi Jay - my wife and I just recently discovered your channel, and we really enjoy it. We are in the early phases of planning our next adventure in life, moving toward a more self-sufficient, somewhat off-grid life. What we love about your channel is the feeling of remoteness and survival blended with coziness. We love to camp, and my wife loves to "make do" with whatever gear/food we have available at the time. That's what we enjoy about your experiences...you are too remote to just run to the store to get something, so you have to plan, bring what you need, and do with what you have. Whether that be in a tent, a cabin, or something else, doesn't matter to us...we just enjoy watching your process!

Wow. This was almost a manifestation. On your last video, I asked about your cabin and look what we have here! The time you put into editing and creating such amazing content does not go unappreciated. Stay safe and warm (ish) this winter season Jay. From Georgia

The cabin and the tent in the same video! What more could we ask for! Just awesome! And all the best of the season to you and your family 🌲

Hi Jay, can’t wait to see you start working on to reconstruct the cabin 😊

Cabin will a fun project…a nice garage for your snow mobile and stuff when you start the remodel,a close area for all the fire wood, also an area to enter before you are in the cabin

For me, I like the tent shack. The cabin is really nice and will be even nicer as you add on. The tent shack is more rustic.

Hello Jay, I like the tent videos but I am excited to see what you do at the cabin. It has all the makings of a beautiful spot. I'm a cabin kinda gal especially in bear county! You make great interesting videos! I'm always ready for the next one!

LOVE your videos!! Regarding the generator -- motors need 3 things: fuel, air, and spark. Use only ethanol-free (ie, "rec") gas, check your air intake and filter, and change your spark plugs every year...even if you don't think you need to.

I would’ve left the shower curtains until you had something of a replacement. Those are much better than nothing to fight the cold with the upper windows

Awesome video, as usual, Jay. As a long time Honda EU2000 and EU2200 generator owner you’re in for a wild ride if you’re using ethanol fuel. The jets clog easily when using ethanol. Do your best to not use ethanol fuel. If you must use it, the only remedy is to have the tools on hand to quickly clean the carb when needed. It’s not difficult but is annoying.

At 11:25 reminds me of being a kid and watching the snowfall but feeling like you’re flying through space and the snow is like a star you’re passing. Keep up the great vids Jay! Also I always enjoy what you cook while out in the woods😂.

Hello! You should try a stove with cold air intake, now you burning the little hot air it produces. It should speed up the heating time. Love from Sweden🤗

Another enjoyable video. I sit in my warm, cozy den (in north Georgia USA) and still shiver when your thermometer reads -5˚F. Your meals are always simple, yet tasty. Making homemade bread in the wood stove worked better than I could imagine. Hopefully, you can get the wood stove oven to fit. Good luck with all the renovations you have planned. It's a work in progress that will be fun to follow. Safe travels on the snow and ice.

The tent shack is where it all started and that is like the home of the channel in my eyes but the cabin is the beginning of a new chapter and definitely can't wait to see what you do with the place hopefully you can spend time between both locations and we will enjoy every video you put out Thank you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

always good to have some lock-deicer or methionyl handy for frozen propane stuff

Another fantastic video Jay! I thoroughly enjoy all of your content. The cabin tent will always be a favorite for most viewers because it where this channel started. But change is always nice to. As always I'm looking forward to the next video. Cheers

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU JAY AND CRYSTAL AND HAPPT NEW YEAR AND ALL THE BEST IN THIS COMING NEW YEAR Take care and be safe.I like watching your channel when you and Crystal are together at your new cabin...

Love the cabin videos. Looking forward to seeing the renovations.

Jay, you never cease to amaze me! I love your cooking skills. Another couple minutes, and that bread probably would have had a little more color too it. I’m sure it was delicious. Love the cabin. Can’t wait to see your lady friend come put her touch on the cabin. Look forward to the next video, very exciting! I’m sure that the next time you visit the cabin the stove pipe will be be ready to except the oven. That is one beautiful addition to the stove. Still trying to figure out how to contact you! When the grandkids come over Christmas, I’ll have a lesson (Ha Ha Ha)! Keep up the Great work, and be SAFE!!!😮

Just by chance found you, and subbed. AWESOME VIDEO, thanks. Looking forward to more. Be safe!

This was a great video to watch. Thanks

I love watching any type of adventure you do but, my favorite is at your new cabin and am really looking forward to your renovations, etc, etc.

My favorite thing about your channel is just watching you do you. Tent and cabin in extreme temps, or 2 weeks camping away from fires in the summer, I like it all. You try, that's what I appreciate. You're not afraid to try. Like the bread. You are a give it a go and see what happens guy. Your skill at filming and your personality are why I stay.

Thank you for the great videos.

Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time they come on Jay. May the lord bless and protect you at the cabin

Jay thank you so much for sharing your journey. I love both the wall tent and the cabin videos. I am more interested in seeing what possibilities you will create at the cabin but the wall tent delivers serenity with the beautiful views. You are a hard working man. Merry Christmas Jay!

Cabin is new place. Beautiful and interesting. Different approaches when ice road opens. Lot to do. Yeah some remodel work. make it yours. Curtains for summer light block. Tent shack is ok, only so much you can do there. Arrive get wood eat go to bed. Days are so short and you can't get out much. Some ice fishing with a insulated tent would be good. Add to it. You lakes in front yard. RB tent is good for one off weekends maybe when it's super bad out to test yourself. Always fun. Northern lights. Get an atv in there for running around this summer at house. small trailer. Stock pile some serious wood. Build a wood shed. Things you need. Take care Happy Holidays

Hi Jay good to see you again love watching you cook I have to try the one keeping warm and be safe 👍 happy holidays 🎄⛄🎄

I'd like to know how feasible it is to either replace that particle board siding with logs, or put up a log exterior affixed to the boards for structural support. That cabin just looks like a powerful winter wind would knock it right over, and not only would the log reinforcement help, it might add an extra layer of insulation against the cold.

Hi Jay, all the way from Scotland. I started following you as I love seeing the beautiful scenery and watching you get all cosy with the woodstove. Love seeing what you are gonna cook up next, makes me hungry but im normally in bed watching your videos as thats me time. I enjoy all your videos, but I am so excited to see what you do with the cabin. I think some nice wood cladding, maybe island off the kitchen which can be used to sit at and one big window looking out from the livingroom you spoke of adding! Would look just like a big painting. All the best and look forward to seeing what you do with this amazing project. Xx

Jay you are one of the most down to earth people I have watched on u tube. I have been here long time watching you and you truly do have a passion for doing the hard times in the cold and being positive while you do it. Such a pleasure to watch your videos. I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the cabin to put your mark on it and majestic it one of your places to share adventures with us.

Jay and his FAMOUS HOT CHIPS, 🍟 with bread and butter of course ☺ When you get started on your renovations inside the cabin I hope you put in timber steps to the loft that ladder sure don't look safe.. just a thought... you are now in a beautiful winter wonderland, ❄ it looks awesome ❤🕊

I glad you are using your old intro music again because it fits better with your videos better than any other music 🎶

What a great way to make toast! I haven't seen that before. Thanks Jay!!

Like the cabin I would move the tent closer to the cabin so that you have a extra room next to it.... I like this cabin camping maybe the hunting, fishing and more.😊

I like seeing, about the cabin

I’m a new follower so each part of the channel I ❤. You appear to enjoy each part… the tents the shack and the cabin. Great videos and information.

Jay, thanks for another great video. Nice work on the bread. I still feel like the tent is “home” for the channel. The cabin is a nice new step brother to the tent that could one day become a trusted brother. It’s definitely not a Jay product, but with a little patience and a lot of hard work you can make something out of it. You always persevere in the woods. Thanks again for the peace, knowledge and entertainment.

Jay, thanks for yet another amazing video and sharing your journey. We have much in common including having built a similar trapping cabin with a friend and many a great times there. Be it your tent camp, this cabin, the delicious meals, the northern lights or that sweet new Expedition you’re running, keep it up! I’m sure you’ll have that place transformed to your liking more every trip. Solar panel, trickle charger and a battery bank is likely in the plans for ease of use and readiness upon arrival. Merry Christmas and cheers!

I always enjoy going along with you. It breaks up the day for me. I’m 76 and I love living through all the channels I watch. I’ve saw and learned so much. So thank you Jay, it’s been fun….🙋🏻‍♀️🩵🙏

Hi Jay, as i get older comfort drives me more then anything. The wall tent is the corner stone of your videos but i have to say seeing you progress into the cabin and what it will become is interesting also. Thanks as always for the great content!

Love your videos Jay and I especially love your new cabin. Keep up the good work! Always look forward to your videos.

I’m really enjoying the cabin videos. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

I like them all you look like you enjoy them have fun 👍👍👍👍

Canvas painters dropcloths would be a great window curtain idea. There is a lot of fabric in the big ones and they are relatively cheap yard for yard. They would also offer some insulation property too.

A Christmas present from Jay... my husband just poked his head around the door and asked "are you off in Canada again??" He recognises the intro music... 😂. All this from my patio in summertime Tasmania. Best of both worlds. Merry Christmas Jay and to all my fellow armchair travellers.

Merry Christmas Jim and thank you very much for your vidéos!

Love the variety of different videos. Not the same stuff every time. As for the hobo cabin I would go with shiplap walls to make it look and feel more homier. I would definitely build a garage or canopy for storage and a place to park the snowmobile to keep the snow off it.

Hello from Montana, I say the same thing about where you are. Hope to some day visit it.

Suggestion. When you bring the gas line in through the window try putting a cut to length pool noodle on the edge of the window(s) to keep the cold air from coming inside. Also, the space between the outside window and the inside window can make a reasonably good refrigerator to keep food cold without electricity. We used to do that in the dorms at college during the winter. Great way to always have ice cold beer ready for consumption without it taking up a lot of room in the fridge.

I like all your videos the variety keeps it interesting.

The snow is so so beautiful, like your video 🌨️🌨️🎄🤩

Thanks for the video Jay. From Toronto, Canada.

I like th tent and the cabin the best.

Seeing the grey plywood floor reminds me of our camp. I haven't seen -23 in quite a while now. I am almost 63 and the cold is harder to deal with. I used to do what you do all the time. I spent many trips at our camp in the winter. About your different choice of tent...camp...etc....it's all good to watch. The next time your propane bottle is iced up, pour hot water on the valve. Hot water can work miracles. Many years ago my dad and I got nearly stranded at our camp in late November. It went down to -20. I had to put my 6.5 hp outboard next to the sauna wood stove to defrost it. The ice was 10cm thick by morning. It was a crazy boat ride across the lake busting ice.

Great video Jay. I enjoy the cabin and the tent!! Keep them going!

Merry Christmas! I am so enjoying your snow and looking forward to seeing the renovations to the cabin. Love all the videos.

I really like the tent ❤but I’m really looking forward to see how the cabin is going to look after you start fixing it up.

Hi Jay here’s a name for your cabin Canada at it finest wonderful 😊

Merry Christmas to you. Thank you for sharing your camping adventures with us. 🎄💖🤗❄️🏕️

Greeting Jay! I love your cooking skills and your willingness to try new tools and building techniques. You have such a healthy attitude! Here is my go-to list.....for you, the puppy and anyone who should stay with you: SMOKE detectors and carbon monoxide detectors!!! And Maybe a few extra fire extinguishers. And an escape window and chain type ladder in the loft. The cabin is a long way from help! Yea, I sound like a worry-wort but I have been through a few of these events and lived to advise others on being prepared! Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures! KLR in Colorado. Take care of yourself and those you love.......

Jay, I too am one of the very early subs. It's been great enjoyment watching the progression of your skills!! I think we as early subs will always have a fondness for the tent, however, as one who has built, remodeled, renovated 10 houses (with my wife of 29 years) and we are just now finishing our 11th - an old pole barn with a lean to and made it a house - i am looking forward to watching how the renovation of your cabin unfolds. Yes, of course, I still look forward to the tents but I am excited for you and your girlfriend and how this cabin project will develop. As always I so enjoyed this video!! Bridge

I like both your tent shack and your new cabin. The view at the cabin is beautiful. I think once you remove alot of the unwanted items it might easier to work on the cabin. Looking forward to your next video.

Congratulations …. You bought the land and house. Cool

Very nice video. Love your cabin.

Hi Jay! I love tent as it's where this channel and whole history started long time ago, but cabin is something fresh and new. I hope it will help you grow. Looking forward for rebuild and renovation vids. Merry Christmass and New Year!!

I love the beautiful scenery around the cabin. I’m excited to see what amazing ideas you have for the cabin, love your videos ❤

I like the cabin because it's new

What a lovely video!! I think the fact that every video is in a new environment keeps your channel very interesting. I personally love the camp activities, the work needed to enjoy this way of life and for sure the drone shots, so it doesn’t really matter where you’re staying! I can’t wait to see how you transform the cabin! 👍

I’m freezing just watching Jay. Wow the snow is deep. Takes longer to warm the cabin than the tents that’s for sure. Well here we are off on an adventure with Jay in the frozen north. All warm and cozy while you’re freezing yer arse off. I like the warm weather videos but these are my favorites. I knew you weren’t to far from the wall tent. Until the summer you could get a set of sheets to use for curtains, of a dark color. I love all of your videos Jay.

Apologies for not subbing earlier. I'm out of The Peg, travelling east, but missing winter. Thanks for sharing your Dash!!! - Davy.

Great stuff jay!! Thanks

oh the northern lights when they dance across the sky it must be awesome to be there thank you Jay

Nice man cave. Definitely great for hunting or fishing, depending on how far away you are from the water.

I’m looking forward to more videos from the cabin and it’s progress

This is my 2nd time. Good stuff. I’m thinking you also like cooking.

That breakfast was right for the cold weather 💪🏼

all of it! love the videos!

Merry Christmas from Norway. 🎄🎄🌹✨️👍

Lucky lucky lucky....I'm too old to be out that remote but nice watching it done!

In my head I was thinking "that bread is gonna burn" and then Jay pulls out a really good looking loaf. I really like seeing you experiment out there with camp cooking. For a first time loaf cooked in a wood stove, it looked perfect. I can't wait to see if you catch and cook anything through the ice.

Congrats Jay! I watch your videos over and over again! Please dont you ever stop! Greetings from Romania!

I love you little house in the woods ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Your tent shack videos are the best.

I like it all. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

the drone footage at the end, god damn! love the cabin, dream of mine... i would pimp the hell out of the place and make it the perfect place to share memories. Well done!

Been watching for along time. I am 79 and really enjoy your videos. I am finally learning how to use this phone. I think the cabin is going to be the way to go. Good project. Love your stuff.

Jay I'm good with were ever you are like you said you have a life outside KZfaq. That's why I love Iike your video's you bring me along for what's going on in your life. You do you and I'll keep watching your video's. I even think it's great that the kids can come out with you as well as your gf. Merry Christmas cheers

First time watching so glad you get the opportunity to get away from it all to spend weekend at the cottage nothing like it to energise you.

Amazing video Jay. Your channel is one of my favorites. Watching from Halifax, NS

Hi Jay, I would like to comment you on your video's because for a long time I watch them all. I want you to know that you bring joy to my life with every video you post. Not to long ago I found out that I am quit ill and probably will not recover from that. It won't take my life but will leed me to a wheel chair. I was always a tough guy like you. Thinking in the snow in the Austrian Mountains.....ice fishing all the nice stuff. And now it's not possible for me anymore. A few surgeries are coming in the new year. and I hope they bring me something. But every time I look to your video's it brings me joy and pleasure because I am in that moment with you on the snowmobile. Every time you take me with on an adventure. And that I am very thankful of my friend. So keep them coming and I'll be with you every time. Happy Holidays and warm season Greetings from Holland Johnxxx
