Doors and windows open, T-shirt weather, that is. 7C right now, bright and sunny but the wind's chilly. I think I'd sooner have the snow TBH.

Great vid. Highly suggest a ground cloth of sorts, like an army poncho/tyvek/bivvy/whatever under your sleeping system. You can easily get a wet sleeping bag. Ask me how I know....

Another great video. It's rare we get those 'silver' thaws over here in the UK, with freezing rain on the trees and power lines etc so it's always interesting to hear people talk about them in north America. I've seen videos where they do some serious damage but I know that you will stay safe fella, you know what you're doing.

Thanks mate!! Yeah those silver dawns are really spectacular but very dangerous. I have another video on the channel where the ice was so thick trees were breaking in the middle of the night but the woods looked incredible

Nice set up.. love tarp camping. Awesome french press, so much better than just a pour over. Snow shoes, you are really building up your equipment. A ground tarp would be my only suggestion for this trip. Keep the content coming. I'm stuck at home from work, due to the winter storm in TN we had ice first then 4 inches of snow and now snowing again (they say another 4 - 6 inches) with single digit temps.

I agree Linda! A ground sheet would have been a great addition, it would of added a nice bit of extra warmth from the ground too. The bottom of the sleeping pad was pretty wet in the morning. That's pretty cold!! Single digits are tough

Hey Rob - How's it goin? Got to love these wintery conditions. Sure glad you had plenty of firewood. Are you in line for the next round of Polar Vortex that is going thru most of the USA? The snow shoes will definitely be a handy bit of kit to have. It was pretty bad here in Southern Arizona this morning. We woke up to nearly 3 feet of Sunshine. It has been rough , but we will get thru it. Stay Safe - Stay Warm. Regards, Randy in Arizona

Hey Randy!! I for sure hope not lol! We've been dealing with single digit temps for the last couple of weeks and it looks like it's about to break next week which would be nice! I mean it will still be in the 20's haha but that's better than 4° lol
