Great video. Such a peaceful place. Anyone else think this guy is a kind soul?

I too am addicted these camping videos, I watch in bed before dozing feeling very warm, cosy and content with the world.

Great video mate , what a lovely pooch, sorry she is no longer with us .

1.5 million views!! (at the time of my writing this). I wonder how many folks have watched this several times over as I have. Simon's videos are so serene-many thanks for your time, effort, and devotion to making these for us.

”I thought I might just continue eating my way through this ration pack” 👌🏽

This should have been titled "Watch Simon eat a 24 hour ration pack in 12 minutes!"

A man. His dog. A tent. And a 24 hour ration pack. Good times. Thanks for the video.

Aww poor Maggie. Although she looked at you with pure devotion and I can tell that you gave her a good life. I am slowly digging backwards you see. When you bond with an animal, you learn ways of communicating that isn't easy but, you create a special bond. that is all we can do for our animals. miss her as I am sure you do. she was a character in the videos.

Love your videos Simon. You and Andy are my favorite. Don't ever stop!!

A snoring dog is a truly comfortable doggo.

Just a suggestion for your next winter camping, if possible it some pine or fir branches underneath for insulation, works great!

The sound of the stove opening and trembling in the heat is magical...

Dogs are just the most amazing critters "Oh hey dad, we're in a tent in the snow, not doin' nuffin'. That's great. I love being with you. I'll just sleep till you need me, kay?"

I don’t understand this obsession I have watching people camping out overnight in bad weather conditions but dammit, keep them coming! Also get yourself a carbon monoxide alarm for when using that stove my man.

Just going back through all your old videos and this one had me laughing. Maggie bouncing around was really lovely to watch, but her snoring!!!

Couldn't sleep at 4am so rewatching some of your Vids Simon... I realised how much of my life I watch you eating 😂🙏... Brilliant

30:20 He asks the dog “you’re alright?” and the dog answers 😂😂😂😂

14:53- absolutely beautiful the way the clouds came in and covered out the sunlight.

an old ammo canister as a wood stove, brilliant 👍

Absolutely love what you do. Especially the collaboration with Andy (Kent Survival) great stuff.

After watching this .I want to put a basha up in the garden and get the hex I stove going .Love it .Cheers Simon .

That MRE kit is awesome! This whole set up is pretty awesome actually. I've always wanted to camp in the snow with a hot tent. It looks really fun. I love camping and warm fire on a cold night.

Such a cool set up! That bow saw is terrific! I cracked up when the eating started and kept going! 😂🤣😂 Great appetite you!

Cool video man. Thanks for taking us along with the winter camping trip. I enjoyed it.

you looked like you really enjoyed that. so did we thanks good skills by the way 😃

As ever, great stuff, Simon! Thanks so much for bringing us all along.

Thank you so much Simon for showing the inside of your tent with your sleep system plus your gear. It 'truly' helps us determine whether there will be enough room for our uses should we decide to buy this tent or one very similar.

Hot camping and beating winter at her own game. Priceless. Cheer Simon! Skillet

Belissimo video very Limpo,organizado,inteligente 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😄🏕🇧🇷👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👋🏿

Thank you so much for a great vid. No useless talking to pad it out.Loved it, I will be on the lookout for more. Thanks again. Rod

I thoroughly enjoy your adventures....I am a 73 year old antique little girl..;;;I have had health issues that limit my abilities......therefore I get to enjoy your outdoor adventures with Maggie....I think I will try some of your suggestions with my little Sweet Pea.....life can se fun...even at 73

I found your channel due to seeing you on Andy's channel. I've watched a ton of your videos. Good stuff. I love the banker's tent you made, especially because you made it instead of buying it.

When a 24hr ration pack becomes a 4hr ration pack 😂 Great video. Looked so relaxing and cosy in that tent. Just bought a hot tent myself 👍

Awesome video! When I was younger my brother and I did a lot of winter backpacking in snow. We really enjoyed it because we usually had the parks to ourselves. Love these videos, please keep them coming.

You take care too Simon, and stay safe.

Always looking for ideas to stay warm and be outside. But hey I am from the state of Minnesota, United States. The states of Minnesota and North Dakota get so exceptionally cold in winter, that they place just behind Alaska. Like the tent and stove! I spend two weeks outside in winter every year but it can be expensive the way I do it. I appreciate the budget camping!!

I Googled the tent to see where I might get one..!!! That's a great piece of handiwork...the stove is also a fine piece of craftsmanship. Great stuff..

The Polish Army gets nice tents. I wonder what other nice stuff they get. My dad was in the British Army. Our stuff seemed quite rubbish compared to USA, Germany et al. Laughed out loud at your reactions. Well it is late, past midnight. You just seem naturally funny 😄 Thanks for letting me live vicariously in a tent in the middle of winter whilst I’m as snug as a bug in a rug in my bed.

Thanks Simon, I thoroughly enjoyed that!

I think that was fantastic. You looked do cozy in the tent and the wood stove must have been great. Your beautiful dog for company. Magic!

In our old C-rations we used to get big packets of cocoa. I have never found civilian equivalents. Mixed it with coffee sometimes, mostly not. Good stuff!

Glad to see you didn't give any of the rat-pack contents to Maggie, that might have been considered cruelty to animals!! :)

Enjoyed every minute of That and it's 3am. The coffee reaction was brilliant.

I really ENJOYED watching your vlog so interesting

Ah, A Awesome Video again, Simon. I really enjoyed it and see'n Maggie🐶out & About with you too. Thanks for your video's🎥so much.

Great vid Matey. I though of pitching Friday evening in the Lavvu and cried off !!! Good thing as we woke up on Sat morning to 7 foot snow drifts. The Beast from the East hit us hard. Local farmer came to dig us out on Sunday !! Take care Bud.

Excellent vid,spent a few years in the uk military and went through many a ration pack but the Canadian one’s when I was out there training in deep snow tasted so good!

I love, love, love, the ammo can stove of yours Simon! Brilliant!

Great video mate! Love Maggie, she's beautiful! The beast from the east.. The media.. Lol.. Australia saw the "Arctic Blast" back in July 2015.. The most snow in 30 to 50 years for allot of places though Australia. Including Stanthorpe, I was 100km from there at the time.. It was the talk of the region! There was a rush on warm clothes and blankets, heaters.. All sorts. It's keeping warm while camping through winter, is one the greatest challenges faced. Australia's no exception. An edit:- a year later, the "Antarctic Blast".. Lol

great video.... i really enjoyed every minute! greetings from cologne, germany arthur

Love to try this camping in the snow overnight thing, keep it safe Simon, blessings from usa

I have found them very comfortable. Its great to be able to rotate the cover to control drafts & smoke from the fire & to peel the top cover back & let the sun in too. The floor is very comfortable once covered with rushes & sheepskins.

Maggie snoring.....perfect shot for what I assume was a warm, soul-soothing and peaceful evening.

Just rewatched, love this one pal, say hi to the pooch for me.

That’s a good dog you have there!!! Great to see she was on the team

Enjoyed the vid, it was very practical and educational. I almost felt as if i was also present. Considering im in the east and its Winter temp is negative 27 F but feels like 23 F degrees. Thank you for sharing.

Outstanding camp and set up! Looked like a great time.

I like the vertical saw action (thinking outside the box)

Thoroughly enjoyable! I miss tent camping.

Fixing to winter the hole Mississippi winter in a tent. So really enjoyed your video. Gave me a few ideas. I spent 14 yrs in Alaska so wintering here should not be undoable. 😊 Thanks again for your video. Nice job friend. 😊😊😊😉🙂☺️

Hello Simon, love to see new inputs... the handling with the saw for tiny diameter branches, a lavu with sown-in flloor sheat, rhe stove with enough capacity to make a meal & last but not least: down to earth fact finding comments without personal 'whining' . Thos last mentioned is too often in US / Canadian vids. Stay healthy and thanks plus greetings from Holland.

Very nice camping in snow .it looks so cozy and beautiful.

Thankyou Simon and Maggie - most enjoyable

Maggie is very nervous. Please comfort her. Hugs . Thanks for this video. Very nice.

Hopefully more hot tenting this year. Love the tent mods! Best on YT!

Simon, enjoyed your video. Just a thought for you. I was sationed in Germany with the U.S. Army when we changed from "C" rations to MREs. We would heat water like you did and heat the pouches in that water. Then use the hot water for coffee, we Yanks don't drink much tea, and it was a way to conserve water. We did this for quite a while before the Army informed us that wasn't a good idea. Seems the boiling water leached some rather harmful chemicals out of the plastic pouches. Didn't kill me but I thought you should know. I think the plastic used for the pouches has been changed since, I certainly hope so. You might want to check on your rations. It was during that time in my Army career that I also perfected the one canteen cup shave, shower, and shampoo. Order is important here. Be well.

Great video. Love the 50. cal ammo can wood stove. I need to make myself one

I watch em over and ever wishing I could be there peace and quiet and a laugh and joke in between ……. Great

Looked like a great time Simon. ATB

thanks man i enjoyed alot! so fun to watch 'n listen to wat u sayin! ive got polish poncho tent too so i'll try somthn similar as u. but i cant stitches soz start from gettin ground sheat or so aye!

Enjoyable as ever....am a lavvu user (with A frame outside, as I'm a big bugger!) and the 24 hr ration boxes!!

Thank you for sharing of yourself. Very cool my bloke.

I've had my curry...I've had my...Maple bun, I've had my oat bar with Nutella now let me just eat this dog right quick

Simon awesome video and outing, loads of room in that tent. I am hoping to get an Arctic 5 Man Bell tent as my prospector Tent is large for one or two guys and does eat wood in our winter conditions. The setup of yours is awesome. I leave a small sleigh at the tent now for hauling wood around during the day, makes it so much easier. Maggie looks like she enjoyed herself. I bought an ammo can and was going to make a stove with it but realized for our winters it would be fruitless in all reality. I have a new Kni-co that I need to burn in and use yet but waiting for the tent. I may build a small collapsible stove yet this summer. Awesome video once again. Cheers Fred

I know me and my hiking mates would eat our way through that ration pack gleefully...very impressed. I have an Inuit dog and dogs are like chocolate...I can never have just one. Love Newfies. So many dogs..so little time *sigh*

That stove is great. I’m going to try and build one this weekend from your design. Thanks for the inspiration. Now I just need to get a nice tipi

Love the technique of moving the wood on the saw. Crowe

brilliant, a fellow lavvu lover - subscribed.

That is so beautiful, it looks like everything is covered in icing sugar! 😍😍😍 Also, it looks like the British army is ridiculously well-fed. I may have made high-pitched noises of delight when I saw that teeny-tiny Tabasco bottle.

Keeping active, hydrated and with plentiful hot food is a big part of maintaining as much comfort in body and mind as possible when camping outdoors in inclement weather. Impressed that such a small stove produced so much heat, albeit with a large stockpile of prepared wood. Well done.

Much love! from USA

Nice video. excellent editing. Often wondered about those lavvu's, your one look exceptionally well made. ATB, Steve

I have never seen such a fantastic journey with the little dog you guys are doing great job literally i like snow very much i hope to watch your every video in snow like this It seems good it feels like in actual with me...

Clearly Maggie is thrilled with the snow.

Made out of an ammo can. Brilliant.

my friend that is good ! Please never stop making this kind of videos Keep up the great work 👌🏻

Love to watch the fire. It feels warm and calm in winter or night

I want to camp on a snowy woods before I die

Great video Simon, loved it and good to see the lavvu out :) plus an added ration review ;) ATB - Andy

Hey Simon I enjoyed that, next time if your in that situation put a few of those logs on top of that stove to dry out when waiting for your water to boil

Wonderful memorial to a very beautiful lady.

I was totally ignorant about theses tents, i appreciated your video, thanks !

Maggie is so cute!

I like the way you camp brother. greetings from faraway.. the enchanting land of the mystic.....INDIAna

Both my parents were in the Canadian army and there was on ration that had gold foil and it was like you had won the lottery. It was a salmon, wild rice and potatos.

Right good video. I’m extremely impressed with your tent! I’ll be looking for one soon...thank you for reviewing it. I’d say the survival meal is a great bit of kit!

That polish lavvu modified is super !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simon - I really enjoyed your video. Good job mate.

Wow I think I saw you process wood before. You make it look so easy when I know it's hard work. I know I am learning a lot. Thank you

Ha, a defender! I will subscribe just because of that! I have a Series 3 and spending many nights in the woodland. I don't have such a lovely oven, but I do have a warm dog as a blanket, he, he...
