Hi Brian - yup you're are right. I saw the slip in the hole and put 2+2 together and got 5. It was just ice. Normally she is fine and she will chew at the ice from time to time. I've tried all the booties including the balloon type ones but she hates them. Her legs are so short and her feet so big the booties end up like knee high on her! lol.

Watching it again! Those Alberta winds, couldn’t the wind easily pull up those wood pieces out of the snow that are holding down the sides of the tent if it were to kick up in the night? I’d be scared to not have it anchored down Realy good, especially with a fire inside. What have you experienced so far with the wind. You say it’s quite sheltered. Thank you for the nice footage. I have Realy enjoyed your adventures.

Hi mature Adventurer - those logs one frozen in will never move, they are locked in very tight. As I'm mostly in large forest areas the winds don't really hit very hard. The pines and spruce do a great job of defusing the wind through their bows. I would also face the tent into the wind - not side on, to make it cope better. 👍

Interesting - I'd like to get away from the gas models and have thought about the battery types but wasn't sure about the lower temperature performance. I could recharge it with the Argo too during driving!

good video, enjoy all of your videos. I'm curious about the boots you were wearing. I see triple stitching, look like a decent boot, but are they warm?
@TheEmporiumOutdoors5 жыл бұрын
Hi Johnny - They are LL Bean Maine Pack boots. This is an old video ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7xhl7pju8qRfpc.html ) 4 years ago now - and the boots are still like new. The liners show some wear but I can replace them next season. They are good to -50c they claim. I've had no issues with them and with the right socks they are very warm and very comfortable.

Michael, Was wondering if you still had your Honda 500? Though I might have missed the series where you traded it in on the Argo six-wheeler.
@TheEmporiumOutdoors5 жыл бұрын
Hi Fortdixie - I sold the P500 a little while after purchasing the Argo. I decided I would try and use the Argo for all 4 seasons. However, my friend bought a new 2018 P500 the same time I got the Argo so will still be including P500 content in future videos. The P500 was a great machine and served me very well for 3 years!

Looks like a Melitta coffee filter holder, that would take a number 4 Melitta coffee filter. I have a bigger version for a number six Melitta filter, and it makes great coffee. It's better if you use a genuine Melitta filter, however.

Michael I am wondering you you always seem to have a tent with no ground cover ie always open to to snow on the ground cna you Le me know what tents have ground cover as I am in a Australia and we need ground cover to tents to keep out the ants an ground bugs Alan

Hi Alan - It warmer conditions I use a sealed tent for the same reasons as you - critters! But during the winter a ground sheet is not really helpful. The heat of the hot tent just melts the groundsheet to the frozen earth and its not really needed. 👍

Why didn't you process your tinder from the tree that you cut down? I've started many a fire that way and it would have been easier and quicker.

Hi Torrey - I try and collect spruce twigs with old man beard as this is a good natural tinder but It was a little scarce in this area. I did end up making feather sticks with the tree in the end so you are quiet right!

Good stuff there Michael. So? How did the Teton Zipper failure get resolved? You repair it, or, did they repair/replace it? How do you get them to respond to correspondence? LOL Nice filmography work with the drone on this one too. And, we need an Esme SITREP on her leg. Hope it's nothing of concern.

Hi RatdogDRB - Hmmm I think the TETON update got left on the cutting room floor to reduce the video time :/ They wanted $80CAD to send it back for repair. The bag was only $110CAD new - so I told them errrr no. I ended up doing an amazon return and they sent a new one out the same day. I think it must have been a faulty zip as the new one has worked with no issue. Esme is all good - I think it was just an ice build up on her foot. Watching the footage back I could see she was walking fine after the little hole incident. The next day she was running and walking fine :)
