I purchased my stove from Four Dog Stoves but the model has been discontinued. Here is the stove Cabela's recommends for this tent - bit.ly/2yMx5aM.
Hey Everyone! I wanted to shoot a "redo" of the video setting up my 4-season tent, the Big Horn III from Cabela's. My set up time is normally around 15-20 minutes to pitch the tent and another 30 minutes to dial in the interior. This tent is GREAT and has stood up to all sorts of adverse weather conditions. Thanks for watching!

Hey Brian, Let me just preface this by telling you that you are an absolute inspiration to me. For several years, I have dreamed about living the style of life you currently are. Watching your videos has been pushing me further out the door than ever before. I sit here taking notes, on how I can take your ideas, and practices and make them work for myself. You are the modern day Dick Proenneke. However, there has always been one necessary evil pushing me back inside the comforts of my home. Money. I'm not talking about the up front costs of setting up my truck, or coolers, or awnings, or anything like that. The recurring and unforeseen costs are what I can't seem to wrap my head around. Things like fuel, inevitable truck breakdowns, vehicle maintenance, food, HEALTH INSURANCE? I would love to hear from you about how you have conquered all of these costs, and really made it work. However, I do understand that this may be a sensitive topic, and if you would rather keep that private, I respect that. Once again, thank you so much for all of your videos, you are a true inspiration Ken.

Hi Ken, thank you for the kind words! This lifestyle is incredible and I count my blessings every day. Yes, steady income is difficult to come by while living on the road full time but it is possible if one gets creative and thinks outside the box. I am planning to do a video about my Monthly Budget today and will have that edited and posted to my channel by Friday. I'll be sure to shoot another video maybe tomorrow or Friday about the different ways I've earned income over the past two years. Stay tuned for more info!

I prefer not going the sponsor route because it comes with strings attached. Instead, I saved up and have residual income from investments. I also do side projects for Merrell, BioLite, and weBoost which consists of being their model for product shoots and making short videos for them which they can use for marketing. I don't have any interest in becoming sponsored because then I'd be tethered to a corporate structure and the demands that come with it.

It's time to start making these tents pop up tents like the ice shacks. Put a stove Jack in them and good to go. Light, easy to set up and take down. I'm looking at making one out of an insulated ice hut. Putting the chimney through a removeable window and go hunting. I've had a wall tent for years and want a simpler design.

Yeah, I agree. It would be great to have a quicker solution for a 4 season tent with a stove jack. I think the issue manufacturers run into is the frame for the tent and how to make it really durable for withstanding winter camping while making them quick to deploy. Taking into account the wind during the winter (sometimes up to 70mph in my area) and also the weight of snow, I'm not sure what materials would be best. I'd love a quicker solution to setting up my winter shelter, that's for sure!

I guess if car camping this would work out great but I wouldn't want to set this thing up in a Colorado snow storm. For its size, and therefore wind resistance, I think you will need to set this up with some sort of deadman hold in the deeper snow. Nice place to hang out in winter though. Thanks Brian.

I've not had any issues in the rain but I imagine if it were to downpour for days at a time, there may be a some condensation that could come through the cutout in the floor. However, there is a zipper to close the cutout so in the event of sustained rains I could button up the floor to alleviate any concerns.

Hey Brian, I too just came across your channel and am really enjoying it. I do have a couple questions for you: 1) After seeing your other videos on how your truck is set up; are you able to store your tent, stove, cot, etc. in the truck as well? Is there a summer and winter load-out, and if so, does that mean you have a storage locker somewhere? 2) I am new to the C-Springs area and am looking to start outfitting my truck. Your videos on the bed area, shower, awning and ARB room have given me some great ideas. Did you locally purchase your equipment or did you find online to be the best way? Thanks a lot, keep the videos coming.

deeann pookie When I’m camping, I use my cabin/instant tent for living/kitchen/bathroom, and my minivan for the bedroom. Table, chairs, and potty in tent; yoga mat, pillows, and sleeping bag beside my two dogs’ soft sided carriers/beds on the floor of my minivan; supplies and duffle bag on front seat. Very comfortable. I’m over sixty years old, not a problem. Gotta have my coffee in the morning, in the tent, and play my ukulele, then do yoga later in the tent. (Pulling and setting up a trailer seems too complicated for me. The instant Coleman cabin tent takes about two or three minutes. Yoga practice and hiking with my dogs help me keep strong.) Happy trails.

Hey Mike, sorry for the late reply. Yes, the Mt Princeton Hot Springs Pool is open and they've made lots of upgrades over the past year to the entire complex. I prefer the creekside natural pools in the winter time when the water is running at it's lowest flow in Chalk Creek. It's awesome to lay on the sand and let the hot spring water bubble up underneath you.

@OffGridBackcountryAdventures
@OffGridBackcountryAdventures 5 жыл бұрын
Yes, you can buy the materials to create a stove jack in any tent. Just make sure you have enough insulation around the stove jack opening and a heat shield for any areas of your tent which may be close to the stove or the stovepipe. I would recommend having a canvas or synthetic blend which is fire resistant as normal 3 season tent material melts easily at high temps.

I was thinking of getting one of these tents but I would like to use 3 of the Cabela's XL cots. By the look of your video it doesn't really seem possible to get 3 of those cots in there and still use the stove. What do you think?

Hey Almasi72, I would think three cots may be a little bit of a tight fight in there. I've had two full sized cots in the tent before, one on each side, and there's not much additional room for another cot. However, I do think it's possible, you'd just be sleeping very close to one another.

Your the first person I've seen with a fire extinguisher handy! Excellent! But that dry chem extinguisher is toxic! There are extinguishers that are non toxic. Coldfire extinguishers or fireice by gel tec. Another type of DIY extinguisher is a garden sprayer with water and 4 to 8 ounces of dawn dish soap to a gallon of water that adds weight to the water. Also acts as a foam. Also you can purchase arm and hammer and or generic baking soda in a box and there's your dry chem extinguisher but non toxic. Look up KZfaq videos on coldfire extinguishers and also videos fireice by geltec

Yes, I did use it during the winter. Rain, snow, cold. No issues. I run a small generator and have an electric heater in the tent. Even at 0 f , very, very, warm and comfy.

Hello D Holland, I own a trails maintenance company and we formally adopt trails from the Forest Service and raise private funding to pay for our efforts. We mainly pick up trash from irresponsible campers and do about 1 trail repair project every week or so. If you'd like to see an example of what we do, I just posted a video from our outing this past Sunday. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y710h8SZzNfelqM.html. Thanks for checking out my channel! All the best - Brian.

yeah, it's great to have a break in the winter months. I really love this schedule and will be returning to the off grid cabin next Nov to spend another winter there. I'm glad warm weather is around the corner as I literally had a bit of cabin fever this winter. I'm ready for fly fishing season!

These are much easier than a canvas wall tent and weigh half as much. The wall tents require two people to set them up and then you have to put in a platform floor which is cumbersome. Out of the 4 season tents I've been in, this one by far is the easiest to set up. You have to remember, these tents can withstand sustained winds of 90mph and can ride out temps as low as -35F with the comfort of a wood stove so it''s not your run of the mill lightweight backpacking tent.

Hi Michael, sorry for the late reply. I was just reviewing the comments for this video and noticed I hadn't yet responded to your inquiry. No, I don't run into issues since I move my tent every two weeks. I modified the ground stakes so I can still remove them if the ground is frozen. I adhere to stay limits and bounce around the valley every 2 weeks. Hope you have a great New Year!

Hi Mr C, I think you'd be pleasantly surprised at the livability of these outfitter tents. I've spent the past two winters full-time above the snowbelt at 9,400ft on Mt Antero in the Collegiate Peaks and I've not had any issues. These tents are designed to shed snow and I've not experienced any issues. The coldest night I had was -27F and my tent performed great - the stove kept the interior of the tent 60F. In addition, the tent is designed to handle winds up to 70mph but I'm not exactly itching to test that out :)
