Great tips on winter driving. These are some of the first things we are shown in the 'self-rescue' section of our off road course for the Fire Service.
We are still waiting for some decent snow to hit the UK. I can't wait to get out in the Land-Rover Defender. Our winch is broken at the moment though :(
Amazing what a tarp will do for you even in a winter storm. Great vid, thanks for all the tips. Good chuckle on the matches but they seem to do the job, one match one fire, not bad for common matches in a storm.
Really enjoyed the opening discussion. I did get stuck in the snow one year out doing the same thing (weather was better though). Had to hike out and all the way down the canyon to get to a pay phone (before cell phones were the norm). Learned a lot from that. What a great vid Beast. It sounded like you were just having the time of your life out there. I've put my tarp that close to the fire and have not had holes burned in. Did yours do all right? I'm toying with getting a nicer tarp.
Looked like a blast! Lots of great information, as always. Had to LOL! Your vast array of fine fire starters and for your winter storm you use a book of matches - good one, it did the job. Very enjoyable this one. Good to see someone in the PNW got out in this stuff.
My little girls and I like your vids. We have the same whistle in our kits. Being 4 and 2, they thought it was really cool to see. keep up the vids they rock.
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this vid! It is one of my fantasies come to life. Only thing I would like to have seen is a shot of your shelter from outside. Thanks, man!
Good stuff. I also prefer camping in the worst of winter. A lot less people around me, and the occasional fellow camper I do meet are usually there to enjoy it, and not carry on like its spring break. Downside is we can't carry in new jersey, so you are taking a chance here.
@bizzarrogeorge The supreme court just ruled you can carry, and the right to bear arms is a fundimental right of the individual (meaning the 2nd amendment isn't referring to the militia only when bearing arms).
Very fun video! I love going on these adventures with you. I really liked your beer cup! That would be fun to bring to a Deschutes Brewery. BTW, The Abyss is a fantastic stout. I bet that hit the spot!
Thanks for the overnight adventure, just one comment, when you use your GoPro, can you move your head a little slower when you pan? got a little dizzy there. thanks for sharing!
Cool vid and good vids in general. Would have liked to see more from the forest. Nice basic truck Btw. I like the flat wind screen. Reminds me of the old Land Rovers. Is it a International? Looks early seventies.
Great video, I thought it was great that you started your fire with a match, don't see matches used very much. You never know but you might have stumpled upon someones little lab with the wheelbarrow, bottle of water and the piece of siding you found.
When you lifted the board, I thought it was a secret bugout stash! Unhooking battery in truck is a good idea. your truck is okay, but newer ones have a constant draw.
Wish I had the land around me to do this stuff. Sadly its registered camping only and day trails with no camping allowed. Great adventure. Do you ever get worried going solo?
nice tip (windshield flip), I wish I would always remember that! Very good job hitting the basic safety rules that would save peoples lives, if they would simply follow them. I too love the snow and feel energized when it comes to town. watching vids like this make me want to drop everything I'm doing and hit the mountains. Thanks for filming your outing! Good job!
Great video brother beast! When I saw the wheel barrel (heat deflector) & plywood (wind break) I thought heck re salvage those items & make camp there. The camping spot that you went with was much better.
Besides the space blanket did you have a pad to insulate you from the ground? Too bad you didn't get more snow, but still it looked like a glorious overnighter : )
good times!did I miss some paint on the scout, or is it just cleaner than usual. crazy stuff you found, ya there was wood everywhere:) , thanks for taking us along.
Fantastic choice of beer! Wish Deschutes was available here in the Great Lakes area. Great vid and glad to see a fellow bushcrafter enjoying actual good beer!
p.s. you need to try Founders Canadian Breakfast Imperial Stout
Excellent vid! Im jealous. What do you usually use to hold water in once in camp? I have seen some of the spendy bladders and bottles, But I recently found some really cool and inexpensive reuseable water/fuel bladders and will have those up on my site soon. They seem to be great for keeping a couple gallons around camp.
Hi Beast how cool was that 45* rite HaHa!! lol nice trip man wish I was there I think im of on a canoe type trip for my next film just like yourself I love the winter thanks for sharing. Roach
What brand is your casualty blanket? Can you do a full video review of the blanket? I am really trying to lighten my winter pack. Right now I am using a Ridge Rest foam style.Its is still too heavy and takes up way, way too much space.
good times.
