Winter overnight in the US army pup tent

[Revolverrodger]

We went out for two days and one night on a hike up the montain. The hike in was about 1.5 km with some deep snow. Temperatures were about -7 to -10 degrees. We set up some lean-to shelters with the US army pup tents and made a long fire between. We were super warm and had a good time. Hope you like the video

Great vid. Was very instructional. Looks like tough going in the snow, but you managed to make it pretty comfortable!

Every time I see food cooked on a campfire in conditions like that it makes me hungry.

Good stuff !

Very nice video, I have spent some time in a shelter half. IMO they are not worth the weight.

A tarp is much lighter and more veratile.

I tend to agree that they are heavy. The only benefit is that they don’t get holes from embers as easy as nylon tarps

Really liked your video. It is your basic Me and Joe going winter camping with lean to's out in the woods.

So many questions, first though, how did you film that? Did you build the snow up under your beds to get a sitting position or was that just from digging the fire pit down?. Did you guys flip to see who filmed and who did the work? And that is a wicked saw you guys have.

Yea I filmed some with my phone and my friend filmed other times with his camera.
We did not raise the beds with snow but just dug a trench.
Yup those silky saws work great

Awesome video. Seems like a nice night spent out in the woods. I always sleep best in the woods.
