$1000 for a tarp I can damn near see through? Thatβs your winter camping gear advice? ππ
I really do love your channel and learn a lot from you but that is wild π
Why are you peeing in a bottle? π€
Justin you’re the best!!!!
How did you get the pump to stay on the pad? I have tiny pumps and a thermrest pad
Hi, thanks for another great video. I’m just curious how you find places to camp in the winter. Are the Rockies a free for all? I live in Manitoba and all the parks are pretty much closed down by late fall. There are places to go, but I’ve been there π Can you just head into a park and camp wherever, so long as you leave no trace?
Hey Justin, what do you do for water treatment? Most water filters are susceptible to freezing and I’m struggling to find a solution.
Any reason you switched from the inreach mini 2 to the messenger?
I hope gear companies value your videos as much as they should. For some reason I think you’re the YouTuber that has had most influence on gear purchases I make. Right of the top of my head I know I’ve purchased the Vargo DigDig trowel, the Tortoise Gear Fire Rods for my Victorinox knife, and the Hoka Speedgoats off of your recommendations (and other research I did, of course). Super happy with all those items out on trail, thank you!
Hey Justin, currently planning a backcountry trip to Banff/Jasper/Yoho/Assiniboine for August ’23, and hoping to stock up my gear with the deals this Black Friday. I’m very accustomed to UL backpacking down in the States with minimum temps ~5-10C in the mountains. How cold should I expect in the Canadian Rockies? And which clothing might you recommend beyond a base layer, fleece, frog togg jacket, and beanie? Much thanks, and love the vids!
never heard of toothepaste tabs wth
I love your videos!!! Great list π
Hi, thanks so much for your video. It helps me a lot to understand what is necessary to bring to your winter trips. Still I got a question: Im planning a long 1 month winter trip through the alps next year (from southern Germany to Slovenia). Do you think this gear and especially the tent will be enough to keep you dry and safe throughout so many days? thanks for a short response :))
You didnβt link the first aid kit video
You look pretty today
Where did you get the poop bag that’s hilarious
Actually I’m curious. Does your pee freeze?
Justin I must know, where did you get your iconic purple/red pants? Not in this video but every other haha
Great video Justin. Some sweet gear!
Loving the videos, Justin! Was curious if that 3" thick version of the Xtherm is out yet. Seems like all of the vendors are still advertising the old one. Do you know when it will be available or if it already is?

We have this tent, it has been great. We use the half insert with it. We like the bath tub. A few years ago we started using pulks instead of backpacks, as older people they are easier and allow us some extra comfort items. Love you videos !
I need pad straps, I about lost my mind on my last backpacking trip!!!π€¦ββοΈ
Really enjoy your winter camping videos, they are our inspiration for our first attempts this season. We were out at roughly -3C at the coldest this weekend with a properly setup Xmid 2p (block drafts with snow etc) over an aluminum sheet, nemo switchback and etherlight xt insulated together with our new EE Revelation 10F. First time sleeping directly on snow vs a platform and we unfortunately felt the cold quite bad wearing a thick merino shirt (230gsm). I’m an extremely warm sleeper and have gone without shirts in our previous setup (just the etherlight XT ins, KSB 20F sleepingbag over platforms) and felt great at similar temps. I wonder what went wrong this time. It was extremely windy but the tent held well. Any thoughts ?
Lemme get that thermarest nxt review pls
Why a pee bottle? Every single animal pees in the woods. There is no reason why a human shouldn’t be able to do the same.
Hey I just saw that you showed the fire maple blade 2 earlier and now went to the much heavier whisperlite stove.
What was the reason to go to thus heavier stove?
One thing I do not understand: when hiking in the winter, one can take a great food and reheat it, as there is no worries of it spoiling.
So I would prefer to prepare a thick soup, freeze it at home, and ensure it stays frozen. Then add some water and boil it.
This way I can eat clean food.
I thought I went "winter" camping. Then he said -58′! π
outside the sleeping bag, been using SOL Escape Bivvy to cover it… for additional protection from element, from damage, trap and reflect additional heat…
Nice kit mate. Think I need a pee bottle for cold nights never thought about it lol
Very nice review! I love my Ultamid 4. Use it every winter on Mount Rainier for camping. Incredibly roomy and comfortable, even in high winds and heavy snow.
Have also slept very comfortably with four adults in it while hiking Yosemite in the summer. It’s a true one. Quiver tent. I’m just on the fence about buying an insert since I really like the floorless system
Pads aside, how did you establish the -58F sleeping system with the bag and the blanket? BTW, even most winter hikers are unaware of at least one subject you talked about, the consequences of moisture build-up in the sleeping system.
I love the outdoors and I’m just started getting into winter camping. This is great advice, but I have to say, I will never be using a wag bag. If I’m camping somewhere that requires it, I just won’t go there.
You’ve slept at -58F?
The forbidden lemonade
Is the valve any different with the new xtherm. Also it looks blue is that so?
Great video and info. FYI, hand sanitizer does nothing to clean the bacteria from feces that causes diarrhea, use soap. Just sayin.
Great Help! Justin i had been using the Nalgene Flexible bottle for a pee bottle big and hard to pack down, so i will try the Hydrapak Stash thanks again
Good list from an experienced winter camper.
May I recommend the excellent paperback book "MIKE & ALLEN’S REALLY COOL WINTER CAMPING BOOK"? It’s the best I’ve ever fond in decades of winter camping.
I have a -20 F. LL Bean down mummy bag that could go to -30 F. with a light down jacket and down pants. My -30 F. down mountain parka is great for camp duties like setting up camp and cooking.
Merry Christmas and happy new year
Awesome snow
They had to make it 3in so the valve would actually work properly. Without that change the pad material rubs the valve from the inside and causes premature wear.
I took my
Sea to summit ether light
Msr hubba hubba nx
Sea to summit ascent 2
Down to -15 I accidentally went to sleep with the tent door open and woke up with snow everywhere inside
Can you try to recreate a winter set up gor someone who has basically no money? My friend is homeless and about to camp in northern Michigan winter
DIDDY BAG?!
Yeah android!
Here’s why I use a 20oz soda bottle instead of a $22 hiking water bottle when I want to bring a "pee bottle" in the winter:
– It costs nothing.
– It weighs about 1/4 of what the fancy hiking water bottle weighs (0.8 oz vs 3 oz).
– If it freezes (I don’t want to go outside my tent to empty it for the same reason I didn’t want to go outside my tent to empty my bladder) I can just cut it apart instead of trying to melt it somehow.
– I don’t have to worry about a collapsible bottle cracking from the extreme cold and leaking pee into my sleeping bag.
Shouldn’t the reflective side of the Switchback be facing up?
@Justin Outdoors Which snowshoes do you recommend?
so bears and caribou and deer can poop on the snow but people poop will destroy the environment? did someone fail Biology?
great video. but you need an Paris expedition Pulk.
