3 Days Stove Hut Camping in Heavy Snowfall

As you said: 'Finding comfort in discomfort' is a joy you can't explain but have to experience. Thanks for promoting that experience!

For cleaning the pipe: Use cloth with red spirit or any kind of cleaning spirit works. Was in the military here in norway and we used that every time we were out in the field and had to clean our pipe after been using a hotstove in tents. Hope it helps!

The chopping wood segment/editing was the best..lol EDIT: (I sometimes comment without watching the entire video) Regarding your stove - VERY IMPORTANT - Do NOT push your chimney inside the collar, as suggested in the comments, to fix the smoke issue. If you do, you risk carbon monoxide poisoning while you're asleep. The fix is two-fold. First, your stove should have come with an adjustable clamp (mechanics strap) to secure the chimney to collar. If you don't have one buy one at the hardware store. Then slip it on chimney and place chimney OVER collar. Then tighten strap with hands if you buy the butterfly type. Or use leatherman if nut/screwdriver style. It doesn't have to be super tight, I tighten mine with my hands. And secondly, that chimney is waaay too tall for the height of that tent. It has little support for the height and "could" collapse in strong wind even though you have it guyed out. Rule of thumb is never more than 50% above tallest peak of tent, ideally a 2-3 feet above tallest peak of tent. A much shorter chimney will retain heat travelling less distance and the pipe temperature reducing carbon build up. No need for clean fire log. Hope this helps, Xander. You continually produce some of the best outdoor content on YouTube.

I think this is my favorite Xander wood chop montage to date. Something very satisfying about the massive pile of rounds being turned to splinters in rapid succession. As always love the story telling of the video and the essence of the adventure. So glad the channel is doing so well. Thanks for the effort to share.

This is peak Xander content! 20-30min, nice fire, some hunting, lots of snow, cooking and humor! It’s all we can ask for

I know you may not see this, but recently has been consistently the most traumatic few weeks of my life. this makes me smile and takes my mind off of things, which is weird cuz its just u out camping n shit and I have never even gone camping since I was like 7, but I don't know, I love it. I can normally not focus on one thing for more than a few minutes but I could sit through this really easy, thank you man.

As an Ontario hunter myself, you are only required to wear orange during the rifle / muzzleloading seasons if you are carrying a valid deer/moose/ bear licence. But for hunting small game with bow or gun orange is not required, but still recommend if your hunting in an area with an open rifle season for big game

This was seriously the best Xander!! The “YESSSSS”, burger scene, your face when the coyotes were howling, the beautiful snow scenes.. thanks for being you. ❤

Might I dare say, this is by far my favorite channel. Thank you for all the great content!

Better and better every video, thank you for taking us along on your journey.

As a Canadian winter camper or outdoor enthusiast in general, I must say your videos are the most enjoyable on YouTube by far!! From the genuine no bs storytelling, plus the awesome fun loving characters in the “staged” bits. Keep the vids coming 🙏

This channel is really fun camping for days and explaining or chatting, unlike the others just building a hut and it's done greetings from Indonesia🇮🇩🇮🇩

I feel it’s always good to wear hunters orange during the winter in the wild where you’re located. Especially during hunting season of any kind. If nothing else, the hat. You can never go wrong. Great camping ! I think the best part of your camping experiences is that you always manage to have fun. You bring us along like we’re your best friends. You aren’t afraid to show us both your successes and failures. As for your stove pipe, it’s not always possible, if you start your fire with pine and burn hardwood you’ll cut down on the pitch buildup in your chimney. A buildup can cause a chimney fire. Thanks for bringing us along on your adventure!!

Love the editing in this one. Wood chopping came out great. I was half expecting that second sequence to sound like a Christmas carol. Thanks for the video

I absolutely LOVE your wood chopping montages. Never change!

This videos really excite me and make me relax. Without music, just xander chilling in the woods. It is some kind of therapy. Thank you for this.

xander i just wanna say this is probably my third year now watching your videos and i have been struggling a lot these three years but every time i watch you it’s like looking at a mirror of what i could be some day, thank you for making it seem possible for all of us to find peace in happiness in what we do much love man ❤

Great video! Since I'm into archery myself, the stump shooting part was great. And I agree, there's no feeling like finding comfort in uncomfortable situations, disaster everywhere around you makes that tiny cozy space the most luxurious thing ever...

we need people like you because without them world would be a empty sad place i wish you the best !

Not since Robert Rodriguez's Desperado has there been such taut action editing. Those wood chops! Shivers down my spine!
