Well we're in beautiful Algonquin Park once again this is day three of a four-day snowshoe sled pull we came in two days ago and it was super cold the the highs of the both to the prior days were negative 20 degrees Celsius and that is what Fahrenheit yeah negative to Fahrenheit so at night the first night dropped down to negative 37 Celsius.
Negative 35 Fahrenheit the reason I'm telling you this is because our camera our cameras really wouldn't work we kept the batteries in our pockets and and not only did that not help the cameras are too cold to touch is hurting our hands so a lot of things went this trip kicked our asses that's basically it so I'm going to put this as an intro vid and.
Then I'm going to show you the clips that I have not very many at all we didn't get anything yesterday but that's how it is so these not as bad it's supposed to get down to what was it tonight like that yeah negative 30 which is still real cold we're gonna post up in here and have a good night a fire in the wood.
Stove we snowshoe in for about an hour and a half today here in Algonquin Park we're doing the menacing trail and set up campus about four o'clock now it's cold man it's like it's supposed to gets down to negative 34 so I'll see us tonight it's probably negative 30 already a is cold with it before the windchill so we.
Got all set up and we're just getting firewood and hopefully we're gonna be able to get enough to last us for a couple hours before we head in we got this fire going with Kevin walks twigs we were looking for prying but this is wearing a hemlock over right now that's some birch bark we got all our fire wood stack up for the night we're.
Silly till about 6 o'clock before I start cooking dinner and whatnot it's getting real dark real quick well we're both feeling pretty good now not too cold at all sitting by the fire warming up it could also be the rum though not the fire but who's to know got down to negative 37 when I say Celsius with 35 all right yeah and our rum.
Froze the alcohol our sorry the MSR stove is supposed to work in extreme cold fails crap so we're using a fire which still works a negative 37 degrees and we're just gonna heat up the water for oatmeal and hopefully pack up the parts to use my hands well after being in the woods for three days and two nights a real real cold.
Weather we came across this cow and it's a godsend we're gonna spend the night in here and dry our sleeping bags so they're all wet with condensation and whatnot got this nice cast iron wood stove we're gonna pump that baby full up full firewood just eat like kings and relax this is our last night here so it's kind.
Of like a reward for our hardships in the woods uses so every time we go camping with the exception of backpacking I really could get away without using a knife I got this Celilo bushcrafter used as a neck knife for this trip I can't even remember bringing it up pulling it out once using my axe for everything.
Making tripods for cooking over the fire splitting wood clearing brush for my tent everything you just it's just much easier to use in the winter time for me on a backpacking trip I would use a knife because I'm not bringing an axe it's just plain and simple but this is a wetterling's 26 inch it's an old one done up real nice I like it I've had it.
For a long time it works real well for me I ended up tying two orange lanyard I'm not an advocate of lane use at all but I dropped this in the snow quite a few times and I'm not worried about it the lanyard shows up it's all good mitts and gloves it was a system this time it's been so cold that you cannot wear not wear gloves it doesn't matter.
You can't not wear gloves for more than five minutes and your fingers never known they hurt so I have these surplus mitts they're really good thick leather they work for just generally having on working around the fire moving the grill all that kind of stuff but when you need to have dexterity which you do I'm doing zippers and packing up camp we move to.
Camp every day have these North Face gloves their fleece and they got a little bit of grip on them and they work real well putting that on now I haven't had it on a couple of hours that's freezing cold but you get going and it gets it gets warmer or whatever but so basically two two sets of gloves for something like this I.
Think is ideal we're really starting to feel the warmth now we've had this wood stove kick in for a while we've got our sausages on here defrosting snow melting ice melting over the Nalgene we got our butt wipes which are baby wipes but they froze all the ice you thawing there we are really comfortable now in here this well here we are getting packed up ready.
To leave we got some oatmeal to eat still we stayed real warm and real comfortable last night real dry and we got a pack up walk about five five-and-a-half clicks to get out and that's it we're in the car now heading home we hadn't figured it out we did about 15 to 20 kilometers in 3 days 4 days 3 nights.
you just a little weather recap the whole time we were out we didn't get above.
Negative 20 Celsius as a high in the daytime first night near 37 second night negative 34 third night negative 34 and today now that we're driving out it's negative 11 which is like perfect weather to be Oded but whatever it's all good I had a great time learned a lot and if you want to stay tuned for some dumb.
You yes I've been ready are you ready - purr - okay just saw it nobody's paint nobody's painting talk nobody's paying you to talk yeah try - hey warm Naoko finally yes it's great
