Hot tent camping in winter during snow fall. camping in snow storm with lightweight hot tent and wood stove in the forest on this winter camping adventure. Learn more in the video below…

On this adventure I went hot tent snow camping in old growth forest. I’ve always wanted to hot tent camp here in the snow. Many of the trees are hundreds of years old and hundreds of feet tall. The forest gives off an eerie vibe but it is absolutely stunning to see. It snowed almost non stop the entire trip and temperatures stayed around 23 F (-5 C). I cooked up some delicious cheese steak sandwiches on the wood stove for dinner and had scrambled eggs for breakfast. I hope you enjoy the beautiful forest in this video!

If you thought it’s impossible to live completely off-grid, take a look at this video. It features a family of 7 that has achieved complete off the grid status in Northern Canada. With less than $25,000, the couple with 5 girls managed to build their own off-grid cedar post house together with all of the amenities a home of this type requires. That includes a couple of solar power systems, one small (for the lights and phones) and a large one (for the fridge and other big appliances). Take into account that the family has a backup generator for use in the snowy periods or at times where there is too cloudy, that’s only 40 hours per year. There is also a firewood and wood stove for cooking and heating. Watch the entire video and discover how fulfilling an off-the-grid life can be.

With a lot of people not affording financially a large house or apartment like they used to in the 1990s and which you commonly see paraded provocatively on TV shows or movies, the tiny home option has become increasingly attractive. An off the grid tiny house is even more sought because it gives the owner a financial freedom that they wouldn’t find with another accommodation option. In the video provided here you can witness the installing of a rain gutter for the rain water collection at the site of an Off Grid Solar Cabin. The building is completely self-sustained, with a couple of 250 watt solar panels supplying a 500 watt Solar Panel System and a wind power turbine. The inhabitants are keeping their food cold with the help of a Coleman refrigerator and have a Wood stove installed inside for heating. A composting toilet is fitted inside as well so the off-grid characteristic of the home is 100% accurate. Take the video tour provided here; you will be impressed by how awesome a tiny home like this one can look.
