(Video) An Easy Way to Keep a Tent Warm When it’s Freezing Cold

winter-camping

Camping out in your tent during any sort of weather is fun, but in all except the warm seasons, it can get pretty cold.

In fact, if you pitch a tent after the first hard frost, the chances will increase that the evenings will run below 40 degrees if not below freezing. Brr!

Obviously, if you camp during the heart of winter and have a night above 40 degrees, you are experiencing balmy weather.

Those realities make it vital to keep yourself and anyone else you may be camping with warm — or better yet — comfortably warm.

One way to make sure that happens is to modify the tent and implement this vital element.

To find out what item can keep you warm on the coldest of nights, check out the next page. The video will show you how to install and use this essential element to your advantage!

    There’s about a hundred ways to screw this up and end up burned up or suffocated from carbon monoxide.

    Although I have a deep appreciation for your method, the guy in this video is what we call “smoothing it”. The candles may keep the temp above the freezing temp of 32 degrees but this guy (and myself) would like a nice temp to sleep by. A tent heater/stove is not but around $40 and lasts forever. I’m sure I’d use the candles if that’s all I had.

    You do have to put a stove jack in the tent but I tell ya, it’s awesome.

    Not as complicated as it may seem. A little common sense and nothing bad will happen.

    Backdraft, wind, weight of the 7″ of expected snow, tent catching fire…it wouldn’t take much.

    I bring a bail of straw to my winter camps and put a bunch under the tent and anywhere the mud starts to form!

    Do people actually think before making videos like this. Kids also watch videos and their attention span woudl run to about 2 min into this.. They would come away with Hey let’s build a rocket stove and put it in the tent to stay warm. I’m an adult and would never do this. Look how many open ventilations he had to do to keep the smoke out. Plus he even mentioned the tent was getting dried out.. Thats a fire waiting to start.

    Really a propane Mr Buddy works well no cutting required.

    20# pound tank, with a Coleman tree, gas light, hose to Mr Buddy slept in a canvas and a Blue Trap tent in 13 degree weather in Kansas stayed nice a toasty.
