Description

Zed from Zed Outdoors contacted me, asking me to share some advice and tips for those who are starting out with wild camping in the woods in the winter months. This video my response… In this video I share some tips and tricks for winter camping in the woods. {MORE INFO BELOW}

I often get asked about camping, tarps and winter camping. Particularly when there is snow on the ground or its a bit frosty, people have concerns such as “how do I sleep out in my normal bivvy set up?”, “Do I need to put more clothes on in my normal sleeping bag?”, “Do I need to have a fire?”, “What sleeping bag rating do I need?”, “Am I going to be OK sleeping on the ground in winter?”, “Am I going to be cold sleeping in a hammock in winter?”. All of these questions and concerns are going through people’s heads and, frankly, they can put some people off winter wild camping.

So, this video is for anyone who is looking to head out and camp in a tarp, bivvy or hammock in the woods in winter. Whether you are new to bushcraft and this style of camping or whether you are used to camping out in the woods in summer but want to extend your wild camping forays into the winter months, this video contains some useful tips and advice to help you get the most out of your time in the winter woodland environment.
