The Truth About 4 Season Winter Tents

A question that I receive every single fall/winter is this;

Do I really need a 4 Season Tent for Winter Camping?

In this video, I have 3 tents set up;
- This is a 3 season summer tent.
- This is a 4 season budget tent.
- This is a 4 season high end tent.

Throughout this video we will be comparing these tents and I will explain when each of them should be used and when they shouldn't be.

I backpacked for over 40 years. My time is over, but this guy is the real deal. Don't buy a thing without checking with him. Because I can't do it anymore, I enjoy these videos. I still enjoy going into a camping retail store and looking a gear even though my time is over. None of this was available in my day. I had to buy and test along the way, but you guys have this wonderful fella telling you all about it and he knows what he is talking about and is very good on camera. No duhs in his talks. Knowledge with on camera abilities makes the best site on the internet. Thank you Luke for all you do.

I bought the one Tigris based on your review. It showed up last week and I set it up to check it out. Materials are nice. Seams are sewn nicely and seam sealed. I'm planning a trip now and since I'm in PA there will be cold temps. I've taken my 3 season tent in temps as low as 26 degrees and it was cold so ill be excited to experience the difference in heat retention

Afternoon Luke I'm testing out a tent ⛺ from Walmart and because of your videos it's helping me out a lot with knowledge of camping I've been very limited experience with camping and thanks for your honesty with your videos

[macmanmcmaster]

I absolutely love my Alps Tasmanian 3 person 4th Season tent ! It is priced right and has held up to an Excellent standard to all winter camping conditions !

I have that One Tigris Stella in my Amazon shopping cart. The only thing stopping me from buying is that I own the LiteFighter, but it needs the winter fly. The crazy thing is that it costs 200.00. For that price I can buy the Stella and keep the LiteFighter as my all around tent. It’s a tough little tent.🤙

Luke. We watch your channel for so many years n find it useful n helpful. Thanks n have a happy new year.👈🎄🎁🎉🙂

[camouflage]

I appreciate these videos a whole lot, being aware of the prime audience/targeted group of viewers. I enjoy most the "instructor style" by which the entire content is getting presented via means of modern communication tools (since only a few of us were serving, I reckon) - keep going, man - and a big Thank You!

[GoofyKahn]

Luke, thanks to you and your reviews of various products I have been able to make informed decisions. I am still pretty new to the outdoor community and because of you it has kept me from making monumental mistakes. I hope one day if I'm back east I have the chance to meet you, it would an honor and privilege to shake your hand and say thank you.

[dennisdaly]

Thank you for your hard work, you may have saved someone from a disastrous adventure.
I've been an outdoorsman from when I was 8 but you have taught me a thing or two. THANK YOU

[robertsalido]

Really like your channel and honored to be one of your followers. That said, my last Profession, was strict with training, combat and situational awareness. I would like you to share with your fans, stuff you use all the time. How to use, the sky, sun direction stars. How to read the land, weather and the importance of senses in the wild. "A man died on the Appalachian Trail 2 nights ago. Hypothermia and Thirst. Got to know how to plan your journey. YOU ARE THAT PERSON. You are amazing! Now make and educate some new campers too. To you and your family, ...Happy New Year.

I just ordered that Onetigris Stella. been camping year round with a 3 season tent, its do-able with good gear, but not always the most comfortable. Having a fabric wall vs mesh should make the whole system a little more comfortable when the temps drop.

[marmacher]

You can order a Hilleberg Mesh inner tent. Bought on for my Unna just days ago.

Hey Luke, love your work. I have been catching up on a lot of your older videos over the holidays. I would really like to know if you think the Pomoly Leo 2 tent could be good jack of all trades? Throwing in a Pomoly T1 Mini stove for the colder weather, since the combined weight isn't too bad. Plus having essentially four doors/windows and ventilation, gives plenty of airflow for the warmer months.

Most folks ain't never gonna need the fourth season advantage of a 4th season tent. They ain't as tough as you are, playa. Most campers ain't gonna camp when it is really cold. I have done it.... many moons ago. I ain't doin' it now. All your points are valid. But camping for millions of people is never gonna be done when it is really cold. It is just too uncomfortable. It can be dangerous as well. But it is also a struggle. Muscles work slower; bones creak; hands need gloves and gloves are tough to work with on things. Skin gets dry, and sleeping bags take a long time to warm up. It is just an exercise in futility for many. I would rather camp in above 50 degrees.

[jadenkrosis]

Hey Luke I`d like to see you test an review one of the shelters from Overland(ish) or maybe Shift Pod. They`re very similar, rather expensive but look promising. (just like everything lol.)

[CrimeVid]

If you need a 4 season tent, you really do ! I have never tried deep snow camping, but been in Norway with snow coming down, in an old fashioned heavy canvas tent and to be honest it was marginal, just warm enough to sleep, could have used a stove for sure.

[suezaple]

Well explained well shown Thank you Luke very helpful.

[olipumpum]

On the topic of 'All Season' tents, it would be great if you could do a review on the new Terra Nova Laser Compact AS tent, as that is advertised as a true all season tent. Would love to hear your thoughts on it! 🇬🇧

[NadesikoRose]

Based on your reviews on their products, I have decided on getting my next tent from either Naturehike or OneTigris or maybe one from each. I haven’t fully made up my mind yet 😅….
I am also checking out the brand Night Cat, their products look good….but I am not sure yet….

[brianbogue]

I would be interested in hearing about the weights of these different products.
