Solo Winter Camping Under a Tarp in a Snowstorm - Algonquin Park

To kick off the start of winter camping season in Algonquin Park I headed into the backcountry during the first real snowstorm of the winter. I spend one night winter camping under a tarp tucked into an Algonquin Park hardwood forest. The temperatures were mild and it made for a relaxing enjoyable backcountry trip.

I went looking for "winter tarp camping" and you popped up. Awesome set up! LOVE your knots; I'm still learning those and your process was well filmed - I think I can do that. Shelter first, then fire - exactly right, even if it's dark. Liking your channel; subbed. Cheers!

Not a word spoken, nor needed. Great film Alec.

You have that awesome hot tent and you are out winter camping with a tarp! Good for you Alec, back to basics and closer to nature. Adversity and discomfort brings out the best in a person, although you looked pretty comfortable. Beautiful second day with the blue sky and sun glistening off the snow. Keep filming, Fraser, Lisa and I enjoyed watching this together. You are living your passion.

Alec, Thanks for taking us along. We haven't gotten any snow yet where I am and I am so anxious for a snowy winter camp. Excellent.

Well I have to admit this is the first video I have seen where the lack of speaking really works! Your filming was awesome! Snow and blue sky was fantastic! At first I thought you were setting up a hammock but when it turned out to be a tarp, I was amazed! Your an awesome outdoorsman! How you handled doing that was unbelievable but it proved to me that nothing is impossible if you know what your doing! Great video and thanks for all the hard work you had to do to share that adventure with us!

Hey Alec, great video! Today I watched your 5 day solo trip series and I'm wondering if you would consider doing a video where you go through all of the gear that you use. I'm trying to plan a trip for sometime in May and I'm having trouble finding a list of all of the gear that I'll need. Keep up the great work!

I love watching these winter camping videos, no offense to anyone but I like this quite presentation. It is so soothing. Just the gentle music and sounds of the falling snow coupled with the sounds of the activity. Loved this.
