Video Discription |
On a cold snowy winter day I find myself stranded in the Canadian wilderness with a small survival kit I keep in my vehicle. I put my kit to the test to survive the night during a -20°C snowstorm.
Thank you to everyone who watches! God bless.
More info about the video and the gear I used:
First off, this is just a scenario depicting what I'd do in a situation where I was stranded in the outdoors. I spend a lot of time alone in the wilderness and there's been many times where my vehicle has broken down or gotten stuck and I've had to call for help. If I had been unable to get help in those situations this video is an accurate representation of what I would do.
Location: Alberta, Canada
Why not spend the night in my vehicle?
In this scenario my vehicle will not start. That means no heat. A winter night inside of a non-running vehicle would be very cold compared to the camp I had. If the vehicle had been running then perhaps staying in the vehicle would be an option. It mainly depends on how much fuel you have. It should also be noted that staying inside of an idling vehicle can be dangerous because of exhaust fumes. The correct choice of whether or not to stay in your vehicle is very situational. In the scenario shown in this video, I felt the correct choice was to sleep outside.
What was the temperature during this video?
It started off around -15°C (5°F) base temperature and -25°C (-13°F) with the wind chill. During the night the coldest it got was -21°C (-6°F) base temperature and -30°C (-22°F) with the wind chill.
What about wildlife?
There's a variety of big game (moose, deer, grizzly bears, black bears, cougars, wolves) in this area. They tend to avoid humans for the most part and don't pose much of a threat. I figured due to the weather most animals would be bedded down and waiting out the storm but to my surprise in the morning when I hiked out there were fresh wolf tracks all over the place.
How much sleep did I get?
I got approximately 6 hours of sleep, getting up once throughout the night to tend to the fire.
What clothing was I wearing?
I was obviously at a huge advantage during this video since I was wearing proper footwear and clothing for the weather which is always the case whenever I'm in the backcountry.
Upper body clothing (4 layers):
Cotton base layer, Hooded cotton/wool blend sweater, Wool sweater, Waxed cotton jacket
Lower body clothing (3 layers):
Cotton base layer, Wool pants, Waxed cotton pants
Footwear:
Thick cotton socks, Sorel Pac Boots
