Hey all I know if I lived in the great white north I would be out there and some cold wouldn't stop me that's for certain.
Everyone can talk a good game. Ever been out daylight to dark late fall through midwinter?....all day every day regardless conditions? Try that for 5 or 6 years and suddenly actually sleeping ("camping") outside becomes a another detail to accomplish not something to be feared.

I'm thinking a wall tent and wood stove might get sort of toasty. Geez, sort of like a mobile tar paper shack.......
