  • It is February 16th, 2019 in NWPA. The sun is going down and the temperatures are dropping fast. I have no sleeping bag or tent. Instead, I have a wool blanket, a wool coat and a 70-year old piece of canvas called the plash palaktas. This is my 3rd trip winter camping in 3 weeks. These trips have also been my first experiences ever with camping in winter.

    Just FYI they're called Plash-palaTKA (not palakta) greatcoats - плащ-палатка шинель, in case any of y'all want to buy one.

    It's great going out and experimenting with different gear learning along the way what works best and what doesn't work at all. It 's a learning experience that few will ever know but we can pass it on ,,,,, as long as we don't die in the process ,,,,, lol. Great video. Awesome Great Coat and Loving your channel keep up the good work.

    Hi Jess ..
    If you see this .. this one has just popped up on my feed.
    👍👍👍 ..
    Going forward to the now, it's nice to see that you haven't deviated from the spirit and content of your posts .. unlike many other You Tubers out there who dump a neverending stream of 'new gear' onto the channel, 'unbiased' reviews .. much of which just 'variations on a theme' / consumerism for the sake of and beyond the price range of many of us.
    A nice blast from the past this one and a good reminder to never forget our roots. Winter is again with us and my Woollen Budget Store Top Coat, together with a vintage Cashmere Wool Scarf, is been brought up from the Cellar and hangs at the front entrance.
    Thanks, my Friend and take care .. Tommy

      Thanks Tommy! This was one of my favorite trips. A lot of trial and error. Coyotes came in close that night. Must have gotten a kill, because the racket they made was an absolute frenzy. There I was, fire burnt out, batteries in my headlamp about toasted, thinking I had worse things to deal with than the cold 🤣 Good times. I have been fortunate with the channel and the gear these past few years. It has been compensation of sorts. It is nice, but at the end of the day, gear is not the end all be all. For me, it is spending time in nature and developing skills. Have a good one my friend 🤝

      You could make one with a speedy stitch surprisingly easy. A palatka or something similar folded in half, cut a T (sized to arms and torso), the remaining material use for hood and pocket.

    Hey awesome video.
    Just wanted to ask what side you get your great coat in, and would you advise getting the coat in a size large then a regular coat? Like let I usually get a coat in 42 inch chest, so would I be better off sizing up for the ability to fit more layers under the coat, or would a great coat come in an already larger size of that scale.
    Just curious on reference, I've been trying to get my own, thanks for any help/advise.

    • @EnduranceRoom
      @EnduranceRoom  Před 5 lety +2

      Felix Wulf awesome! Yeah, I am not sure on the size of my coat honestly. I Would try a few on if you can. They are fantastic. I would go a little large so you can add layers . I can wear mine over my anorak, which is awesome for sleep wear. Good luck in your search! Sportsman’s Guide has some Czech greatcoats that look pretty sharp.
