  • Winter camping in the snow with the Hilleberg Allak tent, at the Bothnian bay sea ice, Sweden. Pulling the gear with a pulk, building my camp for the night, and making dinner and coffee on the Trangia stove. Decently cold and nice conditions for an overnighter. Days are getting brighter and outdoor life quite enjoyable!

    I am so jealous of this guy. His videos are so inspiring but at almost 75 yrs and disabled I can only dream. He is so laid back, no thrashing guitars or useless babble. Just peace and quiet and calm enough to relax a hurricane. Thumbs up to Erik. Long may he hike and give us these wonderful videos.

      @@jyornanthemad lol you re really hung up on this topic. Is it because he didn't guy out his tent in case of severe winds ? he clearly checks the weather and camps accordingly
      I would assume.
      I've seen many of his vids he seems to know what the F* he s doing in the cold but certainly I am curious if you would elaborate more on what makes his camping style
      potentially lethal .
