In planning for the overnight Snow Cat adventure for McCall in 2020 I would like to get some tips on what an experienced winter camper would have onboard...for emergencies and for fun. McCall Crew

Think that Tucker Bus will fit the whole gang...living room, bunk house, kitchen- all in one rig
Squirels are the best winter campers....... they build a Wikiup, which are quite effective. Snow trenches are also effective. Igloos although effective are very time consuming and hard to build alone. (If you do build one, build a small fire to glaze the inside and make sure you leave a small vent hole.)If you have the convenience of a snowcat with a blade, building a snow structure it’s very easy. And if you bring 2” rigid insulation even easier. It also is nice to place underneath your sleeping bag on your sleeping shelf in your snow structure.
Snow is very good insulation,a candle along with body heat will get the inside
Very comfortable. always leave a vent hole about 3” and if possible build a raised sleeping area at -30F in a small well built snow structure it can be above freezing inside. even warmer with a small heat source like a candle or fire heated rocks for the night.
The pop up ice fishing tents make very nice winter tents.... quick and easy to set up!
When I go out in winter for at least 4 nights, this is camp. 1hr to set up, and a bit to haul, so not for overnighters.
Bet it comes with Sno-Cat valet service too. .
I'm with MNoutdoors, Igloo is a cool way to go.
Hey Drifter, do you know how to make that stronger? Use IG Glue
I was afraid you wood call it some kinda restroom.
