In this two part series, Miyagi tests out his new DIY "TrailCraft Designs Tundra Tent". Join Miyagi, Milosh, Shaggy, The Birch Lord, and Carlos in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness of Minnesota for some extreme deep winter hot tent and hammock camping. Temperatures reached a balmy 45 degrees, something rare in the BWCA in February. Watch along as the Midwest Crew uses Pulk sleds and freight toboggans to navigate the BWCA trails to Whale Lake to set up basecamp for four days of camping as they explore the highest point in Minnesota. Stay tuned in for all the fun and frivolity that you've come to expect from this bunch of backcountry misfits...The Midwest Crew! Thanks for watching...fist bumps ya'll ~ Miyagi
