I'm looking to build a box blind to keep from freezing my tail off in the great north woods. I need some inspiration. I would love to see pictures of what some of you cold weather hunters use to hunt and stay comfortable in.

I am involved in a gravity box blind right now......it is awesome. I do not know how to post photos.

Sits about 8 feet high maybe more, can pull it around with truck or tractor. Like sitting in an aquarium viewing room. Deer walking right past it.

Has a nu wave 20,000 but heater, silent, very little light. Boils water chimney. Room to sleep in.

Dancing in the moonlight.

Buy a folding melon container like grocery stores put watermelons in.
Heavy plastic jobs build like a brick chit house.

Here is the Jagendehutte:

It is made from a packing crate, skid runners and some leftover siding. Built it in 2003. We renovated it in 2017 with a new roof.

12 to 20 mph wind

Two feet of snow.

That is pretty nifty.

If I were to build one I would modify the shape to imitate a round bale of hay.
