  • @earlgrey691
    @earlgrey691 9 месяцев назад +1

    Top notch as ever.Can't help but wonder why these types of stoves aren't made a bit... bigger to avoid hourly replens throughout the night allowing ,say, 3 hour sleep patterns? They must exist but haven't encountered one yet.

    • @careenaalexis
      @careenaalexis  9 месяцев назад +2

      To be honest I don't think it's the size of the stove so much as how crafty it is, it's not airtight AT ALL so it burns so hot that everything burns up faster than it would in an airtight stove. That's just my observation from using it over the past year or so. Thanks so much for watching!

    Great little overnight camp Careena. Editing was spot on. I’ve still got my Paraffin lantern from the 70s when I was in the scouts. I used it recently when I had a power cut due to bad weather. I’ve got other modern forms of emergency lighting but I love the smell and the gentle glow of the lantern. Just gives you that cosy feel around you. 👍

    • @careenaalexis
      @careenaalexis  9 месяцев назад

      In my experience doing this for many years, a floor is clunky, heavy and would actually be a LOT less convenient than you would think. Not only would the snow melt unevenly under your stove, your floor would then freeze to the ground and would be impossible to pack up.

  • @BBQDad463
    @BBQDad463 9 месяцев назад

    Thank you for this video. It would appear you had a great camp-out. I love those kerosene lanterns.
    The only complaint I could make against those stoves is what you noted: Having to feed it every hour or so.
    I wonder how long a full charge of anthracite coal would burn, with the draft pinched down to the bare minimum? I must summon up the courage to purchase the largest titanium stove and see how long I can make it burn anthracite.
    Watching you make that sandwich reminded me of the way my Mother made "greasy bread"---when bacon produced a lot more grease than it does today. (I am 71.) After the bacon, home fries, and eggs came two or three lightly toasted slices of bread. Each got a quick dab into a skillet of bacon grease, a sprinkle of finely-chopped, sauteed onions, and a tiny dash of salt 'n' pepper. (O! Dearest Mother, just once more!) Then out the door for a day of sled-riding!
    So... I thank you for evoking that memory.

    Looks like a well seasoned piece of cast iron ya got there; for a Lodge that is ;-) . Love your solo stuff especially when you lean into more of the "traditional" style. Seeing younger folks carrying on the traditional ways and using those skills warms the heart of this old grey beard. What some younger folks call nostalgic stuff, I just call "gear". Keep driving on.

    Love your videos as always, have the opposite challenge - we are about to reach peak Summer heat in Australia, so I am reluctant to use my camping equipment, unless I can find a spot near a waterway for a swim, which is remarkably difficult, where I live is the extremely popular Gold Coast, so all options are blocked by privately owned land. I could camp in a caravan park, but that defeats the joy of wilderness camping. I will keep searching and be prepared to drive 100’s of kilometres.
