Some things you guys have taught me in response to this video that I want to highlight:
-The dangers of teflon non-stick pans, especially over the high heat of an open fire. Had "Dark Waters" recommended to me on Netflix and that was a very worthwhile watch.
-Alcohol fuels shouldn't be stored in this MSR fuel bottle because it's lined with aluminum and methanol with corrode it. Need to use a plastic bottle.
-I knew methanol was highly toxic to ingest (as far as I know it's safe once combusted) but it can be absorbed by the skin so watch out
That's right. It's best to avoid pfas non stick and any plastic too if you can. Try avoid eating or drinking anything out of them, especially when heated. And avoid spraying deet near food too. They all have chemicals that cause health problems in the user and any future offspring. I would like to stick to stainless, wood and cast iron. Stuff people have been using for millennia.
Great idea using Reflectic’s, for Thermal and Sound Deadening reasons too, no more Rattling Pots! Nothing more annoying to me, than walking around, announcing my presences wherever i go . . .
question: do you guys have to get special permission to film in the canadian rockies?? like, from the parks?
@@andrabook8758 why would you need a permit to film in nature?
@@Sonkens bc...canada rules? dunno, just asking
That's why I love this channel, it never feels like Jon is shilling gear, and the irony is that because of it, I would actually buy the gear he talks about.
Hahah much appreciated!!
Yep, same here. I've bought a couple things he uses after seeing his experiences with them, and I NEVER buy gear based on celebrity endorsements lol
@@tracyelsinger1088 💚💚
I agree. He's always a subjective review of products and cant be bought. I have the utmost trust and respect for Jon and his fiance. Plus he just makes great videos. my kids are now watching him.
You have an awesome channel Jon. I’ve been learning a lot. Congratulations on 100K subscribers! You certainly earned it. Here’s to the next 100K 🍻
Thanks so much Kyle, really appreciate that!! 🍻
Love your channel too Kyle! And Martins old off grid cabin. He’s been doing RUclips for like 12 yrs.
Smart never thought about inhaling the smoke from a fire smart thinking brother.
Thanks FIOG :) Probably fine once in a while but all things in moderation
Looks like you've updated your amazon list which we love for gear ideas and finding specific items that you have mentioned! Appreciate you shouting out others where appropriate. Kevin has some great videos - lots to learn from him in the dehydrating game!
Thanks a lot MfM! His book is a real wealth of knowledge
@@LostLakes I am having a difficult time finding the amazon list lately! Has it disappeared for anyone else?
@@doubledupoutdoors1494 should be linked in all the video descriptions 🙂
You are soooooooooo welcome my friend! So warms my heart to see it's well loved!!!
💚💚
I have used the “koozie” material to retain heat with my home brewing (mash tun). Great stuff
When I was in the Boy Scouts way back when.... we learned to "soap the pots" which meant smearing dishwashing liquid on the outside of the pots. After you finished cooking, you could easily wash all the soot off the outside of the pots.
I like the nesting of the pots, cozy's, etc. Super efficient on space in your bag.
Thanks for the update Jon. I’m in the process of getting my own cook kit together, I find these type of videos extremely helpful in helping me plan what I want to buy. Every time, I see your and Erin’s subscriber number go up, I get super stoked.....I look forward to seeing your channel hit 100k
Hahah thanks so much cg83!!
Congrats bud!!!100k!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look forward to being here for a million!!!! Keep them coming man!!!
Thanks a million No54!!!!!
Thank you for this! I've just started looking into updating my cookware system and was looking for some reasonably priced pots. Also I love the idea of the pot cozy! Kudos :)
Thanks Kate! :)
Thank you for sharing the cozy.
I love that you don't just run out and buy the next greatest kit, even tho it is no doubt tempting lol. Mad respect for how you reduce reuse recycle.
Btw, we're back in canada man! If the thought to collab comes to your mind, I'd love to hear about it :)
Cheers!
Great info Jon. I’ve been using my cozy’s for years and there great for rehydration. Never thought of winter water use so thx for the tip.
Thanks a lot Ian!
Nice!! I can’t wait for your next trip!
I too having been looking to update and downsize my cook system. Thanks for the ideas! BTW , I use the reflectix foil as a liner between my sleeping bag and hammock to keep the "bottom" warm. Great video! Thank you.
Great overview of your new and improved cooking system and thanks so much for the shout out and including links to my book Backcountry Eats!
Thanks for the fantastic book sir! You deserve much success with it
So stoked to see that this channel has grown! Much deserved my friend. Hope you and the misses are doing very well. Happy trails
Thanks a million Marc!
Solid video for some good information to add to the knowledge base. Good point about the fire smoke especially. Thanks.
Much appreciated
thanks for the tip on the dehydrated pineapple ..new favorite! enjoy all you canoe trips ..
So good 🙂 Thanks Lauren!
Hey Jon,
Love the channel and your work. I'm from Australia, have never seen snow, my camping is a very different style to yours, but nonetheless I am always in awe of the amazing world you show off. Your videography skills are great, a pleasure to watch.
Keep up the good work.
Really appreciate that Kyle!!
You just blew my mind. Thank you for this idea!!! I bought this SoLite stove sooo long ago that uses methyl hydrate. It works perfect in my bush buddy, and the best part is that it nest in the middle of it. I enjoy my bush buddy but I do enjoy the convenience of fuel. Best of both now thanks to you
Hahah glad to hear it TAP!!
Great video - I know ‘gear review’ type videos aren’t your favourite, but they’re always insightful. I love using a pot cozy - a super helpful item to be sure!
Thanks a lot UO :)
Thanks for the video...I can feel your anticipation and excitement for your first conoe trip...the preparation and fine tuning is half the fun...or part of it anyways.
Thanks Paul! Absolutely...turning over the fishing kit too and the ice fishing gear just went into the shed 😁
@@LostLakes lol...figured u were done with that!😂😂
Thanks very much for sharing your contents of your cook kit. It's given me some ideas to revamp my own before canoe season starts.
Thanks Mark, glad to hear it!
Hey brother, your content takes me back to the northern latitudes I used to call home, your dedication and hard work are most appreciated. Take care 🤙
Much appreciated Eli!
Good insight about inhaling too much campfire smoke. I was thinking about that exact thing yesterday after feeling a campfire cough and my lungs felt "exhausted" from campfire inhalation before. Love your channel and content. Thanks!!
Thanks a lot Josh! Cities are banning wood heat in homes because they contribute to pollution so much...when I think about that or the health of chimney sweeps back in the day, I can't help but imagine that it could be bad for me
Awesome, I've been meaning to make myself some cozies. Thanks, besides riveting it is also helpful.
Hahah glad to hear Tom :)
Great video Jon. Always appreciate a gear breakdown. Cheers!
Thanks a lot Matthew!
Thanks for sharing tips and ideas. Also loved that you tested titanium vs stainless steel boil time.
Thanks again :)
Cool to see a well dialed in cook setup for canoe camping. I like the alcohol stove add on and the koozie's. For what you cook that setup is perfect. Fish and dehydrated meals. My son is hooked on your garlic bread and chili. Stay good brother.
Hahah right on! Thanks Erich :)
I've seen a LOT of cook kit videos...this is simple, includes a lot of tips and ideas combined in one place and is, as usual, well done. Looking forward to Spring and seeing you put some FISH in that skillet!
Much appreciated Tim! With any luck, a fish in the pan could be less than 2 weeks away :)
I know these videos probably don’t get the most views, but they are my favourite! Thanks John your insights are always spot on
Thanks a lot T&H! Definitely not many views and sometimes lose subs lol. But hopefully of use to the "core audience" 🤠
I’m going to have to check out Kevin’s channel for the dehydrating content, sounds like good recipes
Jon! Thanks for doing these kinds of videos still! I know they may not get as many views as other videos but it's still very much appreciated!
I watch all your couch vids, they're super helpful and a good change of pace from the regular content on the channel. (camera gear, packing, food, etc etc.)
It really sucks backpackers, campers, bushcrafters, etc. have to depend heavily on what kind of content they post in order to reach a larger audience. I still appreciate the effort though.
Also, still growing relatively fast! 3 million views on that one video (mind boggling). Noticed some hate too, it's ridiculous lol.
I saw a guy try to argue with YOU about your ethics and environmental footprint. Which is just hilarious honestly. You're like one of the few campers I see, go out of their way to record picking up trash and ridiculing the ones who leave areas worse than they found them.
ANYWAY, been binging your older content (2017/18/19) and it's still just as good man. Just got through the 95 Days in the wild series, very good. :)
Temagami, Quetico and the Pukaskwa videos are my favorites still! Some criminally underrated videos on this channel forsure.
Nice. Good ideas overall. Always love the gear content coming from your channel!
Thanks a lot Alex!
enjoy your winter trips for sure, but always look forward to river exploration. Good cook kit, like the cozies
Thanks Chris, can't wait to get back in the canoe :)
Great video, a lot of information coming out of your Gob. Sooooo funny.
😝😝 Thanks Doug!
Bright video John I hope you're going to use those dishes lots of time thank you for the video.
Thanks Halina :)
BAM!!! 100K!! Congrats my friend!!
Thanks a bunch Scotty!!!
Oops spilling coffee...didn't miss a beat. Love it!
😜
Fantastic show and tell.loved it.
Thanks a lot Jason!
Backcountry Eats is an awesome book. I love the butter chicken recipe
Good set up
absolutely riviting. Thanks
Dude! You’re almost at 100k subscribers. Well deserved when you hit it man! So many awesome adventures
Thanks so much Adam!!
Whoa! congrats on the 100k. Last time I noticed your numbers it was 99k few days later boom 103k!!!
Thanks a lot Joe!!
I can hardly wait
🤠🤠
Very nice! Thank you for sharing
Thanks Gilles!
Nice one with the R-foil. Thanks for that.
You could add up to 10% of destilated water to your trangia fuel minimizing the soot regarding your mentioned smoke breathing.
Greets from Austria
Thanks Sören! Good call :)
SO close to 100K subs! You deserve it dude. Keep on keeping on.
Thanks so much Stephen!!
Great info
Great video Jon! You may want to look into a Fancy Feast or cat can alcohol stove. Inexpensive and doesn’t require a pot stand. Pot can go right on the stove with no priming required.
Thanks MWO! That's a good call, though the stick stove has become a staple for me so the stand is essentially in my kit already...but the cat food can would certainly be lighter
I'm a big fan of the Kelly kettle. I stepped down to the trekker version. That along with a stainless water bottle works great. Boil up and store in the bottle, then put another on. Heat up meals really easy. I can see how if you want to avoid smoke it makes sense to use a fuel stove
I've been tempted to get one of their kettles but the weight/bulk penalty seems steep for a soloist. Love the hobo stove though
I love all things Trangia! They make a winter pre-heater that works great and I use it year round. I use denatured alcohol from the paint section at any home depot type store. Great looking kit man!
Thanks Craig! I'm now excited about the Trangia after initially not being impressed due to my own ignorance. So simple, cheap fuel with no gas cannisters
@@LostLakes Trangia stoves are great. They never break!
@@bizzo1954 I just wish I would have been more careful when buying my first one. It’s habit forming. “Oh I’ll just buy the 27 and be done with it.”. Next thing ya know I’m like John Balushi looking to score the new mess tin cutting board for my collection.
It's like 2.50 for one of those metal things that goes onto of your trangia. Like 2 metal pieces that sit kinda inside and onto the trangia. I have 2 alcohol burners one titanium and one just like yours and I found those metal things for both of them. Game changer. Great video again as always.
Hey Jed, wonder where you got them...haven't been able to find anything like that online
Congratulations on the 100k subscribers!
Thanks so much Adam!!
Thanks for the Awesomenessssss
My Great Grandmother was Scottish and a tea drinker and she suggested I use a tea cozy for camping , that was 50 + years ago. They work! 😊 Not sure about your stove but I have found a 2 ounce plastic dropper bottle is a big help with some alcohol stoves. Good Luck with your system, you have certainly covered your bases. Travel Well!
Thanks man, that would be handy!
Congrats on 103K!
Thanks so much Bob!
Nice Kit
Thanks for the riveting video 😄 I've been using Trangia spirit burner for a while . I do like to bring 2 of them so I dont have to wait to refill while hot , if needed of course . I use the Trangia triangle though .
😝😝Two burners...what luxury!
@@LostLakes 😇
good video. thanks.
You can’t beat a good old chat about your pots and pans! The one thing that looks a little strange is super space saving mentality in your pots, but then the great big Kelly kettle stick stove. Have you ever thought about using a collapsible stove like the Firebox? Would save quite a bit of bulk in canoe trips.
Hahah I hear ya...I'm really not much of a gram counter or bulk shaver but with the pots it was too easy of a savings not to take it. I've heard great things about the firebox but I really love the style of this kelly kettle hobo stove because it's like a mini fire pit
Great idea using the stick burner with the trangia inside. I'm gonna steal that idea. I'm also tired of cooking with smoke in my face.
Thanks Royce! It's nice to have the option, especially in wet conditions
Awesome
Looks good and well thought out! Changing over the the use of an alcohol stove in conjunction with a pot cozy was a game changer for me. I use yellow Heet fuel, and find that 1.5 ounces of fuel works for most of my meals (with a 'cat stove') - 5 minutes to bring to a bring the water to a boil, and then 2-3 minutes of boiling the meal before the fuel is consumed. This is for completely dehydrated meals that produce 1.75 -2.5 cups reconstituted meals. I have better luck using old fashioned aluminum pots because they hold the heat better than titanium and the meals stay much hotter in the cozy.
Glad to hear it was such an impactful upgrade...I think the cozy will be staple for me moving forward :)
Watch out for Heet fumes, rumor is the Heet has some bad stuff in the smoke. I've been using the cheapest grain alcohol you can get at the liquor store. Supposed to burn the cleanest, and you can drink it if your truly desperate.
ADK.hillyman I find the red heet makes way more soot and also creates a lot of weird sticky stuff in the bottom of my trangia? Does anyone know what it is about the red heet that does that? Take care all.
Ive used the GSI pinnacle pan for the last 4 years over an open fire and not had a problem best fry pan ever
It's a great pan but Teflon and high heat raises serious health concerns... just learned this after watching Dark Waters on Netflix
@@LostLakes I’m sure I read on GSI webpage that they had taken the high heat into account and done something different, it’s not the standard Teflon
Congrats on your 100k subscribers! It’s well earned :)
Thanks a lot cg83!
@@LostLakes I am looking forward to seeing what you have in store for this year. I got hired in a Northern Ontario Provincial Park for the summer so I am super pumped for that. Next stop in 2023 is hopefully Woodland Caribou :)
Thanks😎
Great choice of gear John. Very informative. The only thing I would mention is to bite the bullet and buy a proper alcohol dispenser msr makes a good one. I’ve seen personally guys get seriously burned by dispensing out of a large opening on a white gas container because the trangia wasn’t completely out Be very careful.
Thanks Clifford! Too bad I couldn't find their dispenser before I bought this one but I might have another one on the way :)
Riveting video 😂
Looks like you have figured out the outdoor cooking that works for you and the optimal way to do it. I’m also mindful of the smoke generated by burning wood and the lesser footprint when using gas or alcohol burners. Good info Jon🙏👋
😝😝 Thanks THP!
Almost 100k Jon!!!!!!
🤠🤠
Hey Jon, been watching a ton of your videos and you have inspired this car camper to get out and try some canoe camping. Had a few questions…
-Do you hang your cooking gear at night due to any residual scents that may be on them?
-I think you use the MEC slogg canoe pack. How many separate dry bags do you have within, and what do they contain?
-any thoughts on hanging food/scented items in a dry bag as opposed to a bucket?
-Do you treat your clothes to prevent ticks? Do you take any other tick precaution’s
If you ever want to do an “experienced canoe camper vs a newbie” video, I know a guy who could be the newbie 😆
Thanks and take care
Right on :)
-I don't here, in northern ON because bears are wild and rarely habituated, and hanging limbs are very hard to find in the boreal forest, but in a busier park one should
-Yep I use and love the slogg HD. Just a couple dry bags within, one for clothing and one for some electronics and my book, and non-dry bags for various other things (I did a full breakdown of my kit in spring 2021 which may help)
-Also a good idea depending where you are
-I don't use any bug chemicals (permethrin, DEET), but I might if I spent a lot of time around ticks with the Lyme risk. For mosquitoes and black flies I just cover my skin with long sleeves and pants all season
-Hahah thanks newbie :)
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the video. Consider hard anodized aluminum as an alternative to teflon. It has some nonstick properties though nowhere near as slippery as teflon. I had a teflon pan start flaking off in the food and won't use them anymore.
Thanks for this :) I had anodized aluminum previous but was worried about the aluminum leeching into acidic foods...seems there's a risk to everything but SS or cast iron
Hey John,
I had the same concerns regarding the coating frying pans so I went with the Firebox Stove fry pan and there's no going back now. It's a hardened anodized aluminum and it's seasons the same way as cast iron. You should check those out for sure. Very intuitive engineering gone into all of his products. 🤙🏻
Really appreciate this! Looks like great stuff, though one reason I've steered away from aluminum is for the leeching effect with acidic foods and the potential link with Alzheimer's....not sure how much substance there is to that but I hear a lot about it
I was just looking through your videos the other night trying to find a video where you reviewed your gear hah sweet
Right on :)
@@LostLakes thanks man also just a little tip aswell processed meat is in the same category as plutonium and tobacco on the world health organizations website I know you catch alot of your food but just a tip also if you didn't already know 🙂
My Self I would bring a bio light camp stove 2 its cuts down the camp fire smoke Canadian Tire has a lot of camp gear too as dose MEC we have both here in Toronto ON
just subbed, not sure why i saw some hate comments from previous camping videos. whatever, they will never be as cool as you man
Much appreciated CAC!
Just noticed you are now 100K, while looking at a couple of your first videos!!!
🤠🤠
Have you ever used complete trangia stove system? The burner and base with wind screen are impressive + kettle for boiling water. Pots and pans you want to use really don’t matter. I’ve messed with many spirit burner’s and haven’t found a better mouse trap, but I’ve had lots of fun trying.
It's a really well designed set but my other pots and stick stove preceded the trangia burner and I wanted to make it work with my existing set
The Trangia fuel bottles used to be available in Canada but they disappeared from stores a few years ago. I contacted the Canadian distributor and was told that this is because the safety valve does not meet Health Canada regulations. Strange, but true. Those Trangia bottles are pretty secure and well-designed. They certainly seem more robust than the methyl hydrate containers found in hardware stores to this day, which have no safety valve whatsoever.
100%! What nonsense
100K let's gooooo!
😘😘
About the non-stick coating, it depends what it is made of. Teflon for sure becomes unstable and toxic above certain temperature. I guess it could be also the case for other synthethic coatings.
We just watched Dark Waters about this last night....yikes....
Thanks for the cooking ideas. I am considering ceramic coated pans for a non stick non toxic solution. MSR has a couple. Not to sure on durability though so I haven't bought one yet. I'll be getting that book though. Thanks!
Thanks Flackee :) That's a great thought...some other commenters are really scaring me away from the teflon coating
Riveting indeed LOL but essential we know you like your food Jon, good ideas for the cozies and a nalgene wrapped with that stuff will make a good hot water bottle for winter trips
Hahah thanks Paul...guess I'm a few months late for the nalgene cozies but winter will be back in the blink of an eye 😅
Trangia...the sound of nature, not gas jets! I use the #25 Trangia with a cozy that holds it all. Sometimes I think I'll take a mini-stove it ends up the same size as the Trangia, after I gather up pots & pans, and other utensils. Best fuel is liquid de-natured alcohol like blue fondue fuel. No soot and minimal CO. Methyl Hydrate can be absorbed thru skin and burns too aggressively. I miss your old one pot/one pan kit!
Great points SSD! The only fondue fuel in town is gelled unfortunately (and much more expensive than the methyl hydrate), but I would prefer it if I could find it for a decent price, especially for the skin absorption issue. Where do you get it?
The coatings can contain PFAS, which is a rising contaminant in the environmental consulting world. There are a lot of things that contain them and non-stick coatings are one of the big ones. You can buy pots with non-PFAS containing coatings, or just go non-coated. But would be worth it to switch, especially if you start seeing scratches in the non-stick coating of the pan.
Really appreciate this info Patrick. Very glad to know what to look for next time.
Good point on the wood smoke. I was just reading that they have found wood smoke to be extremely bad for health and I believe it said it was one of the worst carcinogenic airborne substances (don’t quote me on that part…). Happy trekking!
I know a lot of cities are banning wood heat because of how much it contributes to pollution
i put a light film of dish soap (campsuds...biodegradable soap) on the base and sides of my pot, then after cooking over the fire I wipe the soot off with a cloth, paper towel or tin foil..comes clean and no black soot to soil my pack.
I think you need a combination of short camping videos and your long videos. Your long videos are amazing and I love them. But to acquire new subscribers, I think they'll only watch a long video once they come to like you as a person (which is very easy). I believe this is how Xander scaled so quick. You're undoubly 100% more world class than him, and in my opinion Robinet as well. Idk, that's my two cents from a dude whose never made a RUclips video
Pathfinder do a nice alcohol stove with a pot holder/ wind shield. It nests inside the pathfinder cup.
They make nice stuff
Nice little kit. Compact is key. Have you ever seen a tin can stove? There are many sizes you can make it, it's very easy. VERY light weight, takes up very little space and not much smoke if any all. I made one with a a but taller can to slide over the one with hole in the top so you can rest a pot or kettle on it. Last forever, I've had the same one for years, it always lights for me. I had one that was an old coffee can size, can cook on a pan with it. Cheap, affective, long lasting, light weight. Love the videos guys, your getting good views as of late. Good job. I hope it pays well for yas. Sorry for writing the story. Just an idea. ;)
Thanks a lot MLO! Those tin can stoves can be great but I really like the Kelly Kettle hobo stove for essentially being a mini fire pit and it's so much less fussy than my old taller stick stove :)
@@LostLakesno doubt. Preference. I like that set up you have, it's all in one.
I like your cook set review particularly the DIY cozy. I'll have to try it out since in colder weather re-hydrating wastes a lot a fuel and can over cook some foods if you use the flame to much. Take care of your health! A wigwam tour guide at Crawford Lake CA told us that indigenous women usually went smoke blind from tending fires all winter in the poorly ventilated wigwam by the age of 30. That stuff is nasty.
Much appreciated! That is really interesting and sad about the smoke blindness...yikes
Good shout on the cozies. After all the fire bans last year, I’ve reluctantly given up on relying on any kind of cooking system that doesn’t have a shut-off valve, but I guess they weren’t as lengthy on your side of Superior.
Oh wow I guess that's true that the Trangia wouldn't be ok based on that rule...did not think of that
@@LostLakes Yep … the actual danger from an alcohol stove is probably non-existent so long as you don’t knock it over while cooking, but they’re still illegal under fire ban conditions in Ontario. I’ve gone with white gas/naphtha so that I’m at least not using disposable propane cans - I hate them as much as you do. It’s noisy, but it does the job. Here’s hoping for regular rain in the NW this summer so that we aren’t so restricted in our options this year!
I think it’s almost time for a new one 🤔👍🏻
😜
Just last night I was making reflectix envelope coozies for dehydrated meals to stay warm in. I made one for each of my buddies.
How nice! That's a great idea for the meal packs too...I would make one if I used them more (though I could also just dump it into my pot with cozy)
@@LostLakes a dehydrator is on the list to maybe purchase this year... I'm out about 30 nights a year, interested to give making my own stuff a try. I'm taking garlic toast this weekend, thanks for the inspiration!
@@brianadventures9622 right on! Highly recommend Kevin's book. There's a nice 9-tray Excalibur dehydrator on sale on Amazon right now
MSR makes an awesome “valve” which can screw into your alcohol bottle which makes filling the Trangia a joy. Also, ditch the Kelly base and just use the top piece of the hobo stove with the Trangia.
That would be awesome...can't seem to find such a thing only. I found that the top makes the pot too far away but the other advantage is nesting both maximizes wind blockage
@@LostLakes sorry, checked my bottle with the valve, it is a Trangia brand bottle and valve. I am recommending ONLY using the top part of the pot stand from the Kelley hobo stove with the Trangia alcohol burner underneath it.
Nice content...but I find myself missing Mrs. Potts. 😀 Kevin's cookbook is a wealth of information, as are his dehydrating videos. Looking forward to following your trips!
😝😝 Very much so, can't wait to eat some of his recipes I've dehydrated in recent weeks! Thanks April!
