7 Essential Wood Stove Camping Tips for Beginners

[@mikeoset3193]

I am a volunteer firefighter for over 45 years. You explained a very important information. Keep up the good work.

[@bobbiolah2320]

Hi Brian: I've been wanting to send this info for awhile ..I have been viewing Lee of the Asher House for awhile. Recently Lee has a beautiful, loving article heading that says "I can't believe it's been a year since Lillie has crossed over."Lee is sharing his loving, heartfelt, thoughtful mindset that I feel you will relate to..

[@margiesheets6581]

Great teaching video! You are a very effective teacher Brian! Thanks!

[@the_wandering_brute]

I know I already commented, but awesome super informative video!!! Best tent stove video I’ve seen!

[@ItsMeNanaD71]

Hey THANKS! I feel foolish I couldn’t think of the word “creosote” in my request 😂 Anyway, I truly appreciate this video! I need some of that cleaner to unstick my stovepipe. Great tips & advice. Thanks again so much for this video. I haven’t been getting notifications for a long time, then I saw your post I commented on & got this notification. So hopefully YT will continue sending them. Happy New Year 🎉❤

[@raymondpacheco8168]

Please do a video on your to use your stove the most efficient way. All your little tips. Your adventures have truly inspired me to live my winter adventures. I bought the for dog stove and have had issues with getting better burns times. Thank you.

[@vlif479]

Great tips & info! Looking forward to more winter camping videos.

[@viviangill1806]

My daughter was proud of me when I told her we would survive in the wild because I already know of this danger from watching you.

[@sheilacaine]

I checked all my connections for your channel so we’re good. 👍 BRRRRR 😂

[@deadwolfresistance13]

That's the way it is done 👍💯

[@shannmartin7453]

Hey Brian, Just double checked I was still subscribed and I clicked the bell as well, love your video's and your collaboration with Larry from Work Less Enjoy Life More, keep'm coming brother and a prosperous 2025

[@viviangill1806]

Okay Brian. This was a notification. I usually get notified. Will keep an eye out. I take lunch at 1pm.

[@the_wandering_brute]

Let’s do it!!!! Notifications on! 300k you got this!!

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Ready to crush it in 2025, no excuses! I'll be putting out content constantly. Look forward to spring in our "hood", the scenery is awesome and all the spring fed creeks no one knows about are running at full bore. We'll hit those areas up come the middle part of March!

[@CherieBlairWitch]

Very educational.😊🐕🔥🔥🔥

[@Mainstayjay]

Thanks for the tips! I went hot tent camping for a few days just before Christmas, and I definitely ran into the ash insulation issue. I figured that out while I was out there which was good, but when leaving, I broke down my stove pipe and there was a frightening buildup of gummy creosote. I looked at the pipe before I went out and it didn't need cleaning, but I didn't look at it again until I was leaving. That was a mistake I won't be making again! I'm pretty sure that I wasn't far away from having a stove pipe fire. I haven't used any creosote remover yet, but I'm going to buy the stuff you use. I'm very glad that I'm learning these things before something bad happens! These videos you are doing could save someones life, so thanks for making them!

If you have a tractor supply or farming supply store, often they sell both soft wood "presto logs" and hardwood type presto logs. ive found after establishing a good bed of coals, throwing in a couple logs every3 to 5 hours keeps the tent warm, and it produces less ash than traditional " fire wood."

[@Mainstayjay]

@stevenwood7131 I do have one nearby, I'll give those a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@JustLou71]

WooHoo another reason to get another machete! Thanks for this Bryan, I learned more than I thought I would. And more than I thought I already knew. Happy 2025 to you and Meadow!

[@chrisheinenoutdoors8880]

This is awesome! I literally just bought a wall tent for hunting on my property with a wood stove. Great video!

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Hi Chris, enjoy that wall tent! I can't think of a better time than cooking food over a wood stove in a comfy 4 season tent. Cheers to the good life!

[@chrisheinenoutdoors8880]

@ trust me, I can’t wait for turkey season in April to just relax in that thing and enjoy the hunt! Keep the videos coming. I enjoy them so much.

[@garagejim1956]

Well done!!! Safety and service may to some be redundant, a good review or new information. Thanks for all three.

[@najruqwi7008]

🎊🥂Happy New Years 🥂 🎊. 🙏 May GOD bless and protect you Meadow and your family through out the New Year 🙏

[@kirkoglesby6175]

Happy New Year Brian. Give the pup some scratches for me.

[@madeleinerenteria2870]

Hey Brian, I usually get the notifications for your videos 😊 And I look forward to watching them.

[@fletchdad8755]

The creosote build up at the top is 3rd degree creosote , it builds up on the colder sections of flues when it reaches its dewpoint.

[@Amarikita]

Always enjoy your videos ! May I suggest you include a Celsius temperature equivalent when you mention weather temperature. The rest of the world doesn't use Fahrenheit, lol. Thanks !

[@terry_679]

Very important info, Brian. I didn't know you could buy creosote remover. The mountains are majestic! Happy New Year to you and Meadow.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Happy New Year to you too!

[@lindafisher6171]

Happy New Year Brain, May this year be filled with camping Joy !!

[@timsheridan3987]

Happy New year good safety video use a wood burner for heat and you always have to stay on top of creosote buildup btw a tip a fireman once gave me keep a couple d cell batteries handy apparently if you have a flue fire throw them in the wood box and close it up never had to try it but you never know

[@scottscott495]

👍

[@SEA-U2]

Fantastic Information 😊

[@najruqwi7008]

Great how to video 👍. How often do you clean the ashes out of the stove? And how often do you clean the pipe?

[@eddywillemijns3397]

Awesome Brian. Happy New Year. Greetings from Belgium 😃🤗

[@pcarr8618]

Dang - stepping it up!

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Gonna crush it in 2025!

[@radioactivebanana6774]

Thanks for that info!

[@MatthewSmith-u4j]

Hey Brian, when you are winter camping, how do you do your laundry, take showers and use the washroom? 💩haha I wasn’t sure if you made a video on these topics already

[@andyevans9118]

👍👍🏝

[@alinatamashevich3354]

New sub! Glad to be here.

[@Buickman95]

Let's go!!! Here we come 300k

[@williammeek7218]

Here ya are all a sudden, popping up with a new post.

[@AHumanBeingbeing]

Happy New Year Brian! How often do you clean your stove pipe in the winter when you are running it 24/7?

[@stevenwood7131]

im sub'd and all notifications on. been waiting for this kind of instructional video. heart of hearts...do the fans really move warm air around? if so, any recommendations on brands?

[@bobbiolah2320]

Oh, you can see and hear Lee on his site , the Asher House on Dec 27, 2024.

[@ChristopherSeaDawg]

You don’t use a cap on the top of your stove pipe. I use one to keep rain & snow out. Just curious.

[@gsp49]

The biggest mistake I see others making with their wood stoves, is no damper in the stove pipe above the stove, that thing will pull like a vacuum cleaner and waste all your firewood without it. At 9:17 I see you have one.

[@Mike-du4tq]

Not all stove pipes are tappered, none of mine are & most folks I know who have had them quit them & gone to straight pipe.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

That's cool man, I must hang with a different crowd because all of us that full-time winter camp in the mountains seem to use tapered since they pack up with a much smaller footprint. Might be because my crew is the mid-size truck crowd - space is limited!

[@SEA-U2]

Happy New Year to You & Meadow 🎉Only The Best For 2025 to you😊 Sub Up Everyone

[@georgedavidson7986]

Can you get an insulated pipe Yes you can

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Why would I do that when my current stovepipe works just fine??

[@georgedavidson7986]

Fire You do not want a fire in your pipe when you are sleeping

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

That will only take place if you don’t clean your stovepipe. It can happen to insulated stovepipes too.

[@CupRamen-j8o]

Try me.

[@CupRamen-j8o]

I'm delicious.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Haha, I was puzzled by the comment until I saw your handle. :)

[@Mark-x8s6u]

I became unsubscribed. Had to go back in and resubscribe

[@sCotto359]

[@Austinchannel-j6b]

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

What sort of question is this, do you think I’m lying?

[@kirkoglesby6175]

Happens more often to Brian than you would think. Not sure how many years I've been watching his channel. I can tell you I've been unsubscribed and had to subscribe again 3 times. Had notifications turned off at least twice.
