Riding out a winter storm in the cargo trailer PART 1

In this episode we hunker down to enjoy a winter storm.

[@lanarkwanderer]

Great to see you again. Another adventure. Appreciate the cooking tips. Excellent video. Maggie looks like she is enjoying the good life. Safe travels 🇨🇦

[@waysoutback]

Nice to hear from you again. Yes we are happy to get back out there. Looking forward to lots of camping excursions this year. Cooking seems to be a big part of camping….we love it. Maggie is definitely living her best life.

[@stephenwinter8892]

I have a handy tip for starting a fire get a left over paper towel holder fold one end tape it then fill the other end with lint from the dryer as much as possible tape up the other end and keep in your vehicle and use as a starter do the same with toilet paper rolls greetings from southern Ontario Canada

[@waysoutback]

A few have mentioned this. I will definitely try it. Thank you!

[@christiangraham506]

Your puppy is absolutely adorable!

[@waysoutback]

100% agree. Sweetest personality too.

[@kathleenhudson8429]

If you like to recycle, you can save toilet paper rolls and lint from the clothes dryer. Stuff the cardboard rolls with the lint and tape the ends. Works great. An even better one is to fill a small mold with sawdust and pour in melted wax. When it sets, just pop it out and pack it for camp.

[@waysoutback]

Those are great suggestions! Thank you.

[@peterbernier9624]

Best winter camping video ever. Thanks

[@waysoutback]

Thank you very much. So glad you enjoyed it.

BBQ ribs in a snow storm in the wilderness 😮 Wow, living the life!

[@waysoutback]

Ya it’s not bad that’s for sure!

[@terrilandry1313]

New subscriber here! I enjoyed your video!! Just a F.Y.I. !!! I’m not sure if your granola had almonds in it or not! Almonds are also bad for dogs!! If you have a way of restraining your puppy in the vehicle, I would!! If you get into a car accident, rear ended or head on, she’ll do flying!! Ni would hate for your dog to be injured. We don’t let babies or children ride un-restrained. I used to be guilty of letting my dog ride on my lap! I thought about what would happen if I was in an accident. I bought a harness that came with a clip that you fasten into the seat belt. I got it from Amazon. It works well!! I put a blanked down on the back seat, clip my dogs harness and seatbelt together, and she’s content!! ❤❤❤ blessings to you!!

[@waysoutback]

So happy to have you as as a subscriber. Thanks so much, we are trying to improve the quality of our content. Thanks for your suggestions! You clearly are an animal lover as we are too. Spoiled pups are the best.

@@waysoutback the quality of your video was fine!! No complaints from me!!!

[@cyndirankin]

That sign brings back memories. One of those was posted on the road to my grandparents farm.

[@waysoutback]

Awww I bet they lived in a great spot!

[@ByrdmanAero]

Your dog is adorable

[@waysoutback]

I agree wholeheartedly

[@davidgentz1731]

Nice job on that cargo trailer that's nice on the kitchen looks nice and it looks just like home

[@waysoutback]

Thank you. We really love it.

[@tk931340]

You guys sure know how to have a good time. Your always making me hungry. Love the Video.

[@waysoutback]

Yes for us it’s easy to have a good time in the bush surrounded by nature. Food of course helps! Thanks so much for the comment. Appreciate the encouragement 🙂

[@adventurefuel5172]

I’ve been wanting to do a winter camp so bad this year, but circumstances haven’t allowed. Looks like a great time.

[@waysoutback]

Aww that’s too bad! I Know how that feels! We were so looking forward to it, my truck rebuild held us up but now we are back in business. Hope u get out there soon.

[@LockedenLoad]

Just a suggestion: You may wish to explain to people why you like the snow. Why you enjoy the serene quietness of powdered snow.

[@waysoutback]

Funny you mention that! You will be interested in the video that is being released tomorrow at 2:pm 🙂

[@brianbenedict8374]

The vids are the best enough wood,food and great company!!!

[@waysoutback]

Glad you like them! Yes you got the three important things to make a great get away.

[@pre10801]

Well done.

[@waysoutback]

Thank you so much.

[@johnhighstreet5199]

Omg, the nerdiest thing I have ever seen, like, seriously. But, you opened the Scotch and now I'm subscribing. What a hoot!

[@goddukee]

Ya need to locate some "fat lighter". Easy to find i the woods and keeps for ever. Great to see ya using the trailer. Mine is still a work in progress. Enjoy !

[@waysoutback]

I actually had to look that one up. I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for it to start my fires. We r enjoying the trailer so much. Hope you get to use yours for adventures soon.

[@goddukee]

Easy to find. Look for dead pine. Standing stumps or fallen and rotted. The fatwood is in the center. You'll know when ya hit the part that's hard as a rock and smells like turpentine. @@waysoutback

[@waysoutback]

Thank you so much for the tips. I’ll definitely do that. Very helpful. I’ll definitely include it in a video when I find and use it.

[@jeffs7573]

NEVER leave home without your chainsaw, next best thing to a winch.

[@waysoutback]

100%. I bought a winch after a very expensive lesson learnt involving an off road tow truck…..

[@TheYoliehernandez]

Thanks so much for your video. Enjoyed it very much. Hey what kind of doggie do u have. Looks so much like my Poopooie. Still trying to figure out what she is, besides a cutie like yours ❤.

[@waysoutback]

Glad you enjoyed it. Maggie is a shih poo. Super smart, sweet and adorable.

[@jennifermorris7195]

Love your little camper, looks like a fabulous trip! I have a grizzly stove in a tiny cabin, best thing ever! I just got some of those sawdust bricks, I haven’t figured out how to cut them down to a better size. Usually the compressed logs you can just bang and they break in half. I noticed you have the sawdust bricks cut down; what’s the easiest way you found to do that? Looking forward to more adventures from you!

[@waysoutback]

These little stoves are incredible! That’s great you have a cabin. Where about r you located? The compressed wood blocks we have come that size. We bought them in the states at tsc. They just fit the cubic mini so the grizzly would have no problem. Hope that helps.

[@edwardcarberry1095]

How much more does your rear axle weigh then your front axle?? Don't think you have enough weight in the box!! As well to have tied /restrained your two fuel containers as well.

[@waysoutback]

My front axle weighs more than my back.

[@edwardcarberry1095]

@@waysoutback As I do not know what the real number should be but I have always said that your rear axle should be 10+% more then the front. No weight in the box is a lot less traction and the front and rear ends exchanging places as one goes down the road where one does not want to go!!

[@waysoutback]

I appreciate your concern, especially because it’s safety. There is a lot of weight in the box. The tongue weight of the trailer is 400 pounds plus 2-300 pounds of gear in the box. That is why I have air bag helper springs in the back. We have done two trips across the states, through icy mountain passes with numerous vehicles and trucks including semi’s in the ditch and had no issue. I want to assure you I know Fords very well having been a ford truck mechanic for years, Ford actually has additional training for their mechanics in addition to the 4 year apprenticeship program necessary to become a mechanic here in Canada.

[@patriciastyles1761]

Use wet paper towel and ash it will clean the glass of wood burner in 2 seconds. Just paper dry.

[@waysoutback]

Great tip I will absolutely try that! Thank you

[@jasperrocks183]

I also have a homemade cargo trailer, but where do you keep your spare tire on the cargo trailer?

[@waysoutback]

That’s awesome. What size is your trailer? Currently I keep a spare in the truck, the plan is to build a Brackett on the back of the trailer, I’ll be doing a video on that. Where do you store yours?

[@stephenwinter8892]

Where are you filming from greetings from southern Ontario Canada we had a mild winter until now first day of spring and all this week snow and cold temperatures at night

[@waysoutback]

Hello! This was filmed north of Huntsville.

[@Mini-Me]

Thank you for letting us tag along ❤

[@waysoutback]

Thank you glad you are joining us!

[@kennethvalerio1294]

New to your channel looks awesome, I would have put a tarp up to keep the snow off you while you’re sitting out there great video though 👍

[@waysoutback]

Thank you glad to have you along. Yes a tarp would have made things better for sure.

[@troygirard8458]

What tires are you running on the ranger

[@waysoutback]

Kenda Klever RT 35x10.5r17

[@gabrielklassen9043]

I found out that dryer lint is a extremely flammable product that gets fires going

[@waysoutback]

Yes, this is the second time someone mentioned it. Thank you. I will definitely try it.

[@TravisLambert]

Paper towels and vegetable oil is a great fire starter

[@waysoutback]

Hey that’s a great idea! Thanks.

[@sprigssprouts6786]

Nice

[@paulpowell4871]

Finally Scotch not beer by the fire!!!

[@waysoutback]

The things I do for my subscribers….

[@RandyHunt19]

The compressed logs you use where do you get them? What model of stove is yours? Cubic mini size?

[@waysoutback]

Ya you got it, it’s the cubic mini. Absolutely love it. We buy the “bioblocks” from TSC. Hope that helps. So you have a cubic mini as well?

[@RandyHunt19]

@@waysoutback what is TSC?

[@waysoutback]

It’s a store. Tractor supply company.

[@jerseyjim8365]

Buddy you’ve got yourself a great woman there!

You got that right!

[@exkalibur25ca]

Looks very Dorset/Algonquin Highlands.

[@waysoutback]

Are you local to that area? So many great spots to camp.

[@exkalibur25ca]

@@waysoutback GTA but get up there as often as I can! Some great spots up there indeed.

[@waysoutback]

That’s great! from Toronto not too big of a drive wish we lived closer…..takes us 4-5 hours. Michigan has some great places a similar distance away. Are you tenting or do you use a camper?

[@exkalibur25ca]

@@waysoutback Picked up a Gazelle hub tent. Love it! Though I want a camper at some point.

[@Jerremy10169]

What area of Ontario is this ?

[@waysoutback]

North of Huntsville.

[@joselito7776]

You can just cut up any trees that you see, fallen or not?

[@waysoutback]

You can cut downed trees or standing dead trees for camp fire use.

[@youdontwanttoknow5203]

Link to firestarter that you used?

[@waysoutback]

Unfortunately we couldn’t find the exact one we bought online. Sorry about that!

[@recentlyretired]

A diesel heater would be better suited for that trailer, couple hundred dollars and 3 gallons of diesel will last a weekend

[@waysoutback]

Yes absolutely agree we have a diesel heater. Quick convenient heat, wouldn’t be without. Our woodstove isn’t necessary but it’s our luxury item. We have a tour video of the entire trailer you can watch here kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHiUXoCBj8Z2asUsi=hiLUH_pw_4VN7Qm7

@rosemariebrown6782 we sure think so💜

[@danpayan9468]

I eat Greek yogurt and granola all the time mmmm

[@waysoutback]

Absolutely!

[@boulevardmonsterdame]

Nice equipment you look like people from the city lost in the country, eating granola and not steaks which would be more appropriate. You are very dandy.

[@waysoutback]

Thank you! I agree our equipment is great. If u would like to see how we built the trailer we have a series on our channel. For information on the truck we have a separate channel rangershop. You are correct we are from the city, but we are not lost. We were eating granola not steak. Didn’t know granola was a city thing. Lol. We basically eat what we feel like eating without much concern for what’s “appropriate”.

[@bertkelly7650]

Grease your rusty ball!

[@waysoutback]

Ya, i used to but then found I’d get grease all over the place, so I stopped. I’ll just deal with the squeaks….

[@jeffs7573]

Hmmmm……..one could take that comment several ways 😁

[@steveng54]

Good video but audio level is all over the map. I missed a lot of dialogue.

[@waysoutback]

Sorry for that, I’m definitely working on improving audio. Part of the problem is the mic I used was not great in snow….ordered a new one. Hopefully future videos I’ll do better. Appreciate the input.

[@dianenaylor2104]

Please restrain Maggie when driving. She could become a projectile in an accident. 😮

[@waysoutback]

Very good suggestion💜
