    Frittata in a small dutch oven can be breakfast and lunch as another breakfast idea.

      Thanks Carla! Sierra is having so much fun at this dispersed campsite. It's pretty wide open except for the trees around my truck so I can easily keep an eye on her as she spends her time exploring the fields. She's such a fun companion! Hope you had a great day Carla, thanks for watching.

    Hey there Brian. I was listening to Derek and the Dominoes live at Santa Monica 11/70 when the announcement of your latest vlog came across. I hesitated for a minute and then I thought, I can listen to this later. I was rewarded with one of your best shows. I love that natural bluing that your new stove has taken on. Sierra is a sweetie as always. The jazz you were listening to made a more uplifting replacement to the blues of Clapton. I might go back and watch it again. Oh, good foresight using those Pinions as a windbreak. Take care my friend. Vaughn

    I like the set up. But the downside is, if you have to go into town for supplies you have to pack up camp. I put tarps off the back of my 1988 4Runner with tent poles. I tie them up to the back of my truck to make a living area. And same thing for me though, I have to pack up to leave. I guess if I bought two more tent poles I could drive off for supplies and leave my tarp shelter there. Then come home and back up into my shelter again. I've considered getting a light weight off road motorcycle and put it on a rack on the back so I can leave my 4Runner parked at camp. And go get supplies and also explore.

    @glossyfpv1155 4 роки тому

    Not sure if anyone has mentioned it but watch out in high winds with the stove pipe blowing into the tent. You have multiple hangers and bungee holding it in one direction. I'd at least tie one down to the ground on the opposite side. Great setup though 👍

  • @jimf1964
    @jimf1964 4 роки тому +8

    I thought those tents would open to the truck, so you could make a bed in the truck, and use the tent as a day room. That a little disappointing.
    Very cool place to camp though. So totally alien to eastern Canada.

  • @mademoisellekaya1438

    I believe that Silky does do work with ytbers, I've seen some that did recently.. but they are good, I give them that 👌
    But I have watched a few weeks back and needed to think and adjust to this way, for a moment I was confused about the setup, lol!
    One blink and it all changed 😁

    @utahwanderlust700 4 роки тому

    I do a lot of truck camping, and I have a full size truck that sometimes doesn't give me enough room for all my gear. I can't imagine how you deal with a half truck. Ever wish you'd gone with a Tundra instead? Or maybe a domestic truck with an 8 foot bed?

  • @SeanLawn71
    @SeanLawn71 4 роки тому

    Holy cow man!! That saw!! I own a landscape maintenance company and I cut a lot of limbs. I’ll check if you posted a link for this saw. Selky Sulky? Haha. Silky. In the title. My bad.

  • @williambays3534
    @williambays3534 4 роки тому +1

    Do you carry a large tarp in the truck? The tent walls look so thin, I don't see how they hold the heat in, when strong winds, or deep cold hits. A thick tarp would trap more heat inside. ( That or line the inside walls with bubble wrap LOL)

  • @bdawg7213

    So Dad gets the floor, Sierra gets the bed. I can relate. Question: the extra space you created at the end of the of the truck bed, was that for something specific or just extra needed space? Tents etc?

    • @OffGridBackcountryAdventures
      @OffGridBackcountryAdventures  4 роки тому

      Hey Brandon, I actually tied off some guy lines to the sections around the stove to bump out the side walls a bit and prevent any wind from blowing the walls into a hot stove. So far it's working really good! I love this set up, which I would have done this sooner. Total game changer for truck camping in cold weather.

    • @ModernMtnMan

      @TravelerBrad 4 роки тому

      Thanks, just ordered it from Amazon. I figured the larger one seeing everything you use it for. Have you ever tried the solar panels for charging it?
      Also, if you install a stainless steel grate that has about 1 1/2 inches of clearance and build your fire on that it will draft from underneath and burn better plus the ashes will fall underneath.
      Peace out.
