Great to see you. I live hot tenting. What beautiful scene. That stove design is cool and it came out after I bought mine so I may get one of those in the future. Hope to see you again. 😊
Hey Johan, great video, I have the Finnmark for 4yrs now, also helsport stove, hopefully this year we get good snow and I can really test it wild camping, really like your compact stove mines is way fookin heavy man.👍🏻🥃🏴
Great video. One tip for winter camping, use a pulk or toboggan to pull your gear over the snow. It makes your life easier and allows you to haul a little more gear. For firewood, I usually bring some dry construction grade wood from home to get my first fire going. This allows me to process firewood that is damp and then dry it out on the stove surface to keep the fire going. How are you like that Helsport Pasvik Lavvu? I take it you have the 4-6 model.
Thanks bwillan! Yes, would be great to try a pulk sometime, I do see how it would enable me to carry more stuff. However, on the hikes I've done so far, they usually include some sections of pretty steep climbing where I think a pulk would be a little difficult to operate. I tend to want to climb a bit, looking for a camp site with a view... Bringing some dry wood would definitely be a good idea to get some embers going and make the rest easier. But the wood I found this time was so wet that it was difficult to have the fire going even after I got some good embers. Have been studying a bit now on how to find dry(er) firewood, so hope to do better next time! I choose the Helsport much because I already had another Helsport tent that has served me very well through the years, so was expecting good quality again, which seems to be right so far. It is also light enough to carry (5 kg). One thing I would however have liked is a dedicated hole for the stove pipe on the side of the tent. That would have enabled a tighter fit, a shorter stove pipe and to place the stove closer to a wall instead of center placement, allowing everyone in the tent to watch the fire and creating more usable space.
Hi there I really like your videos it's just awesome. Could you tell me where you baught your stove please? And does it come standard with the tent/pipe protector? Thx in advance and enjoy the rest of the winter...
How do you remove the ashes from the stove if you need to keep the fire going? When you phone and headlamp went dead you needed the Biolite stove and a solar portable panels or a bigger back up portable battery charger.
Hi Cess, I don't plan to keep it going overnight so this will not be an issue for me. Yes, interesting function on the Biolite, but it does not come with a chimney. Would be good to have it on a stove for heating.
Do you find it difficult or worrisome that that damper part of the stove pipe is permanently affixed to the top piece of the stove, sticking up? That seems like it would be bent/wrinkled/damaged very easily when trekking with lots of gear. Do you have to be super careful of that part and make sure nothing ever lays on top of it while travelling? Is there any way to disattach it and put it back on when assembling?
Yes that did bother me a bit. The whole thing is of course fragile, being so incredibly lightweight. I put the bag with the stove on top of my backpack, so far so good...
I have a new Winnerwell stove like yours sitting here in the floor but I do not have the piece you are using to shield the flue where it passes thru the tent. Can you tell me how to order one? TKS !
It was available in the webshop where I bought the stove. But I just saw @timtelemark mentioning simpler solutions in another comment here, check it out!

Thanks! Did you get out this winter?

You think you got enough onions? Lol. Nice video sir.
You might have mistaken the red cabbage salad for onions! :)

Hi Bwillan! Now I have tried a pulk, and I brought some dry wood! Have a look at my latest video! :)
Nice job all around👍

I bought it at a Swedish webshop, don't remember if what was standard and options! packraft-sverige.se/produkt/winnerwell-fastfold-titanium-stove/
Doesn't it rain in the top when it rains heavily, because of the stove pipe
Yeah, that might be a problem, I am however only out with this setup in the winter
good reception thank you. where did you buy heat protection for pipes?

çekimlerin çok kötü ve karanlık izlemişsindir umarım.
Yeah, starting at low level, will try to improve!
