Ice Camping in -30 degrees w/ a Wood Stove 

i have the same stove it works great but i made my own cap for it. you need a make a shield that covers 50%. Right now the wind is trying to blow down the pipe, so yes it will fill the tent and almost put the fire out. By making a cover for the cap it will pull a vacuum and that stove will cook you out of the tent. Just make sure the cap can spin and face shield into the wind. Would be good tip for a video.

Dan is the coolest friend you have. He's so chill and you two have such a great dynamic.

Mavs videos and OutdoorBoys make ice fishing and camping look so much fun! Learn so much from each of you!

Mav, you need to give the wood stove another chance. Three main ways to stop smoke in tent...keep a burning fire in store to create draft, keep pipe vertical and create a block for the wind on windy nights. Also, the type of wood makes a big difference. Burning bark creates a lot more smoke. Come to Lake Winnipeg and I will host you on the ice.

If wind is blowing north or south then put your chimney east/west and vice versa. If it’s east/west winds then put it north or south and the changing wind is less likely to blow the smoke in

I liked your camping.🏕️ I enjoy camping in Japan, too.🇯🇵 I have not camped on a snowy day.☃️ You have high technique and knowledge.✨ I learned most from you.😊 Your video gave me a hint! I appreciate splendid camping.☺️

Glad to see Dan back on the channel!

I've only just started the video and I'm so happy Dan is back in the video. My all time favourite video that I constantly go back to is when you and Dan go ice fishing and land that giant fish and you guys cook up a mean feed. So I already know this one is going to be a banger. Great stuff as always Mav!

Its the WORST when i see creators keeping as many fish as they can. I appreciate you mav, for your chivalry toward nature. Catch what your gonna eat kinda thing. When you threw that fish back it made me smile with more respect than i already had for ya.

OH MAN, that trout!!!

Love when you come to Canada. It’s a beautiful country. Another great ice camping video

Welcome back to Canada 🍻 from Montreal . I'm watching this over the super bowl

Really enjoy the videos with you and Dan. You guys have a good back-and-forth system. Better luck with your stoves

Just starting watching this but i already know, any video with Dan is gonna have big ass beautiful fish!!! Dan is a helluv an angler 💪💪🤘🤘

Love seeing the winter! ❤ Thanks for sharing Mav!

Epic videos as always, excited todo my trip in CANADA & USA Soon! Can’t express how much your videos have helped me and how awesome it is to see you going on these trips. Keep it up Mav everyone really enjoys the videos you’re coming out with these days

Hey mav, that was a fun adventure but I think you guys did the right thing by calling it and coming home early too cold thanks for sharing. You guys. Be safe out there.♥️🫶🙏👍🎣

Gloves, they make all kinds, waterproof even. Put some on!

I'm always watching throughout my days. Thank you Mav.

Amazing as always thanks Mav!!

Love watching your videos Mav! I look forward to them every week! Reminds me of my younger days camping and fishing with the the family!

Love the videos Mav, always keeping up on your channel, my favorite content creator period, cheers from Delaware.

I don’t normally use wood stoves on the ice for a few different reasons but some tips for woods stoves: 1) burn the driest hardwood you can find. 2) keep the fire hot. 3) keep the pipe vertical and add an adjustable cap (that you can turn depending on wind direction). 4) extra wind breaks are key, if you have a windy day, sometimes it’s hard for the smoke to escape from the stack, you need to be prepared with additional caps/windbreaks.

Too Cold did that several times in Alaska with an Eskimo Guide. He got cold too, went and slept in the Sherp with the heater running then the 60mph Blizzard came but we had back tracking electronics plus or minus 6" and made it back IFR in the Sherp. Never saw anything but white the 10 miles back. It was 40 below screw the wind chill he said no such thing. Glad I had heated clothing.

Just binged like 4 winter vids back to back and enjoyed em all. Personally I would not want to camp with someone recording everything but how else would we get the experience from home lmao. All love

That's a good 'ol time right there! Definitely would've helped having that other elbow for the stack and putting it on the other side just to try and mitigate the smoke-out backflow, definitely a chore though. Thanks for taking us along bud!

My favorite part of the day is refreshing RU-vid and seeing a new video from Mav

I remember when I subscribed to Mav when he only had 28,000 subs and now he’s over 2 million. I feel like a proud uncle 😂

Absolutely would love a meetup with @Outdoor Boys! I feel like you two would get along great on something like this! and my two favs in one place would be amazing!

Mav that was really good thanks you guys are cool and determined always awesome to see you and your friends

Your winter vids hit different ❤

It’s crazy to camp in that crazy cold weather. Hope you guys didn’t end of getting sick. 🐠🎣🐟

i love you dawg. i love the videos found them about a month ago and have been binge watching them since. i love the recipes that you bring to your camps, makes me want to give them a shot. keep up the absolutely amazing content always brings a smile to my dull life. i hope you achieve everything you’re striving for. you’re humble and genuine and that alone speaks volumes. Always a good day when there’s a Mav video❤

I’ve been watching MAV for two years now. Best show on the Internet! There’s no faking it, he is showing us pure and simple how to survive in sometimes the worst scenario.

I run the winnerwell nomad large stove in my hub. 3.5 inch stove pipe. From what I understand the smaller ones have a hard time keeping up. Especially with the smaller pipe. Go for the large and you’ll be cookin all night my man. Best purchase I’ve made when it comes to my heat source.

Mav, I love you and Dann-o together! Solid content! FYI, I run a little buddy in my one-man shack; it will run for about 6-7 hours on a full tank.

Absolutely awesome as always some really nice fish

looks like such an amazing experience! great episode

The ice on your eyelids and mustache was making even me cold great video.

Thanks for a great adventure video with a new wood stove ! ❤

Absolutely love your videos! As a Boy Scout I loved winter camping. We certainly didn’t have the gear that you have now but we survived even in open lean-tos. Now I watch a lot of winter camping videos and I have yet see someone ask the question that everyone is afraid to ask, toilet facilities in that kind of temperature………. Keep on giving us these great videos…… btw, I live on Lake Huron

Awesome video Mav! 🔥

Your living the life mav, wish I could do half the adventures

Hey Mav. Good seeing you! All blessings, much love. Be safe out there. Enjoy!! 🐞🤟🏼😁

really enjoy the videos with dan, cool dude

Wow, that big fish was awesome! 😊

Looks flipping cold out there..better man than I, I wouldn't be out there unless I was in that warm ice hut...as always great video thanks for the entertainment and adventure

Mav you’re always been good fisherman and awesome cook 😊

hey mav, going through something very traumatic rn and you and your vids have been helping so much. thank you

🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I’ve watch all the vids so happy for a new one 😂

Glad I found your channel, you're awesome and bro, love to watch these!

love to see mav and outdoorboys in one camping vid, thank you for another great video mav!! 🎉❤

Great video man. Old school kinda video for you.

Iconic drop Mav keep pushing

Small tent door for sure. Wood stoves are amazing but are a little bit of a learning curve

Thank you for taking us along on your adventures. You need to get a fish house sponsor, an electric generator, electric heater.

Those disco-bed cots are awesome

Sunday night is Mav Time. Look forward to watching Mav every week.

Luke from Outdoor Boys knows how to use a wood stove in -60 degrees. It’s definitely a skill that requires practice. Maybe do an overnight closer to home where you can get more familiar with it. Looks like you made the right call, packing it up early.

Awesome video Mav!!❤

Mav keep doing hard work... I like your work

These are my favorite videos that you make mav! Keep it up

Its so beautiful out there! Enjoy bother!!

Love what you do mate, I’m giving it a go myself to travel

I love ice fishing!

Wow.. those were some nice fish. Thanks for the video

Welcome to Canada Mav & Dan. What a gorgeous Trout so big thanks' for letting it go , The first one could have been a keeper. To bad you couldn't have found a bay out their with some protection from the wind, even if you went on shore. usually what we do. Next time eh. grreat fishing awesome catches . hope you'll come back. Watching from Ontario Canada .

Holy cow...big fish..way to go. Bummer about the stove. Gald your ok! Good video!

I feel your pain with the smoke !! The first couple times ice camping I got smoked out in the middle of the night and was so frustrating. Every time your out you will learn something new . Tips .. a wind deflector is a must on the end of the pipe , bring a piece of plywood to put under the stove to stop the melting that will happen when the stove is working properly and try and cover the whole ice in something to stop the heat from melting. Did a 4 day trip and when I left the floor had around 5 inches of water everywhere from the heat of the stove . All that water and being cold from the stove smoking us out all night really sucked .. happy fishing MAV

Damn, stay safe out there Mav

Another fun video - cheers, Mav ✌️ you gotta start getting standing dead wood when you can. That stuff you’re finding already on the ground will be wet and won’t give you much heat at all and will keep going out like it was in this video. As much wood kept in the tent the better too, you can imagine how putting a frozen piece of wood in the stove will dramatically drop the temperature so you’re constantly having to keep heating it up instead of heating the environment.

Finally, something good to watch today!!!!!

For oth of u i have so much respect !! Seein u release a monster because she's an old girl was awesome. Most ppls wouldn't, shows ur true passion for the sport and the fishes! Stay safe!

Dan seems like your best fishing buddy.

I could never get tired of These videos Mav. Keep it up thanks for entertaining us

Nice to see another ice fishing vid. It’s currently 38C (around 100F) where I live

I love episodes with Dan!

My absolute nightmare but love watching Mav do it

Thanks Mav 😊

@21:02 mav you ask what day you do about the smoke and breathing? Rotate the house 🏠 to the opposite side and let the smoke stack be on the backside of the house so the wind pulls the smoke out of the stack and blow the smoke away

Your wood stove is smoking because the fire is "cold". First use dead standing trees for firewood. Firewood you find on the ground is wet. Bust the firewood into small pieces. Load them to the rear. The hotter the fire the less smoke.

Mav, love the content man keep doing what your doing. Also want to say I love your brand and your ads! 🤘✌

Superbowl? Nah, MavBowl!

Good vid love watching your videos keep them coming

If the smoke is coming back in, open the door to the wood stove. It won’t completely fix the problem but it helps a lot.

Beautiful backdrop of the trees and ice lake in Canada whilst fishing. One of the most beautiful countries on Earth. Canada loves & welcomes you. 🤙🏼❤️🏔️🛶🎣🏂

love the vids, just ate the beef stroganoff with noodles was great

Another awesome video!!

We really enjoyed your video with some nice looking fish

One of the few mav episodes where I’m glad I wasn’t there. 😂

Great adventure thanks for sharing this journey. Please stay safe. Stay warm buddy . God Bless Ya'll. Mucho Love from your friend in Michigan Tam ❤️ ♥️ 💕

Hvacker here. The elbow you said broke probably just popped put of its lip holding it in there since you can rotate them around. Just need a small flat head and good patience. Preferably that exhaust needs to be 4" or higher. Getting to much smoke off that 3" use 4 or higher should solve the problem. Love the vids.

I been watching your RU-vid videos for like 7 years now and I really like it I’m going to lie I like seeing you enjoying your self

When my life gets quite bumpy, I watch Mav and it all goes away for the time being.❤

Mav’s videos always make me wanna go on an adventure

tips for the stove in case you wasn’t sure. the knob on the pipe is the damper you want to leave that wide open when you’re starting the fire and trying to make as much heat and flame as possible and when you get it to a temp you like you close it down and it will slow the fire down and make it burn slower and longer, when you need to put more wood on you open the damper and put wood on let it take back off good and then shut the damper back down. i hope this helps.

Woof! That looked unpleasant!

my man, thanks for being you, gotta book a trip to Minnesota, love them locals

Always a fun adventure

Love how you say that you guys are out in the middle of nowhere and Mary and Gary come hiking through as you catch that massive trout lol. They know Mav. They know where you are lol
