    Not to mention buckets make amazing mice traps..we got 15 or so in one night, they were everywhere! Now a bucket is a necessity!

    I believe luxe tents are made in China, if that’s the case you might be in for some heavy duties. I got killed on my stone glacier sky dome as it’s made in Taiwan.

    Yup probably But will still be cheaper than buying a 8-person tipi from seek outside

    I would highly recommend the 3w stove they sell. I have tried a bunch and it’s the best all around. The glass door is awesome for keeping an eye on the fire.

    Thinking about getting one of those are tight Wood stoves from Home Hardware when they come in stock But I'm curious it comes with a 6-inch flue Can I go from a 6 inch down to a 4in Stove pipe and still have the stove function properly

    I ended up buying the light Outdoors titanium XL stove can be a pain in the ass to set up but very impressed with the stove using the baffle. Three of the nights that we were using it we stoked it around midnight and at 7 a.m. it was still warm to the touch

    As mentioned earlier, 20 Litre buckets have many uses. We used to seal them real good and put all our dry food in them and if we were tight on room they went in the pontoons. Years ago when I went nearly every year on a fly in I got the measurements for the cargo space in the beaver and constructed a 3 sided storage fence to the near exact size and it was great for not only knowing what to take but in what order to load the plane for best utilization of space. Tried to pack as much as possible in duffle bags as they could be squeezed into voids and other small openings. And many, many years ago, in the days of the Otter never leave home without your Honda Generator and full sheets of plywood for the tent floor. If I recall the Otter was $2.25 a mile. I think we spent more boozing it up in Smithers on the way up than the plane costed. To be young again!
