  • Taking the Ailner Classic on a winter camping trip from Milford Massachusetts to the New Hampshire White Mountains. This is our second trip with the Aliner. First time using the wood stove, other then the experimenting I did in my back yard. Hancock Campground is the only northeast campground I know of that is open in the winter, besides private ones. One vault/pit type bathroom was available, the others were snowed in, and it was very clean. A large hand pump for water. It took about a minute of pumping to get water to come out. I didn't expect to have water there, so I had brought about 10 gals with us.
    To some of the commenters;
    Yes, my dog should have been leashed, but we were the only ones there except for a few cars that passed through. After the 3 plus hour ride we wanted to let him stretch his legs. Most of the time he was tied up.
    The music came from TH-cam. I was concerned about copyright laws, so I took random songs that youtube had to offer.
    Yes, I need to improve my video making skills. Basically I made this with what I had recorded. In hindsight I can see ways to make it better.
    The wood stove I made out of a damage air tank from a diesel truck and some scrap metal. It's about 9" round by 12" with a 3" stove pipe.
    I have a screen in the end of the pipe for a spark arrester.
    (I'm thinking about making a video on the stove and how I set it up)
    I was worried we would be cold, but the wood stove kept us very warm, we needed to open the door a few times to cool the Aliner. I only had to feed the fire once during each night after being awakened by the furnace. The furnace thermostat was set on the lowest setting. I wasn't sure how long the battery would last for the blower, but just coming on twice there was no problems. The blue recycle bin in the video had all the wood we needed for the two nights. I had brought twice that, plus extra LPG tank and borrowed a Honda generator..and had extra blankets. Outside temp was about 30-35 degrees fahrenheit, not to cold. Inside at head level could reach 90, counter height 65-75 and on the floor 40-45 degrees.
    Yes, we have a fire extinguisher and co detector.
    ...and we survived!!! ;)
