    I've watched a ton of these videos. When I was younger, I'd stay in a small log cabin room like structure. Nothing beats a good working wood stove. Those RV's, some have an electric fireplace, that's okay until the power goes out. My dads house was heated with a huge wood stove. Fireplaces, Wood stoves are the only way to go. The early settlers had it all figured out.

    We love your videos. Especially those with Rachyl! We loved the ice skating! There is nothing like skating in the winter cold on a lake.. though never did that at those temps. Can’t imagine in 90k winds, with that windchill, way out in the boonies, in a small cabin with that small wood stove. Yikes. More videos please!

      Our winters have become very good for skating. From December to February the temperatures usually sit around 0 C, and the lakes consistently freeze, thaw and re-set. Nature's zamboni :)

  • @robadr13
    @robadr13 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Beautiful nighttime and skating footage! Still surprised at the 2"-3" ice thickness standard for skating. When I was a kid in the Maritimes, we always said 6" was the minimum - one of those things I've carried in my head unquestioned ever since. :-) It was a river we skated on, but a mile-wide one. Still, it would have been moving water underneath. Nice to see you carrying ice picks!

    • @NorthernScavenger
      @NorthernScavenger  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The ice quality always plays into the equation. Black ice is the strongest, and I feel more comfortable when it's a bit thinner

    As kids we used to get nice smooth ice surfaces on the lakes for skating after some freeze thaw or rain in March, just in time for March Break. This early season ice is so unfamiliar but super cool! Glad to see the safety gear and tips on checking ice.

  • @mrben6573

    Lovely video. You've stayed in a ton of these back country cabins. You must have an idea of what works, what doesn't, features you'd like to see, layouts you prefer, materials you think work better than others, etc. It would be great if you built your own cabin, or crowd funded the construction of a new public cabin or something like that. That would be the tops. Or maybe just do a little doodle video where you draw out what you think the ideal back country camping cabin would look like and how it would be similar or dissimilar to other cabins you've stayed in. I'd find that really fascinating.

    Cool video. Looks like fun. Underwater springs can be a dangerous concern. Also a great fishing spot. The water takes longer to freeze in such a spot. Unpredictable where they are if you dont know the lake. Be careful, that thin ice could be anywhere. Less than 8 inches and i test the ice continually on unfamiliar water.

  • @dweb823
    @dweb823 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Noted the Poptart dessert. EVERYTHING tastes good when you are out in the wild. In my youth I took many summer canoe trips in and around Algonquin and one summer something called Fizzies were all the rage…essentially fruit flavored Alka Seltzer. A staple on many of those was Red River. You either loved it or hated it and I was firmly in the latter camp. Viewed it as boiled bird seed.
    Nothing topped PB &J which we mixed together in single containers.
    Today it is chili oils, Asian spices, dried mushrooms and dumplings. Not complaining but boy have things changed in terms of tasty lightweight foods for camping.
    Love the videos. Seeing the newest one in my YT feed is always a treat, and the longer the better!

    Thank you for mentioning the ice picks. I hardly ever see anyone on the ice with those. I fell through some pretty thick ice once, because there was a bit of a pressure ridge, which happens a lot on really big bodies of water, plus it was close to a totally non descript pier of lake, that I believe had a spring under it. Thank god I felt it start to crack, and had time to throw myself over and roll away before I went all the way in. I’ll never forget the sight of that water under me.
    I was wet to just below the waist. I walked back to the cabin, but my lands froze so solid that I couldn’t get up the stairs. Maybe my knees were too cold too, I dunno.
    I’ll never go over deep water with ice less than 4”. 3 is fine IF there are no big cracks , natural springs under, and all the other things you mentioned.
    Having said all that, looked like a nice little over nighter. It was so rare to have ice that was good for skating where I was, but when it was, it was the cooled thing to actually go somewhere on skates!

    Lakes were our only rinks in the 1970s and 1980s. Winters were longer and colder in Nova Scotia then. We'd skate all January and February without worry. I recall being out in the middle of a large lake when the ice 'cracked' beneath our feet. It was loud. I assume it was settling or something. The ice was thick. But, oh, the shiver that would go through my body when that would happen. But it didn't stop us because people would take their cars onto the ice. If it held them, we knew we were safe.

A local lake froze without snow on it and we all skated for miles. Loads of hockeys games were being played too. 🇨🇦❤
