Spotted this guy tonight at Mt Hood Meadows. All the way from Pennsylvania. Wood stove, dirt bike and surf boards. Looks like a great trip.

If you have to route a stove pipe out of your bus, I guess that's the easiest way to do it without cutting holes in the sheet metal.

Yup! ^^
Funny, I've thought about different ways to do this, and for some reason never even considered the windows that roll down ... Duhhh! Wonder where the stove itself sits?

Wow that is actually genius, although dealing with a stove pipe every time you camp may become a pain in the ass, I wish I had a wood stove. I just ended up going with a huge suburban propane furnace.

Wood heater: need to ensure adequate fresh air ventilation; adding a CO sensor suggested too. Cheap insurance that you'll probably outlive your skis!

Doubt anyone sits in front while camping, and I bet the stove is all of coffee can size.
