The Yukon works great as a center piece to any backyard.
The Yukon was not designed with cooking as the main objective. The Yukon is meant to be used as a backyard fire feature. That said, feel free to break out the marshmallows or hot dogs on a stick!
The Solo Stove Lite, Titan and Campfire are more portable backpacking and camping stoves meant for cooking. The Yukon is the most amazing backyard fire pit and was designed to accommodate larger groups who enjoy sitting around a beautiful, low-smoke flame.
Any firewood logs will burn but for optimum efficiency we recommend dry hard woods. Hardwoods such as birch, maple, hickory and oak will burn longer than softwoods.
We recommend using 6-8 average size logs. Don't overfill your Yukon. Once you have a hot bed of embers, you can always throw on more logs. To minimize smoke and optimize your flame, don't fill the wood above the holes at the top of the fire pit.
After your Yukon is cool, turn it upside down to empty any remaining ashes left in your fire pit. We recommend that you always cover your Yukon when it's not in use. It's that easy!
