Solo Bushcraft Camp using Traditional Gear: Canvas Lavvu, Wool Blanket, Sheepskin Bed

- I head out alone on a solo bushcraft trip. Carrying my gear in a waxed canvas backpack, sleeping on sheepskin with a wool blanket inside a canvas lavvu tent. I start a fire using a traditional hbc firelighting tin, flint and steel and the inner bark of the cedar tree that I keep in my leather tinder pouch. I grill meat over the fire and enjoy time camping alone a the dark forest. Thanks for watching!

The best part of the video is your LOTR t shirt
and the worst part on the contrary is NO BEER. Hey Mike, its not the time to be responsible father just yet :) Cheers

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate all the extra walking he had to do every time he had to go back and set up or take down the cameras?
Like good grief man, all the work you put into these for us! Thank you so much!
i love all the new series but they can’t beat the good old videos like this one!
ayo forgot to mention I watch ta outdoors aswell :p just about to watch your vid man lol
The fact you got creative is what I like here, and you're accurate. 17:01 made my day, you found fun in you're element. And that's what makes a human a human. Thank you.
Hey Mike a very soothing to the soul type of overnighter condensed down into whatever the time was but within a half hour thanks for keeping me company for half hour brother it was nice to see a really talented man working his film craft as well as Bushcraft !😁
Nothing better than campfire food !
i think its awesome that you are sharing your home life with your subscribers. i enjoy all the content.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the evolution of the channel, but this is a delightful return to form. Pepper the feed with this every so often, and you’re golden. Cheers!
OMG thats a pocket pointer with the ends cut off. Brilliant.
Congratulations on you and your wife having a baby I wish it to be a boy or a girl that you can take camping with you and teach the wonderful world of the Wilderness which is awesome I think he will make it awesome father that child is so lucky before he even breathe the breath of fresh air God bless
The more I watch these bushcraft videos the more I want to get out into the woods if only I wasn't so afraid 🙁 enjoyed your video 👍
Hello Mike,
do you know what's stupid? That you can only give one thumbs up.
This video was very good, especially your explanations and how it worked.
A warm greeting to Emmy.
Greetings from Germany
Tom
you tube needs a heart .. for LOVE IT !!
Eine Deutsche huh?
Deutscheland ist ein sehr gud
A pocket bellows is a wonderful piece of kit for keeping one's face out of the smoke and for preventing a singed beard when starting a camp fire.
@Zack Darce Hey, Zack. You and others would be right about using MOST pocket bellows...but Mike is right about this one because of the brass end section and the way in which the brass protects the steel from overheating through rapid conduction and dispersal of heat at the tip.
@Zack Darce Thinking outside the box, I use mine both ways, depending on whether I want to concentrate air on a single coal or on a wider area in a fire that is already started.
Mike, you and your family have become a part of ours...your subscribers. I am sure that I am not alone in saying that although we all enjoy your outdoor adventures, we also enjoy the personal videos. I wish you and you wife Em all the best and can't wait for future videos. Your farmhouse is beautiful.
Fist bumps 👊👊👊👊👊, high fives/pats on the back ✋✋✋✋✋, extra thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍 Pets ❤❤❤❤❤, treats and tummy rubs.
Hey Mike, I think you had the pocket bellows the wrong way round. The narrowest part of the tube should be towards the fire. This way it accelerates and concentrates the airflow. The pocket bellows are part of my essential gear and featured on my channel a lot here in Canada! A total must for Winter camping 🇨🇦 Best wishes Michael & Esme 🐶
The shots where you are walking through the forest always amuse me because we know you set up a camera, got your gear and then "candidly " walked through the forest. Love your videos!
I was given a box full of surplus poncho halves back in the '80s, I used them in pairs to make a teepee for camping, singles as a wind break and even as a sleeping bag on a trip through France, wish I still had some.
For blow starting fires, I use a freebie selfie stick I have dismantled.
An alternative to your blanket roll is to have a look at the how to items for cowboy bed rolls.
Love the farmhouse video. Looking forward to more. Love all your videos. Very happy for you and your family.
The extendable tube is much more effective if you blow from the wider side imo. This way the air gets compressed and concentrated. Works like a frikin' furnace. As always great video mate :)
I wanted to say the same thing. I have this V3 Pocket Bellows telescopic tube and is a very useful tool
Filip Pavlov he mentioned that he was blowing at the wrong end at the 22:01 mark
I'm watching this to escape a massive hangover!
And then there are people like me who enjoyed the farm house video!
Great point on the size needed for a cooking fire. 👍
Yours is the only bushcrafting channel that my wife will watch with me. She likes your dad and Jaxx too.
Cant believe people complained about the farmhouse episodes. How rude. Dont like it, dont watch it! Some people
I have saved this for now... my relax .. decompress and regroup time .. I started watching this morning and just KNEW it would be perfect for now. I love ALL your videos ... I don't always comment but I do watch all of them .. some many times over ! Thank You for such awesome content on a consistent basis ! This is simply the BEST bushcraft / out doors / camping / etc.. channel on you tube ! I regret I have only one thumbs up to give ... : ]
Great video. I love the fire blowers. I bought them in a place they call them bellows. What a great piece of gear for any fire kit. Specially in wet weather. Help to get the fire going. I forgot to said. Added a 3 feet of plastic hose to the big end. Now don't have to put my face close to the fire.
Your camping videos bring me great peace, thank you.
Canvas tents are my favourite...
You've got such a great head on your shoulders. Thank you for the content you put out.
Making a bigger impact than you may realize :)
Nice shirt Chief & when camping 🔥 are concerned responsibility is the only way to be
I love to see when you get a new piece of camping equipment that makes camping more much easier and more fun!
Awesome video man! 👍 Bushcraft with traditional hand tools is a great experience that more people should experience!
Honestly when he did the TA with the fire I smiled a little
Pocket bellows are awesome! I just found out about them a little bit ago and they are so simple and easy to use
You look so at peace, love the serenity.
great video mike... good old overnighter bushcraft style
anywhere life takes you guys we will go !!!
Love the Lord of the Rings T shirt, great video as always.
Thanks for the gear close ups. The copper kit is lovely. I was laughing at the ponchos...my husband is tall and skinny and I'm short and round. We'd have quite a lopsided tent! 😂🏕️
Congratulations on the 1 million. Miss the old solo vids but life happens so we understand. Can’t wait for more, have a good one.
Oh, look at you! Two or three strikes and you got the fire started! You made that look soooo easy! But I've seen other bushcrafters, with more experience than you, really struggle with the flint and steel... so job well done.
I love the Lavvu! That is such a simple but brilliant concept. If my health let me leave the house, THAT would be my tent.
thanks for taking us along.
You...and Doug Linker are my favorite people.
This reminds me a bit of the "Tackle Shack" episode where your Dad talked about traditional fishing tackle. A few months later, here you are using traditional camping gear. I really enjoyed both videos, yours and your Dad's! Maybe an interest in traditional things runs in your family? Best wishes!
Keep posting whatever you feel like you want to. I'm always glad to see your content, be it bushcraft or house stuff.
Cheers Mike, congratulations on your family, my best wishes for you all! Farmhouse videos are grand!
Yeah bro! We have been waiting for this episode for a long time...:)
Missing this series. Thanks for bringing thid back. Loved you "TA" firewood signature. Great stuff and loved your farmstead.
Great video Mike 👍. Yer you can't beat, peace and tranquillity when camping. Great to hear that , you're family life is going good 👍
i love my pocket bellows
In the States, we have a product we can buy called a "Pocket Bellows", same concept. I have a few of them myself, they work great. Nice outing.
Make a dugout shelter someday. Not many people make them, which means they are special.
I've used the "stop drop and roll" mantra way less than I thought I would in my adult life but thank you for the fire safety tip.
A suggestion for your blow tube: Put the larger end to your mouth so the tube gets smaller to the fire. This should increase the velocity of the air at the smaller end. Kind of like increasing water pressure with larger tubes into smaller tubes which increases the velocity and pressure of the water at the exit end.
Well, at minute 22 you're talking about the proper use of the tube and you're speaking about what I just said. Imagine that!
Good to see you buddy ,hope the new house is working out for you and the family ,tell the old da i said hi and Dustin too .
I live in Florida and the air only now this past week even started to feel slightly less humid, never mind crisp.
Awesome stuff mike cheers from Australia mate🇦🇺💯👍
Good stuff, thanks for the video. I hope to see another video on this channel with your dad soon!
Yeh will get out with Dad soon for a video
1 Mil 🙌🏼Welldone sir 🏴
Love your videos my friend. And I agree, not knowing the gender of our baby was the best thing me and my wife have ever experienced!
been waiting for this video! great work as always!
Our camp cooks use a period iron blow tube. We reenact the war of 1812 here in Canada. They work amazingly well. Especially when restarting a fire thats gone almost out overnight.
Hi nice to see you love your videos 😍 and the way you start the fire!! Kudo's!!
Hey Mike, A Pocket Bellows can be made out of just about anything. Reeds, Bamboo and given you have Dustin for a mate, I would have thought he would have made one out of a Deer Bone. Another good video. Cheers!
I love les bâches kaki canvas milit
I have never watched a TA video that I didn’t like 👍🍺
Nice weather for camping in woods hope had good time
My first tent was a polish lavvu which I bought after watching one of your videos. I then subscribed and have got into camping which I find a great way to de-stress. I've been camping in the garden with my 7 year old daughter this week - 3 overnighters. She loves it!
love the LOTR shirt
I liked the farmhouse video
Be nice to have a mixture of the farm house projects n some camping trips.
I like when you cook up a meal too.
Of course like to see jax as well...love Jack Russels.
Thanks mike..hope your family are well.
Loving this video. Anything featuring your Polish Lavvu is always totally awesome.
One ring to rule them all
Clicking several times for 10 seconds backward just for that sunny steak shots.. Congrats for the million!
Congrats for the million subs, keep these videos coming.
Really clever 👌 with the T and A Outdoors
;)
I like your videos before I watch them, because I know them to be 🔥!
I've gotten into bushcraft more also got a few videos up now. Its impressive to have seen you channel grow take care
I'm sorry Mike, I didn't even know you uploaded a farm house episode. I will be sure to watch it. I must have missed the notification or didn't get it! I'm excited about the baby For you!! I can't wait!! Aren't you closure to the Enchanted Forest? Can we go Back there with you?? Take Dustin this time, let's see what kind of brainstorming you two can do there!!
Like all ur vids....no worries! Glad to hear 'mommy' is doing well!
hey mike, if you pack your rucksack upwards i.e. above your shoulders, it'll feel more comfortable and easier to carry, for eg. stick the lavvu on the top instead of the bottom.
TA for Totally Awesome !
Out of all the outdoor videos your the only one to use a blow stick, well done
My inspiration 😁
Getting bushcraft 🙏
Make sure Jax gets a bellyrub😁🐶
Thanks mate.the face on ye when u stood up at then end with the bag was like I don't remember it being this heavy haha great vid
A night in sherwood forest🤠
Great Video!
Greetings
Tobias
Very good channel!
Hey Mike, I love these videos. I'm nursing a pretty brutal injury and its left me unable to camp right now. Sometimes I just put your vids on the TV and just let them play while I laze around. It's like camping by proxy! Keep it up man, and congrats on 1M!
Thank you
enjoyed your video please do another 1
Vive la France 👍👍👍
Just the thought of bedding down with ticks around gives me the heebeejeebies! Hope your bug repellent did the trick.
Gettin' back to your roots!! Good choice!
Felt it was time!
Another great video. But I think that when you leave a fireplace, you should take the ashes and spread them around by hand as part of your site clean up so you can be absolutely sure there's no smoldering embers. Even pouring water on it, isn't fool proof.
Good to see the good ole tinder pouch again! haha
Awesome video 👍
Mike. 24c hot.. oh boy. That's a nice room temperature. Try camping at 30 and above no breezes.
The tube you can replicate with thumb and index fingers.
Make a diamond shape using both digits from both hands.
Hold to lips and blow.
Great video! As always! Hope everything is going well with the move and the baby!
Lmao. When you said it's 24 degrees I laughed so hard. It's about 40 degrees here in Texas. Love the videos plan on bushcraft camping myself when it cools down.
