When it comes to camp life, two words we need to remove from our vocabulary are struggle and hassle. Every problem we face in the outdoors can be solved with the help of Mother Nature. Sometimes, you just need to know where to look!
The forked branch in a tree, which we commonly refer to in the Bushcraft World as a "Y branch" can provide continuous assistance at camp. Here are 10 of my most favorite ways to use the Y Branch! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
A Y-branch - the Holy Grail of a Bushcrafter/Survivalist...
I hurt my eye doing that exact same thing , wear safety glasses please.
@@Bushmen918 Hey bro, please explain how you hurt yourself so we have insight.

Finally! I always had a good grasp of the whats, who’s, whens, wheres, and hows of camping… but never the Y’s!!
Dan's energy, knowledge and love of the outdoors is a joy to watch.
He's got schoolteacher gene.
you prolly dont care but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!
@Jeremiah Misael Instablaster =)
@Soren Kaden i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Soren Kaden It worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account!
Today's Episode of UCO is brought to you by the letter Y!
Great video!
But y?
And the number 10! 10! Ahahahahahahahaha! 10!
Paid for, in part, by viewers like you.
was waiting for him to say Y can also be used as a vowel

Merry Christmas Dan,
And everyone who read this.
Greetings from a Belgian bushcrafter
Merry Christmas!
@@janemorris4237 ask japan if nuclear bombs exist
@@somekid6718 To split hairs, those were "atomic bombs" using fission. Nuclear bombs are fusion and have never been used in war.
@@harrymills2770 I’m not really a nuke nerd so thanks for the new information
@@janemorris4237 I need to hear more. I'm attempting to expand my horizons and would love to hear more from you.
Dan is a must watch for anyone who loves being in the woods.
On the hot water bottle; use same type y fork but with a longer hook. Horizontally place it on the fire side at neck height of the bottle and then squeeze the fork till it makes a good purchase and lift out. Might even be able to turn the bottle to dispense the hot water.
Appreciate your work.
I was going to suggest this. This is how I do it.
When ya did the finger shooting, it sorta looked like a Y branch😀. Thanks for teaching us nice little camp hacks Dan.
When you used the y branch to get the bottle out of the fire. You could use a green y branch but leave both sides long and just squeeze them together around the top of your bottle and pick it up that way. And you can let the bottle go a lot easier that way. Not hard to get out of the bottle if you don't stick it in it to start with.
Exactly what I was thinking, came here to say this
@@HawaiianKong same
So many "Y" branches!!
Do you grow the "Y" branches!?! LOL!
STAY STRONG!😅
Love the boot dryer idea, smoke from the fire underneath will also kill bacteria and prevent foot rot
Just know what you're doing drying boots with a fire. You can ruin a good pair of boots that way. But yeah, it's easy to get waterlogged in fall/spring in Pennsylvania. More dangerous than the dead of winter.
Me: mmm, what is This?
Dan: huh? It's Chicken!
Me: hmm, tastes like smoked boot...
Dan: It's 'y' branch chicken. Eleven!
Me: eleven? Why?
Dan: exactly!
I just did a snowy camp and used the y branch for soo many things! Everyone thought I really knew my stuff lol. Taking pot out of fire, collecting water, hanging a leg of lamb under the tripod which I learnt from you.Legend!
While traveling the Himalayan mountains I once snagged a great large Yeti with a Y branch. Long story no time to tell right now So perhaps another time. Love your channel.
The Yeti still spin tales of the Great Y-Branch Hunter.
You are revered by their caste.
They caution their children of your prowess.
I've never understood why Yeti are so terrified by Y branches.
The Yeti was left asking Y
Remember to chamfer the edge of any wooden pole you are going to hammer into the earth, it helps it not to split.
Especially in harder ground.
So take knife or axe and just chamfer the edge right around
The problem with a straight cross cut is when your hammer/axe/baton hits one edge it concentrates all the force of the blow onto the outside of your wood and tends to split it
Easy to take a few seconds and give it a chamfer
I first have to say, out of ALL the Bush Crafters who create amazing helpful videos…yours are #1! I really enjoyed this video and decided to finally give you a comment. You are such a punny guy and I loved your fire starter idea using a “Y branch”… seriously can not wait to get out and try it! Also I know the kids will love the marshmallow idea…thank you so much for taking time to teach and just be an absolute joy to watch! Cheers and safe adventures! You rock!
I just so happened to watch this before going to the mountains... Yessss!!!!
i'm just here because i was having a bad day and Dan is a sure bet to cheer up a person
The Y branch also comes in handy for cooking hotdogs, brats, and sausages over the fire. They won’t spin and rotate around as they often will on a stick. Great video 👍 my friend, God bless you and yours and stay safe!
I appreciate the pronunciation of "hanger" as well as the good tips!!
The marshmallow thing, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. Thanks for that.
Yeah, man; that slayed me too!
Awesome video. Retired Army Special Forces Ranger here, your advice is spot on!!! Great advice. Thanks for sharing with the younger Gen. Major praises to you!!!!! To all, this guy knows what he is talking about!!!👍👍💪💪
Learning and laughing (a bit). Enjoy your presentations.
Your the real deal . A stack of simple Hacks CHANGES OUTCOME ! thanks man
This is Y your channel is so great !
I see what you did there
Dan you are the man! Great y branch tricks! Love what you are doing! I can tell you love the woods. Thanks and safe camping! 🙏❤️
You're a true treasure! Love your sense of fun.
Thanks Dan, i look forward to seeing your videos, keep on going!
Went out yesterday and did the Y branch thing. Perfect...thank you.
I love your enthusiasm for the good ol Y branch 👍
Dan Wowak, king of the Y branch! Thank you for the outstanding videos that contain very useful information. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
You got a really positive attitude that makes these videos even better. Subbed
Just sitting here on my property watching the chickens (hawk security) and enjoying the video.
Thank you that was very entertaining and informative
A good short and to the point video
Plus you energy made me smile
God bless you brother your a good teacher an these youngsters and adults need to know. Thank you
The music was so cheery and uplifting.
Love your personality. Thanks for all your info. Learning every week using your info every month. Your the best. From Canada
These videos are solid. Simple, effective, and practical. Keep up the great work.
Dude. Just discovered your channel and am grateful for learning some tips. You are fun and entertaining as a teacher. Thank you!!
Tip number 4 is the most interesting for me, as I often struggle with fire. Thanks mister!
That was pretty slick, giving it some air. But you can achieve pretty much the same thing with two or more sticks stacked to form a 'v' or an 'x' and you start your fire in one of the corners, for wind-break and structure.
Y Branch stands for YES you can stop struggling and being hassled. I really like how you put it in your description. Another great video...
Nearly spat out my coffee at the "Y am I sorry?" follow-up 🤣
Neat, clean, well organized, pro, way to go , man. Thanks, Dan. Texas
Love your channel, passion and enthusiasm. You have a natural talent for communication. I'm a fan.
Just discovered this channel and I love these little tips n tricks.
"Y/y" branch? WOWbranch! Yup, I'm here too Dan! Great tips!
I love your videos,I always learn something. Thank you so much!!
That's awesome Dan. Thanks for sharing.
Wow , that's informative ! I had used a Y- Branch for Fish Stringer too ! Thanx's Dan ! Two Thumbs up !! 👍👍
Thanks Dan for the several useful tips. Many are old " trail walkers " but there is ALWAYS something new to learn; that's what keeps life interesting :-) :-) Cheers.
I’ve been watching TH-cam videos for well over a decade. Without a doubt, this is one of the clearest, well-produced, and informative videos I have seen. I’m headed to UCO to purchase solely in support of this content.
My thought on the tent pegs is they are the investment of the resource of time. You take them with you to use later freeing up time for other tasks. When they become worn they are added to the fire.
Good thinking
Wooden pegs sure but people get so mad when you burn plastic
Hello Dan, the answer man for all things outdoors, very clever. All the best to you.
🤗
I do like his style, excellent instructions!
Awesome tecniques i'll be sure to utilize around the house or camp thanks for the vids bro!!!
excellent uses of the y branch.....thanks for the info
Congratulations on the sponsor
Hack #5: Use a y or wish bone type Y with two equal limbs and place a scissor hold around the neck, or cut the stem part very short and stick that end n first all the way to the bottom causing the long ends to expand out to the sides of the bottle. When I find myself in a TH-cam rabbit hole it's usually your vids or the stuff you do with Townsends (American Frontier), keep up the great work.
Enjoy your videos because they are super informative and short and sweet
Great Y Branch video...will definitely use some of these tips next time I’m camping ⛺️ Cheers from Nova Scotia!
Thank you Dan! I just bought an acre of land. These tips will come in handy!
Y branch is the icon of the italian scout, especially for the rovers, nice video!
Your videos are so easy a child could survive outdoors very informative great job and keep them coming
Dude, this video was awesome, very practical, I've shared a couple with friends in FB. Thanks.
Wish I had a photosynthetic memory where I could remember all the stuff I have learned on here. Thanks
I'm glad you saved the most important for last. my favourite.
Love your attitude.
This is AWESOME! Thank you for the video brother
Well done sir well done love the information you give to the people god bless you
This was great, my first vid of Dan. Amusing and informative. Merry Christmas.
always makes me laugh. always to the point, no nonsense., hidden gems of usefulsurvival/bushcraft tips... top notch channel
You Sir, are the best...why... you share your know how, with all us and make it a great fun useable skill..that's why.
On #5 you could find a way and anchor a piece of chordage to the shaft of the Y with the end tied on the tip of the short side to pull it into the shaft to act as a release from the bottle so you can use it again and not have a piece of stick stuck down on your Bootle
So simple and so brilliant.👍
Y branch strong!! Tyfs Dan🙏❤🙏👵
Great video and tips, Dan. Thanks!
Always a pleasure to see your videos
Awesome.... Thanks for the knowledge.
The Branch grabber is brilliant. So is the fire start.
Brilliant ideas here. Thank you for sharing your woodland engineering mind. My goodness, you have a double in a town called Nelson, B.C. He is my cousin and has your happy energy. I am on a mission to watch all your videos. Thank you and God Bless!
Very Smart clip Thank You for Sharing!!!!!
Awesome tips light humorous and informative
Was to go Dan. Excellent Vlog. Thx dude

Hey Dan, I'm looking forward to retirement so I can do this stuff, thanks for all the great tips...
Thank you for these tips!
That tenth hack though... epic!
Great video! Shared it with our scout troop!
Love your channel keep up the good work. On the hack with the canteen being removed with the y branch I have something that might work getting the branch out, if you tie a small string or line to the green part you could theoretically pull the y back and pull it the whole branch without breaking it.
Love the can-do attitude!
You forgot, a Y branch for a back scratcher. To scratch those pesky bug bites, you can't usually reach (much better than the front sight on your rifle).
Love this new tip series
Hi Dan just wanted to tell you that you make awsome videos. i made the pully for the deer i got and it worked great
LOVE IT. THANK YOU SIR!!!
