  • I spend 24 hours sleeping in a primitive moss roof stealth shelter, surviving on military mre rations. I hike 2 miles to a remote forest and build a bushcraft shelter out of sticks and moss. I then spend the night in the shelter with minimal camping gear. British Armed Forces 24 hour combat operational ration packs can give you up to 3,000 calories. Each ration pack is designed to provide ample nutrition and calories to last 24 hours in survival, combat, or emergency situations. I burn calories fast building the primitive survival shelter, so it's important I replace those calories with the high-calorie mre rations.
    My videos cover Bushcraft, shelters, camping, off grid cabin building, diy, survival skills, wilderness survival, cooking, primitive technology, asmr, fishing and outdoor nature skills.

    Here in the states several native American tribes would decorate trees in the middle of their hunting grounds with fresh animal skulls, but it wasn't for anything sinister, it was a form of conservation. When you hunted an animal and hung it's head up, you were telling the next hunter what animals had been most recently taken from that area, so they knew to hunt something else and not thin out the population.

    Not gonna lie, if I just set up my shelter and then I saw 3+ skulls on sticks I would just move locations and start over

    You talking about the dry cake had me giggling and missing my grandpa. He was a WWII vet and up until he passed every piece of cake he ate had coffee poured over it, and my grandmother never made a dry cake. He just got really used to pouring coffee over any cake/bread food while he was in the Army and never bothered to break the habit. Gave a whole new definition to coffee cake.

    Was I the only one watching the background for someone watching him after he found the skulls on sticks?

    To be honest I thought you were going to be eaten when you started finding skulls on sticks

    Be careful. All the skulls make me think. Skin walker or Wendigo.

    Seems like a lot of food in that ration but when you’re doing work like this calories go quick!! 😁

    That apricot jam packet makes the biscuit browns tolerable. Or sometimes you can get a spread, either peanut butter or cheese spread. The sesame seed bars... you’re on your own

    Keep the shelters up, you never know but you may save a life if someone is lost in the area.

    It has been a long time since I did any light camping (i.e. with only what you can carry on your back). Back in my teens (1960's), our scout troop went camping 12 months a year and in western Oregon that ment camping in the rain most of the time. Our basic shelter was a plastic tarp. Our biggest problem was finding dry firewood and keeping it dry. Our food was homemade: rice & cooked cereals, dry meat, flour, and dried fruit. We were proud of our ability to supplement our diet with wild plants and small game. Our ideal shelter was 4-6 inches off the ground with a trench around it to drain the rain away and enough space to store firewood for breakfast. Of course you needed a fire pit within reach of your sleeping bag. It was a matter of honor never to get out of bed before you had cooked and eaten your breakfast. We kept our gear ready to go with 3 days food because we also had 3-4 extra "no notice" camping trips a year. The school would be closed due to snow (western Oregon remember, it didn't take much snow) and we be off camping. Very fun times. I really enjoyed your videos. They are full of interesting information and knowledge which I enjoy as a former camper and history buff. I've built log cabins but never any of the older types of homes. Thanks for all your work.

    Thanks for another video, just digging in now. Wanted to say, I found you and your dad about a month ago and loved it right off rip. I grew up in the outdoors, but am disabled now, and watching these vids brings back such great memories and inspires new ideas for in the apartment! Thanks muchly much for taking all of us with you on your voyage of discovery. I raise my glass to you, your dad, and your family. Cheers! Happy St. Patty’s Day, if you’re into that kind of thing!🍻

    Reminds me of when I was a child of around 10 years old. My grandpa had 10 acres of ancient woodland near Windermere and he and I made a shelter of wood (silver birch) and moss! It was so much fun and he was a great teacher!

    I have been studying the art of bushcraft for about a year or more. I have been doing lots of research and prep work on my go bag and learning so much about survival. These videos have been incredibly inspiring and such a joy to watch. Truly, these videos have given me a new excitement for this hobby that I know I'll enjoy and will become part of a life style. It takes camping to a whole new level. Such great skills that our culture never should have lost. Thankful for the work you do to bring all this knowledge! Please keep posting, we love it!
