@@chadlitteral5080 Amazon sells them and she mentions in a few videos how she made some wraps. I looked it up after I saw that and it’s just 100% cotton fabric with melted beeswax wrap mixture, they sell the wraps already made and the mixture for making your own on Amazon 👍
Awesome vid! And glad to see you back out in the woods! I loved the knowledge and instructional aspect of this video, wood splitting safety and fire building and the like. Hope Grizz is gettin better!
It’s great to see you out enjoying a day in the woods relaxing!! Looking forward to seeing what you have for us throughout the winter!! Of course we miss seeing Grizz with you, hope he’s getting better.
I split kindling for over 40 yrs now and I like the way you are doing it.safe and how you feel comfortable with it.Never seen this way,keep on doing what you are doing,dont let anyone tell you any way other way than you feel comfortable with.
I'm so glad winter is here. My favorite season, no bugs, minimal sweating and there is a special beauty to a snowy landscape. Everything is more difficult in winter, and as weird as it sounds I enjoy its challenges. Will be working on firewood today making sure I have enough close to my outdoor boiler for the winter as frigid temperatures are in the forecast. Great video Careena!
Again with the surprise shoutout! 🙈 Thank you!🙏 You are to kind my friend! We are just pumped that you are happy with the sheath and are putting it to good use🤙
I’ve always loved winter hikes because of that “Silence”. Appeasement in our hustle and bustle world. The crackling of a 🔥 is wonderful catalyst for the imagination 😌
Been appreciating these shorter videos. Especially the last one with the boat-it was cool to see a bushcraft video with a different mode of transportation and to know that you’re trying to squeeze in some time with a little one at home. Having kids has been a tremendous impact on me the past six years. It’s been a lot of different emotions, but one of the best times I’ve had was when I took my then 3 year old on a kayaking overnight trip in Wyoming.
I haven't been able to hit the bush or even just get out and have a fire and meal in the bush. About 8 days ago at the ripe age of 53 I came down with chicken pox and it's kicking the shit out of me. It is comforting watching your videos because you keep it straight forward and always so sharing of your knowledge. It makes me feel like I am there and that's a big plus. Kudos and keep up the awesome work.
It was a pleasure watching you exercise all your excellent skills and being out there with you. After 55 plus years of hiking, hunting and living in the bush myself (in teepees, cabins and simple shelters) I know how good you are at what you are doing. Thanks and happy trails. Cheers!
Such a beautiful lady very nice one that I wouldn't think would even walk to the woods but she has for years. Teaching people how to do things like firewood and fires cooking just love how she does everything.
This channel was recommended to me since I follow Joe robinet and Matthew posa. Glad I found this channel. You gained a subscriber.👍🏻 Great vid. Building a shelter there would definitely be pretty epic.
Grizz is at home this trip I miss him this camp outing look beautiful in the woods with the snow love all your camping and timbermates videos God bless you all this Christmas season ❤
I really enjoy your videos Alexis. And this was no exception. I feel that I have learned so much from you about how to use an axe, a saw, a knife and a fire starter to make a quick afternoon trip in the woods so cozy and lovely. Anytime you can demonstrate your skills is so much appreciated.
Thank you for this, for someone who has some mobility problems heading out into nature even to do some simple camping just isnt a thing. So i come here to just watch you people your fires, your shelters and just relax.
I learn something new (and super helpful!) with each video. Sometimes it's just a matter of figuring out how to relax doing something I love. Best self care ever! Keep em coming, girl! You're so inspiring. Thank you
I also have a question about splinters. I know you wear your gloves most of the time when working with wood. What would you do on an overnight if you had a splinter? Wrap it and deal with it when you get home? Intrigued!
Thank you so much! for splinters, if I can reach them I usually dig them out with my knife carefully and cleanly as possible. If I can't reach them I will just leave it until I get deal with it at home
I have been an outdoors person since I was a boy in the woods playing "Rambo", and have always leaned more towards a military style. I have always appreciated good taste, craftsmanship, and history. In recent years I have started to adapt a more " bushcraft" mindset as far as styles of gear, packs, pouches, clothing, etc. Your channel has given me not only some cool items to consider for certain kits It has led me to crafters, and outfitter that I would have not otherwise ever heard of. You, and the people you support have a very unique, and practical way of outdoor fun that is classy, and true to itself. So glad I found this channel. Looking forward to more!
Thank so much for sharing ..beautifully done as always! You’re outdoor skills are incredible! Thanks Careena for being so “ down to earth “ Lots of love and wishing you many of warm fires. 👍🙏❤️
... So nice to see you out in a time you enjoy ... Love seeing the teaching segment of processing wood ,, these methods are first class .. miss Grizz ,, hope he's healing OK.....
The good news is that I always enjoy the videos you make and I am learning a lot. I'm sure that one day I will make a transition from theory to practical knowledge .cheers Alexi
I enjoy watching this type of video. I had a sporting injury and my left leg is now totally messed up making it painful to walk on, so I can't get out into the mountains as much like I used to. You take the watchers there with you and show us the simplistic joys of life. Thanks
Day trips are a great way to get some fresh air. You should build a shelter by that rock. I like how you use wax canvas products for your food, clothing, and backpack. Over all an enjoyable video to watch Careena! ❄️🏕😃
Beautiful video! I love your wood splitting technique. I’ve been doing it this way, since watching you do it, and it makes me feel like I actually know how to use an axe! Super efficient! These videos are so enjoyable to watch👍👍
Alexis, well done video. Sometimes simplicity is all that's needed, I liked that you used your axe to split kindling rather than batoning with your knife, looking forward to your winter adventures.
I watch your videos of all seasons with great pleasure. Especially your trips with Grizz are so joyful. I wish both of you health and happiness in this very special time of the year and have good times together. With my best greetings to you 🌹🍀🍁🌺🍃🐶🐾
Can't wait to see your first hot tent camping of the season! Enjoyed your relaxing afternoon in the woods and the timbermates video of the 100 year log was awesome 😁
Really been enjoying your videos. Just found your channel a couple weeks ago but I am hooked. I appreciate you reminding us that just getting out for a few hours is worth it. Thanks for sharing!
Hey, thanks for taking the time to do what you do. I really wish we'd get some snow over here in Idaho, It's been pretty dry so far. Stay safe out there.
Great to see you out enjoying the snow! My son and I just got back from an overnighter,we didn't get as much snow as you did(about an inch)but it was an enjoyable time! I love cooking right on the coals like that,what? no avocado?! haha! Can't wait to see what you have in store for this winter! Well as always stay safe! Love,hugs and peace! And an extra big hug for Grizz!
Beautiful video! I love your wood splitting technique. I’ve been doing it this way, since watching you do it, and it makes me feel like I actually know how to use an axe! Super efficient! These videos are so enjoyable to watch
I love your videos. Relaxing and informative. I have been wanting to try waxing canvas, but was hesitant. Now I actually think I have the basic understanding thank you. Wishing you the best adventures and happiest of times. Give Grizz a couple of scratches for me.
Great video would love to see snow ❄ here watching this while making some venison kielbasa looking forward to the next video with Griz. Going to camp next weekend with my old pup he is almost 13 but acts like a puppy when we get in the woods. Have a Merry Christmas and cherish the time with your friends and family.
Thanks for this. Loved this video. And thanks for explaining how you break down the kindling. I’ve seen lots of peeps do it but never had it explained. Definitely gonna try it! Also appreciate the info on the beeswax. This gave me tons of fresh ideas. Thank you! Doing great, now! 😉
Hi Careena nice to see you back out for a day trip always so relaxing, Myself I've just been going on hikes out in the woods , with the dog, I should try having a wee fire and snack with my stick stove for something different. hope Grizz is doing well and Brandon's business , Must get over to the channel, been so busy at work and looking after my mom after her surgery have not had too much time to enjoy the outdoors like id normally be doing, In due time I shall, I needed this video thank you
Awesome video, Careena! Beautiful location and camera work, and very informative commentary. I love the way you enjoy using traditional gear, and it's satisfying to see the love and care that you put into maintaining it to ensure peak performance and longevity. Safe adventures to you, my friend.
I watch a variety of bushcraft/camping/adventuring videos and I have noticed that I enjoy videos posted by women more than those by men . Women just video and describe and enjoy the experience while men tend to be critical and arrogant/opinionated . Men deal in absolutes , ignoring possibilities and methods not their own . I ENJOYED this video .
Here in Sweden there is a old military saying, you should max need 2.5cm (1 inch) of birchbark to get a fire started. But given its winter etc. More is better. Also cool video and hello from Sweden.
You should do more tutorial like videos. Like how you explained to split the wood or to wax the canvas. Although I love that you take us with you on your trips I would really enjoy seeing you explaining the things and sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Cheers from Germany!
Your first snow is a nice light dusting of snow...our first snow (Winnipeg) was a blizzard that lasted several days. That's typical though... just another day in the life over here. LOL
This style video sure brings back the OG Alexis Outdoors vibes in a good way. Really neat axe mask from Brit and enjoy seeing your collaborations with them. Looking forward to your winter content.
I was so excited to see this! I have to say.. I live in coastal NC, so from the alligators to the fire ants, to my inability to walk very far due to leg and back issues....I very much live vicariously through you. And I learn so much, so that one day... I may use it. Thank you🙂
Awe thank you very much Christie! Glad you enjoy my videos, I know when I can't get out there I also live through the videos of others, so I'm honoured that my videos do that for someone too ☺️
Happy to be back in the woods on a gorgeous winter day! Hope you guys enjoyed this video! :)
Where can I find the beeswax wraps? Or if you make them can you show us how?
We have missed you. My wife and I really enjoy your videos.

@@Tango-Juliet thanks just ordered some from Amazon. On sale today! Thanks
I love the relaxing, intimate vibe and appreciate your bushcraft tips. I hope Griz continues to improve.
I love when you do these types of videos. They're simple, contemplative and I feel like I'm there with you in a beautiful space!
Thank you so much!! So happy to hear ou enjoy them!
Corect

Damn the crackling of that fire would drive the ASMR nerds crazy 🔥😌
You make one of the best winter bushcraft videos on TH-cam 🤟🏽. That pun though 🤣
Women are so braver today, than back in the 50’s and 60’s. I congratulate you!
Such a beautiful lady very nice one that I wouldn't think would even walk to the woods but she has for years. Teaching people how to do things like firewood and fires cooking just love how she does everything.

Lots of love and wishing you many of warm fires. 👍🙏❤️
So glad to see you again. I pray Grizz is doing well. Please take care.
Always great to see you. Simple day outings with food and fire is all it takes to reset at times.

So glad i discovered this channel. Its so relaxing and makes it easy to just chill out and enjoy :)
I enjoy watching this type of video. I had a sporting injury and my left leg is now totally messed up making it painful to walk on, so I can't get out into the mountains as much like I used to. You take the watchers there with you and show us the simplistic joys of life. Thanks
Great day out! Thanks for bringing us along...
The sound of silence is so precious; I love it.
I love these videos too! Especially in the winter. I can smell the fresh air ❤
Thanks girl! I LOVE winter outings, something so special about them
Day trips are a great way to get some fresh air. You should build a shelter by that rock. I like how you use wax canvas products for your food, clothing, and backpack. Over all an enjoyable video to watch Careena! ❄️🏕😃
Beautiful video! I love your wood splitting technique. I’ve been doing it this way, since watching you do it, and it makes me feel like I actually know how to use an axe! Super efficient! These videos are so enjoyable to watch👍👍
Alexis, well done video. Sometimes simplicity is all that's needed, I liked that you used your axe to split kindling rather than batoning with your knife, looking forward to your winter adventures.
Great video. Looking forward to seeing you build the shelter ⛺️🔥🪓👍👍👍👍
I watch your videos of all seasons with great pleasure. Especially your trips with Grizz are so joyful. I wish both of you health and happiness in this very special time of the year and have good times together. With my best greetings to you 🌹🍀🍁🌺🍃🐶🐾

Takes one to know one then I guess haha! Thanks for watching girl!
Hey guys👋 just jumped on her channel.
Just jumped on here and enjoyed it. Love to hike myself.
You are both very cool.
Dang! I’m a pretty old dude and have split plenty a log for campfires. I just learned a really valuable technique from you. Thank you!
Snow and bushcraft go so well together, like sausage and beer!
Really been enjoying your videos. Just found your channel a couple weeks ago but I am hooked. I appreciate you reminding us that just getting out for a few hours is worth it. Thanks for sharing!
Hey, thanks for taking the time to do what you do. I really wish we'd get some snow over here in Idaho, It's been pretty dry so far. Stay safe out there.
Yet another great video. Thank you. Those alone day trip times are fun when you can get them in. 👍

Agree! No bugs, no people or animals! It's quiet and peaceful! Oh you do have to dress warm for it but agree, it is the best!

This video was exactly what I needed. I'm gonna go out and do same thing tomorrow. Beats sitting on couch.
Great video would love to see snow ❄ here watching this while making some venison kielbasa looking forward to the next video with Griz. Going to camp next weekend with my old pup he is almost 13 but acts like a puppy when we get in the woods. Have a Merry Christmas and cherish the time with your friends and family.

Hi love watching the camping in snow .I'm from Mauritius 🇲🇺 and there's no snow here!
First time on the channel, happy discovery. Thanks for sharing !

Just for a day ! Excellent for us one day at a time folks LOL
Thanks for the fun uploads. Stay well all.

Hi
A day out with lunch .
Great idea for calming the mind and escaping the rush .
I found your video very enjoyable to watch .
Take care .
Alan U.K.
That fire looks nice in the snow! Thanks for getting out! I'm planning a snowshoe trip for Feb, hope we get some good snow this year.
Awesome! Sounds like fun! Thanks for watching!

I use a collapsible antenna from a small radio for blowing some air into a stubborn fire. Lightweight and very helpful.
It is so peaceful and relaxing i just love your info on a day outing
Awe thanks Debbie! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Love your video, great tips throughout...yay snow, wish I had some here in Tasmania!!
OMG what a perfect video. Excellent. Thanks
Amazing video!!!! Love your content and always makes me want to go out and do what you do. Thank you for your channel.
An enjoyable video. I took virtual trip to the woods loaded with lessons. Thank you.
Thank you for watching :)
Thx again for you informative video. I look forward to them. Living in Australia, I envy your choice of outings. Keep up the good work.
I was hoping you were camping soon! Missed ya!
I miss seeing your dog with you and he must have wanted to come with you for a little time to play in the snow and just to be hanging out with you.
Giving me inspiration! I'm at the tail end of my not-so-morning sickness and I really need to get out.
Great to see you back at the Rock!
Ah yes, winter camping, done it before! No bugs, people and animals! Great video!!!👍👍👍👍
You seem so at peace in the woods.
Once again great tip for wood splitting. Thanks. And I learned it from you.
Ya know.. I was sitting here all fine and what not. Now I want some campfire cooked sausage. lol I like making bannock as well. Thanks for the video
Great tips and another great video, thank you.
Love that rock! Sort of a "Wilderness Hearth".
You young lady, are a straight up a badass. I love your videos. Keep them coming and thanks for sharing!!
Always good to get outside And enjoy it like you technic on how you chop the wood cool cover for you axe too
Classic Alexis Outdoors, great job! Nice to see.
Thank you!
Happy Winter camping season. Yayyyy. Peace.
