My new Bushcraft Shelter Hideout. THE BUILD. Day 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 เม.ย. 2020
- There's never a bad time to build a good bushcraft shelter- a place of calm respite, a place to get away from it all.... but now is especially important to get outside, get some fresh air- and GET HAPPY! I've been eyeing this spot for a while and it's time for a new shelter. Big blow-down here has provided a gorgeous amount of timber to use. Shelters need one thing.... A LOT OF MATERIAL! So this spot is gonna be great for building a shelter and also long term use for firewood. PLUS- it's right next to a cool bog and pond..... maybe some fishing is in my future!
Enjoy the sights and sounds of SPRING in Michigan. :)
Thanks for your views, comments, and support!

I love your videos. Please keep posting..
Thanks Brooke, for reminding us that we can still get out into the woods and be normal.
What I really loved about this video was just hearing the sounds in the woods. Thanks Brooke!
it's nice once in a while!
In such times of confusion,fear and desperation we have to remember to appreciate Mother earth and how well you demonstrated that through your quiet stillness, recognizing the power of a tree, beautiful trickle sound of water, the crisp crunch of leaves. Thank you for spreading your seeds of gratitude of Mother Earth among us.
I LIKE THE SOUND OF THE LEAVES CRUCHING
Booke, The quietness of your video is so soothing and natural when we walk alone in nature. We, your fans all enjoy the serenity that you bring with your journeys out, and are truly greatful that you bring us along.
I could smell the woods. Can't wait to see how this turns out!
Beautiful! You let Mother Nature speak for herself and your serene expression, priceless. You inspire me.
Nothing said but lots understood. 😎. Take care.
Loved all the sounds of nature! ❤️❤️
Great spot. Glad you're doing ok.
Less said, and the crunching of leaves/
The sound of a squirrel in the trees/
And the song of frogs echoing in the thickets/
And the girl and dog/
And the cuttings of log/
And the bark of the dog/
And the soft voice: "It's OK."/
Yes, it is OK/
IT'S OK./
nice
Sounds like poetry

Thanks, Sarah...
Hurrah!! Keep em coming!
Hey Brooke thank you for the video nothing like the country got to love it
indeed!
thank you for sharing, Girlinthewoods 🌹
you're welcome
My heart longs for the crisp sound of crushing leaves.
Silence is gold but the sound of nature is great!
How peaceful....I love how you give your dog attention whenever he/she comes close...great vid Brooke....stay safe and healthy out there !!
thanks jimbo!
So... New hideaway. Beautiful location. Looking forward to seeing it when the spring leaves show.
nature alone speaks volumes ,great video
Can`t wait for Day 2! Love and Blessings!
Looks cozy, I love your simple shelter! Also, I love that you did all the work yourself 💪💜happy trails
The magical sounds of walking and chilin in the bush. Sweet
Hey Brooke! Great to see you and Maisy out and about! To be honest I just wish your videos were longer, no bs. I write and so have to read a lot, so it's nice to just have a head-chill on your channel. No research, no deadlines, no headwork.
It's the equivalent of ambient music in the living-room - but in visual form for the brain to disengage. This is the main reason I watch a lot of bushcraft videos, because I'd probably be clueless in the wild myself lol. This summer though, I do intend to 'Get out and get happy' - your signature line, eh? :-) Happy thoughts :-)
go do it T.! you'll have fun :)
T. Hoskings unfortunately, it seems summer 2020 is cancelled.❌
I love when her videos are longer! I feel like I’m there with her and don’t want the fun to stop❤️
Looks good so far in the rough. Can't wait to see the finished shelter, your night fire and your cooking. Please be safe.
yessss
That's gotta be the longest ever that you never said a word until 14.07 time then you sir "it's ok" to Mazzie,this was a great video with all the work!!! Keep it up and you will stay young forever!!!!
Nice getting out is great clearing the mind thanks for taking us along .and don't talk so much lol
No words were needed. The sounds were so calming. Calgon take me away. No it’s Brooke. 😊
Thank you for sharing your life! I pretty much grew up around Manton but I haven't been back since the '80s. Your video reminded me of what Michigan is really about. We're about to buy property near Lake City. My wife and I walked through the woods of the property and I just wanted to sit and listen and smell it all, it felt like I was home again. Thank you both for your work and for reminding us that God is all around us. God Bless and SemperFi!
Oh nice thanks so much! Good luck!
I needed this. Away from reality. enjoy.
I love the sounds of northern Michigan in the spring!!
Southern lower Michigan isn't so bad either. At least we've had some sun! (that we can stare out the window at)
It’s beautiful out!
Spring, Nature, Da Wolf.😍🤛👍
Being in such tranquillity you wouldn't think the Corona virus is causing such havoc all over the world.. you are lucky. The rest of us can close our eyes and imagine we're there too..❤
The sounds makes me smile! Nature the best.
GREAT video Brooke! I am happy you carry also. Peace of mind is worth a lot. Sure looked like a beautiful day. We had 4" of snow last night so we can't see any ground here for a while. Did see some people camping up the road in a Clam ice house with stove going. Looked homey. Take care and tell Dave Hi from us. Greetings from the Arrowhead!!!
yes it's good to see the earth!
@@therealgirlinthewoods hip deep in places here, Brooke! It is melting fast except for our new snow last night. Wish I could send you a pick of our gazebo down by the lake. It looks like January. LOL!
What a great way to start into a sunday morning. I just got up in my Tipi, fed the horses and now I´m sitting with the first cup of coffee on the table, watching your video. Happy Trails to all of you...
wow nice!
Thank you Brooke and The Whoofer. Keeping us saine during these trying times. God Bless you

Camping and in the woods now is the best place to be.
Brooke, Beautiful video! You brought us right along with you. Wonderful sounds. Your message comes across crisp and clear. Ha... just a few poles up and Maizy settled right in and knew it was home. She happy!

Oh yeah what a way to get away from it all ,love the spring air and the sounds of spring and can't wait to see what you do with your new shelter 👍💙😆😊...
My BP literally lowers watching your videos! Can't wait for the next one! Woods and working in the woods with the abilities and skills God gave you, along with His presence, and His creation all around= much peace, and joy! I can sense your gratitude for all you are blessed with and all you accomplish with the work of your hands.
Thanks beautiful. Enjoyed the sights and sounds of nature with you and Daisy. In our thoughts and prayers. God Bless y'all and the fur babies ✌❤😁🙏

Thanks for such a beautiful stroll, that was lovely, I so love the sounds of your forest.
Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yes! I love it! Oh, and please do some fishing videos in the future. You are simply amazing! I love your videography! I feel at peace in the forest and hiking through the woods. Your videos take me right there with you. Thank you for unselfishly sharing your life with us. Shonté
nice thanks Shonte
Sometimes silence speaks volumes all of it's own. I love the sounds of nature all around you, Brooke. 🙏❤
So peaceful and relaxing. Thanks for sharing, Brooke and DaWoof:)
What an absolutely beautiful place. Shelter looking good.
Ah Brooke you're such a treat.... like a cross between a dutch girl, and a bushcraft bad-ass...eating home canned peaches right outta the jar, and making a shelter. No one can say you're not well rounded!
lol
Thank you for the smile today! Love your new hideout! 😊🇨🇦
Awe, the sounds of the earth waking up. Just beautiful!
Beautiful vid, thank you for taking us there 🌞
By the way I live in Carson City, Nevada and haven't been camping for over 20 years. Used to LOVE camping and fishing, live alone, have no one, disabled in a wheelchair, isolated, very depressed. YOU REALLY MAKE ME HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE BEAR IS MY NICK NAME. THE BEARS GONE!!!!!!!
so glad you could join us!
We're never "too old" to feel the sense of accomplishment and sheer joy of building a fort! Thanks for the inspiration, Brooke ... God Bless
exactly!
I'm gonna build one as well being Campgrounds are closed here in Western, NY. I have 55 acres out behind my house with streams, so...it's fun time:) Great vid Brooke:)
~Kevin
sounds good!
???????? Say what??????
@@irislabranche4323 What makes you question her integrity?
@@irislabranche4323 I think you are barking up the wrong tree.
@@irislabranche4323 you need to explain your comment, please tell us how your being christian is relevant and in what respect Brooke needs to have some integrity? Dictionary , integrity -"the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles" , " the state of being whole and undivided". ??? Please explain. In this video all I saw was a woman and her dog enjoying and being at one with nature and demonstrating how others might also do the same by creating a place for reflection and peaceful enjoyment in these troubled times.
Very appealing. What a nice way to share a beautiful day.
Maisie is such a good dog!!! She loves you very much!!!!😻☺️😻
Love the spot beautiful thank you for sharing stay safe
Love all your videos..I love nature and would one day venture like you do , Brooke.. keep up the great work..♥️
Oh!! The sound of the peepers!! LOVE THAT! ❤️😁
Wow, thanks for totally chilling me out :)
Hey Brooke, great video! I missed listening to you talk but at the same time it was cool listening to the sounds of the twigs and leaves crunching and snapping under your feet, Maysie drinking water, the sawing of wood, the axe and nature. Can't wait to see your shelter completed. Looks like you had a beautiful day. As always, take care and be safe. See you next time.
cool thanks much julie it was a great day out!
Great video, sounds of the woods that relaxes the soul quiet time is essential right now can't wait to see the finished result. What a good girl daisey!
This was great! The sounds, and views were wonderful. Just a woman and dog and the great outdoors! Stay safe, stay well, and God Bless
Well, THAT was relaxing to watch! Your land is sooo beautiful. What a gorgeous day! As usual, thanks for sharing!
Loved that!! I look forward to when I can do that task myself, again. God bless you!
Thanks for creating another special video! I so needed this! You seem to be glowing in this one...in this beautiful oasis. Stay well.
A quiet awakening and understanding of your new property. The frogs r great, just love em! I hv a huge collection of them around my home. So no shortage of wood, lots of great future builds and adventures.
Got to tell ya my son Kyle thinks u and i could hv been sisters we r so much alike in so many ways lol. I agree with him. Thx for sharing xo
nice thanks- but this isn't our new property- still under feet of snow. this is LP of michigan
@@therealgirlinthewoods oh? I thought it was Michigan where u bought, sorry hun my mistake. With Dave up in Alaska and him not seeing it, thought it was down in Michigan, that u bought, oops!
Luuuuuuv hearing those spring peepers. Have fun out there!
There should be a "loved it" thumbs up button!!! Can't wait to see what you build on this piece of new property... I was happy to find your channel awhile back.... I also saw you on Alone .... that little cabin you and your husband built was really amazing!!! Really enjoy your videos!!!
thanks much but this is state land
Too cool As you were finishing those wonderlicious looking canned peaches I thought perfect time for a little nap. and ya did ..Oh helyea..Thanks again Brooke for the good in the woods!
Doing stuff like this keeps those essential skills sharp, and it is so healthy too!
I really enjoy your shows, trips and friends.
thanks much!
Tranquility is sometimes hard to find but you seem to attract it. Thanks for sharing it.
yes i seek it out!
I love the way your mind is always looking for ways to share the “Happy” of the outdoors with us. Thus today a beautiful video of the music of the great outdoors. Spring has sprung all around us even amidst all the chaos. Thanks for sharing😊
thanks for watching!
Good to see you out and about. I hope you and your entire family are staying safe and healthy. I had to come back to write this note and I had to mark the thumbs up. Somehow I did not mark it on my first visit. Well keep up the great job you do and keep living your dreams.
well thanks much we're all good
What a pretty spot Brook, I miss being in the woods, we are not allowed out of the city here or we will be charged , glad when the virus has settled. nice day for yourself and Mazzie girl, awesome to hear the frogs and birds thanks for taking us along so appreciated

Almost nothing better than home canned peaches. The sound of crunching leaves are great unless you are hunting deer. Enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing. Have a super grand day.
