No $300 boots, $600 Falkraven pants, or $1,000 Jacket or $200 knife. Just old jeans, kicks, a coat and basic tools. 😊 Just lot of inspiration to get out there!
I also thought about that. First video i see of this guy, and he just looks so... "dad" - but like, in a good way. This is just some dude that uses what he has makes it work. No fancy stuff. This could be anyone.
Bushcraft videos did/have gotten out of a hand a bit. Over an hour long, pushing products and unreasonably expensive. This is just right. Not over produced, no self promotion, no product promotion, no sponsors, just a guy quietly building a massive shelter by hand!
A Teepee has to be the best survival structure. Wind resistant. Max floor space. Good height for walking. Easy construction if you have straight saplings nearby. In terms of work load there is no hauling logs or heavy stones. Just need an axe and some heavy cordage. Great.
and choke on smoke constantly, Huge, waste of calories, both to make it and keep it warm. Very high profile. Lots of places aint got such saplings. need a horse to haul everything.
a teepee makes no sense at all unless you have a group and either horses or a quad-wheeler and trailer to haul everything. It's a lot of wasted space, actually
@@redneckpatriot-fj2ss all you really need is some hammocks and small tarps, actually. You can be a bum anywhere, Make a raft and drift down where it aint cold in winter, Bicycle in spring to where it aint hot in summer.
Tents are just as flammable, but you can use a burner in them if yuh have enough headroom and are careful. As long as that fire is kept low it should be fine in winter. If I was cooking in the warmer, drier months I would probably do it outside!
Please check out my video on survival camping, where I build a shelter in the heart of nature. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback to help me improve in my future videos. Thank you so much for your valuable contributions!
We used to make these when I was a boy. The pine needles made a thick mat on the ground, and we'd carefully scoop up thick layers to cover the tee-pee with. We never put a fire inside though. Any fire pit was outside, in a cleared out area with nothing but dirt around it. Great way to spend some time in the pine woods.
@@phyllisarrington7436 , Yes, but time waits for no one. "Time flies like the wind.....Fruit flies like bananas" That was a great age, and time, to be young. Have a great day!
@@Wesmancan , I would never trust that type of shelter to sleep in, either. We had many different styles of day, night, and weekend shelters/forts that we'd make. Even some with chimneys and fireplaces. It all sepended on if we were down by the river, near Clay, or up in pinetrees, where it was sandy soil. There was also deciduous forest areas. Lots of fun, and options. Great area to be a kid. We even had waterfalls to swim at.
I'm a little jealous of these guys with open woodlands to play in. The woods locally are so thick with underbrush that in some places it's impassable. It's a miracle if I can find a 5'x5' patch that's plant-free to put a tent down.

I built one as a kid. Used the largest canvas drop cloth I could get. Not nearly as big as this. It lasted all spring summer and fall. Winter came and built an igloo. Really dug out an igloo. We made a mountain of snow then tunneled in. No fires in either one though.
Excellent video. No jabbering, no music, just the nitty-gritry work, and the proud owner, kneeling in the doorway. One of the very best videos I've seen in the bush craft arena. Well done.

Is there anyone who doesn't "suffer from anxiety"? At this point I'm thinking it's just part of being a human being. Maybe we don't need to constantly be telling everyone we encounter about it
When watching building campsites,I often wonder whose land they're building on.Quite often,imaginning confrontations happening from those claiming land ownership.
The last night of star gazing was spectacular. I have never seen so many shooting stars. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. Congratulations on your marriage. May you and aerin have a long happy life.
Any fella who is Canadian and looks a bit like Doug Linker has my attention right away! This is a fine style of shelter and I'm looking forward to seeing its performance over time.
The southern hemisphere winter is the best time to camp. No rain or freezing temps. As a kid I had my bed on the ground not too near the fire & I was in the land of nod in no time. If this teepee had been built for our family our camping trip would have been outstanding!
Feiner Teepee. Einfach gebaut, ohne überflüssigen Schnickschnack. Jetzt noche eine alte Decke, doppelt gefaltet als Türvorhang und der Winter kann kommen. Sieht ein wenig wie ein überdimensionierter Ameisenhügel aus. Gefällt mir!
Y'all got some nice poles growing there. Look at that woods, no underbrush. I've slept on ground like that, that ground is perfect. cushioned, somewhat insulated.
Watching this seasons “Alone”. Guy built a teepee and I was impressed. Thais why I’m watching this. Seems to be a quicker option in a pinch. Plus, great idea to paint your ax handle orange. Everyone should do that.
This is what my sister and I grew up learning! We built a smaller version of this to show Dad we paid attention. 😉 Forwarded this to my youngest son who seems to think he knows it all and could go up the mountain and stay if shtf.
Wow, I do that to; I'll lie down and make sure that my body fits and that the ground isn't too hard. And then I put my tent up around my living space 😮😊
The man is doing it the right way, in a pine forest. My ancestors built Tipi’s in the Eastern states. It was the most practical shelter back in the day. This Tipi is awesome! I think he could used a stronger cord, around the top, but his knowledge and skills were outstanding and impressive.
Man... That's got to be the most fantastic implementation of a tipi that I've seen -- the perfect balance of engineering, art, eco design, practicality, simplicity, level-of-effort to end-result efficacy -- and last but not least, adds a hobbit mound coziness to the tipi concept. Many thanks for taking the time to document and share your "savoir-faire" with the world beyond 😊
In case anyone collecting rocks for fire pit from a waterlogged depression or river bank- don't. Any water inside those rocks if heated too hot by fire can explode and sent rock shards or chunks flying like bullets. This looks quite cozy! I liked the comment here somewhere below about perhaps using mud coating to help mitigate fire risk in the event an ember goes flying. Perhaps an earthen floor too for that reason (more peace of mind if stepping out or while sleeping? Thanks so much for this amazing content! xoxo Peace and light! xoxo
lot of work and skill It would take me a full day or more to build that looks like at least 25 poles.. it works well for the location. in a pine forest. in many places you cannot find all those pine needles and moss. or the space to build one that big
Definitely a good temporary shelter and easy enough to build in a few hours by oneself or quicker with a couple buddies. Unfortunately not being secured in the ground, plus all those pine needles: it's susceptible to rain, strong winds, fire, and a lot of bugs. Good for a new nights in fair weather (be careful of sparks from the fire!). Whats good though is after it eventually topples over, it's all natural and will be home for some forest critters for years before it decomposes :)
I slightly disagree with you on the pine needles. If you have a blanket to lay over them they make for a very good bed. I have done it before. But that's about all.
Wow, this warm and cozy teepee shelter build is absolutely amazing! I'm blown away by the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this beautiful retreat. The inside fireplace adds such a cozy ambiance, and the fact that it sleeps 3 makes it perfect for a small group adventure or a cozy family getaway. I can only imagine how magical it would be to spend a night under the stars in this inviting space, surrounded by the tranquility of nature. Thanks for sharing this inspiring build - it's giving me some serious outdoor adventure goals!
I'd use a smaller version of this for a temporary shelter but not for long term. Once those needles dry out, one spark and that wigwam is going to go up like it was Gasoline. I would want a much sturdier structure for long term use. Meanwhile, this will be much warmer and dryer than your average Lean-Too.
A buddy of mine used to moonlight as a handyman, which really meant he used to cut/bush hog a lot of unruly grass and do a lot of painting. When it came time for some new tarps, he brought his old canvas ones home; great big 20x40 monstrosities and the like. We cut bamboo poles and used them as the frame for our own teepee, skinning it in those old drop cloths. We had camp chairs inside, and cots, and even the drum cylinder from inside a washing machine with the cooking grate from a Weber grill set on top. He was selective cutting a couple acres out back of his place at the time too, so we had all the wood we could possibly want. We would burn a big fire in the washing drum, light scattering out from all the drainage holes like one of those starry sky projector nightlights. When it burned to down a low fire over a big bed of coals we would roast hot dogs, and steaks and brats, someone always bringing some crazy new hot sauce or bbq sauce for everyone to try out. My favorite was brats over a cedarwood fire with a few splashes of this amazingly citrusy, spicy, sweet mango habanero sauce on top. We talked, and ate, and smoked Backwoods cheroots, and felt like grown men come fully home to the Lost Boy in each of us. That was mostly the Autumn and Winter of sometime around 2010, and those were some of the best evenings I've ever spent with friends and fellowship. What a time to have been alive... Thanks for the walk down memory lane. I hope good friends and good food find you out there somewhere.

One thing i would add is an air vent to the fire pit. Dig a trench from out side and cover it with sticks and stone so the fire burns better and doesnt use the oxygen you need to breath, also the fire will burn with less smoke.
nice aspen forest..at least no worries about fire wood if you lightly "char" your wood, it hardens it a bit...plenty of TH-cam 'how-to' videos be wary with rocks and fire, some rocks literally explode, when get hot enough, sending sharp pieces everywhere...
Du baust etwas wo ich voll dahinterstehe. Weil die indianer jahrelang die winter so überstanden haben. Anstat leder und tuch nimst du nadel und laub. Das wird sicher gut isolieren.
If he used sod as an underlayer to the needles and then mud as an over layer it would be waterproof and relatively fire retardant. He could use a door but a pretty bad ass build.
As an American watching this , these are skills many of the younger generations never learned and these will be very important as it seems many governments are falling apart. Being able to build a shelter is the difference between having a chance and dying a slow and horrible, cold death. Thank you for sharing these skills.
I'm not easily impressed by bushcraft shelters, but I am this one. GREATLY impressed. Enough so that, based on one video, I subscribed. That's not so much a simple shelter as it is a home.
One of the things that I always put in my backpack are those heavy duty construction grade black plastic bags. That tee pee was very cool, but I would have taken one of those bags I carry and placed it over the entrance. You can take another bag and use it for a ground cloth to lay on. One of those emergency blanket's with the foil on one side. Makes a great sleeping bag to roll up in. That tee pee looks pretty cozy dude. It has plenty of room, blocks out the wind and even a rain storm. Good job bro.✌️👍
I'm glad I watched this video. This is going to be my best bet if I am ever thrust into a wilderness survival situation. I could never build one of those elaborate underground bunkers entirely from the earth, but this I might be able to do.
Building and maintaining a warm and cozy teepee shelter with an indoor fireplace offers a unique, traditional way to connect with nature while staying comfortable. It’s an excellent project for those interested in bushcraft, camping, or creating a rustic retreat.
First healthy wind gust and you are out in the cold. Still very cool though. I never got this good at building forts as a boy. Maybe i will have another go at it. ✌️☺️
All those Pine needles , Crafters would die to have some of those ( side business , lol ) These were very popular , the first mobile homes , Enjoy All ! Thanks for Sharing !
Very intriguing build. I can only imagine how much time it took to make it. Simple construction materials, but a lot of time collecting the materials and making the hut... Thumbs Up!
In a woods that thick, the collection time was likely relatively short. it’s clear the foundation, based on lighting, took most of a morning. The sheer amount of shelter created by it, however is impressive.
I once stayed at Holiday Inn deluxe...suite of course and i the window facing the woods, i could see dear oit in the distance as i was drinking my cup of joe
My aunt lived in one of those almost 100 years ago. It was old and had been condemned by the local authorities but she was poor and so she and her husband lived there for 2 years in southern Canadian prairie type weather. The year they moved out the thing collapsed.

It will be a tinder box. The more you have a campfire inside that thing it will start to dry out the thatching and become even more ignitable. There'd be no way to put it out because it would be deep and smoldering you need a damn fire hose 😵,, plus that debris would slowly fall into your bedding and into your food and coffee. Not to mention the Lyme disease ticks coming right at you ✨🤠✨ you got to have bug spray or some kind of like mint oil peppermint oil and clove oil on your skin to help keep ticks off of you because they hate fumes.
My 13 year old stepson is partly a product of his generation: anxious, desperate to appear in control, and always looking for a short-cut. The other day we were in the forest and as an activity we simply started building a shelter. It immediately focussed his mind. No moaning or complaining. No asking for help. Just action. He didn't even realize he was enjoying it. On our way home I told him he'd had an experience of being, which is completely opposite to playing online or sitting at a desk in school.

This looks like a plantation. They have plenty of open space to build things in.
I'm using them for inspiration. I shall make something out of my family 30 acres of trees.

Underbrush equals biodiversity, the monoculture plantation here has little of that due to acidified soil and little light getting in.

Du baust etwas wo ich voll dahinterstehe. Weil die indianer jahrelang die winter so überstanden haben. Anstat leder und tuch nimst du nadel und laub. Das wird sicher gut isolieren.
If he used sod as an underlayer to the needles and then mud as an over layer it would be waterproof and relatively fire retardant. He could use a door but a pretty bad ass build.
Curious to know how long this took you? Sorry if this has been asked already. You’ve inspired me to make this on a smaller scale for my little boy :)
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the video!
As an American watching this , these are skills many of the younger generations never learned and these will be very important as it seems many governments are falling apart. Being able to build a shelter is the difference between having a chance and dying a slow and horrible, cold death. Thank you for sharing these skills.
Remember the Foxfire books? 😊
I'm not easily impressed by bushcraft shelters, but I am this one. GREATLY impressed. Enough so that, based on one video, I subscribed. That's not so much a simple shelter as it is a home.
meeeeeee tooooooo lol
Interesting.
Is there a difference between a wigwam and a teepee?
@@valnpaulvanorden Yes.
@valnpaulvanorden yes big difference
Big enough for two people would be fine with me!! His and hers!! ❤❤
Loved the build !! Awesome skills brother !! Im sitting in my tipi with the woodstove going watching this 🔥
Well done. Really enjoyed your video. You have great skills. From England 🇬🇧
အထူးကျေးဇူးပါဗျာ..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤..။။
One of the things that I always put in my backpack are those heavy duty construction grade black plastic bags. That tee pee was very cool, but I would have taken one of those bags I carry and placed it over the entrance. You can take another bag and use it for a ground cloth to lay on. One of those emergency blanket's with the foil on one side. Makes a great sleeping bag to roll up in. That tee pee looks pretty cozy dude. It has plenty of room, blocks out the wind and even a rain storm. Good job bro.✌️👍
Love to know where you managed to chop the green, perfectly straight non pine wood in a pine forest.
About 200 yards to the right. The poplar were broken off during an ice storm we had a couple weeks prior.
@@NatureBound seem pretty perfectly straight, uniform. How many polars came down for that?
@jimbothesailor4217 Camping at Algonquin, you are not even allowed to pick up branches to burn. Wonder if he got permission.
I'm glad I watched this video. This is going to be my best bet if I am ever thrust into a wilderness survival situation. I could never build one of those elaborate underground bunkers entirely from the earth, but this I might be able to do.
Building and maintaining a warm and cozy teepee shelter with an indoor fireplace offers a unique, traditional way to connect with nature while staying comfortable. It’s an excellent project for those interested in bushcraft, camping, or creating a rustic retreat.
Man , that was too cool ! Now I wanna go on up to the High Country and build me one . That was so cool . You made it look easy .
that saw sold me in the first 20 seconds. neat design!
Quite a bit of work, turned out good though!
First healthy wind gust and you are out in the cold. Still very cool though. I never got this good at building forts as a boy. Maybe i will have another go at it. ✌️☺️
Looks pretty good! Nice and roomy inside. Love the fireplace
❤
😊
Stunningly
Он собрал плодородия слой земли ради видео .
All those Pine needles , Crafters would die to have some of those ( side business , lol )
These were very popular , the first mobile homes , Enjoy All !
Thanks for Sharing !
Very intriguing build. I can only imagine how much time it took to make it. Simple construction materials, but a lot of time collecting the materials and making the hut... Thumbs Up!
🎉
In a woods that thick, the collection time was likely relatively short. it’s clear the foundation, based on lighting, took most of a morning. The sheer amount of shelter created by it, however is impressive.
he has a whole team helping him.... its fake af..
@@chloedevereaux1801 What about this seams as though he could not have done it himself? All of the materials were basically right there already.
I once stayed at Holiday Inn deluxe...suite of course and i the window facing the woods, i could see dear oit in the distance as i was drinking my cup of joe
My aunt lived in one of those almost 100 years ago. It was old and had been condemned by the local authorities but she was poor and so she and her husband lived there for 2 years in southern Canadian prairie type weather. The year they moved out the thing collapsed.
This is what I'm gonna build and see if I can make it winter proof and try next winter
This is a lot stronger than our leaf houses when we were kids! Great place for a couple of overnight stays at least! Very clever indeed!❤❤
In Greece there is a similar kind of shelter for a nomadic group of people who were shepherds. Sarakatsani.
Awesome work! Good to see you and your videos again!
Thanks Shlutz, hope all is good with you and Anon.
Very cool. I want one ☺️ 👍👍
Please check out my video on survival camping, where I build a shelter in the heart of nature. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback to help me improve in my future videos. Thank you so much for your valuable contributions!
A single spark from that fireplace will set the whole thing on fire. Besides that was great to watch.
It will be a tinder box. The more you have a campfire inside that thing it will start to dry out the thatching and become even more ignitable. There'd be no way to put it out because it would be deep and smoldering you need a damn fire hose 😵,, plus that debris would slowly fall into your bedding and into your food and coffee. Not to mention the Lyme disease ticks coming right at you ✨🤠✨ you got to have bug spray or some kind of like mint oil peppermint oil and clove oil on your skin to help keep ticks off of you because they hate fumes.
WHAT. I was really enjoying that. And then it finished ☹️☹️☹️. Great video. More please
Back in my days our hands were the only tools we had
My 13 year old stepson is partly a product of his generation: anxious, desperate to appear in control, and always looking for a short-cut.
The other day we were in the forest and as an activity we simply started building a shelter. It immediately focussed his mind. No moaning or complaining. No asking for help. Just action. He didn't even realize he was enjoying it.
On our way home I told him he'd had an experience of being, which is completely opposite to playing online or sitting at a desk in school.
I love the large triangular stone for the fire pit. Hopefully you can cook on that.
cool thanks pretty labor intensive but a very nice shelter although a sig amt of wind would be an issue
Never stop collecting firewood 🔥! Never!
I love this video. Not one word spoken but I could have watched more.
Watching from New Zealand, love your videos 👍 you certainly know your stuff and are very resourceful. One suggestion, (not a criticism at all) would love to see a time stamp of how long this all takes you.
Keep the videos coming.
