Solo Overnight In The Thatched Reed Winter Survival Shelter During Snowstorm (87 Days episode 25)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มี.ค. 2018
- With a Snow Storm on the way, I thought it was a perfect time to do a Solo Overnighter. So I prepared to go spend the night in my Thatched reed winter survival shelter. I packed up my gear and loaded it all into the sled and hiked out to the shelter. The storm dumped over a foot of snow in places but I was warm and cozy in the thatched reed hut. So much for survival, I sat by the fire and whittled all night and got a good night sleep on my reed sleeping mat. I cooked and egg in the ashes and coals and roasted an apple for dinner . The next day I woke up my sleeping fire that I was able to keep going throughout the night, Using my Fire banking method. This made it easy to get a fire started before even getting out of bed. Once I got up I made some coffee and stir-fry from Thrive life. They make freeze-dried meals for dinners at home but work great for camping. The weather outside might be frightful but inside my thatched reed winter survival shelter It's quite delightful!!!
I do not recommend Survival frogs machete after further use. I found it was impossible to cut anything over 3/4 of an inch. Survival Frog products are like getting the Pu Pu platter at the Chinese restaurant. Some of the stuff is really tasty but every so often you just get a rat on a stick.

I’m not a religious man myself, but it warms my heart to see you include your faith in your videos. Keep being you, man👍🏻👍🏻
marty mcfly hello
Holahan
Best thing I ever did was give my life to Jesus 🙏🙌 I don't know how people cope without him
@@paulamccarthy2177 why though? Why is it the best thing you've ever done? How does believing in jesus help you cope?
@@mykittenisablackbelt7405 I’m a better person for it and I’ve felt his presence and he’s answered my prayers
I didn't realize how old this video was until after I watched it. You seem such a gentle thoughtful soul I hope this finds you still well 2 years later in these crazy time. God bless and keep you and yours. thx for the calmness
Thank you for not being ashamed of the Savior and your love for Him!
My brother this is the second time I have watched this particular video and I didn't remember the first one that much but I can tell you how proud I am of a person that can literally pray for his food and do Bible study and pray to God and not be ashamed of it in front of all your subscribers can ensure not all of them feel the same way but I do I have great faith I always have had great faith I am not a perfect person in no shape or means but I try to keep the Lord in my mind throughout the day and I know he loves me so I could care less about what anybody else thinks I am proud to love the Lord as you are my brother you take care and as always. God bless you and your family cheers
One summer several years ago my friends and i went camping for 7 weeks at a small pond in the middle of the woods. We had a tent ,sleeping bags , lanterns coolers, food, fishing poles all that stuff. But after 3 weeks my friend that had our only vehicle hurt his back and he went home to heal so we had no way to get to town for supplies. We lasted another week with the supplies we had , then ran out of food and lantern fuel so we started foraging and living on just what we could find or catch. For two weeks we ate nothing but wild leeks, dandelion greens, the occasional sunfish , cattails or sometimes just sumac tea cause we couldn't find anything to eat. After that my friend showed up with supplies and we spent the last week in luxury. But to be completely honest, those two weeks when we had only what we could forage were the best 2 weeks i ever spent in my life. And i think it changed me. After that summer alot of the things in everyday life that used to stress me out and bother me just didnt seem as important anymore. It was only 2 weeks but living off the land taught me what was really important in life. It gave me the mindset that if something doesn't hurt your health, or effect your everyday life than its really no big deal. Whats really important is being alive , being healthy and having some place cozy to sleep at night. Everything else is just a bonus.
That is a valuable insight ,.. thank you for sharing ,..
Beast Man That is a great story. I have had similar experiences. None as long as yours. But facing survival shows the true mettle of a man or woman. It makes you stronger and a better Human being in so many ways. One time, my wife and I did a survival trek up in the mtns. in winter with no food, shelter, or sleeping bag. 4 days, 3 nites. One quart of water per person. No backpack. Bushwacking. No trail either. It was part of a survival course we took together. We were at each other's throats at first. Mostly 'cause I got us lost. One thing it taught me was humility and patience in others. We ended up getting married and have been together for 35 years. But we most certainly wouldn't be if we didn't take separate vacations.
I am going through a terrible time in my life I lost my baby boy and everything I own. I write this with a knot in my throat and eyes swelled with tears. I want to say Thank you for that comment it really hit home for me and I needed to hear (or read) something like that.
Yup just like going to prison!
7 weeks thats a hell of a campin trip
Excellent Channel, you are a Good Guy, really appreciated hearing about the Devotional Bible time too, I will support you!
God Bless!
J...
The moment you laid down and talked straight at the camera, was the most beautiful thing ever. I was so captivated by your voice. Listening to every reflection. And made me realize, how similar humans are. How we all feel the same way. How we all live of our memories and love for our loved ones. Great video. 🙏🙏⭐️⭐️
Spending time with the Lord, is a GOOD thing. Keep it up and my God bless you.
Yes sir thanks for watching!
My heart lept for joy seeing you spend time with God and praying. My devotions with God are always the best out in the woods just Him and I.
I'm ex military. I'm 60 and I still think that is FUN !!!
Thank you for your service!
Looks like great fun! Snow!
Thank you for your service 👍
Thanks for your Help your one of akind
Yeah Charles thanks for your service all us Americans appreciate you for going were you when and what you did for us,thanks so very much
Wonderful video, and I love that you put God first. I really enjoyed listening and watching you. Thank you and God bless
You’ve totally encouraged me! I’m going to start reflecting in the evenings before prayer. Speaking out loud what I can and will improve on for the next day; giving those things to the Lord instead allowing the enemy to try and torment me with mistakes during the night.
Thank you for that!! 🙏🏽
Your welcome thanks for watching!!
Enemy? You really need jesus
@@SoloEcho The enemy attacks those that are real, like Kyra - not the fake ones.
I Think Our Daily Bread is a great devotional ,been around for years. God Bless you for what you are doing for our Lord Jesus.
Core the apple , mix dried cranberries, oatmeal, and butter, put mixture into the hole, wrap in foil , put in coals
Yummy
Hi there, and thank you for the video! I noticed that you changed your endorsement of the machete because you could not saw anything larger than larger than 3/4" in diameter. I used a machete of the size you used often where I grew up, and our machetes didn't even have a saw on one side. They only have the blade. When I was a teenager working on geophysical survey crews in the Big Thicket and Atchafalaya swamps and forests, I could quickly down 4" and larger saplings with a sharp machete. I cut small, medium, and large stuff all day long, 6 days a week.
I just had to learn how to make cuts at the right angles, and to hit the spots I needed with good control. That is what is so great about machetes. They can cut through grasses, vines, canes, bamboo, and saplings. We always carried a large flat file with a coarse and a smoother side in our machete sheath, and used it often to keep the blade sharp.
Quick back country trick that you might find interesting: We had enormous, impenetrable blackberry briar thickets that were over 15-20 feet high and up to a mile or more square in size. During surveys, we had to cut through everything for a space of 6' wide and 9' high along our compass line so that the surveyor could walk trough to survey the line. We got through the thickets by cutting down 3-4" diameter saplings and cutting the tops and branches off to make a pole around 25 feet long. We laid the sapling pole against the wall of thorny canes, and began walking on the pole from the bottom to the top. As we took steps on the pole, it forced the canes down closer to ground level. We then cut back and forth from left to right as we walked up the pole, cutting all of the canes.
This was the only way that we could get through that stuff down in the deep woods without getting all torn up from the thorns, which can penetrate and hook around into just about any protective clothing. Can't wear a lot of protective clothing down there in the summer anyway, unless you like dropping dead from dehydration and heat stroke....
It took a 3 person machete crew 3-6 hours to clear a mile of that stuff.
I love your channel! Just found it! Always acknowledge our saviour he is where all our blessings come from.
Was so glad to see you take time for devotional and giving thanks to the Lord for all you are blessed with, always have my bible when I would camp, your food looked delicious.
1956lakota thank you for watching!
We love you Fowler ... your heart will heal! Many blessings❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Thank you it is!!!
Praise GOD! you're the only bushcrafter I've seen on utube who gives praise and thanks to The Lord!! Yippee!! thank you Sir Fowler! I subbed with great joy! May your ministry continue to prosper!
Amen brother in christ, its good to be thankful for what we are blessed with 🙏🙌
It was a nice little night out in the shelter Fowler...All the comforts of home, and then some!
I would be tempted to make an outside fireplace if materials were available, but your firepit
works fine. I bet that fork you bent is gonna be a primo Slingshot... Thanks for letting us hang with ya! Cheers
I love your energy and your appreciation for life. So many people revolve their lives around television and a comfortable couch or easy chair, they have no idea what they're missing... That shelter is amazing, you are a true outdoorsman , and the snow sheds right off that thing, great design! I loved watching you start the fire with 1 hand and showing how to keep the dire alive overnight, valuable encouraging lesson. Loved hearing you give props to the Lord, God bless you for that! I've been watching a bunch of channels prepping for a week long backpacking trip in the Cherokee National forest on the AT. You have one of the nearest channels on TH-cam; thanks for the lesson and ideas invaluable to me! I truly enjoyed watching every minute, only being there to join you could have made it a better experience ;)
Good to see your spirits are still high and that you still devote your day to the Lord I've been reading the comments and it seems like people are misunderstanding you but that's okay cuz they're lost and they don't know their way I don't think I read far enough but I don't see anybody that supports your honesty about the Lord and how you feel about him me being a Christian man all my life and just recently gone through a divorce around Christmas your videos are an inspiration to me not just for the survival part but also being a Christian surviving divorced I love your videos keep up the good work and God bless
A man of the earth. A man of God.
"It's the little things in life that makes it so wonderful..." ZF
FIrst. I really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing this. Especially the part with your bible time.
God bless and keep you!
Amazing, Fowler! I love that meal you made and speaking of "runny egg" you would love the Hawaiian breakfast called the Loco Moco. Bruh, you possess the spirit of Aloha. That story stick was my way of remembering all of the hikes I accomplished throughout the islands. You are a true warrior and it's wonderful to watch you in your success. You deserve all the good that life has to offer. Much Aloha to you and your family.
Alexander Weaver : do they have campgrounds on maui??
Near lahaina?? With a bus route near?? Just wondering... with "the Cov 19" around .. I might have to move into a campground REAL soon, if they don't Hurry up with ANOTHER relief check!!
ALOHA
The best part of your video was knowing you talk to The Lord and knowing you do daily devotions...He’s Worthy to be Praised. and talking about family. The video as a whole was great. God Bless you Sir 😊
I could see myself spending lots of time like this. You're a good dude Zach.. loved watching your story unfold on Alone. You have reached a level of understanding about life that most people only achieve on their death bed ("if I'd only known then what I know now...) Well, you do know it now 💓
Well said🙂
God bless you...I am 68 , I go weeks without spending g money.....God provides....love your videos young man....
Just picturing myself wholed up in a shelter like this and having a blizzard completely cover the outside just gives me chills in the best way possible...
Now this guy knows how to build an all night fire. Nice work! Thanks for the video.
I sure enjoyed this video . It was very peaceful and thought provoking. Thank you for including the Lord because without Him we wouldn't be able to have a peace Inside . He created everything .
your welcome thanks for watching
Wow that's more snow than I've seen here in 49yrs of living in texas! Watching every episode! Nonstop
That's nothing for Maine.
Love the great setup! I like the fact that you are not worried what others will think, if you talk about the Lord. Keep up the great work!!
“I’m watching every episode in this series” ad I really liked this one! Things are starting to click on all cylinders! Awesome
The black and white portion of this 87 Days was 'award winning' videography with perfect commentary. None of my many TH-cam high-end bush crafter presenters have equaled this. AND, over all this is the BEST EVER episode of 87 Days. Commerce and bush craft meld very well. Your shelter shows to very fine advantage, even in cold weather.
Thank you that night vision on the camera finally pays of then i do like how that turned out.
What an amazing thing to do to spend time with God, This was so encouraging. Bless You!
ZACH THAT IS AWESOME DON'T LET ANYONE SAY OTHERWISE AS LONG AS WE UNDERSTAND FORGET THE NEYSAYERS.
In case you see this late comment, Zach - we hope to see more of this, this coming winter.
Some of your best efforts!
Appreciate...
its the little things. that was as enjoyable as any video I have watched. the pleasure is watching the joy you express. thank you for sharing the fire blower....Semper Fi~
I've seen the Semper Fi comment before, what does it mean?
@@coachk7674 thanks, I had no idea.
First off, I like it that you're a Christian. Loved the video. God bless you and all you do.
“I was just kidding but now that I said it I want one.” Can I just say I love you?! (I’m an old married lady so I don’t mean that in an inappropriate way.) You are such an interesting person. Watching you makes me so happy!! Thank you for all the hard work you do while having fun! I’ve been watching you since Alone, but God sent me to this video tonight. I’ve been having an awful day. Thanks again Brother, for picking up my spirits.
Great video. You popped up in my Recommended so I watched since I love Bushcraft. I really enjoyed your reflections and praying before breakfast! So refreshing to see young guys sold out for Jesus!!!
And I pray God's blessings on you and your family . ( forgot to say that )

Man you are so positive. You spilled the water when you were making the stir fry and said oh well. Then you missed the soy sauce and said oh well. You are awesome.
Aside from the outdoor fishing and stuff, I like that you honor The Most High (you call Him Lord) in all you do. I like that.
Such a good video, brother. Thanks for sharing your time and energy to make and edit these for all of us. Many blessings to you and yours.

Isidro Hernandez Thank you God-bless
Knocked that spoon out fast!! Like watching your videos wish I had a nice spot to build a little bushcraft shelter
I enjoyed the fact that you spent time in devotion to the Lord Jesus and you prayed before having a meal. Jesus be with you always!
It's actually quite good when people can be free to express who they are, he did it often in the 30 days survival challenge, great stuff.
Zach is a remarkable fellow...
You have a kind spirit. Thank you for your videos! Keep up the good work and I look forward to more videos. Subscriber for life. GOD BLESS

Larruping! These hot-cakes look sooooo larruping! Thanks for the video! God Bless!!!
I do every last week of the month , even longer sometimes, being on disability I live on 770 a month. Once my bills are paid it is almost all gone by the 5th or sixth of the month. then I do without the rest of the month, with only what I could get for the month lol. Great videos
Social Security Disability caused me to live on nothing the last week of the month. My friends were horrified, it got to be routine. And I know I can do it.
It's horrible it forces you to slowly get fat I'm on it and I hope growing salad and trying this Anne wigmore energy soup and making kombucha tea at home will help
I love how he didn't even have to get out of bed 😂 to make the fire
Thank you for just being you my friend
Just simply do what you do be yourself we love you just you being you. Dont change
Love the devotion portion! So inspiring! More videos like this pleaseee!! 😁
Thank you i will and with more frequency once summer hits
87 days is amazing and after all that he looked as if he was on a holiday super healthy he is a top bloke good luck and god bless
thanks
Glad to hear someone talk about the Lord👍
Love to see a man of God enjoying nature. Have a great day and many more to come.
I love it Fowler! Especially the camp cooking!
i really enjoy your trip dude.. thanks. many blessings
May the one true God Jehovah bless you and your efforts thank you so much for a beautiful vlog
You are my long lost Brother. Everything you do reminds me of me. Love your videos. Keep making more.

For your roof you could have a removable hat thing over the tri pod that you can have on it when your not there but remove it when you are there
That is a plan in the works for one of my times out there a reed hat for rain season
Between researching your episodes of ALONE and your "30 DAYS IN TEXAS WITH CHRIS THORNE," I've been altering my backpack/camping equipment. Thank you very much for all of the ideas and adventures.
Who knew making commercials could be so fun? I want this job!
I hope you block up the chimney the next time you leave. Tie some firs together. Hoist. Save the fire pit from freezing.
ElectricalNoises I was thinking of making a little hat for the top out of reeds
An umbrella?
I was just thinking, What would you have given for an egg on Alone?
Just imagine in 20 years or so, and your Grandkids come to visit grampa and you pull out your wizard poles and tell them
the stories.
I've used a shortened machete (about 13 inch blade) for 15-20 years in the Canadian bush. People thought that I was nuts...machetes are for the jungle they said, use an axe in Canada, eh? Well along with a good knife, folding saw and small maul for splitting, I done real good out in the woods. Now I always have a machete with me, even car camping, and have never been disappointed. Great video, I love yurts!
I am so thankful to see you as a young man that you put Jesus in your life with your girls and Sara
Do you ever bring your kids up to camp.
Seems like that would be fun!
Love how you pray before meals! :)
Blessings!
Great educational video. Thx
Love following you adventures and your heart. What a good role model. Thanks
Really enjoyed your video especially when you bring God into it..I know it's 2-year-old video but I just stumbled on you and I really enjoy watching your videos and how you make things really down to earth cuz I used to do a little bit of that kind of camping myself when I was growing up.. Brian from Michigan..
THIS is the content I've been waiting for!
I know i my be able to incress the frquency of this type of upload during the summer
This is awesome. Just discovered you. I usually watch Joe Robinet. I will continue to watch.
I was inspired with your video specially for time to God the devotion time God bless brother...
thanks
Amen my brother , I make sure I have my Bible time every day, I do miss my home state of Maine. God Bless you and your family and don't ever worry about other people being negative towards you for your showing and practicing your faith.
I seriously have no clue what makes watching someone chill outdoors so interesting. Dope camsite bruh
I haven't been to that chicken barn in years. Got some really neat old books from there. We put it on the list to revisit. Thanks!
Ya go at least 2 times a year when i head up that way !!

I love your cross on your arm brother!! GOD IS SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's lovely to see someone loving Jesus and being devoted to him in everything you do! God bless you in all your endeavors
Delight yourself in the Lord and he shall grant you the desires of your heart.
Actually I have gone a few weeks without spending money because I am in fact poor. Can't spend what you don't have. I get by and am still happy.
"How many of you have gone a week without spending money" (cuts to commercial)
lol that's funny but that's TH-cam not me :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Its good to see you out having fun, and remembering to be thankful and spending time with the Good Lord.
I love the smoke and steam in the night vision. That shelter looks nice and cozy
