Thank Mr Harlton for giving us more of Master Kochenski's Wisdom. I saw him speaking about this super shelter before his passing. Treasure every video made. Thank you and Honor and Thank you!
Thanks Kelly and Mors for taking the time to explain the super shelter setup. Very informative! Keep up the great job!
I would only dream to be in the same space as Mors, how amazing it s to listen to his passion and knowledge.
This was the very man that inspired me. Awesome video thank you so much for sharing
He will be missed
These have so much gold! Thank you!!!
Mors always thinking and showing practical use of the materials at hand. Anyone notice the little nest Mors used in the chair to fight off the cold conduction? Nice tips on the shelter construction. Thanks
Ya! I'm learning a lot here!
Listen to the Finnish Soldiers
I have not seen anyone else stress the importance of the breathable fabric. I will keep this in mind as I build my own winter "hacienda". Thank you
So much knowledge it just spills out, he can't help it.
The quality of your knowledge, the more comfortable you are. Excellent quote. A raised bed is a key factor many people overlook. With the heat raising, just being a foot off the ground could make a huge degree difference. Notes taken. -Eric
Really loving the content and quality of information that the channel has been putting out lately! Always learning new things. Thank for the information.
Thanks Kelly and Mors!
I am blown away how much information you guys share, thank you!
Respect how you were always being patient with continuing your presentation, while Mors was always interrupting your video with an explanation on something....thanks!
As always, quality information from Karamat. Thanks for sharing!
Pure genius.
Great information!
Thank you!
I sure appreciate the knowledge and experience that you both share here. Thanks for making this and sharing with all of us.
good looking mod to the super shelter. reduces amount of saplings required so id think it would also conserve energy.
Great video as usual. I try and imagine all the folks who have had a more enjoyable and safe experience in the wilderness by your sharing of these skills. It must be a very satisfying and rewarding life. Wishing you and yours a wonderful, healthy, and Happy New Year!
Thanks for sharing your opinions and experience again!!! I wish you all and your families only the best in 2016!!! Happy new year from the heart of Switzerland, Taro
Awsome stuff, as always :)
Thanks a lot - Martin
I love your videos and learn so much each time I watch one. I want to try a super shelter once the Christmas rush is over up here in Yellowknife. Is Kelly wearing Big Bill wool pants? I love mine! Would greatly enjoy taking some classes with you. Mors is a great teacher, knowledge bank and gentlemen. Take care, fellas!
Simple and effective.
Great video, happy new year Mr Kochanski
thanks for comments, and happy new year back all!
Really instructive! Thax
many thanks...again!!!!
Thank you very much.
awesome thank you!
people can sey what they want about Canadian folks but they are surly a hearty bunch cause i feel cold just watching this, lol, thank you for the excellent information,
it's a great idea
I wonder if this would work with a hammock setup?
On the look out for durable lightweight clear poly. 6 mill construction poly is bulky. Anybody have a source or suggestion. I can't help wonder what mil Kelly used on this shelter, such a neat tight roll to start with.
... Or, you could get a 3m x 3m tarp which has reflective aluminum material on the inside of it. Pitch in any configuration and drape the clear plastic over the front opening and secure as per your video. More simplified for deployment, less bulky, and much lighter.
Kelly, are those measurements an absolute rule, on another Harlton Hacienda video (Average Iowa Guy in 2013), the measurements are 10x16' plastic and 10x10 fabric. The plastic in your video doesn't look like 16' wide between you and Mors. Thanks, Mike.
So if breathable fabric is not an option can it be omitted and use the mylar and the plasic?
Where do you get this breathable material?...I keep finding rip stop nylon under parachute material....is it cotton?
Also, have you ever or would you ever recommend using burlap for a cot-style bed? It intrigues me...
Thank you for this video. A question if I may. when you say you don't use the window if you have no fire do you mean you close it off with mylar and cloth under the plastic?
Thanks for the great question Liam!
We know the super shelter works. But of course a lot of the principals are theoretical. We have played with temperature lasers to measure the effects inside the shelter, but never the other way ha-ha.
Maybe the way to think about it is the specific design (clear poly window) is after all incorporated to take advantage of the sun or a fire. If you never plan to use the window to your advantage, then a person might as well cover it in with parachute and mylar. One could conceivably lose some measure of heat through the clear poly because as Mors suggested, you now become the glowing object (or primary heat source)
But I still think the trapped bubble of air that 'catches' your body heat, (helps with heat loss via radiation), and the fact that you are in still air, (helps with heat loss via convection), trumps the heat that you may lose through the clear poly if uncovered. Folks that take courses from us have the option of staying in our covered super shelters (no window), they are heated with wood stove, which is Cadillac!
Hope that helps.
I was just thinking, and that is dangerous, about the set up. If tie outs for the ridge line were a couple /3 loops, and ridgeline were set up with Prusiks with a couple of toggles, one could set up your ridge line, and "button" the shelter to the ridge line, and give you 4-6 presets and give you a fast set up with out exposing your fingers to tie knots.
Is there a particular way of protecting a long fire seeing that it coincides with using such a shelter in the event of a lot of snow fall???
👍👍
That "janaca band" might also make for an effective tourniquet, as long as the band was cut wide enough.
good tip, thanks!
What MIL is the plastic?
Any suggestions for where to get this size of poly? In Alberta. Thanks.
You have to cut it yourself. Look at hardware stores, paint section, also dollar stores, etc.
They carried nothing but parachute / ripstop nylon / summer time
Amazing
Are u tubers listening
Just me being curious, where does the "Karamat" in the company name come from, meaning?
Spell it backwards
Well done!
Do you use an special glue to hold the three pieces together?
no glue, just tied together at the 4 corners.
If you use tie points to connect the parachute material to the plastic drop sheet. Will there not be gaps where hot air can escape???
No, not if you do it right. Think about bunching the material in the inside and tiring it around a small object with a pinecone.
Can't quite envision this as it looks sewn, lol.
At about 13:27 of the video you can see the corner of the shelter. It looks like a bump on the corner. That is the pine cone, rock, a bundle of grass, etc. There are three layers of materials, plastic, parachute and reflective paper. On the inside of the shelter where you want the corners to be you put the rock and on the outside you would knot your string around the rock to secure all three layers. The knot we usually used is the constrictor knot. Hope this helps.
my ..! its a LOT of material!!!!!!
Kelly, I learned a lot in your class on 25 Oct, the day passed WAY too fast. That being said I have a couple questions regarding your shelter. You mentioned using candles in the shelter to supplement heat instead of having a fire going outside, where/how do you place them in such a tight area as to not burn the shelter down on top of you? 2nd if your making a double bed (2 person) would you recommend running another small tree lengthwise down the center of the bed to rest the small tree branches on. Thanks again, and I hope to have you as an instructor again... John
i don't know about janoka band but since nam I as a retired marine who served in nam have used long strips of inertube since before I was in high school ( dad was a ranger in ww2) so since the us rangers invented this thing ill keep calling it as I learned it in the early 50s long strap ranger bands
avalanche at 10:18!
Where does your air to breathe get in and the air you exhail go? Ventilation? Guess I needed to wait before commenting 🙄...lol.
Mors has turned into an armchair elitest! jk. Someone get that man a microphone.
26 and a half minutes! Should have taken 5. 7 with a couple of the nifty anecdotes.
I think hoarfrost now goes by "hypersexual frost"
"frost for hire"
I understand some of the ideas behind this shelter but not all of it. The clear plastic should allow visible light to enter but reflect infrared wavelengths (it is opaque to infrared). This is the basic greenhouse effect and what happens when the inside of your car heats up on a hot day. The glass allows visible light to enter your car or greenhouse (but not infrared). The materials inside the greenhouse or car absorb the light energy coming in and then radiates it outwardly as infrared. The glass, now, is opaque to infrared and prevents the infrared energy from leaving. You can't have it both ways, You can't have infrared passing inward through the plastic yet trapped because it can't escape. It is opaque to the passage infrared wavelengths. The plastic itself, though, heats up all the way through, and would then radiate infrared both inwardly and outwardly. This is not the same as infrared passing through the plastic.
No disrespect intended but if this is the " Harlton " Hacienda let Mr Harlton do the talking for himself.
That is Mr. Harlton doing the talking.
