Traditional Bow Hunting Catch and Cook in Deep Snow NO SHELTER

- This week I head to the mountains for an overnighter traditional bow hunting catch and cook and solo camping in deep snow. I want to test out the Siberian log fire so I'm taking only my sleeping bag and pad. Since I have no shelter and the temperature is well below freezing, I construct a bed of conifer boughs to sleep on. Although not a how to video, I'm sure you'll pick up some cold weather camping and winter bushcraft tips in this winter survival video. If there's enough interest I'll do some more snow camping this winter. Overall I was impressed with how the Siberian log fire performed. It burned for about 15 hours and put out enough heat to keep me warm all night. This is a true "all night fire."
Don't forget to subscribe to the channel. We're uploading a new video each week that features one of the following topics: archery, bow hunting, bow building, survival skills, bushcraft, self reliance, primitive skills, primitive bows, hunting, camping, fishing, and a lot more!

This guys self filming skills are top level, some of the best outdoor content youll find on youtube
No doubt! 👍
Agreed 👍👍👍
it's because he was on alone and got trained
Very very good filming.. check out #fowlersmakeryandmischief
He is from Maine where I live and he won season 3 of the show alone
12:13 I really like that technique for making kindling, with the stationary knife. Never seen anyone do it that way before but it's genius
your just a bit thick
The amount of work to put a quality video like this together is extensive. Thank you.
Holy smokes clay, you got more accomplished in 2.5 hours than most people do in 2 days lol. Cut down two trees, bucked em, made a bough bed and got a grouse for dinner!! Yesssirrrr 🤘🤘🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
🏹🐦😉
It's just like being there, as you don't do a lot of silly narration. Actions speak louder than words. Great video
Had the bow set up at a pro shop. It performed just fine th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQEKUoxLWwayEDZR0NKB-5limn4MBU-2L . And I would say this is a good starting now that I could pass down to my son when he is older.But the package was missing the release and a nock was missing from one arrow.Dealing with customer support was terrible. They suggested I buy a new release rather than correct their own quality control issue because it’s to expensive for the. to ship it out from China.Update: manufacturer got back to me and resolved the issue. I retract the above statement.
You made that catch and cook look to easy. Some mad skills brother. Thanks for sharing 🤠
Out chasing wolves a few years back over by where you was bow hunting whitetail by the meadow my electrical caught on fire on my snowmobile, made it through the night with a set-up much like this. Great video and nice shot on that grouse! Great content
Nice shot on the grouse and a healthy batch of breakfast sausage! Now get back home to Liz and the boys.
Maybe knock the dust of the beard trimmers when you get home! Lol
Great job all around on this video. Thanks for sharing
Hey clay, a whole back I saw you talking about your clothes for Alone and asked if anyone knew of a good merino shemagh, well I found one. Weather Wool, small family owned company out of New Jersey makes some with an amazing merino wool, they also make some super high quality jackets
Thanks for the idea!
Great video! glad you got yourself a grouse you made that look easy, hope you used the Montreal seasoning for that meal. Love the idea of using an already downed tree for the base of the Siberian log fire
quite the cinematic production with all the piano and nature shots, really nice
Love you Clay! You changed my life bro! Thanks for showing the upcoming generation what they truly need to know to survive possible hard times.
Clay Hayes you sir are a mad man . those trees were huge. Thank for showng what a sibirian fire is. And all of the other hunting tips you show. I love this shit
Thanks Michael
I see you added a drone to your camera equipment. It really adds to your video.👍
Clay you are the real deal, and an inspiration.
No kidding! Clay is doing it like hearty people did 150 years ago and back.
@@stevedriscoll2539 Everyone was hearty 150 years ago! No snowflakes.
Finally a true survivalist ...live off what you catch...no Walmart steaks here !!!!! This is how it's done ..Fantastic vid ..cheers 😁
Many thanks
Those Siberian log fires provides with a ton of warmth.. Have been testing it out before.. Super warm and burns for a lifetime :) Love your content brother!
Hello my brother, I live in a tropical country, I think I would never get used to so much snow, congratulations brother
Mr Clay I know you go out and test these things for yourself but I'm sure you realize all the things you're teaching us and inspiring us to do. For me personally it lights a fire under my ass to go try lots of things. I'm here in west Central Florida so no snow or anything but still lots of these ideas and things can absolutely be used here too. Merry Christmas sir to you and the family 🤘🙏🎄🎄🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thanks Brian, there’s always cool stuff to learn and try. Just gotta get out there.
I'm with ya @Brian Z, what better time than now.
What better place than all of West Central Florida's places.
The cammo on those clothes is probably one of the best i've seen in over a decade!
Clay, love your videos and learned much on archery from and you got me back into learning. An axe is not a club. It is a precision cutting tool.
one cuts up the tree from the bottom of the tree. Saves the blade and reduces effort. Also have a small axe and medium axe when carrying a saw.. Just 45 years experience and still learning. :)
Now that was a fun video .. snow, no tent, and hunting your own food! It's great to watch you when I just can't get away to go bushcrafting myself. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
This just a really really cool video😎. Nothing like sleeping under the stars, even in the snow.
Excellent, all of it! Some things notable to me were the disposable lighter and air mattress. Because though you could make a mountain of pine boughs and use flint/steel doesn’t mean you have to all the time. Those kind of “hacks” are metaphorical in many aspects.
Since you have been experimenting with types of fire recently, you might want to try a Rakovalkea next (Finnish log fire)
Merino shemaugh👍👍!
I bought 4 of them before North x North closed the doors, one of my most prized pieces of kit!
Vargo BOT, titanium special forces shovel are just a few of my other faves.
Another informative video Clay, thanks.
3:18 “Achhh!” The moment you touched that tree I felt the cold on my neck :D was so funny to hear youuu give the Achh in my stead ;)
🥶
Music is enchanting.
PS. ITS BEAUTIFUL.....GREAT MUSIC ADDED
I appreciate you for repping the Backcountry Hunters and Anglers mug. Solid choice!
Thanks for another great video Clay! You should consider cowboy coffee if you want to pack light. I prefer that to instant. All you need is coffee grounds and a pot.
If a guy went and done this sort of thing often he would seriously appreciate the simplest things of life like warmth and where his food comes from. Great video ! Some excellent shots!
Just finished eating about 20 minutes ago. Started watching your video and damned if I ain’t hungry again. Thanks for the entertainment!
🤣✌
I love all your videos but for some one like me I would love it even more if you made a small travel size book on all your survival techniques and bow making so I could carry it with me and read it over and over again so I could retain the knowledge better I would buy the book in a heart beat and I'm sure many others would too you have a wealth of knowledge thanks for your videos.
Nothing like the woods in winter.
This GUY!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Oh yes, love this type of content!
Beautiful footage. Loved the drone and wildlife shots and you reading the tracks. The campfire blazing and the stars travelling. And those sausages 🤤Unfortunately, NorthxNorth is closed now.
Awesome video Clay. Pretty informative thanks for sharing brother.
This is a beautiful video. One of my faves.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The background is cold, but the video warms my heart as i wach, Wood fire food is love .....Thumbs up...:-)
Nice! I would have enjoyed more footage of the grouse cooking
Thank you for an outstanding video-this is definitely a skill worth learning.
Congratulations Clay and family. I just watched your season. Thank you for your great attitude and example. Glad to see a fellow Idaho boy win. We are almost neighbors. We live in the hills above Orofino. Keep up the great work
Thanks Bruce
Speaking from experience here. That silky Katanaboy 650 is NO JOKE of a saw! pulling it through a tree trunk is hard work!
Great video Clay! I'm actually making a osage self bow from your how to videos, its going great! Appreciate it!
Thank you for this amazing video! I can't wait for the winter to come again and be back in the mountains.
Great video Clay, VERY well put together..
I mean whole nother level better than anyone else I have watched.. (and I follow a lot.)
The cinematography and music were amazing.
Well done!
As far as the "Siberian fire" went, I was impressed with the simplicity, duration and effectiveness.
I wonder, have you tried the automatic long lasting fire technique where they build two ramps angled downward to the fire and stack logs where they will automatically roll down, feeding the fire as the previous one burns away?
I think I have seen someone try it with good results.
Anyways thanks for sharing.
Thanks for bringing us along! I enjoyed the trip. Hope you & the family had a great Thanksgiving!
Love the overnights in the snow.
one of my favorites for the past while, thank you!
Tuyết rơi mùa hè
You are a brute! Thanks for the video and inspiration
Good job Clay Pidgin.
Great job Clay! Thanks for sharing the information!
Very nice! Simple and efficient!
_sits down in snow_
“It’s startin’ to cool off.”
Incredibly cool! I don't think I could do that even though I love bushcraft and wild outdoor adventures.
I’m with you on that. I love all forms of hunting, fishing, camping but I’m sure not tough enough for this.
Love the content Clay! Keep up the good work!!
Came here after seeing you on Xander’s video. Subscribed ✅
Love it👍
I recommend having some fingerless wool gloves for winter work requiring dexterity like this. Mittens fit over top and you almost never have to take them off
Nice Video and a lot accomplished in those 2.5h daylight left. Liked the fire very much.
Weekend Stuff
Awesome video and nice touch with the drone. So cool to see the evolution of your videos, always getting better.
Thanks!
You bet!
Excellent camo pattern
Awesome video.
That was AWESOME!!
Cool Video Clay. Thanks for Sharing!
I would have missed my tea great video God bless and stay safe brother
Thank you for the video!
Looks pretty warm out, no frost on your beard. Not criticizing, just observing. No gloves. And mat and sleeping bag close to a fire, my bf would never let me get away with that!! Lucky no sparks landed on the mat or bag, heh? Looks like fun!!
Really excellent piano, very pleasant and fits the camera images.
Thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming please.
Excellent!
Awesome Video Clay !
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video, nice to see you out on an overnight in the woods.
Love the videos thank you!!!!
I make my own coffee bags (just like a tea bag) .... it works great and one doesn't have to "suffer" with instant.... Merry Christmas to the Hays clan.
Please do more of these hunting and camping videos 👍
Clay, I thought for sure you were going to pat the grouse's back and mutter something like, "Thanks for your life, brother." Just kidding! lol. But hey, thanks for keeping it so real and this primitive catch and cook was much enjoyed, especially with the soundtrack. I wouldn't mind seeing a rabbit or squirrel catch and cook in the future. Now lemme go smash that like button!
Great info...thanks bud 👍
I enjoyed the panio music backround that is a nice touch.
Awesome!!
Nice wintercamp and catch! 👍🙂
Thanks for sharing your skills 😎
Jolly good
Correctly made it is "rakovalkea", just two logs on top of each other. You have to have some support for the top log so it doesn't fall down while it is burning.
Rakovalkea burns about one hour for each thickness inch of logs. Logs for rakovalkea need to be preferably "kelo" logs, which means they are dead pine trees which have been standing for decades and dried. Tree itself is hundreds of years old.
Because these kind of trees are not so common any more (and are also valuable construction material) it is quite rare to have an opportunity to make a rakovalkea
Thanks for sharing the Siberian fire brother,will remember that, great video man
Good job on that grouse Clay. Simmer those sausages in shallow water till mostly cooked then take the lid and brown them w/o liquid on that. I make them real sausages real well cooked golden color.
Easy to use and install.
If it wasn’t you - I do apologize sir lol - nice videos for sure !!
Good stuff!!
Awesome...reminds me of my younger days...u could have used the sled as a shovel but our feet work well too lol
I like to keep the fan tail of the grouse. Great vid. Greetings from Mayberry, NC.
Thanks for watching!
Great video!
Although I don’t care for Starbucks as a company, their instant coffee is a step above the others. Most instant coffee has been brewed, then dehydrated, so you’re drinking the second brew 👎🏼. The Starbucks instant (which looks like what you were drinking) is just roasted beans ground very fine into a powder, and you just dump it in. That’s my go to for the outdoors.
I got 2 partridge(as we commonly call them here in maine) with my bow this fall. I don't say this to imply I am anywhere near your level. Just took the opportunity while deer hunting. Some of my favorite eating. Woodcock as well
