The Wikiup And The Rucksack - Bushcraft build

- In this video I am building a wickiup of dead spruce trees, spruce roots and moss. And a rucksack of spruce branches and roots.
I was making a wickiup at another location. I had made an underground air vent, collected rafters and debranched them. To find it destroyed. So I made this in another, and bigger forest.
My plan was to also make an air vent here, but the wickiup is between 4 big spruce trees, and there is a lot of big roots, and I didn't want to destroy them.
I use a lot of roots in the making of both the wickiup and the rucksack. I had a long walk to get here, and I was fortunate that the gravel road I walked on, had just been scraped, and it had exposed and teared up a lot of roots, so I collected the longest ones.
When I filmed the overnighter, it was more than a month later than when I covered the wickiup with moss. It had been warm and windy for a longer period, so the moss had shrunken. When filming inside the wiki, it looks worse than it is. It will hold a good downpour, a fire inside will help dry the moss, except furthest away and close to the ground.
My dog:
Musen (the mouse) is a labradoodle
She is half brown labrador and half black/white toy poodle.
Her real name is Effie, but i only use that when her hearing is bad. ;)

Mr. Soren. What a joy watch Your video again! Bravo !
Just in time for the first Don Von Gun Jr.Bushcraft Club trip of the year! The kids aren't being allowed to take tents this year, so we'll see what sort of shelters they come up with. Musen looks good. Cayden wants me to make sure and tell you 18 kids in the club last year, 26 this year. Beautiful video as usual! Good to see you this morning.
came home today after two nights solo camping to find this video was a treat. it was so worth the wait! i was getting impatient lol.
i hope the building inspector doesn’t give you a hard time like you got on your other awesome shelter!
you and bertram are the undisputed kings of bushcraft in my world. ❤
Soren👍👍 Still one of the best with an axe, hatchet or knife I've seen, Bertram is pretty darn good too. Musen loves that water, chicken too😋 Great video and camera work, thanks for the effort. That Wikiup should last, a lot of work went in to it. Shame some people destroy creation. Hope to see you again soon, stay safe.
finally! back to building again. so glad to see.
Hi Don Thanks for the awesome video. Musen looks great. She looks like she was doing a great job supervising. You are so talented.
Hello 🙋♂️. Good job 👍. Awesome hut 🛖
Amazing woodcraft skills! Greetings from the woods in Sweden!
Good Job! Thanks For sharing. 🔥🔥🔥
Nice to see you again !
This was a fabulous watch from start to finish, gutted I didn’t get to watch live but it was very enjoyable nonetheless.
Alright! Ready to watch my brother from Sweden!
✊
❤️❤️❤️ Brilliant video Don Von Gun,
Jo, "The Revenant" - Don von Gun - the Nothern Bushcrafter with a passion for "osso buco" - is in the CLUB.... hands up, hands up, pu-pu-put your hand up: I'm very Happy and for me is LIKE IN ANY CASE.
for the italians: the stuff about "osso buco" wasn't an "homofobic joke".... he realy made an osso-buco in the forest, with a pressure cooker on a camp fire, in another video
Nice and hard work again.
I love the forest you have there. Here in Switzerland nothing is flat :))
Hello my friend, good to see you out and about! 🤠
Thanks for the video Don, always like what u do!
それはドアだったんですね
ドリームキャッチャーかと思った😊
Excelente,, muito conhecimento,, uma verdadeira aula . Três nomes que adimiro na arte do mato, NAGALEIRO, BERTRAN E DonVonGun.
Nice knife (Leuku) you have there. Those knives are real tools. I personally have two of those. One is from Marttiini factory made, and the other is hand made in Finnish lapland from Riipi knives.
Superbe video 👍et 100% bio- logique.
thanks fo make it, Don 👍
Thnx for this video.
And respect.
i feel like the door hinging upward instead of sideways would have been easier on the hinge and maybe even more convenient afterwards acting as a visor/overhang to prevent precipitation getting through doorway
Приветствую старина. 👍🏚️🌲🌲🌲
Your filming& editing is always so entertaining. Consider Sundance film fest😊☝😉. Innovative
Awesome 👏👏👏👏
❤
awsome!
#saw - guard your fingers😮
Very interesting and impressive.
What dog breed is that?
Do you find that coat gets muddy and wet, and finding ticks is challenging?
I mention it because I'm looking for a good 'wild camping' dog...
Some of those I like have coats that, in theory, would be less practical than, say, a Lab or Elkhound.
Thank you for an engrossing film. 😊
👍
Who's the f**k is Don Johnson, the real Don is DonVonGun 😍🙏👍
