• Make A Tarp Tent Tipi ...
Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc

You sir are one of the most inventive guys I've seen. Using a cook sheet as a stove Jack. Brilliant.
Agree, that was brilliant for sure. At least we know how-to if the need arises. cheers
@@tallcedars2310 I used an aluminum pie plate
@@chrisw5742 Another great idea, thanks!
Hello, I am watching you from Russia.
Russia is not that far away from Alaska. From Naukan (Наукан) is just about 87 km seaway to Wales in Alaska. If politics between the two countries were different, there would be a ferry or ship. ( angusadventures.com/adventurer-handbook/beringstrait/ ). Greetings to Babushka!
Thanks you two. My wife and I have been die hard tarp shelter campers for years. It's amazing what you can carry in your packs that is not to heavy and yet can build a variety of shelters to meet almost every need.
Lonnie and Connie , looking good , the stove jack was a great idea , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Greetings from Australia. It's mid -summer here, hot and humid but we have a good rain this year so no bushfires and the farmers are smiling.
it gets cold here in the outback at night and can go below Zero Degrees Celsius but nothing like Alaska.
i can handle a cold night in my canvas waterproof swag with a good sleeping bag. But there is no way i could camp in an Alaskan winter. great bushcraft skills you have and a ingenious homemade firebox. Well done.
Happy New Year and safe travels.
Its actually not too bad in the snow. Ive done it a few times Oberon and Orange. Hot water bottle extra wool blanky, give it a go you'll be surprised, but yeah it aint Alaska's cold lol
Can you show a vid of you staying in the tent?
We plan on doing so in the near future.
@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival Thanks
That’s definitely a collection of clamps . Not my kind of climate so I’d never have thought of the silicon mat . Looking good . Y’all have a great evening
Love your engineering ability Lonnie. In the coming times those who are paying attention to your video's will be better off than those who rely on the guvernmint to look after them. Thank you for showing us "how-to" so we can help those who may be in need soon. Peace from Peace Country.
Hi im sunny, i wanted to take this opportunity to tell you that you and your wife have helped me through a lot of difficult situations and hard times. i very much respect your care for things and believe everyone should try to care a little more. it is a huge inspiration to see such a nice couple enjoying life. thankyou for your time and effort, sharing what you do and educating people. i wish you both the best in this new year and hope you take good care
We as Alaskans love to watch and learn new tricks for the woods. You are never to old to learn. Thanks for sharing. If you ever plan on being in Delta, we'd love to me y'all in person.
Awesome. Thanks for the invite.
4 minutes in and 269 views already! Congrats Connie & Lonnie!! You two are great!
Great Idea with the baking mat. I would never have thought of that. The fiberglass or whatever they are made of, stove pipe things are kind of expensive. I bought one for a canvas wall tent years ago, but never put it in. I like your tarp wall tent idea. With a canvas one, you still need a plastic tarp on top or the snow won't slide off. It makes sense to make the whole tent out of waterproof tarps.
As always, this was a very good, informative, and entertaining video. Glad to see ya!
You post any videos and I will be sure to watch them. We are in full lockdown here, and my days are spent fighting covid. So you are letting me vicariously holiday, for a few minutes each time. Thank you. Stay safe.
Enjoyed watching. Thanks lonnie and Connie. Blessings
is a very crafting old man, camping is really fun, lonnie always came up with something useful it like he can read my mind
Happy New year Lonnie and Connie I tilted the wing is a wave as I came into your great state this this morning as I landed in Anchorage this stay safe and have a Happy New year
Perfect timing on this upload! Thank you so much :) having a semi bad day this just cheered me up like you wouldn't believe.
Hope you are having a better time of it now. Had a bad holiday season myself and this was just what I needed, a Lonnie video. Cheers
Sorry you had a bad day! Greetings from the Pacific Northwest! I hope the rest of the week goes in your favor!
@@XPLRNW Things are better but still need to be sorted out. Thanks from northern BC my friend.
@@tallcedars2310 I don't want to infringe on Far North Bushcraft and survival but I hope find enjoyment from my channel to my friend. All the best to you! Things will be good! Stay strong!
@@XPLRNW Will have a look at your channel as I do have a couple others I watch, but Lonnie's channel is number one in the bunch.
Lonnie helps me to stay strong during these times when the world is heading in the wrong direction, so it's great to see his video's pop up. That's when I grab a coffee and the world disappears:)
Keep getting out and find peace in the new year.
Save ya a bundle doing it that instead of buying a premade hot tent ! Great idea !
Another respite from society's noise with an enjoyable and educational video from FNBAS.
Lonnie & Connie: Great 2 part video on the DIY tarp tent. Lowe’s sells a Homax 7 ft self adhesive tarp zipper for $10 that would make a good door opening if it is durable enough. Keep up the great videos. Mark
I actually own one of those but of a different brand. I did not want to use it, at least initially since I wanted the tarp tent to be relatively simple to construct from supplies easily obtained for a minimal cost. I also wanted to be able to construct the tent in the field under cold conditions. The tape applied tarp zipper needs to be applied with both tarp and tape being at room temperature.
Really cool homeless shelter. That stove jack is ingenious.
Wow, that stove jack idea was awesome. Thanks for sharing. A very Happy New Year and may God continue to bless you both and all that you do.
Totally agree about the stove jack idea since I know that fibreglass material is what most have recommened and it's expensive.
Very nice Lonnie, I like your silicone mat jack idea and sewing it in was a great idea. I think you are going to have a very comfortable camp at the fraction of the cost of a wall tent plus you don't have to worry about mold due to wet or moist cotton. Love it. I think I'll make one of these at lower camp further back in from where I had my tent this year so as not to be visible. I'll just leave it all season.
With the tarp pieces being held together via tarp clamps, the tent may or may not be able to stand up to strong winds. You have personally seen one of my taped tarp tents using Gorilla or T-Rex tape to piece the shelter pieces together. Connie and I have been out in a severe wind storm in a tipi made using the tape method and the shelter held up great. So perhaps either method may work but with the clamped method one may need to re-clamp if high winds had been encountered by the shelter in ones absence. I do like your poly tarp sewing method of tent construction as well. I know, your sewed poly tarp tent has held up well for quite a few years now and has sheltered us comfortably through quite a few rains.
@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival I purchased 40 of these clamps and I'm thinking I should only need half. I like the taped or sewn methods just fine but It takes a bit of work to do that. I'm all about simplicity and I think your on to something here. I also like to make my permanent camps in places where the topography that is hills or trees offer protection for the tent. I am looking forward to your future videos on how this holds up and functions for you this winter. Will it shed the snow, ect.
@@aktrapper6126 Connie and I just got back from almost a week in town and the tent had accumulated about an inch and a half of snow on it. One bit of snow had slid off the roof just as I had hoped and the rest did not affect the tent any that I could see. Of course that was not much snow. I am hoping that greater weights of greater snow depths will automatically slide off once the snow weight causes it to "avalanche". We will see. Connie and I hope to go out to our cabin within the next few weeks for a several week stay. The tent will be on it's own an will either survive or collapse. We will see when we get back and like you, I am curious how it will do. I am quite certain a "heavy duty" grade tarp would hold up much better than this medium duty. Adding even another medium duty tarp on top of this roof tarp ought to really help the longevity of the tent I would think not to mention the extra insulative effect gained. One could use tarp clips along the edge of the second layer and guy it out as many times as one wishes which should add considerable strength I'm thinking.
They need a love button....
Good to see you guys
yes they do!
Thank you for the 2nd part
I was waiting for it since last year (🙂).
Lonnie and Connie , a happy and healthy 2021.
lol. Good one.
Lonnie, U And Connie Make the best of of Team. 'God Bless' Jim from Mich.
Aces on Part 2 video. I love how inventive you both are. It would be nice to see you and Connie camp out in this and she could do cooking for us too. Yay. You’re both amazing. Love watching Lonnie n Connie. Take care. ❤️🙏👌😇🇨🇦 LilliStJohn
Yes, baking sheet was a great cheap idea . Thanks. Thumbs up as usual Donnie!
Thank you for this video. I used it to inspire a shelter I made for my family during a moose hunt. I used spring clamps instead of tarp clamps. Worked really well.
Bet it felt good to warm up by the fire. Nice video, 😊
As always, thank you Lonnie. Abundant blessings to you and Connie.
I’m new to hiking/camping/survival. I can’t wait to watch all of your videos. The ones I’ve watched so far have been really informative
I always enjoy your videos. You and Connie take care of yourselves. Looking forward to your next video.
Clever! Thanks for the video. Good to see you Lonnie and your silent partner and camera woman Connie.😉
Good video, reminds me of one of Reallybigmonkey1's shelters... Thx for sharing.
Thank you Brother Lonnie and Sister Connie. I have not looked at your videos for a while. I wanted to do so more for your calming than knowledge but was great ly blessed to receive both. Your calming spirits helped me when my wife passed. God bless you and all America. Please pray for Revival. JESUS IS LORD HE IS COMING SOON.
Everything about this two part hot tent is awesome but I am particularly fond of the baking mat being used for the stovejack. That's awesome! A couple degrees bow zero is seventy degrees to cool for me, I'll wager that setup holds heat in pretty well as long as the stove is hot.
Looks great, Lonny. Those tarp clips sure are handy. Thanks!
Good work Lonnie. Nice little chill trying to use bare hands in the cold like touching metal. My feet don't like standing around either. Nothing better than a hot tent in winter
Thank you to you and your Wife for the videos and the information in them.
I am watching you from Brazil. Temperature here today stood at 84.2°F. Congratulations!!!
I love that your videos are from right here in Alaska. Gives me a better idea of what works here for our climate.
Brilliant as always Lonnie......the country engineering of the stove jack was brilliant. Don't know how you handle the cold.... but more power to you. :)
Doing a video for us at -2
My hats off to u sir !!
Working in those condition. A lot of people have no clue.
Please do a follow up video from the comfort of the wood stove In side. With a hot cup of coffee. Thank u again. Your videos make my day. God bless
Great video Lonnie and Connie. Guess the cold weather has finally hit you guys. Stay safe and much love from the South.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
You are a great asset to the survival community.
That tent does look nice and the pipe you put up to heat the tent looks great also and the heater must keep you all real warm in there. That is a good idea on a shelter and it must require several tarps though to build the tent.
Looks the deal for those conditions, looking forward to seeing the inside, working with cold hands is hard work, especially there! Good stuff, take care.
What a great channel, have learned so much over the years but never commented. Much respect and thanks.
You're genius is impressive. I'm in Florida and -2 degrees is really cold to me. Have fun and stay warm in that awesome hot tent.
Well done! This setup goes up pretty fast from common materials and serves the purpose. It can easily be strengthened and substantiated as need.
Thanks again for great ideas and good video's. Guess I need to start packing a hole punch in my bug out bag. Much thanks from Wisconsin.
Must try awesome Very frugal
Haven’t seen your videos for too long. I need to go to bed and watch the rest of this and part 1 tomorrow (later today!).
Great video Lonnie and Connie!
Nice one folks always a pleasure to watch. I couldn’t help thinking about a hog roast, would go down well given the chill.
Looking forward to those "future trips".
thank you.
Father Lonnies wonderful sermon!
Once again thumbs up before viewing was not disappointed see you on the next video
Once again you made a very informative video . Thank You !!
Repurpose, improvise and engineer ! Best wishes to you and Connie, keep up vids coming !
We love your videos! It would have been nice to see you and Connie enjoying the woodstove warming up and eating at the end of the video!
It's a pleasure to watch you and your beautiful wife's videos I learn something each time I do so thank you very much for it and happy new year
Great idea Lon. Enjoy your camp. Be well, both of you!
I always find it handy to make a small 12ft ladder . It helps with getting up high.
Merci beaucoup pour ce partage très précieux, gratitude pour votre générosité.❤❤❤❤
Proof you dont need tons of money to be comfortable. Thanks Lonnie~!
Came Together Very Well, Love That Stove Jack, You & Connie Have A Swell Day. ATB T God Bless
Great film really enjoyed it, creating that little home, look forward to seeing more 👍🙂 take care
I can relate miserable cold and hands that dont work, BTDT. BTW I'm 75 and still like your videos I hunted in colorado for 34 years, Brrrrr !!!! LOL
That turned out great Lonnie. Looking forward to the adventures you'll have in that tent.
Very cozy looking shelter!
Backcountry engineering at its best. What interior temperature were you able to achieve?
Dude... I bet there will be a part 3
I have not been able to spend much time in the tent due to time constraints but am confident that the tent will be easily warmed. If there is too much layering of temperature differences within the tent, I can easily throw another layer over the top of the tent to make it as a dual layered top. That will help considerably in maintaining the interior temps.
Absolutely Love your channel You and Connie bring a smile to my face all the time ......... I live in Hawaii so we don't have snow or coldness but we do live outdoors most of the time and tarps and fire building are a skill I must know. Lonnie you are the best Happy 2021 Alohaaaaa !!!
Such a vast knowledge of all things outdoors. Happy new year...
Looking forward to this video, just like all your vids. You & the Misses Stay Safe Stay Positive Stay Healthy Amen.

Best video i have seen for a while .Great tent on the cheap. God Bless and stay safe
Your 92 Degrees in a Campfire Heated Tent is my all-time favourite!
Been waiting for you bushcraftxman!!!!
Your videos always make me wish winter lasted longer.
I think that you and Connie are living the best life that anyone could ever hope to live. Might not be for everyone but it sure looks real nice to me. I love you guys !!!
Always look forward to Lonnie and Connie and their tips and adventures! You guys provide sanity during insane times.
Huge shout out from Skagit Valley Washington! One TH-camr to another! Great video my friend. Keep grinding on that outdoor adventure life! Stay safe and healthy and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! pnwfullstop
Hello Lonnie and Connie. Another great video! Just a suggestion. Instead of punching all of those holes you could use the foil heating duct tape. It would hold up to the negative cold temps. I have used it in many outdoor applications here in Montana where temps get down to -45° F.
A high quality "duct" type tape works really really well. The tapes that I have used and recommend for this purpose is Gorilla and T-Rex Brand tapes. I have made several poly tarp tents using the tape method to construct them and have used these tents in below zero Fahrenheit temperatures with excellent results. However the tape does need to be applied while it and the tarp material are at room temperature. Once applied correctly, the tape will hold in very cold temperatures.

Really enjoy your videos and tutorials. Will add this to our bug out know how, after practice.
Looks nice and snug there Lonnie. Thanks for sharing
Lonnie‼ great to see you again, HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your family ♥️
Just looks like fun - speaking for myself - I would certainly set things up and practice this before setting out 😁 Typically, my first 7 times of going out to a particular camping spot are just to see what I forgot to bring 😃
I am the same way. lol. I started making a list on my phone and tablet of all the items that I need to take. a different list for different types of trips. when I go on a trip and realize I forgot something, I will add that to the list. That method has ended up working really well for me. A newly created list gets refined to the point where it pretty well has me covered after a few trips. I use an app for the lists that allows me to check off the items as I gather them in prep for a trip. Maybe that method might work for you too.
I like this. I'm going to try putting this up in my back cattle lot. however, it's a little warmer here in central Florida (80) we are getting cold temps tomorrow of around 67. if I can stand the cold I will start tomorrow. lol.
Duct tape we used years ago for making Lonnie's tarp tent held up great, until the neighbours cattle got in and trampled:) Northern BC had temperatures to -40c then but it's about 15 degrees warmer here now. Hope the tape doesn't slide apart in your neck of the woods, peace from Peace Country.
Cool hot tent Lonnie like your craftiness !
Something that should be well in reach for any emergancy kit. We had a lot of homes burned out this year and not many places for people to be. Also no place that had tents avalable. Cheap enough to make a second one for someone in need. Space to sleep, cook, eat and stay warm. Very good.
Always keep some good quality tarps in your emergency kit. They'll be quite useful if something unexpected does occur (even if it's just a wind-thrown tree limb through a window etc.) and you need to fashion some type of wind-break in a pinch - or a shelter, if you are away from home. Not on your day pack, maybe, but definitely in a car and in garage/storage at home.
A fantastic quick build hot tent.

Great project, well done! Very easy to make and cost effective for sure. Will look forward to seeing it in use! Thanks for sharing. :) :)
Thanks for the part deux...would like an inside tour with the stove!
It looks good you could even do the same with canvas tarps . Then sew a stove jack into it. I have made a a frame style shelter with a canvas tarp from tractor so supply. Then sewed a stove jack in it . So every time I used the tarp system in winter I set it up in a frame . I didn’t think you were going to put a stove into it .
Wow, amazing what an active thought can do when introduced to a creative brain in a well used head. You sure made a believer of me . Thanks Lonnie & Happy New Year. Stay Safe. Thanks Brian 80
very good lonnie, this is one easy settup and cheap prospector tent.
I just bought four medium weight tarps a week ago for a very similar project....I want to build something of the sort that can be disassembled, divided up and carried in by more than one person ....My other consideration with the 4 tarps is another tipi hot tent, with a square base.....not sure what way I'm going yet.
I have an old bushcraft shelter out in the woods with a wood stove in it. LOL It's amazing how close you can put a stove pipe next to a tarp without it melting. Your stove jack is very clever. The hole punch is a fantastic idea. Take care you two
You may not have seen my "square tipi" or Range / Pyramid tent build. It is below if interested as it sounds like what you are wanting to do. I have really enjoyed my tent of that design.
