Survive In The Wild ✔️

While I do wish that there was more snow and colder temperatures, I certainly can't complain about the weather during this trip. Some very mild winter conditions allowed me to be extremely comfortable on an overnight campout with a minimal bedroll kit. I'm beginning to explore areas for a future project I hope to begin this summer. The resources in this area looked quite promising for my needs. Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you to everyone who watches. All glory to God!

On this very windy day I stopped trailside to have a quick lunch of pancake bacon dippers. Due to the wind I opted to use a split log stove instead of having a fire on the ground. The area I was in had a lot of debris and duff on the forest floor and with the strong winds I didn't want to risk starting a forest fire. The split log stove worked great in these conditions and left zero footprint where it burned. The stove was made from a less than ideal piece of spruce wood. The log was slightly damp and some of it was beginning to rot. Despite the low quality wood the stove still performed great. I was able to fry up my bacon then cook the pancakes without trouble. Due to the moisture in the log, one half of the stove burned much more efficiently than the other half (as you can see at the end of the video). I believe the half that didn't burn so well had more moisture and was likely on the underside of the leaning tree the log was cut from. A good dry piece of wood is much more ideal for a split log stove but this was a good demonstration that the concept works even if the log isn't perfect. The pancake bacon dippers were a delicious lunch. I like this meal because it is easy to pack and simple to cook. Bacon, just add water pancake mix, and some maple syrup is all that's needed for this meal. Thank you to everyone who watches! God bless and happy trails.

On a cold snowy winter day I find myself stranded in the Canadian wilderness with a small survival kit I keep in my vehicle. I put my kit to the test to survive the night during a -20°C snowstorm. Thank you to everyone who watches! God bless.

Just a quick little spring time chat talking about a few things in regards to the channel. Let me know if you enjoyed the 'Pipe smoke and a chat' aspect of this video. It might be something I'd enjoy doing perhaps once a month or so just to answer FAQ, tell stories, and give updates on the channel. Thanks for watching! God bless.

The square spine is often highly regarded throughout the outdoors community. Today I thought I would share my thoughts and opinions on the square spine along with my reasoning for having rounded spines on my knives. If you're somebody that enjoys working with your knife a rounded spine could offer you a more enjoyable experience. Thank you to everyone who watches, God bless!

Join me as I return to the bushcraft tarp camp after nearly 9 months of being away. After a quick camp clean-up, I enjoy a spring overnight campout in the backcountry of Canada. This was a great outing that I thoroughly enjoyed. I'm very pleased with this camp and I have plans to develop it further. Stay tuned! Thank you to everyone who watches! God bless and happy trails!

Preparing for the winter, I build a small bushcraft camp. I build a natural shelter, a raised bed, and a fire pit with a fire reflector wall. My sleep kit includes two 100% wool blankets. I folded both in half, used one as my sleep pad and slept underneath the other (two layers of wool under me and two layers on top). I stayed warm and comfortable all night.

My two friends Matt and Harlan and my Fiance and I all went out to spend a few days enjoying camping in the mountains. We had a lot of fun fishing, hiking, swimming, and cooking over an open fire.

Enjoying a sub-zero night out in the mountains of Canada, I construct a shelter and bed from fir boughs next to a large fire that keeps me warm all night. Thank you for watching and be sure to subscribe!

This is the last winter building episode of the log home building series. The log home is not finished yet. I still need to chink and caulk the gaps between the logs, then create a weatherproof exterior. I will have to wait until summer when more resources are available to complete these tasks. Thank you to everyone who watches.

This is the third installment of the log home building series. In this episode I finish the remaining walls and build the door frame. Thank you to everyone who watches.

Part two of the bushcraft log home building series. In this episode I focus on building the walls. I use many dead spruce poles cut to specific measurements to create a friction-held wall system. Thank you to everyone who watches. Don't forget to give this video a thumbs up if you enjoy it. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to leave them below in the comments section.

In this video I begin a new series where I build a small log home in the back country of Alberta, Canada. This video shows the first two days of building, along with the morning of the third day. I get my temporary camp set up (which is where I will sleep until my log home is completed), build a saw horse, select a building site, and build the frame for my home during this video. I hope everyone enjoys this video series. Let me know what you think of this type of video in the comments section below. Thank you to everyone who watches.
