    A dead tree is a widowmaker to which Mors learned years later is not something you want to construct your shelter with, but rather something to cut down for firewood or avoid completely.

    Impressive fire build in some ways. It looks like a modified version of the Siberian log fire. Where the logs can be pushed on as the burn down. He waisted a lot of the first fire heat by not having a pile of sticks that could be immediately pull over on it so as not to waist any first heat. But this was long ago. So I'll cut him some slack. It must have take 5 people to gather all that before dark😂🥇👍

    Mors sit down and get your breath, we are not so young as we used to be, you don't have to keep up with the young ones, sit and tell us, we are not stupid we understand, get a young trainee and let them do the work as you describe what he or she is doing and why. you don't haul national treasures into the country, and if you do then you make sure they are well looked after.

    As always, there's a lot to learn from the "Old Man". I try to watch these videos several times to get a more durable memory inprint, but then go out and try it, as muscular memory makes it more solid and "automatic". If anytime I get in a really bad situation, then I'll ask myself: what would the "Old Man" do or recomend now?Thanks Mr Mors, may your knowledge and wisdon be with us for many years to come. Deep respects from Portugal

    The way I look at it, there are easier ways to heat water/food, why make it more difficult. I've seen lot of weird and wonderful methods systems and what do I do now?.........pot on coals.......because its easier, or at most a tripod.

    • @jbar3762
      @jbar3762 8 лет назад

      This is a tripod though. pot on coals is fine but if you do it long enough with the thinner pots like most of us use you'll wear through them. this takes all of 30 secs to make.

  • @billpeart
    @billpeart 11 лет назад

    I like the fact that he doesnt constantly use his tools. He knows how to use them, but only uses them as a last resort thus saving their edges. As a kid growing up in the woods I was able to light a fire in any season with out a knife or axe. Now that im into bushcraft I seem further away from that than ever. If anything I may over use my tools. Its good to learn them but also good to not always need them. When newcomers ask what knife to get, I tell them to camp without one for a year.
