Hello everyone and welcome to Backyard Bushman!
I am an IT Manager by trade and live the normal suburban lifestyle as most Americans do, but there is that small corner in my soul that yearns for that getaway to a nook in the woods, to get back to nature and create something to be proud of with your own hands that you can call your own.
Luckily, I know a great spot to go to that's not that far away from home!
This channel was created to document my efforts to build a livable and sustainable shelter from using the bare minimal of tools. I am in no way or shape any sort of expert in off-grid or primitive living, but I will take what knowledge I do know and show you my experiences and journey as I begin this great adventure.
I hope you enjoy, thanks for watching.
October update: New video finally out! Its taken me way longer to get out to the shelter this year. Now that Fall is back around I hope to get out more often.
Also dabbling in backpacking! Some ideas for that coming soon!

The End is Nigh? The shelter is really almost finished.
Cicadas, Astronomical Events, Natural Disasters, one wonders if The Revelation is being played out? Quite a lot of events have happened while putting this video together, I hope I made this one enjoyable to watch.
Again, its mostly another no-talking episode, just me in the woods working on finishing up my shelter build and a little explanation as I go along. Thanks for watching!

Changing from the cold to the warm season.

Welp, Spring has come back around once more. Our cold winter season was way too short and once again... we didn't get a chance to see the snow. I got to spend some time back out at the shelter and finally got the walls up as well as starting on the roof. Things are looking pretty good and am seeing an end soon. I'll finally be able to focus on some fun projects. I hope hope you enjoy this one a...

Hello all, I'll be continuing where I left off last time. I spent more time out at the shelter and got most of the walls done. Things are coming along well and I'll soon be able to start focusing on the door and the roof. I hope hope you enjoy this one.

Hello all, this one is going to be a little different. I hope hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It was nice to be back out at the shelter and got quite a bit of progress done on it. I ran out of materials but will make a great intro for the next episode.

I'm finally back out and making some progress on the shelter. A lot of things happening in this video, some good... some bad. I still got a lot of work to do and looking forward to getting back out now that it's starting to feel like a structure. Hope you enjoy this, thanks for watching!
72 Hour Primitive Camp Challenge
Просмотров 114Год назад
Here's to my first minimalist extended survival camp challenge. I've been thinking about doing this for a while so I decided to carve out some time from work and head out to a remote campground in the mountains for a few days. Beautiful views. Perfect weather. Free! How can this get any better? It was an enjoyable time out and I will definitely return here in the future. I hope I did okay filmi...
Dealing with nature... the aftermath of the storm.

Looks like I'll be dealing with a lot of unforeseen obstacles this time around. From filming gone wrong to a change in the landscape... oh well its part of life right? I'm continuing with the work on the shelter, and the video quality! Sheesh, sorry I can't seem to get this right :( the dang audio still isn't perfect but I'm trying. I hope to get some sort of protection soon by finishing up the...
Out of the cold! Building shelter walls.

Getting back out to the shelter after some time away and cleaning up the site again... can't wait to get started! Took some trips back and forth collecting enough bamboo poles to start on the shelter walls. That will be nice to finally feel enclosed.
There, and back... and there, again!

That sweet smell is in the air, yes it's the fall season again! After a time of adjustment going through this year, I have finally put together all this random footage for the next video. Getting back out to the shelter after months away and cleaning up the site for the build... can't wait to get started!
Where there's smoke... well, almost!

After a while of being away from the shelter, I finally had a chance to get back and continue some progress. Unfortunately there were many other critters out that also enjoyed my company. Now that it has warmed up, all the bugs are out in full swing and just about carried me away! To keep the mosquitos from having Thanksgiving Day with me, I tried out a couple different methods that would keep ...

Forming up a Stone Oven
Просмотров 112 года назад
To get started on the shelter I really need to have a way to contain a fire. This episode I am going to work on getting a primitive stone fireplace/oven built, then hopefully I can start prepping the posts for the housing frame. Should be fun! Thanks so much for watching!
Everything Successful Starts with a Good Foundation
Просмотров 62 года назад
So many references I wanted to use regarding foundations. "on a solid rock I stand...", "build my life on a firm foundation...", etc. Without stringing along four lines of titles, I simply ended with "Foundations" Anyways, I'm getting the area ready and should start building soon! Lots of ideas and projects in the works, I can't wait to get started on them. Thanks so much for watching!
Getting Started - also, an Unexpected Surprise!

Going from thoughts, to building a foundation. Some ideas are coming together and the reality of the time it's going to take to make this happen starts to show. Hang in there, it's going to be fun. Thanks so much for watching!
Terrible..
Awesome! Thanks for the comment.
Again I thought I’d see something fun seeing a renewal if something rebuilt but all I’ve seen him using his knife to sharpen one limb. Kind of boring and I enjoy this type of shows but this one well not so nuch😮
Hey there! I recently discovered these "no talking" dugout and overnight shelter build videos. The guys that make full builds in an hour long video are just amazing! It's kinda where I got my inspiration from in my last couple of videos. It takes me quite a long time to make progress as I am not able to get out there very often, and when I do its only for maybe two or three hours. Also, when I go out all I bring with me is a knife and my camera. I did this on purpose as a personal challenge but yeah, trying to build something with no tools is definitely going to take longer to finish. I thought about later on, compiling all these separate videos into one "full build" video and hopefully will be a little less boring. We'll see, but thanks for the comment! I'm still new at this so it's good to hear what people think that helps to know what to improve on. :)
Well I’ve seen him rake a couple of times, but no visual of his face or any thing else but his legs and feet
Kren..👍
