Bushcraft Camp in the Snow - Fire, Shelter, Axe, Cooking Fish
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- I head into the forest alone to spend time in my Bushcraft Camp. The snow arrived in a storm overnight, so I got a fire going under the shelter of the tarp roof. I cook up some fish on the fire, boil water in the billy can for a coffee using a bushcraft pot hanger. Time in the woods when the snow is around is bliss, experiencing nature and the peacefulness of bird song and ASMR nature sounds. Thankfully, camp was still ok after the snow storm, the hunting tower and ladder were still strong, both lean to shelters were still sturdy. I decided to change the firepit a little. I also show you how I sharpen my axe on my leather belt.

AZ TO YOUR FIRE PIT,
GET A METAL ( 55 GALLON DRUM )
CUT IT FROM THE "BOTTOM" UP
8" INCHES & THEN INSERT THAT
IN'2 THE GROUND. WHICH WILL STOP ANY ( ROOTS ) FROM CATCHING ON FIRE .
2nd. OPTION WOULD BE TO USE "CLAY" CUT OUT A 3'FOOT DIAMETER & LINE IT A FEW
INCHEZ THICK WITH "CLAY"...

( KNUCKLE 👊🏼 BUMP ) MIKE ......
I was wondering. Do you guys own the land you build on?
Great shelter. I love the fact it's all enclosed, and the hunting tower is an added bonus. The knife is beautiful. You're fortunate to have a friend who makes such a quality product.
Very impressed with your setup.
15 minutes in no talking than the first words he says is “that’s good coffee”. I love it. Looking forward to this winter
He'd fit perfectly into Finnish culture 😃
@@jaybea3158 ok
You don't have to explain the necessity for supporting your family. This channel provides a valuable service for those who resonate with its content. It is entertaining, educational, thought provoking and showcases man, nature and beast (Jaxx) at their best! Lol! For those who can’t understand that you have chosen to earn a livelihood doing something you enjoy, and that poses no out-of-pocket expense for them- then…they have other issues going on. Haters will hate, supporters will support. Keep doing what you do. Follow your bliss!
what a text!
really deep i have never seen somone comment like this I like it
well put Yvonne.. couldn't have worded it any better... Keep up the great work Mike !!!.. :-)
@MrAac2020 stfu
@MrAac2020 It's not finished!! Gotta start somewhere!!
Seems almost like a spiritual experience at camp. You take pleasure in the sound of sharpening your axe at your camp. You’re thoughtful and respectful about your relationship to the natural surroundings. What a pleasure to watch.
Its crazy to see that after a year and a half that you went from 300k to 1.1 million subscribers ...It just goes to show that what you're doing is working, and that people enjoy watching your honest, engaging, and informational videos.
Keep up the great work Mike.
Just wanted to say thanks to both yourself and your dad for two wonderful channels. I'm a Patreon on the TAFishing channel but have enjoyed both channels with my daughter who is 11. You've inspired us so much that we've just booked an overnight bushcraft course this coming August so we can start our own bushcrafting journey. We're both super excited.
Thanks for the "in use" review Mike, much appreciated, it gives so much more weight to a review rather than a desk top or knife show stand opinion, I hope it serves you well for many years!!
Many thanks for the incredible knife Scott! It truly rocks, I think my subs will really like the range of knives that you make and hope that they head over to your youtube channel and website to check them out. Thanks again buddy - Mike
Brilliant to see it in use Scott
yep, used , swung and walloped, as intended!!
Bomber blade, great design. Looks like it works well as a bushcraft knife. Thanks for all the work you do.✈✈✈
Wessex Blades&Bushcraft; fabulous blade
This is the adult version of having a fort in the woods. Lol.
It’s literally just a fort in the woods, not an adult version, just a literal fort in the woods
@@ellis3320 If you grew up near woods, you likely made a fort or two as a child. My comment references that. Calm down there tiger.
@@benm5913 I don't think... he was getting angry...?
Not too sure about kids these days, but back in the day me and my friends were bushcrafting forts all the time. Not too long ago we made a 20 foot long 10 feet high lean too with a bench and a fire pit. It's still fun to do it every now and then.

I live on a island thats due for a major earthquake, ill be buying the suggested supplies before that day comes.
Thank you for teaching me your skills, they will surely help me survive when the island starts to shake and goes into chaos.
For a none bushcraft survivalist or an outdoorsman, I find ur descriptions on what ur doing and why very helpful. I enjoy other buchcraft channels but I instantly subscribed to ur channel. Very well informed and obviously I do appreciate the talking. U and Joe and r the best.
I don't know how you do this without a dog. I like my own company but I'm not strong enough to do this totally on my own. Bravo to your inner strength.
He's just hanging out in the woods...........?!
Not sure why, but this, ironically, makes me feel better while watching this on my computer in my house as I microwave my dinner.
I'd like to see a time lapse of the camp from winter to summer. It would be cool to see how the camp looks!
You got me into everything camping, bushcraft, peace in the woods and everything that go's with it! I love building my bug out bag and watching you. I know this is old but it's the really good stuff! Keep it up bro, From the USA!
It is truly uplifting to see young people preserving their ancestral ways.
Hey, Mike! I am back again to enjoy your first (maybe) bug-out camp at its most developed. It is August as I am watching this and the winter scenes are refreshing! It is fine to remember the tower! Thanks for keeping your 'iconic' videos up! I did not remember how much helpful advice and technique about axe sharpening was in this one.
New type of ASMR
What is asmr? Serious question
@@williamchampagne708 I don't know how to explain it but you can look it up
The best type of ASMR
Yes! I love it!
I'm going to New Orleans for Mardis Gras 2019, my last as a resident. I'm moving to Texas in a couple months. Not too far to still visit, but still in Texas. My property is beautiful, I can't wait!.
@Devon Shirley as a native Louisiana, I think you will enjoy camping here. We are considered SPORTSMAN PARADISE. The further south you go, the more swamps and bayou's. It is a great state with tasteful cajun food and southern hospitality. You should visit Lafayette, Henderson, New Iberia, Beax Bridge. They are all in a 30 to 40 mile radius from each other. Ask about The Boiling Point - it is a mom and pop seafood place with great food. It is near New Iberia. Also a great restaurant in Henderson that is over the Achafalaya Basin...i can't recall the name of the restaurant but locals in Beau Bridge will know.
Bon voyage!
the stitching on the sheath is quit beautiful. The deep red on dark colored leather. beautiful.
I bow to your expertise. You are truly a master woodsman (as we would say in the U.S.). That camp is a work of art. 🖒👏
オーケー
So I discovered your channel about 2 months back. And mate its fantastic. I've ruddy binged on your vids. Very well made, super content and fantastic charisma. Keep em comin ;)
Thanks mate! Glad you like them
We don't mind the ads Mike. You need your sponsorship and we will watch in any case. PS you'll regret moving the firepit out of the camp. Lol.
Scott/Wessex Blades is a great craftsman, I enjoy his sense of humour too. Next up for me is one of his larger knives.
Ha sido para mí una inmensa sorpresa encontrar este canal, donde se transmite con muchísima entrega y dedicación las sensaciones vividas en tan maravillosos parajes.
Aunque no entiendo inglés, muchísimas gracias por compartirlo con todos nosotros.
Many thanks
Still making my way through, loving the updates, can't wait to catch up to your newer stuff
can't find it on airbnb
I found the link but it says there's no WiFi, not worth it.
I found it but the servants have gone to St Tropez for the winter, so not hiring.
@@ThatGuyFromMA pfft. Where I live I dont even get cellular service. I dont have wifi, TV, or a home phone.
Lol at all these comments 😂
@@TheKingjames57 you would have to have internet odr some service to watch this video and comment on it
wow i did NOT expect that knife to be that sharp. tore through the wood like they were already paper!
thanks not just the edge being sharp, it also has a partial bainite heat treat making it 10% tougher without loss of hardness, plus years of making knives gets to select appropriate bevel angle and micro edge styles,,, regards Scott
excellent craftsmanship, if i ever need a serious knife I'll definitely be looking into your stuff!
thanks!!
Lived in Canada for 34 yrs before returning to UK. Had a homestead for 10 of those years there. Man it's a lot of work non stop yr round in all extreme weather Heated with wood furnace Spend all winter logging and cutting wood for next yr Looks like fun until it's required or freeze I enjoy the shows. Keep em coming Watch for ticks. Lyme disease.
Wouldn’t change a think brother! You are blessed
Can we please take a minute to appreciate the fact that he literally placed those cameras and then walked all the way back at the start.
Always found that bizarre. If I were doing this I'd stick a go pro on a rc car and after I've walked out of frame I'd just drive my cam to me lol.
i would just throw the camera lmao
how else is a one man show suppose to get that shot?
@@burnt.norton and than how you gonna retrieve the memory card for the video ?
mark shaw wym?? and don’t take my comment seriously lol
Did anyone else not expect him to be british when he talked?
lol i thought he would be a canok since how much snow there was haha
I have seen a few clues in other vids that made me suspect , if you had a channel like this and it snowed you would HAVE to do a bunch of vids in it.
He is british
@@Plym_lb Thank you. You're name is appropriate
@@BatmanLovesRockNRoll Top possible retort.
Aluminum foil doesn't take a lot of room, works well for reheating. Add a little water to the foil, which adds a little moisture while heading up.
Siete favolosi, vi seguo sempre da quest'estate che vi ho visti per la prima volta ... io vivo in un bosco e qualche volta ho provato a fare come voi ma mai così in grande ...
I love the pot stand, that my friend is absolute genius! 👌
Keep the fire pit centrally located but adjust the roof. Pitch it like a teepee and allow a vent in the center roof. Just my opinion
Isaac Young that is exactly what I was gonna say👍🏻
Great idea..
I was thinking something similar. Keep the fire pit centrally located, raise the level of the roof and keep the pitch the same. Raise the roof above the level of the main lean-to so when the smoke rises up that high it has an escape route over the main lean-to
Your videos are by far the best out there that I’ve watched. It’s a sad deal that RUclips would do such a disadvantage to someone that is teaching a survival skill and honestly a better quality of life. Love the fact that you have been able to achieve sponsors and that your sponsors have even past the great deals down to the consumers. Hello from Oklahoma U.S.A
I think you did an amazing job I was amazed watching you it's unbelievable how you guys put that all together
Watching brings me some comfort during these times. 💓
Thank you for making the serial channel, it is peace, pure and beautiful.
That knife & leather work is AMAZING!!!!! Great video!
thanks so much!
Your cooking crane is the bomb diggity! I love it.
Looks like Scott made you one fine blade. He's one hell of a knife maker.
cheers!
He sure is!
This reminds me of Boy Scouts, through which I became an Eagle Scout. Our Scout Masters would have us pack our own trapping gear and other survival gear then leave us in the woods. Three times through out the week they would visit us and we were to prepare a meal from the forest for them and us. It was a great, rewarding, and humbling experience. At the end of the week they would rate each patrol in the troop points for best camp, meal, and survival techniques.
Thank you my woods brother. From age 5 I learned woodcrafts & survival in the bush.
You bring back many memories.
My husband and I really enjoy watching these types of videos. I came across this channel maybe a few weeks ago. I was watching you and your dad opening gifts in the wood pallet cabin, and my hubby came in the room, after watching for just a minute, said that you guys are so awesome! Same for me, I enjoy your videos from start to finish. We're from Alaska. Nice videos :)
wow love that knife!
Thank you and welcome to the Channel !
Now that's a knife brilliant videos Mike hello from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania 👍👍👍
I like the pipe idea, to fix the fire issue
You remind me of when my mon use to make huge fires when I was growing up as a kid. She would burn big piles of leaves from our yard and she would blow into the smoke like this guy does. Man I feel nostalgic
Excellent video.. The air tube for the fire pit I must say is your best option for sure
That is a beautiful knife. Classic butcher style design. Kind of a high end custom old hickory butcher knife which I'm a huge fan of as well
If it were me, I'd probably get rid of the tarp roof altogether. That way you could have your fire in the middle of camp. I think having it there is nice ambiance also. Glad you powered through the demonetization stuff last year. Glad to have found your channel.

Get your self a potbwlly stove with a chimany
Thanks for this vid !! I love all of your videos.
From an old Kansas Boy, two thoughts. 1. put in a chimney of some sorts to get the smoke above the roof. 2. I like the tube idea to channel the air into the fire. It might even work well to combine the two.
I know I would never go out and do something like this, ever, but I do love watching it.
Nice I do love this camp I'd mud the walls and put a roof over the whole thing but that's me you do you.
For the roof.
An idea could be to do a simple square roof, the same height as your main bed(green tarp): extend it out to the walls directly in front of the main bed(using the existing trees as supports). Then extend the width of the roof to where your fire-pit is currently at ( just before the watch tower); using your tarp to cover the gap in roofing so that you can have it up for snow or down for sun. Remove the fire-pit and put it past the wall near your main bed and do the triangle set up, you could potentially end up enclosing it in some way and use the triangle space as a chimney section of your camp.
Just my 2 cents
I bet you wish you had Your pallet wood Warm and dry cabin? That thing was so cute and practical it was perfect for
A destination in bad weather like this. Maybe you will put it back up. I want to build myself one for my large Backyard and when it’s cold stay in it and save all the high energy bills.
Planning to build one hopefully this spring maybe
⚘
I remember watching you build it and it's still impressive.
Hi Mike, love your channel, got no problem with the ads and sponsorship etc, I appreciate you've got to earn a living for your family, I always watch the ads in full, keep at it, pure escapism for me.
camp looks more proper with snow cover, great vid. a large tree stump has the potential to draw smoke towards it, place it on the side of the fire you want the smoke to go
I just registered to gstove and im using your code 👌 Have been dreaming of a gstove setup since i first saw it on your channel...cant afford it yet..but someday 🙌 Stay strong and keep those videos coming 👊
Thanks Robert! Hope you enjoy the stove as much as I do
finally! a video that isn't "Secret underground pool and slide crafted by ancient skill" !!
authors of these videos try to copy the content and idea of "primitive technology". maybe they just admire this type of work/craft and wanna create it by themselves
Check out TA Outdoors. There’s that and a few other channels doing stuff like this. Cabins made of pallet wood and other more feasible things.
Appreciate all your efforts..Thank you. 👍
For the smoke issue, maybe raise the end of the tarp roof farthest from the 2 shelters higher than the other end. Directing the smoke out and away from the 2 shelters.
Mike you do what you need to do. The content of your video will not change, What i would like to see you do this coming year. Is maybe make your own spoons,bowls or any other greenwood crafts. And why have you eaten your Dad's bait. You are treading a fine line young Pullen. Say hello to your Dad and tell your Mum i think she's a better fisher. Saw her on the boat nailed two ray's,your dad doesn't take her along anymore. top notch topper
I gotta say Mike right now you're the best bushcraft youtuber right now because you're a hard worker and most of all you respect your subscribers. Some other bushcraft youtuber whose name I'm not gonna mention used to be number one at least in my eyes and now when the money is pouring he became lazy he makes one video a month and uploads a part of it each week I mean that is just disrespectful the subscribers gave you a chance to do what you love and make money out of it. Long story short keep up the good work you're amazing and for me you're number one 👍👍💪💪
Curious to know who is the other Bush crafter lol
Have you thought that they may be in parts because of the length?
Probably Joe...
That is who I was thinking of
John Locke Maybe once or twice but this has been going on for months. You could count the number of actual trips and overnights on your fingers since the Fall/winter season began compare them with last year and you'll see the difference.
another possible switch, use two tarps overhead, each angled, the high edges to the center but off set with one higher than the other.....Rain falling will hit one or the other, but smoke will find it's way out through the space, even if it's as narrow as just an inch or two....
just like the roof in a long house
I spend a great deal of time outdoors,i always have. I also watch alot of videos online looking for tips and methods. I have to say that your interaction with veiwers is amazing. Asking for ideas on how to improve what your foing is a very refreshing and humble approach to things and i applaud you for it. Patience and humility are key components in survival situations and you seem to have plenty of both. 😁
Only just found this channel, so looking forward to going back and watching some of your older content, especially the stages of the camp build. but really enjoyed watching this video, great info and advice delivered well. I hope you can continue to make these as a job and thanks for the discount codes.
Gonna do this thing next spring I miss my survival skills we use to do my brother is in heaven now n I haven't done it on my own but we taught each other a lot maybe up loud n tag u
Love your videos and you should add a out house for the camp 👍🏻👍🏻
New to the channel, been looking into bushcraft a lot lately as my Dad and I would love to have another father/son hobby. Great to see some UK based bushcrafters, we just don’t really know where to go or where to begin.
Awesome vids mate!
What dramatic fire lighting skills.
اتمنئ أن أعيش كل لحظه جربتها في هذا الفديوا. شكرا لك علئ هذا التصوير الجميل وجهدك الذي تبذله من أجل أن تسعد الآخرين
Thanks Mike! Another great video. You deserve every bit of success that is coming your way and every potential door to open. Your content means a lot to all of us. Cheers!
Cheers Brandon
Can't say you need fresh air,, you got plenty!
Bet at times during the cold months,, ya miss your bed and central heat.
As far as I’m concerned you sponsor what and when you can , , great job
Its a wonderful silence în The Woods great shelter
Hey I love you videos. I like to think of myself as a survivalist myself. Born and raised in Montana. I have a 18’ Cheyenne style teepee, and the smoke was unbearable unless you sat low to the ground. I dug in and put in 6-8 mainline irrigation pipe to help with the smoke. Warm for IN the shelter is crucial. But the air tunnels from what I’ve found are the bees knees. Thank you for your videos.
Builds fire pit
Makes fire next to it
Well played
Great video. I agree the knife is a beauty. Awesome.
thanks, much appreciated!
ive seen 4 episodes now and i was shocked when you started talking in this one because ive never heard your voice before
We used to build stuff like that when children. Cool fort dude

Love your videos and you should add a out house for the camp.
I wouldn't think an out house would serve any purpose in the woods. I'm not an outdoors man, so my knowledge is limited on the subject. But, why build a structure and shit in the same place until the hole is filled and you have to do it all again? Why not just take your shovel behind that big tree over there, do what you gotta do, and quickly bury it so you don't step in it later?
It's hard to shit outside in the rain
Lmao this comment section is to much 😂

Hello mate, I have just been bought a puuko from Scott in 52100 I have carved/mutilated my first ever piece of wood into a spoon and it is still shave sharp! Awesome blades, great camp. Keep it coming.
Nice one, Scott makes epic blades!
hi there!!
Puukko? Why is there a finnish word in the middle of the centence???
Thanks for the trip, wish I was healthy enough to do it myself.
hi TA Outdoor im 13 you inspir me everyday and i like your vid so much so im gonna try to do this camp in m version bye have a good day
I've often wondered why in this type of shelter, that during the spring, that a mixture of dry grasses and mud is not put between the logs. Especially in the sleeping area and on the bed, to keep out weather, protecting your body. Using this method on your roof may work.
Yes! I missed the shelter! Thanks mike
I missed it too!
That is an impressive knife. I want one.
Any idea what kind it is?
That looks really coool !!! I know I would probably never build something like that but if I were to survive in that camp I think it would be great
I would love to see him add a bushcraft oven, there is several types of bushcraft ovens you can make, and they are all super cool.
I think I enjoy your videos more than you enjoying the experience itself ... by the way what a wonderful knife.
thank you!
good job ... the knife is a masterpiece
thanks!

The knife is shit. The video is shit. The guy is a idiot.
I feel like i was the only one really impressed with his contraption to boil water. it must've taken forever to find the correct sticks with the correct branch placements.
If you look closely they tied a couple pieces together to make that contraption.
Not really. Two Y-sticks, one normal one, and one with a hook
Just loving this Mike :)

I’d run the drain pipe for sure, keep the fire pit in the middle for warmth in the winterand keep the bugs away in the summer. Plus it would be a fun little project.
oooohhhh... bush fort! I dig it!!
