I like the way you encircled the camp with the mylar. I'll bet that helped considerably in the overall warmth. It is pretty amazing how warm these super type shelters can be. If you are not already aware, the three log long fire is a really great firelay for shelter heating. The three log long fire firelay has one of the best heat output to fuel consumption ratios possible.
The encircled camp makes a huge difference in the overall temperature, although sometimes can become a little bit smoky depending on the direction of the wind, as the smoke doesn't escape so easily. It is a matter of choice between warmth or smoked clothes! (I prefer warmth!) I will definetely try the three log long fire in the future! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! It is a great honnor to see a comment from you! Stay safe and have fun you and your queen!
Great video. I'm quite impressed with the difference between the outside and inside that Mylar enclosure. Have to agree that keeping the coals above the snow to reflect more heat would have made an even bigger difference, but it worked quite well as it did. Happy I had found this channel. It's been teaching me quite a lot.
I have questions! How did the plastic cover survive so many sparks? How did you close the cover so no air could escape? How did you get fresh air in while sleeping? Cheers mate for this good video and shelter idea! Absolutely useful for four or more persons.
1) The plastic is a little bit thick and it can easily survive this kind of sparks. 2) It is not an airtight construction and you could use any type of clips to hold the sides closed. 3) If you want to sleep in a shelter like this, it is good to let a little opening on both sides and keep your fire alive. 4) The idea for the super shelter comes from a specialist in survival and bushcraft whose name is Mors Kochanski. I just added mylar around the fire to keep some warmth in my yard! Thank you for watching!
You did Mors proud. Good job on the video. I wasn't sure that the heat would reach the plastic since the fire looked quite a ways away from the plastic. Good job.
you want the one way projected heat of a siberian fire lay. It need not be 2m wide at the FIRE, bro. that's a waste of firewood and effort in getting that firewood. So is the cutting of the wood into short pieces. Use a couple of Alternative Swedish fire torches to ignite the Siberian. YT has vids about both of these fire lays.
Excellent vid. I think you should have suspended the thermometer that was outside the enclosure instead of leaving it on the snow. But it gave a good approximation of the actual temperature.
those throway types of mylar blankets are easily torn to shreds by a mere 10mph breeze, if it gusts a bit. Short of -20F degrees, you dont need the enclosed perimeter when you have the Siberian fire lay. why not just kick or shovel away the snow, down to the dirt-level? You want a hammock inside of the supershelter, with it hung just 6" off of the ground (when you're in it) This keep you from losing heat to conductivity with the ground. Use clear PEVA shower curtain, (wally's) not that opague Visicleen". PEVA lets in much more of the radiant heat and it wont crack in the cold the way that constructioni plastic sheeting will.
Σε κατασκευές καταφυγίων με μη διαπνέοντα υλικά όπως αυτά υπάρχει υγροποίηση, αφού η διαφορά θερμακρασίας μέσα με έξω είναι πολύ μεγάλη. Επίσης η υγρασία από το λιώσιμο του χιονιού στο πάτωμα και η υγρασία που αποβάλλει το σώμα μας κολλάει στα τοιχώματα του καταφυγίου. Για να μειώσουμε αυτό το φαινόμενο μπορούμε να αφήσουμε δύο μικρούς εξαερισμούς στις άκρες του καταφυγίου για να υπάρχει κυκλοφορία αέρα στο εσωτερικό. Ευχαριστούμε για τα καλά σου λόγια και χαιρόμαστε που βρίσκεις τα βίντεο χρήσιμα!
This is like a validation of another nearly identical shelter demonstrated on the channel Far North Bushcraft and Survival. Compare it at ruclips.net/video/qcxu9DPRpIw/видео.html I think this has some improvements over that one. But my main point is, this and the Far North (it's in Alaska) shelter are very similar, and seeing two videos from widely separated parts of the world reaffirm it's effectiveness.
The two biggest problems in your shelter approach are the energy spent in collecting wood for heating the shelter and ignoring natural associative shelter arrangement. By selecting a pine or spruce tree to shelter under you reduce heat loss by the wind. Additional bows of spruce or pine reduces further heat loss. I speculate that your wind reducing approach took an extensive effort of time and energy. A vented tent with a candle heat source is vastly quicker to set-up versus the solution provided reducing caloric expenditure further. The true effectiveness of a candle heated tent environment needs to be explored in comparison to your presentation. Certain tents can be set-up within five minutes. I seriously doubt that your solution could provide with a five minute set-up. Survival demands a minimum expenditure of energy.

άψογο το βίντεο και γενικά το κανάλι σού....χάρηκα που σε βρήκα!
Καλώς ήρθες!

Thank you so much!
I’m so glad I live in Florida
Very Cool. Thank you.
Looks like you perfected the snow shoes I love that shelter it works good stay warm and stay safe ciao.
They work pretty good!
Thank you for watching my brother!
Credible!
Make a lot of sense, and I like your DIY snowshoes.
Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for watching!
Excellent tent; better bushcraft; best video. Thank you for the subtitles!!! Where are you from? Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas, USA. 🤠🐩🖖✝️🙏☃️👍
Glad you liked it!
I am from Greece!
Thank you for watching!
Awesome video 😁 thank you

@@outdoors-university cheers mate. I really appreciate all the answers! I'll have a look for plastic cover like this. Have a good week!
You did Mors proud. Good job on the video. I wasn't sure that the heat would reach the plastic since the fire looked quite a ways away from the plastic. Good job.
Mr. Kochanski left a large legacy!
Thank you for your kind words and thank you for watching!

when you hold a thermometer in your HADN, it records your HAND temperature, not just the air
