Thank you Brian! I think you will like my latest video, Bushcraft overnight, Tipi hot tent, my son and I are in that one as well, let me know if you like how fast the video moves along.
Thank you, I appreciate that. The raised bed helps with staying higher in the shelter for more warmth but not absolutely necessary, if you wanted to make an insulation bed on the ground that would be fine.
@@SurvivalSchoolHouse LoL, they heven't gotten rid of me yet. Still doing the math/physics thing and morning floor hockey (when CoVid doesn't interfere). Cross Country and Track keep me busy in the fall and spring. Just trying to help the next generation get ready for their futures. I am sharing your vids with the new gen so they can see where a Cromwell education can take them. I'll be looking forward to your next vid! Thank you for the sharing!
@@petekoenig8869 that is great you are still doing that, I don't know if I have told you, but I have worked with 100's of instructors over the years in survival, and you are one of the best teachers I have had the pleasure to be with out of them all, not to mention all the other college classes and courses I have been through as well. I'm not just saying that to be nice. Thank you for your commitment to us!
@@SurvivalSchoolHouse Thanks for motivation. Just a guy trying to do best by my students. Seriously, thank you for your kind words, they keep us moving forward during the hard times. Keep up the great work!
Man I always had the time of my life sharing outdoor skills and sports with my son now he is 18 only likes girls and video games . Cherished memories I reflect on often.
Great video, I subscribed a while back just getting back to view your videos and ill be here often i suspect, awesome to see your son involved he's going to have a wonderful upbringing
I like your shelter and appreciate the giant thermometer 😊 I would like to see a super shelter + fire set up that is set up and will withstand a windy, wintry overnight session that will simulate surviving in potentially terrible conditions. At least 10-20 mph sustained winds. In my mind, it would need to be a quick plow point version or one similar to the version in this video, but with extra sturdy adjustments to account for the 'joined' areas not separating easily. I keep seeing these kinds of videos shot in minimally adverse conditions. Nothing extra outside of it being a cold temperature. Fair enough, but so far there has been no plastic or tarpage slapping anyone in the face or cordage flying out of hands while trying to string a ridgeline or tie a knot. Now THAT would be more realistic and something to see. A high achievement as well if seen through and proved successful in an overnight situation.
Great point! In high winds a fire is minimal in warmth so an enclosed shelter with a tiny vent hole is key. That’s why arctic shelters are built that way and my jgloo video show those principles.
Was your shelter open at either end? I don’t quite understand how you avoid getting carbon monoxide poisoning? I am concerned about this as it seems almost every year, in my neck of the woods, some ice fisherman falls asleep in his ice tent and dies. Also, how would one deal with blizzard conditions and this shelter? I have camped in a blizzard and do not see how a fire would be possible?
Good concern, the shelter was closed off mostly on the ends to hold in heat but there is plenty of ventilation to not worry about that. Blizzard conditions are a different story, shelter site selection in the most protected area with surrounding live trees (dead ones have a higher probability of falling) to block snow and wind to allow a fire is one option. It will protect you from falling snow, just push it off if accumulation stays on it. A lot depends but, high winds and exposure are some of the most detrimental conditions, if you can enclose the sides and secure the bottom in those winds you will most likely shiver and stay warm enough to weather out the storm without a fire. If there was enough snow for a snow cave, then that would be a better option in a blizzard, seal the end with some type of plug to hold the heat and make a 45 degree vent hole and continually keep open throughout the night.
That's an option to have no sleeping platform which I would do if I didn't have the time, but it is warmer with this shelter to get higher and be closer to the rising heat coming into the enclosure.
You are such a great dad and awesome survivalist. Another A+ video! If I wanted to send you something for a challenge how would I go about doing that?
Thank you! I think a good spot for a direct message would be Instagram, same account, Survival School House
making memories there man definitely go to shelter in the winter
Made some great memories for sure, thank you for watching!
Amazing 👌🏻👏🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
Favorite video this week! Loved the father son interaction, the education and filming, loved it all!

@@SurvivalSchoolHouse will do, I'm a hot tent tipi guy myself!
Good advice about being active at night and sleeping during the day to say warm. Great video. You're kids are lucky to have such a great dad.
Thank you, I appreciate that. The raised bed helps with staying higher in the shelter for more warmth but not absolutely necessary, if you wanted to make an insulation bed on the ground that would be fine.
I just love the father son relationship
Thank you! It was such a great trip
Your kid is awesome: "i wonder if it gets 100 degrees in here... Or 2000!" He is right about that dinosaur lamp also.
Hahaha, thank you! He is hilarious
This is my favourite so far, great to see dad and son learning together.
It was probably my favorite too, so much fun.
Epic video right there. Thank you for sharing and keep up the great work!
Thank you Pete, are you still teaching? You are an inspiration for all.

And so many tips n tricks! Cheers!
Thank you for the wonderful comment! Cheers!

Thank you for that reminder, time flies and I'm sure you're son will still do those adventures again with you soon.
Kids are a Gift from God.I need IT to...Daddy and his Boy going outside
Great video, I subscribed a while back just getting back to view your videos and ill be here often i suspect, awesome to see your son involved he's going to have a wonderful upbringing
Amazing! 😘 Love that u included ur child in it, maybe he'll grow up to be as gud as u being inspired by u 👏👏👏
Thank you! I'm trying to do as much as I can, he's a good boy.
Amazing! Your children are lucky to have you as a father!
Thank you, I'm sure you do great things for your kids.
POV: There is an apocalypse but ur dad is SSH (Survival School House)
Smart kid
Yes he is!
Well done.
Thank you.

wow !!!
That's a huge thermometer , makes me subscribe .. LOL
plus you're a cool dad
Amazing ! keep it up!
Hahaha, it is a huge thermometer, thank you for the support, it was a great time.
Super Shelter awesomeness 👍🇺🇸
Thank you, it really is great!
I was about to ask about the dog
Awesome ❕
Thank you! Cheers!
Super👏👏👏🙏
Appreciate it! It's a great shelter.
@@SurvivalSchoolHouse I agree the same. We are watching with pleasure thanks
Do you have a book by any chance?
No, sorry!
Great demo. The dog would have added some heat to the shelter
Sure would have!

Personally, I would crawl under that bed if temperature really dropped
That's an option to have no sleeping platform which I would do if I didn't have the time, but it is warmer with this shelter to get higher and be closer to the rising heat coming into the enclosure.
Where is the dog?
He went home later.
annoying muzak, i couldn't watch
Copy that.
lmao 55 degrees thats nothing where i am we get -40 c/f this is a joke
It is designed for temperatures like that from the late Mors Kochanski, a Canadian survival expert. Try it out and let me know the temperature inside!
