Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc
I would bet that if you would list what you DON'T know bushcraft wouldn't get past 10 lines. Love your videos. God Bless you and your wife and enjoy the New Year.
Always enjoy your knack for problem solving (ex: if you can't reach high enough, lash a cord around a tree to give yourself a boost). You are the MacGyver of the North Woods. Love ya both!
Could have stood on Connie's back as she knelt on the floor.
🙈🙈😂😂🙈🙈
Love the way you include all the problems encountered and how you solve them. Brilliant. Excellent videographer too! God bless you two.
Lonnie and Connie, year after year, you speak clear and are a pure delight to hear. God bless you both!
Been watching mostly silent for years Lonnie and Connie, I want to say thank you and I hope 2021( isn't that crazy to say) is the best year ever!
I stopped this video a couple minutes in and made my son watch you make a step on that tree to lash that pole higher up! Just brilliant information that may never get used...but should be learned imo. Thank you both for taking the time to share this info. See ya in the next one. 😃
I want to go camping with you _so_ badly! Thank you for your videos, Lonnie and Connie. Watching you is like meditation for me.
I am setting in a toasty warm motel room wishing i could set around that shelter drinking one of your coffees with you two.
Thanks for sharing your time.
One of the big advantages of the Farrimond Friction Hitch is that it self-destructs with a good yank on the bitter end. A good choice, especially when the cordage is frozen stiff. Good to hear from you again!!
Solid response.
In addition to the Farrimond Hitch, if its stormy or windy, and starting losing up, go round the stake one or two more times. That will create friction, and help keep everything nice and tidy. Thank you so much for the video, looking forward to the next one. Love from Denmark.
Hi Lonnie and Connie. Thank you for Sharing. 'The rope ladder' was really impressive and the tie offs almost equally so. Thank you for explaining things so fully. Stay safe. ATB. Nigel
Wowwww, what a fantstic idea! Greetings from Switzerland
You are truly a woodland wizard!
When I was surveying we used a jack hammar pin with a sledge hammar then replaced that with a tent peg or a 4 foot oak stake ! Thanks Lonnie and Connie from NH.
Thank You for sharing your knowledge! I'm60 years old and disabled but I still love to watch "seasoned" professionals plying their craft and passing along a wealth of "learnins" to the young ones that are just getting started.
I Wish You & Yours a Safe, Happy & Healthy New Years!!!
(And may The Good Lord take a liking to ya, but not no time soon!!!)
The survival man shares a lot of useful skills. but what surprised me was that he had a very long beard. watching your video for the first time, say hello from Vietnam
Welcome to the channel and hello from Alaska.
Great to see a video from FNB, Real Bush craft in conditions most people wouldn't think of going out in.
This shelter build series looks great, looking forward to the other parts.
Here's to better 2021 for everyone.
This channel is my happy place.
You guys are the last of a dying breed , god bless the two of you I wish you best. Two of the most down to earth calm and wonderful human beings. If there were 500 million more of you we would literally have peace on earth and everyone would be happy healthy and wealthy.
Missed you Lonnie and Connie, wishing you both the best going into 2021. Don't be strangers‼😎👍God bless♥️
The best survival skills demonstraions.
I never thought about using a marlin spike to make a stepladder like that. That's great! Thank you!
Ingenius way to elevate yourself up the tree there, excellent instructions again, looking forward to part two, Merry Christmas to you both.
That is the coolest thing I've seen in awhile. I hammock camp on sloping ground and I often have this issue when trying to set my tarp ridgeline or even my tree huggers. I will be using this method quite often. (4:00)
Thank you Lonnie for sharing those videos with me. I have got the dandelion roots and now I'm going to cut them up and roast them I was always wondering how you roasted them properly now I know. Thank you so much.I have watched most of your videos and I want to continue watching every time you put out a new one you're a wealth of knowledge.
nice to see you two, as always some good solutions to bushcraft challenges. If you're looking for answers this couple has most likely got them...
Hello Conny hello Lonny
Thanks for this Video
I am not a young guy anymore but when i see your Videos i ever learned a lot
Thanks for that
All best wishes
Yours Frank Galetzka
Great video, always nice to hear you explain stuff and your wise peacefull way of speaking makes it easier to understand the instructions you are providing. Can't wait for the part 2 and see how you close the front and back.
Thank you for sharing this method of sheltering. So nice to hear from you again.
Lonnie and Connie, you are the masters of turning an uninhabitable environment into a five star resort. Can’t wait to see part two. Good to see you two.
Nice looking shelter so far, fun what can be done with a tarp and rope. Also when using a loop or sling its called Girth hitch, when using a long cord its a cow hitch or some call it a larks head. Climbers use the girth hitch a lot with webbing loops on rope. Love the videos, good to see your both healthy and well and enjoying winter.
GREAT video, I like watching these video of people camping in the snow. It's 39 degrees or just over 100 in fahrenheit in Australia today.
I always get excited when I get a notification that you've posted a new video. I had to show my father how you boosted yourself. Genius move!
A long time ago I scored a huge amount of surplus Army vehicle Canvas and I sensed up with several long strips of material ranging from 6 inches to two feet in width. I ended up putting matching grommets down their length and in addition to many other uses they make excellent ridge pole liners to protect roof tarps from wear from ridge poles made from logs with knots and bark. In addition those matching grommets make excellent hanging points
I always learn something when I watch your videos. Another great video, thanks for sharing.
Lonnie and Connie , great video , thanks for sharing , stay safe , God bless !
hello grandpa! its good to see you from south korea
You have such an awesome voice. I'd love it if you voiced a nature documentary. Its perfect
Lonnie, I know the two of you are doing the thing you love, spending time in God's creation. I really appreciate you sharing that with us. Can't wait to see how the winter camp develops.
Another amazing demonstration of how to think for yourself and problem solve. Well done Lonnie
Great to see you guys again. Hope you had a great Christmas and wish you all the "BESTEST" in the NEW YEAR.
This is good info....thanks so much Lonnie and Connie.
Missed you and Connie and your great videos. I hope you had a Merry Christmas, and may the New year be a new chapter in your life to be written with those precious things in your heart.
Keep safe always, God bless both of you.
Miss you my friends, long time without videos. Thanks for sharing... greetings from Chile.
👍👍 I love your ingenuity. Very simple but well thought out. 12F here in Ohio. Peace.
Always put a smile on my face when I see you post. I pray you have a wonderful Christmas and May God continue to bless you both.
Your voice was made for narration 🤍
Love your films Lonnie, best wishes to both you and Connie from the county of Derbyshire, in England 👍🙂
Good hearing from you. Thanks
Looks good Lonnie. A lot like a wall tent.
I SAW THAT IN A BOOK OF KNOTS AS A LARKSHEAD OR CONSTRUCTION KNOT, NOW LISTED AS A COW HITCH, JUST THROWN IN MY TWO CENTS, WISHING YOU, BUCK AND CONNIE A HAPPY NEW YEAR
Good to see you folks Happy New Year 😇
That looks like it's going to be great. Have a great Hogmanay folks. 👍
Wishing you both Joy and more adventures in the New Year
Thank you for sharing your ideas and large experience.
Yet another down to earth, informative film, by some of the good guys of this world. Wishing you and us all a better year than we have all had. Stay safe both! Cheers Wayne
Love simple, low cost DIY projects, it helps folks who couldn't afford a wall tent be able to get out there! Thanks for sharing! :) :)
Great to see a new video! Glad you guys are doing well.
Nice work neighbor! I made a 12x14 wall tent from white poly tarps I ordered online. I use it for hunting. I made a stove jack from fire proof cloth and made my own wood stove too. But I only use fire logs because I tried wood and it put holes in the roof which I had to patch.
The tent sounds awesome. There are several things you can do to minimize the sparking issue. One method is to put a baffle in the top of your woodstove firebox that would cause the gasses to have to go perhaps half way towards the front of the stove before going up and over the baffle and traveling back to the stove pipe before exiting the stove. If your stove is such that you can remove your top then you could turn your top a hundred and eighty degrees so that your stove pipe is mounted in the front of the stove and then you could put a full baffle in that would run from the front of the stove to within several inches of the back. That way the gasses could flow to the back of the stove as is normal before flowing over the baffle and traveling to the front of the stove before exiting up the stove pipe. Another method is to make a "stack robber" to place in the stove pipe as close to the stove as possible. The stack robber would need to have a baffling system in it that would cause the escaping gasses to have to go around the baffle before going back to the exit and on up the pipe. Another method is that you could make a "spark arrestor" to go on top of the pipe. The arrestor needs to be of a type that would not clog easily with soot. See the video below for my homemade version. Finally you could do what I plan on doing with my poly tarp wall tent that I am currently building and that is to exit the stove pipe out a wall at an angle rather than up through the roof. That would cause any potential sparks to exit to the side of the shelter rather than above the shelter. Any or all of these suggestions would help the spark problem.

Cool. Like a tarp cabin
Wow, you're still making videos! Awesome! I'm glad to see RUclips recommend something useful for once!
Good ideas, thanks. Lookin' forward to part 2!
Gracias por subir más videos
Thank you very much! From Ontario Canada!
Merry Christmas, stay warm. glad to see you out in the woods
Merry Christmas and thanx for a Sunday morning respite from the rest of the week.
I enjoy your teachings. Respect ✊
miss you guys havent seen videos for awhile glad your safe
Mreey Christmas to both Connie & Lonnie: Nice to see planning & forethought being brought to the winter shelter. Instead of using a see how it goes approach looks like craftmanship is going to be used. I look forward to the next installments. Thanks Brian 80
Excellent. So good to see you. Best to you both in 2021. Be safe.
Brilliant video, packed with useful information as always. Thank you
Anxiously awaiting part 2
Good to see you back at it Lonnie Happy Holidays to you and Connie.
Great video series, Lonnie! I just watched both parts and enjoyed with a coffee or two or three... ☺️ Today my Luxe Hexpeak tipi delivers!
Hi Lonnie, I made a video on my Hexpeak tipi tent. Would you mind if you have time to give me some feedback of my video/channel? I want to organically grow my channel. I don't want to "buy subscribers".
Loved the foot loop to increase your height. Smart move!
As always, a good video that offers ideas on how to do things. Thank you both and may you have a healthy New Year!
Say that looks like its going to make a very roomy and nice shelter / camp. That frame is what I like to call the three pole set up, nice for wall tents as well. I'm interested to see what you do for the ends and the stove. Liking it and can't wait for the part 2.
Yep, you and I have spent quite a few nights in shelters with this type of frame in one of our hunting camps. I have also used this type of frame in a homemade poly tarp wall tent on quite a few winter campout nights in the past.
Seasons greetings and thanks for keeping up the great videos.
Well, I look forward to part 2! I the mean time, before you head out again , please remember the snow,
Cold makes for a runny nose. Stick a nose rag in your coat pocket!
Thanks! 🙂
What your calling a cow hitch is what I've known as a Lark's head. Thanks for the super video once again Lonnie & Connie!
Yes. Lark's Head is the name I was trying to remember. However the knot is also correctly known as the Cow Hitch as well.
Yes sir. You are absolutely correct. I didn't mean to imply that you were wrong. I was in the rigging business, and that just popped out of my head.
I always learn something new with every video you post. Very grateful for the knowledge you share with us Merry Christmas to you both.
Very nice setup, very roomy.
@3:30 If you run a rope twice around a tree, you don't have to pull it tight, it will tighten itself with no risk of slipping down when you step into the loop and put weight to it. Make two loops, about a big step apart and you'll get even higher up.
@9:30 your "cow-hitch" officially runs as "lark's head" (and your "toggle-hitch" as a "marlin-spike-hitch").
Stay safe and keep up your good work. Best wishes for 2021from Germany
Yes. Lark's Head is the name I was trying to remember. However the knot is also known as the Cow Hitch as well.
That tent does look nice the way it is setup and I have a tarp designed for Winter use and another one which is designed for regular weather and I just alternate them in my backpack depending on the time of year I use them. I could carry both of them, but it would make my load even heavier though.
Thanks Lonnie & Connie! Happy New Year!
This dudes voice and delivery makes me trust him with my life. 😂
Good job and once again you show your vast knowledge of the woods and how to over come issues as they arise. Thanks for sharing with us and Happy New Year to you both.
Great video, Lonnie! That's going to be a great shelter.
keep up the vids lonnie and connie love watching you guys always good info
Happy New Year, you guys. Glad to see another episode of Far North. Looking forward to how you finish off the ends!
Ive been wondering how the two of you have been doing, and apparently the answer is fine, glad to see you and hope you had a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
👍 can't wait for part 2
Looking good so far Lonnie!
Merry Christmas and happy new years, Lonnie and Connie. So good to see your post

Glad your here..
