Cheers for watching!
This video is great.😍😍 I also do Bushcraft I cook in hot and dry deserts❤️🌹⚡

Cool
There's scammers using your logo to trick people up. They use a WhatsApp name and tried to tell me I won something.
Just FYI.
You're one of my favorites to watch on RUclips so I don't want them messing up your channel
Your bushcraft knowledge is truly impressive...
Thanks .
@In the Village
What agenda?
Here's something you might try, if you have a shovel. Dig a shallow trench, no more than 6 or 8 inches deep. Lay sticks horizontally across it, cover them with a layer of veg for padding, and then pitch your bivvy or shelter across that. Warmer and a lot more comfortable than the bare ground! And a thin layer of dead leaves or pine straw in the trench can make it even more insulated.
Interesting idea
@Ski if you're sleeping on the ground always dig a small moat for water drainage, so your sleeping area remains dry
Make the ”bed” before You make the ”roof” of the shelter.
Shovels are necessary pieces of gear.
The Cold Steel shovel is aerodynamic. Very well balanced weapon.
Sorta like a fox hole?
Take someone with you into the woodland and show them how to build a few shelters then see how fast they can do it without help. Preferably someone who doesn’t camp much.
I'm totally up for this if a volunteer is needed
@@davidchester429 You beat me to it. Good day, sir.
Definitely. I've done that with each my kids when they're around nine years old. They absolutely thrive upon it. At that age their minds are sponges for knowledge and stealth shelters are like a naughty grown-ups version of hide and seek.
A right of passage if you like.
Weekend away also gives Mum a bit of a break.
I recently took my two daughters and my 6 year old Grandson camping, ,The Daughters 25/22 lasted two days and wanted to go home missed there phones 😂😂😂😂😂 yep I made them leave them at home , so I took them home, but the Grandson loved it so I took him back for another 3 days . It’s great for young kids to learn a skill they soak it up .

Well done George. The best things one can give a child, other than your time, are an experience and a challenge that builds confidence.
My Grandad and my old man both did it for me as a lad and I've done it for all my kids along with nieces and nephew.
My youngest daughter, especially, really took to it and has become a true 'bushy,' literally able to get by with a small backpack, improvisation, knowledge and self confidence. No, she's not a 'tom boy', she's very feminine and a practising Pharmacologist now. Try figuring that out.
Currently in a boarding school. I miss the woods and his videos make me crave it even more!
I have that bivvy tent and it's incredible for what it is, for homeless people it would be great for setting up anywhere.
Yeah and keep them out of sight as well

If you must camp under a partially fallen tree, it’s always best to brace it with a Y branch and by lashing it to the tree(s) it’s caught in. It’d be a rude awakening if a storm came through and your roof collapsed.
Extra support is always a good idea.
Would have to be one hell of a y branch to support a tree
i would love for someone to teach me and then let me try on my own
@@carolmaplesden916 you might want to be careful going for a night in the woods with randoms from RUclips 🤣
Are you a brazier designer?
@@davidchester429 probably true 😂 lol
When basing a shelter off a fallen/dead tree, make sure it's free of termites
And spiders, and brown snakes, and scorpions, and koalas.

Always taught my daughter about this style of survival, especially trees that have blown over, the roots that have upturned is a natural backstop and I doubt its gauna blow over again so there's your shelter, just remember to stay in the tree side and not the exposed root side where further trees can come down on you in the prevailing wind direction that brought your tree down.
"Less catchy to the eye."
Doggo : let me introduce myself !
Great stealth shelters. I would never be out in the bush or anywhere without tools, but good to know how to not use tools. No body has any business in the bush without at least a knife. Good video.
05:19 "fewer" journeys, rather than more 😊
Might want to mention in future videos about paying attention to the canopy above where you plan to stay. Dead tree's that fall can kill you and it's very dangerous. Love the content
A Swag is the best for all around stealth and comfort. Light weight and packs down to a small size. I carry a Swag attached to my 60 liter ruck.
I still love my vintage green Vango force ten MK1 because it sort of does it all apart from being spacious but at 1.8kg all in the bag for a four season tent that can hack it in the windy hills, half a lavvu can make for a fairly stealthy pitch too but if I'm lugging that beast about I'm going somewhere pretty and let everyone passing through see it in all its glory
How do you avoid being totally eaten by tics when sleeping on the ground?
Last time i sleept on the ground, I found 10 tics on me when I got home :(
I'm always worried about tics even when just walking through the woods. My Mom got lyne disease and it's bad.
Does the mylar work to a useful degree?
Yes when it’s closer to your body. It really comes into play when you have a fire. It reflects the heat of the fire back onto you.
Nice shelters mike, The first one is great for hunting,the second was nice as well, survivor Lilly uses that nice shelter,and the ridgepole shelter is totally awesome,I love how your showing different shelters for different uses, great job Mike. Great video on multiple shelters🇺🇸
Hey man no one asked
Excuse me for asking but what is your name? I like watching your channel. Also where is your friend. The one that helped you build the Viking shelter. I like watching his channel too.
also love your videos, your a real big inspiration for me, I'm 15 and starting to get into bushcraft after watching you do it so thank you. Keep uploading awesome videos 👍😊
I was going to ask about what to do in the winter when all the shrubbery to use for the roofing is covered by snow. But. Yea. Just use snow...
Soy de Monterrey México y la verdad a mi me gustan mucho este tipo de videos un saludo
Love your videos and they never disappoint! Very interesting and informative!
我也想要體驗野外生活。一定是很棒的🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗謝謝你的視頻。
😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍
Awesome video. We have a really bad problem with ticks and lymes disease here in New York or at least here in the North Country so I have to be very careful laying on the ground camping it’s almost a really bad idea wich is a bummer because when I was a kid I did it all the time and we didn’t have ticks.
Good stuff mate, all very low profile too and no tools needed. Some cracking tarp shelter too Mike. Cheers buddy 👍
Cool Mike.🌳🌲
Muy buen video. Te vemos siempre con mi hermano desde la patagonia argentina y tomamos algunas ideas para nuestros vídeos (dos hermanos vivac) saludos desde el sur del mundo
I like this video. The points made are logical and "easy" to follow.
Not pointed out but the smaller, "stealth" shelters are good for keeping the shelter warmer.
Especially if a snake or animal gets in there with you in the middle of the night to share heat. Lol
quick and easy. well explained. good stuff. nice💪
I follow of both of your channels, "life of Mike" as well as TA outdoors and TA fishing. I appreciate the knowledge. I learn more each time I watch your guy's videos. I had a question, we're you in the Military? I was US Army.
That's so amazing, I think I should have tried one occasion
Gave me some great ideas, thank you !
A classic clip-show, nice one 😊
Love the adorable little dog. I get easily distracted by dogs.
A lot of "stealth camping" RUclipsrs should watch this.
Campjng?? Whats that? XD
..cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
My favorite way of camping!
As a kid I use hide a lot to see if people would ever notice me. There were places I hid that were so close to getting spotted but never happened . Could’ve ambushed easily. Have even evaded the police once bunking school.
Love your tips on building stealth shelters
I love bushcraft but wouldn't even attempt it for a stealth camp. All the rustling around, snapping sticks could attract attention plus ideally you want to be in during low light and out quickly.
Another belter as always 👌 👏 👍
Hola!!! No sé si fueron los primeros pero si estoy seguro son los mejores. Todos los que vinieron después son copias de las copias de las copias. Saludos!!!
Great video. Like to see more like this. 🇺🇸
Thanks Mike. 👍😁
Thank you so much for video😉👌🏻👍🏻 perfect working
I find it all very beautiful and seductive. the only thing that often stops me is the danger of a tick when I see leaves or sleep in the forest.
First off Mike, I absolutely love your content! I've been watching your stuff for years. I always joke with my wife that some of your silent build videos (the no talking, just building and such) are my version of manly ASMR haha.
Secondly! I've been meaning to ask, kind of a random question, but what brand are your pants? They look perfect for this kind of work and I've been trying to find something that can easily withstand this environment for my own builds and outdoor work. Much love from across the pond! Keep up the great content!!
It's trousers in the UK.; 'pants' are men's underwear ‒ Y-fronts, boxers etc ‒ unless you really fancy knowing what kinky underwear he's wearing. xx
Great video bud keep em coming 👍. Getting ready to head out on another kayaking, camping trip. Going to be a wet one because of rain maybe it will cool it down some. Stay safe and be well brother. Strength and Honor... 👊 🤙 🍻
Sounds good - enjoy your trip!
@@TAOutdoors scam Alert ⚠️ WHATSAPP.
What a nice video, thanks! I especially loved the shelters without tools, in theory i know its possible but it was nice seeing you build them!
Love these tutorials. It supplements my military SERE training!,
Love this kind of video 👍
Infantry scrape a line inside the Hooch around 2 inches 50 mm deep to prevent water running inside
Can you do a 10 tips for backpacking and/or 10 helpful tips when going backpacking
Very useful video thank you
Awesome video ! Nice ideas !! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍
Cheers Mike great stuff
Expert skill 👍
Does this work in the rainforest?
Not if there are poisonous snakes and bugs!
Great video Mike. Always a pleasure learning from you brother. Much love and respect from the U.S.
Cheers!
Thanks for this great video! 🤗
I’ve learnt a lot from you
Thanks for sharing your great ideas
Excellent vid, mate! 👍 Suprising what you can make/build - with a little know how - from the the forest/wood thats around you!
This guy si cool, now, if you wish to know how some of these things are used in the real world, I have a few content from my last camping.
Natural environment is best shelters for me. Great tips of builds here, Mike! Loved it. 👋🇱🇹
Some really great tips. Thanks much!
It strikes me that with the c fly shelter, ground elevation is an issue. If the rain starts coming down, you want the runoff to head away from your groundsheet.

Who needs this? Ever?
@lostinthedesert-hp4bw Sardine housed people who live in apartments and want to do some stealth loitering in the woods safe from Karen's
Thanks for making these videos, I do appreciate it
There seems to be a lot of emphasis on stealth shelters, what is there to hide from ? perhaps it should be just shelters as we say here in NZ. Stealth gives the impression that every one is on the run in the UK. In the military I can understand, in civvie street ? Perhaps there are to many restrictions in the UK as to where you can and can not camp. enjoyed the video ATB Cheers from the mountains of NZ 😀😀
"Wildcamping" is illegal in most of England and Wales.
@@BadgerBotherer1 Cheers for the reply. I don't think that I could live with such restrictions, would drive me crackers.
Terbaik👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good stuff!
Great info 👍 I'll remember these tips 👍 thanks for the video
It would be so fun to spend a few years riding train cars and building stealth shelters in the woods all over the country. Too bad my window of opportunity for doing something like that closed years ago.
Pounding in a stake with a hatchet, axe, or mallet advertises your presence & location for about a mile around. That’s more than 3 square miles! So much for stealth.

I also want to watch about higlubs (on the ice) Mike.
Thank you , Mike .

what pouch do you use for your knife and tool sharpening kit in your video "Hobbit Tent Camping with a Woodstove - Bushcraft, Knife, Backpack | Early Winter Camp" at 27:10 minutes ?
This video is great.😍😍 I also do Bushcraft I cook in hot and dry deserts❤️🌹⚡
Another great video Mike, thanks
supper geil
Warning do not sleep under a fallen tree it may fall and trap or injure you make sure you stay to the side,if you can't lift it ,don't sleep under it
They also drip water directly underneath in the rain, so just build to the side regardless.
That Jack Russell will give you away 100% positive LOL
Stealth camping tips... yes indeed! But you missed location. Glens are no good for promoting invisibility hehe, huge fires tend to be easily spotted. Same goes for space blankets. The shelters are grand and yes, the vid is excellent for demonstrating how to build them but as any real estate salesman would say: Location, location, location! ❤😁
Really cool but 2 things I wouldn't do is use an old dead tree for a shelter and I wouldn't use moss on my shelter.
If you're gonna use a dead tree for a shelter, make sure it's not old because the older ones can be infested.
As for moss, worms love the stuff. It would be raining spaghetti all night. I'd wait a day or 2 before using the moss method if you really want to go that route.
RAD!
Here's something for other outdoorsman's to try find a green top either a giant bush or green brush tree that hasn't green brushes low to the ground grab other tree that's fallen on the ground that still has leaf's the only issue with stealth camping is the fire once it's puffins smoke everybody can find you and I've done plenty of stealth camping even in suburban neighborhoods sometimes in between giant wooden privacy fence that has a gap between them and when there's a gap that's big enough for you to slide in and have green cover sometimes the tree leaves is all you need because they block all kinds of rain and provide camouflage and some really big bushes out there can be so big that you can hide inside of them and have room enough to walk around in
Cute
The thumbnail is how I build my most invisible hunting blinds for rifle hunting
nice video
Axe and hatchet skills!
Thermal image devices are now cheap and easily available, so the camouflage needs to blend in thermally as well as visibly.
The remains of any fire will be detectable for hours too.
This vid is good but please do another covering thermal camouflage. How good is a survival blanket for example?
Got a sub to TA Fishing. Say "EHLow!!" to your family!!! I think you're right. Its prudent to combine man made and natural materials for best results. Hope your all okay over there!! Off to learn some fishing!! Cheers!! ✝️💜🙏🌎🕊️😎👍
Cheers!
People need to conceal that black triangle. Trim branches 2 to 3 feet around it with leaves.
Step back 10 feet to visualize. Step back 20 feet and modify. Leave little gaps so you can see the enemy but they cannot see you. There is not much more unnatural than a big black straight edged triangle in the wild. I like to use binder clips to hang branches to cover mine.
Dobar govor i video...
good stuff thx
I see one of your programme s a while back on how you made a plant fertilizer be nice to know how you prepared it thank you I fished with your dad yrs ago down at Eastbourne and Tony kirage
alpine with a hootchie is the best single shelter
Hi! You've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi 😃 I hope my compliment is appreciated.
If you are averse to spiders, bugs and dirty grime and mud, think about setting up a covered hammock. That's much cleaner, although it's not very stealthy.
hi. how do you tell when a tree is dead so that you're not using a living tree, just wondering cause i would like to know how to tell the difference too.
So in. Lot of those options where do you store your gear?
I have an 11×15 ft tarp
