Solo Bushcraft - Stone Kingdom Hike - Fully Enclosed Tarp Setup with Floor in the Rain - Foraging

Lovely off trail bushcraft hike in windy weather with rain. But cleared up nice and calmed down in the evening. This harsh region was in ancient time called the Stone Kingdom. It was very hard to live there and grow food for obvious reasons, specially in periods of very hard winters with crop failure and famine in the 19th century, resulting in 1.5 million people emigrating mainly to America. (3.5 million total population in 1850) The Cinnamon Apple was a lovely treat and the tea was amongst the more tasty things I've ever had. Thanks for watching!

There are a lot of people making great videos of their bushcraft outings but this guy is THE BEST

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you very much!

[@Morongobill]

So rare to find a scenic camp with no humans around in the states. You are blessed.

..When i walk through the woods...i feel as tall as the trees 🎼⛺
Lovely tea! Cheers

That's my favourite shelter set up using a square tarp. Quick, easy and versatile.

[@NostalgicLink]

What's the technique called? I want to look up a tutorial. I can't figure it out from what's shown here. I guess I'm slow.

[@Swedwoods]

Just google my title

[@NostalgicLink]

@@Swedwoods Thanks, didn't think it would be that vague. 🤗

[@dougwilliams1741]

Perfect. After a long shift at the hospital, to come home and just quietly sit with your trip... Nice. Thank you. Doug

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@EugeneKuntsevo]

Mmmmm, white nights ... Nice time. It is very romantic to drink forest tea, high on a cliff above the lake and to contemplate the splendor that has opened its gaze.

[@Swedwoods]

👍👍

I like the tarp shelter configuration. Thumbs up.

Hello my friend greatings from Moose Jaw
What a nice video again. The Area where u camped looks awesome realy nice. The Apple you hat reminds me on the Brat Apfel we make in the winter in north east Germany. My mom always made them in the oven or when I was fishing with my Dad we did it over the fire. One Bird you hat on your video I didn't hear for 20 years and that is the Kukuck just beautiful. Thank you so much . Watch out and stay healthy with your family. Bye bye

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks my friend!

[@jamesellsworth9673]

I have been impressed by how well your hand-carved fork has held up through a good few uses.

[@MeyKitchen]

Yes I have been impressed

[@Swedwoods]

Yep still working good... and my smaller one still around too. The hardwood ones dont break and the constant use in food adds fat as preservative. All my softwood ones are gone in a few months

[@Rikslarm]

Great video, as always. The tea sounds really tasty. When watching you walk through the rock fields and over the stream...perhaps some trekking poles for piece of mind. Helps with the slippery rocks and doubles as a tarp pole. If you want to use less tech, make you own walking stick. Will help the knees too.
