4 Days Winter Bushcraft Camping - Fatwood Light - Log Heated Hot Tent
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 дек 2022
- Bushcraft and camping in cold weather. The Fatwood torches/lighters were in every home in the boreal forests for thousands of years. They cut the bark off the base of pine trees, waited 5 years and harvested the resin saturated wood. Cut it up in thousands of little sticks and lit up their everyday life in the darker months. In Falu Copper Mine 10 000 sticks where used every day. They where holding them in the mouth, therefore allowing the use of both hands, crawling into narrow places. They where also used in summer, at night or during night fishing. Each light burns about 10-20 minutes. As I have understod from reading what I could find, in Sweden, a stick burning for light was called "lysesticka" (light stick) and when tied in a bundle "Tjärbloss" (Tar Torch). I imagine the latter was specially used during night fishing. At a museum I saw a holder for the stick made out of metal, so in this video I do the wooden version. It all worked very good. Fatwood from pine burns with a very bright strong flame that lights up more than normal wood. I had about 7 sticks and they lasted all night lighting and putting them out, relighting them over and over. I did not use them in my mouth though, I guess house wives of old times were made of another material because I couldn't stand that nasty resin smoke in my eyes for more than 5 seconds ;).
The Log placed for burning in a closed tent like this is a Sami tradition from the north of Sweden. That is the only time when I use a fire in a stone circle like this (something I like to call Donald Duck Fires). Fires are to be made on rocks. Pointless outside a tent to make stone rings. But you see them everywhere I'm afraid. In Sami the fire place in a tent is called Arran. In this video I'm not doing it exactly according to the Sami tradition, as always its with a Swedwoods tweak.
That last fire I made out on the ice was magic. Every fire is unique. After all these years there it was. The perfect fire.
I'm using both steel and matches for fire in this video. I have a reason for doing everything and I do not care at all about internet trends and social media rules of engagements. Thank you so much for watching!
Merry Christmas to all my Subscribers!

The best tool is any tool that does the job and it’s there when you need it. Great stuff as always! Anything can break or get lost/forgotten at home, it’s always better to have alternatives.
Thanks!
Future archaeologists finding Swedewoods camps: They seem to have been a nomadic people, sleeping at many different primitive camps. How the 5-star cuisine was procured we haven’t figured out yet. 😂
😂😂😂 best comment!
LOL!
🤣💨
Woooow keren banget
That probably how current archeologists come into conclusion about ancient civilisation when they found stuff on some places
I wish the entire planet smelled like fresh fatwood! It is almost intoxicating. And your right that was the perfect fire. With basic knowledge being in the wilderness is like writing music. Let your senses tell you what to do and before you know it you are proud of what you've done.
Amen bro!
You basically turned your tent into a large twig stove...love it.
I love the beauty of winter, the biting cold (as long as I can get warm when needed), the different sounds the snow makes when you step or lay on it, and the taste of food cooked over a fire. Thank you for your video and letting me enjoy those things through you.
Thank you very much!
Ditt arbete ger lugn och ögonkomfort. Tack för att du delar med dig av denna upplevelse
Tack!
I think this version of the tent is the best for spiritual hikes Thanks for the video.
What is the name brand of this lavvu? I really like the removable peak. My son is interested in hot tents. It would make a nice gift.
Was -17 C yesterday here in Småland.
SOmehow these cold winters remind me of the 90's when i was a kid. All day, everyday out playing. Skating in a hockeyrink we kids cared for ourselves. The memories.
Our of those childhood friends, i have lost 4 and had to end friendship with one. Life moves quickly.
The last sequence when your walking away from the campfire was magical 👍👍
Several video's back, year or so, I commented that you remind me of someone that isn't just a "bushcrafter", but rather, I believe you continue to be a student of your craft. That is made even more apparent from your entry above, talking about the history and tradition of the Sami, the copper mine, and the tradition of the fatwood lights and lanterns. You are an inspiration on numerous levels. With the new year fast approaching, I hope you and yours continue in good health, and long, happy trails. Roger
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas!
Nothing beats the quality and the level of relaxation on this channel
Thank you!
Huzzah!
Мне нравятся Ваши видео, благодарю за релакс!!!
Thanks!
The action itself filmed in vid is rather simple, not been "patched up" by lots of "survival tips". And it is ok.
Most impressive thing to me was the magic lighting of near-midwinter night. Very good!
And your commenting text for the video is quite remarkable too!
Thank you!
Your videos make everyone to love winter!
Tu fais aussi bien ça !
Your video is so quiet and peaceful
I can't add more to comments that hasn't been said already. You made me hungry again even after eating dinner, you inspire me with your neverending innovations and beautiful cinematography. What an incredible journey you're sharing with us and tell the story like no other!
Thank you!
Love seeing the snow falling like that and beautiful campfire, very captivating. Exceptional scenery, the grasses glistening with snow crystals - spectacular
Thank you!
Another great video! Best camera set ups on RUclips. Visual of the campfire smoke laying on the snow packed lake tells you how cold it was.
Thank you my friend!
impressed with the snow field and your journey, it's great
Thanks!
Watching all these videos with lavvus and hot tent camping with fancy stoves. I completely forgot that the human race has had an open fire inside a tent for centuries. Thank you for the reminder. This is great. More with this tent my friend.
Appreciate the effort to show folks how things were done centuries ago. Many of our youth are lost in cell phone space but
there are many still seeking the beauty and solitude of the woods. You live in a beautiful place. May your axe stay sharp...and your mind sharper.
Love your comment. From India 🙏
You are right about mobile phone use. 🎉
Thank you for the kind comments. It's a shame really. The youth here in USA are being brainwashed and hypnotized daily though many still enjoy the solitude of nature as well as hunting for food.@@HimachaliCamper
Beautiful, mesmerising imagery on the ice. You are the best possible ambassador for your country. All best wishes to you and your family.
Thanks!
I'm always learning something by watching your videos. So much work and thought goes into them. I commend you. 👏👏
Thanks!
I just figured how much stuff he carry into the wood... oh my godness...
A pan, a pot, oil... at 24:11 you can hear him using a pepper-mill... WTH... half a kitchen!
öğretmedikleri konu yırtıcıların yaşadığı yerde önce çevre emniyeti alman gerektiği. bunların yaptıkları hobi
Another great vid...you continue to amaze with your high-quality photography. The simple elegance and enduring every-day utility of your skills stills astounds me, after all these years. Love your content and channel!!!
Thank you very much!
👍👍👍
Super beautiful video. Appreciate all the history and examples.
Merry Christmas.
Thank you!
-16c = 3.2 degrees Fahrenheit for my fellow Americans out there. That’s a chilly one. The coldest night that I’ve been out camping in was around -14 degrees Fahrenheit. I kept my two 1.5L water bottles that were both in insulated sleeves in my -20F rated sleeping bag with me that night, and we all stayed very warm. That night I stayed in one of the many free to the public shelters on Vermont’s Long Trail, a 3 sided lean-to at Sterling Pond in the Stowe area of Vermont. It’s snowing like mad outside today, and watching a Swedewoods video makes me want to pack up and get out there!! - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, DSA (‘DSA’, meaning “The Divided States Of America”)
It's like watching a documentary on the other hand. That's great!!!😊👍
Thanks!
My friend, you are the king of forests creative with all the time and when you will ⚘️❤️
Thank you!
Merry Christmas to you, wishing us all a happy New Year and the return of peace to Ukraine.

You are a unique natural person. I learned a lot from you.
Super smart tent, can have the fire inside. Best set up I have seen on here.
My gentle giant I don't know how I missed this trip but I enjoyed every minute 😊😊😊
Your videos are amazing! This crazy world lacks something like that. Thank you very much for allowing us to enjoy the beauties of your beautiful country.
Thanks!
I love how you stay civilized by using a plate with that yummy looking winter pasta. I would of ate it right out of the cooking pot😉😁 Another wonderful video! Thanks for sharing🏕
Thanks for watching!
The scenes from Swedish woods are also breathtaking. Thanks for your beautiful ‘long’ video. :)
Thank you!

I love your videos. Not only because of the enormous peace that they convey, but above all, because of the great beauty of their images.

Amazing shots on ice, Thank you for another innovative trip Swedwoods! Br, Janne/Finland
Great outdoors bushcraft and scenery! Always educational and enjoyable, thank you!
Thanks!
This is just a beautiful camping in the forest/Enjoyed this very much.
Thank you!
Truly beautifully filmed in stunning surroundings. Relaxing to watch as well as being brought back to how so much can be done when you have the skills. Thanks for taking us all along with you 🤝👏👏👏
Thank you!
I'm glad you eat healthy food too
Isn't it amazing what can be done with the simple pine tree and it's pitch? I love using the candles and torches from them.
I come from Vietnam. and you know. In Vietnam, only a few northern provinces have snow. over 95% of our country is snow-free. and i really like camping theme videos
@BUSHCRAFT In The Forest do you mean game videos on my channel?. if you ask about the game it's called ART OF WAR 3.
Kale is one of my favourites, I fry mine with chestnuts and smoked bacon cut small.
Boy if this world turns apocalyptic I hope I am somewhere near you 😅
That pivoted quickly from winter camping to a Bergman film about a Swedish man eating his final meal on a frozen lake.
Awesome video! So much amazing content! I was going do an overnight on the ice, ice fishing but I feel content to stay home after watching this.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Thanks!
What great final shots! Love that sky.
хороши ваши походы в одиночку.👍🌲🌲🌲🔥🔥

I enjoy watching your video. It would be nice to return to nature and such a way of life. I am 38 years old and I have not enjoyed modern life for a long time.
The silent chef !!! Yummy
That sausage looked great, no gloves at -15C I'm impressed! Thanks for the trip! Mike

Отличный канал, спасибо 👍
Thank you very much!
Spectacular as always, thanks for making and sharing! You are appreciated!
Thank you!
It's always best to carry multiple ways of starting a fire - it just makes good sense. Great camera work as always!
Thank you!
Excellent as always. High-light of my week, every week.
Thanks!
Tak/tack for upload. God jul til dig 🌲☕❄
Thanks!
Nice. Never seen a tent like that before.
Thanks!
My favorite vegan fresh tomato pasta sauce is made with chopped kale, mushrooms and chopped walnuts. I add pured sundried tomatoes to mine. It is such a delicious combo.
I just love your aesthetic. It is what makes your content stand out, in my humble opinion. The way you film, what you film, the quiet, the scenery, the food; so simple and decadent in the way it is all handled. Hard to put into words!
Beautiful snow ❄️
I love your ingenuity 😍 amazing to watch as always, your a proper Viking Warrior have a Merry Christmas ⛄ & Happy New Year.
Thank you!
No one can stop the heart of camping
Great video. Beautiful winter.

Sei gegrüßt! Wieder einmal ein hervorragendes Video, was die Ruhe in der Natur widerspiegelt und zum Entspannen einlädt. Dieses Tipi-Zelt ist sehr interessant, aber diese tiefen Temperaturen sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Ich wünsche Dir/ Euch einen entspannten 4.Advent und frohe Weihnachten! Bis zum nächsten Mal! Gruß Onkel U 👍👌😉🙋♂
Thank you!?
Thanks Swedewoods. Another great video and i learn something from each of them. Thank you so much for sharing your skills and beautiful country with all of us.
Thanks!
Доброго вечора, вподобайка за відео і атмосферу.
Thank you!
Swedwoods👍👍 Awesome! Interesting fact on the Arran fire. I can see in Sweden a rock ring is not needed account the abundant moisture but here in the states, if an open fire is allowed on federal lands and forest anyway, it has to be contained one way or another per regulations. Usually a rock ring is used to keep the fire from spreading/creeping to adjacent combustibles, we're much dryer here. I go camping etc. to have a good time not survive, so I make fire any way I can period and agreed on the naysayers.. Filming was award winning as usual, the drone shots are epic, well done. Fires and food was Swedwoods all the way, I'm warm and full. Thanks for the winter adventure, the snow and cold there makes up for the lack of it here in the desert southwest, I knew it was close to Christmas time... Enjoy!
Oh I know what dry is. My humus enriched soil around here is disaster waiting to happen. In summer this is also important. You can make a ring sure, but the important thing is not to let the fire creep down into the ground. So always fire ON rocks. Its essential not to have a ring elevating around the fire because: easier to ignite because of better airflow, it heats your body better and faster, it burns better with less smoke. Some awesome books out these days on the matter. And yes, we have all been doing it wrong!
And merry christmas to you my friend!
A winter classic ! The effort you put into this is truly amazing, and inspiring ! The winter pasta ! I might steal that recipe if you don’t mind ! Just can’t thank you enough man. Stay well, Happy Holidays !
Thanks! Bon appetit!

Cragdella / I tnink it´s "Merry Christmas", nowdays...Right ?
Great video. Good stuff. Makes me want to be there.
This guy doesn't just camp, he makes a fire right in the middle of his tent with extendable tree for fuel, genius.
Thanks!
I'm from Vietnam:
Hello my friend, vid good:

No mosquitoes in Sweden at winter. 👍
Interesting history in the description. I like the bipod with the log feeding the fire . Have a great day
Thanks!
