      In a pinch, if you have some tape (electrical or duct), you can wrap it around the threading on the mouth of your canteen to create a seal when you put the cap on Lilly. I'm so jealous, I grew up in the north, but live in the desert now. Winter camping was my favorite.

    It always surprises me how many people want to focus on negative things, tell you what you're doing wrong, and what you should be doing instead. It's like they have no concept of how much it takes to put together a half hour video nor how much effort you put into what you do. There are a LOT of us that enjoy your videos, learn from them, and appreciate all your effort.

      MichaelKingsfordGray I feel that constructive criticism and advice start with "Here's what I did in similar circumstances ... vs What you need to do is ...", but I do see your point. I was more referring to the comments that try to pull away from what Lilly has done. Such as 'one night is not survival', 'store bought beef is not survival', etc. She has videos up of her hunting, dressing, cooking on her other channel as well as a week stay in Canada on this one. Mostly, I just felt like those of us who appreciate what she does should say it more often, simply so that she knows and has that feedback as well.

I'm 54 and epileptic so i get to enjoy this vicariously through people that can actually trust their brain to function adequately so they wouldn't chop their finger, hand, or a chunk of leg off lol. I wish i could even TRY some of it but i satisfy myself watching her do it very well. Even the mess ups are well done because she is able. I have a different perspective though.

    I think it’s really cool that you have a TIpi. I had the opportunity many years ago when I was a young man to sleep in a TP for several nights at a native American/mountain man gathering. The family who owned it had built it themselves out of traditional large pine poles and hand sewn campus. It was customized and you could see the smoky color on the canvas where it has been used many times. The man who owned it showed me how to arrange the polls when they were erecting it and how to open the flaps depending on the direction of the wind so that it would draft properly. If it’s very cold you only need to have a small gap at the bottom as little as a quarter of an inch roughly. His wife showed me how she arranged the fire in kind of an oval shape. One and was used for cooking and the other end was used for just heating the inside of the lodge. At night they would closed the flap a little bit to conserve the heat so they didn’t have to feed the fire during the night. I was blown away. One of the most clever inventions ever made by the native American tribes of the plains.

    Lilly, you do not need the underground air intake as it is doing the same, exact thing as the liner does for you! However you have it so, use it but, if you ever move your tipi, you won't need to go to that extra work.
    Also, ALWAYS warm up your bows before you ever try to string them! In this case, the bow might not have broken if you had warmed it over the fire since it is freezing outside!
    Is that mold or lichen on the outside of your tipi? From the pictures it looks like it is! IF that is the case from leaving it up in the same location all the time, try to scrape it off and then douse it with lemon juice or vinegar to keep it from coming back!
    My wife and I lived in a tipi for 5 and a half months every year for over 5 years and we learned a lot about tipi living! Also, if you don't have a copy of Reginald and Gladys Laubin's book, the Indian Tipi, get one. It is a great book! They lived about 175 miles from me and lived in their tipis for many years! They were adopted Lakota Indians and studied ALL kinds of tipis for a great many years! It will give you a vast amount of information about the tipi and make living in one so much more fun and comfortable!
    I love your videos!
    Best wishes and keep living the dream!
    Did you really go off and leave the tipi door open?

    Lilly, I'm so impressed with you. You are very knowledgeable and fairly fearless. As a sixty year old man you remind me very much of my thirty five year old daughter in many different ways. You search for new information, you're fearless, kind, gentle and not afraid of the typical things that men and women are hesitant to try.
    I have watched many of your videos, one of which was, recurve or compound bow. I agree with all that you said. One of the things you said was, the recurve bow is more fun but the compound was more accurate and easier to become proficient with. I agree, I just don't have near as much fun with the compound bows that I own and don't shoot anymore.
    I built my own laminated recurve bow in 1969. Shot my first deer with it three years later. Set records in high school with it in 1972 or 73 which stood for many years. I have owned more than sixty wood bows but only four or five compound bows. I also use different hand guns as well as long guns.
    You keep up the great work you do so well and I'll keep watching your videos that I do enjoy very much. It doesn't hurt that you're also very cute.

  • @charlesthomas8875
    @charlesthomas8875 6 лет назад +10

    The reason the tipi has remained one of the greatest camping and living structures is because they are warm and comfortable in extreme conditions. The cold air comes into the tipi from under the outside cover but it doesn't come up over the inside liner because it runs into the warm air from the fire. This causes yet a third current of circulating air between outside cover and inside liner that works as well as a foot of insulation. I love how you know how to stand properly to split wood and live what you teach. I have seen many survivalists and campcraft videos where I just wondered how many people would watch them and then put an axe or swedge into their shin! Good video.

    Lilly, I really enjoy your videos and admire your skills and self-reliance in the woods. What I like probably most of all is that you show some minor failures where tasks don't quite go as planned like the breaking of the alder when making a bow and getting your pack caught momentarily while exiting the tepee, true to life hiccups that lend a sense of reality to your adventures. Keep up the great job!

    Once, my dad and I where in our tent trying to sleep after a day of walking under the rain in La venta canyon. Then we heard at the distance something like a snarling but we ignored it, after maybe half an hour we heard it again, this time sounded more like a panting and was closer. We obviously couldn't sleep, so we stayed awake and after 15 minutes or so, there it was again, except this time the sound was meters away from us, inside my dad had the gun we always take with us in his hand. Not gonna lie, I was scared af, but we stayed in silence and eventually the sound just disappeared. The next morning and to our surprise about 5 meters away from our tend, there were footprints of a Jaguar, and next to them, there were others but smaller, like it had offspring.

    I've been living in teepees for a long time even in the snow and I've even slept right on the ground. But I usually have several elk hides under me or deer hides because their hair is Hollow and it insulates you from the ground. If you want to stay warm in the teepee it is design for you to sleep on the ground and your fire right on the ground not in a hole. That way you don't need air tunnels to keep it going you use your door. I do this the way the Indians do it that's how I learned by doing it. I do admire how you want to learn and want to experience this. Last note I think you did a good job.. when you start thinking this is my home, then things change things get better cuz you'll make them better. Good luck for now sincerely bear claw.

    Once, during the night in the forest, I awoke to hear a very strange and frightening noise right outside my tent. This was 25 years ago, but I remember it well - I can only describe it as an unearthly snarling combined with panting breath. I lay still for a few minutes hoping that whatever terrifying blood-thirsty beast was making it would go away, but it didn't - so, very quietly, I picked up my hatchet and unzipped the tent door before flicking on my flashlight... and found that, while cooking my dinner on the fire, I had dropped a couple of sausages, which were being torn to shreds by a hedgehog.

    Hey Lilly, I was taught to split wood by not chopping straight down, which can stick the axe. I was taught to bring the axe down and ending the chop at about a 30 degree angle which sort of pushes the split sideways in the direction of the edge of the blade. The axe doesn't stick as bad and in good straight grained wood the wood cracks open like a nut. Learned the trick from old timers who used wood as their primary heat source all their lives, as I have done for as long as I can remember. I'm 67 now. Try it.

    Lilly!! Your living my dream!! I’ve always wanted to stay in a teepee, but I don’t know how to build one. Even if I did, I lived in California near the beach, there is no where to build a teepee in Orange County, California.
    I live way out in the woods now, in north west Arkansas, but I’m an old lady now, I can’t build a teepee anymore.
    You are so adorable Lilly, truly a sweet and beautiful young lady. I do that when I eat something really good, I’m glad you share so much with us.
    Thank you Lilly, thank you and God bless you.

      Hi Nate, The fire and tipi design work well together, however the tipi will get very cold when the fire goes out. A more closed tipi and oven like you have is certainly more convinient. Cant wait to watch your video about the camping trip :)

    "Let's see what we have to start a fire today" .. I love it!! Ha ha. I also loved how you washed your hands with the snow after clearing the air tunnel for the fire pit. And knowing to stack the wet wood around the edges to dry, but also using them to hold your cook grid.. Just about everything Lilly!! You're awesome!! A girl that is down to earth, normal, & ok with reality, & NOT prissy is so rare now a days here in the United States.. It's a VERY attractive character you have, so keep doing your thing & never change a thing!!
    It was very informative to see how it is in the tee-pee with the fire🔥going.. That answered all my questions seeing it.
    Another curiosity I have is how to identify which mushrooms are ok to eat. I remember you picked some to cook in your favorite shelter, & you know how.. It's so hard to learn from reading without knowing the terms.. I think a good video showing what you look for up close on the mushroom would help.. If you have the time when they bloom please think about that for a video..?
    Thank you for all you are..

      Its also done by people in dire need...I remember when my dad was laid off and the lights got turned off. I was a kid and it was great going without TV and lights but it was cold AF at night because our heater was electric. We still had gas service so mom would put bricks into the oven on low early of a morning and leave them there until bedtime then take them out and wrap them in sheets or towels and tuck our blankets in at the bottom and stuff the covered bricks way down at the feet. It was nice and toasty. If your feet are cold, you'll never get warm.

    • @scottpreston5074
      @scottpreston5074 4 года назад +5

      This was recommended to me by a Korean OMD (Oriental Medical Doctor) because the chi is much better and more healing from the stone. (Chi =energy). Be carefull when heating them because if there is trapped water in the stone it can explode while heating it and it can harm you. Once you have a stone that can be heated to sizilling hot, you can be sure it is safe and can use it over and over. Wrap the hot stone in seveeral layers of a thick towel and bind it up securely with cord so that it won't burn your skin. The towel also allows the heat to slowly radiate out during the night and is still comfortably warm in the morning. You don't have to be camping to enjoy the therapeutic heat from a stone.

      I heard noises similar to that and was CERTAIN it was an animal approaching my camping trailer. I stepped outside to investigate, and still worried it was an animal approaching. . .

      I was camping in a cedar grove during a big storm , wild and exciting ... I was calm though, swinging in my hammock enjoying the familiar noises, certain that that noise was trees rubbing together ... branches slapping a trunk in the wind, rain coming and going. nothing to worry about . that intent scrutiny i sensed must be my imagination , right? ya that's what i was thinking... till it huffed at me and stomped the ground ! then the ice cold chill slid down my back. I felt like a meat burrito hanging there all of a sudden . but I huffed back growling savagely ... the silence was deafening after that . I spent the rest of the night waiting for the ambush I knew would never come... we have black bear , wolves & cougar on Vancouver Isl. It wasn't a cougar ... wolf is most likely by the sound... ? but who knows ... I call that one " camp Sasquatch " I lay there telling my self about the poor misunderstood Sasquatch who broke into my camp to borrow my carving tools and take shelter from the gale, meaning no harm .It made me laugh to much for worry I fell asleep and dreamt peaceful dreams. that's why I said most times it's the imagination Jared

      I'll admit to near heart failure from black tail dear before but not this one... the huff & stomp sounded very canine but less likely maybe a bear . i surprised it , i was out of place somewhere it was familiar with. but it did not sound aggressive. because of the heavy rain... no tracks in the morning. so i call it a sasquatch for fun. the sound of dear hooves is hard. & the sound they make is higher pitch...
      Big leaf maple has fooled me before as well... big heavy leaves they sound like a stalking ...? something. :) sound identification is fun & it brings peace of mind when you can rule out most of them...

The other time was soon after climbing in our tent we heard snuffling noises...looked out the tent door to see a skunk about 4 feet away, looking for something to eat. Quietly closed the door and pretty soon he left! Ha ha.

What a dilemma, tent had no rear exit 😄. We thought even if we could get to the car there might not be time to unlock it before whatever it was got there. Well the critters making noise turned out to be someone’s hunting dogs looking around our cook stove for a snack. Funny now but not then.

    I biked (bicycle) to Arizona from North Carolina back in 1981. I had just got out of the Marine Corps. I camped out in various areas along the way. It was pretty much uneventful except for one night in Pennsylvania. During the night I heard someone walking around my tent. There were leaves everywhere so I could easily hear someone approaching. I would get up and leave my tent to face the intruder. There was no one there. This kept going on for most the night. It was very unnerving. I managed to get a little sleep. In the morning I checked to see if my bike was still there. I couldn't see anything wrong. It kinda spooked me. Then I heard someone walking on the leaves again. I turned to face the intruder. Ha! It was two squirrels. One would scurry for a couple of feet then stop. Then the other would do the same. It sounded like someone walking on leaves. I'm not sure but I think these two squirrels did it on purpose.

I use to camp in the mountains when it went down to about 10 degrees farrenheit, so a good goose down sleeping bag and wool blanket are a must but you must take off all your clothes for the warmth of your body to heat things inside your bag.. I know that's hard to do when it's so cold out but that's how the Eskimos do it in Alaska and myself and it works. Just keep your clothes inside your bag so the next morning when you dress, your clothes are warm. Take Care- Eagle Eric from the USA

    Thankfully where I live(Queensland Australia) there is no such thing as snow, but unfortunately the wood is rarely even half as soft as pine or birch.

Only paperbark(melaleuca) is soft wood and has bark that can help with fire.

Night 1 would be a bit cold, but, the following nights would be perfectly warm. Having a fire going all day, it warms up the ground in the teepee and makes it so you sometimes don’t even need a blanket on. Super comfortable.

    Love camping in the winter time as well but never slept in a Tepee. More winter videos would be great and how to make the lights you have with you.

    this right here is relationship goals, a woman who likes to go out in the woods isn't afraid of a bit of work, can build a fire, and wants to build a bow at night in snow haha. well done keep it up always cool to see people go out of their way to spend time in nature away from technology and participate in a bit of discomfort.

      It's a struggle I tell you ... Had to put a catchy term behind it like pioneer days ... The 8 year old enjoyed the dehydrated snacks at least .... And after making the fire the male counter part at least tried to bring A piece of wood over to it ... I can tell you this much men will freeze to death and starve before a woman will ...

      John Wiley I agree. I am about an hour south of you. A friend has one on his property in Georgia and swears by it. I'm thinking that I will put one up soon on my place.

    Great presentation. Caution do not chop wood when it’s dark outside. This is a quick way to harming yourself.
    God bless.
