    I’ve watched hundreds of videos on bushcraft and survival, with many providing good tips and techniques, but they all fell short when applied to the PNW. Your channel provides the best information I’ve seen for anyone who adventures in the PNW backcountry, well done.

    Had a kayaking mistake lead to a night out in the bush while injured and in wet layers, fern bed saved my life that night for sure. Happy to see this being taught. I also had no tools and the sun was going down so this simple sort of quick shelter made all the difference.

      That’s incredible. Thanks for sharing! I’m curious how long you spent in your fern bed and also curious about the quantity of fern you used compared to what you saw in our video. Thanks!

    when I escaped from Terre Haute camp (un-fenced) in mid February of 1990, first, the 4 trash bags I had saved my butt, and when the rain turned into freezing-rain, I found an old truck bed up on drums. It had a huge hole in the roof, but not at the back. It had no rear covering, but some wonderful soul had put a big pile of wood chips back there. I spread the chips into 2 piles, had a layer under me. I pulled the chips over me and passed-out. I woke twice (that I remember) during the night, cause the chips had fallen off of me I had 4 layers of cheap cotton clothing, a pair of cheap cotton gloves, cotton socks, a beanie, and an Army field jacket. The prison officials dont exactly help you with the very best outdoor clothing! :-)

    thank YOU for sharing the knowledge most would pass on the ferns by their general appearance to not do much at all [thin, gapped, appear 'wet&green' that would be cold]...

    every place aint got ferns and you're still on the ground. which is often muddy. Carrying a very few lbs of proper gear, to include a 1 lb net hammock, make life SO much easier, safer, pleasant.

    Would you have any issues with condensation building up in the bed like when you stick your head in a sleeping bag? Or is it breathable enough to be fully enclosed and not worry about moisture build-up? Definitely going to teach students this in spring.

    yes IF the debris is dry. if it's not, you need a way to dry it out, That can be done with hot rocks, or it can be done by exercising, but you have to hit the sweet spot of generating heat, but not sweating (much) Doing air-squats, while swinging your arms, slowly, seems to work best for me.. But you have to wonder, what the HELL are you doing out there without proper gear, or at least, a knife and a way to make fire.? ESPECIALLY with a kid depending upon you.

      @wildernessstrong6131  10 місяців тому

      Easiest for who? My friends adult daughter died of hypothermia in 40-50 degree weather in this exact climate in western Oregon. Abundant resources doesn’t automatically make it easy to survive. Education and experience with those resources makes it easy to survive. It’s not about winning a competition of who can survive the harshest climate, it’s about providing education that saves lives.
