Nice technique. I've always done something similar in burning larger logs in half, then feeding the ends in. This eliminates the "trip hazard" of the longer ends sticking out of the fire.
Glad this channel is active again. Anyone know the tree type of the birds nest? I'm thinking pine and it carved like it was green. Any info appreciated.. It's really good these traditions carried on for the youth that have never camped to see and learn. If you understand these things you will survive a natural or man made disaster. Very important teachings. Thanks.
Cool. I didn't know it's called an Indian lay but I made fires in a similar manner with broken off sticks and branches decades ago. It just seemed like an efficient way. I learned it by necessity when I didn't have a hatchet or big knife with me.
Hi +NativeSurvival (Mitch) how did you light the fire at minute 3:45 in this video. Also, please remind me of the brand of knife you have in your hand. I remember you mentioning it before and can't figure out which brand it is. I want to see if I can order one off of REI.com or Amazon.com. I finally purchased a sleeping bag for myself (since my sleeping I had was from the 1970s [uggh]).
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge LIKE!! You need more description in your title for more views, likes and comments though.....never be short with words in TITLE the entire search WORLD is based on WORDS!!!
Native Americans didn't make feather sticks with net arrowheads like that bro I'm still grateful that's just not the authentic way I'm trying to find a video that naps arrowheads and comes from the very basics can you try to make a video where you go out in the woods with nothing and then come up with rocks and nap knives and arrowheads and then do your survival stuff me cuz I'm more than likely that's what's going to happen if you're running for your life from the New world order or hungry cannibals you're not going to be able to run with backpacks you just going to have to survive this one of God says endure to the end thank God I know how I'm curious if you do
I would love to just camp with Mitch and learn a whole bunch of stuff from him. He would be a very nice teacher.
Excellent information Mitch. Thanks for posting. ....ken
Nice to see some videos from you. You have been missed .
Thumb up for the MORA Knive! Thanks for sharing and nice fire BTW
Great video. Thanks Mitch. I have seen this fire lay in an old camping book. Great to see it in action.
Nice technique. I've always done something similar in burning larger logs in half, then feeding the ends in. This eliminates the "trip hazard" of the longer ends sticking out of the fire.
I'm going to watch a good video.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very nice Mitch! Great feathersticks!
Thank you my friend ; )
Mitch, the king of wholesome feathers sticks. Those shoes you're wearing are the ones I use for bushcraft too XD
Thats awesome, thanks for sharing this technique.
Good idea for another people live in the forest. Thanks!

great camp fire building .
NICE FEATHERS...cool fire lay.
The Native Camp Fire good job
Great lesson.
Some of the nicest feather sticks Ive seen so far on YT.
Spray them red and gold and they'd make lovely Christmas tree decorations!
Nice fire lay. I have seen this in books but I think this is the first time in a video. Thanks for the rundown :)

Nice video...thanks for posting
awesome
I've always loved this channel Thankyou for posting so often with amazing content I will never get bored of watching =D -Joe
Thing I like the most about your videos, the fact that you're more of an educator than an entertainer. Very entertaining too... Makes learning fun : )
I see you are still giving them Moras plenty of love!
I always enjoy your videos, hope you and yours are well and thanks for another great video. TC ATB Louise
dude u nail the feather sticks. good tip on the fire lay
Wow!
I haven't seen that one in a while!
you gotta love those moras, nice vid, good info
I'm not going to say that you did this the longest form possible to make a video but you did a good job .....🙄👌
It probably expends the least amount of YOUR energy too.
Thanks Mitch.
The true firebender
i love the indian ways they had some awesome tricks atb mart

cool vid man
Could you explain what you're doing at 3:20 and how you used that to make a spark? Great video!
intoxicary
He is not making a spark he is getting some powder off of the birch bark due to its dryness so he can have better tinder
Nice I will have to try that
same thing I do wit the scrub oak here in AZ
Have you done a video with how you maintain hygiene while you're in the bush at different times of year?
OH, man. Yeah do a hygiene video it would be very cool.😃
already on my channel
That powder just ignited from the piece of tree bark? Fill me in on how you sparked the fire. Than
Yep looks like a fire to me...lol. Great tip...
thanks for showing this technique sir I was also wondering where I can get a wool blanket like that sir thanks for your time sir
yea as a half breed was taught It as child, i guess Dad left out The Indian part, Works well as you say, thanks for showing, TU
where is this shot at .it looks beautiful
NativeSurvival School's Massachusetts Camp
What kind of knife is that? I like it
that's a well done feather stick, need to refine my technique a bit.
a new other great video Mitch are u watching alone season 2
Good Idea be sure to try. Brian 76
Nice video. The roaring traffic in the background does tend to undermine your wilderness image tho.
That's the wind my friend. Thanks
LOL. Great.
+cat whatever That moment when you realize you're so out of touch with nature that you think wind rustling fallen leaves is traffic, lol.
How did you light it on fire though?
I wish people would learn how to use an ax.
the gloves you wear ? I want some
love your channel very much
hey did you use to start that fire?
any videos on how to sharpen knifes?
yes on my channel
+NativeSurvival thanks
any wood works with feathering? and making a bow drill?
A'ho my brother
Why in the hell does everyone lite their bundle over there and bring I to the fire. Why not in the fireposition?
can you feather like this with any wood or does it need to be something soft like pine?
Say Heah, So when you feed the logs in, Do you break off the nirnt log, or does it burn itself put that you just push and feed. Thank in advance.
nice blade control I would have slipped & cut my blanket!!!
what was you scraping on and the material used?
The noise pollution was so harsh brah..it really harsher my mellow.. I’ll buy you a saw if you want, LOL Great vid tho
