I am in a wheelchair and live vicariously through videos like yours. I have to say that your's are my favorite now. I love the format (the video speaks for itself) You and Marie rock! Please give us more.
Super . . . just SUPER! Enjoying the fruit of your labor. It was so much fun to watch from beginning to end. Thank you for taking the time to get it all on video.
Right? They come from the farm store my brother works at. Apparently that's all that chicken lays because we've had at least 10 or more cartons with all eggs like that. :)
You're both awesome. I am so happy to watch this Episode, the building of the camp, the lead up to Winter, cooking and camping is the best. such a beautiful setting. Thank you for taking us along. Cheers !
So glad to hear! I was really stressing about what we should do for the 10th and final entry in the series since the snow came down. Camping turned out to be the perfect thing! If only we had a big ol steak though instead of spam
enjoy the forest to the fullest. im ill now so i cant do this any more i enjoyed it more than anything..so the bottom line is take as good care of yourselves as you can and i hope you have many years of enjoyment.
Very glad I stumbled on your channel. Very cool watching 2 young people like yourselves spending time in the woods. It is similar to what we did many years ago but you really took it to another level.
It was great, watched from start to finish and really loved the commentary, no explanation needed. Great idea with the Tinned Tuna and mushrooms. Wayne from Brisbane Australia
Wonderful production style, appreciate the long venue....... I have never seen tuna warmed like that before, that was the surprise in this video...... you most always provide at least one hidden gem like that, shows great imagination....... Waiting patiently for the next one........
Thank you! You should try the tuna like that, make sure it's in oil of course. It gives it a completely different taste and it's great. :) Hopefully there will be a new video soon!
after watching your first one building this camp , I'm really very impressed . you honestly do meticulously fine work and put thought into everything you build into it. I'm just an old carpenter that's retired , 56 yrs old . my Filipino wife loves the wilderness here in the states . didn't know how well she would handle the cold , even in Louisiana and Arkansas . I was amazed , but I got her excellent cold weather gear , ( mil surplus , and sore bought both . she handles it better than I do . we soon have eight kids headed this way . all good things willing , considering these children are very respectful and chomping at the bit to learn , I cant wait to teach em wood/bushcraft stuff , hunting and fishing too . we live remotely on a lake . we camp on islands a lot as well as deep hardwood forest land too . ive have 2 similar rifles to yours . marlin 1895cb & a trapper1895 . use rem loads and underwood loads . my wife didn't really know how much of my life I spent growing up deer , duck , turkey , hog & rabbit hunting , fishing inbetween . so she really is taking off on enjoying this stuff , which I'm really happy about . the kids cant say enough about camping and fishing and hunting . ages from 7 to 19 . so , it looks like schools gonna be in session for quite awhile . her father gave us a pika house on the southern island of Mindanao on the s.e. side half way up a mountain . a truly beautiful view . never , ever gets cold there , but they do get monsoons . once the kids are here and we egt them all set up and into their lives as well as me teaching them many things , we will be going back there every two years or so . its on the edge on the kiotos mountains . no wookies , but some very large cobras . ha and crocs on the lowlands . they all farm coconut , cacao , coffee , mangos pineapples and papayas . I'm already sending back the coffee . I'm not much of a gourmet sorta guy...but that coffee is awesome ! as is the fresh green tea . as well....lot to be said for fresh seafood from two of her brothers....something I didn't expect ....ah well....all expected bonuses I never expected from some truly good people . I love em a lot....easy going people . I'm not much on manila and the city areas where her sisters live.....I prefer spending time with her dad and brothers, wife and kids....rural . oh by the way I found these blue and white Italian officers heavy wool blankets for 69 bucks on sporstmens guide > ( mil surplus) . they are 100% virgin wool , do not itch and are heavier than ANY Pendleton or hudsons bay ive ever had . for the price I bought 6 of em . only other one worth buying I got is a dutch navy one . also heavy wool. we use em on top of our sleeping bags or alone with pads....best sleeping blanket Ive ever had .
Make sure it’s tuna in oil, that way it can wick and burn properly! I loved it when I made it. I actually forgot about that trick until you mentioned it here. Thank you!
Nice get away. I appreciate your video. Look into building a long term fire. Lots of vids on it. An easy on is 3 large logs about 3ft long. 2 on the bottom with lots of kindling in between and on top along the whole length. Light the kindling and once it gets going, put the 3rd large log on top right in the middle. Put 2 stakes behind each bottom log to stop them from rolling over once their sides burn, then the 3rd log on top will eventually drop in the middle on the embers, basically still leaving you with 2 whole logs to burn (the 2 half burned & the 3rd one). Hard wood will last longer, if you have any there.
A picture is beautiful! Snow Country lives there for me. I live in Hokkaido in Japan. A season is winter. It's also snowy. Your animation provides with outdoor useful information!
Now I have your great vids to watch to add with Joe Robinet....and Shawn James....great stuff to watch sir......for a bunch of hosers.....lol......also loved SCTV growing up.............Take Off......and thanks for the vids
I am in the middle of watching this one, but this one of your best episodes. I could spend weeks in a cedar forest like that. Also, your camp is so meticulously organized.
Thank you! I spent ages on it, it use to have really nice music but I had to take it out. Ended up re-rendering it 3 times and re-uploading it 2 times :/. I love these forests though they're really peaceful :)
The wife and I are heading into the forests of Vancouver island. We will have different Recreation site campgrounds to ourselves for FREE. We will be wandering from site to site for 6 months each winter. Average temp 3-9 C.... We will use a 2wd Tacoma with a Tufport D-59 which is 500 pounds and cheap for the bedroom and king size mattress. A tiny trailer cargo 5 x 8 all aluminum will telescope to the camper back door and it will house the compost toilet and wave 3 heater and sink. Behind the 500 pound trailer are 2 doors to open for our teardrop which connects to our Canvas tent section double skin and tarped. 10 x 14 foam floor and back door and little buddy heater and coleman 1 lights off a 20 pound tree. This is basic camping with only 206 square feet to protect from the snow or rain......make that mostly winter rain. I could stay at resorts for $ 1,600 dollars but people get on my nerves and I called and they said if they don't like the look of our vehicle then we have to get out. It's a 2018 truck with camper on top but they have turned people away before......fuck them. If were happy back there it may become a yearly pilgrimage to the forest......and in Ontario I used to spend summers in a primitive log camp and winter weekends.
I'm glad you took the music out, it brings out the peace and quiet of your camp. Not speaking doesn't seem to hinder your team work. You are most fortunate to have such an attractive partner.
It's great to see y'all out enjoying all the hard work y'all have done hope to see more videos of y'all out enjoying your camp wish you and your wife all the best until next time my friend happy holidays
It was real nice being out there, super comfortable and relaxing. I've been getting a lot of comments saying she's my wife! She's my girlfriend :) Happy holidays to you as well
Nicholas Wituik sorry my bad but still really enjoyed watching camp looks great besides y'all do look like a couple look forward to seeing more thanks for sharing
I see a lot of people who do this that build shelters, if you do a lot of sawing and shaving off of the bark keep it. I take bags with me to gather saw dust and shavings to use to start fires. Saw dust is amazing for this and no need to gather anything to start it with.
I don't actually leave, we just film us leaving then come back and do other things. Remember, I only show you what I want to show you. There's tons behind the scenes.
Glad to hear :), I think my favourite kind of spam was corned beef flavoured spam my friend had brought once. But I may have enjoyed that so much because my calories were tanked from living in a half ass built camp for a week in winter ahaha
Excuse my ignorance ,but besides heating up tuna and soaking oil what other purpose is there or is there for doing it like that!!!! Very interesting!!!
This was so lovely. Just found your build today and have enjoyed the sights and sounds so much. I don’t understand what the big room is for - just a utility room, thought you were gonna sleep in there? Certainly cozy though on the bed in front of the fire. Where does the pup sleep
Just something to think about. If you put a clear plastic sheet in the front of your sleeping area that could be rolled up out of the way during the day and let down at night it would work like a “super shelter” and increase your temps to sleep in. If you coupled that with a self feeding fire lay you would be toasty all night and still have a fire in the morning. Just a thought.
I took my wife camping on our first real serious date to see if she was comfortable and experienced doing a primitive campout. If whether she knew how to set up camp, go to the bathroom outside. starting and maintaining a proper fire along with everything else involved. I'm happy to say that was 37 years ago on Blake Island in the S. Puget Sound here in Washington State. That's my Girl alright.
I meant to say in your compilation that Red Pine Outdoors has some very amazing deals on para-cord quite often, I say that as I realized how much went into this build, cheers.
I just checked them out and for sure will be buying from there. Luckily most of the para-cord I used I had gotten for cheap but towards the end it was really starting to add up :)
Have to say your videos are awesome. Love how you let the content speak for itself! Very relaxing to watch. A new camp build by a lake would be great as well...
great video on camping out side loved it all! tell your wife to relax she is doing a great job!! P.S. next time you stack wood always if you can make sure the bark is always facing up! Then if it snows or rains on it the wood wont get wet....
Woke up early and clicked on your video. SO glad i did, what a wonderful video, and you have a new sub, hope you see you flourish and get bigger on this channel. Hope to see more in the future. Be safe and wild. :)
Nicholas Wituik ha Thanks man, not as cool as yours though lol and yeah man its nice having somthing small and simple like that, but also the land to tent camp, build shelters etc....lots of plans for this year!!!! thanks again and awesome videos
Great video! Thanks for sharing! One suggestion - at approx. 5:40... you need a large section of tree base to split your wood on. Easier on your lower back, easier on your swing and your axe isn't hitting the dirt, becoming dull faster which can become a safety issue.
Thanks! Later on in the video I get two rounds to split on. Also at 5:40 the reason I put a log on the ground below where I was splitting is to catch the axe before it hits the dirt. Works decent if you can't get yourself a stout round to split on. Thanks for the comment and view!! :)
lol! understand. love your video's and the idea of the 'voice-free' concept (although... I'd love to hear Marie's voice though). :-) I'm at the end of day two (tea and sleep), still viewing.
@@wituikbws, I have probably watched too many bushcraft videos, a person can take only so much chopping and sawing. LOL It seems like they're all doing the same things, making the same shelters and cooking the same food. I was pleasantly surprised by your camp, very original and enjoyable. Thanks 🙂
@@wituikbws I lived in Maui HAWAII for 28 years, it's pretty much ruined& prices skyrocketed! Moved to THAILAND and now that as well is done! Left a year ago & living in a beautiful place in Mexico! ,Been here 1 year& don't believe everything you hear on the news! Living the good life down Mexico way!
Hey there fellow west coaster i love the videos keep them coming. A little tip i use a small flask for storing my cooking oil in works great doesn’t leak rather than a zip lock bag 😁
Glad to hear! That's a great idea though, my one flask I have is pretty large and has the remnants of whiskey in it so I'd have to get a new smaller one :)
Hey Nicholas here's a recipe for you to try. It's very simple and makes a hardy breakfast. You need a can of potatoes, can of beans, a can of spam and three eggs. A cast iron pot is the best way to cook this. First fry up some slices of span until you have a nice crust on both sides. Add the can of potatoes, not the liquid. Add your can of beans and allow to cook for about 5 minutes. Add three raw eggs and fold until the eggs are cooked and then enjoy. Another thing to try at lunch or dinner is to cut up some potatoes into cubes, add them to a bowl, then add dry onion soup mix. I find the Knoor brand is the best. Add a couple of table spoons of butter and mix with the potatoes and onion soup mix. Get some heavy duty foil and make pouches with it (enough pouches for amount of potatoes). Cook over the fire allowing enough time for the potatoes to cook and caramelize. Serve with whatever meat you plan on cooking. We have served this to our neighbours and they love it. It's a must have when we are at camp.
Tarps with more eyelets placed in them along the sides and a few in the center like you would in a blanket then thread them with cord and fill tarps with dirt has you cover your long term shelter. Ypu could also cut tarps and place eyelets to form front and back panels that you could bind to poles. You could make a tarp earth bag shelter in sections then fold it up pack it in set up frame of shelter then fill up tarps with dirt. If you really want it to last in spring make cob and fill tarps with cob and then let your whole shekter dry out and harden over summer for winter camping. 😊
Excellent production. I have always felt a bit let down after watching your previous videos because at the end you always packed up and went home. This time I feel complete, having seen you stay for three nights and done all the usual bushcraft stuff. Given that the temperature was so low, I wondered why you slept in the outer part of the shelter. Great job guys and I hope all goes well with your future projects.
Thanks! My original planning was to have the outer part of the shelter (I call it the shed) as the winter sleeping area, since that area gets tons of direct heat from a fire. The inside of the A-frame was meant more for the other 3 seasons where warmth isn't to much of a concern, and in winter, for storage :). Thank you for the comment though!
Awesome! Both of them would be nice. Just wish I found the new spot at the lake before I went and built this long-term camp. Should have built it there!
I have subscribed and look forward to watching and promoting more of your content when time permits, and the social networks i use do not have me banned. I almost forgot the airdale puppy, the only time i noticed the woman smile, marie, if i remember correctly from the food presentation.
I like what your doing here and the way you done it. With a bit more construction and materials you could add a small wood stove. We did this down to 20 below. When it started getting to 50 below , we bugged out.
New subscriber to your channel only cause your such a bad influence on me ( ;D ). Sitting here, it's about 2 in the morning, seen you make that cup of coffee and just had to have a cup. Love your vlogs! And I'm sure you've been told a million times, Mrs. Marie is a very beautiful lady (and the puppy's cute too!!!).
I am in a wheelchair and live vicariously through videos like yours. I have to say that your's are my favorite now. I love the format (the video speaks for itself) You and Marie rock! Please give us more.
I'm glad you enjoy them. I'll be sure to make lots more for you! Thank you for the nice comment
Another great video. Natural sounds enhance the viewing pleasure. God bless off grid people.
Super . . . just SUPER! Enjoying the fruit of your labor. It was so much fun to watch from beginning to end. Thank you for taking the time to get it all on video.
Thank you!
For some reason, it's a very relaxing video. Thank you.I watched both part.
That's what I aim for :) Thanks for watching!
Three double yolkers!?! What luck! Great relaxing and entertaining video. Look forward to more!
Right? They come from the farm store my brother works at. Apparently that's all that chicken lays because we've had at least 10 or more cartons with all eggs like that. :)
Absolutely perfect video! Please do more with the shelter like sustainability. Love the silence
Thanks! I'll try; although, this shelter isn't actually lived in. It's just practice
You're both awesome. I am so happy to watch this Episode, the building of the camp, the lead up to Winter, cooking and camping is the best. such a beautiful setting. Thank you for taking us along. Cheers !

@@wituikbws spam,,, gotta love it
excellent load out , very enjoyable to watch , thanks for sharing
Thank you!
That smile takes it all. Nice video. Thanks.
A smile? I thought no one ever smiles on my videos! or at least that's what people say
You guys videos are amazing, lots of respect to yous from Scotland
Thank you!
Just so very interesting. And what a neat campsite you keep Nicholas. Many thanks - Cheers.
Thanks :)

Very glad I stumbled on your channel. Very cool watching 2 young people like yourselves spending time in the woods. It is similar to what we did many years ago but you really took it to another level.
I'm also glad you did aha. I'd love to more with her but she had to go home :(
Love the basic long pole structure you use. The open reflector area and the sleeping quarters, using tripod basics👍🏼
Thanks! I wish I would've done a lot of things different though.
These films are so relaxing. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I try very hard
I've watched all 3... Their all excellent, even better I think without a music track. Just the sound of the fire, the loons and the coyotes. 🌲👍
I agree!
It was great, watched from start to finish and really loved the commentary, no explanation needed. Great idea with the Tinned Tuna and mushrooms. Wayne from Brisbane Australia
Thanks :D Try it out it is honestly the best Tuna I've ever had, make sure to cook it for long enough though!
the crackling of the fire its amazing.......
She's Awesome!😀😘 Best life companion to be able to hang in there!
I agree. She's amazing
Really enjoy the fact that there is no talking and just observing. Too many survival shows and videos just talk too much. Nice touch to just to watch.
I am an Arab and I love watching your videos
Glad to hear that aha
Wonderful production style, appreciate the long venue....... I have never seen tuna warmed like that before, that was the surprise in this video...... you most always provide at least one hidden gem like that, shows great imagination.......
Waiting patiently for the next one........

Bonito vídeo. Obrigada!

Well, that must have been frustrating. I love to see you build a small hunting camp, too.
Son of a Bear Bushcraft Extremely. But we did end up finding a better area far far away from where anyone would walk to. :)
The wife and I are heading into the forests of Vancouver island.
We will have different Recreation site campgrounds to ourselves for FREE.
We will be wandering from site to site for 6 months each winter.
Average temp 3-9 C....
We will use a 2wd Tacoma with a Tufport D-59 which is 500 pounds and cheap for the bedroom and king size mattress.

Maybe one day :)
Great videos and team effort. Thank you.
Thank you :)
My new favorite channel! Keep em coming!
I'll try!
Life is good! Loving the series.
Sure is!
Lots and lots of green pine and if it's there moss on the bed, then your flat lay downs, real comfy. Also makes great ground insulation.
Great camp.great vid.def do another build.you both work well as a team.your countryside looks stunning..more please buddy.
Thanks! Sadly she's going back home to the United States, so it will be solo for the most part from here on :/
My god Marie, you’re a quiet one ... BUT you had me at - Spam ! ... god luv ya...smile more
That's a very practical camp lay out . i like it. :)
Thank you! Took a lot of planning
Hi there, I like very much that You don't talk, like others do. Happy People. Hugs from Slovakia.
🤗🤗🤗
Hey :D, glad to hear
Nicholas Wituik
Hey, Nicholas Your lady should have a warmer jacket. It will be sad, if she gets cold. Or needs good warming from You. Ha? 😋😋😋😋😋😋
NO MUSIC NO BLABLABLA its so good!
I'm happy you enjoyed
Using the paper towel as a wick to heat the tuna is pretty clever. I've never seen that done before.
Learnt that trick from Bushcraft Bear!
It's great to see y'all out enjoying all the hard work y'all have done hope to see more videos of y'all out enjoying your camp wish you and your wife all the best until next time my friend happy holidays
It was real nice being out there, super comfortable and relaxing. I've been getting a lot of comments saying she's my wife! She's my girlfriend :) Happy holidays to you as well
Nicholas Wituik sorry my bad but still really enjoyed watching camp looks great besides y'all do look like a couple look forward to seeing more thanks for sharing
No worries, a lot of people assume that :)
Two fine young people, best of luck.

Good times my friend. I hope you have a great weekend. Thanks for the video. - Josh
Thanks, you as well
I see a lot of people who do this that build shelters, if you do a lot of sawing and shaving off of the bark keep it. I take bags with me to gather saw dust and shavings to use to start fires. Saw dust is amazing for this and no need to gather anything to start it with.
I did not know that trick with the tuna in oil! I’m going to have to try that!
Bravo!!!...I found it fascinating !!.....☺☺☺
Thanks! I'm glad
That fire was still smoking and crackling as you left!!!!! SOME OUTDOORSMAN!!!!
I don't actually leave, we just film us leaving then come back and do other things. Remember, I only show you what I want to show you. There's tons behind the scenes.
Thank you for not talking. :) Epic videos.
Thank you for watching!
I love your camp and my favorite out of a can is bacon spam lol great job keep up the good videos and the good life
Glad to hear :), I think my favourite kind of spam was corned beef flavoured spam my friend had brought once. But I may have enjoyed that so much because my calories were tanked from living in a half ass built camp for a week in winter ahaha
Epic video Nick. Your vids are great & enjoyed the length of this one. Keep up the great work.
Andy Perrine Thank you!
Looking forward to new videos, already checked out all of them, watching them again
Excuse my ignorance ,but besides heating up tuna and soaking oil what other purpose is there or is there for doing it like that!!!!
Very interesting!!!
That's pretty much it! It gives the tuna a great flavour, worth a try if you ever have some in oil
This was so lovely. Just found your build today and have enjoyed the sights and sounds so much. I don’t understand what the big room is for - just a utility room, thought you were gonna sleep in there? Certainly cozy though on the bed in front of the fire. Where does the pup sleep

She's a cute pupper. Thank you though!
Have to say your videos are awesome. Love how you let the content speak for itself! Very relaxing to watch. A new camp build by a lake would be great as well...
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the silent adventures! For sure will be doing the small camp by the lake. It's too perfect to not to!
I like this ........................
great video on camping out side loved it all! tell your wife to relax she is doing a great job!! P.S. next time you stack wood always if you can make sure the bark is always facing up! Then if it snows or rains on it the wood wont get wet....
That vest on your dog cracks me up..
Gotta keep her warm!
I used to make so many aluminum foil meals back in Boy Scouts, good memories.
I tend to not make them anymore since someone told me it's toxic, but I have my doubts on that claim haha
Great video Nicholas!
Woke up early and clicked on your video. SO glad i did, what a wonderful video, and you have a new sub, hope you see you flourish and get bigger on this channel. Hope to see more in the future. Be safe and wild. :)
I'm glad you did as well! Thanks for subscribing!
that tin foil bundle looks really tasty! I might have to try it with some thin slices of flank steak or ham...
It was! You should see what Marie can create in a kitchen its insane ahah
Очень хорошие и интересные твои фильмы
Рад, что вы наслаждаетесь!
and I thought i had a nice little shelter built!!!! lol great video guys!!!
Just checked yours out, you for sure do! Love the roof :) P.s. that cabin looks super cozy
Nicholas Wituik ha Thanks man, not as cool as yours though lol and yeah man its nice having somthing small and simple like that, but also the land to tent camp, build shelters etc....lots of plans for this year!!!! thanks again and awesome videos
Really enjoying your channel!
Glad to hear
Good luck and more episodes please. :)
Thanks! Will do
Now, this is the life.... I am also a new subscriber .. love your videos
Sure is, thanks for subscribing!
Great video! Thanks for sharing! One suggestion - at approx. 5:40... you need a large section of tree base to split your wood on. Easier on your lower back, easier on your swing and your axe isn't hitting the dirt, becoming dull faster which can become a safety issue.
Thanks! Later on in the video I get two rounds to split on. Also at 5:40 the reason I put a log on the ground below where I was splitting is to catch the axe before it hits the dirt. Works decent if you can't get yourself a stout round to split on. Thanks for the comment and view!! :)
lol! understand. love your video's and the idea of the 'voice-free' concept (although... I'd love to hear Marie's voice though). :-)
I'm at the end of day two (tea and sleep), still viewing.
You use a chainsaw!! You are my hero !!!
I wish other bushcrafters would remember that they live in the 21st century. LOL
Your camp is awesome 🙂
Sometimes! I prefer hand tools for everything but bucking up firewood.
@@wituikbws, I have probably watched too many bushcraft videos, a person can take only so much chopping and sawing. LOL
It seems like they're all doing the same things, making the same shelters and cooking the same food. I was pleasantly surprised by your camp, very original and enjoyable. Thanks 🙂
that camp look so sweet
I'm happy you think so aha
Gostei muito bom adoro acampar
Estou feliz!
They put Spam on about everything in Hawaii, I would love to go there. That's my kind of place, warm.
I can't handle warm weather at all sadly so I'd probably never go there haha
@@wituikbws I lived in Maui HAWAII for 28 years, it's pretty much ruined& prices skyrocketed! Moved to THAILAND and now that as well is done! Left a year ago & living in a beautiful place in Mexico! ,Been here 1 year& don't believe everything you hear on the news! Living the good life down Mexico way!
I grew up on fried SPAM and TREET. Love it still today. I like to fry it up and put it on grilled cheese. YUM...
not seen spam in many years great memories.
I prefer the corned beef kinda. Not really a fan of the kind that we had
agreed the corned beef is way better for sure.
Ahhh to be young and adventurous again. Loved your video. Wish you talked a little more.😊
Wow every egg had a double yoke!
I'm glad you enjoyed! The chicken those eggs came from always laid double yokes eggs, strange
Nice double yolk there made my mouth water :-)
;D tasted pretty great besides the spam
Hey there fellow west coaster i love the videos keep them coming. A little tip i use a small flask for storing my cooking oil in works great doesn’t leak rather than a zip lock bag 😁
Glad to hear! That's a great idea though, my one flask I have is pretty large and has the remnants of whiskey in it so I'd have to get a new smaller one :)
👍🏻
great video.greetings from germany
Thanks! Greetings form Canada
Hey Nicholas here's a recipe for you to try. It's very simple and makes a hardy breakfast. You need a can of potatoes, can of beans, a can of spam and three eggs. A cast iron pot is the best way to cook this. First fry up some slices of span until you have a nice crust on both sides. Add the can of potatoes, not the liquid. Add your can of beans and allow to cook for about 5 minutes. Add three raw eggs and fold until the eggs are cooked and then enjoy.
Another thing to try at lunch or dinner is to cut up some potatoes into cubes, add them to a bowl, then add dry onion soup mix. I find the Knoor brand is the best. Add a couple of table spoons of butter and mix with the potatoes and onion soup mix. Get some heavy duty foil and make pouches with it (enough pouches for amount of potatoes). Cook over the fire allowing enough time for the potatoes to cook and caramelize. Serve with whatever meat you plan on cooking. We have served this to our neighbours and they love it. It's a must have when we are at camp.
They sound really good! I'll have to show Marie these :)
@@wituikbws Awesome
Tarps with more eyelets placed in them along the sides and a few in the center like you would in a blanket then thread them with cord and fill tarps with dirt has you cover your long term shelter. Ypu could also cut tarps and place eyelets to form front and back panels that you could bind to poles. You could make a tarp earth bag shelter in sections then fold it up pack it in set up frame of shelter then fill up tarps with dirt. If you really want it to last in spring make cob and fill tarps with cob and then let your whole shekter dry out and harden over summer for winter camping. 😊
Excellent production. I have always felt a bit let down after watching your previous videos because at the end you always packed up and went home. This time I feel complete, having seen you stay for three nights and done all the usual bushcraft stuff.
Given that the temperature was so low, I wondered why you slept in the outer part of the shelter. Great job guys and I hope all goes well with your future projects.
Thanks! My original planning was to have the outer part of the shelter (I call it the shed) as the winter sleeping area, since that area gets tons of direct heat from a fire. The inside of the A-frame was meant more for the other 3 seasons where warmth isn't to much of a concern, and in winter, for storage :). Thank you for the comment though!
I wondered about that also...thanks for clarifying 😊
I would Love to follow along with your New Camp Build. I hope you can have Both of them really. I Like this video an fully lot too. Thank You Both.
Awesome! Both of them would be nice. Just wish I found the new spot at the lake before I went and built this long-term camp. Should have built it there!
I love you guy.. Amazing video
These are great videos. Love the build, the silence, and especially the beautiful girl. You are a very disciplined couple.
Thank you very much. We pride ourselves on that for the most part ahah
I have subscribed and look forward to watching and promoting more of your content when time permits, and the social networks i use do not have me banned. I almost forgot the airdale puppy, the only time i noticed the woman smile, marie, if i remember correctly from the food presentation.
Gotta try that tuna and oil hack 👍
I like what your doing here and the way you done it. With a bit more construction and materials you could add a small wood stove. We did this down to 20 below. When it started getting to 50 below , we bugged out.
That's a great idea. Maybe once I get a better roof on it, I'll do that!
Beautiful couple,, i like this
I'm from indonesia,😘😘
Thank you :)
