Hi Blackie, greeting from Australia 🇦🇺, thank you for your time to make these videos. This is also an excellent for heating up water the way the scouts use copper pipes on top and use a drum with connection, you know what mean . Thank you, excellent explanation.
Hello Blackie- thanks for this video and showing this simple, but effective low profile fire lay. This is also a good fire lay when you might expect to leave rather quickly. You be good and when you get more info on the Silver Wolves classes, keep us informed. Thanks-
Excellent ! I'm from up north and we had 110°Fahrenheit temps for four days last year. Usually a hot day for us is 80°F- 90°F all those temps are too hot to be cooking over a campfire ! I'll use this and thank you very much every time I do !
Blackie, Great Video and Outstanding Information always thinking how to make it better and easier, bring back memories of Boy Scout in the early 70s .Thank You for sharing your Time and knowledge and wisdom and experience and passing on the Craft. You Are The Master Woodsman and Bushcrafter, I greatly appreciate your hard work. Tim L.
Great content. Can you remind the Silver Wolves about "The Shingles"? I've had face shingles 3 times in less than 3 years.....ended up with damaged trigeminal nerves, both sides, subsequently, I ended up in the hospital recently, diagnosed with Postherpetic Neuralgia, bilateral....both sides....mess is horrible.....Thank you in advance. Love you channel brother.
Blackie! I got your haversack in my hands just in time for a multi-day campout down here in the cold and wet winter of Tasmania. That haversack is brilliant! It kept everything inside nice and dry. Definitely my go-to haversack from now on. Next month I'll be doing a loadout with the knapsack. Still waiting on the shoulder straps I ordered to arrive. Thanks!
Another great Tip, you never disappoint. Curious about the cook set, is that a set or did you piece it together? either way do you remember the name? Thank you .
Back in the old Coleman Stove days of car camping, I would always set it up with the back towards camp and the wind to the sides to keep the heat away. As kids we dug a pit with digging sticks just to make hiding the ashes easier. Trenches would had been better as kids.
Great video I like how stealthy it is, I have diy for the silver wolves I took a small satellite dish and punched a nail sized hole in each end pounded 2 four foot long stakes into the ground about a foot and half then placed the satellite dish on top and nailed it to the stakes it does a good job as a raised fire pit for cooking on
For cooking, I like the trench fire best. We seem to have a very similar grill, and it is perfect for the trench fire. When it cools down a bit, could you show us something like a small version of the siberian log fire for a southern US state during winter.
I've got paleontological stones, rocks and pebbles layers down over here so every time I see someone dig in the dirt with a blade I cringe and physically feel the stones grinding against my cheap folding shovel. However, you could easily build something like this with rocks...
When I was in civil war re enacting, 0ur event area was only allowed a trench fire! We had to lift the sheet of sod and when done we had to put the sod back. So we would build fire at one end and rake down what we needed under to cook while keeping just enough fire to rake down to do the cooking/
hey Blackie by the tracks i found yesterday i've hogs starting to move in around me how do you deal with them when you're out on a camp other than a 357 or shotgun?
if you dont want to have to shoot them they have excellent hearing and smell but poor eye sight so if you see them or think you hear them clap your hands sing or in some way make a human noise and they will most times move away from you and leave you alone
@@BLACKIETHOMAS trust me Blackie i have absolutely no qualms on shooting a hog, that's good eating meat! i may not have phrased that too good for the thought train on it i was thinking more of keeping them away from camp so you don't get blindsided or are out of camp, i got told today at the gun store that bear spray or ammonia sprayed around the camp will work?
Dakota fire hole is my goto camp fire for a camp. Quick fire? If I don't got time for it just a small pit with a fire. Then again why would I not have time for a fire hole?

thanks for watching and thanks for the comments
Good tec
That's great Blackie, very useful Information. Appreciate the Lesson and video👍
nice job as always... 🙂

Great information. I've never seen this before.
Thanks for watching!
Another great tool for the toolbox, thank you.
You bet!

Thank you Blackie! Great video!
Glad you liked it!
Love to hear the hillbilly firework🧨🎆... LOL 🤣 😂
Good video Blackie , thanks for sharing , God bless !
glad to do it
Good knowledge as always, Blackie. Looking forward to giving this one a try.
Please do!
Good stuff Blackie. Plus you already have the dirt ready to cover the fire when it’s time to snuff it out and move on.
yes turn boot sideways and push over the mounds to refill fire is out and your site is clean
That is a good way to build a fire, easy to cover up and make hard for someone to know you were there.
correct a quick shove and the side will bury the fire
I’ve used the trench and it does work pretty good. I’ve since moved on with a Solo 1800 and stove, about all I use anymore.

Thank you Blackie, neat way of making a fire, I can see advantages to this method in several different situations.
thanks for watching
I remember making a fire like this at Fort Dix New Jersey to heat up some coffee in the morning. Thanks for sharing.
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY brother and thank you for sharing your adventures and information

Sounds great! i will add that to my video list
Nice invention. Now, when are you going to show us how to use a fire to cool off with?
hmmm now that will be a challenge lol
I've got paleontological stones, rocks and pebbles layers down over here so every time I see someone dig in the dirt with a blade I cringe and physically feel the stones grinding against my cheap folding shovel.
However, you could easily build something like this with rocks...
true but in my area rocks are not common our soils are red clay and sandy loam
I find a small shovel works just !
yes it would work well for this
When I was in civil war re enacting, 0ur event area was only allowed a trench fire! We had to lift the sheet of sod and when done we had to put the sod back. So we would build fire at one end and rake down what we needed under to cook while keeping just enough fire to rake down to do the cooking/
yep good way to prevent fire burn rings
The trench is a safer way to have a fire too and if you fill it with water and mix up any coals afterwards it’s done. Have fun be safe.
less chance of fire spreading

It wouldnt be easy here in Floridas sandy dirt, but it could be done with some mods, maybe a hanging grill
i am in the hard red clay of lower alabama i have to look for good soil to use for this
Dakota fire hole is my goto camp fire for a camp.
Quick fire? If I don't got time for it just a small pit with a fire. Then again why would I not have time for a fire hole?
thanks for watching

Have you ever tried to make a solar oven out of an emergency blanket?
yes it did not do too well for me
Damn are you filming in Ukraine 😅😅
lol nope lower alabama we rednecks love to shoot
Instead of digging if you have a lot of rocks. A person can build trench from rocks.
true in certain areas that would work best
Sounds like he is doing this video at a Trump rally.
Thanks
