    Mike I am saying special prayers for you Sir! I recognize the distant look you gave as you scanned the area, that feeling will give way to appreciation for the beauty of Mother Earth and not her dangers.
    Great video Young man, I raised my kids camping four seasons and my youngest son was the only one to join on cold camping nights. Two weeks ago when the cold brought high winds and snows to Iowa I strapped on my snowshoes and headed into the woods north of the farm. I still am a believer in wool and even though i didn't hike long putting on a dry pair of wool socks before bed made it so much more enjoyable. Inside my tarp shelter I set up my Big Agnes Elk Park and Buffalo Park sleeping system to inflate and fill long before I bedded down. The extra insulation was nice and my last walk into the cold still got my blood warmed and flowing. In the morning over my stove steam rose from my hot chocolate and the bowl of oatmeal as I sat watching the sun rise. I tell you this not to impress you because long before our fathers were born men and woman survived the elements with far less then we have now. The serenity of a night out in nature cannot be topped.
    Whether short views in Montana mountains and long sweeping valleys or of snow blowing hard over the top of a tarp over head, being in the cold world has so many gifts that must be enjoyed in person.
    The same ramen I used to extend my C-rations and MREs are still used today as filler with no other benefit to the body. Simple foods sustain a body far more than any fancy meal with garnish, that's a fact. Thank You for sharing the journey.
    With Love and Respect, You are in my prayers

    Would recommend a folding saw Mike for cutting up wood in camp, much easier to work with than a hatchet. You can cut up fallen dead wood really quickly with one.

    • @1972Konaboy

      And I guess it's also much safer. I ditched my hatchet in favour of a saw a long time ago when I started to do solo multi-day hikes. On the other hand - this MKC piece looks so good.

    Please make more of these! There are many bushcraft (mostly European) AMSR backcountry channels. I love to just let them play for hours. It is great to see one with gear and skills easily accessible to me. I like to get into the woods as a break so that I don't have to talk (I talk all day in my job). This video made me feel like I was right there. Thank You!!

    So relaxing, great video. Love the quiet. Reminds me of my youth, did a lot of solo winter camping because no one else would bear the cold. Did this one trip -20° F for 4 days. One of the best solo trips I ever had. Second black powder deer season in northern Vermont. I hauled a plastic toboggin instead of carrying a backpack. Gears a lot better now. Spoiler, no deer.

    I remember one episode of Alone when a contestant was walking with an uncovered axe, hauling back a tree. He tripped, fell, and gave himself a nasty wound that almost made him have to tap out. Seeing Mike walk back from cutting down a tree in that snow, with several unsteady steps, made me nervous! Cover your axe when not in use, everyone! AWESOME VIDEO and much respect to MIKE and his organization!!!

Throw some snow shoes, crampons, maybe my bark river quartermaster or my Winkler Crusher Belt Knife, adding the rugged touch of leather sheath and holster and our ice axes and in search for the best real estate these human bodies can find. Hard work but so fun. Forces you to see the miracle of creation, life as intended.
