Plants and Bears and a Cabin in the Rockies

  • After going into the bush to find edible plants, Greg realizes there are bears roaming dangerously close his cabin. He decides to track them down, hoping to capture up-close footage of a HUGE Grizzly!
    Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

    Greg, I grew up in the Rockies too...but a bit south of you in Colorado. I find your videos immensely entertaining, educational, and satisfying. Thanks so much for doing them. This is one of my favorites. By the way, the area near Steamboat Springs, CO was my grouse hunting ground. I loved to hunt but the grouse were always tough. On one of your recent videos you explained why. I’m 51 now! I never knew that!

    11:03, that deer moss( old man's beard), behind you on the downed tree, is great for issues with your feet. Boil water, put it in the water, take off fire, step for at least 5 min. and wrap the moss on your feet, and wash them with the water, once cooled enough to use.

I started off by getting some Peterson Field guides for my area and since then I have been hooked. I grow mushrooms now, all types, and love to forage for plants too.

There's more to the wilderness than just "being there" :-)) Loving your vids! Happily anticipating the next one.
