You didn't put any Tobasco under your eyes! "That'll wake you up in the morning!" Salute✌👍
Have they taken down the selfreliance web site? I can't get it to work. Says site is no longer available
@@miketaylo7677 it worked for me maybe your internet broken
I'm going to go site in my rifle I will be sure to check this out when I get back
All corporal's other web sites load . If my internet was broken I wouldn't be able to watch his channel or get on any of his web sites
Hello, I learn a lot from your videos.
I'm filming a Bushcraft video in Korea,
I tried to give up because I lacked a lot.
After seeing your challenge, I gained hope.
I'm trying to make a great video like you.
Keep watching this man's videos he's very informative
I lived in a Tee-pee, one winter here in Saskatchewan (Canada). It was a trade my boss made with one of his customers, and he said I could sleep in it if I did some chores on the farm, to pay rent...LOL.
The best way to ensure there is no smoke is to have fresh air, but you don`t have to dig a trench, if you`re by yourself. You can build a pipe with rock and dirt on the side of the Tee-pee where you store your gear.
I used to put rocks in and around the fire, to absorb heat to radiate when the fire dies down, piling more snow and/or debris up the circumference of the Tee-pee, to provide more of an insulation barrier. In addition, I would hang blankets and hides from the poles, sleeping on top of a portion left on the floor. This created a funnel that the heat would radiate into, directly onto to you.
As long as you had a good supply of firewood, it was pretty comfortable. However, at one point that winter the temperature dropped to -40 degrees Celsius. I had more wood in the Tee-pee than anything else! Natural hides were the best to sleep on. Blankets work...but you need a lot of them. The Tee-pee was also set up in a wooded and partially sheltered area, so the wind wasn't that much of a problem. It was an interesting experience, to say the least, but I stuck it out for two summers and one winter. I was starting to miss the modern amenities of a heater home...with a bathroom.
Cheers.
I'd miss the toilet paper for sure...
@@rickw4160 ...ha, haaaa...me too! There was an outhouse I used, not too far away...and I did have my own toilet paper.
But back then I was bulletproof and gorgeous don't ya know...a young tough kid...nothing could get to me. That is, until you have to take a dump in a blizzard! Felt like I had icicles hanging off my ass! hahahaha.
Cheers.
I'm a 65 year old woman and I made a teepee from tarps it wasn't hard for me to do. I used rope and wrapped the top of poles together while they were lying down then I brought them up and put each pole in position adjust the poles accordingly and then I took my tarps and started at the bottom and wrapped them around the poles using only rope and twine I had a fire in the middle and I was very warm and comfortable. I use tarps for everything there better than a tent. P.s.I didn't cut the tarps I simply overlapped each one I used four large tarps my teepee was very big. I want to make another one for the winter but finding a place is difficult since the forestry service keep running me off 😆 🤣
I just tried making the teepee and I have no idea how he made the outside covering look so good. Mine looks like you asked a 5-year-old to wrap a present.
After he wrapped up the poles, he said something about making a fold on the back side.
Great video. I lived in a tipi a great part of my childhood. I had one military parent and one hippie parent we did a lot of bushcraft, survival living. Tents, handmade bushcraft cabin, school bus, van and a tipi. The tipi was my favorite but he got really cold in winter here in the rocky mountains in Colorado! I remember waking up to a black bear in our tipi laying next to me!! Lol harmless bear trying to warm up but it was terrifying. I love watching your videos. You learn something every day and I learn a lot of new things from you! I am excited for spring because I am going to start my own journey with bushcraft survival camping trips. I'm a 35 year old women with severe anxiety watching you eases it and has encouraged me to get out and do it and teach my 9 year old daughter.
You woke up with a black bear sleeping next to you by the fire.... No wonder you have anxiety!
This was a great video. We had a retired military gentleman that use to live in a teepee he made out of tarps near us. He vented the center with an umbrella. He also dug out the center about 3 ft deep and had a ledge around that about 2 feet higher. He choose to live that way too. He said he enjoyed the simpler way of life. He liked it to be just him and his dog. He lived there for many years until his passing. He didn't like to except any help until the end he allowed people to bring in propane heaters to keep him warm. I think about him every time I pass by where his camp use to be.
When driving through the mountains I catch myself looking around at things and thinking about what I could make shelter with just from watching your videos. I look forward to Sundays and watching your videos.
In real TP's there is an inner liner that is tied to the poles on the inside. The bottom edge of the liner is pulled to the outside and kept in place with rocks, soil, or lengths of logs. This allows the breeze to funnel the fires smoke straight up and out.
There is also a moveable pole that allows the flap of the TP's cover to be moved to direct the smoke away. This flap is what moccasins are made from. The smoked leather is used for the soles of the moccasins, and they are extremely durable.
I went through some really hard times about 10 years ago and had to live in a teepee for about 6 months. Was in the middle of January in a really bad winter. Had freezing rain and temperatures in the teens (here in Texas we ain't built for that kind of cold). I built my bed off of the ground about a foot and a Dakota fire pit type of fire place inside which helped with the smoke. Also lined my walls with leaves and as much foliage as I could for insulation. It was a miserable few months but I'm still here to tell the story. Also a piece of water hose can be a life save for those 2am piss breaks when it's sleeting and 40mph wind outside lol
Blessings to you. Glad you're around
Camp looked great. Snow looked even better. Overall I'd say Corporal's highly motivated and truly dedicated. (you have a certain sense of peace/contentedness about you and its good to see) Thanks for another good lesson. Semper Fi
rough, tough and can't get Enough!
Teepees have an inner liner that is spaced a few inches inside the tripod. Air will go under the outside layer and hit the inside layer and flow up. Keeps smoke at bay and makes it much warmer or cooler during the summer. Love your design. I think I would have made a ring about the size of a bike rim and hung it from a tree then tied the tarp to the ring and spidered it out.
Anything that keeps me warm and dry isn’t garbage. Great job in my humble opinion.
Camping doesn't have to be expensive. I like how he didn't cut the tarp at all but preserved it for other projects.
This weeks’ video has given me a project I can work on while taking another cycle of fun filled chemo. The Doc said no overnight camping, but luckily there’s an old pasture I can spend the day trying my hand at building one. 🤙
Subbed! Silly Dr though, the dark doesn't effect you does it? ;p (my point being that they should have said something about temp or number of ours or make sure you are with a group instead, and I totally get you were probably just paraphrasing)
I should have mentioned no overnighters due to the single digit weather we have been having here in SW Virginia. The chemo just wipes my immune system out. And I used to frequently get mild admonishments for canoeing in bad weather, or hiking the AT in a snow storm the day before a plate was put in my head(gotMRSA when the staples were removed).
900,000 subscribers. You are helping 900,000 people get out into the woods and practice new skills every week. I don't know how you do it, but keep doing it.
just a pet grip here. i see a lot of channels doing camp meals and most tend to be a packet of this with maybe some hunted, fished or foraged food. not so many with making meals from long life foods you can carry yourself.
i know pack stored long life meals are handy and easy, do no disrespect. but for people into how others survived and what they stored and how they cooked those stores is interesting and probably way cheaper. plus im sure all the preppers would like a few recipes.
One thing I like about this it’s a really inexpensive option. You know, might be a good idea to keep a 10’x20’ tarp in one’s vehicle. Wouldn’t take up a lot of room and good for an emergency situation. Where I live it’s cold in the winter and it’s an earthquake risk as well, not to mention the risk of war or
economic downturn.
Shawn, this was great! Your adventures always make my weekend. Today was extra special. My wife and I were caring for our granddaughters when I saw that you had posted. Radke the three year old has recently developed an interest in the tying of knots. I asked her if she would like to see grandpa's friend Shawn building a Teepee with ropes an knots. She sat on my lap mesmerized. There was a brief explanation that this was not a video chat, just a video. The waving and helloing stopped. Miss antsy pants quietly watched the entire video followed by three of your knots tutorials before her toys called her back. When we got home I ordered Her Para cord in her favorite colors. I believe we'll wait a bit on the Mora, SAK, and Bic. Your teaching reaches every age. Thanks for what you do.
I bet my little Grand Daughters would love to do something like this. Another job for Grandpa :)
Anytime with grand dad is a keeper. Mine was in the boy scouts as one of yhe leaders. My mom read his books. But im sure they will have a ball.
It's nice when you can go back home to a nice, warm, house and bed with running water. Count your blessings. Thank God for all you have. Just the simple things like clean running water. Do you realize how many things we do with clean water? Hydrate our bodies, use the bathroom to remove waste, wash our face, brush our teeth, bathe, cook, clean food, make coffee or tea, wash dishes, do laundry, wash our hair and body, mop the floors, take medicine, a lot. Water is the stuff of life.
It dawned on me as you were pushing the leaves against the bottom of the tee pee, that you could leave some of the tarp material along the bottom edge cupped upward with some stones or a branch underneath, to catch water. Morning dew, snow or rain could be caught if one didn't have any water with them.
Love watching these videos every week. Always another creative twist on building and sleeping outside.
Corporal, I have only this to say:
I have been following you for quite a while now, and I have decided that no matter WHAT KIND of shelter you show us how to build, as long as it will keep out my wife and her lawyer, then that's a damn good design in my book.
Mac and cheese is already on the stove.
Probably the best survival structure design since you can have a fire inside safely. Thanks for sharing.
It seems like the teepee is the better tarp shelter, as compared to all others, since you can bring the fire inside with you
Well who hasn't wanted to build a teepee in the woods? So much cozier than a lean to. I love the way you post your videos regularly and keep a consistant format. It shows respect for your subscribers and makes for a better learning experience.
I must say that I am a big fan. I also must say that I love how many difference improvised shelters you can come up with.
From someone who put up a teepee many times, you take your 3 main poles, tie them together then flip the center pole over completely before standing the poles up. This naturally keeps the rope tight and properly placed. The poles we used were 22 feet long and if done properly, one person can do it alone.
Awesome information , I stepped out 22feet approximately 7 meters estimated from my steps ,wow big poles , I do understand the need for big poles though when a family lives in one etc , I think the teepee is an amazing home , even just a smallish one like in the video gets a person out of trouble for a shelter for a few days or how long one wants to stay in it even though it’s not a traditional one , 👍
Or anchor on a leaner bro
How big a tarp for 22' poles?
@@josephg.3370 We didn't have a tarp, it was a canvas form made specifically for that size pole with precut door and smoke flap.
@@justnana2256 Thanks!
Nice thing about a teepee is you can have the fire inside!
Looks like a better solution than a lean-to in poor weather. Thanks Corp.
Not wishing to sound as if I were putting down the people who have been stuck in blizzards along our freeways lately but if they just carried basic survival items, their stays would have been better. My family was coming back from Alaska with two kids younger than 2 years old and got caught behind 5 jack knifed semi in a 3 day blizzard in North Dakota in 1972. There was a small bar nearby where people stayed as much as possible. Few amenities. 4 Alaskan Malamutes back in our van who had to be walked and fed 3xs a day. Fun times. Best part- only 15 miles from our end goal. Saving grace - semis kept engines running and set up 2 hour each schedule for folks to sleep in their cabins. Also, despite their age, 1 was 4 months old, the kids were good. My husband has passed but he always prepared us for eventualities. If you insist on traveling in bad weather, be prepared. That's why I watch you - to keep the knowledge alive.
I'll admit I rarely keep more than a first aid kit and inflater in my car but I'm getting craftier ideas for a true car survival kit.
Awesome.
My OCD, and sense of future utility, blesses you for not compromising the tarp to get your cone.
You have quickly become one of my new favorite people. Your hardened brilliance of war, combined with the petty wants of camping newcomers creates one of the most wholesome things I've ever seen. I pray for your success dude.
Brother you are with out a doubt the best outdoor instructor I've ever seen. The way you come up with new videos that are interesting and fun is amazing. I'm a fan for life thanks for all the hard work you do for all of us. I salute you sir.
A favorite concept for cold weather camping. Thank you for measurements and math included.
Fun fact if you dig a ditch to the outside from the fire pit and then cover it with bark you can feed the fire with outside air without it coming in every crack in the tarp. Really helps to keep the place warm
Great tip
I would say that you are a very patient, kind, giving and generous person as demonstrated by making this video. You have endured the pubesant critisim of spoiled adolesants who, without question, need to have their devices confiscated by their parents or guardians; as well as some irresponsible adults who need to get a life. My hat is off to you, sir.
A tee-Pee is a great portable shelter, that why the Plains Tribes used it. Of course with no trees on the plains, they drug the poles along with them, making travois to carry the buffalo hide covers, and other gear.
Heh, Marines and Tabasco sauce...well, at least I haven't seen you put it in the coffee, yet! 😁
“Teacher, when will I ever use this math in real life?” “When you’re in the woods building a teepee with a Walmart tarp. Now do your geometry.”
No maths teacher ever tells you the application of maths 😂 That's the best thing about English, the application is (or at least should be) obvious 😂
😂😂😂
@@MisterNineEleven um... OK 🤣
Yes lol😂
Whaaaaa. You are watching him. He is out doing it. Whaaaa. Great Job with that teepee.
Live how you made that little tug stick to tighten your knots on the poles. ❤ Made me smile. I forgot my dad used to do that until I saw it on your video.
Having been in many a sweat lodge, I'd heat some stones in the fire (as long as they're igneous rock, you don't want them exploding like shrapnel) and then bury them in the dirt under the sleeping mat for added comfort and warmth.
However, as you brought in the coals from the outside fire, you managed to bring the interior temperature of the teepee up to a very comfortable range.
Even without the heated stones, I would still dig a shallow trench and filled it with soft leaves before I put my mat down. Sleeping on the rock hard ground is seldom conducive to slumber and I'm a sucker for making things as comfortable as possible even in the most primitive, temporary situations.
Years ago my domestically abusive now ex husband drove me out of the house with no coat on New Year's Eve and I spent the night in the woods curled up in the roots of a giant Cedar tree and buried under a blanket of leaves that kept me cozy and warm. They have wonderfully insulating properties.
I love how you are constantly looking after the common men in reference to money. I had some surgery over the summer and have been building back up, unfortunately my bush crafting will be off of an ATV from now on. I have been watching a lot of your old videos and I love it. Thank you , for all of the time and effort that you put into this for us.
So sincerely succinct. DITTO. you'll have a blast w doing Extensions to your Rig w tarps and a wood heat source. Saw vid w a 10x 20 tarp switched from a back hatch out w a buddy heater. Wood for me
Couldn't have a fire pit in van,, BUT, have TARPS AND WOOD!!!!!!!
Pulled back seats out of a 2001 Mercury Villager ESTATE. GOT A FREE jujitsu/wrestling mat free, cut w a serrated knife.

I’ll tell you what the Nenet reindeer herders in the high Arctic of Siberia make these teepees going up and down look easy. They take them down and set them up within an hour in the middle of blizzard conditions and have a nice warm tent going by the time everything is put away. There are some amazing documentaries on YT here about them.
Yep at least you aren't cold that's the entire point of the teepee survival
FYI - My Cherokee uncle lived on the Pecan Bayou in a teepee in Texas during the Great Depression. The material was made from animal skins. Each night he made two small fires -- one in the center and one off center where his feet would lie during sleep. When he had a good stack of coals at the second firehole, he would cover it with soil. The nested coals would keep him warm all night. The Cherokee have a saying -- "Foolish man makes big fire. Can't get close to. Can't get warm. Wise man makes small fire. Can get close to ... and stay warm." Thanks for the great video. BTW: Last time I tried a nested fire, my feet stayed warm and I slow-cooked breakfast all night in the nested coals. I awoke rested and dug up and ate a warm breakfast. It was a great way to start a cold winter's day.
I'm part Cherokee and our elders have much to teach. Love listening to the stories and learning.
Always keepin it real. Salute to Cpl. Kelly for showing us that we can bug out on a budget or just get the hell away for a day or so without breaking the bank
First, awesome reference to the Count from Sesame Street.
Love the Tepee! Will likely build that this Sunday. Watching you measure out has me thinking that I’ll pay more attention to my own body proportions for measuring. Thanks for the pointer on the water content of snow versus ice, as well as the quick dinner concept.
As always Kelly, outstanding! Cheers
This is by far my favorite channel how to post apocalyptic dyi , coming from someone who doesn't have a lot of money single woman with a cane corso 150 lb dog when I watch these other videos I just got kind of pissed off because you need a lot of extra money this sort of stuff I do every summer anyways watching this relieves my stress a bit with whatever is inevitably coming thank you thank you thank you. It's already hard enough to make ends meet let alone making ends meet and prepping also you are funny as hell
Cheers for another video you absolute legend! Keep up the great work, appreciate you so much.
Right on 👍
If you really want to go dirt cheap, lumberyards usually have lumber tarps they will give you for free that they usually throw away. A 12'x24' makes a hell of a Tipi. I usually put the black side out and the white side in so you can see inside.
Great video 👊🏻
Good Tip Thx.👍
I use a lot of tarps at my work. I don't dump them until they are literally falling apart. Good tip my friend but just some advice that they won't have much life left in them.
This is the third or fourth time ive watched this. I think that its one of the better shelters I've been on the tube. Simple, roomy, effective. Also should be simple to make larger if need be. Well done.
In the 90s in the uk we had newage travlers I lived in a thing called a bender we used to we've hasel poles in to a dome shape then put ruber tarpoling over I lived in one of them for just under 10years we put wood burner in them to keep warm with threw the winter nice video all the best
I will probably never camp out, (definitely not my thing), but I learn some interesting problem solving skills from your videos! Your videos are relaxing and fun to watch! One thing for sure... should I find myself in a survival situation, I have the information to overcome! Thanks Corporal!
OUTSTANDING AF AS ALWAYS!!! I can't figure out how other nimrods have higher viewership than you? It just goes to show you there are alot of ignorant people that have no idea what they are watching. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!
yep they must be the best
good to hear count again. takes me back a scary long time ago
Thanks, I owned a 17ft teepee for several years. The poles were 21ft long.
It was a great shelter once you got it up but man! What a pain in the A$$ to haul around. I had a roof rack on my van for the poles.
A trailer set up to store the cover and gear and to haul the poles on would have been lots better.
But I had the van so I used what I had. It was great fun.
I have a 12x12 canvase wall tent with a stove jack and woodstove now. I need to use it more often.
That tarp tent is a doable thing though. Lots better than shivering under a tarp with no real heat source.
How many people do you think you could have crammed in there on a 12 degree night? 3 or 4 I bet.
I'm going to have to try that just to see how it goes.
Thanks again.
John Davis Jax Fl
Awe the old blue tarp and Tabasco on everything. Loved doing that as a kid. Might have to bring the kids out this week after they watch your vid. Learning as a family. Cheers great vid
Getin’ closer to that million, Corporal. I believe this year you’ll get it.
Another great vid👍
I feel like a few good size rocks around that inside fire pit would absorb heat from the fire and help keep the temp up and more steady with less wood, thought for next time.
I love the reference to the "Count", ahh so many generations that were privileged to learn about the world through Sesame Street.
you are like a few buddies I know that randomly break out in a grappling match to establish dominance. also your videos grow on me brother. keep it up
Freaking awesome. I really like the basic builds with basic tools.
man this is actually pretty neat, imagine if you had to keep a small family warm in the winter in some emergency situation, I always have a tarp in my truck!
That's a great idea!
Traditional are double walled. The inner wall is shorter on the bottom so that air can draft in and help draft air through the top to cut down on the smoke.
Outstanding!
AF
Thanks very much mate, I was particularly interested in the idea of a shelter with interior fire. Here in my part of the UK, we've no snow yet, but the idea of snow makes a covered fire seem important. Cheers!
This is the second night in a row I’ve watched your channel. You have so many ingenious ideas for different events. Great knots. Great job on the teepee with what you had to work with. I had the privilege of watching the Indigenous elders and younger’s actually build a teepee. It was a work of art.
Some people in the comments are just rude. If you think you can do better then go do it and make your own video so we can critique it. I don’t understand the need to leave nasty comments. If you don’t like it just watch something else. 🙄
In the military we are trained right away how to ignore jagovvs ✌🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻👍🏻
Tabasco, I put that crap on everything. Earned my like.
I appreciate the time you put into these overnighters. You keep me learning every week. Awesome, AF.
I saw in another video you talking about getting rid of the background noises like birds.. Please keep those noises in your videos. Seriously calming for someone like myself that misses nature(I live in Vegas now)..
If we use additional reflector tarps, perhaps two, then we could line the inside of the Walmart 10x20 tarp with the reflector side inward reflecting the heat back down on us. So one 10x20 tarp w two reflector tarps. Maybe 3 reflector tarps maximum. Add two Pathfinder Queen wool blankets inside a bivy w a ground pad & I'm as snug as a bug in a rug :)
Another upgrade, have an additional pole on the outside to be used to open & close a door. Raising & lowering the reflector tarp wedged between the inner poles will lead to rips & tares. Not sure how I'd go about attaching a cover to an exterior pole as well as to the outer tepee but I'm sure where there's a will....
I’m a 48 year old retired army vet and I cannot think of anytime I’ve not used Tabasco I was let down last week when my son came in from Fort Polk with a mre that did not contain Tabasco lol
Outstanding budget friendly camping!
Cool emergency shelter .
But let’s be honest the people who’d trying to make these would appreciate going through the entire process .
That means showing the ties to secure it tightz
Hi Shawn. Always learn things from your videos. Keep them coming brother. Much respect. The meals always make me want to chew on my phone man.
I like that video a lot. It shows a way to make a winter semi-permanent cam site for 2 or 3 persons without the nee to spend a fortune on equipment. A good way to enjoy the outdoors, and I just hope you apply a no-trace philosophy to it.
Your « weight watcher free » cuisine is incredibly defying any doctor’s advice but is a must when spending time outside. I am French and would make some tuning to it but it « smells » good any.
Happy new year and cheers from a former corporal in the French marine troops …..2ème RIMA
Sundays are for the Corporal! Keep up the great work and awesome content Shawn! By far the best channel on the tube!
Absolutely correct.
I know of no one that does what he does and expends so much energy to do it...all for our benefit. Pretty damn cool!
I heard you in a monster truck rally commercial voice
I’d like to see more tarp shelters built with a cheap tarp like this. Like a trek pole tarp tent with a 10 x 10 blue tarp like this 10x20
Awesome stuff per usual. Love the tp. Would like to see more shelters with fires inside and your takes on them. I know it becomes difficult to not light your self on fire with most natural materials. But I have faith in your knowledge and ability. Thanks again. Enjoy the hell out of it!!!!
I recently viewed a Russian bushcrafter who split a 24" x 18" dia billet. Wrpped in wire & started the fire in the center. Then placed a straight pc of metal pipe (looked like electrical conduit) into the center & attached a bent pc to it an fed it into his tent.
Although I do like this fire inside the enclosure concept.
Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
These videos are really helpful. Im an avid hunter and always keep gear in my truck and bag in case something happens. Colorado snowstorms while elk and deer hunting can get nasty at anytime. Plus just generall knowledge is a good thing to have. It nice to have different ideas on how to do things in different situations even if it's only needed for a few hours until a storm blows over. Love the videos and hope people really soak these up. You never know, you might end up saving someone's live someday.
A consistently maintained small tipi/teepee fire with a good bed of coals will warm the ground up to 4’ down. So even if the fire burns down through the night the heat will rise from the ground and keep it warm. I’ve always thought about using a tarp and wondered how it would work, a typical canvas one is very heavy and difficult to raise alone. Thanks for sharing!
By far, another favorite. Thank you for this trip to the woods. Peace and happy blessings in the New Year.
Great demonstration....lashing absolutely perfectly dressed up, great advice on the fire too. Natives there used to say white man make big fires and sit far apart, yet Native Americans made small fires and were closer together. Less firewood used, less work. Amazing what you can do with a cheap tarp and knowledge. Great video as always buddy. Can't beat a warm shelter when the temperature drops
Tabasco...I put that crap on everything!!! Best line of the day!
I used to wild camp 🎪 a lot and I would carry coal in my rucksack. I'd burn wood during the evening but at night I'd burn coal 🔥 Build the sides up around the fire with rocks soil and turf to slow the burn rate of the coal and it would last all night. In winter I could sleep on top of my sleeping bag and in the morning the fire would still be lit. Just give it a stoke and some bits of wood and ready to cook my sausages bacon beans eggs on. I used to cook on a piece of slate over the fire so it didn't need a cook pan or plate etc. everything you need is already there waiting for you if look for it. 🔥
A true bushcrafter.❤
Congratulations on your success! I remember when you were first starting out with about ten thousand subs.
You fulfilled a need for me with this video. I was wanting simple way to be able to have a fire in a shelter to survive in cold weather.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing the food idea. That's a lot cheaper than the dehydrated meal bags I usually get.
Oh yeah, let's do this. I will be trying something like this. Soon. Thank you!
Absolutely love this video. I've been wanting to do this in my backyard for my grand daughter and I. You've made it look less stressful. Thanx for sharing.
Awesome program from one corporal to another my grandkids like it I like it I was military United States army fort drum 10th mountain and the show is very interesting need more programs like this I have a little bit of woods and I take the grandkids up we make lean to we make everything out of sticks and nature
Corporal you da man
Another awesome video another 7 days have past. Solo overnighter in the woods ! Let's go !!!
Best practical, tested and tried shelters! Shawn you are totally the best!!!
This is by far the easiest and best type of shelter to make and sleep in. With a fire inside. Big time.
And like you said, cheap.
I use bamboo, I have some 10 foot pieces that I use. I actually use them as a sled to get were I'm going. Fantastic. I don't see many people using a TP design. Codey Lunden uses this type. That's the guy that was on dual survival.
I loved that show
Another excellent how-to video. Been watching these for over two years, and they are always entertaining and informative. Please keep up the amazing work!
I enjoyed the teepee build. There is elegance in its simplicity and it gets the job done. Congrats on hitting 900K.
I wait all week just for you corporal. This is by far the most efficient design, for staying warm etc...Teepee's are even used above the arctic circle...to keep nomadic people warm and dry. Great stuff!
