You open a window to a world I would never otherwise experience...your adventures are bursting with a spirit of adventure. I have some health issues that prevent me from doing such awesome stuff so being given the opportunity to follow your treks into the wilderness is truly uplifting ❤️😊💛
@Traveler's Tale it's good you have an avalanche beacon, but keep in mind, rescuers need to be within 300 feet or less from your position. If they can't find your possible position to begin with, they might never get within beacon receiving range.
I love it! I miss getting snow 5 feet 8 feet overnight dumping!! Growing up in maine, that was a weekly occurrence! Me and the neighborhood kids, we had massive snow forts!!
You're like a magical creature; so talented narrating, filming, building.... but how do you not freeze doing all of this in the snow?? I absolutely love your content- Netflix needs to give you a show🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Snow is a really good insulator and even without the fire, he would have been pretty warm. I haven't stayed in this deep of snow, but it is pretty warm even in a shelter with a foot of snow.
EPIC CONTENT MAN! Just found your channel subbed and ill be watching more! Just from this video i see a guy that loves nature and adventure. I think we would get along great! If your ever in idaho give me a holler! Its sad to see how many people have no idea about bush craft skills and servival shelter builds. We have really lost touch with our roots and what it used to take to servive. If the world goes to shit, its men like him and me that will thrive while others wonder when grocery stores will have food again or when the power will come back on. We are so used to every thing being provided. I personally prefer to live outdoors and am working on putting things in place so i can do just that. That being said get out doors and build your primitive skills. You may never need them but they may save your life one day. Its like having car insurance you may never need it but one day youll be glad you do!
Great job doing something I hadn't seen yet. Digging out and sleeping under the snow pack. It made me claustrophobic as hell a couple scenes, like when you just finished and hit bottom and look around and it's 4 straight walls going up 7 or 8 feet. Looked like a snowy grave!. But you have a great attitude which I really enjoy so I pressed on. Then, I wondered if someone could by passing by up top and just fall in! If you do this again maybe put up a flag or pole or something? Anyways, keep up the great work on all your adventures.
Absolutely love your videos! I have a passion for nature similar to you and some of the drone shots with the snow, trees and mountains are breathtaking! Fantastic work 👏👏 I personally prefer your solo adventures more, seems more calming and authentic. Can’t wait to see where else your journey takes you ❤ Stay safe!
Really enjoyed this, along with the talking. I was a bit concerned, but couldn't stop watching! (I've never been in snow) A unique take from other bushcraft camping videos.
You sleeping in that hole with snow all around you, was the craziest thing I have ever seen anyone do. If one part of that snow wall had fallen (especially after the fire heat) you would have been buried alive, not to mention the snow coming in all night long. Please be careful. Also put a red flag up so if anyone came by they would know you were there and would not fall in.
Fully agree with you. Very stupid thing to do really. Your own safety should be of paramount importance, moreso being on your own. Also your camp stove was too close to your fire. Think it out before you do things please. Take care
The fire actually strengthens it. It lets the innermost layer melt, and as it homogenizes with the bitter cold temperatures above, it results in a progressively thicker layer of ice.
If I have understood your location right it looks like PCT hikers will have less drinking water problems on this year. They will have a lot of river crossing issues instead. It is interesting to see how much there can be snow on winter time.
Then watch a lot of UA-cam channels like yours and just discovered you. This is a great video and you are fun to listen too so this grandma is now subscribed and a fan. Would love to know what part of the country you live in and where these are filmed at , And it is a dream I have to be able to go out and do this, Well maybe not digging a cave but going to difficult places in a van like yours is a dream come true for me. Yes yes I have a Honda element which I can't fit all the time and absolutely love. The blessed sweetheart pray God watches over you and keep your real safe and make them videos for us to enjoy. Thank you
It’s just my son and I really enjoy your videos, would really enjoy doing this sometime, you might think about a dog companion, I’ve been watching for sometime hang in there and have faith..
My wife was 4'11" and went winter camping in deep snow much taller than her! She used snowshoes... just as you can! Get some training, proper equipment and give it a try! You don't have to start out in such deep snows until after you get some experience and confidence!
Yes. I was so worried about that too. Last summer 2 teenagers did the same thing with sand near the water. It was not as deep as yours. They did not light a fire but it was not that far from the water. I think the waves might have caused vibrations which caused the collapse . Many people including their parents immediately tried to dig them out. It was not in time. They both suffocated and died. Please, please be careful. The new IPhone has the capability of using satellite for emergency phone calls. If not for yourself, do it for your parents.
Wow!! I know you are cute. But now I am thinking you are crazy!! Just kidding, You are so brave. I have never seen anything like this on UA-cam. Have fun but stay warm and safe. Greetings From San Diego.🌴And I will say, there is no snow here.😪
The one thing I think about is the risk of you running into a wild animal that might want you for dinner. Hopefully you have something to protect yourself with when doing this kind of adventuring! Otherwise I love the content keep it up :D
It took several thousand years for the snow to get that deep, based on ice core measurements. And you just dug through it in 3 minutes. Let me know if you find any WWII aircraft down there.
You open a window to a world I would never otherwise experience...your adventures are bursting with a spirit of adventure. I have some health issues that prevent me from doing such awesome stuff so being given the opportunity to follow your treks into the wilderness is truly uplifting ❤️😊💛
Your videos are soooo excellent. You kinda become mesmerised, especially with your voice and happy demeanour! Love from the UK.
Thank you so much!
The fact that you purposefully do this for fun is just wow 😮😅
I would be so scared alone in those circumstances. I assumed you have an emergency radio and all that good stuff. Great video, but stay safe!
I have an avalanche beacon too
@Traveler's Tale it's good you have an avalanche beacon, but keep in mind, rescuers need to be within 300 feet or less from your position. If they can't find your possible position to begin with, they might never get within beacon receiving range.
Very cool! Or more accurately, COLD! Your cinematography is quite good.
I love it! I miss getting snow 5 feet 8 feet overnight dumping!! Growing up in maine, that was a weekly occurrence!
Me and the neighborhood kids, we had massive snow forts!!
Yaaaaaaaaas....... been waiting patiently 😃...... watching now xxxx

NOPE NOPE and NOPE lol!
I was literally holding my breath watching you crawl out at the end, hoping you got out of that hole okay! 🙏🏻
Very well put together and produced video. Thanks for taking me away for a short while.
That is froogin’ nuts!
Hey man I’m that guy you met at Safeway the other day keep up the good work love your videos
Oh shit. Thanks!
Love ♥️ your videos , Take care of yourself & stay safe ,.
You are amazing , just take precautions ok but love your adventures 👍😍
Thank you, I will
That's incredible how u made a little igloo so far under the snow. Keep warm and safe. 💜

This was fun to watch
I love doing and watching others do epic shyt!
Me too haha
@@TravelersTale If we ever cross paths on our travels im up for something epic!

Great idea with this snow pit
I always wanted to build a snow cave and sleep in it. Thanks for sharing this so I won't have to freeze my butt off trying this experiment.👍
Your so chill
What a great crazy video! :D
You're a cool guy!
Thanks for another epic journey!
You bet!
That's so fun.
This is the definition of "living life." God bless you, brother. I wish i could be doing this.
Brilliant video as always, thank you
Thanks again!
Love what you're doing. Be smart, stay safe and ROCK ON!
It always amazes me how you work so hard for so long to build these shelters … and stay one night only hehe
Absolutely love your videos! I have a passion for nature similar to you and some of the drone shots with the snow, trees and mountains are breathtaking! Fantastic work 👏👏 I personally prefer your solo adventures more, seems more calming and authentic. Can’t wait to see where else your journey takes you ❤ Stay safe!
I truly love your videos and appreciate all you go through.
Thank you!
I liked the part with snow
Good for you kiddo! You're doing great! Have fun & stay safe!
Anyone who would climb into a 7' snow hole without the buddy system rule, is crazy!
Really enjoyed this, along with the talking. I was a bit concerned, but couldn't stop watching! (I've never been in snow) A unique take from other bushcraft camping videos.
This was an awesome video!! I wouldn’t even think to dig down and sleep in a snow cave!!
That’s exactly what I was thinking 🤔 Tacos.
Oh boy I know I have claustrophobia but incredible to watch your exploits but I m just happy to watch Mother Nature ,… be cautious out there 👏🏻
AMAZING VIDEO THAT IS SOME SNOW WOW
This video gave me so much anxiety!! But super cool to watch!
Lov it
How is this enjoyable, I’m cold just watching you? Great video though! ☃️
Winter Wonder Land
I’ve never seen snow like this, hopefully I get to experience this as well! Your adventures are so inspiring ✨
Totally hooked on your channel. Please don’t stop. Love from Atlanta, GA!
I’m from Atlanta also.

@@brandonleesanders I'm in Buckhead behind Phipps
@@brandonleesanders I just followed you on Twitter!
Well that definitely was an awesome little adventure 😊👍
Yes it was!

I agree with you! Hopefully this is his first and last time. Extremely unsafe. Praise God he made it out alive.
The fire actually strengthens it. It lets the innermost layer melt, and as it homogenizes with the bitter cold temperatures above, it results in a progressively thicker layer of ice.
It’s a quinzee and is very safe when built right. Have seen multiple camping UA-camrs use it as a shelter in the snow.
@@sulimanb1833 well it must be safe then, you saw some other rando on UA-cam do it🙄 There’s a whole lot of us Alaskans who disagree
Amazing snowfall! Awesome video, Brotha
Thanks bro!
First video of yours I have seen!! Propa good stay blessed bro!!!!
Inspired
I look forward to your vids, shared w friends who enjoy watching this kinda stuff also, now many of yall out there, super cool!!
That's crazy ,, stay safe my friend
Love The Deep Snow.🥶👍
Me too!
Yeah I Can Tell You Love It. It’s Great To Know These Bushcraft Shelters Can Help In A Way. Thanks Bro.👍
Admire the hardiness - think I would perish within the first night!
Actually love watching these videos keep them coming!
Cool vid man.
That was scary !
Subscribed recently and went through most of your videos,I’m loving this channel 😊 looking forward to your next instalment of this adventure
Coming soon!
I love your van bro, its so cozy and comfy ❤️
Love the content keep it coming you got real fans out here 👍🏽
I"M SECOND! nice vid

Great camping spotb😍
It's dangerous too! Be safe!
Watching your videos from South Africa where temperatures are usually around 25-30°C during this time of the year 🤣. Love your work mate!
What about building an igloo? Wouldn’t that be a little safer? I love your videos btw!

Awesome video, be safe
When i heard his voice in the intro i tought it was the guy from The outdoor boys For a second 😂 damn u got me well
You are one brave young man. It’s exciting to watch but I am just not that adventurous. I tip my hat 🧢 to you.
🤙
great videos, i used to love camping when i was in bavaria GE years ago. creepy but fun, of course we slept in the van in case of wildlife.
It’s just my son and I really enjoy your videos, would really enjoy doing this sometime, you might think about a dog companion, I’ve been watching for sometime hang in there and have faith..
I get happy when we get 1 inch of snow in Nashville lol
Love your “new” channel and your vids! I’m 5’1” and never would’ve made it through that snow! 😂
My wife was 4'11" and went winter camping in deep snow much taller than her! She used snowshoes... just as you can!
Get some training, proper equipment and give it a try! You don't have to start out in such deep snows until after you get some experience and confidence!
Looks super fun
Keep the good work my dude ❤🎉
God Bless you and your family and please keep safe 💙♥️🍀🐞😘🕊️🌳💕🕊️💖🌳🙌💓♥️🍀🐞😘💙💜❤️🦋🙏
3:26 Reminds me of when I dug myself into a deep hole in Minecraft. I hit Hell and unleashed the demons and died.
🤣😂
You can build a home under the snow...💖
New to your channel! I'm so jealous. We never get snow. I have to live though you lol
When you are oblivious of near death... subscribe to this lunicate
Guys this is called a snow cave, just google it, they’re perfectly safe if you follow a few simple rules to setting one up.
omg is that you bro get out of the snow
Please stay safe, I know youre sensible but rogue accidents happy.
Great video, thanks for sharing. That is alot of snow, never have seen anything like that, we may get 10-15 inches for an entire winter.
Haha your always in the snow, will you ever go to the desert and do some videos there in future?
I do but no one watches 😂
Wow nice 👌❤️
Please be very careful making those very deep snow caves to sleep in I think you would be better off making an above ground igloo type thing.
We used to call those "atmospheric rivers" winter storms back before everyone became a 😹
I still call them rivers
for survival or getting caught in a storm do you have to dig that deep to keep warm? Or did you just want to see how deep the snow was?
I suggest investing in an Insta360 for fast and light filming :)
Be careful in that snow if that snow collapses you be buried alive please don’t do that again ❤
That's what I was thinking
Yes. I was so worried about that too. Last summer 2 teenagers did the same thing with sand near the water. It was not as deep as yours. They did not light a fire but it was not that far from the water. I think the waves might have caused vibrations which caused the collapse .

This is what worries me as well, please, be careful
@@frankiesmom7703
I mean there are already wolves, the abominable snowman, Sasquatch, and gizzlies lmao
Wow!! I know you are cute. But now I am thinking you are crazy!! Just kidding, You are so brave. I have never seen anything like this on UA-cam. Have fun but stay warm and safe. Greetings From San Diego.🌴And I will say, there is no snow here.😪
😊 thank you
If that deep hole you dug caves in, no one will ever find you until all that snow melts. But I assume you have considered that?
The one thing I think about is the risk of you running into a wild animal that might want you for dinner. Hopefully you have something to protect yourself with when doing this kind of adventuring! Otherwise I love the content keep it up :D
Why worry about snow falling on your head? You’re wearing a hoodie and have a shovel, lol.
What if a yeti wanders along in accidentally falls in there with you?
It took several thousand years for the snow to get that deep, based on ice core measurements. And you just dug through it in 3 minutes. Let me know if you find any WWII aircraft down there.
Haha all the snow is just from December
Stay safe
I'm only here for the cuteness 😜
