I love the homage you give to that fallen giant of ash❤
What a nice set up man. I swear everytime I watch your videos the excitement just takes over and i want to pack those bags and go live in the woods😂
I've just bought my first tarp, it's not expensive but it'll do for now.
Can't wait to use it. 😀
Thanks Mike. 😄👍
You make fabulous videos! So relaxing, down to earth and inspiring. I am 56 years old and really want to do some outdoor camping, constructing and cooking etc. you could survive anywhere. Thanks a million for the inspiration.
Camp when and as you can! I backpacked, car camped and even backyard camped in my time. Retirement hit and my spouse began a second career as 'Grandma.' We relocated. I lost 15 years of planned outdoor life. So I did heavy landscaping, woodlot management, and barbecuing on the terrace.
Check out a channel called Bushradical if you like the idea of building a cabin he has built several small cabins. Also helps his voice is calm relaxing and informative as he builds.
Another channel is Outdoorboys he does some extreme Alaska camping in cold weather and warm weather and brings his kids along as well.
@@jamesellsworth9673 thanks for the inspiration! I realise the opportunities get fewer as we age!
@@robreesor5011 thanks very much!
Me too mate I feel the same way if you would be okay with I’d like to camo with you I’m only 18 but I think age is a number and we’d have a good time.
Just as good as always... i do really miss the pallet cabin though. Id like to see a new and improved one it was one of my favorite builds
That steak looked soooo good.
5pm Fridays 🎼🎵🎶to my ears 🙏 ty Mike love it👌
Thanks for the video, Mike. I hope to be getting out more this year myself. Can I ask where you got that frying pan, please? It looks perfect!
Amazing video Mike your video's are to sit down and watch while drinking a coffee
Great video, nice to see more progress on the bushcamp again.
Man! I just love these vids! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video from team totally awesome!! Loving the talking starting earlier in the videos recently!
Get some other bushcraft folks down to the woods for some crossover episodes! That'd be cool to see. Looking forward to the regular uploads, theres always wee things I learn here and there, I'd never thought to leave a loop in a tautline hitch to make it quick release. Useful and entertaining video, as per.
This episode enlightened ❤❤❤
Good content mate keep them coming
I've been looking for those small roller tarp clamps and have not had any luck on finding any or them. Do you remember where you bought them from or the name under what they may be marketed under?
Yes, me too!
Same here...pls share the little spezial secret
MAN SOME GRENADE FIRE STARTEER! 2 COOL 4 SCHOOL #1. DON'T BLOW UP YOUR HOOCH SHELTER :) .. GOOD SEEING ya AGAIN PAL, THANKS FOR THE OUTSTANDING DEMOS AS USUAL AND GOD BLESS, ... MIKE.
Loved the log rocket stove, ingenious 🙌
Dinner looked superb too 👌🏽
Cool video! Never seen one of this fire starters!
One log, good job.Started
That fire starter could be 1/3rd tat size and still light in a downpour.
that flame thrower would make a great road flare
Great
Nice One! 👍
You turn that tree root into an apartment Mike. Another great video and nice food Mike. Stay warm and dry!
Love your videos. What's your background? Military?
Hi Mike
Where did you get the camming tie-downs?
👍
I always have asparagus with steak!
just a few more ideas , by a river or lake, bit of fishing crayfish etc, total living off the land, no bought in food. a platform in a tree in the branches, just places where I as a disabled 66 year old man , can't really do anymore
👍
One thing i have never seen anyone do, is to make cooking appliances from scratch if you have nothing. Like a pot to cook in, it seems to be a lost survival skill. Sure a makeshift cup is fine but how do you make a stew without having a pot, or boil water for that matter. You can be stranded in a couple if unforseen ways, without much on you, what then?
Like deployed 👍

Very very nice!🤩👍

Looks like a wooden cave.
Instead of using steaks, why can’t you just notch wood so it does not rock back-and-forth😮
Love the sound of those cut logs when you stack them. They almost sound like musical notes.
be interesting to see what tunes he could play
I think some of those tree species are used for making instruments
Yes. I imagine if he arranged them properly, he could play a song on them.
Bach maybe ? Root notes even ?
@@twiglet2214 "root notes". LOL. I see what you did there. Well done, sir.
Tried to find the “rope roller clips” using that term but couldn’t find them, is it possible to post a link?
They look like a great idea.
bump i want some :)
Love steak
Such a nice camp !
I get a lot of positive energy from you. May you always be successful
Back to the overnights! Love these mate, they’re why I originally followed you back in 2021. Glad to see you back out in the field 🔥
Mike do you have a link for the roller clips they look totally awesome, thanks
This. I've been looking and trying to find the actual name for these. I've seen different styles so far on Amazon. Definitely interested in the ones that Mike is using.
Glad you asked that, i want some too.
Could you plz provide us the link for the rope roller clips
Great video though
Great info of survival skills
Reminds me of big black garbage bag shelters I made when I was a kid 😊 yours is of course much more sufficient ❤from Michigan
The clips on your tarp have me intrigued. I use Nite Ize Cam Jams. What are the ones you have Mike??
I was wondering why you didn’t put some leaves beneath the mattress
Hey Mike instead of bringing salt I would suggest if you can find it in your country A salt and spice mix called Herbomore Herbomir they're two kinds there's urban mere regular mix which has got dried herbs and salt and I think pepper mixed together and the other one is called Trokemaire which is the same mix plus has red chili flakes in it. They're great for seasoning foods using the table salt And it makes your salt go further you don't have to use as much Because you get the other spices added flavor to whatever you're cooking whether it's meat or vegetables. That way you don't have to carry as many spices you could add Ginger instead or dried garlic Or I need powder garlic powder that kind of stuff instead of just you know the chili flakes and black pepper and whatever spices you have besides your salt And the great thing about it it's sea salt. so you're getting more minerals and nutrients than just Plain old Potassium sodium chloride The potassium chloride Magnesium chloride other chlorides in it which add great flavor to whatever you're cooking. so the main one is called Herba Mare and the spicy one is called Trokemaire it's not too spicy but it does get a little bit of zest to it. one of the other things you could carry with you is like dried citrus rind like lemon or lime or orange or mixture of all three. it wasn't your vials. and it's easy to make your own citrus rinds you get yourself a microplanar And you hold the citrus in your one hand and you use the microplanar on top of the citrus So you can see exactly where you're taking the rind from On your citrus. you take it You spread it out on a piece of wax paper And let it dry or put it in dehumidifier or whatever they call them dehydration units and let those sit for like 20 minutes or an hour to get really dry pulls out all the moisture so that you can then mix them and match them however you want to add to your food and then you put in your vials and bring that with you so that's what I would suggest is forget the other vials to keep your tropical bears urban mayor at one file your black pepper your garlic and onion powder mixed And then your citrus rines in another that'll be all four vials with better ingredients for you to use when you're cooking and a camp situation.
Brilliant Video! This is the first time I’ve seen someone put a hole in the side to aid airflow. Clever! Another tip you could utilise is if you are out and about and you haven’t got a knife, axe or saw at hand, you can simply hammer sticks into the ground that you find laying around with another stick used as a baton, creating exactly the same thing, a Swedish Torch, a number of concentric rings of sticks (the amount depends on how thick the sticks are but I’d go no less than an inch per stick, pack them tightly with the middle rings lower that the rest, it’ll burn faster but it’s a quick and easy way to create a Swedish Torch when you have no tools and you need to cook or boil water quick. I’ve used this method a number of times when the weathers been bad and the ground and everything other than deadfall is sodden.
Cracking episode Mike.
Old school vibes
Where can I get the rope roller clips from please Mike?
Top job with the tarp shelter Mike, really liked that setup. To have a fallen tree like that is just perfect, you could make whatever type of shelter/homestead you want with that, it's a great shape.
That emergency match is ACE!!! haha its like a flare 😄. You shout workout a place where you can have it to try and boil a cup of water over it! That would make for an ace vid.
Great bed too matey. Looking forward to seeing what uour gonna build there next. Cheers Mike.
You should try a Kelly kettle brother, they are an awesome bit of kit. Used one for years now, and I love mine. Love the content and what you are doing. Keep up the hard work. You are very much appreciated.
Love you videos!
Lovely camping, I wish I was there 😍👌🔥🤘❤️🍻💯
Hello from a fellow outdoor UA-camr!!! I really enjoyed watching this!!
I really like watching your videos, it inspires me when I go into the wild to experience as well as when I drink coffee to relax, I watch your videos, a fallen tree you turned it into a place. sleep overnight, wish you always stay inspired For everyone
I'd tie a finger loop by the roller clips. 1 it makes it easier to pull & tighten & 2 will stop the cord from slipping out of the clip. Just an idea.
WRONG
stabilize your bed using the Log cabin method of connecting the perpendicular Logs
NOT with stabilizing pegs
Was it rollarflex tarp adjusters ?? Any source for these bits of ironmongery. Couldn't find anything via Google searches etc
Very peaceful, relaxing, cool, it even made me want to go camping soon, who knows. Maybe today I'll buy materials to make a new backpack, I hope it works out, I think my equipment in general is pretty great, even simple, just the backpack I feel a little lack of space, and I still don't have a pillow, but I want to make one out of wood, and I like to use juice boxes, I recommend trying them out (those boxes that are silver on the inside are a parallelepiped)
I didn't know the inner voice would perk up like a suppressed firestarter untill I saw your survival match. Interesting that I was shopping for matches for my survival gear today. So many options. I bought another mini torch. Still need matches for the inevitable power outages. I like having more than one option for "quick" fire starting.
Loving the content Mike!
Love all your vids!!! Big shout out from the Great White North that is Canada. Keep up the great work!!!
Rocket Stove: I wonder if three instead of four splits would be more stability for the kettle? Trickier splitting but you've got that nice hand axe.
great stuff! just would be scared about that root tipping over and squashing me😂😂😂
Good bushcraft tips and camp I love my hestia fast guide gloves but my 8 quid stanley ones go on for dirty ruff stuff😮 with wood and tools hesta for luxury comfort and warmth 😂
I would like if you made your woodland cabin 4 season. Plexy 3 pane window, insulate, fold up desk and bunk. To keep your bed from rolling, split the log.
Really like that you take advantage of the natural resources you have available.
In thinking about the trepidation you had over possibly puncturing the thermo rest. I would suggest a thin foam Roll up pad to use with it
Also like that you explained the dual height of the bed, and how much time, ( unedited ) it really takes.
I think you need to bring foldable mattress. So you don't need to worry about the popping sleeping pad.
Always enjoy your videos and learn something new every time with a new hack you demonstrate. Thank you.
No disrespect, but you speak of survival situations. If you was in a real survival situation you would not have half of the equipment you are showing on this video. Having said that your videos are very interesting and entertaining. Thank you
Where did you get those hook 'biner devices? I'd ditch my continuous tarp ridgeline if I had a couple of those. They'd be great for tarp tieout points instead of line locs.
@TAOutdoors Can I ask where you found the pulley clamp hooks for your tarp?
Enjoy your awesome video. Thanks for sharing.
Nice video and sounds. Question for you, how come you don’t make video together with the other guy you e built Viking house together?
That Grenade lighter be good for your snowy camp outs
Nice camp making use of the tree root. A closed cell foam pad under the air mattress would have given you peace of mind. I don’t like deadlines and won’t impose them on you. Post when ready.
I probably learn at least 1 thing new every video...ace
Ur vids are the best 😀can u give me some tips for bushcraft,I’m trying to get into bushcraft
Hi ya long time viewer here..wbere do you get the guyy line pulliys from .. cheers ...dino
lovely vid I'm wondering where in the uk that place is ?
Great video Mick really enjoyed it but why no jacks
Nice video, as always. those pulley toggles look handy, do you have a link to where you got them from?
Cutting down healthy trees in order to make youtube videos. Very mature.
نحن بحاجة الى ترجمة عربية أرجوك وشكرا لك
It’s great to see you have time in your real life to break away and make videos for your channel. 👍🏼
5:34 listen closer and you hear what we call in the states, a North American barking spider. 😂
Maybe a sleeping pad under your blowup mattress might stop or reduce the chance it could be punctured.
I'd love to see a video on a grid down scenario that shows how you'd escape and evade on your way to one of your bushcraft shelters. Maybe even bring along some others you've done videos with.
Hi great video , can I ask where you got the roller clips from handy bit of kit to have , thanks
Do you have link for those little rope tension hook thingies by any chance?
Try Thursdays, there is too much content at Fridays. And get ahead of the crowd!
I could see driving in four stakes around the outside of the rocket stove to hold it together and leaving them an inch or two above the top to rest the pot on…
Where can I purchase those gadget to easily adjust my taunt line?!
Please make a video tutorial on how to make a bed on a slope. Where I live, there is no even ground in the forest. Thanks!
where can I get some of those wee guy line pulley/clip things you used on your tarp please? Great wee things and I need them
