LINKS BELOW:
Join me for a good time in the woods practicing solo bushcraft and camping alone in a tipi overnight. We'll do some good camp cooking with a Mexican inspired bush pot meal and cover many basic bushcraft skills from fire making to knot tying. The tipi I use is the Tipinova from OneTigris and is a good lightweight and waterproof tipi for backpacking and solo overnighter camping trips.

Enjoyed the campout video. Connie and I both sure have a hankering for the snow to be gone here so that we can just walk out through the woods on our feet without the need for snowshoes etc. We both loved listening to the Spring bird sounds on your video. It will be some time yet before we are able to enjoy that here.

I carry a small amount of fat wood in my fire kit along with a couple of fire straws just in case I run into this same problem. I thought that that fat wood you found looked wet. When you were sawing it it did not seem to be powdery sawdust like dry fat wood. I live in NW Florida so we are use to WET ground and fuel that you have to dry out. (Fire straws = heat sealed 1/3 of drinking straw with a petroleum jelly soaked large cotton ball stuffed inside. Clip the end and light and you have a 7-10 min candle that will dry out kindling. And it weighs nothing to carry 2 or 3 of them.)

I would commend you for know and using every resource available and it is also good to use multiples at the same time. I should have made a bird nest to begin with and added the fat wood in there as well. I could have ventured back into the swamp are and gotten a little river birch bark also and ensured a first run success. I have never seen fat wood do this before but you learn something new every trip. Thanks for your your time and interest Shawn!

Corporals corner sent me here. Glad he did! I do have a question for you: i always cook and store food away from where i sleep, so i don't have uninvited guests (especially the ursine kind) stop by at 3am. I've noticed both you and shawn Kelly seem to cook right by where you sleep. Obviously, you both know what you're doing so I'm wondering if you just live in an area with few bears or if maybe you're storing your food off camera? Or is there something about bear safety that im just ignorant of? I'd love to not have to go to all the extra effort if it isn't really necessary! Thanks for the great video!
@blackhatbushcraft
@blackhatbushcraft 4 жыл бұрын
That's a great question Mark. So in my area there are very few bears. I have only seen one in my county in my entire life. We are starting to have more move into my area as I am told but I haven't seen it for myself. That is why I am more relaxed with food and cooking in camp. Many of Shawn's videos are filmed in Ohio which is the same. There just isn't much of a bear population up there. If I were in an area with a healthy bear population, I would absolutely take the precautions you do. If your area is such, keep doing what you are doing. Thanks for taking the time to tune in Mark!

Great video! I'm jealous, I'm stuck on vacation here in Vietnam. Been in Vietnam for 6 months and am looking forward to coming back home for some bushcraft dirt time. Hopefully we'll be able to get a flight out next month. Until then we'll be roughing it a the beach! Yeah I know BooHoo!

My takeaway is the toggle method for adjusting the height of a cookpot above a fire.

I haven't ever seen anyone else use this exact method before. It is something I sort of taught myself years ago and have been using since. I have a video from way back showing it in detail if you are interested. I hope it serves you well!
