Two other tips to go with this. First, line the well with small rocks so that you're not disturbing dirt every time you dip your cup in. Second, place a flat stone (or bark/plank) over the top of the well when not in use. Otherwise it will attract insects and animals (and the virus/bacteria they carry).

@Aniwayas Song 4in thin wall PVC would be ideal for that. And typically they come in 10ft section. Theoretically: if you were in a “grid down” situation in a once populated area, you could potentially acquire some of the pipe. Cut it into small sections, and have multiple mini wells. The pipe is thin enough to manipulate with small hand tools. But is designed to be buried. A solid solution if you’re trying to find water, but cant start a fire, in attempts to “stealth camp”

@@sebastianfinch6611 in the U.S. "gipsy" is a term used to describe someone of nomadic lifestyle. I guess if you say the word as a means to degrade Romani people then yes, it would be a slur. I think that context is key here. In this sense there's no way to tell if the user is saying gipsy as a blanket statement for a race, or to describe nomadic action. But based on the context of the video we can safely assume this term is used to describe an action that would be performed by a nomad.

I live in the mountains- when we make a spring, we figure out where he underground spring is running and dig a coyote well so it fills it. Then we line the walls of the well with field rock cementing the cracks closed. This is the first in a series of catch tanks that will get larger and larger as you get closer to the house or wherever you're routing the water. Usually, we dig a coyote well for the first catch tank- then a water pipe takes it from the base of that well to a fifty-gallon drum downhill- which then feeds a 500-gallon plastic catch tank even further downhill. Once the 500-gallon tank is full- you've got enough pressure usually to push on to the house or wherever you're routing the water, which is also downhill- that's where the big 1000-gallon tank is. Usually here this is a 10-foot cubic hole dug in the ground by hand and then the bottom is poured with cement and the walls are cement block- then it's painted with a sealant. The walls stick up out of the ground about 3 feet and there's a low pitch "A" frame roof built over it- then a floating electric pump actually delivers the water to the home's filter system. Viola- free water, and it actually tastes amazing right out of the tap. It's not hard or overly soft- just right. One of the few things we can brag about in this region- we have fine water still.

Some years ago, I took a survival course to get some more skills for when I went backpacking. The instructor when it came to hydration and staying alive showed us how to dig this type of well and its uses. He also told us that when it comes to drinking untreated water that its "better to be carried out by two then carried out by six." That always stuck with me and when I do go backpacking, and really don't want to drink untreated water, I carry at least three ways to do it...a sawyer mini filter, stove to boil water and a small bottle of bleach ( visine size).

Good trick, explained well. I lived in the mountains in the wilderness in the western U S for 9 1/2 years doing the mountain man thing when I was young. I did get mildly sick a few times for a week or so in the early years from drinking out of streams. However, I eventually got used to it and it stopped bothering me. I learned to drink from the smallest branch of the creek available. That seemed to eliminate problems for me.

1 other tip to help with boiling just in case all you have is that little cup. Dig a separate hole 2-3 feet away from that hole, line with clay, start a fire in it to harden clay, once clay is hard, clean hole out. Now you can transfer water into that bowl you just made and throw hot rocks heated in a fire directly into the water causing the water to boil. Once cooled, you can remove the rocks and drink safely. Great video.

Great video as usual. Just a note on boiling water for disinfection, it really depends on the altitude. At sea level, water boils at 212F/100C, but at 10,000 ft, it’s 193F/89.5C. It’s not uncommon for people to contract things like amoeba while on high altitude expeditions. I’m not sure exactly what temperatures are considered fool proof for killing most microorganisms, but at least it’s worth noting that atmospheric pressure alters boiling temperature of water. I carry a Lifestraw in my car at all times for emergencies, but the soil filtration technique is a great addition. Another thing worth noting is that filtration does not work against anatoxins. For example, there are certain varieties of algae that are lethal, and that thrive even in rapids and streaming water. Even if you boil and/or filter water that is contaminated with those toxins, it’s going to be potentially deadly to drink it.
@CLove5112 жыл бұрын
I've done zero research on this, but I'm a sous vide fan, and one of the benefits is that you can cook meats at a lower temperature for longer, and still kill the bacteria. Juicy, medium rare pork at a nice 135°f, perfectly safe. The math on that is temperature over time. You have to hit 165° if you're taking it off immediately, but if you can hold it at a lower temperature for longer, it'll still kill it. If that 193° isn't enough to kill amoeba, I would imagine that boiling for 10-20 minutes before cooling or cooking will eventually do the trick.

I dug one of the years on a survival course down in the Ozarks late last year. The soil was extremely rocky and I tore the heck out of my fingertips, but got it dug with the use of a digging stick and fingers. It never did completely clear. Something to keep in mind. If you’re digging it next to a creek, and you get a rain storm and the creek overflows it’s bank, it is going to pollute your well. The water source I was using ran down from a cow pasture. Just something to be aware of.

I learned to do this in low spots as a kid in Louisiana. The water table can be relatively close to the surface and this worked often. The problem with this method is that arsenic and heavy metals are still a problem even with this method. We were always taught to avoid using this close to a major water source as it could often stir up those contaminants that had been deposited by the water source. It can work great on small water sources that may be less likely to be contaminated. But the risk is worth it if dying of dehydration is the immediate problem.

Hence, the importance of Water Purification Tablets, Powered Drink Flavourings and 'Anti-Gyppo' Pills. Holding one's nose shut whilst drinking also helps ..

This is also called: Egyptian Well (from biblical times). Back then, it was used after the “water was turned to blood” (remember the story?). I noticed a few comments suggesting a Grayl or Sawyer (which are viable options) but, mud & clay can plug a filter in no time. I know that this is a down-n-dirty technique, but how about using a Millbank bag or blue jeans to pre-filter? If this is to be a long term water solution, line it with rocks or limestone, make it larger in diameter (say, 5 gallon bucket size), insert said bucket with holes in the side, line the inside with filter media & cover with Gamma seal or regular lid?
