I test my survival skills in the Canadian forest to survive with just the things I carry in my small backpack. I'll survive with just a knife, axe, line, hooks, and wool blanket. The wool blanket and survival tarp are from: arcturusgear.com/

I will show you how to cut through the ice using an axe so you don't get totally wet when you chop through to go icefishing. Then we will use just a little bit of fishing tackle, some fishing line, small fishing hooks, and some split shot as well as a branch I find on the shore of the lake to make a very simple icefishing rig that costs almost nothing. Adding some bells to a do it yourself ice fishing tip up makes for a nice fish indicator.
Next we will make a fire to cook the fresh fish over and I will show you how to light it with some special tinder that I brought in with me for survival emergencies. The goal of these challenges is to not only survive, but thrive. We are acting as if these are long term scenarios.
I wanted to test out some new gear, so I'll sleep overnight in a wool blanket and survival tarp that reflects body heat.
Primitive challenge with a few simple basic tools. I will show you how to start a fire using primitive techniques and cook a wild grouse over an open fire. Survival is all about making the best of a bad situation. Staying warm and dry is the key to staying alive. After survival is taken care of, it's all about making your situation even better. Finding food, water, and making a shelter is a must to create ultimate survival comfort. I use a saw and basic tools to make a bushcrafter shelter in the Canadian forest using materials around us like tree branches and dried grass.
