6 Days Alone in the Wilderness

#bushcraft #camping #fishing #asmr
Haven't done a long hike since august. Really been longing for a simple off trail hike like this. Alone in a vast wilderness area. Started out with freezing temps in the night and walked out of the hike in full summer day 6. On day 5 you can literally hear and see how nature comes alive. I love contrasts like that. Its always what I aim for.
3X3 (10'x10') Tarp setup idea was awesome. It's a tent feel about it with the sleeping area that is semi closed and the vestibule on front. Wasn't clear in the video but the top front of the tent opening I attached on a line tied between two trees. Note that this attaching point needs to be higher than the inside tentpole. When the "waist" of the tent is pegged down the inner sleeping section is formed. If you lift the tent up higher this area can be further enclosed. Now what will I call this setup? Suggestions in comments please.
The boil in bag idea also worked. The point with it is you can do this with the 1 dollar cheap freeze dried meals. The 10 dollar vacuum packed freeze dried meals you just pour hot fluid in there and wait 8 min. That don't work good with the cheaper brands that is not made for hiking. But with this method you can get it done with perfect result and no dishes! And all you need is a fire.
My feet are wasted after this one and I need some rest. I put in about 30 km in this video. A lot of people don't know how much that is off trail. It is 3 times harder in comparison to following a trail. You walk and walk, stumble, fall, get wet and if you make a km or two in an hour you are lucky. It is hell part of the time but the places you reach and the scenery is rewarding. I hope you enjoy this hike as much as I did! Thanks for watching!

There are 2 kids in Gdańsk, 2yrs old and 4 who really loves you, shouting to me: daddy we want to watch this fellla who's making fire in a woods and cook! Well done mate

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks my polish friend. Give them kids my best!

[@dyaamajed9639]

My friend, how beautiful is your presence in our lives, you are a person like no other, you are a person who can never be compensated, may God protect you ⚘️❤️

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you kindly!

[@lkbranniff8877]

Beautiful video. My thought watching you prepare and eat your meal next to that stream: "There's not a table in any restaurant in the world better than that." Always look forward to your videos; they are so very peaceful to watch.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@stevejones1967]

Your trust in the integrity of the pasta bag over the fire was bold ! Fantastic video as always

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@mikerandle5713]

I'm concerned that these bags will leach bad chemicals into your food. Your method would work equally well with a paper lunchbag.😊

[@ninepointone6934]

Yes very nice bro

[@vonHannersdorf]

I think these packages are made in such a way that there is aluminum inside. So any plastic there should not come into contact with food. But it's true that it was a bit burnt from the bottom and it's probably not ideal for your lungs...

[@tjdreamer5]

No words, no noise, no rush - only nature and you with your excellent skills building lurid mood. Thank you for all of this - loyal viewer from Poland.

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you very much!

[@peraagegabrielsen6303]

So nice with only natural sounds.

[@bellasvistas3463]

Had a wonderful trip, thanks for taking me along.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks nice of you to join!

[@AlexBarera84]

The atmosphere of the forest is always amazing! Thank you.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@MySurvival-wp9bh]

I like the challenge of survival without food, without water, without shelter, without fire. I started exploring the forest and looking for wild vegetables to eat, building my own shelter in the harsh rainforest. In the evening I went to catch frogs and stayed overnight.... many really wonderful things. I want to learn more from you

[@gregbowden1552]

I wish my back yard looked like this forest.Very beautiful.

[@ruchiramunjal6061]

Another Great Camping Adventure !! Weather Is Perfect .

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks for watching !

[@jeanmicheljarrejmj7706]

again and again always the same.... The Best , calm videos -in my opinion. Greetings from Poland.

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you my friend!

[@craigrobertson6082]

Another great trip, I really liked the shot from above when you were going through the clearing. Thanks again.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@oo.i0nyx]

Hello and greetings ... I also pre-packed my back in a blanket and I will spend a long time in the sun in the park, I will wait for adventures in the forest although I walk willingly... HAVE A NICE DAY! 😃

[@jamesellsworth9673]

I also learn a good deal from Tom at Cimbrer Bushcraft. He is Danish and also does Viking reenactment videos. I began, many years ago, to use vegetable strainers as a firebase. Tom has developed the Arrin fire bowl: A sturdier version that stands higher on tripod legs. Naturally, I had to have one. The panels on every one of my vegetable strainer kits were forever coming loose. Tom's design cures that problem and offers more protection to the ground. I note in your video, that you always can find a suitable rock to serve a similar purpose!

[@Millie-c]

Haha, yes. You're so right, I never thought I'd meet you here. How have you been doing?

[@chefinwood4706]

The tent set up can be called the "HOOD." I also prefer the Off trail hiking, which is more challenging with no clear path, but the rewards are worth it. Thanks for taking us with you 🙏

[@Funkteon]

I've always wanted to hike off-trail in Australia, but I cannot afford the cost of a bulldozer and explosives to clear a path through the world's thickest and densest and thorniest bushland... When I went to Sweden late last year to a location very near where Swedwoods and Erik Normark do their videos, it was just amazing to see so many gaps in between the trees that you can just walk through. You can literally walk in any direction you want. This is just not possible in Australia as you will be up against incredibly dense shrubbery and ferns etc...

[@antunoriley8699]

Yes disbursed camping is way more personal.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!!

[@ricardoog3655]

This is an amazing video with lot's of good footage! Thanks for sharing. ☺️👍🏾👍🏾

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you very much!

[@susanhazra976]

Thanks again for taking us on your wilderness camping journey. I particularly loved your videos of the frogs or toads, the lake and the bubbling stream. The aerial views show just how isolated you were. Makes you feel like we are so small in the whole scheme of the universe. Beautiful scenery and sounds and sights. Worth waiting for.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@billlewis1829]

Just awestruck at the natural beauty you travel around to camp and fish.

[@jensdietze5669]

I love the way you do! Your content is my healing time! Thank you very much! Best regards and all the Best!

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@Miguel_ON65]

Great video again my friend. Peace and quiet life, it is all people need. Congratulations

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you my friend!

[@jamesellsworth9673]

You found some AMAZING frames of that sausage cooking (and spurting its juices into the fire.) I can feel the energy of springtime in the settings where you chose to camp!

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!!

[@antunoriley8699]

I can smell the pine and moss and the stream nearby is perfect medicine for me

[@endlesscamp22]

Amazing as always, new ways of cooking, such a beautiful nature around you! Thanx again!

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@johnstott140]

Fantastic video "once again" thank you for your efforts to entertain us less fortunate folks. Nice to see you float fishing for a change. Perch are much nicer to eat than pike in my opinion. Pike are so boney. I keep your upload until just before bed as I only go out camping now during the week as it's just to busy at the weekends here in the UK. So I go off to sleep with pleasant thoughts and I can almost smell the pine's and woodsmoke and the damp on my face. Thank you very much John Stott

[@Swedwoods]

Thank you!

[@fschiller4189]

Thank you for another great video. I really admire your skills.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@DianeSturlinXX]

Thank you so much for your videos. I was born and raised by Yellowstone Park in the United States and spent most of my time outdoors. When we were kids and told our parents we were going to the park we ment Yellowstone Park and, they didn't see us again for days. Now I'm an old old lady and I just love watching your videos they relax me and I get to live vicariously through your endeavors. 😊

I mean, I don't want everybody's dreams to come true, but in a general sense, sure.

[@herikurniawan6627]

I always wait for the latest videos from you. as I know, you always give the best for the people who love you...and I pray that you will always be given health, amen.

[@Swedwoods]

I so enjoyed this, Swedwood! The part where you took your lunch by that little stream was especially lovely, and the tongs - another great idea for sure! Alright, Take care! 👍

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks my friend!

[@sharamkh]

The drone shots from 40:50 gave me a post-apocalyptic feeling. Really cool!

[@cskillet2003]

Using the old metal steamer as a platform for fires is genius.

[@lorettawhiteside3153]

[@markcummings6856]

Thanks Swedwoods! Loved everything. Especially the frogs, Tarp opening idea- simple, efficient, genius to give more openness and height! And then I always love to see that bigger Cold Steel pan. Take care.

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks my friend!

[@nidfest]

Towards the end you had drone footage of you on an open plane. Had there been a fire in the past? change in soil??? Many thanks for sharing your trip, greatly appreciate all the hard work it takes to bring it to us. Regards John

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@margaretyoung4262]

Rest up! Never thought how much more taxing off trail hiking is than on. I appreciate you making these videos. Liked the ‘almost E 🎼. The ‘musical snowshoes’ in your last video was way cool too. Best of all is seeing you out in these beautiful wild places that are a bit too challenging for me. And sharing that you get a little anxious at first, and yes, wolves in hearing distance while sleeping out is scary. But oh how I envy you getting to experience it!

[@Swedwoods]

Thanks!

[@theforestandme_outdoor]

Another nice video Cathy. Looks like you found a really good place to camp. Indi definitely enjoyed it. Have a nice weekend. Take care!

[@terrym1065]

I can see how tramping 30km through that terrain would put a strain on joints and related musculoskeletal parts of your body, good luck with the rest. Great camp setups, meals and all the good stuff we've come to expect from your excellently produced videos. Superior filming with stunning views, thanks for the hard work carrying all the camera gear and batteries for six days to bring us along. Class act all the way as always.. See you next time.

[@Swedwoods]

I am 81yrs now. Very tired of the pain, anxiety and negative I'm surrounded by. I will be returning Home soon and cant wait. My sweet dog, Izzy, is waiting for me, I'm very excited to see her. To all of you listening to this music from our angels, please care for yourself. Listen to what you need, I did not. I was a nurse for 54 yrs and wore my spirit and body down, not thinking of what I needed. So, listen to your soul, follow your guides. God bless.♥

You always handle your axes and other blades safely. It's very nice to see. They can be quite dangerous when mishandled, as you know. You're setting a great example for others! As always, I enjoy your channel and videos. Keep up the good work.

[@cheesedude1733]

Great time to be in the forest! Nature coming back alive is a wonderous thing to be part of. The clearing you sent the drone above, I'm curious, is it a bog or dry lake bed or...? And I feel your pain in bushwacking. I hunted mushrooms for two decades in wilderness conditions, no trails except what deer made. It IS exhausting! Also, too bad no one makes decent Baked Beans in freeze dried. Drag to carry the can the whole trip, but it does supply its own cooking pot - but then, so did the pasta! Thanks as always my friend, for bringing us along with you as you experience the wild!

[@Swedwoods]

I hear you my friend. Yes a kind of bog. Not exacrly a swamp but its called a "myr" in swedish.

[@cheesedude1733]

​@@Swedwoods I like that name. Much less negative than "swamp" and more mystical than a "bog". The word just looks way more interesting.

[@outdoor-suedost]

Good day Swedwoods! A great adventure, thank yo for taking me along🙏! May I ask you some questions? First I want to know is whether the Every Men's Right is still common or are there any restrictions in some areas? Second thing I want to know is if when you are travelling crosscountry and come to different lakes or creeks, do you need for everything a special license or is there a general license for all fishing? Third question is what fabrication is this awesome fire plate? Thank for you for effort and as always all the best from Austria 🇦🇹🤠👍🏕🔥

[@Swedwoods]

Yes its still a right. Special restrictions in nature reserves. Yes you need to buy fishing permit. Sea and our top 5 lakes fishing is free. fire plate is a veggie steamer. Thanks!

[@outdoor-suedost]

@@Swedwoods thank you for your quick response! Atb Bernd from Austria 🇦🇹
