Building a Warm Shelter to Survive HEAVY SNOW: 3 Day Winter Camping

[@AgeofTheNorth]

What is the coldest temperature you've camped in?

[@meushoutdoor]

-20. I dream of starring in a video with you. But first, I need to learn English)) secondly, I need the war to end... Thank you for your hard work, I understand you like no one else 😊❤

[@Retetop]

I don't think it counts because I didn't really sleep much or set up much of a camp but I was out in -27

[@heikokarnap1140]

Circa 2 grad Celsius . . . Would be exiting to do it in your Country . . . When i'm lucky , there are 2 weeks with snow here . . . Sad . . .

[@chickenlickin3820]

-4 degrees c

[@Itachi__uchiha_ind]

Never camped

[@plynwow]

One thing I would add, that would really help keep it nice and warm in a shelter like that, would be to find some rocks to kind of frame out half of your firepit. That way the rocks would be in between you and the fire, and as they heated it would keep the heat throughout the night.

[@sandor139]

Firepit ♨rock frame 🪨shelter ⛺

[@clintonm2357]

Since I'm not a germaphobe, I cook eggs and other meats directly on the rocks than ring my fires. It is a nice "upgrade."

[@Drrayoldman]

I'd like to now why you didn't start a fire FIRST. I'm a former wilderness / big game guide. I always get a fire going and collect ample wood. It keeps me warm as I build the shelter and should I injure myself I have a fire that can save my life. It's hard to collect wood with a twisted ankle or an ax injury to the body. Loved the video, but safety first. Get the fire going. In the wilderness "It's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it"

[@storm3698]

@Drrayoldman thank you for that piece of survival advice. So is it fire first then food then shelter or fire, shelter then food?

[@Drrayoldman]

@@storm3698 one can survive days or even weeks without food. Fire first, a shelter can be made near while keeping warm to fight off the cold. Pauses to warm the hands does wonders.

[@thebushwackerchronicles]

Exactly!

[@mg13-r3s]

Im in army recon ,done many summer and winter survival schools . If you cant survive without fire , then youre already failing everything else . Been whole winter without fire as behind enemy line training . So stop panic. I see you dont know much about survival camping .

[@Cheezn4urdreams]

​@@mg13-r3syou're comparing apples to oranges.. a bush survivalist spot hopper vs combat stealth enemy puppy kicker.. hes not trained like you are.. you can't survive without fire, you'll die.. its him.. no chopper ready to extract.. no medic.. we're not training for missions.. we are just trying to survive.. you decide in the moment, can I stay warm for long enough to get shelter, or do I start my fire? Need water, must start fire to melt snow.. I really hope he doesn't have to dodge bullets while havin some warm tea.. but that's cool the army teaches you to go camping and expect hostiles in the area that you have to deprive your natural survival instincts.. apples to oranges.. you're shttn on OP who's not wrong.. but not perfect like you are.. you're kid goes in boy scouts and you go camping with them, you're liable to scare the sht out of them, cuz they're gonna thing someone's hunting them while they're sleeping with a small fire for chrst sakes

[@SilverFox-qr1ci]

Man, you always find the most beautiful spots to camp.

[@timoahola]

We finnish are born that way, we are with the nature. This guy is more than average, very good in old fashion way. Hundreds years ago this way of living and the hunters scared away even The Vikings.

[@parobg]

no

[@russell2910]

Do you live in a house or do you live the life of a Viking? I live normal in fall and winter but have psychotic mania in spring and summer and live outside, not like a primative but more that I live by animal instinct and sheer violent disregard. Merry Christmas everybody

[@plynwow]

I believe the Fins were in fact pictish and also some were vikings. I could be wrong in my assumption.

[@galenbjorn443]

i do like my Finnish friends and women, but this dude is not average, he is a lot more jacked then the average person in this world by far. And if I'm not wrong Sweden owned finland for like 800 years. Im sure you guys did not scared us away and then we took your country for some reason. We came, we saw, we conquered finland

[@raduradu334]

Vikings didnt wanna stay in such cold😂

[@MountainBushcraft]

It's amazing that you can survive in such weather conditions.

[@ThomasNolan-i4r]

Thanks!

[@margaretbagur3553]

Excellent thing to show having your roof also be a source of tinder. Forgaing extra materials before you need them and to serve more than one purpose to have right inside your shelter is always important and many times overlooked.

[@edkocialski5522]

I always took a 2 gal zip lock bag. Knocked all the snow off my boots, threw them in the zip lock and slept with them in the sleeping bag down by your feet. I hate cold boots in the morning.

[@BozoBob003]

Now that's a Extreme situation, snowing like crazy, cold, looks like a fun time and really a good time to do what it takes and overcome the elements, get a good fire going, stay warm, i have done that when i was much younger and remember it was fun but a big challenge to overcome the elements, good looking shelter and keep that fire going my friend.

Чудесное видео: красивая природа, снег, был очень красивый закат, месяц на небе, удачно построенный домик! И, все же, никогда не пойму как может человек переносить такой холод, ночуя на снегу, пусть даже в спальнике - это по сути тёплое одеяло. Ну, понимаю, согревают еда и костер. Представляю как радостно возвращаться домой!

[@aleshkaemelyanov]

Алина . Дивностью встречи три дня упиваюсь и от восторга трещу весь по швам, вольным полётом идей вдохновляюсь и очаровано радуюсь Вам! Вашей уютностью нежно окутан. Слух мой ласкают сплетения слов. Как незнакомцу, Вы кажетесь чудом! В Вас заключаются тайны родов. В паточных локонах, смешанных с солнцем, и в добродушно-миндальных глазах, в щёчках, что тронуты свежим морозцем, рай заточён, как бывает во снах! Образ эфирный, но всё же телесный, строки и грёзы во мне ворошит. Как насыщаюсь водицею пресной, глядя в два зеркальца юной души...

[@dmr122003]

great job…love the snow..love camping when i was young..

[@SHWELL11]

Do the Rock walls help radiate the heat from the fire? Do you tear down these shelters when yo are done? Would love to see you revisit an old shelter and see how it has held up over the years without maintenance.

a lot of work for no gain in warmth over a tent, actually. if you know to use the Siberian fire lay's abiilty to project all of its heat in one direction, twice as far as is the case with a normal fire.

[@teddyb4957]

Two comments/tips, 1. When you make the roof rather than cutting the thinner top off to length, cut part of the way through and then fold down. This then forms your end wall that you can lay evergreen branches against, as you did with the side. 2. when doing the side with evergreen branches a) do this BEFORE covering the roof with evergreen branches, and use last branch junction [bottom branch of a growing tree] to form a hook. This is then hung over your outer most roof pole. When you then put the evergreen branch roof on this stops the side from being blown/disturbed by the wind.The top won't be blown away as a) you have a lot of weighted branches on top of each other with gravity acting on them, and b) when it snows this will add more weight and form an air/water tight roof.

[@jamesc264]

Good basic construction but needed snow heaped around bottom of walls to cut wind, and more leafy branches to fill in gaps, then hopefully it would snow and the snow would rest on branches and help insulate more.
