In a survival situation the teepee shelter is the best of all and if you have limited food for energy then it's that type of shelter you have to get built and it doesn't have to be the size of a yurt building, it just has to be comfortable for you and who ever happen to be with , it important you use all material's available from the accident and area around you and its important to leave a hole in the top of the teepee so the smoke can escape. ❤Lilly.

When I was a teenager and was a Scout I went on an exchange trip with a group of German Scouts. While on the camping part of our trip we were devided into mixed German and British patrols and we undertook various activities together, one of which was a three day canoe trip in individual kayaks. At one of our overnight stops we did not have any tents and instead we had to crawl inside our kayaks and just drape our individual groundsheets over the open cockpits and sleep like that. Dispute being right on the rivers edge we were plenty warm enough so we didn’t even bother to prepare a fire and did all of our cooking on small solid fuel stoves(Esbit was the name of the make.) . At the next day’s stop we were issued with canvas panels that we could either lace together to make 1-2 person tents but no poles, we had to go into the forest and harvest a sapling to hold the roof up. That trip was one of the most unusual summer camps I ever went on as a Scout.

[@gbarnes6983]

I watch naked and afraid all the time and was completely started by nobody ever put rocks in the fire and then roll them into their sleeping space, people did that in the pioneer days in America. They simply put rocks in the fire as soon as you start the fire and then when you get ready to go to sleep you roll the rocks over to the shelter and they keep you warm all night. When people started living indoors they would put a brick in the fire and then wrap it in rags and put it at the foot of the bed to keep your feet warm all night, they put it under the blankets to keep their feet warm all night.

It's real easy to build a shelter out of packed snow and dig it out and start a small fire inside to melt some snow and let it freeze.If you are in lose dirt dig a trench, start a fire with rocks and then put the hot rocks and coals into the trench and cover with dirt, sleep on it covered with plastic or quick a frame to keep off rain or snow.. putting some pine branches down covered with moss or leaves won't hurt.. Always have some insulation between you and the cold ground.

Hi Lilly, excellent video. I found pine needles and branches will not block much of (oops, darn flies) the wind but can be used for the structure. So true about cold feet. I like the large A frame shelter, but the small lean-to shelter to start with. One snowy day, my daughter and I were walking in the woods behind my house, the wet swampy part, I asked her to build a fire to see if she could think of where any dry tinder would be. Took her a minute, but she had the right idea, brush the snow away at the base of the trees to look for dry leaves. Oh, Love the technicolor drawings. Thanks so much. 🙂

Luckily our little dog likes to sleep under the blankets down by my feet, she was absolutely critical in helping me keep my feet warm!

Ideally be covered together with something ( ❤the very light silver gold survival blanket is good too) Especially if the one person is weak. Becouse for some reason in this case the body heat has greater value and our wortm breath helps too.

[@rogersmith8480]

Lilly, we AMERICANS here do it a lot different to keep warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Back in the 18th and 19th century. The Native Americans Tribes, The Sioux, Cheyenne, Pawnee, Apache, Creek, Cherokee all lived in Teepees. Today, we go camping in Teepee tents so the fire place is inside in the middle of the tent and keeps us warm evenly. Just like the horse built up America, these Native American teepees kept the Native Americans warm in the winter and cool in the summer. If I didn't have a teepee tent, I could build one to keep me warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Lilly, if you want to be a TRUE SURVIVALIST, please study The Native American Tribes of America, The Sioux would be preferred, but it's up to you. Thank you for your helpful tips.

Good Vid. 1) maybe put some rocks in the fire that can be put under you while u are sleeping. 2) Maybe build a Fire in your sleeping area. then put it out. throw dirt over it and sleep on top of it. having rocks in that for that u got hot before. 3) Then build another fire out side your sleeping area for night. 4) Hot Rocks can keep u warm at night under your bag or in your bag depending on bag and temp of rocks.

[@GH0ST369]

I would also say think of building a raised cot bed with lashing two long branches perpendicular with end spacers. The heat transfer is worth the calory expense, the "lean to" needs a wind wall for the fire so that the fire will not get pushed around if the wind picks up.

[@cynthiaweathers6979]

❤ just make sure you carry in your BOB 2 construction grade trash bags. Use one for the bottom of your body and one to go over your top. This holds all your body heat in and helps to keep you warm. Smaller trash bags can be stuffed with leaves and used as bedding so you aren't on the ground. If you have a whole box of trash bags, you can stuff them and use them as a wall or barrier around you to block wind. Can be used as a tarp to keep the rain and elements from your body.

Those A-frame shelters can be made to work down to -20C. First point is it's not the same height all along. It should be smaller where your feet are. Second build it out of sticks if you can. Cover it in leafs then use interleaved sticks more leaves then more sticks. The walls should be 15cm thick ay least. Block the feet end with no more than 15cm space all round for your feet and again plenty of dry leaf insulation. The fire should have a small wall to make a convection current to keep smoke away from your shelter. Remember to use plenty on the ground too. the more springy bits of heather over leaf litter are best but almost any bush will do. I slept in one of those for 2 weeks and it was -20 the coldest night. I ended up with a hedgehog and some mice.

I have yet to find a sleeping bag that works in REAL winter conditions on the ground. I've spent serious money on these things, but without a mat of some kind, my body has always gotten cold. My favorite shelter is a Teepee. You can build it rather quickly, and if you make sure the top is open, and use a Dakota fire pit, it stays warm. A Teepee shelter, using vines and branches day one, and continuing to build each day has worked for us in below 30°F weather in the mountains of NC. {Mind you, I wasn't alone}... I'm more concerned with stealth shelters and staying warm than I am with building something to survive till found...

Its a case when something happens its to late to start reading .the book. Lofty wrote the book sas survival years ago. Its still true today as when he wrote it.

Served in royal navy, had to do survival at sea every 3 years or so scotland or iceland.

A large heavy duty bin liner (preferably two) is great to carry around when hiking, camping or just in your car.

Build up the weight slowly. If you're wanting to learn archery for hunting & self defense, you will need a certain amount of draw weight to be effective.
