Emergency Primitive Shelter in Blizzard

[@kaboom-zf2bl]

dont forget valleys with no openings are super cold death traps ... because they trap the cold ... you want to be on the bottom 1/3rd of a mountain so youre not at the bottom and not near the top .... even valley's with openings are deadly because of this ... by telling people to camp at the bottom you are setting them up to die literally ... dont camp the top of a mountain and dont camp the valley's ... camp about 1/3rd the way up the hill side then you are in warmer air less likely to get flooded out and out of the majority of the wind and near dead standing firewood ....this is where your BEST chance of survival is ... this is what is taught for extreme survival in the military

[@colinm366]

I like how practical this is! As much fun as bushcraft videos are, they're not realistic survival scenarios. This is rly informative

[@sajujm88]

Yes really. If you don't wear a good sweater, jackets, carry knife, sword to cut wood, lighter, plastic sheats and ofcourse some food stuffs to heat and eat, then death by freeze is inevitable!

Good job really good 👍 As far as State and federal land goes do it anyways. It would most likely be cheaper than a government body search and removal. At least you are able to argue the fact than be dead!

Basically you're just creating a coffin to freeze in😮. You need to create a complete Windbreak if at all possible.

That does block the wind and keeps in heat, if it was open lean to style then it would be what you said.

[@Wopayne]

We can see why bright colors on all your gear is so important. Your backpack can be used to keep your feet warmer! It's too bad you didn't spend the night there! The very first rule of survival is AVOID dangerous situations. If you can't, think ahead and dress for the weather. Collect good basic gear, food and water and put it in a large pack [Army Duffle Bag?] Take it! Sleep during the day because you won't sleep at night. Find a south facing rock face and take a sun bath. Warm up your core. Dry out your clothes. Keep the videos coming!

A far better option would be to always be prepared for such a situation, especially by putting one of those 10' X 12' 2-3 mil drop cloths you can buy for a song at Dollar Store in your vehicle or backpack, as we do here in Wyoming, so that if we do have to build a shelter, we will have the bare necessities. Best is to stay with your vehicle, but if you're caught out in a white-out blizzard like we get here, that drop cloth could save your life, and could even suffice to shelter more than one person.

[@mikeroy6713]

That’s what I was thinking the whole video. Why not just carry a small tarp, unless you really want to use your hatchet and a giant knife to survive.

[@josiahrambally771]

I think you demonstrated the basics in this video. Sooo much hate and backseat drivers who need to make their own channel since they are “experts”. Then the comparisons to other channels. Sooo many Karen’s in the thread 🤪 “Well at the other Restaurant… they offer olives on the side…” I shake my head to see how humanity has no love. I understand the feedback. Perhaps some of these guys can make their own version, film it, edit it and post it. Listen I am no expert. But I seen the basic science and the thinking behind that emergency shelter. Yes you could have maybe this, maybe that… but if folks are hungry. “Either eat the sandwich or don’t” This is a good reminder for me that no matter if you do your best… there will always be detractors. Well done Solider. Carry on. Looks like some other soldiers are just fighting with themselves. Found the video well done. Not exhaustive… but the science is there in case of an emergency.

[@paparomesoutdoors711]

Thank you really appreciate it and have to agree 100% with what your saying, of course if I was really in this situation bet your ass I would build the walls and floor 3-5 times thicker with pine bows to insulate better and close it in well.

cut or break off a pole, use it to knock the snow off of the boughs. You need it to help prevent injury as you move on the slopes in the snow, too. You can't see the holes, slippery rocks, etc. One turned ankle or pulled calf muscle and you're effed.

One or two military surplus poncho's, a couple meters of para cord and you can have a wind/water/snow proof shelter in about a fifth of the time you can put together a shelter like this. And all those would of taken up the same space as the beaver pelt. Plus you don't have to chop down a bunch of small live tree's. This kind of bushcraft was all the rage 50 + years ago, but then we all became conscience of low impact camping, and started using modern tech to be safe and sheltered. Now it's turned around and everyone is chopping crap down and building rock/mud/wooden "forts" in the woods again. Sort of ironic and annoying all at the same time.
