Congrats on 5k subs mate! 1 - Is that a home-made millbank bag you keep your puri-tabs in? 2 - Did you make the parachord top handle for your pack? 3 - Do you get giant hogweed in Alaska? The toxic sap stuff that burns and blisters your skin? It's all over the UK now. 4 - Perfect closing tune haha The Evader's morale is always so high. "I'll pack up my garbage and then I've got another 4-5 hours of this bu****it left" haha

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

😆😆😆😆I cuss a lot. HAHA. No, I didn't make the handle. It came with the rucksack.. Yes we have that shyt here. We call it something else (name escapes me at the mo). Burns and makes nice blisters. Never really bothered me though. Also never had a huge issue with poison ivy or the like. And yes I made the filter bag out of the canvas from a Hungarian Zeltbahn YEARS ago.. Good comment, mate.. thnx for that!

[@prometheus_beard]

@@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska Cool. Can I see the filter bag and how you stitched it mate please?

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

@@prometheus_beard I copied it directly from an issue millbank filter bag if thats helps.. or i can send you some pictures tomorrow?

[@prometheus_beard]

@@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska Post them on your community page mate. I'm sure others are interested too 🤙

Good evening Ivarr! What a great scenery, I am very envious of your beautiful sorroundings. Thank you for taking me along and as always all the very best from Austria my friend 🇦🇹🤠👍🏕🔥

You are very welcome !!!

[@StevenRoberts-m8v]

Awesome job,Ivarr! Great scenery, and job scouting previous areas!! You are a great teacher! Thanks for sharing this with us!! Looked to me to be a gear shake down,and it was successful!! 👍👍🤝🥾🪡🧵💯🎯🫡

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

I was so amazed at how it changed that I questioned if I had really been there before. But I had! It was productive, and thank you.

[@jeffcooper9363]

Thanks for bringing us along. Great outro by the way...

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Thnx for watching it all the way through!

Hi Ivarr. "Time spent in preparation and investigation is seldom wasted" Thanks for sharing and those streams look a littl full for the end of summer. Stay safe. ATB. Nigel

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Last time I saw that torrent it was but a trickle of water i had trouble using to fill a canteen.. Things REALLY changed up there. So much so that I questioned ever having been there and confusing it with another location.. and YW, good Sir..

[@pnyarrow]

@@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska It is amazing how things can change in even a short time out in the wilds.

[@FlyingHaggisFilms]

Ivarr, you and your buddy have cracked it again, my hound boy was also glued to the wide screen tv, I imagine the sounds, vision and terrain seemed familiar. Thank's for your efforts, my mind has been for days on planning my own spiders Web survival pods for next spring provided the world dosent collapse by then. For now entering winter, I can at least hope to get out and do some scouting days in the interim. Your at least inspiring even though I feel weak due to ill health my mind is set. Thank you for sharing. ...out

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Very good of you to say, mate. I'm glad you're inspired and entertained. Also good to hear your hound found it interesting. It amazes me how often dogs will actually watch TV when something interests them! Im looking forward to spring FOR YOU!

IKR ..? I just hope it doesn't keep up and just turn to snow later. Id like a no snow winter up here again..

[@bryanfaulkenburg462]

Some beautiful country ya live in. Pretty sweet gear, too. I have a non parts matching SKS I Bubba-ed up with a functioning 20 rd fixed Chinese Star mag , vintage Norinco ambi safety (I shoot long guns left handed) and a Choate conventional synthetic stock . It is a sweet, light handy rifle.

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

A guy I trained with had one of those ChiCom issue star stamped 20 rounders and his didn't work right. I got one and that one didn't work right either. Good to hear someone has had one work for them! I really liked the idea but alas, it wasn't meant to be. Im Ok with the 10 rounder now though. Thanks for the kind words and thnx for your time!

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Thank you. Twas a productive scout.

[@GillianSmith]

Wow! the quality of your videos gets better and better......really good definition....and really does the Alaskan wilderness justice! I see you are ahead of the UK and the fall is well under way....just love the colors and great choice of camo to match. Were you cooking on Hexi? I love that stuff and was standard in UK rat packs....now I've just found out its been banned....yes illegal and large fine with prison for owning/possession......the UK gets better and better! This was one of those 'feel good films', beautiful scenery, man, dog, nature, cracking sound track and those 'diamonds' falling from the sky at the end.......

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Hey Lass! Same principle as hexi, but Esbit. I heard about the ban.

[@okanagan.outdoors]

Great videos lately

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Glad you like them! Appreciated..

[@neil_castell]

great location ... opening sequence sounds like the war in the Congo, which had almost 100 different sides. Do you use a GPS to log locations ? or is it oldschool map and paper ?

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

I used to use a GPS, map and notes.. Now just a map and notes..

[@samkestan1210]

Good stuff sir. Very good stuff. I am envious of the terrain. Dayn looks tired. Thats some long rifle and glass territory there. Hope all is well, stay dry.

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Those DDR bino are a fucking brick. But the nerd in me takes them out now and again. They work great too.. and thnx!

[@germanredneck9019]

What a Beautiful area to scout!❤ Water, trees, maybe some animals for food... Good resources. Nice camo mix, even If it was "Just" a scout. Did you Made the Odin with us belt buckle graphic? That would be awesome on a real belt buckle 🤩😅 Good Video 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Thanks 👍 A friend of mine made it for me. There is a Alpine buckle that was made from old WWII Heer buckles. The pressed out the Wehrmacht eagle and turned it into an edelweiss.. They were used for Alpine trekking clubs.. Kinda rare though, but yeah ide wear it!

Cool, He did a good Job on that. Wow, thanks for the information, didnt know that! Pretty amazing, would wear such a badboy too🤩

Glad as always to see you preparing for the inevitable. You always inspire man and you’re a good reminder that I need to do better getting my Shyt together. Thank you! The excerpt audio in the beginning, what’s that from?

[@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska]

Some fake radio transmission of a US civil war. You can tell it was made by some smelling hippie. That was the only portion I could use that seemed neutral .. and thnx man.,. did you get to the song at the end?

[@Reject_Modernity1776]

@@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska Ah right on man! I live in Oklahoma so I was curious what scenario might have befallen this place haha.. I did notice the Lyrice to Savbath’s War Pigs sung to the melody of a John Denver song…🤣 it’s an improvement to the JD song.

Good Morning, East Germany! I'm jealous of your bunkers and other structures... Truly a good resource.. Thanks for stopping in my friend.

[@BushcraftOst]

@@Ivarr.Bergmann.Alaska Hello Ivarr, bunkers and structures are mostly in forbidden areas here, but it's always tempting. Even if it costs money (a fine), you can't say no. Best wishes and have a nice week.
