[@koboskolors]

Not only are your videos relaxing, but amazingly resourceful. Thank you for what you do.

[@framerguy]

I can only add, from sitting around similar fires for so many hours myself, that the relaxation is simply a reflection of how Lonnie feels whenever he gets out in the wilderness and is at peace with himself and one with the nature that surrounds him. That is more than any feeling that one can express to another but more of a level of "mindfulness" of where you are and what you are experiencing at the moment. I envy the chance you and Connie have taken to experience that type of life. Had I only known, when I was young enough to physically do what had to be done to leave the life I thought I had for the life that I later found that I truly enjoyed, I would probably be one of your distant neighbors across the ridge and we would both be sharing one another's fire from a distance spanned only by the silence of the Northwoods.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

I do indeed know how to start a fire many different ways. Even though I am very experienced in friction fire methods and lit my first bow drill fire over 40 years ago, I still light probably 95% of my fires with a lighter. I feel no need to try to prove anything by using more "politically correct" bushcraft fire lighting methods in my videos when it is not what i do when off the camera. In other words, I try to be just plain me whether on or off camera. I try to be *real*. Thanks for the positive feedback. For those interested, they can watch my primitive fire playlists.

[@55Quirll]

@@haar71 I agree, his videos are instructional and very informative. I was wondering, to keep the fire heating the shelter, would you have put 3 7" logs on top of the 2 bottom logs before lighting? You did a video where you had 1 8" log on top of another 8" log to see if the fire would heat the shelter for 8 hours - 1" / hour. A good way to help keep you warm in the winter. Thank you for a great video.

I'm 62 and never spent much time camping or surviving in the woods. I wish I had learned what Lonnie teaches when I was younger. These are some of the most fascinating videos I have ever watched. I was stationed in North Dakota when I was young and in the Air Force and it gets pretty cold there and I used to think how tough and hearty the early settlers and Native Indians of that area must have been just to survive before all the conveniences we have now. A person really has to be knowledgeable, strong, and alert to survive. Thank you Lonnie for all this great information. I am still going to try to learn as much as I can just in case.

[@DustyRoadz]

Thank you for you videos. I'm a city slicker trying to get back to a way of living that I believe to be better way than the way I was born into. I believe this world is moving more and more away from a true form of living. If I got stuck in the woods by myself, I wouldn't last very long because I was never raised in this art. All in all, at 34 years old I've learned that the way society has grown away from practical knowledge and puts more credit on a college degree than on how to live practically, is what has left people like myself yearning for a deeper level of life while I still have breath. Once again, thank you as I learn from watching your videos and look forward in applying this knowledge as I stay on the path.

Your videos are like relaxation therapy. I also immensely appreciate your knowledge and expertise. I specifically want to thank you for thinking about things through the eyes of newbies like myself, and anticipating the questions we might have, like what to do when the first three logs burn down (you mentioned how to add more logs, or push the existing logs together to keep it burning hot and to run it out). You're a good instructor. Your videos are fun and soothing to watch. Well done. The fact that you're doing it in Alaska lends a lot of confidence to people like me who live in Colorado. These Arizona and Alabama bushcrafters have _no idea_ how cold it can get out there. Thank you, Lonnie and Connie!

+Jontra Volta The flute was indeed being played live in this video recording. Let me explain. The video camera was indeed picking up me playing live as you seen, but I was also using the microphone on my Android tablet to to pick up the sound and run it through an app which adds reverb or echo sound effects to the video. The output from the video was then sent to my remote portable bluetooth speaker which was then picked up by the video camera's microphone. What you saw me reach for at the end of the flute playing was to turn the android app off so that it would not "echo" my words as well. That is also why that segment of the video had quieter spoken audio since my microphone was not on my person as usual but was out in front of the flute to pick up the flute sound

[@NN-lu2zb]

Far North Bushcraft And Survival that's amazing

[@ElveeKaye]

I enjoyed your flute playing, Lonnie. This video is so interesting. Looks like a good way to minimize the amount of fuel you have to gather and use, while producing a lot of heat.

[@morpheoist]

hello, I have tried different types of wood and I discovered that a lot depends on the type of tree and how dry the logs are. I live in Italy on a small island and the trees that I find of the right size are: holm oak, pine, ash. mainly holm oak, there are not many large ash trees, and pines are often much larger. I would tend to immediately discard the pine wood because what I find belongs to dead trees that the wind has dropped. the outside is punctured by termites and the heartwood inside is little and very resinous. once you get to the most compact part it is like putting 4-inch diameter logs. even healthy trees that I happened to cut down after an hour the trunk catches fire due to the resin. the advantage is that it also burns fresh. in emergency, the pine is the tree to be felled. as long as you find a small one because here they are centenarians and they are really big. Holm oak, like all oaks, is a hard and compact wood with short and irregular fibers. It lasts a long time but once the small pieces you put in the middle are finished, it will tend to go out slowly unless you add other small pieces to make a flame. the advantage of the holm oak is that once the fire is well started it will make a lot of embers which will continue to burn without flame. a well-made fire in the morning will seem out but under the ashes there will still be embers lit and restarting it will be simple. watching various survival programs such as Naked and Afraid I noticed that no one has the ability to juggle fire.I have seen competitors spend their days gathering wood and making huge fires all day even in the desert for fear of it going out and not being able to more turn on again. not knowing about fire is very serious for anyone who claims to be an expert in survival. many are good at turning it on comfortably seated at the table in the garden and believe that this is enough, the reality is very different.

Glad to see you just be efficient in starting the fire.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Dan Griffith I too can perform friction fire of many different types and rock and steel fire plus even been successful with rock on rock type fire starting. All of these rock and steel or rock on rock are using natural fungus to catch the spark instead of the char cloth that most people use. I am experienced enough with primitive fire that I am confident enough in my skills that I believe that I could light a fire with primitive methods under just about any circumstance. *BUT* like you, I still will use my lighter for everyday use and see no sense in doing otherwise.

Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. I enjoy them immensely. I live in Florida...so a very different climate and floral and fauna. but I learn so much from all you do and find it a wonderful source of knowledge and relaxation. Keep up the amazing videos, and Be blessed and stay safe!

Need to do this in the day time so we can see. Great video, Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time and care to make your videos. I am thoroughly enjoying them and learn cool stuff with each one watched. I also really like your flute music. May the Lord bless you as you enjoy His creation and teach others to enjoy and respect it as well.

Greetings from anchorage Ak. Been searching everywhere for a northern bushcraft survival advice videos that will be suited for our climate . Glad to find your channel!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

I am glad you have found the channel as well. Welcome to the channel. There is an upcoming "survival" course going to take place in Wasilla on July 27th. I will be one of the instructors for the course. I will be available for questions and visiting after the course. Hope you can make it. There is quite a large following of fellow Alaskans on the channel here. I will be sharing further info about this event in upcoming videos. I have many videos already recorded on the channel that you may enjoy watching as well.

[@emzirek]

[@katosthoff]

Where do you buy that ?

[@bfgivmfith]

Thank you. Camped out up there for a salmon season years ago. Would liked to have known some of your insight then, but am more than grateful to know now!

[@ajadrew]

Superb yet relaxed fire & gorgeous flute sound..:-))

[@Hello-qq2to]

Wow! You are really good with the flute. Sounds like magic!

[@TheMacGeek]

Nice log fire video, I'll have to try this one sometimes. I like that Casio watch, I have the same one (F-105 illuminator with the 3298 watch module). That watch is awesome, battery lasts 5 to 10 years, and it's super water resistant. I mostly wear the Casio F-91w because it's a bit thinner, but the illumination isn't as good.

[@jaramywarren6192]

This is what we need now a days more learning videos. Thanks old timer

[@DadDare]

Very cool idea and helpful. thank you for being a teacher and showing us this! hope you have a great day!

[@strangebird64]

Lonnie! I love it! I love this long fire! Thank you for showing it to us. Also, the flute! You play a nice flute. I have 10 Native American Plains flutes. I can appreciate your style of play. Your sound has a Carlos Nakai flare. Very nice. I will play my flute, as you have, when I create my first long log fire. Peace brother Lonnie.
