Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc

I grew up heating with wood as the only source of heat. Picking up a log like that and then walking away with it... that log weights at least 150# plus! Would not surprise me if it was over 200#! Then add in the cold, which adds more strain to your lungs and body, your muscles... You may call him old but I am willing to bet he can out do most twenty something’s and thirty somethings! Went you work as he has to survive it does stuff to you’re body that no gym can do. It is like growing up on a farm all of your life.

[@woden_the_wanderer]

I love these videos. I can actually smell the fire, the wood burning, crackling and it reminds me of my childhood sitting in my parents, grandparents homes in a mining village in Scotland with a fire roaring and keeping us warm. Sometimes we just sat around the hearth and kept the TV off and watched the flames dance and shoot the breeze. And that's what's missing with society now, we have lost our hearth, the focal point where the family congregated and spoke about whatever came to mind, young minds creating their dreams, and older ones reliving theirs. Too many minds are clogged with unnecessary nonsense, celebrity, lying politician, depressing programs discussing drugs, conspiracy theories, wars etc instead of watching the flames dance and creating your own thoughts. Just my 2 pence

[@woden_the_wanderer]

@tomtolbert32 it sure is. I was working up in the Highlands a year or so back and walked by a house that was burning a coal fire and the smell was one I hadn't experienced in a few years. An explosion of memories came back and set me up for the day. A nice camp with a great fire going is what sets us back to a mental Terra Firma, grounding us and making sure we can reprioritise what is important to us

My last five years I caretook a backcountry cabin on 100 acres that was primitive since it was built around the late 1800's and partially restored. Off grid, oil lamps, wood stoves, water in the creek where I kept my fresh fish. That was all a long time ago now. Just wanted to say that I enjoy your video's.

"if you use bigger logs, the fire will last longer". How did I never think of that? Genius!

[@PeterSahlins]

A good way to make a log last while also generating good heat is to get one log (at least a foot, preferably 2 feet wide) and a good 2-3 feet long. Build a small camp fire to get some embers going and split the big log in two halves. Put one half on the ground, so that you have it length wise perpendicular to your sleeping area, and spread the embers on top of this half log. Then place two small (1 inch) pebbles on the corners facing you, and put the other half of the log on top. This should last you at least 8 hours of continuous heat (we've gotten 12+ hours from one). And in the morning you could fan it to get a solid fire going from the what's left of it.

Usually when I have a bad day I go to the woods and set by a campfire,always calms me down,best therapy u can get,this was a neat way to build a fire thanks for sharing sir

[@NatesOutdoors]

Next best thing when living in suburbia and have a man that hates nature: watch these videos...

[@NatesOutdoors]

Michelle Dawn ahh I'm sorry ur man hates nature lol that's a bummer to me the woods is like a new movie and what's even better is that it's free lol

[@lolllllll]

Recently gotten into bugging out hardcore and now bushcraft, actually combined my bugout bag with some basic bushcraft gear and this is such valuable knowledge, wow. Very easy to understand and maintain, thank you! Hardest part is gonna manhandling an entire tree base but I'll get it there using this as inspiration! 💪💪💪💪

[@josephmountford2292]

Build the fire where you find the base log or cut it down so you don’t have to move it

[@cookaboorra]

You are not lacking of force, man !!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH

[@void6714]

10:30 exactly what I needed to hear, true words.

[@GeneTrujillo]

The older I get, the more I appreciate a good saw.

[@jerrysponagle3881]

I agree ...my depression n bipolar is killing me slowly....I used to spend all of my time outdoors...but life took away that slowly....you sitting there by your fire...brought me back in time

[@alanlister8810]

Haven't watched any TV since I discovered your channel. Pure 100% entertainment. Thankyou

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Glad you discovered the channel here. Welcome.

[@alexg2083]

10:20 almost teared up at how poetic and true that thought was man. God bless.

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

Anybody that has been in the wild totally understands his wisdom in taking that time to just enjoying the peace and quiet

[@dandanfree2925]

your teaching should be in the school curriculum.!!!!!!! We appreciate your strenght & patience.Best fire logs video.

[@bdcm1]

Everything about this video is perfect. The man looks the part. Instruction is straight forward. No yammering. Great voice. And old man strength! I imagine some family in a minivan gets stuck in a ditch somewhere. This guy comes out of the woods with a chain in his hands and just tugs their vehicle out. Then he soothes the screaming kids with that voice, before disappearing back into the brush.

[@Mixwell1983]

I can listen to a fire hissing and popping all night long. Soo soothing

[@petekraemer6613]

This is great, no nonsense, no drama-What`s not to love ;- )

[@zombieepapaja1108]

i miss being in the wilderness, camping by the fire, you always have things to do and prepare, but once you are done it's so rewarding and relaxing

[@morgathanify]

that bit around 10mins was touching, thanks for that.

[@MedicatedMaid]

Am I the only one here to watch this video for the memories of warmth from a fire? Keep your content coming, subbed!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Thanks for the sub and welcome to the channel.

[@carrdoug99]

re-watching this older video and your shout reminds me. You have turned me onto two of my favorite KZbin channels (3 including yours😉), Survival Russia and NW Primate. So thank you. In the case of NW Primate, I can't thank you enough. He is simply the most talented instructor of friction fire I have ever seen (taken my friction fire skills to the next level). You three are the real deal👍

[@em0_tion]

Thank you for the pleasure of allowing us into your warm company and sharing your knowledge. 🔥

[@rlancin]

Best part was just watching you enjoy the fire in peace. Perhaps you can share a story or two about your experiences in life. That would really make an impactful and interesting video to watch. Thanks and subscribed!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Thanks for subscribing and welcome to the channel. I recently did a two part video series where I told some stories of some of my past life experiences. You may enjoy watching those videos if you enjoy stories.

That is indeed a good reliable long slow burning fire lay, I used this over 25 yrs ago many times when I was living a horse drawn nomadic lifestyle, back then we referred to it as the gypsy lay fire because that's were I first saw it in use and it was their preferred method because of its low maintenance and slow burn, seeing Lars use it a couple yrs back made me chuckle, nice one Lonnie, atb and have a good Xmas, Paul.

[@starlingblack814]

Thanks Loni, I've never seen this fire lay before. From 1971 to 1978 I lived in Alaska and spent many a night in a lean-to with a long fire to heat it. I think this Siberian All Night Fire would have been a little more efficient. Not that I really minded ever throwing another log on the long fire. Again, thanks for bringing back fond old memories.

[@blueshadow3291]

The last Viking !!!!!!! Mister i salute you on the name of Odin!!!!!💙💙💙

You and Lars are my go-to guys for common sense, down to earth outdoor skills. Thanks.

[@graynephalim]

Great video. First couple minutes and I could see that you knew what you were doing. Didn't hurt to see your old bones throw that log around on your shoulder like hurcules. I'm diggin this channel now. Show me more!

[@noelabourgoin4561]

Thank you for this! I sleep in the woods at my farm, by choice and gathering wood everyday is a chore. I have to move often because I have used up all the wood. This will make life easier

[@lu_arko7914]

Life is good. Take care of you. Stay wild. Thank you sir. Love and peace from Germany ✌️

[@bluebandit4634]

Wow mate u in pretty good shape that carrying a tree like it was nothing. I was like this is more an ad for clean living I need to get out of the city more. I want to grow up old and strong like u are

[@jeremymorrison263]

That's what I said bro! This dude is in great shape. Clean living does a body good.

[@drinkthekoolaidkids]

Not saying hes not in shape , but dry wood weighs about 1/3 of that of green wood .

[@3a.m.284]

I hate group txt !!!!!!!! I mean he cut the tree down in the video yeah? Then it's pretty green still. Idk tho I was distracted about that part of the video

[@propaneandpropaneaccessori3446]

@@3a.m.284 it was already down idiot, he cut it in half

[@itwouldbesoawesomeitwouldb6280]

@@propaneandpropaneaccessori3446 You never know how long it was sitting, it could have recently been cut down and not to mention it's been exposed out into the elements. Pine like that weighs less than most wood I would say the pieces he put on the main log would weigh around 60-80 pounds on average. Which is far easier to lift than any harder woods like Oak!

Lars as well as yourself and Connie produce real, usable, information that the subscriber can modify to his or her immediate need. This no nonsense, genuine content, provides the viewer with the realistic, intellectual tools to not just survive, but appreciate hostile, extreme climatic conditions. Here's to wishing you and Mrs., a peace filled, contemplative Christmas Season and Prosperous New Year.

Learned allot from your video, Lonnie as always. Thank you! I'm going to have to try this my next winter camp out! You are a mentor with valuable knowledge and experience! I respect that about you very much!

[@BMazeing]

This is my favorite of your videos, Lonnie and Connie. Very refreshing, especially after a tough day.

[@MaffTUK]

Couldn’t agree more with your philosophy Lonne I may get just over 24 hours sometimes to get away, light a fire, and despite the work in wood gathering and prep etc I can relax and just sit in front of the fire and do nothing and let all those daily issues just melt away just for a short time. I love it.. another cracking vid, regards Matt
