Brilliant in its simplicity.

[@i-hillbilly]

Well done, Lonnie. I like that one a lot.

[@markcummings6856]

That’s a sweet setup! Thanks for sharing.

[@jeffgrier8488]

That is a great looking shelter, thanks for sharing!

[@macEboy]

Thank you both for the great tent idea!

[@TheAngryHippie]

You guys are the best. Connie, Lonnie, and Buck. Happy new year to all of you.

[@timvest8141]

Cool setup. That's one to try.

[@kipviteo2274]

Great idea. Thank you so much!!

[@danaowen9014]

Thats such a usefull tent.

[@bigracer3867]

What a wonderful north country you live in. I'm stuck in the lower 48. So hot can fry an egg on my truck hood. Hope to see more great vids.

[@MaxAmmoNeeded]

Great video, thanks.

[@hebrewoutdoors1851]

Love it wow I'm going to try it thank you

[@mikel6668]

great video

[@kylelusk8994]

Good lord that’s a lot of wind. I can’t imagine how many new words and phrases Connie learned! Very nice video my friend.

[@philippehebrard3207]

Very nice video thank you

[@shadowbanned1134]

Good demo especially in the wind. It shows people that they can do it too. Never buy an expensive tent, just buy tarps, mosquito netting, and/or zippers and get a-sewing, or just do what Lonnie does!

[@ModernRefugee]

I’ve learned more for your channel then any other on KZbin. Thank you.

[@ScottWorthington]

Pretty neat setup. Thanks for sharing. Y'all are appreciated, Connie, Lonnie, & Buck.

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

Great setup, I've never seen this one. Thanks to you both Lonnie and Connie and Buck. Ya'll stay safe.

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Cool stuff Lonnie! I’d try it if I had some dirt. I’m in Whitehorse and Carcross for 5 days. Windy and unsettled over in these mountains, too! I’d be weary of cooking in my tent in bear country, but I seem to remember you run a bear fence. Take care over there!

[@Ladythyme]

Great setup! I give 5 stars for even attempting to do this video in that wind! 😂 Great Job! Thank You!

[@fredthorne9692]

I'll hand it to you, it must have really enjoyable the record this tutorial. The end result was one of sheer ingenuity and demonstrated the great utility of this design. Your labor under those conditions, speaks for itself. Even an old coot, such as myself, might be able to pull this one off! Thanks for this fantastic demonstration.

[@patriciamartinez4056]

Lonnie and Connie! Friends I have not met... The coolest attitude in the coldest latitude!

[@williamkinnear345]

Great spot for showing a marvellous setup Lonnie

[@cloudraker100]

What people are missing is that the wind keeps the bugs down. Great video

[@1stcSOLDIER]

Sure the wind is great for that but I prefer less wind and citronella.

[@psycholocke4090]

your sound improved greatly. in such conditions getting a clear voice is quite hard. congratulations to you for improving in that area

[@jayceewedmak9524]

Always appreciate you both :)

[@Turha500]

Great!

[@tharonerikson8398]

Hello, nice Countryside! I like that view! Thank you for sharing this technik with us! With that knowledge, the building of ancient saxontents make sense. In that way, you could build a tent out of 3 sails...and it looks axactly like the tents on old pictures.

[@ustabefast]

Wow That sky!...and awesome tarp set up!

[@NatesOutdoors]

Well thats a cool setup,it's definitely strong enough to with stand a windstorm lol thanks for sharing Lonnie and connie,I really appreciate it

[@ibmoosed]

Never seen that before I’m going to try it Must have been difficult in the wind like that Connie and Lonnie rocks

[@Hoonozit]

Hi Lonnie and Connie. Thanks for another video, It's always good to hear from you.

[@davidkurle5418]

Thank you for yet another great video! You and Connie are the best!

[@craigbetts1586]

excellent DIY video on using 3 tarps to make this shelter and the view of the mountains in the background was amazing

[@davidharvey5672]

As windy as it was, that went up easily. Thanks you two great job, hope all is well with you.

[@ColHatley]

Great idea you all, very spacious and cozy. Thanks for sharing Lonnie and Connie. ATB Von

[@MichaelR58]

Lonnie and Connie, thanks for sharing, beautiful scenery, always a pleasure to watch your videos.and learn something new atb 👍

[@unclemikeb]

That's downright clever. Seems like in another video you showed how to fold a tarp back under so it had a floor. Maybe if the end tarps were a bit bigger you could do that?

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Yes the end tarps do have a bit of folded over tarp inside but not enough to cover the entire floor. It would probably be easiest just to bring an extra ground cloth of some sort to place on the floor.

[@gstokely7]

Thanks for sharing and really enjoyed watching this video. Learning something new every day.

[@cybrowl6468]

Very nice setup lots of room and a great multiple day setup for en-climate weather. another great video keep them coming. The best to you both.

[@1stcSOLDIER]

Another useful video L and C so thank you

[@kidbach]

awesome set up. thanks, Mr. Bushcraft Wizard.

[@MuskratOutdoors]

Great looking camp Lonnie. What type of tarps are those? They look like thin, light nylon almost like a parachute. Where do you get them and were they expensive? Great looking country! I love those mountains!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

The two end tarps are 8 X 10 foot nylon and the middle green tarp is a 12 X 12 foot nylon. I think I got them all at a physical store called "Sportsmans Warehouse" many years ago. I also used to order occasionally from an outdoor products catalog store called Campmor. Campmor is online at it's name plus dot com. They have a good selection of nylon tarps including these sizes last I looked but I have not ordered from them for many many years so can not recommend one way or another as to their current quality of products or service.

[@MuskratOutdoors]

@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival Thank you. There is a Sportsman's Warehouse 150 miles North of us in Missoula, Montana. Next trip up, I'll look for one.

[@AdventureTimeOutdoors]

Cool setup Lonnie! To hold up to those winds it's a solid setup too.

[@sosteve9113]

You can build this type of shelter in sections ,however what suits you at that given time Great shelter

[@SurvivalTheory]

Awesome setup. Makes me want to carry 3 tarps into the field! Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work!

[@backwoodstrails]

If you put your adjustable knot on the tarp end (as opposed to the stake end) you won't get as wet if you need to tension your tarp in the rain.

[@mikereiff4516]

Good sugestion.

Some people could share "anything" and still get 2 thumbs up!

[@bocah_hutanreal666]

You did a very great job Master ... as always... I've just uploaded my newest bushcraft video.. And for the next I will make a bushcraft chair with pants based on your video, hope you don't mind at all .. credit will be written .... May you and your family always in a great condition master .....

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

I do not mind at all if you choose to share skills learned here on my channel. Feel free to use any ideas you may get from my channel. That will be awesome if you do give credit. I have already watched and thumbs up your most recent video.

[@STYLEHUAHINONAIR]

very nice i love camping.

[@oldquestant6-238]

Hey Lonnie, I've been suscribed for a while and commented, but, with a different name. We had a discussion about toilet paper and personal esteem we referred to "Moss". Hey, another excellent piece of instruction, and well demonstrated. Give Connie a hug for all of us watch and enjoy the two of you. O Q 6 - 23

[@criscross6591]

👍👍

[@shadowbanned1134]

I would like to see a video explaining how to set up a tarp tent that will prevent rain from flowing underneath it, or do you have that video already? Thanks again for your good videos and time.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

We virtually never worry about those issues here since it rarely rains hard enough or long enough to cause a problem. However for those who are in areas that experience severe rainfall at times, folks often will trench around their shelter to redirect runoff water away from the shelter.

[@ParaBellum282]

"My name is Lonnie, and this is my pet bear, Buck."

[@walterpalmer2749]

Most excellent Lonnie !! This setup gives lots of room. I wouldn't have thought of it.

[@BjornAndreasBull-Hansen]

Awesome tarp tent. It looks a lot like the «Saxon» tents used in medieval fairs. Very practical.

[@zulufoxx3829]

I always enjoy your videos. You have a great ability to communicate. Thanks for putting in the time & effort!

[@amyc4880]

Amazing thank you this is helpful where I live cause my tent is 100 degrees inside right now and this will help cool me down

[@windowclean100]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@mikehopper9516]

Nice one Lonnie and Connie. I like this set -up. I'm going to the Sierra Nevada's this week and I'm gonna try this one out. Thanks!

[@benflammer7217]

Lonnie, I have the same flannel shirt you do. Great shirt, right!?!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Yes it is a good shirt. I prefer wearing flannel shirts like this one most of the year for my everyday living. I will wear an outdoor polyester, wool or polyester fleece shirt most of the time when on backcountry trips though for their quicker drying abilities.

[@Dazrena]

Can you show us how to make a Bushcraft kite as well? It looks like a great day for it. :)

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

I was trying to refold my tarps while in my front yard after doing this video and the tarps were "flying" wonderfully. Unfortunately that was not what I was wanting them to do at the time. It was a bit of a challenge to get them folded by myself. Lol

[@lindastansell37]

Great tent. Keep the video's coming. I really enjoy them

[@WhatsUpWithSheila]

👍 thank you...even in the wind, it held strong.

[@kenthompson6539]

I see they are spraying your skies to!!!!!

[@chevybill1833]

What is the name or brand on your tarps? They look very light weight! Great video, hope you and Connie are enjoying your summer!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

I believe that these are "Lewis And Clark" tarps made of nylon. I no longer remember where i got them for sure but think I got them from Sportsmans Warehouse many many years ago.

[@miaroche8182]

First! Great video as always keeping the great work!

[@Steve-O_462]

Hello, I enjoyed the video. Thank you Both. ✌️ Would you mind sharing the name of the inline knot to cinch your Guy lines?

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

The knot is called the Farrimond Hitch. It is a knot that I really like. However, it is just like they say about exercise. "use it or lose it." I had to go back and watch the video in the link below myself since I could neither remember the name or how to tie the knot. It is embarrassing when I have to go back and watch MY OWN videos to relearn how to do something. lol Three VERY Useful Backwoods Knots kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWmrenmVor56l5I

[@ericwiitala5407]

Hi Lonnie! Great idea! There's a lot of space there and I can see how a long fire in front of that would be quite comfortable.

[@tome7323]

👍👍👍👍

[@paulbales3513]

I really like the idea of the tarp set up! It's a brilliant idea! Add another one for a floor and it's game on. Looks mostly wind and weather proof. Great design for camping/ shelter on the cheap!

[@tomcondon6169]

You could have a companion video and show folks how you carved out your uprights. I could see the work you put into the top of it. Also, how to tie that slip knot. We at the power company used to call that a monkeys fist, though I know there is a different monkeys fist...

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

The adjustable knot is called the Farrimond Hitch and is taught in my video at the link below. The upright poles were just narrowed up at the top for the last inch or so, so that the end would slip into the grommet. Three VERY Useful Backwoods Knots kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWmrenmVor56l5I

hi Buck lol

[@John-tg5vn]

Thanks Lonnie

[@H6771-s6q]

Howdy, Matthew Hammer here. Could use something short for medical care/burns. Got in a bad propane leak explosion. My beard and hair saved my head from flash. In bad shape. Straight aloe vera works best but what if I were at elk camp a day from help?

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Spruce pitch is wonderful for reducing pain and using on burns. Yes it can be messy but I personally would rather look a mess but be actively protecting my health in a case like that. Also the inner pith of fireweed (Chamaenerion angustifolium) is known as a traditional healer and treatment for burns. It is interesting that one of the first to grow and most prolific plants to repopulate a burned off area is fireweed which is also a traditional herb used for treating burns. Willow bark made into a decoction to drink or willow leaves can be chewed to also help alleviate pain in the same way that aspirin is used. Indeed aspirin was originally made from willow bark.

[@H6771-s6q]

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Hello Terry. Below are several of my videos you may enjoy watching. There are quite a few essential oils that are repellent in nature and can be quite effective though they require frequent re-application. Citronella, cedarwood and lemongrass are just a few that come to mind. One can mix the essential oils with alcohol, water or even witch hazel.

Hello from some fans from Georgia USA, we love your videos😇😇😇

You know Lonnie I am glad that you don't work out of a little Inn in Vermont because I would be worried you might say this is my wife Connie and this is my other wife Connie. I know this will never happen because your other brother Darryl told me so. The information you provide may seem simple and basic but you have a great way of delivering good information that is not a joke and is really helpful.
