I hope everyone gets out on December 5 to honour Mors by just being out in the forest & maybe having a coffee. 🔥🇨🇦

[@voodoosausage4137]

I’m sure Mors would be delighted you’re building on his advice rather than canonising it and never updating it. Nice job dude!

[@hiddenwoodsben]

he even said that, i don't know in which book it was again, when he talked about zirks (ferrorods).

[@ogi22]

@@hiddenwoodsben We are standing on the shoulders of those who came before us. That's why we can get higher and see further. I agree, Mors would be delighted :)

[@hiddenwoodsben]

@@ogi22 i wholeheartedly agree

[@chevelless7261]

Great video and nice way to be off the ground....Freedom for all people...

[@TheSaneHatter]

The "Super Shelter" concept has become so expansive, and so varied in its applications, that it probably deserves its own, standalone book or survival course by now. It's gone well beyond just being a subset of Kochanski's teachings.

[@richardjackson7110]

Having had Mors as an Instructor he was most assuredly knowledgeable and paid homage to the 1t Nations people who had taught him up in the far North. He made those models for up to 4 and that group was in tshirts while the fire was up. Good memories thx

[@gummy1188]

Honestly, I've found that adding an ordinary household spoon to a kit is important. It's durable, doesn't take up much space, and its shape and mouthfeel will be familiar to you, which is a psychological plus in my opinion.

[@maxpinson5002]

The average eating utensils weigh practically nothing and it beats trying to carve something all to hell. If you're on a leisurely car camping trip, I guess trying out your whittling skills might be alright. I like to have ready made useable utensils and rope and medical items at hand and ready to use immediately and not have to improvise something, especially during an emergency. One should learn the skills to improvise things, but not solely rely on carving a cup or finding medicinal plants when you're ill

[@FRANK-qv7wg]

Great vid on adding to Mors Kochanski survival kit. Mors was known for “the more you know the less you carry” His super shelter was brilliant for the boreal forest winter survival.

[@KT_survival]

It's so good to see the legacy of the legendary Mors Kochanski. His Super Shelter concept is really brilliant, can be adapted and evolve in time. Thank you Andrew, Mors would be proud and happy!

[@peterott9162]

Mors would be happy that his shelters are still being utilized and upgraded with respect. Great content brother!

[@JH-6]

Every kit, even Mors', can and should be tweaked depending on the expectation and experiences of the survivor. As always you make an entertaining and educational video. Cannot wait to see this kit in action. Thanks for sharing

[@corleyoutdoors2887]

Each video is getting better and better Major. Thank you for your efforts to give us survival knowledge.

[@johnburgin7478]

Leaf debris should definitely help . Good tribute to Mors . Thanks for bringing us along . Have a good one

[@EnduranceRoom]

Nice job on the mattress! I like the insulation you added.

[@Jaden48108]

Really cool Mors Kochanski adaptation.

[@ofrddriftr]

I have no idea how I had not came across you earlier, but I will now be binge watching your videos.

[@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft]

Welcome!

[@eriktaylor5704]

Improve, adapt, and overcome. I respect all the work Mors has done for survival and bushcrafting, but I also appreciate the adaptations made by practitioners like yourself. As advances in technology and materials present themselves, it is only right that these are consider.

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

That’s an ideal modification to the super shelter. Outstanding instruction as as always. 🤙

[@Xtreme808machine]

adding leaves to the bag is a great idea!!! thanks for sharing!

[@brandyhouston2105]

No there's nothing wrong with me, I just watched this video again and liked it again. Thanks for making the video.

[@fukemnukem1525]

That shelter idea was absolutely awesome. Love that idea. Thanks for all of the education. Love this channel.

[@cindyjean3208]

The ingenuity of man never ceases to amaze me!!! Excellent content… love your videos…always learn something new… Looking forward to those outdoor winter videos incorporating this raised bed/super shelter… Thanks for taking us along on your adventures… they are a blessing to me… 🙏🏻🥰

[@truckerenoch8824]

One thing I suggest for bushmen over 40 who wear glasses, is a 10× jewelers loop. Just a cheap plastic one that will fit around your eye, hands free (about $4). For removing slivers, reading tiny print, starting fires, or any other tasks that require more vision than your standard glasses can afford you. I carry one daily and have 1 in my truck, car, bug out bag and edc kit.

[@baronedipiemonte3990]

Good evening Major. There's nothing wrong with improving on something. I'm quite that Mr. Kochanski wasn't born with his talents for bushcraft. He had to learn from someone. And no doubt HE improved on a few things he learned from others. You learned from him and the Army. We learn craft from you, and live to teach it to others ! As of this afternoon, I have one "emergency/survival kit" 125% complete, and a second one just at 80%...need another Sawyer water filter, and a tarp/poncho & wobbie (the Swiss ponchos would require cutting and taping/sewing for shelter use). Looking forward to your next !

[@Horde334]

A solid temporary fix for the lack of grommets on a poncho is simply finding some kind of filler material for the primary corners something like a small piece of wood with rough edges knocked off or a smooth stone of some kind along those lines then you just loop some cordage around it after a light overlap and that'd be a temporary idea.

[@baronedipiemonte3990]

@@Horde334 those Swiss ponchos are designed and sewn to be worn (10 years ago I got 5 brand new for $15). They don't lay flat when open like U.S. poncho. I have a brand new U.S. poncho and matching wubbie arriving this week. So I'll just use the Swiss ones for what they were intended.

[@urbanoutdoors3112]

Can’t wait to try this design. Bring on the cold !!!

[@marvintheroadviking4238]

Can’t wait for the Winter Survival Videos. Love the Information and Techniques for Survival you bring to KZbin.

What you have done has convinced me that I was right for lightening my load. Thanks brotherman. " Semper Fi!"

[@JJ-JOHNSON]

Sweet shelter Andrew.

[@vancouverislandbushcraft4879]

That was an excellent video....many, many little tips tp remember. I was cutting the bags on both ends and not filling them with debris...just one great tip after another....great job...from an ex military army guy

[@kendralynn2490]

Fan-freakin-tastic! This is brilliant. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, skills, and innovation!!! I LOVE this channel!!

[@maryhairy1]

Love this! Great way to have a suspended bed instead of a hammock, unless the bin liners tear, which would be a disaster!

[@markpoore3260]

I went to a karamat class about 15 yrs ago and mors taught us the super shelter it got down to 15 below zero at night and stayed around 60-65 degrees during the day and 50s at night with a long big fire 3 paces away mors loved big fires

[@herbsmith6871]

Cool stuff my friend 🤠

[@paulharding1621]

I really like a raised bed in the style shown , have not used leaves etc for the additional insulation, will definitely try that.

[@blueoutside3394]

If need be you could heat rocks up next to the fire (not rocks that have been in water) and push them near or under the shelter for added heat. Great video. Thanks for this

[@titanium162]

I have found a piece of parachute fabric to close in the leeward side helps with condensation and ventilates the shelter. Packs up pretty tight too.

[@dannythomas648]

With this thank you. Now i got a way. To keep my BIG Body off the ground and warm

[@johnkline5930]

Great job Andrew!!! Awesome class on the super shelter upgrade and MKs 2 kilo survival kit! I heard something about winter survival training…Do I sense something fun on the horizon? I can’t wait to see more! Keep up the Fire!!!

[@prostarmansd]

I slept in one of these almost identical to this and it was hot! It was negative 20F and I had to strip down to my base layer. Pretty darn awesome stuff! Thanks for the video!

[@jasongarling20]

Great video! Great set up! I personally like two racks on the tripods..bunkbead style, I use the other bunk to keep my gear dry! And other things close at hand, easy to grab from other bunk. Keep up the training as always!

[@BUZZKILLJRJR]

Great video that's what my kit looked like when I was young and poor haha 😂 I'm not being mean at all, it was simple and cheap so I could still have a blast. We used plastic from job sites that has that fiber reinforcement and mule tape from the electricians I used it many times for hoisting my pack up higher in the tree to keep it away from animals among other things.

[@thejulesfather]

Tripods and the bed poles! Genius :)

[@BigEddie1970]

Nice improvement on the Mor’s Super Shelter and Corporal inspired bunk.

[@paulzimmerman3895]

Yes excellent training! My favorite time of the year. Fall and winter. Always like the hobo fishing line stuff. Great little kit in itself. That Military sewing kit sure is worth its weight in titanium. Huh? Thanks for sharing and reinforcing the knowledge passed down through the ages. Gonna be training next weekend in your old stomping grounds. Sangre de Cristo range.

Very helpful. Thank you!

another good set of instuction. great job.

[@gregorycalzada5264]

STRONG WORK 😎😎😎

[@clarencespady9009]

Great shelter set up. I have read much from Mors Kochanski, I like the idea of the suspended shelter rather than cutting enough brush to build a foot thick mat. CB Spady

[@garyjohnson4608]

Outstanding video, as always !

[@BradyPatterson]

Now I'm going to have to watch your other videos to see when you slept in this type of shelter, I love this idea. I wonder about it working up here in the cold country as the supershelter used a raised bed already with no insulation underneath so that the heat from the fire could also go underneath the bed and warm from below. You my also have mentioned this in another video, but Mors recommended sizing the pot to the need. His smallest option was 1.8L but he also used much bigger pots for winter which is why your jacket didn't fit. But love this innovation!

[@natashaball316]

Thank you for the video! I really do find your gear lists and projects very helpful! :)

[@negolfman]

The tent steaks are also made of flammable material for shavings.

[@lanegardinier760]

[@outbackowl3040]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Very informative and helpful.

[@damonfinken]

Love the idea of insulating the bed with leaves/vegetation. That works in my area (midwest). I also love the idea of closing off the ends of the tube as in my area along the Missouri River, mosquitoes will eat you alive.

[@yellowboot6629]

Mors Rip! Thanks Bro❣️

[@jimmybrooks1059]

Outstanding! Totally down with the kit although I would recommend an antibiotic cream tube and bug repellent. Great job though👍 Lead the way 😎👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@stuartlockwood9645]

Hi , Andrew ,neat shelter design, will reserve comment on it until you've tested it well, as for the Mors kit, the original list of items that he recommended would still work today, but I agree whith you that advances in bushcraft items can give us some better choices now, but there's nothing wrong whith The kit he put together and if we were SOL,we'd be glad of it. Your videos demonstrate various kit in action, and can save us a whole lot of trouble in selecting items to put in our go bag, and for that you have my thanks, stay safe Major, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart uk.

[@thomasapplewhite8672]

Ingenious and practical, especially for boggy or rough areas where lying on the ground would be problematic. Who knew drum liners were that strong? Thanks for another informative video.

Hi Andrew. Do I need to watch more than the fist 30 seconds? Ther is just so much information in these few seconds. LoL Stay safe. ATB. Nigel

[@Stoney_AKA_James]

Excellent Andrew! I am not a purist, i.e. only using "old school" materials, using modern technology and materials are better ( in my opinion) i.e. cordura nylon vs cotton canvas has more advantages. And yes, I still use wool, flint and steel, etc. because they remain viable options. FYI: I have commented on many videos (like latest from Shawn) that a medium weight translucent showe curtain makes a great door for the super shelter, using 550-cord through the grommets to open and close it - just a thought.

[@treadheadpete4770]

Excellent information!
