Old DUGOUT was visited by STRANGERS, I'm waiting for winter in a cozy shelter

#dugout #shelter #logcabin
I decided to visit my old hideout in the forest, the visit turned out to be very interesting. My forest shelter was visited again by guests - strangers. What have they done to my house?
I have prepared firewood in anticipation of winter. I cleaned up all the garbage inside the house and bathed in the sauna. In the evening I cooked a delicious dish - mushroom soup.

So Glad "strangers" got to spend time in a tranquil cabin and not destroy your hard work. Be safe my friend..

[@apar1560]

I agree, why leave latch un-done on door though ? Not a big deal. Nice upload ! Relaxing to watch...except for the tree hauling. But then again I'm 61 yrs old. Just hurts to watch him carry them. Lol. ...Alan in 🇨🇱

[@margarethooten3007]

That's something that crosses my mind once in awhile; have you ever heard of bad folks wandering around and doing damage to anyone's build?

[@Atlin.]

in the Yukon we leave our cabins unlocked for strangers. people out doing the same thing, exploring the land, hunting or boating. bad accidents happen out in the wild. they never steal or destroy the property

[@apar1560]

Atlin::: I agree with not locking it up. But the latch, that may keep some of the critters out of the building

[@Atlin.]

You should make a sign inside cabin tgat says : welcome to my cabin. Thank you for leaving it the way you found it. That should help you when/ if other strangers use it

[@Lazarus-aap]

OMG!! Seriously!? You have a secret cabin with a secret sauna build in!?!? How have I not seen your channel before!? So cool, dude! I LOVE this!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@betaraybill3548]

That's so peaceful. Reading a book in the woods in an isolated cabin.

[@theondebray]

I remote areas that I have visited, people always leave a little food of some sort, usually tinned, plus matches. The custom is that take what you need (if you need any), but leave something in return for the safety & survival of others.

[@melissaemery2365]

I missed this place. I'm glad it is still doing well & treated respectfully by visitors.

Hey @alex those strangers were blessed to spend time in such an awesome dugout.

I'm 65 now but if I could go back to a younger age I would definitely do this .

[@rickbudrow2230]

That plant is called a Pinky Promise Snowberry: The attractive, mounding form makes it a lovely plant to fill in borders. Just as summer flowers fade, bubblegum-pink ornamental berries fill this shrub amongst the glossy green foliage, and last through fall

[@TrialAndError8713]

I just read up on snowberry. It's native to the Pacific Northwest of America, and is a food source for birds and wildlife in the winter. The berries are not edible to humans, but they are a natural source for saponin, a natural soap-like substance, and Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest used it as a means to clean their skin and hair. It naturalizes well in other places, and is considered an excellent garden shrub. There's more information, but I'll leave it up to Alex and his other viewers to look it up. Your guests chose a good plant for your cabin!

[@tattooninja]

Yup I recognized snowberry right away. We have them all over here in the PNW. I grow & sell them. They're really tough & often used for restoration projects. They don't need any care really, & the tiny pink flowers are pretty neat. They'll spread easily by underground rhizomes.

[@TrialAndError8713]

@@tattooninja how do they do with alkaline soil and extremely cold winters?

[@tattooninja]

@@TrialAndError8713 They survive down to at least minus 40. Supposedly they prefer slightly alkaline clay, but we have mostly sandy soil here, acidic. They grow everywhere from full shade in the forest, to full sun on the driveway.

[@larszenthio1012]

When I was at school in the 60s in Sweden, we called them Poppy-berry. When they were ripe, we squeezed them until they burst with a pop. 🧒🤏😉

Welcome back, I've missed your broadcasts. The plant is a snowberry (pearl tree) or Symphoricarpos Caprifoliaceae if you want to be precise. It can grow to 6 feet tall and sends out roots in all directions. If you wish to balance the shape or reduce the size of the branches, best is to prune at the beginning of spring. The berries appear at the end of summer and last all through winter, but beware, the berries are POISONOUS. Hope your health has returned to normal. I have missed you. Ontario.

Hola! Soy nuevo suscriptor, sé que no hablas español así que hablaré en español básico para que sea sencillo traducir. Este es el primer video que veo, me gustaría ver contenido relacionado a toilet, quiero saber qué tan complicado resulta hacer popó en una cabaña como esa, soy consciente que puedes orinar afuera, pero sobre el hacer popó es un tema que nunca he visto y al estar al aire libre en el bosque resulta interesante

[@tardismole]

Great friend for planting the rosehip. Very useful plant and very tasty. The other plant looks like a common snowberry, also called waxberry and ghostberry. If it is, the wildlife will like it. Don't eat the berries. Instead, rub them into small wounds. The stems can be boiled to make soap. It's a medicinal plant, but use it sparingly as it is toxic in large quantities. Also, worryingly, it's not native to Europe or Asia, so would be classed as invasive. If it's not a common snowberry, I'm not sure what it could be.

I don't know if anyone else responded or not, but the white berries look to be Snowberry. I just moved to the Pacific Northwest a week ago, and went for my first hike that very day. I came across the same berries, and identified them as Snowberries, poisonous to humans, but not to animals (apparently). Very pretty bush....inviting....but just for looks. Maybe there is a medicinal purpose to them, I don't know.
