On Snowshoes In Mud And Through The Zone Of Death

[@CaliforniaPrepper]

I am KZbin famous now! Thanks so much for answering my question and giving me a little shout out! Much appreciated my friend.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+California Prepper LOL :) Yes you are! No problem :)

[@rubenvd3913]

This is better than any soap opera on tv.

[@genegarren833]

Hello Lars. That NATO BAG would make and excellent "still hunting" and of course a cold weather "sniper bag". Often when still hunting when I was in Service, I would put my feet in a waterproof bag to keep my bag clean and then button, but not zip the bag up around me to my armpits. I would then provide a support for my back or lean back on a tree and wait for the game,usually deer to come by. We called this "ambush hunting". We knew the deer traveling route in AM and PM, and therefore were able to bag a deer. Great video as always Lars.

[@SurvivalRussia]

I think i replied earlier but now i can't see my reply?? Anyway here we go again, maybe. I love the sleeved bag and it's from 1984. Old school is the best school! Here we don't have deer. The only horned beast is moose and i hope to bag one soon. Would fit nicely in me and my friends freezers.

[@ericjx]

Really enjoying your channel. Lighthearted, informative and entertaining.

[@SurvivalRussia]

Thank you. I appreciate the compliment :)

[@nightwalker5278]

Incredible channel. I am guaranteed to learn something new every time. Thanks for sharing your skills. ATB

[@Welshrugbyfan101]

Thanks for another great video Lars. Great baking too!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Welshrugbyfan101 Thanks and thank you for watching it :) It's hard to beat bannock with bacon.

[@neilmccarron4940]

Lars for me your channel is the best ive seen so far in bushcraft stuff. I guess its because you are living it and not just playing it. Atb from neil in scotland where bushcraft is bloody tame by comparison but, never mind.

[@ronbutler6526]

That's got to rank in the top 5 of your greatest videos, holy crap, that was too much! That was the most interactive and fun approach to the viewers, and you're right, we are right there with a bong and a beer or a cup o' joe. Looks like your boots held up really well for the deep water, that's almost rubber boots / and or hip-waders territory,....fjording streams and all! Great job man! And as always, very informative and helpful, really good review on the sleep setup too. Keep gettin 'er done man : )

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Ron Butler Thanks Ron :) Yes the boots held up quite well even i got a little wet feet but they are not meant to be used like that.

[@knarlygnivesandoutdoors8034]

Lars you really are the man, you are my favorite survivalist to watch. My little girl even loves watching your channel, especially when your daughter the pink troll is in some of your videos :) I always look forward to your videos. -Kyle

[@SurvivalRussia]

Thank you very much for the compliment Kyle :)

[@patmash]

That had to be very hard to get out of. Looked, very unforgiving. Great video Lars.

[@CaliforniaPrepper]

Great video as always my friend. I learn a lot from your channel. Thanks for taking us along on your training.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+California Prepper Thank you too CP :)

[@28anchor]

Good video Lars! Bannock looked great as well. Thanks for filming, I'm sure it is twice as much work to operate cameras and train. As always,enjoyed watching. Take care

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Canuck Bushman Yes making video makes everything take double/triple the time. In a way it's good because it adds a kind of "stress" factor :)Glad you like my channel :)

[@jjjvclub]

Another great video, loved it. Bannock and bacon Yum Yum looked great. Thanks for sharing!

[@adulfdabo898]

Thanks again for sharing!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Adulf Dabo Thank you very much for watching :)

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

Zone of death and zone of certain death you sure have interesting places in Russia. Hard to beat cast iron for cooking. That Bannock and the bacon, there was a store in Florida where you could get bacon like that, sure was a delicious meal. Thanks Lars. atb Opal

[@MeNTaLFLoSsPeaPatch]

Good job again Lars. Really like all the videos and are very inspiring to "Get out there and train...get it done". For sure, one of my favorite KZbinrs. Would like to see more of the little truck and what has become of it. Keep up the good work.

[@garland978]

Thanks for another great video Lars. That bannock made me hungry and the zone of death was very interesting.

[@timstadlmueller58]

Hey thanks for teaching practical survival skills, your channel rocks. Also nice family you've got there, you must be proud!

[@alexr4493]

Great channel! Regarding the black MSS sleeping bag: These came in a few different forms. The older black bags were, as you noted, quite bulky and heavy. Sometime in the early or mid-2000s, the military improved the insulation in these, and the bag became much lighter and more compressible. If you are interested in trying out the improved bag, look for a gray-colored "Rapid Fielding Initiative (RFI)" model. The snaps will be in the same places.

[@southernlandsolo7839]

The zone of certain death. Aliens: no one hears you when you scream lol. You videos are great to watch Lars. Pretty rugged land you have out there mate. Thanks for sharing.

[@thetorchchannel357]

Hey Lars. I've just found your channel within the last couple weeks, but now it's hard to find a video of yours I haven't seen !! You have a lot of valuable information to share, some I've already used. (although I'll need to wait for spring to try the Spruce buds !! They sound tasty !!) Anyway, love your vids, please keep em comin !! Stay Safe, Happy Tramping !! I'm so jealous you have a Predator Tree !!!

[@SurvivalRussia]

LOL :) Thank you very much! It's actually still there making that sound.

[@tactical8842]

Excellent video Lars, keep up the excellent work. You certainly had your work cut out crossing that wet ground. The Bannock looked absolutely delicious with the bacon. Look forward to your Russian fighting knife video. Atb

[@SurvivalRussia]

+TacticAL Thanks! Yes it was not easy but i cross the 2 "death zones" every time i go to that forest, so i know the area. I will work on the knife video this weekend :)Cheers buddy!

[@fieldagent59isintheforest32]

"the zone of death" and if that wasn't bad enough, "the zone of certain death"...very funny, cracked me up while I was eating breakfast......love your channel

[@nikku13]

Great video as always. Thanks for all the work you put into it.

[@canadianbushman8982]

Good technique with the Silky Saw. So many guys push on them when you did it right by just sliding in into the wood and cutting on the pull stroke.

[@monicajones8450]

Very nice Trip Lars. Glad your not waist deep in show in that camp. I own a Ka-bar USMC and love it. I am very interested in the video about your knife. Love your videos. Stay safe.

[@lalunette]

Nice to see you making bannock as well. It is always part of my camping experience !!

[@toma674]

I love fighting knives..looking forward to what you have..seemed to be some decent weather you were having there,that bannock looked awesome..surprised ya didn't attract some bear with that bacon smell wafting through the woods..always great to see ya out there in the woods Lars..be safe and take care my friend,hoping all is well with your family..cheers!

[@kevinkrueger865]

In the Army I slept in an intermediate bag with poncho for inclamate weather. That bag was used in the heat of death valley to the cold weather of the Hauf border. I've never seen a sleep system. My buddy from the 82nd just slept in his woobie.

[@johnscott1959]

Great video as always thanks lars

[@tomritter493]

Lars never stops amazing me how your country just turns into all kinds of nasty cold water mud but big bad ways lol well looked like another great trip luck with your hunting nice to see you luck ....tom

[@SurvivalRussia]

+kabaruser Thank you Tom. As goes for forest/woodland this is a very tough area actually for a number of reasons. A few is, it's quite flat so orientation is difficult. You will never get a look over the canopy. It's swamped in many places even in summer and we have NO rocks or stones what so ever. Bugs and a lot of other reasons. It's actually an old "camp" area where people went not to return.

[@tomritter493]

+Survival Russia dang death swamp man that rough sounds like some training missions. IV been on lol well you know how to get in and out so cheers atb .tom

[@corvusduluth]

Lars I must say it again, you are funny as heck! " Of course everything tastes better with bacon", " a nice little bannock we have here", gently caresses the bannock! Ha! Super!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Circumpolar Bear Cult Than you very much :) LOL

[@thaspiritf9234]

Zone of death and zone of certain death! Such comedy! Aliens reference, Awesome! And that bannock looked fkn delicious. Great videos, keep up the good work!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+thaSpirit f Thank you! :) I see you paid attention :)

[@dazinthesticks]

Hello Lars , great video and cool sleep set up. Thanks for sharing.Atb Darren.

[@gordonmiller4439]

Nice video out in the zone that is between the "Zone of Death" and the "Zone of Certain Death", ha ha ha! Tough going in the wet, cold swamp; high ground is relative to the terrain of the AO you are in. ;-) I had the opportunity to use a borrowed one of the sleeved NATO bags, on a winter field exercise, during my service. I liked it a lot; it is a top bit of equipment! Oh man, that bannock looked "aaaaawwwesome"! "A little patience and an iron skillet" Best one liner, yet! Ha ha ha!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Gordon Miller Even during summer The certain death zone is a bit tricky but i know how to cross it. That also means i know not to get anywhere near it now :) Yeah that old bag is good and it's from 1984 :) Patience and a skillet goes a long way and i could hang my sleeping bag and stuff for ventilation while it was baking. A win-win situation :) Thank you very much for the comment my friend.

[@Toad_Hugger]

Great video Lars! That tree sounding like the predator is pretty spooky... Also hilarious for some odd reason. Watched that movie when I was about 7, creepy stuff.

[@SurvivalRussia]

I could even hear it yesterday at camp :)

[@1crimm]

i always enjoy your videos Lars

[@SurvivalRussia]

+JW's BulletsNBlades Thanx JW :)

[@wayneandrews1933]

As always you do a great job I look for one of the hat like you have but they are 200 hope you have a good spring

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Wayne Andrews Thank you very much Wayne :) Just look up "German M43 reproduction". They should cost way less that 200$.

[@grumpygrumpgrump136]

That looks sooo good. Wish I had been there.

[@ronwilliams9884]

Well, I've seen videos that you did after this one, so it appears you made it out alive. Good job and thanks.

[@punkhiker389]

GOOD to you again . Another great video, looking forward to the knife video ...

[@SurvivalRussia]

+PUNK HIKER Good to see you too :) I hope it will be uploaded during the weekend.

[@666tokarev]

Another great video!!!thank Lars!!

[@hy1802d]

There ya go! Got me watching your video again. Dam guy you do great at this LOL. I just can't help but checking for your new ones .

[@SurvivalRussia]

+hy1802d Thank you very much :) I'm very glad you like the videos friend!

[@logicaredux5205]

Wow! That bannock looked good! You are trekking like a true Russian now Lars! (Slosh, slosh, squish, squish.) Here the conditions in the mountains are the exact opposite. We've had a couple of weeks of dry weather with wind. They have put up the red flag alert for fire danger. If you lit a campfire the state forest rangers would be all over you if they saw the smoke.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Logica Redux Thank you LR . Sadly we could not share it :) We had a bit more snow than last year and it also melted a little faster so no "red flags" around here for a while. Are you allowed to use stoves then?

[@survivalKurse]

Hi Lars evertime a great moment your video have a nice time Guido

[@SurvivalRussia]

+survival-Kurse Hello Guido and thank you very much friend :)

[@neil_castell]

mud and water everywhere .... looks like tough going, keep up the good work,

[@VE3FAL1Fred]

Awesome video Lars as always. I will get to try parts of my MMS system May 7 weekend.

[@dennymohler7264]

Well done liked it a lot

[@johnmoder5306]

Nice combination of camo patterns!

[@ruumple]

Great thecnique.

[@tracycolorado]

Love the spring and summer , except for the mosquito and flies . Got to take the good with the bad

[@SurvivalRussia]

+tracycolorado April and May here are very good months, especially May. No to almost no bugs and the grass and other plants are still not very high :)

[@haggispixi]

This homemade bacon at around 7.22 you mention is almost two years old. I've not heard of a way to preserve bacon for that length of time (8 months max for the way I know). Did you make it and if so would you mind sharing how it is done at some stage? I'm guessing it has a lot to do with your climate but I could be wrong (in Netherlands here so not as extreme). Cheers for another great vid.

[@matthewschultz3601]

looks like a muddy mess. great vid

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Matthew Schultz It is indeed. That ridge line is like an island :) Thank you very much friend.

[@scottnicholson1339]

love the videos you make me laugh I'm just flat addicted. PS I've learned so much

[@vikingmitch4049]

Lars,another great video, NATO bags good for radio operators also.atb Russ.

[@urial57]

awesome vid ,, thanks !

[@SurvivalRussia]

+urial57 Thanks and Have a great weekend :)

[@funkyprepper]

no tash wtf!!! can't believe it lol man i haven't seen an old nato bag in years - looks a good choice with the patrol mss. good idea. awesome bacon bread too - ive seen you in these woods before and it looks like its always swamp land lol just love these overnight videos brother - cool to you smile mate brilliant video

[@SurvivalRussia]

+funkyprepper For the weight and volume the inner bag is actually quite warm. Great piece of kit. My bag is from 1984 and absolutely nothing wrong with it. I used it a bunch :)

[@jornjacobsen3945]

Yes, the old USMC K-bar is a good fighting knife, yet at 18mm it is too long for detail work and these do not hold up if used to continually split wood. It would be good to find something in the 13mm length that is tougher and has a pummel. A compromise is needed if one will only carry one knife. I would tend to carry a knife that is built for a specific purpose, and that means carrying several.

[@Shooter11B]

That Bannock looked amazing Lars! Also, the 2 year old bacon was the perfect addition. It always makes me laugh seeing "expiration" dates on so much of our food here in the US. Based on these, what I call, fake dates, we throw away a stunning amount of food that is still good! People are such sheep. A total waste.

[@marlinpoppyfield]

But he had real "dry" bacon. The bacon we sell in stores in USA is pumped full of water and does not store well. Find an old butcher who makes real bacon or make your own (it is easy).

[@Shooter11B]

martin heldt Yup on the bacon. I get mine form a couple good butchers in my area. But, I was mainly talking about canned foods and dry goods. The arbitrary exp dates are totally bogus.

[@woodlandsnorth]

Wow that's serious mud! Looks like my trip last week. Nice overnighter.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Outdoor Archives Mud, ice and slush is a "great" combo :) Are you from around here? LOL

[@woodlandsnorth]

No, on the other side of the planet, but it all looks the same :) see my last vid.

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

It's always nice to see other countries Wilderness, you need a whole different set of survival/Bushcraft skills to live in Siberia, fare play Lars, keep ya camera rolling mate, your vids are interesting, cheers, atb, Paul.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Neanderthal62 Outdoors This area is not easy at all for many reasons. April and May is very nice months. Let's see what the next trip brings :) Snow should soon be gone and the water table lower.

[@alaskaraftconnection-alask3397]

Lookin' good Lars... much like here in Alaska w/ early spring melt. I really liked you including the sleeping bag w/ arms. I have several most w/ the weather/wind resistant outer shell material and one exactly like you have that I use all the time. As a stand alone not quite warm enough even for summer ventures here, but as a component to kit - just great!!! Nice breakfast Bannock and bacon!!! I use my Silky saws all the time... mostly BigBoy and KatanaBoy with xl teeth --- most excellent!!! An impressive knife you will find exceptional is one I use routinely, and very well designed/made/materials for your kinds of conditions called the Terävä Skrama bush knife from Finland in Carbon steel 80CrV2. The bacon sizzling in the cast-iron has made me hungry... About 8pm Alaska time so I will grill up some Polish sausage tonight from last Fall's Moose River Float Hunt w/ Cataraft and Saiga-12 modified with HK G3 sights. I like your stock on Saiga-12... is it a folder also? Thanks again --- I always enjoy you channel.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Alaska Raft Connection - Alaska-BushRafter Thank you very much and thank you for the comment too :) I have the rubberized outer shell too, but in my "Stick in the Woods" video i was thinking about using the inner shell with the MSS bivvy and green bag. I was pretty cold that night :) I agree the sleeved bag is not that warm but it's not really made for cold climate. During my time in the Danish army it was standard issue. In Germany too. How did you modify you Saiga 12 with G3 sight/sights? I assume it is only the rear sight? Sounds very interesting! Yes my Saiga is a folder. I know about the Skrama and i might just try it out some day :) Again, thank you for your comment :)

[@alaskaraftconnection-alask3397]

+Survival Russia Yes - I most often use my sleeping bag w/ arms non-rubberized version. Occasionally the rubberized one can get light condensation in certain conditions, but nice to have in some situations. I have put one inside the other, however arms get constricted... and I also find the diminishing returns warmth-wise. Love these bags --- I find them highly functional!!! On my Saiga-12 I have cleanly aligned & welded the front G3 sight to top of the gas block. The rear diopter is welded to the dust-cover (I have a good fitting, tight cover). My average groups are palm of hand at 80 meters. My slug of choice is Brenneke Black-Magic 3" Magnum 1 3/8 oz load. Very consistently accurate and an effective Moose hunting set-up. Also nice to have this while dressing Moose out or packing as daylight fades in icy cold mud/silt/beaver dams/muskeg alone along a Salmon spawning river with a high density of Brown Bear tracking up the area splashing about nearby..

[@RickKepple]

I haven't made bannock for years. That definitely looked good!

[@ninjabeatz905]

thanks Lars

[@liquicrum]

I think this is the fifth time I saw Lars make the bannock, and that is the best looking version. You should always use 2 year old bacon.

[@123colinfrost]

Another great video Lars. May I ask what is the badge on the left side of your field cap?

[@SurvivalRussia]

Yes. It's a Danish Army Engineer Regiment badge. I served there.

[@123colinfrost]

Ah yes I recall you were in the Danish army. Nice one.

[@sirjaimerolandruiz]

DAMN....... that looked GREAT{thanks 4 the video} I'm gonna have to make some of that

[@phyllismulkey3778]

great video the bannock and bacon looked good

[@SurvivalRussia]

+phyllis mulkey Thanks Phyllis :)

[@ospididious]

Is the ground just so wet out there that you can't start a forest fire? I notice that you don't really clear the ground at all when you make your fires in most cases. I can understand not worrying in the snow, but I'm hazarding a guess that because its swamp land out there, it won't catch if you leave it unattended.

[@SurvivalRussia]

We have a lot of clay and sand in this specific area. The risk of a root/ground fire here is minimal. However, always take precautions according to the terrain. This forest is always kind of "swampy" :)

[@explosivefreak666]

I so like the wilderniss, reminds me when I was a boy...

[@maxfrost3524]

Nice video man

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Military Max Thank you very much for watching it friend :)

[@williseiner7373]

Great Video ! Good Work !!! Greeting from Brandenburg !

[@oldbaldfatman2766]

Always wondered with so much swamp after the snow melts, how bad are the mosquitoes/flies? Spent some time in Alaska and the no see ems were the worse. And where does all this water flow to? Haven't seen a video of you fishing while doing your walk about.

[@SurvivalRussia]

The mosquito's only start in late May/early June. We have a river running through the forest but it's hard to get to. I only go there in early spring and fall.

[@OregonMike]

At 11:50 the cut wood has very different colors in the center vs the outer half. Is the wood really that wet that wet or is the discoloration due to something else? maybe it is just the camera?

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Oregon Mike It's not wet any longer. It is from a pine which snapped during the fall storms. Then it froze during winter and dried out later. I think that was what caused the discoloration.

[@joesneon]

Awesome bro,another great vid!!!!!!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+joesneon Thanks :) and thank you for watching and commenting friend!

[@Schmidt54]

Is there a particular reason why you always have a rifle with you (shotgun I presume?)? Ist it because of predators like bears or just in case you get hungry? :) Keep the great videos coming!!!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Schmidt54 This time it was in case a bear got hungry and saw me as the next meal :) Bears have just woken up from hibernation/winter sleep so they are hungry and unpredictable. We have wolf too but normally you will not even see them. Then we also have wild domestic dogs in the woods and they are far more a danger than wolves. We have rabies here too so many things to look out for. Thank you very much Herr Schmidt :)

Glad I don't have to cross the zone of certain death to get to my campsite! lol, thanks for the entertainment comrade!

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Paul Buikema I cross it all the time but during summer only the "certain death" zone is really bad. I know where not to go there but when everything is covered in snow and water it's more tricky :)

The Predator Tree haha

[@jornjacobsen3945]

Demonstration of Russian 12 GA slugs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q52ZamN_bqeUaLs Against the grizzly here in this part of Montana, weighing about 320 kilos, I would prefer the Remington 12 ga pure copper sobot round. This duplicates a modern 400grain .45-70 load at nearly 1,800fps. One must have lots of penetration or you'll simply piss it off. Second choice would be the heaviest hard lead slug I could find not designed to expand.

[@SurvivalRussia]

+Jorn Jacobsen I see he uses the "Poleva" slugs. There are different types and they are supposed to shoot far. The Poleva slugs i have tried act strange out of the Saiga :) They are also much lighter than the Brenneke Bronze and Emerald i normally use. The Poleva's are basically sabot rounds. Out my Saiga they were not consistent but maybe a manufacturer issue.

[@jornjacobsen3945]

+Survival Russia I only shared the few videos that use comparable testing methods. All 5 of the Brenneke slugs of different names were similar in performance. They penetrated deeply. One example penetrated more than 17cm of pine. That may be good enough to break a shoulder. Good to know that you are using these. Out of a Saiga, you might get 2-3 shots in before the bear was on you. Unfortunately I need to test the brenneke in my new Remington 870. In my old 870 the Brenneke acted 'strange', but made a cool whizzing sound. I may have use the Federal Truball type. Good to have options. In this area, we have the highest concentration of Grizzily in the lower 48 states. A friend just installed an electric bear fence. They eat chickens and livestock.

[@mikecuddihey2037]
