Flood in the dugout. I can't go inside. I'm pumping out the water. Cooking over fire.

#bushcraft #dugout #undergroundshelter
Hello everyone, my name is Alexey, I live in Russia in the city of Yekaterinburg. My four-legged friend's name is Pyosel. To make my dog’s name clearer to you, in English it sounds something like “Doggie”
Today I came to the forest to see the condition of my dugout. It's cloudy and raining outside. It snowed a few days ago. Spring this season is not ordinary.
When I opened the doors of the dugout, I was surprised and a little upset. There is a lot of water inside. Most likely this happened due to the fact that there was a lot of snow this season, and the second reason for this was that I did not clear the snow from the dugout, as was the case last year. The snow on the roof melted and water flowed inside.
I took a shovel to try to open the door and measure the depth of the water. I can't even get closer to the doors and see what's going on inside the room. I'll be back here tomorrow with all the necessary equipment.
A few days later I came to the dugout again, but without the dog. I have a lot of things with me, so I decided that I would be alone. I took with me a drain pump for dirty water, a hose and a battery.
I again tried to get inside the dugout, but I didn’t succeed. It seems to me that something inside is holding the door and preventing me from opening the door. After the pump pumped out a certain amount of water from the dugout, I tried to go inside again, I think I understood what was going on. The floor boards have risen up and are preventing the door from being opened. Using a shovel, I pressed on these boards and was able to go inside the dugout.
It's a mess inside, everything is floating and it's very cold. My feet are cold, the water is also very cold.
In winter, someone came to my dugout and left a soft toy as a gift, as well as cookies on top so that the rodents would not eat them. I have to go outside to stay warm and stay warm. It's good that I have hot tea.
I plan to light a fire and cook some food while the pump pumps out the water. Remember, I made an oven underground, today I will cook in this oven. Unfortunately, when I opened the underground oven, I saw that there was also water inside. Oh, what a pity. You will have to light a fire and cook over a fire.
But first you need to clear the area for the fire from dry leaves and grass. I also poured water on the ground around the fire to prevent a forest fire.
For dinner I have ground beef, vegetables and bread. I wanted to cook a more complex dish, but I changed my mind. I spread the sauce on the bread, then put all the ingredients, cover with a second piece of bread, put tomato and herbs on top. It turned out very tasty.
The pump stopped pumping water due to low water level, I put the pump in the drainage hole that I dug when building the dugout, the water accumulates at the lowest point.
Sometimes the pump stops pumping water because the sensor falls to the ground, this pump is designed so that it should only work when the sensor is above the pump, I secure the sensor manually so that the pump does not stop working.
After the water was removed from the room, I decided to tidy up a little. Next time I will come here and light a fire inside the stove so that the moisture that remains inside the wood will evaporate and mold will not eat my dugout.
Thanks for watching and see you next time!

[@slamjackfhuckery4321]

When Alexy build the dugout, I already knew it would flood. I just hoped I would be wrong. Dugout should be built on higher ground.

[@bullpen4109]

I'm sure that that happens to others and they just don't show it. Kudos to Alexy. Unfortunately, now he has an elevated risk for mold. And this will happen again unless he digs a channel from the lowest point below his floor out horizontal, or just downward sloped until he hits the side of a hill. Put a 4" black slotted ABS pipe in it, cover it with lots of small rock, put a barrier over it to keep the dirt out, then fill it over with dirt.

[@jeremiahmiller6431]

Higher ground won't help. A dugout is essentially a hole in the ground, and holes in the ground get filled with water one way or another. The only solution is to build on a hillside and include drains.

[@lostin.psychosis7080]

Or a battery opperated bilge pump with a solar charger 😊​@@bullpen4109

[@BirdManAdventures]

Or on a slope works to as natural drainage

[@justsomeguy9700]

Higher ground with an auto sump and solar battery bank would work perfect.

[@BEV323]

Oh no Alexey, I am so sorry this happened! All that hard work you put in to building all this, it has GOT to be devastating to come in and see that. You will have to be very careful though because now you will be dealing with mold. That black mold is the worse! It will attack your lungs and make you so sick. Please wear a mask when entering the cabin, you may not notice the mold at first, so please be careful!

[@jenkelly4827]

Sorry to see the disaster that struck your dugout. I hope you can repair it, but if not you can spend your time focused on your new cabin build. Good luck Alexey. Give love to Pyosel.

Absolutely commendable! Despite facing the challenges of a flood in the dugout, your resilience shines through as you take action to pump out the water and adapt by cooking over fire. Your ability to remain calm and resourceful in the face of adversity is truly inspiring. It's a testament to your determination and strength of character. Your actions not only ensure your safety but also demonstrate your ability to find solutions and persevere through difficult circumstances. Keep up the amazing work, and may you stay safe and resilient in the face of any challenge! And I am Floating Village Life.

Remove all cloth and other fibrous items, including the stuffing between the logs. You will need to replace these items to prevent black mold. Spray down the walls floor and ceiling with a mold repellent. It was good to see you again. Peace and safe blessings.

I guess that is the main problem with these underground cabins.They can't stand heavy rain. Drainage of the water is the first issue. Drying all the wood and preventing it from rotting is the greater challenge. And how can you prevent the next flooding?

[@burgertblom2733]

Most important now is to get the residual moisture out ASAP - set up that oven and crank it up to max so that the moisture can evaporate out of the cabin. Otherwise, it will go into the wood and then the whole structure will be in jeopardy. Crank it up, heat it to MAX, keep the doors open so there is a positive flow of heat to remove the water vapor. I hold thumbs !

[@dannydenham8141]

You will overcome this problem. A large sheet of plastic or two covering the Dugout and area surrounding it and covered with at least 30cm of soil could possibly keep water from seeping down by diverting it away. You could put the plastic and 10 cm of soil then more plastic and soil and then another plastic an soil, and a better sealed entryway may possibly help. Drying the interior out will be time consuming, heat up the inside and keep it hot for days. Also, dig a sump hole and put in a solar powered pump to siphon out water. You have learned from this experience, the next dugout will have much better water proofing and drainage. Shelves to keep everything off the floor. And the next dugout, stack rocks up for a foundation wall before starting the timber build. Moisture is your enemy.
