A Day In My Life | Colorado/Utah Border Quest For Water

Just another Day In My Life when roaming around the regions between Colorado and Utah. A good rock shelter made the perfect home my dog Finn and I. I would like to share that this is just a day...a single 24 hours out of three, four or even ten days. I say this because I'm happy to share a single day or even more, but the rest belong to just me.
Thanks a million for watching, liking and sharing my videos. I appreciate the support you all have given this channel! Your time, interests and feedback are important to me. I really want to say thanks to each and every person who likes, subscribes and shares my videos. Much respect!

[@primalbushcraft3540]

Not that I doubt your skills at all just wondering is the cloth smog enough to filter out the water so it is drinkable?

[@DonnyDustsPaleoTracks]

Not sure. I wasn’t worried too much about bacteria. The cloth was to just make it less silty. I’ve had no issues. However, I’ve been drinking water from questionable sources for some time. It was my only option next to the snow my dog drank.

great vid man, but can you make like a full day in your life i wanna see like how long you spend in your house, how long you spend editing, how long you spend outside, go to the store,... im just interested. It would be appriciated. Also something i am curious about, are you allowed to hunt animals to eat in america? Because here in belgium you would be doing something illigal.

[@davisstellman]

Yes, you can hunt animals to eat in America, but there are regulations on how you do it or what you hunt for at certain times of the year. It's encouraged to eat what you hunt

​@@DonnyDustsPaleoTracksthat's very interesting coming from a native English speaker. I'm European myself and I'd faster learn Japanese than polish. Polish people are our brothers in spirit but the language is completely alien. So having a native English speaker speak more polish than I, a neighbor is pretty impressive.

[@davisstellman]

I love your channel man I had some questions for you. When you bowhunt larger game do you still try to keep it primative/ hunt without camo or do you use modern gear? Also would love to see a video on how you made that poncho it is awesome! Love your content keep it up man!

[@davisstellman]

@Survivalnerd that is super helpful to know, I've never hunted but it sure looks interesting. For now I'm trying to master bowfishing with my recurve haha one step at a time

[@davisstellman]

@Survivalnerd of course you're incredibly knowledgeable. I've shot traditional for 12 years but have never taken game. Just shooting the plastic waterbottles 2 weeks ago was fun so I can't wait to try to go for carp and gar out in Texas

10:44 yeah I already understand the universe. How do I address you again master?

[@kaydavis6752]

Interesting that your dead fall went off but caught nothing. They are hard to rig for a fast, heavy drop and the prey can't always be determined. Fashioned a live trap one time and caught a rat that aimed some very colourful language towards me. Currently trying to outwit a rat/rats that's visiting and avoiding several traps I've set up. It will get too cocky and trip a trap eventually.

[@liljkrz]

Have you ever had problems drinking water that way?

[@DonnyDustsPaleoTracks]

Not really. It happens, but not to often. When I can…snow melt and ice are good options.

[@dispatch444]

I just happened to notice as you were clearing a spot for your fire the sand looked like it had some moisture to it the deeper you got. I know sand can be somewhat of a natural filter. With that particular spot at the base of that rock formation and in a dry creek bed. If you were to dig down far enough and were able to let water slowly seep through the sand and fill the hole would it be safe to drink? Hypothetically of course. Love the content btw

[@DonnyDustsPaleoTracks]

@@dispatch444 thanks for watching. At that time snow was still available in shaded areas and the moisture was from the snow melt trapped between the sand stone bed rock and loose sand above it. It would be best to purify it. However in a pinch with no other options I would drink it.

[@AB-kg6rk]

lots of hanta virus spreading rodents up there.

[@lancepittman5066]

You did well but why don't you just melt the snow and ice with the fire? You can share the water with your dog. Also you're not using your stone knife
