Solo Bushcraft Overnighter - Natural Shelter

Enjoying a sub-zero night out in the mountains of Canada, I construct a shelter and bed from fir boughs next to a large fire that keeps me warm all night. Thank you for watching and be sure to subscribe!

As a child in Texas, every year around January 1st we would collect all the neighbors discarded Christmas trees and make a fort just like this one. What a fun time and they smelled great also. 😀

[@KuskBushcraft]

Jim Gibbons Yes, these shelters do smell amazing! Sleeping on the Fir bough pillow is really great haha. Thanks for watching, take care.

Really appreciate the silence! Damn, Awesome job on that shelter!

[@KuskBushcraft]

Alan Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the video. Happy trails!

[@robertjantz3728]

You're an amazing teacher kid. I got a place in Northern NY and I've been taking a lot more walks into the woods lately because of your videos. Great stuff.

[@SistahRev]

LOVE your “no talking” videos! Just great skills, interesting food, wonderful scenery, and winsome videography... can’t be beat! Thanks so much!

[@KuskBushcraft]

SistahRev Thank you so much! You're too kind! Take care!

[@fl4shb4ck7]

+1 "just sounds of the nature and tools" format (with simple texts for details) is the best. 👍🏻

[@veteranpatriot4474]

I had to stop this video at the 4 minute mark. To say Absolutely Wonderful Job doesn't seem even close to enough. The way you were able to maximize your work without maximizing your effort like making a Tree Hook to bring pine boughs back to camp. To make a much more Sturdy and substantial Debris Shelter by wedging the the tree into the trunk after prying it apart using it to work with itself ? Brilliant. THIS is why I chose to learn other things about the Bushcraft world that I'm New to. I have been a Survival Expert in Staying Alive, Primitive Shelter Making, Escape and Evasion and the such. But one thing I have Learned is " When you Have a Survivalist or Instructor who claims to know it all, If They are in a SHTF Situation .... It is their Lives that will be CLAIMED ......" I'm always Learning, Thanks for Teaching.

[@NixonBushcraft]

Amazing shelter and beard as well😂 #FearTheBeard

[@KuskBushcraft]

Nixon Bushcraft Haha, fear the beard. Good one. 😂👌

[@ganx0684]

Some of the stuff you do, like creating a way to drag the line branches, I would NEVER think of. So cool to watch and learn. Thanks!

[@VoGusProspecting]

Meatfast, the king of breakfast.

[@CarolinaChrisOutdoors]

Cool... nicely done. I mean the whole video, I like how you did it... great editing. Awesome job! 👍🏻

[@NaturesSolitude]

Great video, and that food looked incredible. Nothing can beat sitting next to a fire, good food, good drink and relaxing. All the best, Brian.

[@제임스본드-t3c]

Is there no wild pigs in the woods? The shelter doesn't have a door. If a wild pig appeared there how would you handle the crisis?

[@tannenherz]

High, i see a very efficient wood-use here. kindly Fiete

[@dunderlarsson44]

What's the point of the logs by the fire? Is it to stop the wind from blowing the smoke inside the shelter? Also, what axe are you using? Take care! 🙂

[@attorneyreel1181]

It reflects the fire's heat from the "off" side of the fire into the opening of the shelter.

[@hakugei77]

i hope you will make more longer video. thanks

[@VikingBushcraftandSurvival]

Awesome shelter ma, really enjoying your videos, subbed my friend. Keep up the great work, cheers friend.

[@adrianhall210]

Now that's a CHUNK of meat. Life's Good. A shelter, a fire, a big chunk of meat and being out there. Good one Ryley.

[@Hawaiian80882]

awesome post....thank-you for sharing your fire....Now I gotta go and get me a steak.

[@michaelbreen5888]

i see the meat and think bears. do u ever get bothered?

[@mdpl.adventure]

The shelter looks so warm. I love fire crackling sound.

[@komarabattinisunil4254]

Your beard is awesome

[@sperrinoutdoors7642]

Nice one buddy try to do one of these each year to stay in and countless other ones with the scouts love it just keeps the skills fresh . Nice job

[@KuskBushcraft]

Sperrin Outdoors Thank you for watching buddy! Happy trails.

[@getgood5814]

This was a great video Ryley, of what I imagine to be the true perspective of your remote and tranquil solo wildland outings! I can easily see myself living out the rest of my days in such a beautiful peaceful expanse. I wouldn't have the guts to go it alone like you do though! With my luck, a few bear would have wanted to share that slab of meat with me! I definitely need to watch a lot more of your videos to gain better knowledge and skill before I entertain any kind of Kuskbushcraft! Keep posting, can't wait to see more.

[@KuskBushcraft]

Get Good Thank you for watching! The bears here in Alberta have all gone into hibernation by now, so no need to worry about them. I appreciate you watching. Happy trails.

[@connar_outdoor]

Great video, I like what you're doing there. Very educational for me and my KZbin video. I personally like it a lot and that's why you deserve a subscription from me!! Many greetings Connar Outdoor

I WANT TO BE JUST LIKE YOU

[@taylortisaac]

Think he’s ever had a vegetable?

[@reyscottm9]

I love how you get the importance of having a good place to sit. I see many videos of people sitting on the ground. C omfort makes all the difference. Even minimal comfort. It's not survival. It's thriving in your environment.

[@KuskBushcraft]

Rey Scott It's the small details that make the difference. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching. Take care!

[@jackvoss5841]

A question? After stacking the logs to burn in your night-time fire while you sleep, why did you lay the day-time fire bed touching up against the stacked wood? It seems the day fire should be a few inches away from the stack, and then be raked up against the stack when you go to bed? That keeps the stacked wood in reserve. I know you have a reason, but I’m not getting it. Thanks. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

[@NorthwoodsRaven]

Love your videos Ryley, just wish they were longer... Just about the time I'm getting into what's going on, and wishing I was eating whatever it is you're cooking, all of a sudden you're pulling up tent stakes and untying the tarp. I could watch this stuff for like, an hour (each video)... and then go out and do the same things myself ;-) Happy trails!

[@Mr75044]

Just subscribed been into Wild outdoor survival since the scouts 50 years ago Got a mate who's into it Big time. Iv put him on to your fantastic channel. Today Were going to put your skills Into action. Respect UK.

[@seikkailujalaidastalaitaan3558]

This kind of camping would be extremely interesting but... At least in Finland there is restrictions what you can do in the forest/property/land which is not yours. For example chopping trees down and setting open fire is forbidden without land owners permission... Even cutting the branches from the living tree is not allowed... 🤔 I apologize that there is maybe some typing errors. ☺️🤔

[@BillySmith-hk6fz]

If you use, evergreen wood, for your fire, when cooking meat, directly, over the fire, you ingest, much creosote, which eventually, will cause problems, in your blood stream, as well as, your nervous system. Use hardwoods only, for direct, meat cooking. Just a word of advice, from a 70-year-old native, of Maine, who, has spent many hours, in the forest, cooking food, on an open campfire.

[@tkunravel3220]

Your videos was so short lol I wanted more

[@ARLAN79195]

Шикідей ұрып жатқан сияқты етті😂

[@BillySmith-hk6fz]

Excellent job, using spruce boughs, for your shelter. Pine, would never work well, in these situations. I know, I've tried it, in Maine, when I was a boy.

[@JBdontcare]

I'm guessing you never run into any wild animals trying to mess with you?

[@jamessawyer9816]

Tells you what the internet has become when I half expected you to turn to the camera and say: ‘this was sponsored by XXXX use code ______ to get a 3 month free trial, today’ Love the videos you make as well, I enjoy a little peace every now and then :D

[@terryflora9268]

[@tonysadventures2799]

Great video and great content. Looking forward to more videos. Does the UCO Put off enough light to be worth bringing?

[@KuskBushcraft]

Tony Hoesing Thanks for watching! I really like my UCO lantern, and I definitely think it's worth bringing. The camera doesn't do it justice at all... it definitely puts off enough light to be able to see around it.

[@tonysadventures2799]

Kusk Bushcraft Thanks for the response. Ordering one ! Keep up the great work

[@Saphire_Throated_Carpenter_Ant]

I think I have that knife, mine is a Frost diving knife. I also do not use it for diving. This means we must have a lot in common, and therefore I feel compelled to subscribe...

Sometimes loneliness and nature are the ones that forget us in our pain and wounds When we lose our dearest, we must be alone and be alone in order for us to rest psychologically.

[@captaininspector8898]

The only thing with that as a shelter is, these kinds of trees catch fire and go up pretty good, especially when dry of course.

[@colinbrown4008]

Great video mate, really liked the pillow idea.

[@KuskBushcraft]

Colin Brown Best smelling pillow ever haha

[@gopackg0770]

cutting bloody meat near your camp? ill be sure to try that! 😃😅

[@Survival_in_the_wild]

And without flint, in a primitive way is it possible? Preferably straight quite primitive, without the tools of civilization, ideally a very primitive way...

Love this stuff. Relaxing big time

[@martinsobkowiak5767]

I watch a bushcrafting video every night before i go to bed. Calms me down and no issue falling asleep. And i am dresming all night of campfires, shelters and good steaks...

[@OKBushcraft]

Ive had my beard for over 28 years without shaving. It has never looked as good as yours. The wife never has liked it. 😒 The shelter looks pretty good too.

[@KuskBushcraft]

I loved this. I was sick last year and stuck inside, but all better now and ready to get outdoors! What kind of clothing, including your gloves, are you using?

[@KuskBushcraft]

Reviews by Rob Glad to hear you're in good health and back to being in the outdoors. Thanks for watching! My clothing isn't anything too special. A wool sweater, wool fingerless gloves, and a pair of nylon pants for wind & moisture protection. Take care and happy trails!
