Survival On The Ground - An Expert Opinion From 10c to $400 - Joe Price Bushcraft Skills

[@smpk9667]

I have a few things to say about reindeer skins. Its a byproduct of meat production so buying them is saving them from going to waste, they are not valuable enough for someone to butcher a reindeer for just the skin. They float so you could roll it up and help you float in emergency. The skins that are treated and have a white skinside look nice and are very soft but not very water resistant at all. The good water resistant are the ones that are just nailed to a wall or a frame, and then left to air dry, you can easily distinguish them by the untreated skinside that will make crinkle sound when bended. The untreated skins ontop of a bed made of soft green branches is the best sleep i have ever experienced. You can turn them into leather when you have worn them out and the water resistance is weakened. Also i have never been cold when sleeping on reindeer skin, and i have slept on them my whole life when outside. The biggest downside is the bulk when rolled up.

Here from the Corporals Corner! Glad to be here, brother.

I confess, i often put the speed up on KZbin videos so i can consume more in less real time but not with you Joe, you're already speaking at my optimum consumption speed 😂😂

[@inforestsandlands]

@@jinxjones5497 🤣🤣 I get a time limit in some videos. And I refuse to skip info haha

[@ComdyCutsEdits]

I was thinking too much coffee, lol

[@rrock7497]

Corporals corner sends you love and happy holidays

[@MISANTHROPE1964]

😂As a young attorney, I represented a number of union workers in some very small, rural communities. On more than a few occasions, the hotel accommodations in these areas were not the most hygienic. A sleeping bag liner, inflatable pillow, travel towel and good pair of shower shoes became a staple in my overnight kit.

[@inforestsandlands]

I used to work on the power lines so I had the same problem. Never thought of shower shoes haha. That would have saved me many a pair of socks

[@papiboy6290]

A warm Hello! from Corporals Corner and myself. Keep on the good work!

Me too cheers

[@garytredwell5649]

Me too!

[@TheMegaMega99]

I made a ground sheet with an old surplus wool blanket and a couple yards of oilskin fabric. One of my favorite pieces of kit. It's amazing how much something like that can insulate you from the earth. Nice video!!

[@inforestsandlands]

That sounds awesome. I had my wool blankets made into anoraks. I might some more to make some ground cloths. Thanks for the idea

[@ComdyCutsEdits]

There are so many ways to survive, thanks. Shawn Kelly said 👋

[@johnbland1422]

The closed foam self inflating pad if you have the room . Store it hanging in a closet with the valve open . The loft/ cells will not be as compressed and will be much more comfortable.

[@inforestsandlands]

A great tip !

[@SirMoribund]

Corporals Corner recommended your channel. Looking forward to more of your content. 07

Hi there, been sent here to your channel by Corporal’s Corner!

[@journeyman7189]

Great breakdown Joe. I like a ground sheet, closed cell foam pad and layer it with other mats as temperature dictates. Also carry a couple drum liners just in case. Nate

Not even the bony-ist fingered nun, I swear I keep coming for survival tips and keep leaving with absolute bangers of quips

[@inforestsandlands]

ha ! its win win. you can take the man off the construction site but you cant take the construction site out of the man

[@jeffclark8555]

I’m in the U.S. and I have a couple of those German tarps. They’re great! Btw, Corporals Corner clued me in about your page.

[@inforestsandlands]

Thanks for stopping by , brother. And agreed I am surprised they are not more popular with how cheap and robust they are. Might ask what the going rate for them is Stateside?

[@jeffclark8555]

@ I’m located in Pennsylvania. I first bought the two I have I first bought 2 on sale for around $20.00 for 2. U.S. I see from the same surplus place they are up to $19.95 each. As much as I have used them and how durable they are, I would consider $19.95 as a good price.

[@robinsvensson7138]

Great video! Thank you =)

[@lisamchutchison6572]

Hello. I'm most of the way through watching and we just switched over to the sleeping mat. I just thought that if you are talking about $ you should post an indicative price on the subsequent items. I am enjoying the info very much.

[@inforestsandlands]

@lisamchutchison6572 hey 👋. I did want to do that, but they vary so much in price depending on whether it is a European brand being sold in America or vice versa. I averaged em out and left the links to the average prices in the description of the video. Thank you for the kind words, and if there is any content you would like to see in the future, let us know. Enjoy the journey 📸🌄🌳🌲🌴

[@davef5916]

great run down! have you ever used the carinthia liner in summer instead of a sleeping bag? Wondering what temps it might work down to if so.

[@inforestsandlands]

@davef5916 hey 🤜🤛 I use it in my.summer sleeping bags, but I have never used it as a stand-alone piece of sleeping equipment. If I do, it's mostly as a Scarf or something to keep the wind off my legs around the fire. That's not say it wouldn't work. I just run cold.

[@markgrubbs1920]

[@fubufb420]

Great tip about the Reindeer hide!🦌 Also wrap your pad inside instead of hanging it outside!! Definitely a new sub.🎉🎉 Id rather sleep on the ground, more stealthy that way!! Also my tiny camp doesn't have a floor either!😂😂 I'm looking for ways to insulate the "floor"😂 Plastic and other insulators will be a good solution...🎉

[@inforestsandlands]

Awesome ! glad you liked the tips. I prefer sleeping on the ground because I am shaped like a barrel and when I sleep in hammocks and the such I always wake up so sore.
