BIG Annual Mens Winter Camp Highlights
This is this winter's version of an annual Alaskan winter men's campout that has been going on for several decades. I camped out for 4 days at this campout and then Connie went back in to the same location and her and I camped out another 3 days. Seven great days of winter camping. I didn't want it to end. The video is highlights of those two campouts.

    Can the tin have holes in the bottom as well or only in the top?

  • @Kinetic.44
    @Kinetic.44 13 годин тому

    Epoxy or solder some wire legs to the back of the tin, bent like giant paperclips for storage. Doing this with an emergency mylar bivvie sack would also be very effective. Really this is a old school ponch trick. A cardboard spiral makes for a giant type of wick if you need to heat things up inna hurry too. Also if you use tallow instead of wax it has more uses.

    I got to get me a hat like yours, thank you for the video. Question. Can you mix it with coffee and add sugar and creamer, just like with regular coffee? I'm kinda coffeeholic heheh. Thumbs up.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival 17 годин тому

      I have never tried mixing it with coffee so I just don't realistically know what that would be like. I too very much enjoy coffee and I drink it black so that I can taste the coffee. I purposely select beans, roasters and methods of brewing for a flavor that I enjoy. So I am reluctant to add anything to my coffee such as this Dandelion root coffee. However feel free to experiment and try it. If you don't like it you can always throw the remaining out if you so desire.

    I dont hunt or go bush like i have done most of my life but ive had expert training in fire lighting started off at five yrs old and have all ways liked a good fire and ive put out a fire in a campervan . Have followed Connie. and Lonnie for a longtime and have found them full of great advice and even at 78 yrs old i find that there are new things to learn so listen up and try out all the ideas they put forward practice with small fires on a cold and wet day with only what you can find and see how that works .

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival 12 днів тому

      This firelay would not be the best in rainy conditions since it is designed to burn slowly over a large area. A smaller hotter burning fire would handle rain and snow better. However, any fire can be covered to protect them from precipitation if that is a concern.

      I have used an external bipod on several occasions for my tipi type tents and it does work well. However the single adjustable inner pole is faster to set up. The inside center pole also provides a place to hang stuff such as a light source or clothing items that need to dry out. There are advantages to both methods of shelter support.

    For some reason I knew you road I started at 15 years old my girlfriend Gretchen her Dad bill had 4 cr250 motocross motorcycles I lived in canyon county she and her family lived in Sugus they would take us riding in Gorman near lake castaic . Road until my last year at CSUN IN 2016 I was 46 years old now I’m going on 56 years old on 7/18/1968 I miss riding a lot it’s like peace of mind what kind of motorcycle do you ride you look like a Harley Davidson I love what Harley Davidson means it America a strong motorcycle just I used to ride my motorcycle from Newberry park to flagstaff Arizona I would do with clear weather no wind no rain or snow I would do on my GSXR1100Suzuki I would push 165 miles per hour on the i40 highway I loved speed the faster the better but I would only ride like that with no one around I always road on road trips by myself because when I rode with other people police would come I had 21 tickets at one time until I had five police officers chessing me on the 101 fwy I didn’t even know they were behind me I would always speed . The motercycle police officer was shaking pointing his gun at me I told him I have cerebral palsy and he is shaking more than me and when his commander got there I told him that I have Cerebral palsy and his officer is pointing a gun at me shaking more than I do, he asked me what size my motorcycle was I told him it was a GSXR1100 Suzuki 1987 and he started laughing and told me to sit in the front sit of his police car and took me to my house in Newberry park . Life has changed police officers were a lot more personal I feel. I always am honest with them so they would treat me the way I treated them. I had my motercycle impounded boo and a 1400.00 speeding Ticket so I did 14 days in jail to pay the fine because every time I would get a speeding ticket I would go in at 11pm and be out by 2am the next morning for two hundred dollar ticket. I was 19 years old and I would do concrete and other construction work I would find in day time and at night I would work for huges market bagging groceries so I would bag the judges groceries and he told me in court how could he stop me from speeding so I would not get scraped up off the fwy so he gave me that giant speeding ticket. I miss riding. Do you still ride and what kind of motercycle do you ride

      I had not rode motorcycle for perhaps forty years. From before getting married up until three years ago. I had quite a few motorcycles when I was a kid and young adult. I would LOVE to be riding a Harley but unfortunately they cost quite a bit of money. I am riding a Himalayan by Royal Enfield now. It is a 411cc dual sport motorcycle. I just went for about a hundred and fourty mile ride yesterday. I love the bike but it's too little for my needs. I would love to once again have a 1000cc plus street bike, preferably a Harley. I was never much into speed though I did get caught and ticketed by the cops for speeding several times on my motorcycles. I was and am more into just cruising and going places.
