      I remember watching a video of a Swedish guy hiking and he filmed as a bear started following him up the mountain. They cannot carry guns over there (sadly), so the next best thing would've been for him to carve two spears from tree logs or sticks (before encountering the bear, obviously) and use the blunt ends as walking sticks. If a bear comes into your camp, you have axe and knife, no gun (imagining), now what? All that time the person sat there looking at the fire in their comfortable complacency, they could've carved 3-4 spears from tree logs or sticks. Have a few extra to launch at the threat, and 2 of them to dual wield for CQB. Selfdefense is layered, not to be reliant on only 1 or 2 items. Use our weapons to create more weapons. I'm sure you already knew this, and would be cool to see you show it in video. ☺️

    Many of these skills apply anywhere in the world. We live in the tropics where warm or hot weather and high humidity are the norm. A bit over 100 klicks north of our home base, there is a mountainous area. Trust me, it can get frosty up there. We have never seen snow but frost will suck the heat from your body. Thank you for yet another superior teaching video.

    We use to make those hobo meals back in the 60's, easy peasy. Pull them out of the cooler ( PRE MADE AT HOME ) an right on the fire, never knew what would be in them tho, could be chicken, beef, fish, or some sort of sausage, with veggies. Knocked it out of the park with this vid Andy, thx for the vid

    Loved the video. 👍👍
    A note on the Sasquatch bed. Like sleeping bag ratings, that 4" (compressed) is a "survival" rating. For a truly comfortable bed, increase material depth 2-3x. You can do this with all grass, or if material is in short supply, use boughs, etc, for the bottom layer. My favorite way to sleep in the woods!
    I also make my bottom two logs longer on my long fire for a convenient cooking platform.

    • @michaelmcewan2364
      @michaelmcewan2364 Před 5 měsíci +2

      If there is no grass, will leaves and duff work similarly or do you need to gather more material?

    • @carrdoug99
      @carrdoug99 Před 5 měsíci +2

      @michaelmcewan2364 leaves will work, but you'll want to collect more (they compress more). Leaves will tend to be wetter, too. If you're in an area with a lot of ferns, those work great. Regarding compression, on day two, you'll probably want to add your top cover to the base and gather more grass for the top layer (you're generally fine from there on).

    A good video and that meal looked delicious, people that hasn’t had a deer heart, don’t know what their missing. Been eating them for 50 years with homemade Brown gravy and rice 🤤 thanks for this video it made me hungry

    • @peterbogart4531
      @peterbogart4531 Před 5 měsíci

      In some Midwestern and Western farm country various stands of field corn can be found unharvested all winter. The ear corn can be shucked, shelled, and ground to supply a generous supply of corn meal. The corn meal can be combined with deer tallow to help keep dogs strong and healthy. Expert utilization of rabbit can provide a further fully nutritious meat supply. Starving on a diet of rabbit can thus supposedly not be inevitable.

      Be Careful With Aluminum Foil! It Can Be Very Toxic, Causing Memory Damage, Other Neurological Issues, Even Death, Etc! Some Aluminum Cookware Can Be An Issue Depending On Mfg's Quality Controls And Testing!
      Large Comercial Or Industrial Grade Aluminum Pots For Restaurants Are Of Higher Quality, For Soup Prep-Cook Kitchens Aren't As Much A Conceren, Just Be Aware! 😎

    Any point in using the foil if you have the cook pot set? Just thinking about the amount of aluminium that ends up in the meal (not an issue in survival situation, but perhaps an issue of just bushcrafting)

    • @RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft
      @RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft  Před 5 měsíci +4

      Definitely use the bush pot if it's available; totally agree. The foil is just a technique since it's super easy to carry and use.

    Sir, T Y again. Another Power Point Competition Grand Slam. Such good effort & product! Dog mushers back in the day would often rely on cornmeal & "dog tallow" to nourish the dogs. Feeding moose meat to dogs has long been illegal in Alaska, but moose tallow surely is legal? I had to put down a couple of road hit moose in Yukon, but did not get to see the dressings-out salvage to see how much fat they carried. Lucky to find your neighbor's deer heart, so you didn't have to eat that neighbor. Hunger may be the best sauce, but subfreezing temps raise the bar. Some kind of thin glove is desirable to wear inside mitts to keep skin from freezing when exposed. Bare hands in leather chopper mitts are sometimes enough for working.

    Clean your knife and avoid food poisoning, top tip. How do you clean the lid after tallow extraction.
