  • In a wild forest on the edge of a ravine, I found the perfect place to build a bushcraft-shelter. In this forest, there are a lot of wind-fallen trees, many of which hung when they fell. I cut the dead trees into logs and wedged them between the trunks of living pines. The roof was made of the bark of fallen oaks, and I got the stones for the fireplace from the bottom of a ravine. It turned out to be a beautiful hut where you can cook food on the fire and keep it warm.

      When I went to to Northern Michigan for deer camp, I'll bet I didn't say 10 words in 3 days. On day 4 I met up with some friends camp site, but even that was a low key evening.
      I love being outside and away from people and the Internet. I crave it when it's been a couple months and I haven't gotten away for a weekend.

    This reminds me of sleeping in my bungalow at -12 degrees, firing the oven with wood I had to pick up at midnight outside from behind the bungalow. The frozen night with no wind is not cold at all. The smell of the burning wood, the sound of the fire and the peace, but also the lowered level of comfort gives a feeling from stone-ages, it awakens long forgotten instincts. It's perfect to come down to earth and forget money and big cars.

    This is very similar to what the pioneers built when first homesteading. Something that you could put up quickly without nails or wooden pegs.

    Great idea for up here in the PNW. Lots of forest up here with young timber. And fresh cedar bark was used by Native Salish for many things, including roofs. Those trees will grow outward and the bark will squish out around and into those side cracks. This is a great design for a few seasons of camping, at least.

    It'd be kind of neat if you built a chain of these. Like now that this is built, you could make a couple trips just to stock it with supplies so you can travel lighter later on, covering ground faster and with less fatigue. Then use it as a base camp to build progressively more and more of these farther in any time you find another spot far enough away to be worth it. Even if you had to do some last minute patching, having a structure 95% intact next time you're around means you can cover more ground a lot more quickly. You'd have your own little network of mini-hideouts if you ever I dunno need to go on the run or whatever.

      At the end, you point out the tactical importance of this network. To do this, I choose the most remote places where people hardly ever show up. Now I'm working on another such vault, which will be a complete contradiction to this one.

    I always like your point that you use dry trees to make a house. And we should always take from nature as much as we need, we should learn this from you. keep going stronger 👌👌❤

    This guy is smarter than the average bear to use trees that already form rough corners. Why don't more guys do this? I've watch a lot of vids on this subject, and few have figured this out.

      More people dont so this because its a terrible idea for several reasons. Most obvious and foremost being that trees sway in the wind, and that alone would destroy this childs fort in under a day.

    That is a brilliant video! It's a method I've thought about for some time, but wasn't sure if it would work. I guess the big trick is to find trees in more or less the right configuration, but I think it allows one to become creative as well. The idea of using bark like that for the roof is a very good idea. How would it hold out in very high winds though? Could one supplement it by laying a big, thick tarp over the top and tie it down?

      Better yet, put tarp on first then bark to wt. it down. Snow load is heavy metal insurance. 😊

      Do you really? Start today, move out into the country and find a place that is not owned by someone and do away with all your money. You do have the tools, wagon and horse don't you? Throw away the phone but then you will die. Notice the location of the place is not defined. You can't just go and build something on private land, that includes national or state forests Have fun finding someplace to build.

      @garyfinger294 lol I hear whatcha saying and I'm completely aware that it's not an easy way of life. Especially at first I'm assuming. Nobody said it would be easy. But I have spot to build on. And water is accessible. Adding solar panels, a wood heater/stove, hot and cold water, and a few other minor things to make it comfortable, and it could be a good life. Grow a garden, live off the land as much as I can. Most of all be free and away from paying rent or mortgage. Doesn't seem bad to me. But it's something you gotta want. And with that getting it set up is probably a great reward in itself. This world and country is getting crazier and crazier and to be able to get away from the rat race and the violence and crime and the pressure to work just to survive is worth the effort it takes to get a successful homestead going.

      @@1peter2N9 most animal's instinct, especially in areas still near towns, have adapted to not want to interact with humans. Think about it, you hunt a human and even just injure it, now you have a bunch of humans making it so that your genes dont get passed down. The ones that survive are the ones that avoid humans. (Exceptions come in with creatures that havent had to deal with humans/or are too big for humans to be a threat. Northern bears, moose, etc. Yet those are omnivores/herbivores that would rather hunt something else)
