Got my 7yr old to watch with me. He has decided “we need to do that!” Mission accomplished. Salute to you Corporal
I'm in western Iowa if you guys needed a place to explore, our family farm is 800 acres (with some nice hardwood timbers) ranging from beginner to moderately tough. Always good to get young ones in the country
@@tomburbridge1114 That is so kind of you. I hope they take up your generous offer.
@@tomburbridge1114 that's very generous of you . Great of you to show encouragement for the young one to get out and enjoy nature meaning real life lol cheers
Watching your videos makes me think that my idea to create an auxiliary shelter kit is even more important than ever. I am reminded that homeless people are always desperate for good shelter to stay safe, dry and warm on cold nights and in the winter. Data supports the fact that most people lost in the woods, desert, or tropics often die from exposure before starvation or other hazards. You did so much with so little. Small kit for maximum comfort. This is one of your best projects.
You are the most professionell and clean Bushcrafter on YT. Like your videos
I highly agree. He simplifies it and makes it easy.
Bushcraft survival? No. You teach Bushcraft thriving! When you say OUTSTANDING, I'm in total agreement. Immediate thumbs up!
It is also a great idea to sweep all the debris from your site before setting up. This clears out some creepy crawlies and prevents others from entering your area because they fear leaving the concealment of leaves and sticks.
I live in Texas and all I can think of when I see people using dead leaves is chiggers, fireants and ticks, oh my!
I love chiggers 🦗
Same for Louisiana, except you can add in every other insect/pest you can think plus poison ivy and any other poison whatever you can think of. LOL!
Chiggers and other critters have a hard time getting thru the heavy gage plastic of the 55gl trash bags. That is also why you let them rest outside your bed sight for a few hours to let them leave.
@@-JackVenom Now, now son. Never say chiggers. Say cheegros.
I AM KURGAN CRACK ME UP!!!! cant believe i never heard that joke before..oh man you got me
My god, your tips are worth noting. You have some of the best survival advice on the Internet. I absolutely love when you go out in the field and show us how it's done.
I always liked packing in Dinty Moore Beef Stew or Chicken and Dumplings. Good camp chow!
Yeah, I'm a Dinty Moore guy also.
Me too [Dinty Moore beef stew]! You can't beat it!
Don't forget corned beef hash for breakfast!
In the Great Lake region, springtime is notorious for ticks. If you treat the cloth on the ground , your clothes & your blanket with permethrin , you lessen the chance of becoming a blood donor. Just my $.02 . Outstanding video. Keep up the good work.
So neat and tidy...and simple...and cozy. You are really innovative tucking wood behind your knee to stabilize it, as well as all the simple gadgets you made from paracord. Nothing wrong with a few simple knots as we see here!
Words of caution, don't build that reflectorwall out of tarwood or otherwise dry material. Speaking from personal experience.
A pineneedle shelter burns real good.
@bali song You'll be surprised how stupid one get when deprived of food, sleep and been freezing arse for a week.
People die from stupid decisions made during such conditions.
I love this shelter and the spaghetti O's . Did you set that lean two by compass?
@@DFox-ud3gx That was basically a shelter for five people with an reflector wall on the other side. Everything was built from tree branches and wood. Damn near started a forest fire.
What is tarwood? Never heard of it.
@@CyanLink probably goes by a different name since I used a direct translation from swedish. Basically it is dried wood that has a lot of tar stored up inside it. I think I heard some american use the word fatwood to describe it.
It burns very well.
Love going back to the older videos. Anticipation for Sundays is crazy. 🤣
Cpl Kelly I sincerely appreciate all the work you put into your videos. They are ALWAYS informative and educational. I have been following you for several years and without a doubt your videos get better and better. THANK YOU for a job well done!
OUTSTANDING!! All of your work is museum quality.
Great channel and videos. Thank you for your service to our country!
That's a great rake you have there made from a branch and the shelter is much more roomy and secure.
Oh man, hearing a battle hardened Marine saying "Uh oh, spaghettios" in a sing-songy manner cracked me up! Loved the video Cpl, got me thinking about how I can survive minimally as well.
Lmao!!
Eviktion, I was thinking the same exact thing! It was so unexpected, I just loved it.
He’s to young for Vietnam, with C rations. Must still be a kid at heart. Semper Fi Cpl.
@@johningle8439 Don't know his age, but I remember Campbell's "Uh-Oh, Spaghettios" jingle from the late 1960's, early 1970's...
Leonard Urban I remember eating C rations with a date of 1956 - 1958 during my first tour in 1967.
Great tip on cooking out food cans. I’ve always done the same to reduce the probability of wildlife being drawn to camp. Awesome video, Corporal.
Being a Veteran myself, I enjoy watching your videos and love that you don't over narrate. Your videos are concise and well done. Thank you for sharing this vital knowledge.
I thought you might have done wall C when I first read about this new video - which is very cool - but the carry techniques for the fire wood, the fire wood processing and the ‘burnout’ idea for the can are new ways to apply the old Boy Scout resourcefulness; so as always, outstanding!
Thanks! Keep it smooth.
Excellent video. Setup was simple and well thought out. Explanations were clear, and informative. One of the best improvised shelters I have seen on CZcams. The master of minimal gear.
I love it when your old school videos pop up on my suggest to watch list. I consider them the standard by which all other CZcamsrs are judged. Practical, informative, and replicable.
Also burning the food and plastic out of the can will give a second container to boil water/cook ect.
That was my thought as well... Especially going with the redundancy thought process
I've had to do this before when a friend of mine decided that he wanted to go camping with me at the last min and I only had the one container to boil/cook with Worked out great.
Enamel lining.
Why not cook in the opened food can?
@@tanyab7318 cans are lined internally with plastic otherwise the food would eat away/rust/destroy the steel can. Gotta get rid of the plastic before cooking with the can otherwise you're boiling/melting plastic straight into your food/water.
I wondered at first why you tossed the can in the fire. Never thought about animals or bugs made great sense to burn it out . great video thx
Never had any interest in camping outside, came across your channel and now I'm entrenched with the idea of trying this and bushcraft out thank you!
Great Video. My youngest boy is at me to build this on our next outing.
He was also delighted to see a grown up enjoying some spaghetti o's.
The firewood trick between the twin trees is awesome and, you're right, takes much less energy than sawing. It's a clever way to get fast pieces in the rain, too, when you've got to get a fire going quickly. Thanks for the great vids!
I really appreciate the time you put into making these informative videos. Theres so much knowledge in each one, and I think its awesome how you include the core info/helpful tips in every video (Like the plumbers vise).
Ive got the motivation to go out and start building my own little bushcraft camp, and for now Ill start with a larger version of this shelter, and go from there.
I bought six Mora Knives from your page ten days ago, practiced Plow point, A frame tarp shelters, then used Mora 511, Ka-Bar, to process wood and ferro rod to get fire started, last grilled up some burgers.
My 9 year old grandson had a blast learning. Thanks for the inspiration Semper Fi
Great video C. Kelly. Many folks don't bushcraft alone. Can you do a video for when a man takes his wife out to the bush. What is different? How to make a two sleeper shelter? Just a suggestion.
I was just thinking that same thing. How to set up a two person tarp camp for more than a night? How about it Corporal?
Just thinking that same thing.
How would you set that up Corporal?
Wow! Fantastic video! You looked like you were in your element and having a blast. I loved the fire wood carriers. The shelter was great as well. On my next outing I’m going to try this. It would make a wonderfully comfortable “Spike Camp” when I’m elk hunting this fall instead of just a bivy sack. A little more work but well worth it I’m certain. Thanks and again GREAT VID MARINE!
Is bivy short for bivouac (Don't know how that's spelled. Maybe that's why people just say bivy?)
mawmawvee - I was referring to a bivy sack. A light weight shelter that goes over your sleeping bag. Not a bivouac.
Thanks for letting me know. I don't camp and am not familiar with some of the terms. My husband knew what it was.
Glad to see a follow up, I really enjoyed the first video.
Great video and once again non bullshit attitude and instructions. I love the style boss keep it going. 👍🏻
Oooorah! Marine. That's some more good training. I would have eaten this spaghetti o's straight out that can. I never had training like that from the marines. Your son is really lucky to have you as a dad. I would want you on my survival team. Would love to meet you too. Keep bringing that good marine corps spirit. Semper fi brother!
Absolutely incredible. Still in awe how you use a piece of wood for a hammer!
As a fellow welder I always smile when you handle the birds nest as it engulfs in flame and you casually put it where it belongs. People don’t understand just how much damage we do to our hands 🤣🤣🤣
These two videos taught me a lot. Thank you very much.
Fine tutorial...! Still catching up on older content, and it is Good Stuff! Thanks for all you do!
Easily becoming my favorite channel. Really enjoy your work. Outstanding!!
Thanks
Just found your channel. Very impressed with your systematic gear and resource utilisation. I think efficiency and a careful thought out approach are often overlooked, replaced with a ‘just get it done’ attitude that can lead to potential issues. Looking forward to seeing more of your content
That's the way to do it right there. Good shelter from good living from Glenn catt right after you lit the fire best tune I heard in a long time smile on babes face
Without a doubt.... One of the best shelter/overnighters out there. Ive watched this 10 times for sure, and the part 1.
love the video my man, keep up the good work! These and your knot videos are my favorites. I couldn't tell you how many times I've re-watched them.
I like these shelter builds... I feel like if say you broke an ankle and couldn't get out or didn't have cell reception, if it were a winter situation you could use the walls as firewood since you couldn't go far. Thanks for all your info Shawn
You might last two days if you were stocked up with firewood, but you would have to go get more wood at some point. Your best bet at that point would be a mylar blanket and a lot of canned food. Forget the fire.
I like how you do wood management lots of people think they have to have large bond fires but the a fire only as large as you need is the better way. So you won't run out during the night.
This is what should be taught in schools. Thanks for your videos, outstanding !!!
Back in the 80s I was in a Civil Air Patrol ground search and rescue unit. This was back before MREs were common outside of the military. Ditto for freeze dried foods like Mountain House. So, we typically carried canned foods which we heated right in the can. We then put the cans in the fire to burn out leftover food and to remove the anti-rust coating. We'd then bury the cans. We figured that by burning the cans they'd rust away to nothing in a shorter time.
That was a different time and I now pack out anything I carry in.
Dave Markowitz, back in the 60's before Mre's , all of our food in the army was in cans. we carried a 3 day supply in a army green sock. 1st Cav. airassault,airborne, air mobile.
@@victorcastle1840 Sure, C-Rats and K-Rats. One of my uncles served in the Army in the Pacific. Sometimes they would just take the chocolate from the rations if they were traveling really light.
If I can't get outside, the next best thing is to watch your videos, Corporal! Another great one! Thanks, and God bless!
I'm an army veteran, just wanted to say thanks for your service to the country. Mora knife, and a can of Spaghetti-Os, nice! Good stuff, thanks for the demonstration.
I like the improvements over the last set up. If you were a woman, you wouldn't want your hips falling between those garbage bags. You'd want 3 smaller bags so your hips hit the middle of the middle bag. I know. Would love to see how this would work with a family bugging out.
Good point!
20 pounds of the right gear and one informative video. Thanks.
Nice work mate, that bed looked good. 👍
Nice video, I really enjoyed it. Thank you for your time to make that video.
SurvivalAustria
I'm liking the music choice. Great series of videos
That's one crunchy sounding mattress, lol. And sheep...or goats? Great work as always!
I really enjoy this videos and I really like how you added a lot of different links to other videos you have made that show you how to individually craft something. Thank you, now I can learn this skills due to your videos!
I love these videos. Keep up the great work. Will we be getting any new field recipes any time soon?
He did changed recipes...he went from Mac & Cheese to SpaghettiO's with Meatballs. Both are mt favorites.
Den Smith no, I meant like the cooking with corporal vids
Den Smith Beef-A-Roni here!
You could always carry some Dinty-Moore beef stew along too.
Whoa! Ease off the throttle with that Dinty Moore. There's smoothing it, and then there's outright hedonism.
WOW, I never cease to be amazed by the things you do out there in the wilds with almost nothing. I really enjoy watching. I know that if I was out there, yes, from your instruction I could survive! I love the leaves idea in bag. a leaf bag bed - great idea!!!
You look cozy and comfy with the mini cabin and warm fire. I really like the way you cook the food from the can - I never thought that a smell of any food would attract the bugs, and other animals (like a bear, etc.) As usual everything was OUTSTANDING!
Shalom and G-d bless Mr. Corporal! ;)
Qypsy Q Traveler aka Pamela Prizant-Brooks Marines have been doing so much, with so little, we can do almost anything with nothing now.
@@michaelzimmerman8959 it was my honor
Tossing the cans in the fire to cook out the scraps and keep critters away from camp.....excellent tip!
I love these videos. No bs, just good info. You make me regret buying a bunch of useless gear. Keep up the great work! P.s. will we ever see a corporal's corner "bushcraft base camp" video? I bet you'd make a great camp.
these are my favorite videos of yours.. showing how it all comes together. . makes me want to get out in the forest! those swagman rolls look awesome need to get one.
Awesome use of “butt ton” to describe how much wood you’ll need.
My first “bushcraft” thing was making the wood carrier after I saw your video a couple years ago. I keep the same lines packed and add new “handles” when I go in the field. Easy peasy....
These are my favorite Corporal's Corner videos, the time you spend in the woods demonstrating skills. After these improvements you're definitely smoothing it!
Ah the burning of the can thing is pretty smart. Saves water. Thanks!
Definitely the best and most authentic bushcrafter on utube... keep up the lessons because I’m learning a hell of a lot Thank you so much
The cold won’t get you, but the food certainly will :). Good channel. Thanks for the upload
Man I love your channel. I knew why you tossed the can in before you even addressed it. I still learn so many things from you. I recommend your channel.all the time. Thank you..
Spaggetios rock!! Love the practicality of the information you provide. Thanks.
Hello, and welcome to Corporal's Corner Hotel and Woodland Resort for One. It's a little gem tucked away in a nice little corner of Heaven, complete with barnyard animals you can hear but can't see LOL!!
I did like the improvements you made. I like the low wall behind the shelter, and the amount of room gained was worth the calories burned. Repacking the bags with leaves was the way to go.
Spaghetti-Os were okay, but I liked corned beef hash better. Same amount of garlic used in both, to be sure.
Keep up the good work, Corporal. Enjoy the resort.
Looks great dude! Your delivery and the way you converse and share- just awesome. Favorite bushcraft channel, by far! By the way corporal, when's the next "how to" kitchen video?!??! Thanks again!
Thank you for the upload! I remember you were looking for a Grabber replacement. Have you checked out 2gosystems trifecta V3? It has reflectivity, tie-out loops including a center loop, and it zips into a bivvy bag. If you have checked this out, what are your thoughts, please. Thanks again.
My new go to bushcraft channel. I never get a chance to go camping so this is the next best thing. If I ever get lost in a forest I hope I bump into you 😜
Marines are the salt of the earth ! Awesome vid .
I was always taught to pack out shell casings, don't leave any to find. Tula steel case ammo makes it easy, use a sweep magnet. Great video, very informative.
I like how you approach demos you make things self explanatory
Love the upgrades and seeing you back in the shelter for a follow up video. I like it when you show incremental changes to your shelters. Shelter build series FTW! ❤️
Can’t believe you have so many videos on your channel….. all of them great and informative….. been watching as many as I can! Going to watch them all…..
Outstanding. Great improvement to the basic with little extra effort. Thank you for sharing!
Great video another item to think of is a dollar store plastic painter's tarp doesn't take up much space but can use as a super shelter. You would be surprised at how warm you can get 👍really enjoy learning different ways of doing things thank you for sharing.
Wait....I saw a smile I think at the 9 minute mark. good god! great video...come to California and we will go camping as long as I can take my trailer...
I always like learning new things. Thanks for going over why you put the cans in the fire.
Hello from Oklahoma! Great super shelter you've got going there. On the issue of cans in the fire. I was taught in boy scouts back in the 70'S, burn the can to start the rusting process. Then smash them and bury them. I'm thinking thats kinda outdated now. Loved the video! Always entertaining! God Bless!!!
Double D Been reading a lot about heating the can and eating out of it. Seems like I heard they put a coating in them that makes them unsafe to do that.
Thank you for your useful experience, Teacher Corporal !
Good video, thanks for explaining reasoning behind burning the can - makes a lot of sense. Thank you.
Great video as always! I'm checking and fixing my gear while I'm impatiently waiting for the snow to melt and strap my kayaks on the roof.... I can't wait to test some of your tips and ideas! Thanks for the videos, keep em comming!!!
love the logic about tossing the can into the fire and then packing it out. Nice.
Great vids sir.
Glad you addressed Pack it in, Pack it out.
Thanks for doing what you do.
Really really great stuff, again. Thanks! Keep it up.
love the videos!! ive learned alot from watching you daily. Youve got me more interested in bushcraft, and just wanted to say thank you
Thanks for mentioning the can man...I know there are those types who get triggered easily, but most of us had it figured out the episode before. Oh and thanks for triggering my memories...I used to do all the bush crafting stuff as a kid growing up in the country. It really never occurred to me I was a bushcrafter as a kid camping by the creek, catching our own bait, fish, and cooking it in the fire wrapped in clay lol...we though we were Indians. One note I have to add is the type wood that will make coals is important...look for oak or hickory if you have it to use at night to make the coal bed last a little longer...just a suggestion for others. Keep up the great work! Anyways you have a loyal Sub here because you know the deal...It's like you're from around here or something. Thanks!
I love these videos and how you added onto an absolutely great shelter with minimum gear keep it up.
work smarter not harder FREEKING class vid fella ❤️🇬🇧
Love this stuff. Thanks for all you do!
The tree notch trick is the best idea I’ve seen in a long time! Thanks for sharing.
These are great videos these are the things what we should be learning in school.
Outstanding Cpl! Love this type of videos very much...
Another educational and entertaining video. Thanks
Oh wait, no bacon? Not a grub meal without your bacon. Lol. Love the remodel. As we who do horseback riding on the trails say, “what you bring with you, you take home with you”. No littering on the trails.
Minimal Gear, clear head, sound body, strong spirit and ingenuity: "Need I say more?" Perfect ... Thanx
The kit display with the medieval sounding music was a norm but then.........Spaghettios!!!!!! I died right there !! That was great!!! Keep it up sir thanks for all the great content.
