"Hurricane" by Joakim Karud / joakimkarud
Once when we were hiking the north end of the Bartram Trail in North Carolina (near where it joins the Appalachian Trail) it rained really hard for a couple-three hours. It was summer. We had umbrellas, so our bodies were mostly dry, but our feet were wet, wet, wet. When it started getting dark, we pulled over to a level place about 50 yards off the trail. Art pushed over a small, dead tree and dug out the dry punk wood in the middle. That was his fire starter, and then we sat around with our boots off and dried our prune-wrinkly feet. That was 15 years ago. Art is really good at this. -ART's dad.
When I was in my early twenties a couple friends and I went snowshoeing in winter on the north side of Mt. St. Helens. It was an adventure, but the related part is that when we stopped to camp, one of my friends started a fire on the deep snow, so he could make tea. The fire sunk about three feet and we had to cut steps in the packed snow to get down to the fire. Actually, I think he had a small, backpacking stove. But it sank.
I would love to see you in videos like this with your Son and Grandkids. I bet you would have a lot of great experiences to share. Nothing beats the sage wisdom of time and experience.
I'm more or less deep in the background of some of the videos. My interest now is in observing the quiet miracles of every day. Like imagining the Earth spinning around the sun--that sort of thing. As an example, we often went out at night and looked for dark skies to observe the major meteor showers. I've got a big bonfire to burn soon. Maybe Art and clan will join me.
that kiddo that he has with him is going to be a regular daniel boone ! cheers
Being a nurse is such a great asset for you homesteading videos. You think from a different perspective than most of us that is very helpful. Great video!
More like this, Art. I mean keep up with the homesteading, of course, but wilderness wisdom goes hand in hand with homesteading. One tip I taught my sons about gathering enough fire wood is to gather what you think you need, then gather five times as much. THEN you should have enough!
Very Good. Agreed.
This was neat. I took a survival course a couple of years ago. We went over starting a fire, but not really how to find dry fuel in inclement weather. I don't even know if that occurred to any of us. Thanks!
Super Cool Art!!! Love the sap nugget!
Thanks, Art. That was very informative.
Excellent vlog, thank you. we get our kids using our go bags and doing this kind of bush craft regular ,we hope it will be less stress if ever we are in a survival situation. You have great knowledge of the woods. really enjoy you sharing it
birch starts really well
Very good video! Very informative! I like the diversity of your subjects!
This video was fantastic Art! Thank you so much! I had all my children watch it as you taught many things that everyone should know. My favorite videos have always been ones about farm animals but now I want more like these. Thank you for showing us important essentials that we should all know. Have a fantastic day Art and Bri!
Great job teaching how to observe materials as you go along in the woods. You have a gift for teaching Art. Thanks! I noticed you have an abundance of pine starts in the snow...lovely :)
Thank you, this reminded me of my father. He always was teaching how to do things on my own being if first child and only girl. I know stuff and how to do things that most of my boyfriends have no clue how to do. I miss these lesson as he is no longer here. But he's lessons will ales be with me.
I learned a lot of great stuff from this video. thanks!
Very informative, as always. Thanks 😀
Very informative Art.. Thanks so much!
Love the survival tips videos.
Another great VLOG from you sir! I Learned a bunch :P
Great lesson, just remember to be careful your fire is under control, your location was very important.
I have a new respect for fire after our recent NC wildfires. Fortunately on a day like this when everything is soaked, the risk is pretty low. On a dry day I would have cleared a larger area of leaves. Good point.
Always enjoy your nature vlogs 😊
Great video Art. More! More! (Beth)
Thanks. Great informative video.
Lots of good information thanks.

Great information ! Thank you
Mate, this is a great instructional video. I love your style, your honesty and spirit.
Glad you like it! Thanks.
Good information. Thanks for the video.
Good information...I saw Danny on Deep South Homestead, start a fire with a Frito. Give it a try.
The Frito burned for a long long time. Have a blessed day...and remember to carry some Fritos with you.
Very informative, thanks for sharing
Great video, Art!
Awesome video, I loved this!
Thanks. Great life saving info.
Just had an epiphany: The way you speak and share your thoughts reminds me of a hybrid of ...... CAPTAIN KANGAROO and MR. GREENJEANS ...... that's a compliment, Art! Great info in this video and love the way you took us through the whole process!
Way cool! Thank you!
I keep a lighter multi-tool everywhere. Its a butane lighter too. But I love survival tips.
awesome information ! great video
awesome! thanks for the great info!
best vid ever
good knowledge, thanks!
Thank you! One of our goals for this year is to try to be better prepared for emergencies (of different types). This video is right in line with what we want to be able to do! Thank you for getting us started! :)
It's also good to know how to build a 3 sided shelter as well. So you're protected along with the heat. Just don't burn down your shelter in the process! =P
Great job with that fire Art, I've had to start a fire on the prairie with the winds gusting crazy out here in SD. It's difficult but do-able. =) We were being taught how by one of the guys here on Ellsworth AFB for a field trip for the kids at a local school I drove bus for. It was great to learn. I also got to pretend jump out of a plane (it was really just off a platform) all strapped up in the parachute gear because none of the other bus drivers wanted to do it. LoL It was a really fun day with the kids and the guys from the base.
🌾Merry meet 🌿
