20+ Wilderness Survival Tips and Bushcraft Self Reliance Skills

The extended pine tree info was great stuff ! Watch this folks ,, two tricks I've never seen .

Great video. I never new pine could do so much. Few more tricks now in the bag. Good man

Priceless tips. Thank you!

A lot of these we learned just growing up in National Forest land, heavy forest (well, until the Dixie Fire). But I never learned the stealth fire trick before! Thank you!

Living in a Mountain Town in Northern California, we were sent out as children tocookect the large sap covered pine cones for our mothers to use for lighting the wood stove.

I'm no outdoor rookie and can say your tips are the best I've heard in years

stuffing yer shirt with fire-starting fuzz in a survival situation seems counterintuitive

Dryer lit is nolong the tinder it once was with all the synthetics out now.

Is pedophilia a social norm for men of renown now?

it is very useful

You teach skills I've never seen on other channels, and I watch many. Thanks for a your videos and hope you continue to make them.

I learned some bushcraft in my younger years. Since moving out to the Country I've learned much more, there's much more to learn to succeed in the Country than the city. One thing is important; when someone gives you advice, even if it's 12 year old kid, listen and learn!

See Mark 1 ka-bar,hit play button! Mark 1 is the reason I spent 500$ to get the TRC Mille Cuori. Its not as comfortable neither more practical than the kabar,however, the performance and the quality, is x times better,as their price difference.

Great video! Especially the beginning section on using pine sap and fat-wood as fire starters.
An avid camper and carpenter my whole life (turning 60 years old today), I’ve experienced pine sap in a campfire being entertainingly brilliant when it catches and pops in the fire. Yet I’ve never seeked it out intentionally as a fire-starter. But I’ve never really needed to, not being in a survival situation in any of my camping adventures. (Yet)
Plus, living in Hawaii for decades where pine trees don’t grow, my pine sap days were a distant memory.
Now I’m back in the Pacific Northwest, back in the beautiful and fragrant pine forests. I look at them differently now and watch videos like yours as to how I’d start an emergency fire in the rain? That was always a challenge in Hawaii but not necessary for warmth so giving up was an easy option. Here, giving up means freezing to death.
My first year back in the north woods, I had a wood-burning stove and bought fire wood that came with a baggie of “sap wood” as a fire starter. Interesting. I wondered where they got the sap-wood? Was it a special tree? A special part of a special tree? I didn’t know. Working now in the tug and barge shipping industry, our raw dunnage comes as grade-3, 4x6’s undried, full of sap, and a carpenter’s nightmare. Twisted and full of knots and bark, it’s not something you’d build a house with, but basically disposable and works fine for dunnage. And here the mystery of the sap-wood was solved. I have literally tons of it now. Grade-3 lumber is from the outer most parts of the pine tree. This is where sap-wood comes from. Every pine tree has it in them. How convenient. I save all the cutoffs and especially the hardened sap and sapwood for camping with guys from work who grew up here and nothing beats pine sap as a natural fire starter in the notoriously rainy northwest.
I always have a way to start a fire way easier than just a spark from a flint, but I find lately that very unsatisfying and almost like cheating. It’s way more fun to start a fire the hard way. A ferro-rod spark aimed at some sock lint and ground dried pine sap takes work, the wind is a pain in the ass, gotta get some dry tinder, but once that spark turns to flame, you EARNED that fire.
Thanks for showing survival tips hardly anyone would use these days unless they actually needed them and found themselves totally helpless. It’s always good to practice survival techniques when you don’t actually need them. That way you’re ready when you do.

What a knife do use in this video? Thank you

How do you like the Kabar?

Liked it

Thanks so
Much...great tips

Then a bear shows up and eats you, the end.

Is there any way to use lighter flints alone to start fires.

Instant sub. This wad a great, compact useful guide. I had no idea sap was so useful to be even used as a makeshift bandaid!

ive always used birch bark to start fires just cause i thought it burnt well! cool to see it on this list

Oh man the devs really went into detail in regards to the world building

New to bushcraft. I found this video very informative and helpful. I will definitely apply what I’ve learned from it. Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and upload it!

Found you on TikTok and love your videos!! Keep up the great work!!
Any suggestions for knifes for bushcraft?

Very informative, no BS, straight to the point with great info and practical examples... Instant subscribe. Fantastic video, mate!

Good Information Sir

All very good tips!

I have to admit I learned a lot thank you

No sound

Pine sap/resin can also be used as a temporary tooth filling and as a primitive glue especially if you mix charcoal or animal dung into it to reduce the brittleness of the set product 😉👍🏻😎

Love your videos. Straight forward and explained well. Like to more...

Don't fill the hole with dirt to put the fire out it can defently still burn and start a forest fire make sure the fire is out first

This is a REALLY well made video, you've put a LOT of work into the content and presentation, thank you 👍

It's a real pity that 99% of your uploads are shorts 😕 I can see from the view numbers that it's really working for you tho'...

I really appreciate this channel.❤️

It amazes me that these outdoor survival channels are always in love with ferrocerium rods, but
they NEVER cover the three dollar ferrocerium/magnesium fire makers from Harbor Freight. These are not nearly as "macho," but they are totally indestructable, and cheap. And they will burn anything. The only thing you can do is lose them. You can start a fire under ANY conditions, as long as you have come combustable fuel. It can be wet wood or anything. Get real.

What's the blade your using in this video

Thanks!

Exceptional, thanks.

I’m currently prepping for when SHTF this year and beyond but I just found your channel 🎉😮really amazing and simple straightforward advice with minimal tools. Yes 🙌🏾 teach me how to use the environment around me 🤌🏾

Off-topic here, big fella, but I was wondering what's your preferred knife and axe sharpening equipment and techniques?

Thank you lots for this content. If I ever get stranded, or ww3 breaks out these tips will be helpful!
