Video Transcription

it's machine survival today we're going to start the process of building a bushcraft can stay tuned okay so a couple things I like about this site is that I have a ridge line right here heading down so that means that I have protection from being able to be seen from that way because they're going to be below me looking up and now I'm you're going to see my camp so that's nice it's nice to be on on a Ledge on top of a ridge line because it also allows you to look out and you can look down on animals things like that gives you a little bit more privacy now I'm actually underneath another Ridge up here which is beautiful because the people are up there or animals or anything like that if they're looking this way they're actually going to look right above my camp I'm actually going to be tucked in this nice little cubby now it's also going to help with with the wind and the weather and things like that because wind is gonna have a hard time finding mean this little secluded protected zone now you might notice there's a lot of downed trees there's no shortage of firewood and a log like that is a great spot to make a splitting station vxr and because of all these trees it's easy to find places to hang your hammock if that is your route I think hammock is a fantastic shelter to use because it gets you up off the ground so if the ground was real wet like if it's been raining a few days like right now it's dry being up up in the air and it's also i'm good to get off of snow in a hammock it's also good which is the most important reason probably for me is to get away from the tix so i really like hammock camping a lot

on the on the tix seasons so I like this little better watch off of that Lena huh I like this little secluded spot it's a good start we have firewood we have some privacy but I'll knock down our noise and others noise so first thing I like to do is find a place to hang my hammock because that is dependent on the tree so I can build my fire in front of me after that so I'd rather find at a hammock ain't hanging spot first than a fire spot this is a good tree and go in between those although that is a little now for me exam 64 but I believe I would fit in between those there's another one right here now this is a broken off dead standing oak so strong it's not really something I would prefer to hang off of because it's dead standing it's not a good strong living tree like that but it would be a good option if I was going to do a low hammock because obviously the base is a strongest part so I usually hang my hammock only a foot or two off the ground me very low to the ground so that is actually an option with the low hammock if not I can go between those two trees no problem so that being the case if I'm right here or right there I'm going to want to put a fire right there for that spot or right here and put a fire right in front in this spot for their as you can see I've actually had fires previously right there and I have camped and before and I did do my low hammock on that dead standing and it work just fine not a problem so I'm going to go ahead and start working on my fire pit
