moving out

This weekend is going to be good for you guys, because after my recent run in with the law (my parents) I have to move my camp to a different location on my property and will be able to show you full footage of from beginning to end setting up a bushcraft camp in a place that is pretty sparse and not that many resources this really will be a test of my survival skills. hope you guys enjoy and check out my new account that is linked to my new youtube account so that I will have a separate survival account.

Shelter disastrous

It has been another successful weekend of cooking out and having fun. check out this grill that we made with two tire ramps a closet rack and a barrel.
But it didn't all go as planed.........
My shelter in the woods had to be torn down because of it being "dangerous to animals" and now I have to move my whole camp somewhere else. I took a few pictures before it was torn down
