A channel about bushcraft, camping, hiking, cinematic video making and the outdoors in general. Bushcraft skills are indispensable for survival but this channel is not mainly about survival. I'm comfortable with good gear and tools!! I bring material for crafting to site and don't fell trees. Some of the things I do demands landowners permission. Location is all over Sweden. I do not give out specific locations in general. I film alone.No crew. I found it unbearable watching YouTube videos where people talked about doing stuff instead of just doing it. So I am silent and speak through action. The goal is for the viewer to feel as if they were there, taking in the beauty of nature, the scenic surroundings, different seasons, the sounds of the forest,pretty much all but the smell. Thanks for all support!

Video Description

#bushcraft #camping #survival #asmr Out camping on a solo canoe trip with lots of rain. Been away for a while spending time with the wife and kids. Been to Denmark, did some gardening, fishing and camping without a camera, playing my new vintage organ, saw Wardruna play in an old castle ruin. Awesome times. So the idea behind this video was just to go out camping and do everything as simple as possible. Like I would do if not making a video. Just being there for the moments. Fish, cook, Eat, sleep, paddle, portage. Repeat. I actually forgot to bring my fork as usual..but instead of carving a new one I just ate with my knife, spoon and fingers. A bit much rain this time to be comfortable. Lost both gloves, small lantern, a lens and a new jacket. 2 months away maybe made me a bit rusty. But it was worth it. At least I had one night without rain sleeping under the stars. That rain footage in the end recorded with my 35mm was maybe the best I ever got. Cold one day and warm the next. A lot of mosquitoes at one camp and none at the next. The Log fire I had at the end camp was because of mosquitoes. It gave out the right amount of smoke for many hours. The end credits mention a friend in New York. A friend I've had for many years now and some of my most used and favorite gear I got from him, like my Acme cold handle pans for example. He's been supportive from the start in what I am doing and in fact it was because of him I started shooting videos in the woods to begin with. So he sent me the backpack used in this video, it's a Frost River cooking and canoe pack. Stunning piece of gear and very high quality. Thank's again brother. Trying a more cinematic format this time. It's true 4k with the image a bit wider. I think I like the look of it but tell me what you think. Is it a keeper or should I go back to 16:9? Thanks for watching! #bushcraft #camping #survival #asmr
