Bushcraft trip – making primitive clothes, baking bread on hot stones, cooking meat over fire etc.



Day trip. I turn two reindeer skins into winter clothes, twist natural fibers into cord, bake bread, cook meat and sew a hole in a reindeer skin. Open the full video description for more information.

Here can you see all videos from the camp including how I made the shelter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9jIUl5tQU4&list=PLwMRed9dogc71CK8shz1fCocV5600xBKr

Location: Sapmi – the land of the Sami people in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. Clean and remote classic northern wilderness. Fresh water rivers. Pine, spruce and birch forrest. Mountains, bears, wolves, eagles, reindeers etc. No wildlife is giving campers problems. I can’t give you any information about my location, only that I am somewhere in Sapmi. You need to be the owner or get the owners permission if you want to do the same in Sapmi.

Consuming: Water (rainwater and meltwater). Meat (cow), bread (plain flour and water).

A few questions:

1. Can you give a few points about the clothes?
Yes – use one reindeer skin to make a cape and one to make a vest. It is some of the most simple designs ideal in case of the need for something quick in a survival situation. Reindeer skin is strong and don’t rip easily – how ever will I as a long term solution recommend sewing leather/skin as reinforcements on the cape where the antler get inserted and on the vest all the way along the head opening. The vest is defiantly the warmest and the most practical for work, but in case of bad weather does the cape offer some great neck protection and can to some extent shelter some of your other clothes from getting wet. Both designs still make you able to use the skins for sleeping and ground pads etc. though is the cape the only truly intact skin. One important point about the vest is to consider cutting the head opening a bit off center making sure it goes further down in the rear end or at least the same as the front end. You can greatly improve the vest by sewing a few stitches in the sides instead of trying to use a rope to keep the overlaps closed without gabs – I will do that improvement and the reinforcements off camera and use the vest in all the future videos this winter. I will also use the cape, though will I usually bring it along as a plain reindeer skin – but the holes will be premade ready to insert a random stick and quickly tun it into a cape incase of snowstorm or if I just want some extra heat on my back meanwhile sitting next to the campfire especially in the cold/dark winter months.

2. How did you make the bread?
Mixed water and plain flour. Nothing else – no baking powder and no waiting time before baking. It took about 10 minutes to bake the bread on the preheated stones.

3. What kind of sewing kit are you using?
Traditional Sami belt sewing kit – in my case homemade from reindeer antler.

4. What fibers did you use to make the belt?
Bark fibers from a “tilia” tree twisted together as a basic 2 ply method. One of the best natural fibers for traditional rope making in the north. In this case is it fibers given to me by the youtuber DonVonGun – he did prepare the fibers the traditional way by soaking the bark in water for weeks before drying and separating the layers. DonVonGun is from Denmark just like me and we have been on serval trips together off camera over the years – it was DonVonGun who inspired me to start making the silent bushcraft videos. Here is one of his videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKgWaDuIuNg

  4. The best part is that your clothes can still be a mat and a blanket when you decide to sleep. Thanks for letting us visit with you today 🙂

  5. You should consider stewing your meats in a pot of water instead of roasting them in order to get more nutrition. When roasting, you lose nutrients/calories that render and drip out onto the ground or into the fire such as rendered fat & collagen, and also water soluble nutrients like B vitamins and taurine. With a stew, you preserve all those nutrients in the pot, and you can get all the nourishment by drinking the meaty broth — which is also especially nice in the cold weather.

  6. My favorite time of year is coming up in us, where the leaves turn colors and the weather gets alittle bit colder and wet. I love the rain and thunder storms. Looking forward to the snow videos that will be coming soon. I’m gonna have to try and learn some of these skills you show on your videos. Knowledge is power.

  7. Remarkable my friend to this day you never fail to surprise as well as educate me ceep these videos coming

  8. You look like your having waaaaay to much fun with this series at this location. The varied content this time around is very much enjoyable.

  9. I am in beautiful south Florida…. I live paradise
    But I would leave anytime to go to your campsite
    You are blessed my friend
    I am happy for you

  10. I’m in Canada, and had the first overnight frost last night. Puddles had some ice on them but we’re not solid (unless very shallow). Leaves are still turning on some trees, where as others have started dropping. Temperatures are supposed to head back up to the high teens, low twenties (Celcius) the rest of the week, but the change is in the air. Western Canada has been hit with blizzards already. Watching this reminds me very much of the early snowfalls that are soon to come. Rune, you look as comfortable and content as ever. Thank you for the silent lessons and having us along! ❤️
