Oh

Oh

its mission is survival so I'm going to make the whole bowl water generator stay tuned all right so the spot that I've already been collecting some snow but basically there's no animal scat nearby snow tracks anything like that it's pretty clean snow I'm going to just put my bandana over here and top layer stop shaving this only have all this nice snow I can use I can put inside my bandana let's keep my ass protected from the snow with my mitts alright so I'm going to do is just bring the corners together and the middle that's in between them my hobo pouch will be ready I have two options I can either tie over hand in it and inside that loop place a stick or i can use cordage tie it to the top to hold the bandana closed which is what I'm going to do it allows you to use the full size of the band down that way just use two half hitches pretty simple all right just not to be anything special let's have two overhand knot now it's tied to my stick okay so my fires died down have a good bit of members now let the flames are low I'm going to hang this next to my fire and I'll build it up after

alright so underneath it I'm going to put a container go with my wood bowl now it's key if you have a prevailing wind to design it so the flames are constantly blown into your water generator the wind keeps pushing all the heat into it and you can already see that it's starting to get really what all right so that easy I'm getting some fast strips now it's only been over the fire for maybe a minute music to my ears alright so there's the mobile water generator very simple just a bandana with snowing it hung OB a fire I have to hang it obviously just off to the side and this is a great water generator because basically it just keeps cranking away you know you can walk away and it's just going to keep making water for you you know the only issues they have to run into is your container overflowing and also running out of snow so you got to keep an eye on it I mean you know this thing is still got tons in it I probably only gone down a couple inches and my bowl is probably one third full so it's real simple it's real quick and it doesn't need to be boiled it's already been filtered to the bandana and doesn't have to be a bandana it could be your pants it could be a shirt it could be a sock it could be a hat it could be a scarf it could be a pair of gloves especially like like mittens you know so this is a very easy way to secure water in an emergency situation in the winter well let's give it a taste oh man I love it ah

nice and crisp you know to get that clean thin you know deliciousness i just feel like i'm drinking clouds right now well let's be mention a survival appreciate your views your continued support see in the next one take care
