and all my friends today we will today we will see how to make a fire in an environmental former environment full of blowing grass and dead leaves really dry material which can keep fire really easily when you can provoke very easily an accidental fire we will see how to make a small fire to cook more things and to boil some water without any damage for the environment around you can see this is the environment full of dry grass and dead leaves which will take fire very easily so we have to pay much attention at occidental files it's a method of delay also I'll pass in the case of the stealth fire when we want we don't want to be seen from anyone because there is a small fire over which we will leave no trace of our passage so let's start first thing we have to clear roll area where we want to make our file in this case this is the portion where we will make the fire then we have to find a good stick to to dig home the the ground this is the small hole in the ground this height and then we have a line like this here okay we will put the bed of sticks down there and then we will set fire now as you can see we have put made a bed of wood and the longer sticks on the line as long as the fire keeps going you can just push the sticks on the fire and they don't have to grab any other kicks around this is an invasion of mine just taken a dish and put some wire steel wire around like this you see and here you see so I can adjust the distance and put it on it like this here I can put small things on it like this no problem and we can use the charcoal we've adjusted as part of the fire stealer as you can see we have this piece of chocolate shark would you put it inside here burlesque

now we put our ticks on the on them and the sticks on the bed of sticks we'll take a fire and we'll warm up our hole and we can use it with this for example we can prepare coffee [Music]

the they said we can feed this type of fire simply pushing the sticks on it as you can see the the fires stay away from the leaves around and the develops only on the middle eventually in the case of a bigger window you can put a shield around I will show you in a moment even if the shield is not necessary because you can dig a bigger deeper to avoid the shield but anyway if you have it with you you can always use it like this you just push the sticks down where this beautiful sounds sound is my coffee ready you can see just push these small sticks on the fire and that's it that when you ever got done with your fire you just simply take the mud and you leave it without oxygen or in a while you see that nobody see that you have been here when you dig you will you be sure that you don't ever many roots any roots are in the the hole because they can take fire the roots and go up and underground and it's not very good not very good at all anyway as you can see the fires done no smoke and is there one of my other high place I came here roughly winter pasture because they really work around the winter you can see around because they're written down so between the tunnel were crowded by Green you see film is my puppet and the Sun has come out exactly in this moment anyway you feel around everything is really green during winter in this direction the leaves fall down and you can see the panorama that method to make a fire is NIDA whole is really useful to boil some water for the coffee for the teeth for event or if you want to make some rice on it anyway you can always dig a little deeper and make a bigger role have a bigger fire and nobody will notice your passage that's important also for the environment because it's not very boom good I mean if you have a good place where you want to go and have some relax you can always make a carpet and that's it but if you plan to stay in a place just once it's not good to leave too much traces around hope to see you soon guys a small passage a bit that away from here as you can see aero package after I've made this wear myself so the business rust as you can see from the traces I've been here for many years I don't see some wild animal [Music]
