hello guys today's raining but in the morning it was snowing but now it's become rain but anyway we'll go in the wood and make cook something very simple rice with mushrooms and then we'll see what we got in the wood everything is really wet but I don't care in a scenario like this for the ground is like this I prefer using feather sticks to start my fire you can also use dry grass and put it in your jacket and wait it to dry up but for me it's easier with the fantastic I was planning to sleep outside in the wood for three days but fortunately the my job make me change my mind I had a few problems at work and so I can do that but it's okay anyway today I guess I will use a reverse fire I'm this type of environment is they're really good because you don't have to nurse it you don't have to nurse all the time and then also it keeps going longer the way I do it is they're taking two logs of this size and places them on the ground and I leave a space here and then I put the other logs in this way and I start building the reverse fire let's do it as you can see I have all build a few layers of wood and underneath the two logs bigger walks we were space there to let the oxygen flow the air flow now I'll put and we start the fire up there this is the would have taken from a dead standing log next tiny tree and either honest dry or in the outer outer part of the the log is what otherwise it is dry could have make higher one pile but I want to eat now so I start my last piece of that tree or make [Music]

some sticks and make feather sticks so let's do it [Music]

so it's good to have something to collect the wood I know that many people doesn't like when I use my knife and that way but you know what I never I've never broken a knife doing this and so for me it's safe if you have the knife we were the right thickness the reason why I prefer a thicker knife I know that you can use them to process the food or a to plant planting but I don't I don't care because I use them for bushcraft and there ain't really if I have to use to process the food I can always use another life

[Music]

the other good part is that you can boil your water without any problem we just have to put attention not to live too much locks drop because otherwise the starter food will start and the fire will start from the base and it's not the purpose of this I know that the new Traverse fire is needs some efforts more more effort to do to make but to build but once you have done it made it you don't have to do anything else and it's really useful especially in the winter you see the first layer and then also the second is learning [Music]

this is after almost an hour without doing anything

more than two hours has passed from when I started this fire others fire and I have done nothing 15 it
