This video features my construction of a stone-cum-wood shelter in a beautiful far-off forest. The biggest challenge in building this shelter was to collect stones from a seasonal creek a short distance away. It took me a great deal of time; it was time consuming and labour-intensive. What’s more, there was a tree-dwelling squirrel which not only walked away with my food-stuffs from time to time but also disturbed my sleep in the night. Typically feeding on nuts and seeds, it had sensed edibles down in my camp and couldn't resist. Whenever I would go to collect stones or bring logs, I would have been apprehensive about the squirrel. Once the walls were completed, I cut logs from fallen trees and then put the roof on the shelter. I used pebbles to cover the small gaps between logs; mortared, and then spread dried leaves of pine on it. Next, I put a tarpaulin and covered it with leaves of spruce tree. After that, I put mud on the leaves and gave the shelter a flat surface. Meanwhile, the weather turned bad and it began to snow. I made a door for the shelter in haste; it wasn't perfect and substantial, I think. While I was installing a door bolt, a snowstorm hit out of nowhere. A seemingly unending stream of snowfalls started and disrupted my work. I was not only to make some necessary works inside the shelter but to build a second roof on it as well. Moreover, I was running low on food because some of it had been stolen by squirrels. So I reached a decision to leave for now. Once the snow clears, I will go back and carry out the remaining work.

yes, Scientists sent that squirrel there for a very important experiment.

Finally, a great video of constructing a shelter without showing how to cook a meal. Thank you.

Thanks for watching. Next I plan to put a second roof on it and live there for some time. Still there’s heavy snow and all the logs I had cut off are buried. Once the snow clears, I will go back to complete the remaining work.

Love the overall design. Making me think of dwarves; "rock and stone" and all that . . . BTW, I am a bit concerned about the slope of your roof; it may be too shallow. Would hate for all that stone and wood to collapse on your head during a heavy snowstorm.

@thinkwilderness

Thanks for your concern, I appreciate it. However, the walls and roof are solid enough to withstand heavy snowfalls and storms. The slopes are that way because I plan to put a second roof on the shelter in coming days.

Наверное все камни в лесу собрал. Чтобы такие толстые стены положить. Это тяжести. Да и лес видно старый. Деревья вековые ели и сосны. Дом капитальный построил.

I would love to see this in person

Ребята, а зачем камни на крыше, между бревен? Забросал бы крышу только соломой с глиной...

Whats the wooden blocks for? And why did you make a flat roof?

stone house In winter,warmer In summer,cooler

Bro we need a second floor, heating, and finishing off the inside as well as the front.

wow...

Why didn't you build a fireplace and chimney, while building the walls to your shelter? It would have been far more comfortable, with some warmth. A fireplace is no more difficult to build, than a rock wall... Probably easier.

He tries so hard to build such a good and strong object and in the end he gets a mud roof that only brings moisture and rots the supporting wood !!!

Столько труда, важно при строительстве из брëвен удалять кору обязательно, иначе "мартышкин" труд.

@ Building a stone and wood survival shelter

So much wasted talent. You guys of the „I built a fortress in the wilderness, without an axe, without a tent, without clothes, without food, in heavy rainstorm and deadly blizzards“ type, you should build cities in civilization. That would be much more interesting. Bushcraft videos? OMG.

Very bad video.

Super unnecessary and excessive expenditure of wood!! This is called wasting resources, and having very little respect for nature.

possibly to stand there for a very long time. 🏚
