Then he began his outhouse & then started on his cabin,etc. His creativity & intelligence is amazing not to mention the fact everything he does is excellent in quality!

Wouldn't I just love a man who can build things, is self-sufficient, logs his own timber, catches/raises his own food and can cook! How much wonderful is here in one man? The skills he possesses will stand the test of time and allow him to survive anywhere. This is great to watch. Thank you so much for the rerun. What I love the most is the lighting of fires in order to cook a meal. Truly uplifting.

May we tackle our various projects and get them done and wake up refreshed each and every day. Blessings on you and your family and friends and any livestock you might have wandering around the house and yard. Stay healthy people!

Shawn, today’s video is very, very gorgeous. Kudos and bravo to you sir. 👏🏽👍🏽😀 I hoped 25 years from now when I retired that I will do maybe few of your huge skilled you are doing now. You are an absolute educated skillfully person. Your knowledge into your amazing property cabin is very amazing. I truly always looked forward to all your skillful work, hunting and all the amazing things you do when I get home from work and unwinding. Thanks sir. Very highly rated videos.👍🏽😀

I find it astounding that you go out, hunt for food, pull the feathers, singe it, build a fire, and make a gourmet meal just for yourself. You remind me of my oldest son. When I’m alone, I open a can.

I have loved every single one of your videos. I love the wilderness that is yours that you share with us. I will be here listening and watching until I die. They can’t take us away from you. I’m crying again. What a baby. This video is so beautiful I love having a little window into your world.💖

Have you ever considered writing a book on all the things you can make to survive in nature? Plants, salves, tools, drinks, construction. Even an outdoor survival cookbook!!It is amazing how much you know. If you ever get time to write!!! You keep so very busy always

Thanks Shawn for all of your videos. Your photography, cooking, carpentry, foraging, fishing, hunting and being such a wonderful dad to cali is a truly enjoyable viewing treat. My family would rather watch your videos than tv any day. My fur baby, an 8 yr old golden loves cali as much as we do. Is there anything you can't do??? We have learned a great deal from watching...what a wonderful life... we live in the country.. but other as remote. We had 2 moose stay for a couple of days. They try to raid our vegetable patch...God Bless..

Thanks for another awesome video. I just came inside from splitting wood and saw the notification and thought "Well, it's a good time as any for a break!" 🪓 🔥 🏕️

Thank you, Shawn, for this documentary of your bushcraft living, hunting and what you eat. When I saw you with that turkey on the table, taking off the feathers, I imagined how I would have to take a few deep breaths before starting to prepare the bird for dinner. I know I COULD DO IT, but I'd have to let go of the resistance toward seeing the reality of it, unfamiliar with slaughtering due to city life and buying meat ready to put in the pan. I've always felt that this way of living, foraging, hunting, for one's food, for the family or tribe, is the honest way proper. I'm sure that spending more time in the wilderness, like you've done already for quite a number of years, and provide for oneself, shelter, warmth, and food, helps to grow into it more, with ease and confidence. And to use the feathers, the parts of an animal that aren't edible, is awesome. Never let any useful material go to waste, in those conditions, isn't it? I so love the creative part of living self-reliant, inventiveness

I am so envious of you, who enjoys the most perfect nature. The creative woodworking technique and the most natural handling of nature bring tremendous comfort and satisfaction to the viewers of the video.

A another great video we all can enjoy thanks a lot

You are am inspiration, I can only hope when I'm able to move off grid I can mimic some of the things you do. I am getting my kids thru school and into college and then I'll be on my way. I have watched ever episode you have put out 2 or 3 times and some even more to see how you did it. Thanks for all you do and all you teach us. Please keep the show coming as I wait for the next one like a kid in a candy store. Lol.

You will never know the peace and courage your videos bring me. In the beauty of your creativity you give me strength to push on.

Hi, Shawn, Greetings from São Paulo /BR. Love de channel. Tnks.

I give your parents much praise and credit for raising such a fine, caring, respectful man who will instill these traits in his children and improve the human family.

This is where i come to relax and enjoy this type of living. Shawn you are truly a pioneer. Makes me want to move back where i grew up at which was in the country. Thanks for inspiring me for a long time now to move back home as soon as i can. By the way we both have the same first name and spelled the exact same way :)

I just got this one. Thank you ShawnJames ✌️🇺🇸✌️

So long, yet so relaxing. Very enjoyable. 👍

Man, this is great. I am following you since ages. This is, what life should be. Not just a desire, 99,99% of us will never be able experience. Instead we're running our jobs to make money and hope being able to pay for vacation once a year. If i had a chance, i would instantly switch my current life for something similar. Yet here I sit in Germany, where i'm not even allowed to stay over night in a forest if it does not belong to me. Watching these videos is pure joy and keeps me sane. Keep it up and never stop!
