honestly, its actually nice to know that you did this with no intention of hiding it. you stated what was going on, and once it was done that you would return back to the primitive ways. love your stuff chad!!
I hope Andy enjoyed the stay, it looked like a rough night. I hope he does come back to make that pottery with you. A big achievement to be able to live a few days out there with the weather and scarce resources.

You showed the Temps halfway through and made me super jealous!!! I'm sitting here in 3 layers trying to keep warm from the 5*F (-18 with windchill)... that 43* F looks glorious right now, even if there is still snow. xD Stay safe and keep warm out there Chad. I honestly don't blame you for wearing actual clothes and boots out there. While it might not be "primitive" it sure is intelligent "survival"... in my opinion I wouldn't care if there were a few winter episodes where you don some actual clothes for your safety, it wouldn't distract from the survival skills aspect of your show. Basically, good job being smart as far too many times have I seen people try to "keep up appearances" and end up getting hurt in the long run. So kudos!

👍👍👍👍👍Andy did his Trial of the Trader's Basket on the Trail/Trade Route (aka: route to Chad's) and Chad hosted. You guys made a really chilly couple of days "roughing-it" look like just another normal day. You both clearly knew what you were doing and how to do it. I really appreciate that. No exaggerated drama over how cold it was, even though IT WAS COLD. But on second thought maybe Chad edited out some really silly stuff. Merry Christmas everyone.

There was no silly stuff. I was genuinely concerned about the wet wood. I only edited out some dialogue that was just too long. These are just some of the realities of the primitive lifestyle. Preparation for the unexpected is very important. The problem is that shooting video takes time and reduces the amount of time available for important tasks.

I really don't think that I put my health at risk when I go cold. Two years ago I tested what it was like to be in just sandals and a loincloth in the snow. I spent more than an hour hiking in snow that was almost one foot deep and I only wore a loincloth and sandals. Eventually my entire feet were numb. I couldn't feel anything below my shins. When I returned to a warmer place and put on shoes the feeling very slowly began returning but it took at least a week for my feet to feel normal again. I like to do these tests so I can know my limits. I believe that it also makes the body more resistant to cold. I know that there is danger and I am aware of that but I am also so curious to know my limits.
nice start of my day. thx for good time of breakfast.
Always enjoy your sharing of your adventures. Suggest a small hut/ covered place to ke wood dry for times like this. Wishing you and your family Christmas Blessings 🎄🎄🎄

And that, Andy will -as he promised to do so- one day show you where to harvest the sweet acorns that are located south of Scottsdale, AZ ... so that you can eliminate the process of having to leach- out/remove the bitterness from acorns that you are now accustomed to. And lastly, it was good to see that both of you had used the large boulder -at the top of a hill/mountain- to get warm. Good strategy to getting warm! 👍

Dear Chad Zuber. Happy new year. 👍👌👏 Great video with a great guest (of course the host is great too). 😁 ;-) Although it's a bit broken at the rim, the gifted decorated ceramic pot looks really, really good. Please kindly allow me a suggestion: Maybe a very good cleaned, scraped and dried (mounted on a frame) pig bladder can be a kind of window glass substitute? It would not insulate a lot and the light going through is diffuse. But at least no wind would go through but a bit daylight so that the door could be closed even during the day. I've seen that windows with pig bladder and/or pergament had been used in ancient castles and houses. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health in particular.

Hey chad in all my experiences with fire pits and fire places we all ways had a baffle plate in them not only to keep the heat from burning out the back wall. But to reflect heat out into the room you can make them from flat stone or polished clay if using stone be aware that some volcanic stone explodes but do your research to find the right flat stone for a baffle/heat reflection plat kind regard and thank you for a really excellent production 😊

Hi Chad, Loved the video. Even with company you got some beautiful area footage, appreciated. Here too, desert freeze...17F!!! I'd say a place to keep dry wood, but, who would figure...rain and snow!!! I was wondering what you were gonna feed Andy, nice...and packed in syrup...yummm. Bet the hot meal felt good on such a cold day :-) Did I see tile on some of the floor??? Beauty job. I've noticed a lot of " off grid" folk, settle near natural resources....however after a time they need to go farther and farther to find "supplies". Cold winter is a good time to "distance" collect supplies, roof bark. Walking and working keeps ya warm, lol You need to make you a basket like Andy had. Collect as you walk in, changing routes to find more bark. Take care till next time, Merry Christmas or whatever, and a Happy New Year. :-)

Thank you and Merry Christmas!... Yeah, I've got a good supply of acorns to last a while. They are really a great food. Butter and syrup just makes for a great acorn mush meal.... Yeah, I placed the clay tiles on the floor to test them out. It helps so much to keep down the dust and it looks so much nicer.... I still have lots of wood resources near the hut. People don't realize how much dead wood there is in this immediate area. There is so much and it will last a long time however I do enjoy taking longer walks to collect wood and preserve the nearby resources.... I do want to make a big burden basket like Andy has. I haven't had much time to do these things because I spend so many hours every day on the computer working on my KZread channel but I'm going to make some changes and hopefully have time to do more primitive skills.

Tiles in summer will help keep it cool, but, in winter, I put down rugs, perhaps a few mats?? But, such beauty tiles, nice job. In my desert there is lots of wood, wouldn't think so but. How far to the next roof bark? We, your watchers, appreciate the time it takes to edit a video. And you always include really nice landscape and sky shots, framed well too.
