Nick that's a great rundown on the cabin and I love the idea behind it, very thoughtful and will help a lot of families I'm sure. Better than my place too! haha
Rest of the video is great. Nick is really good at explaining things in a way everyone understands. I'll be showing young family members this one, before I take them out.
Magnetic pole has moved a lot the last few years. It is indicative of the great cycle suspicious observers talk about. So these skills will probably be vital sooner or later.
I always have a first aid kit everywhere I go, with standard smaller stuff in, plus 2 israeli bandages (fully packaged for hygeine, but may unpack and stage 1 now, as hygenically as possible) and 2 tourniquets (both staged and a sharpie with each one to put time applied on them) and a leather belt always. Had blood loss and seen bad bleeds and not being in a position I can't help if/when I see another, maybe myself.
I think all this should be taught in school. Outdoor survival, first aid, foraging.
Cheers guys, good stuff!

I've made a spoon on a whim next to a campfire by burning out the bowl with a small ember of charcoal, blowing on it and causing the wood to char in a very localized area, then clearing it out with some sand and water as a paste, and then scraping the mess off with the tip of my daily carry SOG folder - while at an abandoned old Soviet airfield in Latvia, running a 100+ person LARP event with no facilities of any kind (the outhouse didn't even have a seat, until I made one out of some scrap lumber lying around.
You can do a lot more with a lot less, if you put your mind to it. I used the spoon to eat the local Army Veterans Association's field kitchen foods for the entire event. It's still knocking about somewhere.

Mike - this video has made me think that you should get into podcasting! Get survival guests on, like the chap in this video, it would be great to listen to and I am certain lot of people would be interested.

Oh I've wanted to see Nick on again for ages. Brilliant collab and I think I'm going to make my wife get me a course for my birthday next year. Want one of the hidden valley patches.
