30 Days How I Alone 🌲 Build WARM DUGOUT 🔥 Into WILD FOREST Start to Finish - Earth Shelter

Published 2022-10-12
For your convenience, I have combined all the videos on how I built a warm dugout shelter in 30 days into wild forest on a hillside and not far from the river.

Now you have a unique opportunity to see the entire construction process in just 30 minutes.

What was done:
Dug a hole in the hillside;
Prepared the fallen trunks of dead trees;
Laid down the walls of the dugout and covered them with moss;
Made a waterproof roof, filled it with sand and covered it with turf;
Arranged a comfortable and reliable sunbed inside the dugout;
Made boards by splitting logs and made a door with wooden dowels and a hanging table out of them;
From stones dug out in the sand clay i built a large fireplace inside the dugout;
Made a cool cellar with a stone floor;
Crafted a flexible window;
Made a stone floor into dugout shelter;
For comfortable sleep, I made a pillow and mattress from moss and canvas bags.

In general, a lot of work has been done and I am very glad that I managed to do everything.
There were difficulties and mistakes in the process, but I got an interesting experience and a lot of positive emotions when everything worked out :)

I get asked a lot of questions, I'll answer a few:
- Isn't it damp in the dugout?
Inside the logs are dry, water does not get on them. Apparently water flows down on turf quickly due to the large slope of the hill.

- Is the roof leaking?
I put a waterproof fabric on the roof.

- Do round stones explode in the fireplace?
Stones don't explode. I warmed up the fireplace very slowly and for a long time. Now there is no such danger.

- Why is there a stone floor inside the dugout, and not a wooden one?
The stone floor inside the dugout is made for fire safety. The coals from the fireplace sometimes shoot out and fall to the floor.

Stay safe & thank you for watching!

  • Hi there! How do you like this video format? Everything is dynamic, without unnecessary frames. I liked this format. But I also like soothing atmospheric videos. What do you think?

    Your videos are so relaxing to watch. Please keep them coming!! Also, I can’t wait to see you camp in your new dugout during the winter!

    My fav youtuber! You have inspired me to do my own. The only thing is, is that I have flat earth. I dug 7ft down, and made it a 10'x12' width. Most of my logs came from a tornado that came through in spring so Ive been busy debarking, cutting, and dragging logs that are 9-10ft long. This has been no easy task for this 50 yr old. I love the workout, but it can get difficult. However, now that its taking shape, its getting more exciting. Primitive house building really gives you a sense of accomplishment, as well as a new thought process. Once I finish this project, I know I wont be right until I start building something again. Thanks for putting all this content together. Looking forward to your next project!

    I got dumped by my wife just because I'm passionate about making videos. I'm in a sad mood right now. I worked for 2 years without much progress. i'm so desperate..i just filmed and uploaded by myself...i'm writing these lines just to relieve my sadness. Your video was recommended to me by youtube. Thanks for knowing more about your channel Norway. After many disagreements, we really like to break up, I continue to do the work I love, I adopt 2 children. now I have to put aside all the hard work to grow this little channel. Hopefully it will gradually stabilize. Through this article, I hope you can see it and help me understand. mail from Vietnam. appreciate you.
