A Back Country Meal Review...Yukon Style !

[NKGMAN]

Thanks for the responce Ggreen. Outstanding videos Excellent knowledge being passed on.

B safe

[Ggreenvideos]

@NKGMAN Thanks you too :o)

[NKGMAN]

What type of fixed blade were you using to baton your wood?

Thanks Great Vid

[Ggreenvideos]

@NKGMAN Thanks! It was a Ontario SP5 16" carbon blade. Good knife. I don't believe they make it anymore though. But it may still be found.

[johnmonk66]

I am curious if you ever tried a teepee as a shelter, just use some paracord to hold 3 or 4 8 foot pieces of wood together and wrapped in a tarp. I can't find any youtube videos showing the use of one, though it seems it would be a quick way to make shelter

[Ggreenvideos]

@johnmonk66 Hehe...I haven't done that, although I have been thinking about it...many times :o) Just it's hard to carry a tarp that big when snowshoeing in the bush. Now if I were driving a snowmobile, that would change everything. I would be pulling a skimmer and hauling a canvas tent and a wood stove...hehe!

[johnmonk66]

@Ggreenvideos Didn't think much about weight, figured a 12 by 8 foot blue plastic tarp wasn't very heavy, but every ounce counts.

[Ggreenvideos]

@johnmonk66 Yeah :o)...plus a 12x8 wouldn't actually be big enough for that ! Especially where two people are considered. It would have to be much bigger.

[orangeampsforever]

I love that flavor, looks like you had a fun day.

[Ggreenvideos]

Yup, It's always a blast :o)

[calatorul78]

Nice video! I'm hungry... I must find some Mountain House seller in Europe :)

[Ggreenvideos]

Thanks Alex :o) I'm sure you could get it there. I have to say, It's a good meal in the great outdoors :o)

[shugemery]

My ! Great vid there Mr. Green. you are a snowshoeing, tree haulin', strong sawing, big knife splittin', log knocking feller!!!!

Looks like you had a terrific day!

MH is always pretty good. I wonder is one will get 10/10?

[Ggreenvideos]

Gee wilikers!...thanks Shug! I appreciate that man! Gotta' love the sprucey woods...hehe! :o)

[mustang774]

Looks like you had a great day. I love to go snowshoeing. Eating outdoors is always much better. Thanks for the review.

Take care,

Bluefin

[Ggreenvideos]

Yup, real blast :o) Nothin' like the great outdoors buddy!...and thankyou :o)

[Agfadoc]

As always dig your videos. Are you day hiking or doing overnighters? are you using the henessey and Super Shelter when you do?

[Ggreenvideos]

Thanks man :o) Haven't stayed overnite yet this winter.But it will come...probably via natural winter shelter! Won't be using the HH until we get some 4 season underquilts. The shelter alone on the HH won't cut it up here...hehe!

[ledzeppie]

holy crap a lynx is a once in a lifetime sight!

[Ggreenvideos]

I know hey! We were lucky on this day! Sure wish we could have got it on film though! Thanks man :o)

[zoolanderfred]

Nice one Bud! Fire, food, and the woods just go so good together. Hey, you need a mini snow shoe/ sled for the logs you drag around...lol........=)

[Ggreenvideos]

Thankyou buddy :o) I plan on making a pulk for later this winter, so I can drag out the Heini keg wood stove that I plan on making/using for my shelter...if I ever get it built...hehe! The sling works good though :o)

[Ggreenvideos]

BTW...The kettle worked great on the coals! No rubber handle burn...hehe! You can wipe all the soot and resin off with the alcohol :o)

[zoolanderfred]

Hey thanks, I'm gonna consider this one.

[TheRedHawk123]

[Ggreenvideos]

Hehe! Thanks bro, it was a great day! Nice and warm Just perfect. To be honest , I don't look at calorie counts...I just eat...hehe :o)

[madcow1001NL]

great pics of the lynx. Don't get them here in the wild anymore sadly.

again great scenery. Wish I had forests like that over here.

Only thing here is small patches of planted pine :(

[Ggreenvideos]

[noucuratlex]

Great shot of the lynx!

[Ggreenvideos]

[bushbumming29]

Great video 5*

What knife were you using?

And what is the calorie count on that meal?

[Ggreenvideos]

Thanks buddy. I appreciate it :o) The knife is the Ontario SP5! Sorry I can't tell you the calories on that one as I don't have the package anymore :o)

[Ggreenvideos]

My buddy Jan at Bushcraft and Canoe says complete meal is 290 calories. It's 2 servings. But I'm not one to count calories anyway...hehe! It is less than some other MH meals :o)
