How To Build a Self-Feeding Fire – Wilderness Survival Skills


In this video and article I demonstrate a technique for building a fire structure that will burn continuously and does not require ANY managing. This is a great method to know if you need the heat from a fire while you are sleeping, but do not want to wake up repeatedly during the night to add more wood.

    @nesbitt615 But then people keep moving here… legal as well as illegal ones.

    @aguswidjaja Camping in Cali does suck. You want a fire, you have to pay for it. You want a shower, you pay for it . Extra cars…..Pay for it.

    @prettyparadoxal I miss the Ozarks. California is too controlled. In CA, they really restrict your camping site, setting fires, where to hike, freedom to carry firearms, etc.

    im getting agroup together to live in the ozarks for the summer- gaining up as much survival knowledge to use while out there. gathering a sort of “indian living” group of people to live on the land i have :) thank you for the info

    @HedgehogLeatherworks I went to school in UMR, and have canoed in a river in the Ozarks and visited caves there. What a beautiful memory. Is Rolla in St Louis county?

    Is it a good cooking fire? looks like a good bed of embers you get from it and a very hot fire.

  17. HedgehogLeatherworks

    Yes, in St. Louis county

  18. aguswidjaja

    Are you in Missouri?

    and clearing around your fire and putting a barrier around it?

  20. HedgehogLeatherworks

    Awesome… good luck!

  21. HedgehogLeatherworks

    You got it man… that is exactly how it works. I was blown away by it when I first learned it. Thanks for your comments!

    Very clever. This system of fire building would work well on damp ground. By the time the lowest layer of wood is burning, the ground would already have dried substantially, creating a dry surface on which to add more wood.
    Once hot, the fire appears to burn with very little smoke.

    Wonderful. Trying this out tomorrow. 34 degree weather requires a good fire. Thanks!

  24. HedgehogLeatherworks

    Awesome… glad you enjoyed it!
