Welcome To Survival-Russia. One of the very best Outdoors and Survival related communities on RU-vid, and yes, It's a pretty good Channel too.
My name is Lars. I'm From Denmark but I live in Rural Russia now. I live at a Homestead in wild nature surrounded by a huge forest.
On The Survival-Russia channel we do all things related to the Outdoors Lifestyle. I share my thoughts and experiences on Survival Techniques for the woodlands of the Northern Hemisphere. the Reality of Survival. I share Techniques and ways of the Siberian Tribesmen and the Russian Longhunters of the older days. Things not shown outside of Russia very much.
On this Channel we also do Off-Road driving, Vehicle builds, Metal Detecting, all things Outdoors basically. Enjoy!

How can this type of content ever get boring? Walking in the Siberian Taiga with a genuine Siberian bushman who loves to impart his bushcraft to a universal audience. Life is good indeed.

@miguelsanchez8238 3 года назад

Great video. I am a forester and banging a wooden peg into a tree is not going to harm it at all. It will just produce resin for protection and grow around / over it . I have found pig netting, iron nails, musket balls and even an old iron gate and railings in the middle of perfectly healthy trees. (Not so healthy for my chainsaw though). Trees are amazingly resilient.

@anesthetized7053 3 года назад

i had an interacion with someone who was a "tree enthusiast" (which is a generous way of putting it) when i was building some wooden footholds up to the top of a tree to build a rope swing on one of the branches. The footholds were secured by iron nails, which deeply concerned the tree enthusiast. they caused such a racket that we had to hire an arborist to come and weigh in on whether or not the tree was being harmed. It goes without saying that the tree enthusiast was no longer an issue after that. trees have much more serious things going on than a couple of nails or an axe wound.

There are many who share this information on youtube. And when I find something that I know will make other folks lives better and free them from big pharma, I share it on my facebook page and in the various groups I am a part of as well as my own group. And YOU can do the same. Share the information around and encourage your friends and family to do the same. The more of us that share what is freely given to us, then the more the knowledge will spread like a wildfire, and the better folks' lives will be.

Balsam Fire sap is good to put on cuts, because it is antiseptic. We live in Northern Maine, and our Balsam Fir trees look identical to yours. The sap is also good for burns, sores, or any other wounds. One other point. We tap our trees for Maple and Birch sap, and pound a wooden peg into the hole when we remove the tap from the tree. The trees heal just fine. City people have no clue sometimes! :)

Anyone who gets their panties in a twist about traditional bushcraft techniques is not worth paying any attention to. You're too concerned about whining from people who know nothing of what it means to be one with the land and nature. Forget them Lars, keep on sharing these wonderful experiences with others who appreciate them as much as I know you do!

Thank you for taking us along on your walks in the woods. Please don't hesitate to show us the old ways of doing things. If someone is offended by the old ways then they are not interested in leaning about history. I am an old man stuck in Richardson, Texas (Dallas County} and I can remember the days back in the 1960's when I hunted. We used anything we could fine to make deer hunting work. There wasn't all this fancy stuff to use. Now deer hunting has become a giant industry that only the rich can afford.

We have the same trees here in Minnesota. The resin from the blisters is the best antiseptic I have ever found. Just take some with the tip of your knife and pot it on a cut or scratch and it will stop the bleeding and make it heal faster.

You can make a salve with sap, little bit of natural oil and bees wax. Very good for little cuts and all types of skin conditions.

I've never tried making it into salve, I usually make salve from what grows near the house. I've got so many Balsam trees in the forest it's easier just to get the sap fresh. I'll try to make some salve next year when I get more beeswax so I can have some to travel with.

The resin from that tree is extremely awesome in fighting infections from cuts and scrapes. It will help heal the wounds and stop the infection. You can put it directly on the small cut, wound or scratch. It will cover and mak a protective barrier. My grandmother taught me as a child while camping.

@BradyPatterson 3 года назад

Others have said already but Balsam Fir is same here in Canada. Good medicine. I collect the sap for healing. If I get cut, add a little bit and a tiny piece of toilet paper, moss, etc and you have an instant bandage with antiseptic properties. Also, it works better than anything I've ever seen for healing burns.

I have moved from the grasslands of the west to the woodlands of Nova Scotia. My son and I have been trying to learn the different trees of the forest. There has been this tree with smooth gray bark with bubbles we have been trying to ID. Is it Fir? Hemlock? Hem/Fir? Ah!! Thank you Survival Russia! It is actually Balsam Fir. Not to worry about a wooden peg in a tree. We have 100 yr old wire fencing surrounded by living trees deep in the forest.

@raytheron 3 года назад

The oldtimers lived WITH Nature, not just IN it. They took better care of their environment than most "treehuggers" do, so I wouldn't waste a second on their worries about a stake in a tree. I have seen healthy trees that have grown around bicycles, pipes and rocks, even. And it's no different from grafting, anyway.

What does make me cry is the likelyhood that loggers will enter your forest and cut down those trees which you do not own on your own land. We all enjoy your sojourns into the Russian woods and to look at a clear cut will change the nature of your videos. Here's hoping that the loggers find better hunting grounds somewhere else.

Licorice Root added to my coffee and yet bought for teas for health, including chaga. Learned how tea is good for us, and sometimes better than food. Especially because what food can do to the gut if it's nicht so gut or funky dear. That root is good for repiratory and as sweetener for coffee. Coffee I may have tonight, by my "Suburban Tissue Fire" missing the forest for a few moments.

@cybersean3000 3 года назад

Resin: As children, we would take a small twig, poke it in a resin bubble, and throw them in water to watch them "race". In a dead tree, you can harvest the wood where the resin has concentrated. We call this "fatwood" and it is excellent for starting a fire. I think the liquid resin can be heated and concentrated into pitch or pine tar. This is much like the black stuff at the base of old pole holding up telepohone or electrical wires. "Do something awesome every day!"

My grandfather used to do search a rescue up north in Canada. They used to carry a spade bit and drill a hole in trees for pegs in a similar manner. Mostly they used them for hanging ridge poles for tents and shelters if no branches were in the right spot. probably used them for packs and stuff too.

Oh Lars! Something I know about first hand - balsam sap on burns. Fantastic! Scalded my hand with boiling water at last summers Karamat course. Kelly Harleton whipped out the balam tree - pop the balam blisters and plaster that stuff on liberally, dress with anything fluffy - cattail, milkweed fluff etc and leave alone. Looks ugly as hell, and it'll get dirty, but just leave it and let it wear off on its own. It works. Keep applying as the blisters open up or whatever. Burn sensation was gone in 5 min - ugly dirty furry hand for four or five days, but no scarring or pink skin etc. Live and learn! RIP Mors.

I used to be an arborist in SE United States. We would drill through oak trees to install a bolt to secure split trunks. The tree grows around the hardware. To be extra safe you can spray insecticide on a wound.. but with resinous trees you don’t have to do that.

We use fir for throat illness here in Slovenia 🇸🇮 as well. You can also make a sirup out of it. We take young shoots in the spring and then you put them in a glass jar, mix with sugar and put it in sun for a few months. You end up with a very sweet, somewhat liquorish sirup, which is great for flus and colds and such illnesses. Bonus tip: you put that fir sirup in some schnapps (brandy, vodka) and leave it for a month or two. Awesome, very tasty drink

@Takman74 3 года назад

Balsam fir is native to Canada as well and looks much the same as what you have in your location. Most people here hate these trees because of their resin sap. It sticks to everything and makes a huge mess on your clothing, chainsaws and gloves. Here we use black spruce tips in the same format that you use Balsam. We harvest the fresh bright green tips off the spruce and brew that as tea. It has the same properties as balsam. What you call Lartch, we call it Tamarak. It burns very hot due to the resins in it. In Canada tamarak is harvested and the resin is refined into turpentine.
