In this video, I live for two days in a spring forest on a hillside near a small and quiet river. On the first day I got to the forest glade, set up a hammock, made a Dakota fire hole for cooking and boiling tea. Not far from the camp I found chaga - a birch mushroom. It was good, I was able to make healthy tea. The piece of mushroom was large and I decided to prepare it for drying and later use. I did not take water from the river - I need to clean the water through a filter. I used a simple and tree-safe method of harvesting birch sap - it's a very useful and healthy drink that doesn't need to be clean and can be drunk raw. And birch sap tea is very tasty. Later, I discovered a fresh fallen birch not far away. This is a lucky find. I made a table and a three-legged chair out of it. I removed the birch bark and left it to make a container. When the Dakota fire hole put was filled with coals, I began to cook smoked chicken. I used a cross stick as a suspension and lowered the chicken into the hole. After a while, a perfectly cooked piece of chicken was obtained with a pleasant smoked smell and a very mild taste. The second day gave me very warm weather. I cooked fried eggs with vegetables in a pan, had breakfast and proceeded to prepare the Chaga, removing the some dirt and breaking it into small pieces. Left to dry. Now it's time to make a container out of the birch bark I received yesterday. Everything is simple here - you need to remove the outer chalk layer and evenly cut two strips. Mark the holes and cut them with a knife. Connect the first strip of birch with the chalk side out and the second with the chalk side in. And insert one tube into another. I made the bottom and the lid from a piece of the same fallen birch. Ready. Now you can store chaga pieces in this natural container. Having rested for a while and drinking life-giving tea from chaga with birch sap, I packed my things, moved the forest chair and the table near the Dakota fire hole. I liked the place, I didn’t burn furniture and full up a hole, I will spend time here sometimes. Thank you for watching!
