Using only an ax and shovel, Cyprien Outdoor Adventures is meticulous about building each element of his survival shelter with precision. He’s true to bushcraft, using skills, knowledge, and understanding in order to survive and thrive in the natural environment.

First, he digs out a foundation hole, tying sticks and logs together, and wrapping the fireplace stones in mud. Then, he displays his skills by hand-crafting a perfectly square chimney and using the dead wood he tied together to fashion a roof hatch and door without any measuring tool. Last, he finishes it off with “landscaping” – strategically placing plants as camouflage and covering the roof with grass.
