(gunshots echoing)
(foot steps in the snow)
- That's the last one.
- [Grayson] Little cave you made sweetie.
- Yeah, lot's of wood now.
- [Grayson] With all the nice green tree leaves
underneath to keep the logs up off the ground,
up off the snow, so we can keep our wood dry.
Starting the fire now sweetie.
Try right here, right here, around the front.
(digging snow)
(whacking)
And the final step will be
just a piece of EVA foam there, so we don't get our bums cold
as we sit here and make our fire.
Another campfire system, I just wanted to explain here,
that we came up with recently
is just underneath we're gonna have our,
we're gonna put our wood here, this is where the fire's
gonna be, but we've got this nice slab of rock
to stop the snow underneath melting,
just to keep the campfire smoke free.
And there's a new campfire grill
from Purcell Trench in America, professionally made
to replace my old DIY grill.
So just a couple of other small rocks
there on the side to balance it all,
and this big boulder to reflect the heat back.
And hopefully the snow on top won't melt,
'cause we don't want water dripping down into our campfire.
Pretty confident that that snow on top won't melt
just so long as we keep the fire
nice and gently cooking.
There's the tripod and the old dry wood cave
that Christina put together.
And over there is the tent.
Let's have a quick look at the tent,
just drying out, we've been here a few nights already.
Just keeping the door open on the tent so it can dry out.
And today is a perfect blue sky day,
perfect conditions for drying out your equipment.
Let's just take a quick step down here,
have a look at the clothesline system.
There she is, all the gear drying out,
just capturing a bit of sunlight.
Home sweet home for the next few nights,
and the last few nights.
You ready?
- [Christina] Barbecue.
- [Grayson] So there's the sausages,
just pre-boiling before we flame grill them.
Christina's just stirring the sausages a bit
so they don't stick to the bottom of the titanium pot.
- [Christina] It is already boil.
- [Grayson] There's the peas going in.
Sausages boiled yet sweetie?
- Not yet.
Yeah.
- [Grayson] What do you think, they're ready?
- Yeah.
(air blowing on campfire)
- [Grayson] Using the snow to clean the pot sweetie?
- Yeah.
Look, it's nice now.
(snow scraping)
- [Grayson] Beautiful, beautiful.
Stop eating the sausages.
- [Christina] Hungry.
- [Grayson] Flame grilled sausages campers.
In the snow.
(laughs)
Beautiful, that's enough holes sweetie, enough holes, yeah.
(chuckles)
(meat sizzling)
- Ha ha ha ha
Look at that one there, nice and black huh, nice and crispy.
- Yes.
(meat sizzling)
(metal clanking)
- [Grayson] More wood sweetie?
- Yeah.
- [Grayson] There's the sausages.
Nice and black and crispy.
And the peas just about ready.
Have a quick look at the mashed potato campers.
There it is, the instant mash,
so we'll just stick the peas in there in a moment.
Christina's just made a little table
for the dinner plate.
- [Christina] It's ready.
- [Grayson] You're draining the peas out sweetie?
- Yes.
- [Grayson] As you can see there's a little bit of snow
in the bottom of my plate, that's because
I was using the snow to wash the plate out before.
Snow can be quite an abrasive cleaning agent.
The peas going into the mash, oh yeah.
Beautiful, oh yeah.
How much, how much?
- [Christina] It's enough, this one's yeah?
- [Grayson] That's probably enough, yeah it's enough.
How many sausages?
- [Christina] How many sausage you want?
- [Grayson] Three?
- [Christina] Three for you because I eat already mine.
- [Grayson] One more.
There's my dinner campers.
Bangers and mash potato in the Australian bush.
(camera bumping)
Having a bit of trouble getting the camera
in a good position for the sunlight.
Thanks for joining us on this feast.
Here's that sausage.
What's your favorite sweetie, the sausages or the mash?
- [Christina] Same.
Perfect yours huh.
(snow scraping under feet)
(blowing air)
- Giant marshmallow campers, look at that.
Beautiful.
Mmm, yeah.
These marshmallows are about two inches in diameter.
- [Christina] Oh look.
(laughter)
Mmm yummy.
(laughter)
(dramatic rhythmic music)
