Hey it's Shawn Journey Alberta. Today I'm out in
Fish Creek Park with my friend Jesse.
We're going to cook up some food over
the fire here and then explore this
section of Fish Creek Park.
(Loud, deep voiced scream)
Did you hear that!?
I've got my hot dogs all ready to eat. I
think they should be pretty good. I've
never used these buns before. I got them from
the local grocery store near my house. Thought I'd
tried them out, so here we go.
Excellent! Excellent hot dog buns. I believe they
are Villagio Toscana extra soft sausage buns
They're really good
It's pretty good!
We finished eating our hotdogs and now
we're going to cook up some marshmallows
over the fire because like I've said in
many videos before you can't have a fire
without marshmallows.
You can see that
marshmallow there, that is a perfect
marshmallow. I don't like to brag but I
am the king of cooking marshmallows and
this one another crowning achievement
for me: Marshmallow King. Now if you were
out in the wilderness alone and all you
had was a little axe or a knife like
this, I found a little branch like this,
it's not a little branch it's a big branch
we could actually carve this into a
makeshift spear to do some kind of basic
hunting with maybe some kind of small birds
if you can find them. Another handy tip
if you're out in the bush and all you
have is a little knife or something
because you just make the axe like this.
You don't have to waste your knife
doing other things.
That's the finished result of my stick
carving. Okay I'm going to throw this my
makeshift spear right down this little
path here into the trees and see how far I
can throw it that way. So here we
go!
We've started exploring this area of
Fish Creek now that we put our food away.
We made sure that our fire was extinguished
all the way before we started heading
into the forest here. It's always
important to do. Actually we're coming to
Fish Creek right now like the water of Fish
Creek. It should be pretty cool!
All right so as we've been walking
around I found something that would
really help you start a fire if you were
lost in like the mountains or wooded areas
around Calgary or anywhere that's really
wooded. This kind of bark right here you
can see is great for starting fires because
it's usually been dried out by the Sun
you usually take a little bit off of the
trees but right where I am right here
there's tons of bark just laying around
everywhere and it's great to use to get
a fire started.
Ah!
Jesse and I have had a great time out
here today in Fish Creek Park roasting
some hot dogs over the fire and
marshmallows and it's been... I think
Jesse hurt himself back there ...it's also
been great wandering around this forested
area, running in around the little deer
trails and stuff... and Jesse's talking
to himself back there ...it's been great to
come out here and experience this area
I've never been in this specific section
Fish Creek. I can't remember what it's called offhand.
It will say right there on the screen
what it's called. It's been really great to come
out here today hopefully you've enjoyed
watching!
you
