00:00:23,190 --> 00:00:24,367 I'm really, really fortunate enough 9 00:00:24,391 --> 00:00:28,028 to get a full-size adult beaver. 10 00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:31,808 This gives me food security. 11 00:00:31,832 --> 00:00:34,077 Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God. 12 00:00:34,101 --> 00:00:37,814 Now more than ever, I can say I'm a hunter. 13 00:00:37,838 --> 00:00:40,216 We're gonna get moved in to this ivrulik. 14 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,852 I'm most afraid of never seeing my family again. 15 00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:46,089 I know there are dangers on this land 16 00:00:46,113 --> 00:00:48,458 and that I may never return home. 17 00:00:48,482 --> 00:00:50,093 Beautiful in here. 18 00:00:50,117 --> 00:00:52,295 Things were feeling really good, 19 00:00:52,319 --> 00:00:55,331 and then I decided to build this tepee. 20 00:00:55,355 --> 00:00:57,300 I just feel like I've got nothing, 21 00:00:57,324 --> 00:01:00,227 nothing in the tank. 22 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,595 I'm officially tapping out. 23 00:01:38,398 --> 00:01:41,200 We're going to be working on the wood stove. 24 00:01:50,210 --> 00:01:52,446 The chimney's looking good. 25 00:01:55,349 --> 00:01:59,987 There's just a cool, old Iñupiat song 26 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,022 that has a story to it too. 27 00:02:02,155 --> 00:02:05,568 It puts my two younger babies to sleep every time I sing it, 28 00:02:05,592 --> 00:02:08,338 so it's a really special song. 29 00:02:08,362 --> 00:02:11,608 And the story is of a old man 30 00:02:11,632 --> 00:02:13,009 who looks outside of his window, 31 00:02:13,033 --> 00:02:15,869 and he sees a rabbit being hunted. 32 00:02:16,003 --> 00:02:19,849 The rabbit comes to the old man's door and knocks. 33 00:02:19,873 --> 00:02:25,512 The old man lets the rabbit inside and takes care of him. 34 00:02:25,646 --> 00:02:27,780 And the song goes... 35 00:02:58,345 --> 00:03:02,049 And that's a... that's a Iñupiat song. 36 00:03:04,751 --> 00:03:09,388 So yeah, we'll get to work on the wood stove. 37 00:03:13,794 --> 00:03:17,097 I think I spent as much time working on the chimney 38 00:03:17,230 --> 00:03:20,810 as the entire shelter, to be honest. 39 00:03:20,834 --> 00:03:22,378 Okay. 40 00:03:22,402 --> 00:03:26,073 We lost about half the mud just walking up here. 41 00:03:27,674 --> 00:03:31,911 Try to fill these holes best we can. 42 00:03:33,980 --> 00:03:39,219 My shelter is working just the way as I had hoped. 43 00:03:39,352 --> 00:03:42,765 It's keeping me dry, keeping me warm. 44 00:03:42,789 --> 00:03:45,935 But winter is coming fast, 45 00:03:45,959 --> 00:03:48,971 and the cold will come with that. 46 00:03:48,995 --> 00:03:54,410 And I realize, without having a fire in my shelter, 47 00:03:54,434 --> 00:03:57,380 it's not going to be warm enough 48 00:03:57,404 --> 00:03:59,816 going into the cold season. 49 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,517 Looking great, man. 50 00:04:01,541 --> 00:04:03,686 I know that, with

back portion to do, 54 00:04:11,184 --> 00:04:13,496 and I gotta mud that outside wall 55 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,499 and then put mud patties on the bottom, and it's done, 56 00:04:16,523 --> 00:04:18,157 and I could get a fire going. 57 00:04:19,793 --> 00:04:21,437 This is one of the first things 58 00:04:21,461 --> 00:04:25,608 that makes me realize I'm really alone out here. 59 00:04:25,632 --> 00:04:29,412 I can't just send a photo of my shelter to my wife. 60 00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:33,416 And this can be a difficult thing to do, 61 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,419 living out here alone, not being able to show 62 00:04:36,443 --> 00:04:39,311 the ones you love your accomplishments. 63 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,659 My wife, the love of my life. 64 00:04:43,683 -->

like this 209 00:14:34,941 --> 00:14:36,309 like it was swimming. 210 00:14:41,514 --> 00:14:43,926 What a greasy move, Mother Nature. 211 00:14:43,950 --> 00:14:45,484 What a greasy move. 212 00:14:47,086 --> 00:14:49,422 Time to go for a hike, 213 00:14:49,555 --> 00:14:53,168 see if there's any tracks that way. 214 00:14:53,192 --> 00:14:55,260 Ah, that was dirty. 215 00:15:26,526 --> 00:15:28,327 Holy. 216 00:15:37,303 --> 00:15:39,372 Good thing I left that running, eh? 217 00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:43,118 Damn. 218 00:15:43,142 --> 00:15:44,510 He's a lynx. 219 00:15:44,644 --> 00:15:46,044 I gotta trap this bugger. 220 00:15:49,482 --> 00:15:53,695 If I can get him, you know, that's actual meat. 221 00:15:53,719 --> 00:15:56,521 A pound a day, that's 20, 30 days. 222 00:15:57,590 --> 00:16:00,402 And he followed my tracks. 223 00:16:00,426 --> 00:16:01,603 Here's my track. 224 00:16:01,627 --> 00:16:03,539 There's his track. 225 00:16:03,563 --> 00:16:06,232 My track, his track. 226 00:16:06,365 --> 00:16:07,999 This little bugger. 227 00:16:09,635 --> 00:16:11,803 There's his tracks there again, probably. 228 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,050 See? 229 00:16:15,074 --> 00:16:18,921 This mother gunner... he runs my fish line. 230 00:16:18,945 --> 00:16:23,058 Man, I need to kill that thing and eat him. 231 00:16:23,082 --> 00:16:28,163 Operation snares are coming. 232 00:16:28,187 --> 00:16:32,901 For the lynx, you have to use five-strand snares. 233 00:16:32,925 --> 00:16:34,759 So we got to make a couple. 234 00:16:39,632 --> 00:16:44,069 Pull 'em tight, wrap 'em around your pliers. 235 00:16:48,641 --> 00:16:51,653 It's like everything is against me right now. 236 00:16:51,677 --> 00:16:54,756 I'm gonna hopefully snare this lynx so I can eat him. 237 00:16:54,780 --> 00:16:58,093 It's looking grim, but I'll have to make this work. 238 00:16:58,117 --> 00:17:00,295 This is all I have. 239 00:17:00,319 --> 00:17:03,755 I just want to win so damn bad. 240 00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,973 Man. 241 00:17:10,997 --> 00:17:12,831 He's got another thing coming. 242 00:17:18,604 --> 00:17:21,016 You can see there's a little bit of a trail here, 243 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,853 and I've seen his tracks walk right through here. 244 00:17:24,877 --> 00:17:26,145 I don't like failing. 245 00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:27,890 There's lots of things I've quit 246 00:17:27,914 --> 00:17:30,292 and failed in my life, and I don't like it. 247 00:17:30,316 --> 00:17:32,151 But right now, I don't think I'm failing. 248 00:17:32,285 --> 00:17:33,729 I think there's setbacks. 249 00:17:33,753 --> 00:17:36,131 I knew there was gonna be issues out here. 250 00:17:36,155 --> 00:17:38,767 I just need to find the solutions. 251 00:17:38,791 --> 00:17:42,938 I won't quit, but I don't want to starve, either. 252 00:17:42,962 --> 00:17:45,974 And now I'm starting to think about Travis. 253 00:17:45,998 --> 00:17:49,011 He made me promise him that if I got on the show, 254 00:17:49,035 --> 00:17:50,703 that I would not quit. 255 00:17:50,836 --> 00:17:53,682 He says, anything that's worth doing has got to be hard. 256 00:17:53,706 --> 00:17:57,085 So I want to fulfill that promise I made to him. 257 00:17:57,109 --> 00:18:01,690 And it gives me the extra leg I need to keep going. 258 00:18:01,714 --> 00:18:03,759 We've got a couple of those out. 259 00:18:03,783 --> 00:18:06,094 So if I was Mr. Lynx, I'd be walking 260 00:18:06,118 --> 00:18:07,963 right through this path 261 00:18:07,987 --> 00:18:11,990 and right into the net... kaboom! 262 00:18:13,025 --> 00:18:15,227 We gon' get you. 263 00:18:35,514 --> 00:18:38,184 It's finally winter! 264 00:18:38,317 --> 00:18:40,729 It is snowing. 265 00:18:40,753 --> 00:18:41,964 And it's not just a light snow. 266 00:18:41,988 --> 00:18:44,624 It is snow-snow. 267 00:18:44,757 --> 00:18:49,972 So I can see the animal trails, potentially. 268 00:18:49,996 --> 00:18:51,974 I'm gonna go check the gill net. 269 00:18:51,998 --> 00:18:54,209 On our way, I'll check out the trails. 270 00:18:54,233 --> 00:18:56,244 I just did not think that I'd be getting out 271 00:18:56,268 --> 00:18:57,836 my winter gear this early. 272 00:18:59,672 --> 00:19:02,107 Oh, I really thought I had more time. 273 00:19:05,044 --> 00:19:06,922 Wow. 274 00:19:06,946 --> 00:19:09,658 A lot of activity through here right now. 275 00:19:09,682 --> 00:19:14,353 Okay, we have beaver slide. 276 00:19:15,955 --> 00:19:17,132 It's a beaver. 277 00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:19,225 Interesting. 278 00:19:19,358 --> 00:19:23,939 It looks like I'm sharing my shoreline with a beaver. 279 00:19:23,963 --> 00:19:26,808 I hope that's not going to be a problem. 280 00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:28,467 Check my gill net. 281 00:19:35,875 --> 00:19:39,511 Nope, nothing. 282 00:19:45,151 --> 00:19:48,920 Damn beaver... it's scaring the fish in this river. 283 00:19:57,196 --> 00:19:59,998 Okay, just gotta keep trying. 284 00:20:15,748 --> 00:20:21,320 I'm open to the wisdom and the answers that she has. 285 00:20:27,793 --> 00:20:30,605 I really thought the net was gonna work. 286 00:20:30,629 --> 00:20:32,630 It still might. 287 00:20:36,635 --> 00:20:39,404 Fish was my biggest resource of fat. 288 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,474 But there's also beaver. 289 00:20:46,679 --> 00:20:48,690 Maybe my obstacle isn't fish. 290 00:20:48,714 --> 00:20:50,482 My obstacle is fat. 291 00:20:52,551 --> 00:20:56,765 Maybe it doesn't matter if I catch fish or not, 292 00:20:56,789 --> 00:20:58,957 as long as I catch fat. 293 00:21:02,828 --> 00:21:05,196 All right, we got to shift gears. 294 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,634 I'm going for the beaver. 295 00:21:44,103 --> 00:21:45,013 Uvlaalluataq. 296 00:21:45,037 --> 00:21:47,106 Good morning. 297 00:21:47,239 --> 00:21:50,519 I moved my head down to this side, 298 00:21:50,543 --> 00:21:54,346 next to the fire pit, 299 00:21:54,480 --> 00:22:00,529 and slept really well last night, really warm. 300 00:22:00,553 --> 00:22:04,824 So this morning, I'm going out hunting for moose and tuttu. 301 00:22:04,957 --> 00:22:07,626 I don't want to wind down to not having any food 302 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,006 and be like, crap, what do I do? 303 00:22:11,030 --> 00:22:16,067 So hopefully I can add to that food cache this morning. 304 00:22:20,105 --> 00:22:24,909 It snowed, but the snowfall has melted. 305 00:22:26,512 --> 00:22:28,757 I'm disappointed because 306 00:22:28,781 --> 00:22:31,983 tracks are more visible in the snow. 307 00:22:33,886 --> 00:22:36,498 It's important for me to explore this land 308 00:22:36,522 --> 00:22:39,734 because I need to find moose. 309 00:22:39,758 --> 00:22:43,605 I need to find tuttu, caribou, so I can harvest them, 310 00:22:43,629 --> 00:22:46,631 and that can help me through the long winter ahead. 311 00:22:48,033 --> 00:22:52,414 My long-term food source is going to be big game. 312 00:22:52,438 --> 00:22:56,074 So I need to try and be quiet. 313 00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:04,292 My hunting strategy on this hike 314 00:23:04,316 --> 00:23:09,622 is to find an animal walking, eating, 315 00:23:09,755 --> 00:23:11,956 and be able to have a chance to harvest it. 316 00:23:14,627 --> 00:23:18,373 It's been weeks that I haven't seen my family. 317 00:23:18,397 --> 00:23:20,165 That's a big deal to me. 318 00:23:26,906 --> 00:23:28,850 Every day missed is 319 00:23:28,874 --> 00:23:32,654 a day of their childhood that I'm missing. 320 00:23:32,678 --> 00:23:34,013 They're only gonna be kids once. 321 00:23:43,789 --> 00:23:47,602 I find myself out in nature alone a lot, 322 00:23:47,626 --> 00:23:49,771 but sometimes that's just because 323 00:23:49,795 --> 00:23:51,430 I need to provide meat for my family. 324 00:23:53,999 --> 00:23:56,645 I enjoy it, but I enjoy it more 325 00:23:56,669 --> 00:23:59,538 when I'm able to teach my kids those things. 326 00:23:59,672 --> 00:24:01,616 When they're out there with me, 327 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,084 it's, like, an amazing difference. 328 00:24:03,108 --> 00:24:05,086 It's so much fun. 329 00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:07,322 I'm tired. 330 00:24:07,346 --> 00:24:08,881 Man, I'm tired. 331 00:24:11,951 --> 00:24:13,953 I feel like I'm out there doing those things 332 00:24:14,086 --> 00:24:17,565 for more than just survival because we need meat. 333 00:24:17,589 --> 00:24:20,993 I'm out there to pass all this knowledge on to my children. 334 00:24:25,230 --> 00:24:28,867 No signs of any animals yet. 335 00:24:29,001 --> 00:24:34,449 Gassed out and tired, so gonna be heading back. 336 00:24:34,473 --> 00:24:36,651 Check the ukalliatchiaq snares on the way back. 337 00:24:36,675 --> 00:24:38,910 Maybe there's something in there. 338 00:24:48,954 --> 00:24:50,788 No signs of any rabbit. 339 00:24:56,028 --> 00:24:57,772 Maybe I'll come from the top down, 340 00:24:57,796 --> 00:25:04,446 and I'll take four of these strands of paracord. 341 00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:05,837 What I like to do is make a loop. 342 00:25:08,107 --> 00:25:14,713 A lot of energy used with... 343 00:25:14,847 --> 00:25:19,461 you know, didn't get anything out of it. 344 00:25:19,485 --> 00:25:21,253 Yeah, that ain't going nowhere. 345 00:25:36,435 --> 00:25:37,802 Whoa! 346 00:25:56,422 --> 00:25:57,955 Man. 347 00:26:02,995 --> 00:26:04,596 Oh. 348 00:26:07,866 --> 00:26:10,812 That was a bad faint. 349 00:26:10,836 --> 00:26:13,214 Maybe high blood pressure, low blood pressure. 350 00:26:13,238 --> 00:26:15,617 I don't know. 351 00:26:15,641 --> 00:26:17,109 Man, not good. 352 00:26:19,044 --> 00:26:20,321 It's a good thing I wasn't on the other side 353 00:26:20,345 --> 00:26:22,514 of that steep river bank here. 354 00:26:24,316 --> 00:26:25,350 Not good. 355 00:26:29,555 --> 00:26:32,957 You gotta eat meat and drink water. 356 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,034 Don't know what's going on. 357 00:26:44,436 --> 00:26:46,614 My body might be hungry 358 00:26:46,638 --> 00:26:49,684 and possibly a little dehydrated, 359 00:26:49,708 --> 00:26:53,021 but I've never experienced either. 360 00:26:53,045 --> 00:26:55,581 Got our whitefish stomach here. 361 00:26:55,714 --> 00:26:58,693 We're gonna put it in the pot of boiling water, 362 00:26:58,717 --> 00:27:00,261 which has a grouse in it. 363 00:27:00,285 --> 00:27:02,897 But we'll just leave it in for a few minutes. 364 00:27:02,921 --> 00:27:04,389 Really looking forward to this. 365 00:27:04,523 --> 00:27:06,592 This is a taste of home right here. 366 00:27:08,393 --> 00:27:10,138 Totally lost consciousness. 367 00:27:10,162 --> 00:27:12,574 Felt like I was dead, I guess. 368 00:27:12,598 --> 00:27:15,534 I mean, felt like I didn't exist. 369 00:27:15,667 --> 00:27:19,614 Once I could see where I was, I was like, okay, I'm here. 370 00:27:19,638 --> 00:27:24,018 But I didn't know where I was until I had to think about it. 371 00:27:24,042 --> 00:27:26,043 It was crazy. 372 00:27:28,046 --> 00:27:29,791 What scares me most about that 373 00:27:29,815 --> 00:27:34,129 is my children not having a father, 374 00:27:34,153 --> 00:27:37,332 missing out on events of their lives, 375 00:27:37,356 --> 00:27:39,767 not being there for them. 376 00:27:39,791 --> 00:27:41,769 That's important to me because I didn't have 377 00:27:41,793 --> 00:27:43,961 a lot of those things, so I know how it feels. 378 00:27:45,998 --> 00:27:47,976 I know that I said that 379 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,411 I'm willing to die to win this, 380 00:27:50,435 --> 00:27:55,650 but this experience has given me a different mindset. 381 00:27:55,674 --> 00:27:58,620 Winning this competition means I can spend time 382 00:27:58,644 --> 00:28:00,855 with my family, as much time as I can, 383 00:28:00,879 --> 00:28:03,615 by paying that mortgage off. 384 00:28:03,749 --> 00:28:05,260 I might not have to work a full-time job. 385 00:28:05,284 --> 00:28:06,961 Maybe I could do a part-time job 386 00:28:06,985 --> 00:28:09,764 and have more time with my kids. 387 00:28:09,788 --> 00:28:12,333 I just need to take care of myself better, 388 00:28:12,357 --> 00:28:16,561 because I know if I do, I can win this thing. 389 00:28:18,797 --> 00:28:20,008 Okay, here we go. 390 00:28:20,032 --> 00:28:21,609 Whitefish stomach... look at that. 391 00:28:21,633 --> 00:28:22,677 Piping hot, baby. 392 00:28:22,701 --> 00:28:24,002 Let's see how it tastes. 393 00:28:29,474 --> 00:28:31,243 Mmm, my God. 394 00:28:35,247 --> 00:28:39,284 Give me 100 more of those, please. 395 00:28:59,838 --> 00:29:01,006 I got it. 396 00:29:07,312 --> 00:29:12,117 Sorry, buddy, for this, and thank you for your meat. 397 00:29:14,886 --> 00:29:16,622 I appreciate it. 398 00:29:19,758 --> 00:29:21,769 Actually, I never really bow-hunted before, 399 00:29:21,793 --> 00:29:24,939 but at least, for small game, 400 00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:27,542 working quite well so far. 401 00:29:27,566 --> 00:29:32,904 I caught, so far, five squirrels with a bow, 402 00:29:33,038 --> 00:29:35,850 which is actually quite good. 403 00:29:35,874 --> 00:29:39,911 But I wish I would be getting something bigger, 404 00:29:40,045 --> 00:29:45,760 and then I wouldn't have to take so many small lives. 405 00:29:45,784 --> 00:29:48,129 That's how it is. 406 00:29:48,153 --> 00:29:54,502 I think about, for example, animals that eat zooplankton. 407 00:29:54,526 --> 00:29:58,339 They eat, like, thousands and millions of them, 408 00:29:58,363 --> 00:30:02,867 taking so many lives of small animals... 409 00:30:06,204 --> 00:30:10,018 While, yeah, hunting something big, you take only one life. 410 00:30:10,042 --> 00:30:12,887 But... 411 00:30:12,911 --> 00:30:17,749 I don't know if you can measure stuff in this way. 412 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,724 Anyway, enough of philosophy. 413 00:30:27,159 --> 00:30:30,428 It's time for shelter, finally. 414 00:30:36,001 --> 00:30:42,107 I'm going to cut small spruce to build the frame 415 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,745 and dig the hole here and make A-frame over it, 416 00:30:46,878 --> 00:30:49,880 so where this smoke is coming here, approximately. 417 00:30:53,385 --> 00:30:56,331 My focus was just food, 418 00:30:56,355 --> 00:30:59,801 and so I think I'm the last participant 419 00:30:59,825 --> 00:31:03,462 who started making permanent shelter. 420 00:31:03,595 --> 00:31:06,607 But now I think I'm in quite good position, 421 00:31:06,631 --> 00:31:12,213 so I know I need to start working very hard 422 00:31:12,237 --> 00:31:16,040 and get this done before winter really starts to come. 423 00:31:17,909 --> 00:31:21,712 I'm going to make dugout type of shelter. 424 00:31:23,548 --> 00:31:26,260 It's actually a traditional Slavic shelter 425 00:31:26,284 --> 00:31:27,952 called zemlyanka. 426 00:31:29,955 --> 00:31:34,569 This is A-frame, and walls are actually excavated. 427 00:31:34,593 --> 00:31:36,861 So it's in the ground, pretty much. 428 00:31:38,196 --> 00:31:39,640 That's perfect. 429 00:31:39,664 --> 00:31:42,110 In the ground, covered with tarp... 430 00:31:42,134 --> 00:31:44,870 and that's one of the best protections against wind. 431 00:31:47,038 --> 00:31:49,083 Comparingly to digging in the soil, 432 00:31:49,107 --> 00:31:52,854 you can never make walls airtight. 433 00:31:52,878 --> 00:31:55,723 Especially for so cold environment, 434 00:31:55,747 --> 00:31:57,748 I think this is the best way to go. 435 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,922 What the is this? 436 00:32:09,528 --> 00:32:11,162 Permafrost. 437 00:32:13,565 --> 00:32:14,965 Crap. 438 00:32:16,301 --> 00:32:18,636 I thought it would be deeper here. 439 00:32:20,005 --> 00:32:22,440 Ah,. 440 00:32:31,716 --> 00:32:34,295 I'm starting to think if I should move 441 00:32:34,319 --> 00:32:36,921 and look for another location. 442 00:32:38,356 --> 00:32:40,792 Damn it. 443 00:32:40,926 --> 00:32:43,404 Damn it, damn it. 444 00:32:43,428 --> 00:32:47,608 Permafrost, it's really difficult to dig, 445 00:32:47,632 --> 00:32:50,278 and it's basically like digging in ice. 446 00:32:50,302 --> 00:32:51,612 It's getting cold. 447 00:32:51,636 --> 00:32:53,981 I will put my jacket on. 448 00:32:54,005 --> 00:32:56,884 So you have to use a lot of force. 449 00:32:56,908 --> 00:32:59,520 And another problem is, it's always frozen, 450 00:32:59,544 --> 00:33:03,858 so that will keep my shelter cold. 451 00:33:03,882 --> 00:33:05,893 But on the other hand, 452 00:33:05,917 --> 00:33:08,586 this location is one of the best locations. 453 00:33:09,721 --> 00:33:11,523 Despite permafrost, I think I'm staying here 454 00:33:12,824 --> 00:33:14,664 and rather putting more effort to make it work. 455 00:33:33,912 --> 00:33:35,923 Getting this smoker going, 456 00:33:35,947 --> 00:33:37,915 start rendering the beaver fat as well. 457 00:33:40,519 --> 00:33:42,553 That fat's gonna need a fair while to render down. 458 00:33:50,996 --> 00:33:53,164 I think my pot is ready... 459 00:33:58,370 --> 00:33:59,814 I'm sure you see that. 460 00:33:59,838 --> 00:34:01,182 Maybe not. 461 00:34:01,206 --> 00:34:05,310 But that is liquid gold. 462 00:34:05,443 --> 00:34:07,045 You'll see it when I pour it. 463 00:34:10,748 --> 00:34:12,917 That took a long time to render down. 464 00:34:16,454 --> 00:34:18,365 I was up till God knows what time 465 00:34:18,389 --> 00:34:20,101 this morning just trying to render 466 00:34:20,125 --> 00:34:22,269 and get that first batch done. 467 00:34:22,293 --> 00:34:24,805 I got a container that I fortunately found. 468 00:34:24,829 --> 00:34:26,240 I got a second container that I also found. 469 00:34:26,264 --> 00:34:28,376 So the fat's gonna go into those. 470 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,179 They're the best and safest long-term storage that I have. 471 00:34:32,203 --> 00:34:33,804 Oh, yeah. 472 00:34:37,242 --> 00:34:38,310 Kind of looks like rust. 473 00:34:42,514 --> 00:34:45,526 I have enough fat still to render 474 00:34:45,550 --> 00:34:47,152 to fill this whole entire thing up. 475 00:34:48,753 --> 00:34:51,221 Anyway, I'm gonna go check trap lines. 476 00:34:55,994 --> 00:34:58,372 There's a lot of meat on that beaver, 477 00:34:58,396 --> 00:35:01,008 but the biggest thing was the fat. 478 00:35:01,032 --> 00:35:05,479 No time for fancy shots for trap line. 479 00:35:05,503 --> 00:35:10,284 It's just get out, see what she got, 480 00:35:10,308 --> 00:35:11,509 get back. 481 00:35:12,911 --> 00:35:14,512 I'm trying really hard to be able 482 00:35:14,646 --> 00:35:16,490 to dry as much as possible, 483 00:35:16,514 --> 00:35:20,085 just to try and make it last as long as I can. 484 00:35:22,754 --> 00:35:25,132 But just with the fat alone, 485 00:35:25,156 --> 00:35:28,336 there's probably 15,000 to 20,000 calories there. 486 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,038 There's a lot of fat. 487 00:35:31,062 --> 00:35:34,065 Supplement that with the other foods that I got coming in... 488 00:35:34,199 --> 00:35:35,799 yeah, there's a lot of food. 489 00:35:38,236 --> 00:35:41,106 Got myself a snowshoe hare. 490 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,651 Whoa. 491 00:35:43,675 --> 00:35:47,712 I got
