With winter weather and subzero temperatures, getting lost in the wilderness in winter could be a deadly mistake. It's not uncommon to hear about a hunter or hiker getting lost in the wilderness and having to spend an unplanned night in the forest. Without proper gear or the knowledge to deal with cold weather and snow some don't survive. In this winter survival video I'll show a few survival skills to help get you through a cold night in the winter woods. I'll have no sleeping bag or tent. Aside from the winter clothing I have on, all I'll have to survive the night is a lighter, a multitool, and a small folding saw. I've also got a small metal canister for making tea and coffee (I mean, I'm not a total savage...).

If you're ever caught in a real-life wilderness survival situation like this, what you need to do to survive will depend heavily on the resources you have at your disposal. So, what I do here, in the Pacific Northwest, may be very different than what I'd need to do in another location. With that said, several of these survival skills can be applied in a variety of circumstances. This is real world whiteout survival!
