Building a Snow Cave – Ray Mears Extreme Survival

Posted by Queuebot in Travel on February 6, 2009 at 8:52 am

While Bear Grylls may have all the charm and reckless abandon that we all love, everyone knows he doesn’t really do half the surviving he claims to on his show.
Ray Mears however has spent his life learning from the worlds Indigenous tribes, picking up skills and dedicating all his time to survival, so he knows a thing or two.

Here he demonstrates how to build a snow cave, which if necessary you could shelter in for weeks at a time until the weather cleared up enough to get to safety. Not many of us are likely to see that much snow any time soon, but its a great bit of knowledge to have.
