This quick wilderness survival skill video shows how to peel the bark off of a fallen Birch Bark Tree. The method could be applied to pretty much any type of tree that has a thick bark. Big slabs of tree bark like this are great for building an emergency survival shelter. The layers of bark do a great job at shedding water and keeping you dry!

This video discusses what can happen to a person when they go too long without sleep. It takes a look at several studies on sleep that were conducted by the military and hopefully goes to underscore the importance of sleep and enforcing good sleep habits after SHTF.
