Desert Survival: Cactus Water Container -Junkyard Fox

Revisiting a skill shown a few years back, I demonstrate how to make a water conatiner out of a prickly pear cactus pad. Not only does this method make a container that can stone-boil unsafe water, but the filling can also provide food or an herbal remedy.

NOTE: If your source of water is muddy or has a lot of debris, place a bandana or item of clothing, like a shirt over the mouth of the cactus container, to keep the larger debris out before stone boiling.

You, sir, are stepping your awesomeness game bud!

[Zepla]

This guy seems like the type of dude you'd just want to hang out with. So real and down to earth about things.

When we were youngsters we used to do horse back riding and camping in Peck Canyon with an old rancher and your knowledge and wisdom reminds me of my early days spending weekends with my family and friends listening to the old time rancher tell us tales of the southwest about mystery and adventure. We learned how to spot wildlife such as bobcats and learning the lay of the land .

[akeeperofoddknowledge]

James, you have much wisdom (not just knowledge) for such a young man!

Been binge-watching your channel since I discovered it a few days ago. Love your videos!
Keep them coming, young man!

[EvA-jirz]

I absolutely enjoy videos where you can see the person actually understands the topic and cares about the quality of the video . He talks to the viewer politely and explains things very well . Thank you.

[PixelBoyMiner]

Why am I watching this I've gone camping like twice

[jeff]

Classic ! Very well done--explained perfectly. And appreciated that there was no fluff here...as so many of us are time constrained these days

[skepticbb]

My wife says she would use it as a purse.

[HennyThyTrip-z]

It's 4am you just got done crying your eyes out you go on YouTube for some happy feelings *finds this video take a deep breath and says life is good

[jlen]

Thanks for the new video James. I'll rewatch one of your videos any day.

[yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

Guys like you are cool and nice to watch in the morning with a coffee and breakfast

[PyroNinja]

If you put a straps on some of those you could probably sell them as handmade purses on Etsy for some ridiculous price. lol

[botiwasboughtbythischannel]

You are a very sincere man. Sometimes that's all it takes to inspire the many. Thank you.

[xppl]

I'm watching this in case I find a teacher with terminal cancer that wants to make blue meth with me in the desert and our camper dies out.

[athernandez]

I'm not into survival or camping content, but I randomdly ran into this video and I gotta say: This is very well done. Props to you and your team, pal.

“Everything out here is out to stab you” sounds like desert prison

[jeffgenchi]

I am an Arizona Rat in the desert lol. I love that there is a channel dedicated to the type living environment I live in. Thanks for the great insight.

[beefknuckles]

I dunno why, but I see a dude with a hat like that giving me survival tips and I trust his tips immediately haha. Great info my man

[s.leemccauley]

Good survival video. Folks ought to pay attention. No one goes to the desert to find trouble...but it finds them all to often.
Great job in your presentation.
