The Perfect Camp Fire Pit

How do you make the perfect camp fire pit? In this video I'll show you how.

Thanks for the simplicity of this video. This is my first project on our property since my husband passed a year ago. We kept talking about getting to it, but his illness got in the way. I am finally at the point where I can continue where we left off from our plan. Just a part of the healing process now. I figure the fire pit will be done by his birthday in May. My Dave and I worked well together, a lot like you and Brooke do. Give God thanks everyday for that blessing. I still do, I thank Him we had it for almost 40 yrs together that way.♥

You got it right Dave, I agree, every memory I have of camping had rocks around the fire pit. It’s timeless. There is a lot of fire proof material you can use and it’s all good, but rocks around the fire pit with a cup of coffee, or a cold brew is perfection.

You have a great voice for story telling. So calm and soothing.

You know Dave being here in Scotland we don’t have this concept of a real woodsman but I just love the concept and since we don’t have the spatial wilderness you guys seem to have, watching Bush radical allows my mind to wander and escape to this fantastic wonderland you guys enjoy. I am so in awe. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⭐️❤️

In Dances with Wolves, the elder Sioux Ten Bears said that, "at his age, there's nothing better than a good fire". I'm not that old, but I have to agree with him. Simple expectations, simple pleasures; keys to good living. Thanks Dave, hope you get to come back up to AK this summer. Peace to you & Brooke from Delta.

Nothing better than a warm fire and people of your tribe to make a night memorable.
Well done, Best-Jim snd Tara

Since I'm housebound and can no longer enjoy these things, even a less than 5 minute video of you making a campfire pit is fun. Thank you!

I still could listen to you all day! Great advice for making a fire pit! Love the idea of placing flat rocks for cooking too. All great ideas! Thanks for taking us along Dave! God’s blessings to you, Brooke, and family!❤

I've lived in my property for 11 years, and for 11 years I've been talking about putting a fire pit out back. But, somewhere in the back of my brain was a voice telling me that it's hard to get them right. You removed every one of those obstacles, and simplified it down to a few easy steps. Thank you!

The only time I feel relaxed is when I watch Brooke's and your videos. Keep em coming!

"the perfect campfire pit is the one you have, in the place that you put it." this is so true for so many things...everybody worries about getting "the best [insert item here]" when they should just enjoy what they have that works for them.

Campfire philosophy 101 🧡🔥❤️ I have to say my daughter and I built a pretty awesome campfire pit about 6 years ago...the great thing about stone...no rust, no rot. That pit is as good as new but has a lot of fun history attached to it now!

[WIZ-IN-PA]

It's all about the B roll. 😀 Great content, great voice over narration. Dave, you put together perfect videos in my book!

As you shown it lit, , I smelled the great pine wood burning and it Brought back many camp you

This is the most high-quality youtube tutorial I have ever seen. I love it.

However, you do want to ensure the area around the circumference of the pit is inflammable in case any sparks fly out.

You're abolutely right Dave. I left Scouting about 10 years ago but I still cherish many fond memories of campfires... the friendships, the songs, the heat of the fires and the inevitably way-too-hot campfire soup 😁

[charlieoglesby]

I love you and your wife's videos. The short and the longer ones. Keep'em coming. Be radical ❤

I've been making firepits out of rocks. Then one day I thought, I'm gonna get that little iron firepit that everyone in suburbia has, that I've been wanting. Eh.
It collects water. The ash cover rusted in a few weeks. And then I stopped sitting by the fire.
That thing wasn't as good as the rocks.
Im going back to rocks and back to enjoying my fires.
You just made me think what happened.
Keep keepin' it real, Dave. 👍

This is my favorite fire pit instructional ! Yesterday we kayaked to a spoiler island in the Gulf of Mexico. On the island was a stone fire pit that someone had crafted out of the natural limestone rocks from the beach. Our boys had a blast burning fallen pine tree branches. It made me realize it doesn’t take much to build a beautiful fire pit. It’s all about the memories and the people we love.

Dave, you have a knack for story telling. You're easy to listen to and I enjoy watching you and your wife.
