Finding Water in the Desert | Primal Survivor

the riverbed is bone-dry but the trees
are still alive so that means that
there’s still water here somewhere and
if you pay enough attention the desert
will show you where to look
[Music]
I’m just looking at these four leaf
ferns here there’s more green of this
plant than I’ve seen anywhere else so
might be promising this vegetation could
be the X on a hidden treasure map I know
that this plant needs a lot of water so
for it to be alive there has to be a
water source just below the surface yeah
there must be some sort of spring
because I know that the water table in
this rivers got to be lower than this
yeah that is wet mud for sure
oh yeah it’s in there like that water oh
this is good this is good and it’s
really cold this is coming from
somewhere deep underground large sand
grains like these hold nearly twice as
much water as fine sand it’s an
incredible find and it’ll keep me out of
danger for a few more hours it’s getting
really easy to dig now oh yeah there’s
water yep nice muddy water but it’s
water Oh what this cloth since this
spring comes from deep underground it’s
not likely to be contaminated by animal
waste or flying insects carrying
diseases making it my best option for
drinking it’s gritty water but this is
this is great I am really happy with
what I got I may not find any more water
today
so I need to make the most of this
basically I’m held hostage to this water
hole until I get my fill of water as
much as I can drink because I don’t know
if I’ll be this lucky as I keep moving
on
