How to Boil Water in the Ground

There is a chance that you would like to know how to survive in the wild and one of the things that you have to know what to do is how to boil water in the ground. This might seem ambitious to you but it can be done. Are you already curious to know how this can be possible?

Do remember that the main reason why it is important to know how to boil water on the ground is because you can use it to purify your water. Another good reason is because you can use water to cook when you would like to boil things instead of roasting them. Here are the steps that you have to follow:

1. Create Your Very Own Basin on the Ground Made of Clay

This will be best if you could use clay soil to make a basin on the ground. Dig a little and form a basin like shape on the ground. You have to fill it up with clay and make sure that the clay will be smooth. You have to make sure that there will be no cracks because this will only proceed in letting the water seep downwards on the ground. You need to use clay because it does not absorb water.

2. Create a Fire Pit Near Your Basin

The main reason why you should have a fire pit near your basin is to make sure that you will be able to place the rocks that you need in order to make the water on your ground basil boil. You have to do this ahead of time to make the fire pit that you are going to create stable.

Here's a video on how to create a fire pit.

3. Gather Rocks for Your Fire Pit

You need a fire pit in order to heat the rocks that you are going to use to boil water. It is essential that you are going to pick the right type of rocks because there are certain rocks that will only explode if you bring them to close to fire. There are also some rocks that will not heat well because they are already packed with moisture. Look for a lot of dry rocks and heat them all.

4. Place Your Water on the Basin

Once you are sure that the basin that you have created on the ground is well made, you can already place water on the ground basin. You can use whatever container that you may have to bring the water to the basin. It will be ideal if the place where you are going to get the water from is not too far since you might only end up with small amounts of water every time. Make sure that the basin is full.

5. Place the Hot Rocks on the Basin with Water

The moment that you place your rocks one at a time, you will surely hear a sizzle. It will become even more obvious as you add more and more rocks to your man made basin until such time when you will have steady stream of steam from the boiling water.
