Thank you for your appreciation 💪

Hi Scott, thank you for your kind words. I’ve been going out into the woods since I was a lad. I was always inspired from the explorers of old with an eye for quality and aesthetics. Good quality kit that will last a lifetime and maybe someone else’s as well. Thanks for your support mate 💪

Hello Paul, Yes, that’s a Warbonnet alright, it’s the only one I use and it’s the Blackbird and it’s perfect. I’m 175.25 cm in height and 81.26 kg in weight. Let me know if there is anything else you need. Cheers mate.

Nature will provide the backdrop, we just have to show up and do our part. Indeed , there’s nothing like a hot stew on a cold day.

Hello thanks mate, that’s the Bushcraft Spain Bedroll.

Hi there, I’ve been doing this since I was a lad. I started off running away from home and going out into the woods with just my school bag and some tins of beans and tuna fish. As a child, you didn’t have equipment and you got cold at night so you learned how to build shelters and improvise and stay warm. I’ve had formal training and like you, trial and error, books, videos, groups and friends with the same interest. The woods have always been an escape for me since I was abused as a child and it has always been a sanctuary for me. Nature has such healing powers. and the empowerment of self-reliance is priceless.

thanks mate. I really appreciate that.

Thank you Adrian, in that video the pack weighs 14 kilos, I don’t carry water. The rucksack weighs 4.5 kilos just to start. And the Camara equipment weighs 3 lbs.

Will do soon mate, I couldn’t be more comfortable than in me kilt, as you certainly know. Thanks again!

Yeah, it’s great when nature provides and you don’t have to bring as much kit so you can travel lightly and just pick a spot and camp out for the night. I really love that cave and that was a wonderful trip. I certainly plan to go back to that cave. Cheers

Thanks mate!

Hello David, thank you so much for the congrats. Right now, I’m recording in the United States, but I plan to travel worldwide and bring adventures to you all.

Hi, Mosquitoes

Wow, that’s one of the nicest things that has ever been said about me. I really appreciate that. I am certainly a romantic and enjoy the way things were when things were much simpler. I suppose I fit the part. Thank you words of recognition. ✅ 💪 🤝

@TheLoreofBushcraft I agree brotha certainly miss that place and time!!! I now struggle with battle of modern ultralight technology and old school bombproof bulky gear trying to blend both worlds for my image 😀 lol always appreciate you my friend!!!✊️🔥✌️💚

Hello Switzerland, Exactly, just a clean outdoor adventure. Cheers

I’m presently in the northeast of the states. Thank you for your words of encouragement, it means a lot.

Hello, the answer is: I don't eat meat. I've been vegan for most than 8 years now. The mock meat you see me consume is produced by Impossible Meats and Beyond Meat. And to answer your other question, they don't spoil as quickly as animal flesh does and can last up can 4 days, five at a stretch in mid-summer. However, I do store it in the stream or creek (in my Bushpot with a rock on top) if I will be more than 2 days to keep the temperature down and extend the shelf life.

Thanks for getting back to me on that. I should of thought of that because that's how I've always done my canteen or beverages, thanks Carn.

More stuff than normal, I just wanted to have a varied display for variety. My kit always changes depending on the outing and I use much less stuff than that. Well, I have a variety of knives to choose from, scroll down on my Instagram page where I did some reviews on knives I purchased. I presently use Ray Mears Pro Woodlore Knife for the most part.

Hello mate, thank you so much for your continued support and encouragement. Now that it’s winter down there I’m sure you’ll be getting out more often. Send me some good photos of your outings on Instagram. Always good to hear from you. Cheer 💪🌲🌿🏕️🔥

Sorry for the late reply, I’ll tell you that has to be one of the nicest comments I’ve ever heard. I really appreciate your recognition. Yes, Fjallraven and Bushcraft Spain have great quality products that were designed for people like me/us. I would consider a load-out Traditional gear video, but as you can see, I simply go out on an outing and list the equipment I use. And yes, Etsy is great, I’ve gotten many things from there and it’s a great way to support individual and small business craftsmen. Feel free to message me on Instagram and we can always have a chat. Thanks, again!

exactly

Yeah, the plough point is nice and easy. Well, I really wish I can inspire others as well as just share my adventures as I’m sure you do the same Andrew. People that don’t go out into nature do not realise that they neglecting themselves from what comes natural. These places are where we belong and they are like coming home. Thank you for your encouragement mate. Cheers

thanks so much, Brazil 💪🔥🌿🌲🏕️

Yes I, thanks mate!

Awesome mate, “The more you own, the more it owns you” is a quote by Chuck Palahniuk liberate yourself. Cheers

As of 2000, there has been one fatal encounter between a human and a black bear in New York State, involving an infant in an unprovoked attack. This was the second fatal encounter between a black bear and a human in the northeastern United States since 1900. Also the the largest average bear only gets to around 350 around here due to the limited range they have as opposed to West Coast bears. Leave them alone and they will leave you alone. Also, some danger is a reality of the wilderness, but I’ll tell you one thing it’s much safer than the New York City Subway. Cheers mate and Thanks for the concern.

Hello mate, glad you enjoyed it. Here is the link: bushcraftspain.es/producto/oilskin-cowboy-bedroll/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw1K-zBhBIEiwAWeCOFwu16ZnRjIlW1XLCXMYSMxbsW6YlClcAXGdyFCzcu9Mr_UEsKDBakBoCB6sQAvD_BwE

Exactly Romeo, pure contentment. I’m truly at Peace. Thank you so much for visiting Argentina.

Hey Ron, the was a Black/Rat Snake. They are very big and physically threatening looking, however, they are harmless to humans. They eat rodents and birds. I just don’t like snakes so that’s why kicked it out of my campgrounds. But it meant me no harm.

@@TheLoreofBushcraft Quick story, dropped a napkin daughter's walkway in Australia, aww crap I'll get it in the AM early. Started to reach for it and thought, where should I not put my hand in Australia, snakey. I live in Arkansas US and I don't like snakes.

Hello mate, yeah, there’s nothing better than a home-style cooked meal in the woods. Indeed, that was Salt, Himalayan pink salt at that. Thanks for the recognition! 💪🔥🏕️

Herb….. Cheers!

Yes, it's a great one that’s inexpensive and very light. I just added the side pockets which made it more expensive but I could’ve lived without them. Thanks mate!

@@TheLoreofBushcraft Interesting , I am still rocking the helikon bergen in desert night camo. Still trying to make it carry like my mystery ranches though.

@codycox2685 copy, I love the Matilda and the way it carries, it’s just too militaristic for me.

Yeah, I'm pretty lucky, that's why I don't want to move. And it's so close to me. I'm glad I can share its beauty with you all.

Thanks again!

My favorite 🙌🔥

Hi Steven, thanks a lot mate, I'm glad you could come along. See you on the next one. Cheers

Hi Mark, that was a Black/Rat Snake. They eat rodents and birds. They are not harmful to humans nor did it mean me any harm but I still don’t like snakes so that’s why I chased it away.

I like snakes and I wouldn't mind it hanging around my site. Bears on the other hand.. scare me to death.

The mountains are calling and I must go. Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn. -John Muir keep going out my friend

Hey thank you! 💪🔥

Cheers!

Thank you for coming along, glad you can make it! 💪🔥

Exactly, peace, that's why I go there. I'm glad I could bring you peace. Those are Pee-Wee potatoes in a variety of colours. They cook quickly.

Yes, back to our roots, brother, back to nature, and back to the Ital food. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m completely vegan. Bushcraft is the name applied to the Bushman of the Kalahari and of Australia who taught the European explorers their knowledge of the wilderness and that’s where the name Bushcraft comes from. Every culture has Indigenous skills but the bushman are the oldest people on earth and therefore the oldest skills. We can all learn from them. They just need the basics and they’re incredibly happy people. Unfortunately, we complicate our lives too much.

Gracias me amigo. I really appreciate your support.

Hello Canada, it truly is the simple things that are most important. A place to sleep, a place to eat, family and friends. Hammocks are excellent all seasons especially Spring in summer when it’s wet on the ground and our tonnes of bugs.

Hello mate, that’s the pillow stuff sack compartment. You can put your nightly needs such as your sleeping cap and a jumper and use it as a pillow or stuff your extra jacket into it to make a pillow. I simply prefer two pillows and height.

@@TheLoreofBushcraft yes, but what is the name of that bivy? interested in obtaining one.

Indeed mate, well said. we’ve complicated our lives and don't realise it's the simple things that bring us joy.

Oi mate, I cooked everything in the ash because I like to use different cooking methods for variety. Each time I go out I try to use a different technique and use a variety of equipment. I put myself in different situations in order to challenge myself. This keeps it fun and interesting, I could’ve used a Lighter as well, but that would’ve defeated the purpose of all this. I skewered sausage a couple of videos ago so it wouldn’t make sense to do the same. I love food cooked in Ash by the way. It imparts a smoky flavour which I enjoy very much, you should try it, it’s quite nice. Do watch some other video adventures so you will understand the concept. Cheers

@@TheLoreofBushcraft well that makes sense then. I have tried the gritty snag thing, not my personal choice but better than going hungry. I do like your variety mindset as too many guys basically do the same thing every single video. You can almost predict to the second when the ridgeline is going up. I do think your composition and camera work is very good; a lot of effort and thought has gone into that. Liked and subbed.

Thank you for your kind words mate, I really appreciate your feedback. My camera work and editing has improved, fortunately and now I can relate my experience better. I’m honoured to have you aboard. Welcome Fatman! 💪🏕️🔥🌲

Wow, thank you for getting it. Exactly, I had to zip the swagman open and use it as a rain poncho, it was the best option. I would have made a canopy for the fire if I had more time, but I had to run off and catch a train. I ended up eating the Bannock bread at home. Greetings mate, and welcome to the channel! 💪🌿🔥🏕️🌲

Hello, in that video around 11 kg with food since it was the summer but it varies depending on the conditions, the season and the equipment I decide to bring. Waxed rucksack was 4 1/2 kg just to start but normally on a trip it’s around 15 to 17 kg with food.

@@TheLoreofBushcraft merci beaucoup pour votre réponse ;)

Hello Jimmy, it's the best I have used and the most comfortable. I have a variety of outdoor mattresses from top-of-line companies and this is by far the best. It it most bulky than I would rather but the pros outweigh this con. You're going to love it.

@@TheLoreofBushcraft I’ll be using it at the end of the month at the remote wilderness first aid course at the pathfinder school

@@jimmyfields5831 that’s awesome, Dave will be proud to see you will one. They really did a great job with him. i’m glad you will be learning to rescue people Jimmy.

@@TheLoreofBushcraft I’ve already taken the Basic survival and winter skills courses after this I have the intermediate and advanced courses plus the intensive navigation course I’m trying to become instructor. But I’m also going to be taking a sailing instructor course and canoeing through U.S. Coast Guard after I complete my pathfinder training

That's great Jimmy, There’s nothing better than being a well-rounded individual who’s ready for adventure. When you graduate, send me a photo and I’d love to honour you with a congratulations.
