Wild Bushcraft Camp River Trip

An overnight camp out next to the river bank, joined by my best mate Harriet, paddling and portaging in our separate kayaks down the flow of the river. Two gals adventure into the outdoors, taking in the basic skills that most of our society has lost and grow and developed to forget. The calm before the storm, as the unexpected happened... which has supplied me with a new experience and challenge from mother nature. Thanks for watching!

Unbelievably cool to see two teenage girls getting such a kick out of being outdoors and doing camping/bushcrafty type stuff. Bravo!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much

[@micaKTM1290]

Never underestimate Mother Nature, she will win every time. Good on you for wearing a life vest.

[@Martin-oz6lr]

I'm a kayaker and to be honest I saw that coming. Fast flowing water and fallen trees are extremely dangerous even for experienced kayakers. I'm pleased you were ok in the end.

[@wheelzmcgee4641]

Your friend is adorable! Keep her coming

[@ancientsouloutdoors4088]

Glad you made it out safe. Material items are just that. They can be replaced, you can't be. Good video, and stay safe out there :)

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment :)

[@williampysell2819]

You girls seem to be very compatible as friends. Great to camp with people that you genuinely care about, so you can share good times and good memories!

[@krawie77]

Getting outdoors and camping is good for the soul!

[@adampablodayc]

Just a part of it,a bad day on the water is better than a good day at Work/school.This is why we hone our skills.Glad you are ok.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@blather_0n]

Becky i'm so happy to see someone your age engaging in this hobby with such passion and thoughtfulness!!! I totally cracked up when you and Harriet were lying there recalling your day and kept slipping into mini laugh spurts. I couldn't help but to laugh a bit too, ok a lot... It So reminded me of my best bud and i back in the day. So great. Thank you so much for reminding me of my youth and that bush craft is a hobby that can be more fun than serious discussions about methods for batoning small logs. And of course you're providing great content. Whole time i'm like, .... "wait for the coals, wait for the coals..." and you swooped right in and waited for the coals.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your lovely comment, glad you liked my video aha. Take care

[@jobrimar8291]

Great to see you’ve still got that smile on your face after that rather soggy turn of events. Coping with lifes disasters is what makes a person. Nice to see you have a bushcrafting compadre. You two will be telling that tale for many years to come.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much,take care :)

[@jeffreyrose46]

Becky I was watching as you set off on day 2 and was genuinely concerned for your safety with such a high river. Omg 😮I'm so glad you survived and only lost replaceable items and not your life. Next time stay put till the river drops or call for help from camp ....flooded rivers are no joke. Hugs to you both💖🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@GirlOutdoors]

Yeah the river was very high but theres not many roads near the camp so needed to go down stream but next time need to check the river levers. Thank you :)

[@ffstopP]

Pls take Harriet on further expeditions. She is a comforting and helpful companion, and will learn quickly. You kept your head, though you lost some gear, and you can be proud of yourself for that. Lessons learned. A waterproof bag with clothing & fire starting tools is essential if you're going to be on the water. Wonderful videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you :)

[@WolfsFriend42]

Even in a disaster you see the good things. You learn from it unlike way too many who would have just said "F it, I'm never going to do that again". And you were not ashamed to tell that part of the story. Keep up the great work you are doing Becky. I know you are inspiring and teaching many both young and old. *HUGS*

[@glennraycleanplate8487]

+Girl Outdoors Such an awesome trip for you and your Best friend Harriet. I was having an exciting time watching you both having fun and chilling on the river. That Island camp always had a mysteriousness about it even when you and Louise camped there. But that made it an exciting place for camp. I did become worried when the next morning you showed how much the river had risen. But i new the outcome must have been ok since the video had been uploaded. However did not expect how your video ended. Just know I'm truly happy your frightful experience tipping out into the river ended with you unharmed and with you and Harriet being finally safe back home. Glad you practiced safe travels by wearing your flotation vest. Be safe my friend and hope to see you and Harriet on a new adventure sometime. Thanks for sharing and thank God for keeping you safe.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment Glennray :) take care

[@rkelly0213]

My little girl (7) loves your videos! Such an inspiration for her! We’re going to have a busy summer :)

[@GirlOutdoors]

Aw glad to heart that! thank you and hope you do!

[@davidhopson2004]

The two of you always look so happy. God Bless love y'all my friends

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much :)

[@jnorth5543]

David Hopson wish my daughter put her iPad iPhone etc down an opend her eyes an ventured out my boy will travel lovely seeing kids happy well done girls

[@steveoutdoorsuk3602]

So glad that you are both safe and well. You've reminded some of us of a quote by Oscar Wilde "To expect the unexpected shows a thoroughly modern intellect". Thanks for sharing your adventure and thoughts Becks. Take care, atb.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment, nice quote

[@jamesellsworth9673]

We are all grateful that you survived on this one! WOW.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you :)

[@owltune5496]

Love to see you grow into a seasoned outdoors person. Hard lesson but any veteran of the woods has been tested by nature. You go girl. You've got what it takes. Great video. 😎

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much

[@bushcraftjoe1]

Glad you had your frIend with you. Anytime we go out into the wild we are at risk. I use cut resistant gloves when using knives and axes. Glad to see you guys were using life jackets. Now you know what to pack for in case it happens again. You stayed calm and worked thru the emergenct. GREAT JOB BECKY!!!!!!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment

[@jamesmclennan299]

Most important thing is that you got out safely.All your possessions can be replaced.That aside,you and Harriet were having a blast.Great video.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much

[@pandrew3146]

Lovely to see young girls living an adventure together. Great to see how you have grown over the year Fall of admiration for you❤😊s

[@stevecaldwell7514]

Very glad you girls are o.k.. I am sure it was scary but it sounds like you kept your wits about you. Good for you...

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you :)

[@stankamoe5258]

I’m so glad you and Harriet are ok that you both were able to overcome and conquer the situation you both are true warriors 👍🏽❤️👏🏼

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much, means a lot.

[@rogercarrico4975]

I just love it when it rains durning the night. As long as I'm warm and dry😊 Your friend Harriet is very pretty and so sweet! Wonderful video! Enjoyed it! So sorry you fell in! Lost your stuff. Sounds scary! Super good move wearing a life jacket! It's situations like that. That you need to keep in good physical condition for. Glad your safe! That's all that matters!!

[@TheConradChannel]

Wish I'd had a friend like that to go on boating adventures with. I had a few buddies to fish with but none would come along for my adventures to camp on islands and in wild places so I went by myself. Now I consider myself lucky as my young cousin who was too young to come along is a grown adult who's into that stuff so I've finally got my adventure buddy :D

[@rogerfroud300]

I'm so pleased that this hasn't put you off your adventures, just hardened your resolve to be better prepared should the unexpected happen. In these days of over zealous Health and Safety warriers, risk assessments and fear or anything that might be considered hazardous, it's great to see young people having adventures and learning from them. There's no better way than a close call to sharpen your attention and it's something you'll never forget. Well done both of you, you're a wonderful example of what can be done if you are determined to follow your dreams.

[@sirronnijames2997]

so bushcraft turns into real survival. glad to see you re fine. hope as well your friend hasnt lost the Motivation to join you on your future trips

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you

[@redsorgum]

Good job ladies, looks like you two had a lot of fun. 👍👏⛺️🛶🛶I’m glad you ladies made it out safe. Lessons learned.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much

[@thewholecity]

I'm playing catch up on your videos this week. I feel quite overcome with joy when I see you enjoying life's natural beauty. The inner peace and light you share remind me how important happiness is. Thanks Becky x

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you! Take care x

[@cabinlife2347]

Thanks for sharing your experience... it humbles one after taking a spill, but we're glad you're alright. It can happen when you least expect it, and it could have been a lot worse. You got a tiny taste of what it might be like paddling a truly 'wild' Canadian river .. no one 'maintains' our back waters.. it's all wild .. and navigating around fallen trees, rocks and branches is all part of the adventure.. eventually you learn how to handle certain situations before you get to them .. knowing it might get 'tricky' when there's an obstacle and a current to deal with. ... try white water sometime ...just for the thrill of it. Cheers to you Becky .. you're stronger for having this experience. Keep at it. We love what you are sharing with so many people. Glenn & Maureen... in the land where most lakes and rivers are still frozen, here in the woods of Ontario Canada.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment Glenn and Maureen. Take care

[@Wild_Maryland]

I am glad you're both safe. I'm glad you learned from it. I hope you can get your boat back! Keep us posted, please? Great video, Becky!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you

[@dmwgreywolf1123]

You my dear, are a beast! GREAT job at dealing with the "test" you were dealt, your dad should smile real big knowing he has prepared you well. Seriously, Great job Becky, its good to hear you are ok. And a big "Good Job" and "Thank You" to your friend for all her help, sounds like she was a great person to have with you.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much! :)

[@ustabefast]

So jealous!! April15th and we're enjoyin another 6 inches of fresh snow and now a coat of freezin rain to top it all off with!!...Good job on this latest trip out u 2.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Ah no! It has been a long winter, its 25c here today :)) thank you very much

[@jonfornwald]

So glad your alright after your spill. You've got skills girl!!! Another great video. You and Harriet make a good team. Always brightens my day when I get a video notification from you. You should announce a fund raiser to help buy yourself a new camera. I will donate as I am sure others would too. Gotta keep Girl Outdoors in business. Let me know.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much, that was kind to offer but luckily got the camcorder back!

[@greenspaceexplorer4576]

I'm so sorry to hear you lost your camera and boat, but at least you made it home ok. And that's the most important thing. Your bushcraft skills really came in handy this time. Great job.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment

[@createdezign1840]

Awesome job ladies.... Not been feeling very well for the past few weeks so nice to see someone get out there and get some fresh air. Thanks for taking the time to make the vids. :)

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you, hope you feel better

[@neilharris1021]

I started watching your videos to see if I could inspire my 9 year old son to come out with me into the outdoors more. Now I find you are inspiring me! Great video and although I'm sorry you lost and damaged some kit I'm so glad you are okay. It looks like you have a true friend there in Harriet.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Aha thank you very much! Take care

[@WoodyAndy]

Great to see you both still had a positive experience and learned from this. That little camp on the island was cool too! Looking forward to the next trip. Atb

[@SheepDogActual]

You never let me down. Way to go girls. Great video.

[@Fludded]

When I saw how much the river had risen on that little island, I was seriously concerned. I also love that didn’t put the drama at the end in the title. You’re doing an amazing job keep it up absolutely love your videos.

[@bushcraftnorthof6012]

Moving water is no joke! Glad you ended up safe. Was going up Yellowknife River yesterday with friends, and was amazed at how many people don't wear lifejackets! Good thing you had yours. Still ice on the lakes here. Even mid summer, in calm weather, our cold water kills. Just discovered your channel, and it's been great so far. Learning from adversity tends to make the lessons more easily remembered. I wear wool on the water, as even wet, it will still insulate half decently. Dry bags are worth every penny. Buddy system is a good idea, as well. Take care.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you, wow you have a long winter out there! Thank you very much, means a lot :) take care

[@robertniles1781]

Your videos just keep getting better and the smiles of you and your friend are worth the whole video.

[@hamadradwi2161]

This is so relaxing and peaceful thank u for taking us along with u

[@garys5540]

I was just admiring how peaceful and relaxing your Vlog was. Im so sorry you had this experience but any experience like this that you can walk a way from is a good experience. I always take it as life's way of letting me know that I'm just a simple man on this earth. Never take anything for granted. Enjoy life to the fullest and PLS keep making your Vlogs!! Thanks much for sharing!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much, yes i learnt a lot from that day, was a good experience! Yeah i agree, just shows how quickly your life can be taken from you.. Thank you very much Gary, take care :)

[@1950boots]

So glad you are able to do this!

[@outnowoutdoors6469]

Chocolate is for the soul. Always pushes me after a long day out. Nice video girls!

[@GirlOutdoors]

aha too right

[@crosscountryoutdoors2472]

Here in Oklahoma we have a very small river that get really fast at flood stage. The most dangerous thing in the river are the log jams and over hanging trees. At the log jams water goes under them and it will pull you and your canoe down and trap you under water! Tree limbs will flip you in a second if you just reach up and touch a limb! A man took his family out to run the river in a canoe his child and his wife drowned with him. I’m so glad you’re okay! Dan

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you Dan, the river is very dangerous! That is very sad about that family. Take care

[@ldosucowboy3279]

When I see you on these river adventures I am reminded of the wonderful Pink Floyd song Grantchester Meadows.

[@tnguyen9763]

I am glad you both are alive and learned from this experience. Remembering that things can be replaced, but your lives can’t. What a brave attitude to have in a real life scary situation. Thanks for sharing this personal trip.

[@mikerohlich160]

Despite they events happening at they End , this still a great Time out , a great Time to Remember and the memories you got from this also helped you on further outdoor adventures. Great you spoke about this and told everyone , now everyone knows how could they deal with it . To me the whole video is Brilliant especially the fun you had and how to be there for each other and helped each other. Priceless

[@HarshmanHills]

always a fun time with friends, water and camping.

[@JKCooke]

Welcome back Harriet , it's been awhile !

[@marting4128]

Wow, you are one tough girl Becky, nothing seems to faze you. Scary and dangerous situation, but from how you've described it, you and Harriet handled it in a fairly calm and methodical way. Much respect and kudos to you. That said - great video - you both obviously really enjoy the adventure, which means that we really enjoy watching it. Sort-of lifts the spirit!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment :)

[@bfxp63]

Glad to hear everything worked out for you and Harriet, she was probably more scared than you were, watching you fall in the river... Another great example of why you always wear your life jacket...

[@ilostmymind47]

I like the fact that your videos are long not short little clips

[@guns4funcajanajustin]

Nice camp and set up! Sorry you fell in the water keep at it. What a sad end I hope the best

[@welshrune7264]

Quality as always, thanks for sharing x Glad you're safe.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@leegrubb6753]

Sorry your camera got damage! Glade your safe! You seamed to have handle it quite adequately. Better then most would have!!! Yes I did enjoy what video we got to see. Hope you two can get out again. And as all ways, Thanks for taking US along!!!!

[@1950boots]

This is so nice. Well done you 2!

[@steveqhanson6835]

I'm glad you're ok Becky. So sorry you dumped in. It's a great reminder to us all to wear a life jacket and secure our gear! I've been lazy with both at times. The unexpected is after all, unexpected. Good luck to you.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Many thanks :)

[@parjacpar3077]

There is a saying " best way to learn in life is the hard way " and sounds like you did just glad you did not panic. Just glad both of you enjoyed the rest of the trip. No matter how much planning you do something will come along you haven't planned for Thanks for sharing another great video

[@GirlOutdoors]

Yeah too right,thank you

[@OneDread]

This looks soo fun! Way better than going out to party that’s for sure 👏🏻

[@donaldmccann3217]

I’m glad everyone is safe and sorry for the things that was lost

[@rigbybucolic6900]

excellent video.. good to hear you're OK shame about the loss of your stuff but great that through your skills you knew what to to do to keep collected and warm thank you for sharing

[@Casey1pj]

That was an excellent video Becky. The last time I saw you at that camp was with Louise. You and Harriet failed to mention how good the steak was with the wild garlic on it. I'm guessing that the craving for delicious hot Cocoa got the best of you. LOL! That was the first time I have seen that river with rapid current. I'm so glad to see that your weren't hurt. I think that you might want to add one item to your gear. A pair of goggles. Just a light pair that you can hang around your neck. That way if disaster happens, you can pull them up quickly and won't get poked in the eye by a branch. I feel that you and Harriet kept your heads together in this situation and both got initiated to the white water rafting experience. That puts both of you ahead of me when it comes to river rafting. I can handle the oceans rip tides but river rafting is scary to me. I think that the rocks and trees and other debris is what seems to worry me about it. I realize that you didn't expect this sort of disaster to happen but I am soooo glad that you and Heather kept your wits about you and you and managed to come out in flying colors. You girls are hard core and you probably don't actually realize just how hard core you are yet. I feel that (IF GO=PRO WERE SMART...THEY WOULD BE OFFERING YOU A CAMERA JUST FOR THE PUBLICITY THAT THEY WOULD GET!) But what do I know. I'm just a swamp dweller. Love ya Becky! You are an inspiration to all that love NATURE!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Aw thank you for your comment Casey, truly lovely! Aha yeah should of took a snorkel as-well as them googles lol. Thank you so much, take care

[@Wing8565]

Excellent video once again and thankful you're ok. Hopefully you will learn from your experiences and I'm happy to see you smiling 😊 all the best and be safe. 👍

[@hntspade]

I want to say first is thank the Lord you are safe and didn't get hurt. You can replace the items that you lost but you can never be replaced. You two had an adventure that will always be with you two even after the scary ending. But you two remained calm and we're able to make it to safety and we're able to get warm and into dry clothes. This shows how mature and knowing what to do first in that situation. I'm glad that you ha e someone who is willing to learn and share your adventures with you. Stay safe and prepared always. God bless you two.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment :)

[@williampysell2819]

Sorry about the way your trip ended with being trapped by the partially submerged tree, but VERY HAPPY that you made it out safely! Too bad about the loss of equipment, but just great that you are alive and well!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you verymuch:)

[@vegarddlmo2298]

Really glad to see all went well after all,loved the video :-)...take care out there!

Great video , glad you and H. are OK, keep smiling 😊. Best wishes from Scotland.

[@luis]

Excelente, muy saludables y recomedables practicas para la juventud!

[@unnaturaln8ture850]

Great vid and glad you're ok! I dumped in the river last year from slamming into a tree so I know just how you feel. As much love as we have for nature we have to remember that it doesn't care about us at all. Learning from mistakes is key so you can try to prevent it from happening again. Get back out on the water as soon as you're able so the fear doesn't consume you! Be safe Becky! Cheers from the Comox Valley.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Aha very true, thank you for your comment. ATB

[@flatbrokefrank6482]

Its good that you turned your mishap into a learning experience - keep them coming - ATB

The a great phenomenal bushcarft and the video she makes are great way to help people with their own bushcraft skills and learning activities outdoors and to be education about outside wildlife and wildness too and I am glad to be supporting this amazing woman and her experience exciting bushcraft channel and it’s very important one KZbin 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸👸😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼

[@robertshand8101]

Another cracking video..Pity it ended the way it did but sometimes it pays to expect the unexpected, also it highlighted to others the importance of wearing a lifejacket when you're on the water, so an education for those that might need it. We all learn by our little mishaps....and I've had quite a few, hahaha...but it all ended well so that's good. Once again,..great stuff 👍

[@GirlOutdoors]

Yes definitely i agree, it was a big learning curve. Ahaa thats what helps us learn. Thank you very much :) take care

[@ccwweeman3385]

Loving your videos ,enjoy girls great to see young people enjoying life bushcraft wild camping and been thinking about the inflatable kayak as have many areas up here in Scotland, thanks for sharing and stay safe all the best ....Colin ⛺🔥👌🏻👍

[@jake-hy2zb]

Many years ago I experienced the same exact scenario. It's quite frightening but as you said. A learning experience if not a difficult one. Good for you. The equipment can be replaced. You can't. Since then I never paddle without everything being in dry bags. I find more smaller ones much better than one or two large ones. They are tethered to the boat but with long leads so as not to drag me down but also not to lose my survival gear. I also have a river/sailing knife ( I do both) attached to my PFD to extricate myself from the leads or any other obstructions. I hope to see you both out and about soon. You are only beginning your adventures and are explorers that will compliment each other with time and experience.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for sharing your experience, take care

[@circa77]

Another great vid, looked like a nice time, glad you made it back ok, and not to worry about the items, they can be replaced, as long as your ok thats all that matters, thanks for the upload.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@skyblue2636]

Wow, that was a little drama we didn't expect. It sounds like you reacted great in an emergency situation. A kind of life lesson most of us have growing up (what we did right/wrong). Harriet was probably as shocked as you :D Oh well, it all worked out fine and a good story you and Hats can talk and laugh about in the future.:)

[@chrisk3488]

A real adventure!

[@krawie77]

You two are a great team!

[@davidhuxtable8918]

I always recommend being dressed for water immersion if you are on the water i used to risk it often dressing in ord clothes but if you get caught out and get wet or go into the water for any reason you invariably dont get those clothes dry again theyre gone until you get back home or many hours later Sea water especially takes ages to dry out due to salt content So try to dress seperately before even getn on the water It will save on the changes of clothes less washing needed whenever you get back home Etc An immersion suit with light insulative layer underneath is very good or a comfy bolero wetsuit To allow freer arm movements As you paddle is a good idea Tie some knots in yer haul out rope or loops for pulling yerself out up bank of river Youll find it easier than straight ropeline If you slip you will go straight back in the oggin behinds you Very nice video nice trip Relaxing Its peaceful arounds water Even on claggy days Ive set out on bad days in bad weather bye midday its blown over cleared up Burst out in sunshine Many sat at home thinking its in for day Youve come back having had a great day cuz you launched on claggy day they regret it not launching At all Its always nice to do something go ahead if possible it toughens you up A bit and if weather comes out nice again then thats a bonuses too Also Many days get lost bye not launching onto water Cuz of not ideal conds Weather You just got to make yourself what you wear on water pretty bombproof water suitable As you can do most things on land dressed for the water in water clothes but you cannot usually do it the other.ways around wear land clothes often in the water As you invariably get them wet Just have to watch out for thorns if wearing expensive waterproofs For kayaking etc As.they will puncture a dry suit Expensive mistake :) Lol

[@philmetcalf7421]

OH NO!!!! Thank GOD you are ok, Hon! Your gear can be replaced, you can't. So very glad that you are ok. I always worry about outdoors folk that camp close to a river. The risk of flash flooding and rapid water currents are nothing to mess with. I hope that whatever gear you've lost can be easily replaced. I've lost an acquaintance in a kayaking incident very much like yours. He, too, was capsized under a fallen tree and jammed into the trunk by raging water. His party could not get to him in time as he drowned. Hope you can get your camera repaired. I was enjoyed the good quality of your videos. Again, thank GOD that you're safe. I'll bet this story scared the willys out of Bushwacker Man!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you for your comment, appreciate it :) im all good, was a good challenge

[@gaz0463]

Fantastic video as always. You always paint a lovely relaxing time away from the hectic stressful busy life we normally lead. It’s so peaceful. I’ve said before that long ago I was in the army and watching you I can see that your camp craft skills are extremely good and you have very good camp discipline plus it has to be said, you don’t half eat well lol. Thank you for uploading this video. I could watch this over again. Even though I’m not there it still allows me to escape, relax and recharge for the week.

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much for your comment. Aha yeah gotta have nice food on a trip hehe. Take care

[@adam_r4471]

Shame about all the thinks you lost.. just glad you got out and didn't get hurt or worse. Hope to see you back in the woods soon becky.. keep up the great content... your killing it. :)

I'm enjoying your videos very much. I like the music you use for them. You're just east of where I was born in Chisledon, Wiltshire but I mostly grew up in Germany and the USA. I do have family around Salisbury though. Glad to see you young ladies enjoying the great outdoors . . . and you really know your bushcraft. Be careful and have fun. Ciao!

[@GirlOutdoors]

Thank you very much, wow you have grown up in many different country's. Take care :)

[@ClanGunnBushcraft]

Wow! Your own island camp. Very unique. Iv gota get myself one of then inflatable kayaks. very cool. Horrible ending, but your well and have learned from your experience. Take care 😏
