2M ago1:03:54

1:03:54

You won’t believe your peepers! Backpacking, wilderness, bushcraft, woodsman gear that complicates the woods, rather than simplifies life in the woods. Simplify, simplify, simply. K.I.S.S. Modern technology is fantastic in so many ways, offering so many possibilities. But does most of it really SIMPLIFY the outdoor experience? Or does it simply cre…

1:03:55

Anybody giving you the idea that you’re going to be able to build a play fort in the woods and just stay there for an extended time in an emergency is ridiculous.

Ep 7: Why Complicate Wilderness Survival? 56:50

Simple and easy is almost always best when in the woods, but all of the messengers want to convince you of the opposite: They want you to get sucked down the black hole of what is most elaborate or complex. Don't overcomplicate your fires, your food, or anything else for that matter. GPS can overcomplicate things. Not knowing how to use your cuttin…

The difference between hiking, backpacking, and 'camping', and sex with no intention of ever having an orgasm - what's the point? Modern camping is not a real outdoor activity.
