Ray Mears' Bushcraft - Canoe Journey

Always enjoy watching one of Ray Mear's videos. There is much to learn and he's rather matter-of-fact about it all. I love his style and the fact that he's pushing knowledge and not products. Thanks for posting this video. Time to watch it again!

That's all for now. Take care and until next time....be well.

Surprised I got sucked into watching almost all of this 240p video, but it ended up being quite interesting and informative. Ray Mears was joined by well-known British canoeist Ray Goodwin. Thanks for posting it.
 
Old ways are the best ways. Practice the old skills because you may need them.

I made lasagna in a Dutch Oven on a fire last night in the back yard campsite. Practice your fire building skills. The wood wet from recent storms. Very satisfying to build a good warming and cooking fire.

When was the last time you sat by a campfire? Two years ago? You may need to practice your skills in case a crew member takes a swim in cold water. A fire can save a life.
