Just thought I'd share, seen a lot on Facebook about The Bushcraft Journal now being free - The latest issue just launched: https://joom.ag/csTL Loads of cool stuff in the magazine and was worth it when I paid for it, but now all the back issues are free and everything!

Could this be updated to show the pictures? The original post only has Photobucket errors :-(

You can set up a tarp without any trees with lots of different pieces of kit - just think about what you have already and look around at the ground you get to. If you have a rucksack, pitch the tarp straight over it and I'm sure you will gain enough room to sleep underneath, I've used this...

Hey - Seems I worded it terribly! I'm not planning on being 'IN' the fire, I mean, I have had Gore-tex/nylon/melty jackets for all my outdoor related trips, but having used older jackets that end up with singe marks and burn holes etc. I wanted a ventile/cotton/waxed jacket that would be good...

Hey everyone, Really want a jacket I can use in and around fire that is waterproof/windproof. Preferably made in the UK - does anybody have a recommendation? Weight not too much of an issue as won't be carrying too far on my back :-)

Thanks for the quick reply - Hopefully hear from your team soon :cool: Jay

Hey Bushcraft UK team - I have sent an email to info@bushcraftuk.com, but haven't had a reply. I wanted to find out more about advertising on the forum, similar to the banner at the top of the forums page. Would be great to hear from one of the team, Jay

Loving all the options for foraged nuts - will have to keep an eye out for some cob nuts or pig nuts. Had a less foraged and more 'fun' cooking task last night with my explorers, organised by another leader: Damper twists! Self raising flour, butter, milk, sugar. Make into a dough - one cup...

Had a great evening last week with my Explorer Scouts experimenting with Nettles (We had a 'Nettle appreciation' evening). As a group we made Nettle cordage and Nettle tea, but the best bit was the Nettle, Garlic, Pine Nut and Parmesan pesto. We cooked up some normal pasta noodles and had a...

Have been using the Firebox for a while and a friend loves hers - recently been looking at the Bushbox XL and found a cheap bundle with the outdoor bag and universal grate included (well cheaper than amazon anyways!!)...

Hey everyone - I've organised a talk from Paul Kirtley at the Arc'teryx Piccadilly store on the 8th April. It is the Spring / Summer Gear launch and the main event is the talk about his recent trip to Patagonia, but also how to enjoy the wilderness closer to home in Scotland and other easier to...

Some useful information i put together for using walking poles for Alpkit - https://www.alpkit.com/spotlight/take-a-hike Jay

Hey 'brambles' - It was a specially added snow valance for Alex Hibberts Dark Ice expedition to Greenland. If you need snow valances added it is something we can do, but works out expensive as the yardage of fabric and the time to do them adds up quick! For UK use, all year round, and in fact...

Hey Tallywhacker, I understand about the negatives - everyone should know everything! The cost for the phlask is just based on production, we make very little on it - but we love the look and also as you said the multi-use functions, maybe I should give it another look? Jay

Thanks for all the feedback! In reply to Tallywhacker - the thinner titanium is all about lightweight, as a company we stem from the Alpine/mountaineering world where every gram is counted and are constantly compared with other manufacturers. We are bringing out more cookware, including some...

Hey Rhyan, What do you think caused the wet tarp? Was it just the weather, as I was out the same weekend and was pretty damp just walking about in the drizzle/cloud I seemed to be in all day! Jay

What about World War Z - both the book, the film and also the same author (Max Brooks) did the Zombie Survival guide. All a bit far out there (no more than some other films on the thread!) Trailer Link: https://youtu.be/HcwTxRuq-uk The book is actually a good little read, and the survival...
