Why,... you not up for a challenge :-) at the moment the roof tiles flying all around the place maybe a bigger problem :lmao:

HI Goliath, I've been using a trangia set the last few weekends out, have put the kettle, as well as the aluminium pans straight on the fire without any problems. At home you can easily clean the sooth off with wire wool. Trangia does some ready made billies as well, not to expensive...

Hi Everyone, I spend a nice weekend out with a mate last weekend, and unfortunatly somewhere along the way I must have lost my pinewood anorak/smock. I loved this jacket, both to wear, and use as a pillow at night (rolled up in its own hood it maked the perfect pillow). Unfortunatly when I...

OK folks, I think I've cracked it. String up 2 hammocks, one above the other.... In a paraletic state, (try to) get into the top hammock. Chances are you will have a good nights sleep in the bottom hammock :-)

Hmmmm.. I think that since I became interested in bushcraft, I would say there really isn't a limit to what you can make. One of the eye-openers of bushcraft for me. As for using the same stuff celebrity's use... Yes sure I have some stuff that I ve seen on TV (not just bushcaft too). I'm...

Oh come on with the proper preperation getting in the hammock when drunk is easy, just pay extra attention when setting up the hammock. Do the following. Spread the hammock out on the ground, between to trees......... AND LEAVE IT THERE !!!!

Hi Greg, I have seen the FOX basha in a store. Have you noticed that the fox basha also lacks the loop along the centre ridge line... This has put me off buying one. I'm almost 2 meters long and therefore find the military tarps to short and have bought the elite tarp as well. I have added 2...

Also, considder getting yourself a subscription to the Aldi and Lidl digital newsletters. They sometimes have decent but cheap outdoor gear. Stuff I bought there for less than 5 pounds; - folding shovel (for the sanitary breaks) - Diamont sharpening kit (for course sharpening of axes and...

Hi All, Has anybody ever tried to use a standard aluminum trangia pan form a 25 series, with an original trangia tundra lid as an dutch oven for baking bannock. I would like to know if the aluminum pan will hold together. I see no real reason why it shouldn't as trangia says on it's...

Yes I have had a close encounter. It was on a company teambuilding event, a weekend skiing in france (Les Arcs). As I don't ski, I set out one of the days to walk down the mountain. It was a beautifull walk, as you could see the landscape change from a winter wonderland at the top to a sunny...

Hi I just came from a camping store and bought a very cheap, small and flat packing reusable coffee filter. I like the idea of just putting the coffee in the pot and boiling it with the water. I remember some greek restaurant we sometimes go to makes very tasty coffee this way. But since I...
