Hi, I wanted to have my first go at making char cloth this weekend. I was wondering if I could make this using a rocket stove so that I conserve my logged firewood and just use the branches that I collect when gardening. Would it be better to place the tin on a fire so that it burns slower...

Hi all. I took my daughter out today to our local woods with the aim of getting some birch bark and hopefully getting some tinder fungus and stopping for a quiet brew. I am pretty sure I may have found some. If I am right it is doing rather well here, less so the Birch trees. It seems funny...

Hi. Working at my mates nursery today I unearthed quite a large flint. I thought it may come in useful for a flint knapper. Sorry I can't post it because I would have to send it via Parcel Force and it would cost a fortune. If anyone would like it drop me a PM. A couple of pics with a 2...

Hi All Just ordered some boil in the bag food from www.beyondthebeatentrack.co.uk, as a veggie backpacker I was getting a bit bored of wayfarers poor selection of veggie foods, I know if I wasn't so lazy that I could cook up some nice treats, but I like the concept of boil in the bag, no...

Hi all Just wanted to introduce my self here. I am from the Bedfordshire area, so I am quite blessed with a good amount of countryside to bimble through. I think this is a fantastic site, it has already saved me some cash not buying kit that looks good but doesn't work. I just know that...
