Hi everyone - I was wondering if you could help me identify this: I think it's maple or sycamore, but I don't know..

I snapped the tip off of my Mora clipper *oops*.. I'm not going to tell you how I did it because you'll then all tell me off for bad knife behaviour! But basically I was wondering how to correct that - I've read the tutorials etc but they seem to cover only everyday sharpening - not when there's...

Hi everyone, After weeks of scouring my farm for any birch or lime to no avail, I've just found out that we have a local woods (which I never knew, even though I've lived right next to it for 16 years..), and that it has things like maple, lime, birch, hawthorn.. stuff like that: woop woop! So...

Ok so - I need kit! I thought I should just get it all down here instead of just putting down the item I'm thinking about at the moment, because I know I'll ending starting another thread in a few days :p Ok so firstly - I need a rucksack. I'm looking for something in between a daysack and a...

When I go onto User CP, Edit Profile and Change email/password, it loads up the site but a blank section where the editing part should be?

Hello, sorry for starting yet another thread! I know fishfish has been asking about locations in Scotland, but my requirements are slightly different.. Basically five of us are planning on taking a trip up to Scotland in the summer - we want to go wild camping, combined with a bit of climbing...

I'm looking to buy a 3m x 3m tarp for wild camping on Dartmoor, Lake district and Scotland - do you guys have any suggestions for a cheap but good one? Preferably lightweight, but I realise I've got to compromise somewhere and I think it has to be there :p I was thinking about just getting the...

Hi, Me and a friend have decided to go over to Dartmoor for a bit of wild camping by night and bouldering by day at Easter, since am I right in thinking this is the only place where you can camp not in a campsite around here? So basically I was just wondering for anyone who's done the same...

I was out searching for some birch today so when the time comes I can get some sap, and I spotted this: There should be three photos there, for me it sometimes comes up with 2 for some reason! More here: http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/3716/dscn0355tu9.jpg...

I was on a walk yesterday, and I came across an unknown fungus. I didn't think I'd have any hope of identifying it, but I came across a picture of Jew's ear and it looks quite similar. Here is the picture I took: I'm not sure if that's an elder on the floor, but there are loads of elders...

Hi. I've been exploring our farm recently, (which unfortunately has no woodland) and I've found an elder (I think - the one with the pithy interior that can be hollowed out) tree which I thought I could use for my spindle for a bow drill (I've heard it's good for that?), but it's been raining...

Hi - I'm pretty new to bushcraft, and I want to start! I've been looking at the Woodsmoke junior woodlander course as a starting point (unfortunately I have to wait a year to be 18, so most courses aren't available to me) but I really want to bring a friend, which is my problem, as most girls...
