Is there a US based website similar to BCUK? As a yank I am suprised that I cannot find something similar. While there are many survival sites, they seem to be of a survivalist/miltary/tactical nature.

Sad to say but most of the US forums do have a "Survivalist'',or "Military'slant to them.You can do what I do and sort out what would work for you in your area and under your circumstances.That's why I really love this forum,straight-forward,no non-sense Bushcraft/Woodcraft skills!
I have learned something from every one of the forums I have visited by keeping an open mind and adapting tips and skills to my location.

I apologize for the bad link, evidentally the address for the Lean-to has changed. Click here for their brand new site.
I've wandered into quite a few websites that discuss the techniques used by the old time backwoodsmen, trappers and early settlers.
There seem to be quite a few archaeological and historical groups, especially around the north eastern states (where the original European colonies were founded) and in Canada and the Great Lakes region, that research this sort of thing.
There also seems to be interest out further west into mule packing and the gold rush settlers, and in the wagon-train pioneers.
Even though it might seem a bit "Little house on the prairie" at first glance, I think that much of this ties in tightly with bushcraft.

Check out www.survival.com - Hoods Woods. A good bunch, good site and pretty much cover the whole spectrum. You might be particularly interested in the DVD section.
Thanks Roving Archer, forgot to mention The Lean To Forum too!!! Great bunch of folks there!
