Four nights out.

A few pics of my recent four nights out.
I headed off to Suffolk last Wednesday for a meet with the Suffolk bushcraft group, to make the most of this fine spell of weather here.
Using half of my size one Polish poncho and Bushcraft Spain extension panel, i set up camp in a quiet clearing in the 10 acre woodland we use. This poncho set up gave me a huge amount of sleeping, storage and admin area, so I was very comfortable.
We built a communal shelter area some years ago, where we can sit around the fire and cook group or individual meals, and do skill shares.
All in all it was a very enjoyable and relaxing trip.

Hi Crosslandkell,
Looks like you had a great stay. You very kindly introduced yourself to me when I joined,
I was wondering if there was more details on the Suffolk Bushcraft Group, I live in Suffolk and would love to meet some people locally. Cheers Chris

Looks like good times.

Please could you explain the fireplace grate? Pro`s, Cons?
Understood it appears to be a static site which is what prompts my question.

Thanks.

Hi Dwardo, the grate just means we can get a more efficient airflow on the fire. If a slower smaller fire is needed, we just remove the grate. This is a new toy for us, and we're still trying it out.

Good stuff. Please let me know how you get on with it.

Good stuff. Please let me know how you get on with it.

The other good thing with it, is that you can have a fire at one end, and pull the coals that fall through the grate to the other end for cooking.
