Hello All,
I live in the Loess Hills of western Iowa where I work as a Natural Resource Manager and an Outdoor Educator.
I lead bushcraft courses that are generally free and always open to the public. I have found that by teaching bushcraft skills to the visitors of the parks and wildlife area I manage they are more likely to visit more often and to have less of an impact when the do visit. That makes my job easier and a lot more enjoyable.
As an example; I like to teach people how to make cordage from natural materials that they may look at as useless to them either because they cannot eat it, or it has no monetary value (i.e.; nettles). By teaching people how to make cordage, and the properties to look for in cordage materials they become more observant and respectful of their surrounding.
Besides working in the outdoors I love to go hunting and hiking with my wife and daughter, and of course I love brushing out on my bushcraft skills and learning new ones. That is why I am here!
