Hi everyone,

I am new to bushcraft and am looking to find my way/get started.

When I was younger I was involved in scouts and then went on to mountaineering and climbing. Now that I'm older (42) I'm looking for a slower and less strenuous past time where I can connect again with nature.

I've got some bits and pieces kit wise but will be building this up as I go along. I'm keen to do stuff year round so will be bearing this in mind with heat selection. I'm a dog trainer so am use to being outdoors all day every day.

Any help or recommendations would be appreciated. Also shout out if your in my neck of the woods.

Alex
