I wish I had half the gear and enthusiasm you have at 16. Definitely jealous haha

Nice kit you have - I've always favoured lightweight and modern materials but I can definitely see the benefit of more traditional kit as well.

Did you import the Frosts River kit from the US, or have you found a source this side of the pond?

Cheers mate! The beauty now is the choice to mix and match :).

I got the pack from WoodlandWays and the bedroll straps and accessories pouches directly from them- both great services! :)

Late joining this thread, but WOW

Very nice setup. Like your choices a lot. That blanket and the ground sheet with wool lining too are very desirable ☺️

But I'm not envious, honest ��

Well I AM envious! Would love all of that kit.

Showed SWMBO and there was an emphatic 'you are not buying all of that' look in her eye!

Something to work on I think.

Great kit and so enjoyable to see someone who really loves the outdoors.

What got you into the outdoors, if you don't mind me asking.

It was my dad mainly, took me wild camping since the age of about 6 or 7, then I got more interested in the traditional side and bushcraft, and here I am one I guess- we both enjoy the outdoors still and I teach him skills now, taught him flint and steel a bit back, it's all good fun and we both love the outdoors :).

Very nice. I notice ye olde titanium spork in there just like the one my grandfather used to eat his pot noodles during WWI :)

Just seen those group shots man, it's like bushcraft perfection.

I love the traditional gear and that has given me lots of ideas.
