Got out at the weekend to test out some gear including my new gransfors brucks small forest axe and what better way to try it out than some shelter building. :D

Desided to move camp to a new area and build a nice lean to shelter with fire.

The land is owned by my school, 40 acres worth, I'm quite lucky to have full use of it on the condition that I look after it.
It's right in the middle of no where almost not a house for about a mile or just over the only people to pass through are hunters which usually to busy to notice I just have to hope it stays up and if not get building again.

The whole thing took about a day and a half that's without time taken to collect fire wood and do other things put together quite quickly.
