Aye Up Neil1,

Nice video, nicely produced and without too much 'rabbit' and with good use of text on screen.

A good example of an almost comprehensive wild camping kit-set and nice to see that it was almost all in subdued colours.

I would say that if it had included a map, compass and whistle (especially if you are deploying solo!) it would be five stars.

You might also have included the all-up weight of the ruck and the gear on your belt. It would make a good gauge for those new to the pass-time to measure against.

Well done pal.

I liked that.

Not quite what I take, but we are all different and arrive at different answers to similar questions. Plainly showed the fruits of a lot of practical experience , and an excellent example on which a beginner can build on in the light of their own experience.

I too liked the small amount of "rabbit" - a good example for others to follow in the production of teaching videos.

Well done and thank you.

Thanks for that share, good information, short , concise , thorough and to the point!

Your style of tutorial is the best,
No need for long rants , just short snippets of clear precise info.
Well done mate and thank you!

Thank you for the comments. I try to keep them as practical as possible and only stick to what people actually need (most people drive to a wooded area that they know and stay there to practice their skills - hence no map & compass). I may make one dedicated to travel in wild country perhaps.
My next planned one will be on "Year round clothing for bushcraft", covering the basics (layers, fabrics, etc).

Thanks for this. It's very similar to the kit I used to use before I moved to the tropics...I'm now back and in the process of rebuilding a temperate camping kit and avoiding too many gadgets! This is a big help to get me back to basics.

One thing: what is that lightweight alternative clothing set?

Thanks again

Bob

Its a "zoot suit", basically a two piece shell suit made out of para-silk. With this I have a lightweight base layer set too, made of merino wool.
