Wildwood coastal survival course Moidart

[Soloman]

I was lucky enough to do a coastal survival course with Leon from wildwood last weekend.What a fantastic experience in a stunning part of the country.Leon proved not only to be great company but a real mine of information about all aspects of bushcraft and survival.

Some bell heather tea on the go,no tea or coffee or other brought in drinks allowed and I didn't miss them as much as I thought.

Not the cover from Rick stein's latest book but what we caught and foraged along the shore not far from camp.
Oysters,limpets,winkles,mackerel,seaweed,mussels and a shed load of crabs.No one went hungry on Saturday night.

Desalination of sea water.
This course was I think was a bit of a watershed moment for me I was always concerned about the dangers of shellfish etc but under instruction from Leon ive learned what to do and what no to.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Wildwood to anyone keen to see what can be done under the guidance of a real expert.Im just waiting for dates for the sea kayak/bushcraft course for next year and I don't think you can get a higher recommendation than a happy customer that cant wait to go back.
