The reactions to the current Ray Mears' programmes have been interesting and have got me thinking about what programmes(s) I've enjoyed most. The title says "favourite bushcraft TV" but I guess for my own part I'm thinking about previous RM programmes if we're talking about challenging and interesting environments with a whole dose of skills mixed in.
Because of all the repeats of recent years I've now got a reasonable collection of recordings which I view at the times I want to escape for an hour from the more irritating aspects of modern life and have narrowed my choice down to one of three (I'll give brief descriptions as they don't have single titles:
1 - In the Rockies (scenic grandeur, shelter ,fire & fishing skills and Bears!)
2 - Alaska (forest atmosphere, firelighting, cooking and the pilot who survived a crash and went back for more)
3- Belarus (wildlife, skills, and the poignant reunion of the elderly resistance fighters)
That means I've left out other favourites like Arizona (on the trail of the Apache) and Siberia: I'm really struggling but I'll plump for Belarus (until I change my mind!).Anyone else have any thoughts?
