What is Bush Craft?
Bushcraft is the skill of being comfortable in the outdoors and being able to utilize the materials around you to create things that make you more comfortable. Going hand in hand with being comfortable, is being confident in the outdoors. Confident that you could light a fire if need be. Confident that you could find or make shelter if the weather turned bad. Confident that you could navigate to and from somewhere you've never been to before.
If you like being in the outdoors then chances are you are already familiar with many aspects of bushcraft (and perhaps don't know it!).
In case you’re wondering, “bushcraft” is not the same thing as “survival” - survival skills are considered to be a subset of bushcraft skills as a whole!
Please don't think that bushcraft is only limited to people who are fortunate enough to live (or be able to visit) some of the more remote locations on the planet. You can use bushcraft skills during short day hikes and picnics as well as longer expeditions into the wilderness.
