Publisher's Synopsis
Wherever adventure takes you, take The Ultimate Bushcraft Survival Pack! The 76-page field guide and 4 included survival tools can help you safely explore nature, even when adversity strikes.Bushcraft is the revival of skills practiced for centuries with which people use the resources found in the natural environment to survive. Although traditional bushcraft is mainly about wilderness survival, its focus on using the tools that already surround us can certainly be applied to wilderness camping, hiking, backpacking, and exploring. While no one ever heads out into nature expecting to face hardship, what they do in unexpected circumstances can mean the difference between a serious outcome—and a seriously good time.This adventure pack includes:76-page field guide: Learn the basics from what to look for in a tent, sleeping bag, and clothing to how to pack a backpack, plan for meals, and make a survival kit. Then learn, with step-by-step illustrations and easy-to-follow diagrams, how to find, purify, or produce water; the proper way to build and maintain a fire; how to forage and cook over an open fire; how to create shelter (if that tent situation didn't go as planned); how to find your way without a compass and what to do if you get lost; plus an essential guide to first aid.Flint-striker: Use this necessary tool to start a fire by striking the two pieces together to generate sparks that can ignite kindling.10-in-1 multi-tool: Small enough to store in your wallet, this mighty multi-tool has many uses: knife, screwdriver, bottle and can opener, ruler, wrench, and saw blade.Paracord bracelet: This light bracelet unwinds into a sturdy 9-foot (2.8 m) long paracord that you can use for securing a tent or splint, building a clothesline or snare, or hanging a food bag to keep it from critters.Emergency blanket: This reflective blanket packs up small but provides a big punch of heat when temperatures drop by reflecting radiated body heat.While this guide isn't for extreme canyoneers or mountain summiteers, it is for anyone who enjoys taking the road not taken. Because you never know when nature or circumstance will disrupt the best laid plans. Most of those who venture into the woods run intro trouble for one reason: they aren't properly prepared. With that in mind, this field guide and the included survival tools are the perfect carry-along on your next camping trip or wilderness hike. It's also a great gift for the nature lover in your life. Don't leave home without it!
