[hillbillybushcraft]

where did you say you got the anorak from?

@hillbillybushcraft Lester River Bushcraft

[handyscot1]

Great setup and great ideas. Thanks for sharing.

[pixelvale]

I dig this video trio, thanks for taking the time to share. I also appreciate you sharing when ideas don't pan out, as we all seem to learn more from our mistakes.

I have a slightly off topic question for you. Do you know what the straps in the thigh pockets are for on the 50/50 BDUs?

[gmcpcs]

Great application video. I also like the bait in the straw idea. Did you post a link where the small knife can be acquired? Thanks.

[iawoodsman]

@gmcpcs I got that knife from Turley Knives. He only makes them in batches every once and a while.

[WindwalkerZ25]

Great vid Brother, you see so many PSK vids on what to carry, but not many on actually using the items. Nicely done and I like the debrief at the end of pt. 3. Something I always try to do when coming back from the bush. Keep 'em coming! Clear skies!

[ibmoosed]

great PSK

i particurally like the straws idea

[pepple84]

what is that you keep the cotton balls in? tin foil?

[iawoodsman]

@pepple84 Yes sir it is

[ihoppy]

Who was filming?

[iawoodsman]

@ihoppy A friend of mine was with me during the day. I did the rest.

[bindlestitch1]

You rock, my friend.

[NewbieCamper]

@iawoodsman Thanks - another tidbit of knowledge ;-).

[TheBushnut]

are there really that many "meth heads" roaming the woods of america? i always thought they were a more urban dwelling species. they are nocturnal but in canada they usually inhabit downtown empty buildings very loud night clubs or suburban bungalows.

[iawoodsman]

@TheBushnut In my neck of the woods they go to secluded places to do there cooks. My family has caught them cooking in a timber we own. They are no joke.

[Woodenarrows]

I think it’s really unfortunate these days we have to be more concerned about 2 legged predators than the 4 legged kind. Really ticks me.

[iawoodsman]

@Woodenarrows It is a sad but true fact

[GiantPinhead]

Outstanding TB. I appreciate these even more after I've come back to them the second and third time. Lots of good advice.

[wiking3r]

congrats! excellent material!

[charper3006]

Great so far... On to part 2......

[waveman0]

excellent stuff mate, and an exercise we all should do. I laughed my ass off when you pulled out your pistol, in Australia(were I live)if I were caught with a handgun out in the bush I could expect to spend a long time in jail. Also what was the thinking of not taking a fixed blade belt knife? I just wouldn't feel comfortable doing this bush craft challenge with out my CS SMIII trail master and BK-2...LoL

[iawoodsman]

@waveman0 I did have a fixed blade. It was just very small.

[waveman0]

@iawoodsman I saw that, and a nice little knife it is too.I wasn't trying to be a smart ass, I reckon you did a magnificent effort at this very challenging BC challenge.

[iawoodsman]

@waveman0 I did not think you were being a smart ass. No worries

[dragonflyhiker]

Looks like a good series

[jkd185]

[NewbieCamper]

Fabulous start to the series. Before I go on to part 2, I have to ask ...

Why did you dump the cat tail root back?

[iawoodsman]

@NewbieCamper the inner root was grey. It should be bright white.

[TheGariuk]

Where did you get arrow card? Great video!

[1IdeaAhead]

Oh man, you DO have a face : P Checking out the next 2 parts now...

[TomsBackwoods]

Awesome! Man I want a Turley PSK!!

[faolbushcraft]

You da man!

[ISOGITE]

Where did you get the arrow card? Is there a website?

[iawoodsman]

@ISOGITE  equinoxcoronado.cm

[ISOGITE]

They're nowhere in sight. I tried every link.

[kenny9823]

nice, where did you get that jack from agian can find them

[GotYarbles]

Very cool.

[kgdblade]

Amazing stuff. Terry puts his money where his mouth is! Digging those roots must have been really cold on the hands.

[SgtMac80]

OOORAH!!

[4micaman]

You chucked the cat-tail saying it was really old. Would you elaborate on that?

[WesternBushcraft]

Awesome!!!

[lazydogdied]

From all your videos I have watched, I would say with minimal kit, you will be just fine. You have alot of knowledge and could probably survive with even less! As I learn more I realize I don't need 35 lbs of gear for a few days, but I still bring more than I need. I guess knowledge is most important. Great video as always.

[KR46389]

Great to see your practical application of your kit. Two thumbs up!
