    Just ordered another 《 Cup n Bottle set for my Grandson 18. I got him a bedroll and set it all up w/ all the right stuff for Graduation. Shawn, do you think Camp Craft will ever have anymore of their waxed canvas bedrolls ? I purchased one after your video. I absolutely 💯 % love it !!! Now I want to get one for my wife. ...Alan in Texas 🇨🇱

    I am an 81 yr. old, dedicated outdoorsman since those days when I first learned to walk and followed my father into the Appalachian woods where I grew up. He was my mentor and taught me things about the animals and plants and trees in those old worn-down mountains and impressed upon me the importance of always knowing where you are in relation to where you want to be, which I have carried in my brain to this day. He showed me how to set, read, and understand a compass and it took me many tries until I finally learned how to shoot a path and then follow it in a desired direction until I encountered my landmark and did the same thing over and over again. I got so good at it that I would go up one of the mountain trails we used all of the time, and I turned off the trail and walked until I was sure that I was out of sight of the game trail, and I marked a tree with a piece of bright yellow cloth, (part of an old shirt) hung on a branch. I then shot an azimuth to another tree and walked to that landmark to establish a straight line. It was maybe 40 yds. in length but that wasn't the purpose of the drill. I was attempting to walk a pattern as close to a square as I could to end up as close to the 1st tree as I could get using only the compass to lead me back to the starting point. I came within 20' of that 1st tree on my 1st attempt (with no cheating!) and I was pleased that I got that close. As I grew older, I realized that I was able to accomplish this with one factor which I took for granted but never realized that it was the KEY to coming back to point one! I will let your readers figure out what that one crucial "key" point was that I unconsciously used to find my way "back". When you grew up at the end of a 2-mile dirt road into the Appalachians and your most modern "toys" were an old compass and a Barlow pocketknife and your lunch was a PBJ sandwich wrapped in wax paper and stuffed into a red "farmers" handkerchief tied to your belt, this "exercise" was a challenge for a 5 yr. old boy with "adventure" in his blood! This is my segue into my following comment. You have explained, in just PART of your 17 1/2-minute video, what took me weeks of practice to learn as a young boy and years of challenging myself to finding new ways to use that compass to gain further knowledge of my "backyard", where I had free "roam" of wherever I wanted to "explore!! Throughout my entire life I have hiked and camped, fished and lived off the land, and guided others into many parts of our great country and the adjoining forests and lakes of our Canadian friends and I am STILL learning things with which I can polish my skills and also new things of which I had never considered. Your explanation of the very BASIC ground level instructions for traveling in a straight line in the woods was so eye-opening to me that I marveled at the time it took from my early childhood to learn the simple basic steps that any child could learn in one day if given the steps in the simple language you covered in your talk. Rendering such a complicated looking tool to its most basic operation is a skill in itself and I commend you on your approach to using a compass and also the many other hints and tips [just the building of a simple fire is a good example] that you provide in easy-to-follow steps for those who are starting out and also to provide to us "old wanderers" a reality check to our skills so many times merely taken for granted as habits are formed and experience is built throughout the years. I am not able to trek out in the woods any longer because of my old injuries from my military days and also being "rode hard and put up wet" throughout my different "challenges" I have put my body through simply enjoying the myriad of adventures in nature and the outdoors. But through your videos I am still learning to hone my knowledge "bank" of all my many trips to the woods and it all gives me a sense of accomplishment and pleasure far and above any other life choices i have made in my life as a small business owner and a husband and father of 2 grown sons. And speaking of "sons", where was YOUR son in this video??? I have waited through so many videos for the day when that small boy mastering the "rope" bridge crossing came into his own as a grown man!! Hey, you owe him for allowing you to use his skills to introduce YOUR videos for so many years! ........... just sayin' ........ 😉👍 kzread.infogaming/emoji/7ff574f2/emoji_u1f60b.png

    5 BASIC skills beautifully & clearly explained! You do a great job! Interestingly, about 30-35 years ago I was deer hunting on a cold winter day on the side of a mountain with Beech Trees reaching to the sky when a COLD rain moved-in. Using a military-issued Emergency Space Blanket similar to yours, I easily & quickly erected an emergency shelter very similar to the one in your video. As other hunters scampered to their vehicles, I waited out the rain & continied to hunt. In case yo uare wondering, I did NOT get a deer that day! But I enjoyed hunting a while longer!
