Ep 5: Bushcraft, Survival, Backpacking, Corrupted!
Watch me eat lots of crow, admit I'm wrong, and ask for forgiveness. I plead for your help with something I am working on and I appeal to others who share similar attitudes to me. Terminology has been corrupted - why 'bushcraft', 'survival', 'wilderness backpacking' have strayed from the ideals that they once represented. John Muir. Simon Kenton. Why short-sleeved shirts will mark you as a silly greenhorn in the woods by woodsmen. Stinging nettle. Why the Appalachian Trail is nothing for you to go bragging about to true woodsmen (and woodsladies).
