BUSHCRAFT – Coming soon

The “Oxford English Dictionary” definition of bushcraft is “skill in matters pertaining to life in the bush”.

My team here at Wolverine have a lot in common, we all enjoy the “outdoors” although in several different ways. Between us we have experience with all kinds of heavy equipment, in bush, mountains and desert, bulldozers to off road vehicles and trucks, piloted light aircraft (and even jumped out of them) all kinds of boats from kayaks, to costal sailing yachts, hunted and fished in Europe, North America, Africa and New Zealand . Experienced severe frost bite to dehydration and heat exhaustion. This has taken place as civilians (hunters, trappers, farmers, oil field workers), RCMP, Police and Military members and sometimes in circumstances that we cannot talk about 

This common background has meant that we all have a serious interest in survival skills which in our world equates to “Bushcraft”. With this in mind we have decided to branch Wolverine out into the world of “Survival aids” and all matters related to “Bushcraft”. If you think we will be offering advice on how to counter the next Zombie invasion you will be disappointed. We are going to try and remain focused on basic survival skills that could affect the average person. It is all very well to read about how to light a fire with a bow but how many of you have tried it? Have you ever had to protect a tracker dog’s face from frost bite while on a skidoo? Have you ever relished drinking tepid water from a well full of frogs? Hopefully you will not be placed in these extremes, but then again, I hope you are, because then you are really living life, just remember to savour those memories, they are the best.

We will be reviewing equipment and giving tips based on our experience, and having a lot of laugh’s doing this so watch this space for developments. This will come slowly but will be entertaining 
 
Bring in Ray Mears . Don't bring in Bear Grills . Film it and put it on youtube with Ray Mears hosting the first couple of shows to introduce it . Send me free stuff for using my idea .
 
I like the idea. Will you guys be carrying any gear in your website?

Some things seem to be hard to find in Canada. Bahco Laplander is the perfect example, MEC replaced it with a lower model and the only other retailer I can find wants $50 for a saw that sells for less than $30 stateside.

Why do people "tag" threads? I don't think we have that option on here, do we?
 
As someone who had delved in to backcountry camping/bushcraft in the past year, I welcome your imput. Looking forward to what you have to offer.
 
Here is Wolverine Guy's first lesson for everyone. You can tell the thought and detail he has put into this

I have recently learned the art of friction fire using a bow drill. Satisfaction at its highest level. Ray Mears is god when it comes to bushcraft. I love the bush and I'm looking forward to this thread!
