The Practical Woodsman
Education • Travel • Preparedness
The Practical Woodsman is a way to share love of the wilderness, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. The focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.

Greetings

I hope you all are doing well out there. I see @GHuns has been busy!

I took a few days off because of the holiday weekend here in the states (Labor Day), and tried not to work on things and just take it easy. I have enjoyed the recess but looking forward to getting back to things tomorrow (Tuesday). Just a reminder that I have another online channel and work that I do unrelated to Practical Woodsman, so I am literally always recording something, writing something, uploading something, managing communities online.

I try to hopscotch the two things, one week I primarily focus on Practical Woodsman, the following week I focus on my other work.

Point is, I rarely take a break from content creation. And honestly, it’s not easy for me to take breaks. I enjoy this stuff so much. But if I’m not mindful, I can get close to burn out.

Anyway, I hope you guys and gals are all doing good out there. Looking forward to new stuff this week.

Enjoy this video of Balsam Range singing ‘Blue Mountain’ from Friday night.

I brought my Baofeng to work since weather is hitting and I can say this county is a demo derby when freezing rain hits.
