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.

Missed Livestream, Trail Option

Please forgive me, folks. There’s just no way I can manage to fit in a livestream today. My day is just jam packed with other obligations. Life should be a little calmer for me next weekend.

In the meantime, here’s a detailed map of a portion of the Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania for those who are interested. It covers the portion(from right to left) between road PA 309 to the town of Port Clinton. I reckon it’s about 30 miles or so. Beautiful in late September when I originally did it.
