We recently ran a camp in woodcraft plus some outdoor training. Good fun was had by all even in the rain! I reccomend getting out and back to nature every now and then - especially while the weather is like this!

Do any of you explore primitive living skills at all? I have been researching for several years now. I have figured out how to forage for several edible pants, but so far primitive fire making still alludes me...I still have to resort to some sort of modern, manufactured firestarter.
Rain, snow, wind, sun, rough uneven ground. Just deal with it.
