Tree Tuesdays! Backwoods Bushcraft Camp w. Hammock Setup. Or Off Grid / Self Reliance / Camping if you like those terms better.

in #treetuesday7 years ago

That's me at the fire out in the bush making bannock and breakfast, with a few other people. Digital Detox and Off the Grid time is healing and needed.


Bushcraft Camp w. Hammocks & Friends

--

One of my setups to enjoy life in the outdoors and not have to go far when you want to relax or practice some primitive skills as we have talked about in the past many times is to head out behind the house:

Today here I am in the woods behind another property way out in the country.

-- It is a full forest setting and at the end of the weekend, everything is cleaned up of course and the shelters in the bush are the only thing that remains.


Some Past Related Thoughts/Photos:


-- I think it is fitting given most of us here searching for more Liberty in our lives.

Being out off the grid is one way to develop more Self Reliance skills, as well as disconnect from "The Grid" --- and just immerse yourself in some nature, and the peace and quiet that goes along with it.

It has been proven being out in nature for periods of time, helps the overall health. And it makes sense too.


My interest in offgrid life for many years now, is Liberty based as well as wanting to be away from the rat race and closer to nature and the simple life

Bushcraft is basically "Self Reliance out in the Woods" where you take the things you need but Primitive Skills and Living etc is the focus.


It has become one of my most favourite photos and I use it regularly in my blogs, or signing off my blogs here at times near the end of my posts.


Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

@barrydutton The people who have the skills and abilities to live off grid will be the ones who will survive through any economic hardship since they are prepared for any outcome that this wild world wishes to throw at us. Being outside is good for us and I think a lot of families and people are being suckered into the modern day world without realizing that if the infrastructure built around them is no more, then what will they do? I learned from a very young age that you can't just be good at one thing in life, you must have well rounded abilities and skills in all areas to succeed and survive.

You post the best content

Cheers

Dante

This is very nice ..I even fell like joining you guys 😂👍

It was pretty nice, I love being off grid like this, etc.

Love it!!

Hi. First Nations person here... I admire your bannok making abilities... but if you put some blue berries in them they'll be rocking.

God bless ya for everything, and you are right. A little bit of sugar and some fruit in it goes a long way.

I have stood up for First Nations stuff for years. I was very active online and IRL for some things -- the Dakota Access stuff nearly drove me nuts LOL....... I was on that issue early and often.

I've hung banners over bridges for Idle No More, etc etc.

Steem ON!

Great post buddy! Lots of new knowledge learned!

Quite a nice set up you got there. Not to shabby for having rough it a couple days when you need a break. Looks nice and tranquil away from this loud busy world. Can almost taste the dew of freshness off the leaves behind you.

Off Grid Life is what me and my husband been thinking and talking about a lot especially having two boys. We never wanted them to get into the rat race, and so what we decided was to move to El Salvador (where my husband is from)and start enjoying our free lives there. People in El Salvador don't sit locked up in their houses and they don't work crazy like we do trying to chase the dollar. People use their houses pretty much just for sleeping and then they are always in the nature doing things. They live outside. They help each other and always, always have time for each other.
Nature is life. People in rich countries don't appreciate the nature, they have no time for nature, all they do is chase that dollar. This is not the life I want to live or teach my boys to live, but living here in Canada it is very hard not to get into that rat race place because it seems like no matter what you do the system got you. This is at least how I feel. So I'm just glad that you shared this post with us, because it is very powerful and inspirational.

This was a great post. Thank you for sharing. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for you future work!

I see your comments on my posts, but never your vote.
