Horace Kephart, legendary woodsman and author of Camping and Woodcraft, knew how to dress and prepare for life in the backcountry. In this video, we reveal not only the rugged outdoor clothes Kephart wore, but also the essential items he recommended carrying in his shirt and pants pockets.
From his wool shirt, canvas pants, and sturdy boots to his carefully chosen pocket gear, Kephart shows us how to stay prepared for mountain travel, sudden weather, and daily camp life. His choices weren’t about fashion — they were about practicality, durability, and survival.
These timeless lessons in clothing and gear organization remain just as valuable for modern campers, bushcrafters, and survivalists.
