Join me, an experienced backpacker, as I step outside my comfort zone and dive into the world of survival skills and bushcrafting. While I know my way around the backcountry, I’ve never really practiced the skills that could save me if something went wrong. That’s where my friend Gordon aka @grimgranite comes in — a seasoned survival coach who teaches these essential techniques. Alongside me is @MirandaGoesOutside another avid backpacker who, like me, is new to bushcrafting.
Together, we tackle everything from fire-making and shelter-building to essential wilderness survival tips, all while having a ton of fun (and plenty of mishaps) along the way.
This video is perfect for:
🌲 Backpackers curious about survival skills
🪓 Bushcraft beginners looking for an approachable intro
🔥 Fans of playful, lighthearted outdoor adventures
🗺 Hikers wanting to boost their backcountry confidence
Whether you're a survivalist pro or just love watching people try (and sometimes fail) at something new, this is the video for you!
