It was Myles first long distance hike. Usual wet muddy spots and rainy days but a beautiful hike none the less. Even came within 30 feet of a bull and cow moose. A special place to visit. @BushcraftNFun#campingwithdogs #camping #outdoors
SUV RV conversion/ Turning an SUV into a mini RV Bushcraft N Fun 2023-05-22 | Tour of @Bushcraft N Fun's 2005 Chrysler Pacifica SUV conversion. Who would think you could have so many comfortable amenities in such a small vehicle. After we gutted the back removing the seats and walls we built it out into a mini RV. Solar, running water, toilet, bed, diesel heater....and the list goes on.#VANLIFE#CAMPING#vantour#SUVrving
Small 20v chainsaw review Bushcraft N Fun 2023-05-08 | Rick @BushcraftNFun. Just a quick review of a small battery powered 4" chainsaw from Radley. Purchased from Home Hardware in Ontario Canada for $99. Rick being a certified STIHL master technician gives his opinion on this handly little gadget. He picked it up for Heather @BushcraftNFun for using in her van when she went camping. This suprising little chainsaw did quick work of a wheelbarrows worth of wood. Ash and beech.Would make a great addition for the back of your camper van or for around your home.
what do you have in your backpack? Bushcraft N Fun 2023-05-06 | Rick here from@Bushcraft N FunWhat do you have in your backpack. My pack is modular. Much like a long distance backpacker with multiple dry bags for different items.
No hatchet? No problem! Bushcraft N Fun 2023-02-13 | Camping and havee no hatchet or saw to cut up logs? No problem!
Pre Christmas camp visit / Pocket Dinner Challenge/Bushcraft N Fun Bushcraft N Fun 2022-12-22 | * Pocket Dinner Challenge * simple, short and sweet. Make a small meal in your back yard over your fire pit or in the bush! Your choice. But you have to take everything in your pockets and carry 2 items in your hands only! No backpack, bags or satchels. After a stressful few years and a year almost over, let's get out and enjoy nature for a half hour and de-stress. Cooking hotdogs over the fire, a bit of practice of our fire lighting skills ( not video taped), Rick with a ferro rod, me with a flint and steel. Been a long time since we visited this camp so decided to have a little pre Christmas bush fire in our old holey tee pee that's still standing after all these years and a chat to wish you all from Rick and Heather, Bushcraft N Fun, a Very Merry Christmas and the best of the holiday season. Heres to a better 2023!!

Quick easy repair of a tear in your down bag or coat Bushcraft N Fun 2022-09-11 | #Bushcraft N Fun's version to repair nylon gear. Who would have thought this would work. Sometimes your out on trail or camping and you get a tear in that warm down bag or jacket and suddenly you have feathers appearing. Duct tape is bulky and ugly or you just dont have any. But almost everyone carries a first aide kit. How about this quick fix that has multiple uses, doesn't take up much space and looks much better then a piece of tape. I used it several years ago for a small hole in my tent which is still holding strong and a pair of nylon pants which I have washed many times without the patch coming off.

An old year just leaving A new just begun Bushcraft N Fun 2021-12-31 | A day in the bush just enjoying. Taking a moment to wish you all a Very Happy New Year. Thank you all for supporting us and watching our videos over the past few years. Our channel started out to be more about saving memories that we can look back on down the road and turned into shared knowledge and making friends all over the world. Although the past 2 years have been very difficult and frustrating for many of us we hope 2022 is a better year for everyone. All the best and bye for now! Rick and Heather - Bushcraft N Fun

Hobo Challenge - Bushcraft N Funs version!! Bushcraft N Fun 2021-08-29 | Rick put out a challenge to do a hobo video. So here's our version.
Lixada Ultralight Titanium 750 ml Cup with foldable handle cheaper then Toaks, Walmart? Bushcraft N Fun 2021-08-22 | Sometimes you can find ultralight gear in unexpected places. I purchased this Lixada 750 ml titanium cup, 119g from Walmart on line in Canada for under $30. Quite a bit less then a Toaks cup. So if you are looking to find some ultralight gear that won't cost a fortune, sometime you can find it where you least expect it! It's pretty decent quality with a well fitted lid, handles that fold flat and graduated measurements on the inside edge.
Hobo challenge anyone? Bushcraft N Fun 2021-08-22 | take your shirt, towel, pillowcase? and throw together a little basic kit and head out for a few hours in the bush? Make a coffee, something to eat, just the basics? What do you all think?
Windscreen for your backpacking stove Bushcraft N Fun 2021-08-15 | Quick little video on how to make a cheap, light windscreen for your propane backpacking stove.
Wet wood / 3 match fire challenge Bushcraft N Fun 2021-07-12 | Between lockdowns, work and rain we haven't been out much and figured it was a good day to practice making a fire with wet wood ( or just making a fire ). Rick threw in the 3 match theme and figured we would make a challenge and out doors friends out making a fire and practicing your skills. Open tag. If you want to do it go ahead. if you only want to watch, that's fair.
4 days in the Algonquin Backcountry / Western Uplands Backpacking Trail Bushcraft N Fun 2021-07-08 | 3 nights and 4 days hiking the Algonquin Provincial Park Western Uplands loop trail.

From Long Point to Port Colburn to Fort Erie and Niagara Falls up to Wiarton to see the statue of the groundhog Wiarton Willie up to the Northern Terminus of the Bruce Trail in Tobermory. A quick little mini vacation to take a break from lockdown.
Odds and ends Bushcraft N Fun 2021-05-03 | Spring catch up projects. Make hay while the sun shines as they say. Been a bit busy trying to get spring chores done and haven't had much time to get out and do some bushcraft stuff. Goats run in shed needed a new roof so they had somewhere dry to go during the day. Before spring storms arrived we got the roof and walls done.

SUV RV Diesel heater install and scribing and building cabinets Bushcraft N Fun 2021-02-04 | Installing the 5 kw 12v diesel heater wasn't easy. Not alot of space inside where it was easy to access where to put the exhaust under the vehicle. Rick ended up making a custom stand for it. what a difference. Nice dry heat. it came with a remote and led display. Affiliate links to the heateramzn.to/3cCqEMb

Ricks Woodstove Bushcraft N Fun 2021-02-01 | if you have a woodstove it is a learning curve of the quirks of your stove, lighting, maintaining a fire, length of fire burn, what kinds of wood work best for your particular stove. Those who know their stove, like Rick, make it look easy! Heather has a totally different woodstove and hers has its own quirks and likes and dislikes. Tell us about yours if you have a woodstove.
The floor build out for my SUV Crossover RV Bushcraft N Fun 2021-01-15 | Adding framing over the wires to try and level out the floor. The gap under the front floor wasn't enough to worry about for storage so we just made a completely flat floor from the bed edge forward with scrap wood routed out to follow the contours of the floor. I used 'Double Reflectix' and 'DMX 1 Step' for insulation under the floor. dmx1step.comreflectixinc.com/products/double-reflective-insulation

Building the bed for my Chrysler Pacifica Bushcraft N Fun 2021-01-08 | Next on tap is building the bed for my SUV. Rick took over this part.Making the most of a small space, going with our philosophy of less is more and multiple uses for each item. One small bed is not only a bed, its a storage closet and a fold up bench/ couch and possibly the heater system. #VANLIFE #SUVRV#VANCONVERSION
Crossover SUV RV? / Turning A 2005 Chrysler Pacifica into a mini RV / Van Life Bushcraft N Fun 2021-01-04 | Can you turn your crossover SUV into a mini rv?Mini RV life begins. Make due and improvise is what my dad always said. I had just bought another Chrysler Pacifica, a 2005 after my 2008 bit the dust. I started noticing videos of van rv's and became fascinated. But, my new Pacifica wasn't exactly made to be converted into a RV, it didnt have stow and go seating like the caravan or the new models of Pacifica so only way to get the seats out of the way was to totally remove them. It wasn't "square" like the caravans. But as I was only testing the waters to see if SUV rv life could be on my bucket list I decided to give it a whirl, and with Ricks help for the little more technical stuff ( he will be joining me on occasion) we will venture into this build out of my crossover suv rv! #VANLIFE#SUVRV#SUV RVING#SUV CONVERSION#BUSHCRAFT N FUN#VAN CONVERSION
