The post 20 Bushcraft Photos With Peak Cozy Survival Energy appeared first on Barnorama.

Escaped the office grind for a night – cozy 0 °C under a tarp, a cold beer in hand, and a proper pot of chili simmering.

This has been a winter project of mine, and a proof of concept that clothes and fabric can be made from nettle.

A big old Dane axe I made.

Spent a few days doing bushcraft on a deserted island in Collins Inlet, Ontario.

I made a necklace from an antler I found in the woods.

Cooked up a good sized T-bone, sweet potato and two onions for dinner Friday night. I couldn’t resist eating half of both onions while waiting for the steak to finish.

I love this place. It’s extremely secret yet so close to society. Me and my girlfriend have been working on this “treehouse” for a month or so and this is how far we are already. It’s stable, comfy and you’re at least somewhat protected from rain.

Quick winter fire using my folding stove. The kuksa was freezing cold when I set it down, but a few minutes of flame and the whole spot warmed right up. Love simple moments like this out in the bush.

Firepit from debris, and fire with the ferro rod for dinner, bratwurst and cocoa!!

Made this one out of bamboo for smking jerky at a skills event!

BK-2 after years of use – strong, heavy, honest trade-offs.

A little widling today with my bark river mini gunni in magnacut. Teamed up with a Sak and a Swedish hatchet, I can build about anything I want.

I had the itch to get out into the forest all day, but couldn’t get out before late afternoon…anything was better than nothing. A bit of a steep trek in, but it was worth it. Had a simple meal and a nice hot coffee by the fire.

Backpacking in the Rincon Mountains SE AZ.

Introduced my son and extended family to bushcraft up at the family cabin during thanksgiving, also where I harvested the buck. Lots of whittling and fire making for s’mores and hot cocoa. Figured I would mark the occasion with a special mount. All notched and lashed together no glue or nails.

Playing with an older GB belt axe and some tools.

I made a pouch from two deer hocks sewn together.

This summer I went to a 5-day bushcraft camp and I can’t express how much I loved it. We did a lot of activities, learned a lot, and crafted a lot of tools. The photo is just a part of the things we did: a semi-permanent shelter built only with natural materials.

Coming to you live from Estonia.

River fireplace.

Nice day hike and carved a bowl.

I like to try and get practice with my camp blade. With this project the same knife was used to harvest a limb, saw and carve out this little double ring pendant.

Bushcraft Shelter I built during the winter.

Went into the bush with a friend today. Fire was lit with an empty bic lighter, charcloth, and dry leaves. Practiced feathersticks, and lit then up with the ferrorod while the fire was producing some nice coals to cook on.

First attempt at cordage (Siberian Elm.)

This is the second knife I made. I had a multitool for 11 years which broke this April. I took the blade and saw and joined them together to give the blade a tang. Then I took some pine wood and made the handles. Drove two pins through for extra strength.
Made the sheath from PVC pipe and added a velcro strap to carry it on my ankle. Although it can be worn around the neck. I also added a lanyard and a mini firesteel to the knife handle.

Hoboforge skills gathering.

I was told that they made good knifes but I had other gear I liked!! now after buying it I most say I’m impressed!! They come so sharp and ready for action and the handle are not at all what I was thinking I was almost sure they would be a little slippery!

I went into the Appalachian Mountains and tried out a bunch of new things + saw a bunch of wildlife.
Walked around 5 miles, started a fire using a ferro rod and all natural materials, and saw a bunch of wildlife. One my best experiences I’ve had, minus the heat and the bugs lol.
It was my first time starting a fire with a ferro rod using all natural materials, and let me tell you it was the coolest thing.
Im addicted to this stuff!

No shelter trip! Tinder fungus, fresnel lens, fire safety, good food, CS Bushman.
