    Enjoy the new video everyone! There will be lots more to come. Shelter building, camping trips, hunting and fishing, and much more - hopefully even some content involving the new horses. Remember to give the video a like if you enjoyed, share it with your friends, check out my other social media accounts (link in description), and leave some feedback and what you liked and disliked. It's all greatly appreciated. Happy new year!

      I had to remember that knot from 3 years go - hadn't done it since I learnt it, but it sure did save my trip. Not having that axe would've made things a lot more complicated. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Been a while fella, love the video. Your channel is fantastic, as it is relative to where I live with all of the beauty and challenges. I love the British bushcrafters, but a Honey Badger seems to be their biggest threat. Cooking food in bear country is a different discipline.
    Cheers mate.

    • @wituikbws
      @wituikbws  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      A discipline I neglect to follow 😆 I do absolutely nothing but have a rifle and a dog around to deal with the threat of bears, and with all the raw meat I have at my camps, I am yet to be visited by a bear believe it or not. I did have a cougar come by my camp last trip though, which is worse in my opinion haha

    • @wituikbws
      @wituikbws  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Couldn't agree more. Pioneers opened up an entire continent using gear like that. I think that vouches for a lot more than a few Amazon and TH-cam reviews on a made in China "upgrade" over the original designs; for example, Fiskars axes 🤮😆

    • @wituikbws
      @wituikbws  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Happy new year! The ring has a bit of a sad story behind it unfortunately. Marie and I live in different countries as you may know (she’s American, I’m Canadian), so it leaves us in a logistically challenging situation. We both wear the ring to always remind us of each other while we are apart, which is sadly more often than we are together over the years. The only finger the ring fits on happens to be that one, but I am more than happy to have people assume I’m married to her :)
