I love crisp, still cool autumn days. Warm enough to just be wearing only a shirt for warmth but cool enough that the smoke from the fire hangs in the beech trees filling the air with its scent whilst all manner of woodland creatures go about their buisness, preparing for the cold days and long nights ahead. 🎃 🔥 🍂 #bushcraft #outdoors #woods #autumn #fall #camping #nature https://www.instagram.com/p/CkD9NAeKTmE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Recently I set my self thr challenge of making a fire from feather sticks, but without a knife. I'm using the @gransforsbruk small forest axe here to feather the sticks and I an striking the ferro rod with my @silkyeurope pocket saw. Making the feathers with an axe is certainly more challenging than with a knife but definatley worth while! #challengeaccepted #outdoors #bushcraft #adventure #survival #bushcraftgear #axes Photocredit @lauren.taylor_photography https://www.instagram.com/p/CehJD7DKJiX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I love being under my tarp... but there is something of security being in a tent. Especially one as tough as the @vango.outdoor banshee ⛺️ #camping #outdoors #traillife #hiking #adventure #bushcraft #Cornwall #kernow #exploremore #adventurer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc3Z-07qEhJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Taking shelter from the sun and stopping for a very rewarding cup of coffee on the trail 🤙🌊🔥 #hikemore #explore #Cornwall #southwestcoastpath #adventure #kernow #ocean #hiking #campingvibes #sun #Beach #simpleliving #earth #england https://www.instagram.com/p/CcyIzRnKmFd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Taking stock in the morning over cup of faff coffee with a stunning view. Despite the plethora of modern technology available you'd be foolish to head out without a paper map and compass. Map and compass not only give you an easy means to see the wider landscape in detail but also don't require batteries or signal! #map #navigation #outdoors #adventure #camping #wildcamping #vangobanshee200 #ordnancesurvey #hiking #sunrise https://www.instagram.com/p/CcvYQDXqHuh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

First night on the trail after a very very easy walk along the south west coast path. Stunning scenery where ever you look and a mixed bag of weather. Very hot, very rainy, very sunny, very cold! Everything is a little damp but spirits are high indeed. #camping #hiking #Cornwall #adventure #outdoors #menofoutdoors #nature #sunset #ocean https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccdxkm8KXxq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Back home from another overnight trip, this time testing some new kit and ideas. There's a lot to be said for sitting in the woods alone with nothing but your own thoughts, it's a nice way to re-set your mind. #bushcraft #woodsman #karrimor #adventure #outdoors #woodcraft #wildernessliving #simpleliving https://www.instagram.com/p/CbVfe0Aqsqj/?utm_medium=tumblr
