I've been looking at getting more into bushcraft for at least the past couple of years. Basically bushcraft is the idea of having and employing wilderness skills. Wikipedia says this,
Bushcraft is about thriving in the natural environment, and the acquisition of the skills and knowledge to do so. Bushcraft skills include firecraft, tracking, hunting, fishing, shelter-building, the use of tools such as knives and axes, foraging, hand-carving wood, container construction from natural materials, and rope and twine-making, among others.

I found some online "classes" at www.bushcraftusa.com that they call bushclass. I'm hoping to work my way through the three levels of training, if for no other reason than to have some goals to push me to get outside.
I'll also be posting up my experiences of and progress through the various classes. As I've looked over the curriculum I think it's definitely possible. So anyway here it goes.
Get out there!
