In this somewhat different episode, Darwin TV joined us for an afternoon on a Darwin 7 day Modules 1 and 2 Bushcraft Survival Course. This was day 5 of the 7 day program.
The videos shows a glimpse of natural navigation, natural shelter construction, water collection using a transpiration bag; water, filtering, paperbark wrapping and the use of flint and steel for fire making.
Thanks to Royce and Fox for putting this together.
