#AskPaulKirtley 94 – Seasonal Kit Tweaks, Woodcraft Pioneers, Woodland Access and Some Career Advice

Paul Kirtley Comments 1 comment

In this episode of #AskPaulKirtley I begin with a practical question about how to adapt a bushcraft camping outfit for different seasons, and what really needs to change as conditions shift. From there, I take a step back and look at what we can learn from the early woodcraft pioneers, particularly their emphasis on skills and knowledge of nature over equipment. I also answer a question about travelling internationally with knives and axes, before moving on to a question on how to gain access to private woodland. Last, but certainly not least, I address a question about considering bushcraft as a career.

As always, thanks for the great questions and your continued support of this series.

    I really appreciate the amount of knowledge and experience you share here, Paul. It’s encouraging to see people putting so much effort into helping others develop practical outdoor skills rather than simply telling them what equipment to buy.

    I’ve recently started building Survival Guides UK, an independent outdoor skills learning resource designed to help people develop their knowledge step by step, from the fundamentals through to more advanced skills. There’s a particular emphasis on practical learning, challenges and giving people a reason to keep developing their abilities.

    There’s a real need for good, accessible outdoor education, and it’s great to see others helping people build that confidence and competence outdoors. I’m looking forward to seeing how the wider outdoor learning community continues to grow.
