This weekend will be our first of the year introduction to Bushcraft Weekend campout. We will be showing how to set up a camp in a bushcraft style. We welcome anyone who wants to check out some what it is we will be teaching at our courses. We will demonstrate a lot of different skills this weekend. Fire building, water procurement and treatment, shelters and gear.
Come see what the instructors carry in their packs. See how we set up our camps. Enjoy friendship around the campfire. Learn some new skills. Get a taste of what the courses will entail at a slower pace. This weekend will give you a taste of what to expect during a course, how to pack and what to leave at home.
We will be hiking in about a 1/2 mile, so pack light. Bring your own food and a way to treat your water, there is a stream close by but will need to be treated. A tent is not required, and we will show you how to set up a tarp to be very comfortable. Several of us will have a few different hammocks for you to check out. To me, a hammock is the only way to camp! I will cover why i hang, the benefits and the drawbacks.
We will be meeting at the Port Huron State Game Area parking lot on Metcalf rd at 9am. We will be hiking in shortly after that. Call Jeff at (734) 286-4096 for further details and reserve your camping spot. Come out for the day or spend the night with Great Lakes Bushcraft!
