how to survive in the bush on the coast and in the mountains of NZ...A very old MSC book that is chocker block full of stuff.
if my memory serves me correctly it was written by a RAF pilot who crashed in remote country and walked out...realizing the need for manual for others to follow.
NZ Deerstalkers Assn used to run very good bushcraft weekends for junior members. Contact your local branch to see if they still do it, and if not, why not?
Contact your nearest NZ Mountain Safety Council office- they sell an excellent "Bushcraft" manual. It's not expensive.
Yes, and they run weekend courses as well.
That old manual is really worth getting it’s got loads of stuff in it that is not taught today but is still very relevant.
It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
