What You Need to Survive Outdoors

Why I practice bushcraft & survival

I'm a keen camper, but I'm certainly not as hardy as the likes of Ray Mears or Bear Grylls. For me it's fair weather all the way.

But a few of my tougher camping buddies were discussing what they would need, as a minimum, in order to spend a few nights outdoors at this time of year in the UK (its springtime and still very cold at night).

We concluded that the bare essentials would consist of shelter, somewhere warm to sleep and the means to create fire and find food and water. So the outcome of the beer fuelled conversation has been the challenge for us to spend two days and nights surviving and sleeping outdoors.

Just over a pound? Wow! This is a great bag for summer hikes or in areas where it doesn't get too cold.

Best Advice for Your Camping Holiday

The first thing you need to do before setting off for any camping trip is to produce a check list whether your going for a couple of days or for a whole week. You will need to think about such items as tents, sleeping bags, extra blankets, firewood and cooking equipment. Talking from experience I find preparing a night in advance is idyllic so you’re not rushing on the day and forgetting to put those essential items on the list.

Just before heading off on your camping trip it will also be a good idea to research what kind of services the camp site has to offer, such as canteens or whether they allow any pets on site. I always try to leave enough time between departing the house and journeying to the camp site so I can unwind as packing a car and remembering all the necessary gear can be very stressful.
