SOLO BUSHCRAFT TRIP IN DENMARK - primitive skills, bow drill, shelter, cooking meat, flint knapping

This is all about bushcraft, wild camping and primitive skills. No talking, just showing you a glimpse of one of the things I love the most - Being out in the Nordic nature with my camera, making a simple camp, starting a fire, making some campfire cooking, doing woodcraft, practice my bushcraft skills and most importantly - reconnecting with nature.

In this video I am in a Danish forest where I have decided to make a simple bushcraft camp. After making a shelter with my tarp, I am starting a friction fire by using a bow drill. It is essential to be able to start a fire in a survival situation, so just to practice the routines and the habit of thinking forward, I am making me a spare friction fire kit. I love doing woodcraft, so maybe it was also just an excuse for actually carving some wood.
To start a fire in these wet conditions I use birch bark and Chaga mushroom to turn the ember into fire.

After getting the camp fire going I have to make a setup for primitive cooking. I make bread over the fire by using fresh sticks, making soup in my Eagle kettle and I am roasting a steak over the embers.

While the food is cooking over the camp fire, I am going to do some nature photography in the meadow and to find water. When returning I practice some flint knapping. I have brought a flint stone and my flint knapping tools, but unfortunately it is getting dark way to fast:)

The rest of the evening is just eating, enjoying nature and relaxing in my primitive bushcraft camp with my dog Bjørn.
