Ep 18: The Art of Doing Without

1 year ago
316

Getting by in the woods with less. The art of doing without. Distinguishing luxuries from true necessities. More talk about the fake, play-pretend 'bushcrafters' out there. The Bear Grylls Bullcrap Effect. What being out in real backcountry or wilderness really means. Learning to play the Cost/Benefit game. Leaving one reality for another. Stories about how I did so much with so little while growing up in the Appalachian woods. Surviving for real with wild edibles and even a goose egg. A big discussion about coffee in the woods. Learning to go without stools, chairs, stoves, sleeping pads and more. Mr. Princess-Poo and his pajamas, sleeping mask, and audiobooks. Using rum to power an alcohol stove.
