    I think the way to being not only a good outdoorsman but successful in life in general is to remain teachable. Congratulations on finishing the course. Love your channel.

    Congratulations on completing the course! Thanks for sharing this video with us. I have always wanted to attend a survival course and this one looks like a winner especially with Dave Canterbury at the helm. I'm rather hesitant due to my age which is 71. I quit the long treks of backpacking (five continents) as the treks got more difficult to complete. Finding that bushcraft camping can be rewarding and fun, I've pursued it for the past year learning as I go from mistakes, trial and error and watching UA-cam videos by veterans of the field. It's taken me this past year to acquire the essential gear and thanks to your video there are a couple of items I need to find.

    When you say it isn't cheap, I am reminded of the saying
    'You get what you pay for'
    I have looked at the price on the website and I agree, it is pricing, but the knowledge and experience that you get is well worth the price. I would save up the money for all the items it would need - some millitary surplus, WWII items mixed with some modern day items and food (broken down MREs and other food stuffs either bought or home made - than for the course and to get there. Thanks for a good review. Hope you are doing well, take care.

    The ideal place for a survival course is a small area of woods next door to a drive-in theater, and about a quarter mile from your house, with a McDonalds on one side, a Wendy's on the other, a Long John Silvers in the background and a Kentucky Fried Chicken just across the street. Now buddy that's what you call "ruffin' it"!!!

The chances of another Cliff Stewart commenting on a video of yours is crazy. I get sidetracked thinking about food as well. Must be something about us people named Cliff Stewart hahaha.

    With today's gear fire is unnecessary if you are just packing a week or so and going to a known location. If you don't mind being seen fire is without a doubt one of the most important tools in the skill bag. Good video, Thank you.

    Thanks for sharing this video! I will be taking this class in July this year. Question 1: Does the tent or hammock stay at the campsite or do you have to carry it with you during the class? Question 2: Should I bring stakes or should I not as they are not in the list?

    • @UglyTent
      @UglyTent  4 роки тому +2

      He allowed us to stay at the campsite for the first two night. After that pack up, take it to the car and carry what you need. You can always make stakes, but I took a few small lightweight ones.

      I didn’t give any secrets of the course away. They pack it full of information and learning. So the little snippets I recorded doesn’t take away from anything. It isn’t cheap, but for me it worked out. I hope it works out for you as well eventually.

    • @UglyTent
      @UglyTent  4 роки тому +1

      Everyone had a wool blanket, we used it for other things in the class. Also they do a gear inspection at the very beginning to ensure everyone has the 10 Cs
