Great video Stoker, I enjoyed it very much. These are the things I used to stress to my troops when giving them land nav instructions. I am trying to pass it on to my grandkids now. Your instructions were right on track. Stay stoked Top.
Thank you very much for finally including an actual training video on your channel. I was beginning to worry that we had already learned all there was to know. At least now I can get back to learning how to master my craft.
Honing your skills should always involve 50% fundamental, 35% intermediate and 15% advanced exercises (assuming of course that you've mastered the easier tasks). You can always practice reminding yourself of the simple bits so that you _can't_ forget them when you're distracted.
I would like to learn how to know how to navigate without technology, because we never know when that will become unavailable. Learning how to move and navigate without a compass or GPS is crucial in a grid down situation, if we decide to move that is.
I’ve explored all the mountains around me, and I don’t carry a compass, I just go out randomly and go the general way back lol, I use land marks or ridge lines and sometimes I follow streams/creeks so there’s no way to get lost, just follow it back, no way to learn then just going out and knowing the land around you, me and my buddies have a saying “you never get lost, it’s just an adventure” haha
@@outdoorvideoswithbrad I've been lost hunting before and that's what I did. I know where North is and I knew that my truck was south east. It was getting dark so I followed the sun as far as I could and followed the creek back to the black top road. I was about 3 miles from my truck..lol I was squirrel hunting and wasn't paying attention to where I was until it started getting really dark in the woods. Thankfully I was prepared to stay in the woods if I had to.
@ h e c k ya man, don’t worry I’ve done the same except I was just hiking, in my area I know if i follow a stream down the mountain I’ll hit a road eventually lol, or just simply walking down the mountain, and give me a general idea, what did our ancestors do? On long hunting trips, not like they could afford or obtain a compass, to be honest a compass would just make me get lost lol, I can read and make maps tho, I realize it depends on your territory, but I’ve been to new places and just did the same things

Enough, enough, enough! Of this survival stuff! Go do something productive like taking care of your grandchildren!
how better to take care of my grandchildren than teaching them how to survive and thrive, come what may?
