Just make sure while you're attempting to find mushrooms to eat that something BIGGER doesn't come along and tries to eat you......

exactly why i don't camp alone anymore np w/bears, big problems w/2 legged kind..i'm afraid there isn't a gun big enough to make me feel safe, you have to sleep sometime. i thought of trip wires but they aren't reliable if someone is looking for them..no easy answers

Now this intrigues me given my fondness for eating right out of the carton with plastic utensils and tossing everything into the nearest trash can!

Are these made from heavy branches/twigs? Inquiring minds are dying to know....

also..fyi, on second thoughts..you should strip the bark off of any tree or tree branch you will be using for a makeshift grill etc (before you begin making) as bark will(often)give a bitter or unpleasant flavor to anything you are grilling. Also do remember to soak your wood a good 30mins to 1hr. so that you don't burn away your grill before your food is cooked.

1st rule-even if you are certain you KNOW a mushroom. Never eat the whole thing. Eat a small bit of it and wait an hour. If nothing goes wrong, it might be ok. Get a good guidebook>>, join a wild mushroom club..i'll post some other things i'm learning as i go along

Default Learn to Keep Your Cool in Stressful Situations....

Sometimes it’s not enough to master every bushcraft skill if your mental state isn’t suited for the outdoors.


I'm thinking this just may apply to me.........
