In this video, I will be going through my clothing and kit list for the Hunter Gatherer Challenge run by Joe O'Leary at Wilderness Survival Skills. There is a strict, very limited list of kit to take on this challenge to encourage you to think about finding and making what you need in order to survive for an extended period of time in the wild. This includes shelter making, making a bed, making fire, finding and purifying water, gathering food and making a primitive hunting weapon. My personal choices were based on previous experience and preferences built up over a long period of time and they worked well for me.
The Hunter Gatherer challenge is a four day, four night primitive wilderness survival challenge set amongst a vast woodland area in Wiltshire, South West England. It is tough trial, designed to test your existing knowledge and skills, as well as your mental and physical endurance.
I hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

I learned to knap obsidian back in college-- no flint here. The only time I ever use it, amazingly, is in the UK-- airline fascists always take my little scissors and pen-knife. Eventually when out and about outside of London I'll find some flint and make a few little blades. Can be really helpful when trying to get into some unobliging food packaging. Each one becomes a fun little souvenir. Cheers,

I forgot about the making of wool blanket clothing on this channel. Love it

It's possible to spend a small fortune on 'bug-out' kit trying to cover every eventuality and I'd probably expire from exhaustion carrying the weight of it all! Effectively, Simon says "The more you know the less you need". Thanks for the lesson.

@steveanderson6523 Год назад

Couldn't agree more Dave. BTW,is that Jack Hargreaves' pic you're using? He was my hero when i was a kid in the seventies.👍

@SturleyArt Год назад

Great insight, thanks for sharing. Your emergency bag was especially interesting.

Mad respect to you Sir. Spending that much time in the woods with that little kit is just awesome, well done. I really enjoyed watching your skills.

Nice video Simon, and very useful :) Thanks

@jamesellsworth9673 4 года назад

Every piece of your kit 'worked overtime' for you on the challenge. It helped that you added in personal skills to make such an effective bow and arrow system, winning supplementary food items. You organized so much using that Zebra billy: boiling, baking, pounding acorns and the like. I might not have got my head around when to use the billy to boil water, when to use it to forage or even to realize that there was something out there that I could bake in it.

Just stumbled across your show and enjoying it. Not being negative but in a really life emergency you’ll just have the shirt on your back - good video thou 👍

I buy teeny weeny little Vaseline containers (and I mean teeny-weeny!). I decant the contents into my main Vaseline container, wash them out and put meds in them. One I leave with Vaseline in it. The other contains Mylocort which is a cortisone bite and itch cream. The third contains wound sterilization cream. They are TINY - novelties, really. My four Buscopan tablets I sealed into a tiny bit of drinking straw. My paracetamol and Voltaren tablets go into a VERY small pill container. Its not weight I object to - its unneccesary VOLUME.
