Made popular by shows such as Man vs Wild<\/strong>, In the wild<\/strong> or through the stories of Mike Horn<\/strong>, survivalism has been on the rise in recent years. Among the various "activities" related to the world of survival, we find the Bushcraft<\/strong> (or woodcraft) which has the principle of living in the middle of the forest while disturbing it as little as possible. For fans of Bivouac<\/strong>, these techniques are also very valuable. But, behind the fashion phenomenon, these practices require real know-how and real knowledge. So, whether you are a beginner or an experienced adventurer, here is 6 things to know about Bushcraft<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Once night falls, the absence of fire can be catastrophic in certain situations. There are several techniques for obtaining the precious little flame (friction, percussion, etc.).

This item is the number 1 essential tool to have with your survival equipment<\/strong>.<\/p>

When preparing your survival equipment<\/strong> It is essential to anticipate your drinking water management at all times on the bivouac<\/strong>. Everyone knows that you only live a few days without water and one of the golden rules of bushcraft<\/strong> it is: having drinking water.<\/p>

There SOL brand<\/strong> specialized insurvival equipment <\/strong>offers a whole range of products that will allow you to access drinking water, whatever your constraints.<\/p>

Of course, there are several ways to obtain drinking water, the simplest being to carry a water tank<\/strong><\/a> or a insulated bottle<\/strong><\/a>. But in some cases, you have to stock up on water and make do with what you find on site. For this scenario, there are a variety of survival accessories such as filter straws<\/strong> or the filter bottles<\/strong><\/a>.

There are many ways to shelter when you are in the wilderness. Whatever the technique used, you should never neglect the importance of your shelter. The most comfortable when you\u00a0bivouac<\/strong>, it is of course the tent! It protects from water, mosquitoes, sun and many other things. If you opt for the tent option, we can only recommend the\u00a0MSR bivouac tents<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0which is a reference brand for bivouacs and outdoor activities. The\u00a0Hubba Hubba Nx<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Hubba nx solo<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Elixir 4<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Habit 6<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0are flagship models of the brand. Do not hesitate to consult our offers of\u00a0bivouac tent rentals<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0And\u00a0customizable packs<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0to learn more.<\/p>

For minimalists, there are lighter alternatives. For those who do not want to be encumbered by a tent, there are Tarps which are ultra-resistant canvases that will protect you from bad weather and the sun. We recommend the Tarp Sea to Summit<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0which is an excellent product.<\/p>

Finally, for the more adventurous among you, the forest is full of resources to build a quality shelter (wood, foliage, moss, etc.). Be careful, however, to make sure you bring the right tools to exploit them (survival knife, multi-function shovel, multi-function hatchet, etc.)\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

It's obvious that when you're in the middle of vast natural spaces, you need to be able to orient yourself. For that, there's nothing more effective than a good compass. It will be your best friend when it comes to orienting yourself correctly. Among the wide choice of compasses available on the market, we fell in love with The Sol Map Compass<\/strong><\/a> which has the advantage of having a very useful little mirror.<\/p>

In addition to this wonderful tool, nature offers many ways to find one's way in space. The stars, the moon, rivers, and relief are all elements that it is useful to learn to use to find one's way.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Of course, we are not all at this level of adventure, but nevertheless, we need calories! \u00a0<\/p>

Here again, there are several schools of thought. Purists will opt for fishing, hunting and gathering when others will take a little food with them. Whatever its origin, it must be able to be prepared. And for that, the stove<\/strong><\/a> and the cooking pot<\/strong><\/a> will be your best allies!<\/p>
