went out today for some outdoor fun

[Sharp_newbie]

Today i Received my Christmas exchange gift from Bushman5 (we had an exchange on the Canadian forum.) and decided to go out and try it out.

Here are the pictures

Here is the dead tree i decided to stop at...

Off to the side i saw an opportunity to make a good shelter

half finished (i did not stick around to finish it because it was getting dark and i had to be back for supper (as per the misses)

Inside looking out

With the shelter built I decided to get down to the fire making with My new kit

first i built a table, out of some wood and a ton of old mans beard, so that i could start my fire off of the ground.

The Generous kit gifted to me from Bushman5 (Thanks again bro)

Tinder Bundle

And away she goes
(this image came out blue with no filter, made for a really cool fire picture)

Knifes used for the day where my Scrapyard Dog Yard guard and My New Spyderco knife from Bushma5

I Really had a lot of fun and saw A lot of tracks, the area i went to is hardly used by people in the winter so it was just me, too bad i didn't see any animals, maybe if i do an overnight there i will have better luck.

More picture below...

No sir it is a Medico (if it was the brand you where looking for.) My pockets are a bit light so i had to go with a cheaper pipe, but a good brier none the less.
