If you’ve ever felt like camping advice online is either too basic or way too complicated, this is for you.
Here’s the promise: follow the system and you’ll know what to do before you go, what to watch for while you’re out, and how to adapt when conditions change — so your trips feel steady instead of stressful.
I teach real-world outdoor skills in the right order (no guessing, no chaos):
🏕️ planning + packing
🧭 navigation (“stay found”)
🏕️ campcraft + setup
🌦️ weather + conditions
💧 water + risk basics
🛶 canoe camping + river trips
🔥 fire + camp systems
🍳 camp cooking (the “expedition kitchen” stuff)
This isn’t entertainment or theory — it’s field-tested systems and reps you can actually use, taught step by step.
Beginner-safe. Experience-respecting.
Start here: take Course 1 (Blackwater Basics) and drop your first Plan Check in the group.
(And if you’re into trip videos too, I run Blackwater Outdoor Journeys on YouTube.) 🎥🌲
Where the Map Ends, The WILD begins!!
Stay Rugged.
