Big Buck Bush Craft
Bush craft is the art of surviving with craftsmanship, leaving no trace and transferring the knowledge to the next generation.
Darryl Thomson is the founder of Big Buck Bush Craft. Darryl was born and raised in the prairies where he enjoyed regular camping, fishing and exploring activities.
He spent a couple summers in Kelowna BC with cousins and returned to stay and explore.
Early on, in his backwoods hikes, bike rides and ski trips he realized how ill prepared he was. That realization found him seeking out bushcraft experts, books and gear which then became a lifetime of learning the craft of how to survive in the wilderness.
Darryl states that good backcountry skills come from practice and going on camping and hiking trips with family and friends as a bug out practice where you discover what is really needed and whati is not practical or unnecessary.
