Wilderness Skills on VideoJug

Some months ago, The Wilderness Foundation shared a short slide-show on VideoJug documenting the efforts of some of our volunteers building a basic one-man shelter ... It turned out to be popular well beyond expectations (almost 900 viewings as of today).

Although we're not entirely sure if it is related, VideoJug have now created a whole series of Wilderness/Bushcraft related instructional videos!

Here's just one - We'll be featuring more in the coming weeks, but if you can't wait for that - head straight to VideoJug here.
