That&#8217;s exactly what your market can do for you — there are people whose skills, hard work, and pride in their craft put quality food on your table, and I enjoy being reminded of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ray Mears is famous for his many tv appearances where he teaches not only survival, but bushcraft. The difference from &#8216;survival&#8217; shows is striking, as Ray attempts to convey the importance of long-term bushcraft and sustainability as practiced by many aboriginal tribes in a variety of different regions. He has always expressed his special love [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking of trading in my folding PakCanoe for a lighter, more maneuverable vessel (I have the 17-footer, but I would be fine with a 16-, or even 15-foot), but not because it has let me down in any way. For any of you who are unsure as to the viability of the PakCanoe [...]]]></description>

I first heard of Pinock in the second season of Ray Mears&#8217; Bushcraft, where he and Ray built an authentic birchbark canoe in a week. They worked on screen again in [...]]]></description>

He makes the point for a common-sense approach to camping, and takes issue with the extremes that some enthusiasts have gone through to erase our existence on the land. [...]]]></description>

The resource that an ebook reader such as the Kindle can give you access to, however, has such potential. I impulse-bought one last week, and have been loading up with guides and references.

		<description><![CDATA[Ontario Parks has a new reservation service that they&#8217;re going to be rolling out in 2011. This means that anybody that normally reserves during the late fall or winter months will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Not really a problem in the winter months, I find, but that&#8217;s only for the backcountry—I&#8217;m not sure [...]]]></description>
