The Three Principles of Modern Outdoor Survival

7th March 2022

At the end of every episode we share our 3 principles of modern outdoor survival. They seem fairly self-explanatory but, we decided to give you our spin on what they mean to us.

Remember “making good decisions at the right time” means using your knowledge and experience to ensure that your endeavours go the direction which you want.

Prioritising training over shiny new equipment doesn’t mean to not buy equipment which you need, or even want. However it does mean that skills are extremely important and increasing knowledge and skills related to your chosen outdoor endeavour is generally more useful than the latest gadget.

And always remember….Instagram is not your training provider. It can be a source of information when assessed, and it is a fantastic source of inspiration….but it is also full of images which don’t reveal the whole truth about their creator.
