<br />
Week 34 was a preparation week for the biggest trip of 2 weeks solo ski trip call Bear ski.<br />
as part of the preparation, we need to experience and learn how to self rescue from the situation like dropping in o ice water.<br />
<br />

<br />
it was a good practice and not only about rescuing activity but learnt other skills related to dealing with ice.<br />
<br />
Week 35, 56 was the Bear ski trip. We have visited Hammastuntri wilderness area in northern Finnish Lapland. we are very lucky at that time that the snow condition was amazingly perfect for skiing. The teachers were expressing that after all these years, they never have had such a good condition... as "NOT EDUCATIONAL!!" :)<br />
but there was still some challenge and was mostly with myself. gaining confidence but sometime learning to be humble to the nature.<br />

<br />
Back from the bear ski trip, time fly faster than ever. graduation is getting closer and need many graduation works completed. also starting to prepare ourselves to guide exam of wilderness skills and nature knowledge. Lots of times are spend on bird watching and desk studies...<br />
but we also had a one night survival experience day.<br />
dropped off on middle of school forest, pick a spot, build a emergency shelter and spent overnight.<br />
All we needed to accomplish this was whatever we were wearing and a knife.<br />

Yes, have learnt survival skills and mind set, but what I have learnt most from this was<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
"One really does not need much to spent a night in the forest"</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<br />
The next trip is the paddling trip at Jämsänkoski and I will be leaving 19th Monday. after that, comes the wilderness and nature guiding/skill exam then other trip...</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Basically we have created a "get out of your daily life and get refreshed" package.

<span style="font-family: inherit;">there was originally has planned so that we are only going somewhere closer from school... but this year in Finland, we do not have enough snow. especially around south part, we have not seen good snow at all. so needed to drive 11 h up north from Kuru to reach Hossa, where we can have enough snow for </span>proper skiing.</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">How the trip went, that would be better seeing than reading about it, so here is the video. But on this blog, I would like to share about the new </span>equipment<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I have included as part of gear.</span></div>
<div>
<br />
<br />
- Nokian rubber boots:</div>
<div>
This one is different from one I have used in Russian trip. It is the winter boots and functions as a ski boots as well. It is known as the Finnish army winter boots and in my opinion, the best winter boots you can buy. It is well insulated by 1 cm thick 100% wool felt inner and thick shoe sole.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
- ET shelter:</div>

<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k34FQB3-3Hc/UuVeiJGUGvI/AAAAAAAACJI/oD7CdEPtPWI/s1600/new+shelter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-k34FQB3-3Hc/UuVeiJGUGvI/AAAAAAAACJI/oD7CdEPtPWI/s1600/new+shelter.jpg" height="189" width="200" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">3m x 3m tarp.<br />
red: attachment point for loue<br />
blue: folding line for loue</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
I have made this one based on DD hammock design but more attachment point. the point of adding more attachment points is that to make it able to set up the shelter faster and can make it more combine-able with loue.<br />
It came out really satisfactory and setting up is much easier. Unfortunately, I did not have chance to test its capability during this trip, because of the weather was too warm so could not feel the benefit of heat refractive coating.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This time, I was more for the customer service. to be exact, I was at them on the cafe and rental service shop, providing ice skating service on lake Näsi. The cafe was set up on iced lake right next Lake Näsi's light house. It functions as a stopping by place for all the winter sports </span>enthusiasts<span style="font-family: inherit;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Also had chance of </span>accompanying the ice skate trekking as a assistant guide. spending day after day on natural ice was very interesting experience. learning alot about natural ice, enjoy seeing how the ice changes everyday.<br />
here is a video from the ice skate trekking. Hope it will show how wonderful to travel on ice with skate.<br />

<br />
As for wilderness guide and all the traditional woods craft enthusiasts, you really should know well about a knife as a tool. To learn about it, what would be the better way than to make one all by by yourself from scratch? It give you very intimate understanding on what makes a Knife and at same time, you get to learn metal, wood and leather craft basics.<br />
<br />
Because of this reason (... or I am guessing that it is...) we have had forging a basic knife week at school.<br />
<br />
we have started off with basic theory lessons of what involves in knife making. then design one. I have had very clear Idea of what I can do in time and what I wish to make. It is a small version of IWG leuku. the idea of it is to test new ideas and solution of the IWG leuku design. also I wanted smaller more agile knife.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Forging and grinding completed.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Not many new things on overall process, but I got to see and learn details which makes the forging process easier and better. This was very beneficial for me as I never had anyone taught me of how to forge anything. <br />
<br />
About the forging process, one difference I have noticed was the use of water. The one I have experienced on this week was what I could call a "dry forging". basically, throughout the forging, there was absence of water around. My usual forging method uses water for cooling tang to descaling of work. but at this class, there was not even tang cooling. Perhaps it was just because the facility did not have the availability of water, but got me bit interested in.<br />
<br />
<br />
basically, I was the only person with some blacksmith experience but on the end of the week, every one has got some usable knife. Some went after the traditional, some went wild with imagination and all are great looking knives.<br />
<br />
however, here is what I came up on the end.<br />
<br />
I will call this a "IWG Puukko" as contrast to my other one "IWG Leuku"<br />

Here I am trying out different method of knot on making loop. One I used on leuku looked nice and smart, but was not strong enough. So far, this seems to be doing well.<br />

Here is other experimental change I have added on the sheath. left is from Leuku and the Right one is of Puukko.<br />
Notice the puukko's sheath has thickened edge. This was intentionally made, so can use finger to push the sheath. like thumb push on some of kydex sheath.<br />
I have noticed that when the handle or the sheath is wet, time to time the leather sticks to handle causing difficulty of releasing knife. It is not much of a issue because if using 2 hands, then it comes out. but I found that quite annoying, so this is the solution for it.<br />

As can be expected from just by looking at the map, this guiding is not going to easy. I have expected to be tricky to navigate, tough to walk through.<br />
<br />
I have started the day as on guide on tail. keeping track of where we are and my partner was taking lead. The morning part, was also not so easy walking as had quite many up and down and by time time for the lunch break, some people were dragging them feet.<br />
<br />
changing the lead guide after the lunch, I started to lead the group and followed the contour line towards the point where change the bearing to go over the lowest point of the mountain.<br />
<br />
the plan seemed good at that time, but in reality, because of the large rocks along the line plan to take, it was not possible to go as planed. Resulting in descending quite a bit and made it even harder later on....<br />
<br />
However, I have managed to change the bearing in good place and head up the mountain.<br />

Route I took for descent was a bad bad choice. It was just lucky that all those rocks were not as slippy as it could have. if it was, we could have had some injury in the group.<br />
<br />
little before the sun down, I have managed to get the group to the planned camp site, but there was the situation awaiting us and that made my day a "Hell"....<br />
<br />
<br />
because it was very up stream of the water, the expected water sauce was dry. So decided to go towards the lake till find the more suitable location. worst case, it was only about 2km to the lake, so estimated DO-able before dark.... well. read the map wrong. it was much more than 2km to the lake and when reached the lake, it was almost dark.<br />

The last bit of looking for the camp site was truly tough for me. As every one in the group, I was tired. and top of that, I had huge pressure of getting people to the camp site. This combination is dangerous, the mind trick you and I start to doubt myself on every steps.<br />
<br />
but on the end, everyone was happy of the day. had tough walk rewarded by beautiful view and the camp site we picked also had fantastic view.<br />

This trip was constant learning experience. I did use up all the trick and knowledge I have on my sleeve. On some area, pushed my limit to new height.<br />
It was not easy but have enjoined every bit of this trip. perhaps some day, will go back there again all by myself or with real customer.<br />

The location of this excussion was the NE area of <a href="http://www.panparks.org/visit/our-parks/paanajarvi-national-park" target="_blank">Paanajärvi National park</a>. I say NE area, because we did not spent much time in actual national park. it is because of the usage cost and the biggest reason being, there are too much restriction in the park that will not be educational for us.<br />

Leaving Kuru 23rd September in the morning, then over night at hostel in Kuusamo. crossing Fin - Russia border on following morning then trecking and camping from 24th Sept to 2nd Oct. Back to Kuru on 3rd Oct. <br />
<br />
Basically 2 days of trekking and every 3rd day was a break day. In distance, about 60km of walk. Mostly off the trail, many kilometers of bog walking and lots of up and down hill climbing.<br />
<br />
<br />
Crossing the border about 10:00 then reached the Paana village around 1:00. After submitting all the paper work at the parks' visitor center in the village, drove to the entrance of the national park.<br />
Unload the car and gear up for the hike at parking area of ranger station, we headed up quickest way out of the national park.<br />
we did not have much day light time left, but was only 5km walk on the road, should not have any problem getting to the planned camp site.<br />

On this trip, we have had daily guides. Means each day, 2 of the students are taking the guide role to practice our guiding skill. and the lest of the group is the customer, so what ever happens, the customer do not interfere to the guiding work, unless if you want to play the "problematic customer":) and this goes same to the teachers. They have pointed on the beginning of the trip that "They will not interfere unless real shit hits the fan".<br />
You do not realize this till you experience it, but it is quite a pressure to have 14 people relying on you in wilderness.<br />
<br />
However, the day started quite cold day and by the time of setting up camp, we started to have snow falling. it was comes and goes type of falling, but on the following morning, it left some mount of snow on our shelter.<br />

The day 2. I would like to say that it was nice and easy day.... or it was suppose to be according to the plan. in reality, we ended up being lost. for about half of the day, just wondering around trying to find the location where makes some sense, some hint of finding out where we were. but on the end of the day, decided to make camp by the river we came across without knowing of our location. Teachers are keeping cool and just said "No worries, we still have enough food!".</div>

the 3rd day of the trip was a resting day. not moving camp, so everyone are free to do what ever interests. some went up stream to find where we were, some stayed on camp for gear maintenance, relaxing or fixing camp.<br />

Through out this trip, the shelter set up of this way in the picture was most common. One reason was that we all have worked as a pare and everyone was using open shelter... actually, everyone but me was using Luoe shelter from Vihe. I was the only one using Erätoveri. There are so many of advantage on setting up shelter this way. For the heat, fire, comfort and so on and on.<br />

It was not my intention to keep this blog not updated for such a long time, but because of this excursion to Russian wilderness, I have been very busy and simply did not have time to do any thing on blog.<br />
<br />
The excursion took place in Paanajärvi National park area in from 23rd of September - 3rd of October. But for me the excursion as started already from beginning of August because I have volunteered to take part in the Planning Group.<br />
<br />
IWG has several small and large trips included in the course as part of skill training. The small ones are duration of about few day and large ones are about week to two. As usual, the large trips takes more planning, so the course members are assigned to at least one trip to form a Planning group.<br />

The Russian trip was the one of the biggest excursion we have and is not in Finland, There was stressful mount of planning needed to be done.<br />
<br />
Briefly what included in the planning:<br />
Destination study<br />
Correcting materials (Maps, contact information, background of destination...)<br />
Risk assessment<br />
Document arrangements (Permissions and visa)<br />
Rout planing<br />
Time table of trip<br />
Daily time table<br />
Guide assignment (will talk about this later...)<br />
Gear planning<br />
Food planning<br />
and so on and on and on....<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The point is to practice the situation of as if I would have business of organizing the trip like this. Try to plan everything so that the trip goes smooth and fun.<br />
<br />
On the planning process, One tool I found very use full was "how to plan the food". Planing of food has been a little bit of problem for me for quite some time. I use to plan it by experience and what would be nice to eat and carry, means pick up the things whatever way I feel like.<br />
It is OK that way, if the trip is few days and I am alone. But it gets problematic when taking longer trip or need to plan food for several stomachs.<br />
The tool is simple as to calculate how much calories would I need in a day when trekking. Then come up with then menu that fills the need. But there is a problem on actually doing this, which is also need to take in account the weight of food, nutritious value and balance. so, I came up with a excel sheet which automatically calculate those. With this, all I need to do is input the serving wight, Cal/100g and nutritious value. Once all data are in, just juggle around to come up with menu to get daily menu plan, the excel sheet will automatically generate the shopping list and approximate packing weight :)<br />

<br />
As a result, I have got very satisfactory food plan for this excursion. Every day, I have had just enough food which is not board me and kept my energy level well. Also it helped rationing the food well that I had exact mount of food consumed as planed and not needed to carry anything back home, except the emergency food part.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Even thaw, I say it was satisfactory, there are few items I would like to add to next rip.<br />
- butter<br />
- ginger or some kind of flavoring<br />
- salty snacks (i.e. beef jerky)<br />
- more rice in the menu<br />
- more self made dry food. (I had self made dried pork and rice this time.)<br />
<br />
Here is the list of food I have planed for this trip. Some items, I swap it with alternative on the last minute because of availability or weight issue, but more or less the list is what I took with me.<br />

I say slow, but still there was lots of study works needed to be done.<br />
<br />
Starting with flora and fauna study then we have had meadow clearing work then game bird counting on the end of week 3. the works was done using traditional tools like sickle and bill hooks. and the works was done to protect rear <span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, 'Arial New', 'MS P ゴシック', sans-serif; font-size: 13.333333969116211px;">species</span> of flora in he area.<br />
<br />
第3週目は比較的ゆっくりめでした。ゆっくりとは言っても、それなりに宿題などでいそがしいわけですが・・・<br />
<br />
先ずは植物の学習、そして週中には絶滅危惧種保護のボランティア活動として、草原の草刈に参加。伝統的な大鎌を使っての作業、そして週の最終日は狩猟対象鳥の生息状況調査を行いました。<br />
<br />

The game counting was part of our navigation practice. need to navigate through forest as straight line as possible and hope to see some game birds takes off, so we can count the population. I took the first lead on first 2 km to navigate and happy to say, I managed to go very straight. When got to the first target spot, we are dead on. </div>

狩猟対象鳥の生息状況調査。地図上に書かれた一辺4㌔の三角のルートを、出来るだけ正確に歩き、飛び出した鳥の数を数える作業です。ナヴィゲーションの練習を兼ねるので、一番先にナヴィゲーションのリードを取らさせていただきました。</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
結果、最初の目標2キロのリード交代地点まで、ドンピシャのナビゲーションに成功!かなりうれしかったです。 </div>

Week 4 was a super busy week. basically we all cook as much different food as possible and eat them all!:) but of cause, it was guided by teacher and we have had wonder full guest instructor for this week. His name is Turkka Aaltonen. He is the most respected survival and wild food instructor in Finland There cant be any better instructor for this week's topic.<br />
<br />
he is like wilderness encyclopedia and I had hard time keeping up to pick up all the knowledge he had to share with us. It was a most intense learning week and I lucky to spend as much time as I could to talk, ask, share of our knowledge.<br />
We will have one more week with him in later time, and I am very much looking forward to it.<br />
<br />
第4週目はとてつもなく忙しい週でした。やったことといえば出来るだけ多くのレシピを料理し、食う!なのですが、講師の指導の下に行うとただ単に作って食えばよいわけではなくなります。しかもこの週はゲスト講師、TurkkaAaltonenさんによるもの。たぶん名前知らない方のほうが多いと思いますが、この方、フィンランドを代表するサバイバルとワイルドフードのインストラクターでして、簡単に言ってしまうと「フィンランドのレイミアーズ」、もしくは「フィンランドのモール・コハンスキ」。彼の言うことなすことすべてが貴重な知識ですので気が抜けません。一週間、三歩下がってベッタリと後を追いかけて学習、吸収してきました。<br />
ラッキーなことに、Turkkaさんは日本の里山カルチャーに興味を持っていられるようで、休憩時間になるたびに二人座してじっくりと、お互いの知識交換をする機会にも恵まれました。勿論、全く話したり無いですw<br />
彼の授業は冬前にもう一度あるので今から楽しみです。<br />

Trees of Britain & Northern Europe (ISBN 0-00-219213-6) Good illustration and has good mount of information you need to ID trees.<br />
<br />
Mushrooms and Toadstools of Britain & Europe (ISBN 0-00-219994-7) This book covers all I want to ID. Color Photo is used and have good information, but detail of mushroom is not seen well on some, and quite many have common names are missing. Book is easy to use and small enough to carry in pocket or bag.<br />

IWGの一週めはどたばたで、学校とその周辺のオリエンテーション、実際の授業そして第2週目の計画であっという間に過ぎました。<br />
植物の学習に使っている本を上に紹介しておきます。興味のある方は探してみてください。<br />
<br />
一週目のまとめビデオ(Video is only in JPN. I am talking about the summery of week 1 and pack contents for week 2 )<br />

<br />
<br />
Then The week 2 was spent in forest. learning basic camp skill with open shelter, fire making, use of cutting tools. The school teaches traditional skill, so the policy is "NO Tent!". well, that is the reason I am happy attending this school :)<br />
The major part of week was spent learning how to navigate on off the trail with map and compass. It was really lots to learn there and had good practice to better my navigation skill.<br />
Have posted some videos from the camp. The first one is only in JPN but hope you enjoy! (second part has ENG sub!)<br />
<br />
2週目はフォレスト・ウィーク。森で寝泊りし、キャンプの基本、刃物の扱い方、焚き火の基本、ナビゲーションの基本を学びました。この学校が教えるのはトラディショナル・スキル。ですので基本的にテントは禁止、オープンシェルターを推奨しています。<br />
フォレスト・ウィークで最も重要だったのはナビゲーション。トレールを使わず、地図とコンパスのみで森を歩きぬく練習をほぼ毎日のように行いました。様子はビデオにまとめてありますのどうぞ!<br />

I guess I just need to the lest along the way. but as for the update needed on the gears, I have got the final bit of update / modification completed, so that will be the topic of this post.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtfYFqtI4IXioTjpfgsnUT1i4XTiS1hyphenhyphenC0WunWEVmzAxbuTdLpJYiDAbjInA_3Il7EALCyTgJQyyWcfPwSTi5AL2wJplvemdkUvCOBweFhkpWVwUBeLA2jh3ee3aESFTGR0Qman-EGkQ/s1600/IMG_6768.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtfYFqtI4IXioTjpfgsnUT1i4XTiS1hyphenhyphenC0WunWEVmzAxbuTdLpJYiDAbjInA_3Il7EALCyTgJQyyWcfPwSTi5AL2wJplvemdkUvCOBweFhkpWVwUBeLA2jh3ee3aESFTGR0Qman-EGkQ/s200/IMG_6768.JPG" width="200" /></a>3 items have been added or modified.<br /> - Shelter<br /> - Large back pack.<br /> - Cook kit<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div> - 1. Shelter.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oe5LGSxQfMU/UgP4zhExjKI/AAAAAAAABzU/SaRgJMd_lsQ/s1600/IMG_6769.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oe5LGSxQfMU/UgP4zhExjKI/AAAAAAAABzU/SaRgJMd_lsQ/s200/IMG_6769.JPG" width="200" /></a>This is not a new addition but is a modification.<br />The shelter of my choice at this moment is a 3m x 3m tarp from DD hammocks. I really like this versatility and size.<br />The modification made was on cordage which used with the tarp. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I like using 550 cord as a ridge line so no change on that part, but have changed the color of it from olive to orange. the reason for this is from now on, I will have many trips, but with group of people. so to avoid someone choking or hanging from neck on my ridge line, I choose some standing out color.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Same thing on the guy line. I am keeping the same 2mm dymeema cord, but attached the orange 550 cord as a flag, so it will stands out better.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">- 2.

It is a Swedish army LK 70 rucksack. I have looked for and tried quite many rucksacks, but honestly, nothing felt right except the one rucksack from Fjallraven. But the price was out of my budget. Then the <a href="http://weekendwoodsman.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Weekend Woodsman</a> has recommended me on checking this LK 70. Thanks to <a href="http://www.varusteleka.com/en" target="_blank">Varusteleka </a>for having the product and good returning policy, I too chance and ordered without trying it on.</div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The pack capacity is 70l, cotton canvas, outer flame. according to the shop page, <i>This was designed by Haglöfs sometime back in the 60's for the Swedish army. </i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">When I got the product, I was hoping that the condition was little bit better. But is still very much serviceable condition and when I tried it, I felt as good as trying that Fjallraven rucksack. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KnS1ubd-zpY/UgP4ywKE8NI/AAAAAAAABzA/pFyhTV5t4Ao/s1600/IMG_4860.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KnS1ubd-zpY/UgP4ywKE8NI/AAAAAAAABzA/pFyhTV5t4Ao/s320/IMG_4860.JPG" width="206" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">loaded up 25kg for test. It was lightest 25kg load. </td></tr></tbody></table><br />If you ignore that it is old and need some fixing, this pack is as good as any latest model you find from sports shop selection. In someway, This one is even better because after 50 years, it still functions perfectly.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />but some miner fixing was needed to make this better. First fixing was inner closer pull. As can see, it was quite damaged and the cord is starting to ripping the closer. so have packed it with leather, reinforcing the cord hole with eyelet. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-k7uR8Rtf7og/UgP4y199q3I/AAAAAAAABzE/_lQ2pKKfBDk/s1600/IMG_4956.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-k7uR8Rtf7og/UgP4y199q3I/AAAAAAAABzE/_lQ2pKKfBDk/s200/IMG_4956.JPG" width="195" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRnzAzXa1rLudiPnTT5kGEZTN0cRWVCVGydGIjibFOXEaJXhbUmCBFMf8wNqWNCaQtIezM593udI_lTgIJpB5Mb-6fJr-ZIkYf58dkI5eYgGJqoAhXalW41XqfzpcJAs_FpRY02MUSg/s1600/IMG_6779.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRnzAzXa1rLudiPnTT5kGEZTN0cRWVCVGydGIjibFOXEaJXhbUmCBFMf8wNqWNCaQtIezM593udI_lTgIJpB5Mb-6fJr-ZIkYf58dkI5eYgGJqoAhXalW41XqfzpcJAs_FpRY02MUSg/s200/IMG_6779.JPG" width="150" /></a></div><br /><br />next modification was adding modern design. the chest strap. this makes huge difference in comfort but back in the day, this simple wonder was not invented yet, so need to add.<br />transplanting some material from Finnish gas mask bag to make webbing to hold the strap in place.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1ez4eejYT_oY40eDaTUY-lni1Y3Vhy_JPoi-DelXkPRfaYGWcEduUU9OfjYC2ikqsFKGnb3tldmnozJXsHSJ_kh4bzRpA55Ckgop4tzAuvMjAmuVCB3kjFHOewB23VvgbVfM4o7iHIg/s1600/IMG_6777.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1ez4eejYT_oY40eDaTUY-lni1Y3Vhy_JPoi-DelXkPRfaYGWcEduUU9OfjYC2ikqsFKGnb3tldmnozJXsHSJ_kh4bzRpA55Ckgop4tzAuvMjAmuVCB3kjFHOewB23VvgbVfM4o7iHIg/s320/IMG_6777.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />next work was on the canvas.

Originally the buckle of this part is placed out side the pack. but then the buckle gets on the way so cannot make tight strapping. change that so the buckle is now inside the pack, makes it very nice tight strapping. also this made the pack more stable on frame.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KKSH_WqzMig/UgP41Jr_4WI/AAAAAAAABz0/eJadDJFDwo4/s1600/IMG_6776.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KKSH_WqzMig/UgP41Jr_4WI/AAAAAAAABz0/eJadDJFDwo4/s320/IMG_6776.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br />- 3.

It is must, because if a wilderness guide was asked on the job to ID some plant and he goes "... sorry, I am not familiar with this one...." to most of <span style="background-color: white;">species</span>, then what would be a point on being a Wilderness guide. </span><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">The course and the examination required us to learn only important ones in Finland, so that is not that bad I though... till I saw the list. It covers the number of 350 species and need to learn them in 10 month, so that will make about 1 - 2 </span>species per day.<span style="font-family: inherit;"> But as you can imagine, the best time to learn them are in summer time, so I have even shorter time to experience it to learn.</span><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">I love learning the way of nature, but one thing I do not like is to sit on the desk to study. The only time I like sitting on desk is when updating my blog and making knives, so this is my way of moving my lazy study ass </span>to start studying them: <span style="font-family: inherit;">I will be posting 5 species per day on my blog!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">(From the day 2, I will not include this series in IWG category.

約2週間ほど前になりますが、ブッシュクラフトフィンランドのメンバーと共に、ワイルドフードの勉強会に参加してきました。<br />
<br />
ワイルドフード、つまりはその辺の自然から直接入手できる食材。よく知られた名前で言うと山菜、スパーフード、食える雑草wということになります。<br />
<br />
もって言った道具は、通常のデイハイク用のセット+スウェーデン軍飯盒、追加食材用に糒(ホシイイ)。そして勉強会ですのでメモ用ノート・・・<br />
なのですが、前回の勉強会での失敗、『写真とメモでは、後で自然界で見ても自身もってIDできない』事に気がつきました。そこで、ノートに新聞紙を切った物を10枚ほど追加。覚えたい植物を採取し、ここに挟んでサンプルとしました。<br />
