Great to spend time learning from Ray Mears, going back to the fundamentals of survival skills and the knowledge behind them.
One of the highlights was fire by friction — not simply seeing it done, but hearing Ray talk through the process, breaking down the technique and explaining the small details that make all the difference.
Here are a few more pictures showing the breakdown of the fire-by-friction method he talked us through. 🔥
There’s something incredibly valuable about stripping survival back to the fundamentals: understanding the materials, the technique, and the patience required to create fire from nothing but what you have around you.
