Have Bushcraft Students Changed in the Last 20 Years?

In this video I answer a question about whether bushcraft students have changed over the past 15-20 years. I share my reflections on: 🌲 Why today’s learners often arrive with more awareness but less hands-on experience. 🌲 The influence of YouTube, smartphones, and social media on bushcraft learning. 🌲 The challenges of shorter attention spans and less patience with physical skills. 🌲 How modern students sometimes arrive better equipped — but not always better prepared. 🌲 Why bushcraft is ultimately about knowledge of nature, not expensive kit.
