Overlevelsesteknikker i naturen

Bushcraft er viden og færdigheder. Viden om naturens ressourcer på bæredygtig vis og færdigheder til at kunne tage på tur i vildmarken og klare sig med relativt lidt udstyr og bruge sine omgivelser til at opretholde en god levestandard i kortere eller længere tid. Bushcraft ser ofte tilbage på gamle traditioner og håndværk, helt tilbage til stenalderen, og blander moderne viden med disse gamle veldokumenterede metoder. Disse nære naturoplevelser og forståelsen for naturen i det hele taget giver ikke bare færdigheder til at kunne klare sig i vildmarken, men indvirker også positivt på vores ellers travle og stressede hverdag. Bogen giver læseren et dybdegående indblik i, hvordan man kan klare sig i naturen, og kommer ind på alt fra valg af udstyr, regler for adgang til naturen, ild og båltændning til primitiv madlavning, spiselige og brugbare planter, hvordan man finder en god lejrplads, sikkerhed, primitiv førstehjælp og masser af projekter som fx at bygge en stol, snitte en ske, lave en rammesav og meget mere. Bogen henvender sig til såvel nye i bushcraftverdenen som til erfarne, som ønsker inspiration til kommende ture. Den er lavet, så den kan bruges som opslagsværk i en han- dy størrelse til rygsækken, og er fyldt med stemningsfulde og inspirerende turbilleder, ’how to’-skitser og forklaringer, som giver læseren mulighed for selv at tage på tur og udleve vildmarkseventyret, uanset om det er i baghaven eller Canadas ødemark.

Det er blevet populært at vandre. Flere og flere vil ud i naturen, mærke terrænet og sætte tempoet ned, så der er masser af overskud til at nyde den fulde oplevelse. Nogle drømmer om at sove under åben himmel, og måltider i det fri hører naturligvis med. Men hvordan får man styr på det hele og kommer godt i gang, hvis man ikke har prøvet det før?Denne bog giver svarene på det hele. Den er skrevet til den læser, der drømmer om at mærke friheden ved at komme ud i naturen – enten over flere dage med ‘sit hjem på ryggen’ eller på de lidt kortere ture med madpakke og varm kaffe. Udgangspunktet er at give læseren de basale færdigheder, der skal til for trygt og sikkert at kunne opholde sig, vandre og overnatte i det fri, og læseren rustes til at vurdere egne behov og kunne pakke og indstille sin rygsæk efter dette.Bogen gennemgår de forholdsregler, der er nødvendige, hvis man skal holde sig mæt, varm og tør i naturen, og giver input og viden til at vælge det rette friluftsudstyr, som netop passer til den enkeltes behov. Der vil også være svar på, hvad man fx har brug for, når man på egen hånd skal finde vej med kort og kompas, hvis man får en vabel, bliver stukket af en hveps, og hvad der ellers er af små udfordringer.

Krisebevidstheden i Danmark er blevet større hos mange, fordi verden har været ramt af en global pandemi, der er krig tæt på kontinentet og grundet politiske uroligheder i flere lande. Men hvad ville du gøre, hvis strømmen går eller varmen forsvinder? Hvor længe vil du kunne klare dig i isoleret i eget hjem? I Prepperens håndbog fortæller friluftsvejleder Mette Mortensen, kendt fra DR1-programmet Alene i Vildmarken, hvad det vil sige at være prepper. Bogen er en guide til at kunne klare sig selv i kortere og længere tid og rummer vigtige råd og lister, så man kan tage de fornødne forholdsregler i tilfælde af, at Danmark bliver ramt af en krise eller nødsituation, der f.eks. sætter strømforsyningen ud af spil. Det handler ikke om at være katastrofefokuseret, men om almindelig sund fornuft. Og med en ganske lille indsats kan vi hver og især gøre en stor forskel.

Alt, hvad de ejer, bærer de i deres rygsække.På turen mærker de en ny frihed, nærkontakt med naturen og deres egen eksistens. Men hvad venter dem for enden af stien?

Er du klar til at beskytte dig selv og din familie, hvis krisen rammer? Denne bog er skrevet til helt almindelige danskere, der – ligesom de bruger sikkerhedssele i bilen og har en indboforsikring – også ønsker at være forberedt på uventede krisesituationer. Uanset om det drejer sig om en strømafbrydelse, en oversvømmelse eller en anden krise, viser denne bog dig, hvordan du kan tage vare på dine nærmeste med enkle midler og smarte løsninger. Inddelt i overskuelige afsnit guider bogen dig gennem alt, hvad du har brug for i en nødsituation – ofte med ting, du allerede har i hjemmet. Skrevet i et letlæseligt sprog og fyldt med praktiske skemaer og lister, gør den det nemt for dig at tage de nødvendige skridt uden at overkomplicere tingene. Du lærer ikke at bygge en bunker eller folde en ‘sølvpapirshat’, men derimod at forstå de små, men vigtige ændringer i din hverdag, som kan gøre en enorm forskel, når det virkelig gælder. Gør dig selv og din familie en tjeneste – tag styringen over din egen sikkerhed og vær klar til at handle, når det virkelig gælder.

An extraordinary, gripping survival story that reveals the struggles and resilience of the Colombian Amazon's Indigenous peoples.In June 2023, four Indigenous children were found alive in the Colombian Amazon, forty days after the light aircraft they had been travelling in crashed into deep jungle, killing the three adults on board. For weeks the Colombian public had been transfixed by clues of the children's survival, of Indigenous tales of malign forest spirits, and of the unconventional tactics of the huge search team. But most now despaired of ever finding the children.Thirteen-year-old Lesly Jacobombaire Mucutuy never gave up hope.Forty Days in the Jungle tells the story of how the eldest child kept her siblings safe and fed during their time in the wilderness. It follows the battle-hardened soldiers and the brave Indigenous volunteers who undertook the search operation. And it delves into the Indigenous mythology - the spirits, shamans, and psychedelic potions - that was central to the drama and made it a rescue mission unlike any other. By investigating the children's motives for travel, the tragedy of their backstory, and the months that followed their rescue, it also shines a light on the painful history of Colombia's Amazonian peoples. Lesly and her siblings were survivors before they ever set foot on the plane.
