On Wednesday, February 6th, Greg Wilson of FreeStone Expeditions taught a Bush Craft class to attendees of this Mappy Hour event at Mighty Hatchet / 718 Cyclery

After a brief description of what Bush Craft is (and isnt), the class was broken into smaller groups to work on lashing and knife skills.

This was a hands on session. Its great to connect with others in NYC who have similar interests.

The evening culminated with a speed lashing contest, with the winner getting a great Swiss Army Knife. Also, many thanks for beer sponsor Sierra Nevada
