Добавлен 2 апр 2013
Teaching Drum Outdoor School is a non-profit wilderness, survival, and primitive skills education center located in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. Founded over 30 years ago, the school offers two unique, long-term outdoor wilderness survival skills immersions - the Wilderness Guide and Guardian Intensive Programs, along with other services such as the Headwaters Guide Service and various length Canoe Immersions. These courses and programs were all created to meet the growing needs of those wishing to reconnect with nature, return to balanced relationships with the Earth and themselves, and strengthen their communities.
Our RUclips channel is a place where we share primitive and wilderness survival skills, videos of our programs, as well as community life of the staff who help support the School.

Once a month, the Seekers come back to the support camp to check in with friends and family, hop on the internet, and, at this point in the year, take a break from the worst of the mosquitoes. The hike back to the support camp-different than the hike they took out to their camp in early May-features canoeing through two lakes, floating down a winding creek, and trekking through dense forest.

On May 5th, the 2023-2024 Wilderness Guide Program Seekers marked the beginning of their year-long immersion by completing a time-honored tradition-a 5-mile hike through the unique landscapes and habitats of the Northwoods. Led by our senior guide, Abel Bean, they even started to learn the very basics of orienteering, wilderness medicine, and the rich history of our corner of the Northwoods. No...

14:33, I thought they were about to re-enact a scene from Deliverance.
Wtf
This was a great lesson. Thank you. I saw what I have been doing wrong and learned some things to go practice.
I appreciate your work sir. Ive always wanted to live an adventurous and primitive life . Keep going.
Good stuff thanks
Hey Hiawatha, love the shorts and rubber stockings.
Gandolf the white put your shirt on….
Excellent 3am RUclips viewing 👀

Thank you! 🙏🏻
Well crap. Now I have to buy a canoe.
WTF did I just watch. OG canoe bum I think.
Much of this is learned naturally by the necessity of having to move and hunt in very rough and dense mountain terrain from a young age
Wonderful tutorial. Delivery of the information is so easy to understand and absorb with sublime visual presentation. Thank you so much everyone involved in getting this up on you tube. ❤
А теперь то же самое только на русском.

Those are $5 natives not true bloods. 😂
29:27. I come back to this video almost yearly to glean a new insight. In response to Paul Rendezvous saying "you can't even get out of it" referring to the human's inability to get out of his unsavory and unwholesome nature, I must say more people are waking up to their nature. More and more are becoming keenly aware keenly aware that circumstance and the multi-tiered social infrastructure of various ideologies shape who we are and how we behave. Paul Rendezvous would probably agree with the work of determinists such as Robert Sapolsky, who believe there is no such thing as free will. I think that's a very limiting notion when we might in actuality need to see human intelligence and consciousness for what it is. It's likely an expanding mind/consciousness. It's constantly in motion and it's never just one thing at any given moment in time. Additionally, if we couldn't create or see beyond our own nature, even as a civilization, then NOTHING would change our behavior from generation to generation. People are capable of bringing new ideas and concepts into existence. We can't pin everything down to "well someone handed this down to me"......or "I'm a product of my environment." Perhaps we are the only creatures on earth who can STAGE our growth and the growth of our behavior...who can attempt to tap into our evolution consciously. If we apply this to environmentalism and our relationship to the earth, I see no reason why we couldn't at least return to a more earth-aligned existence. Idk. I appreciate the conversation a lot. And it stirs me to be far more conscious and intentional in my life and way of being.
Hey, cool that somebody's still watching this thing ;) Yeah, I mean one thing I've been looking at a lot is how much trauma shapes people's individual viewpoints. I think I can relate a lot to Paul because my way of dealing with trauma is probably a lot like his - at least in terms of how it affects the way I see people. Like, I'm more of someone who sees people as dangerous and threatening, and recedes away from relationships and groups when I feel threatened. Meanwhile, I'm very aware that there are other people, maybe more Type A like Jon Young, who instead respond to that stress with more of a builder/organizer/Doer mentality - who try to address being threatened with other, more action-based, engagement-based strategies. Which isn't to say one is better than the other. When in balance, withdrawing can provide perspective and a pause for clarity and grounding, just like being engaged can mean getting things done and so on. But, of course, especially in the world as it is, we are often not in balance. And things become even further clouded when - both in the movie and in real relationships - instead of dealing directly with our trauma and it's ripples, we are instead projecting it onto ideologies that are frequently used to disguise our real underlying issues. Speaking for myself - I struggle to balance out my tendency to step back and observe with my need to engage and create things. Doing things like making the above video and, subsequently, writing my book, were nice because they combined both - creating and stepping back. The origins of my trauma have a lot to do with having to "pretend" to not see and be affected other people's trauma, and, because of that, I struggle to feel safe in groups that either have a dominant ideology, dominant individuals, (or both) unless there is some means by which I can honestly share how I'm affected by what I see. Thanks for keeping the convo going.
Emotional abusers and a couple of dipshits.
Too many open spaces above. No way to keep heat in. You should have woven in vranches to close them and heaped on snow. Rookie mistake 😮
I got to known to this game from some friends, who absolved the family year long - at least 5 years ago. Last week i understood it.
I am going to go ahead call this garbage.
Hi what canoes do you guys use?
We use canoes called Wee Lassies! They are solo hunting canoes.
Great info. nice to be reminded of this beautiful little canoe. Thanks.
What kind of canoes are those? So small!
They are called Wee Lassie's! They are fantastic canoes.
I enjoyed watching the naked hermit from Life of Brian giving a tiny canoe tutorial despite that it was of no practical use to me as a paddler myself.
Is she doing the yearlong wilderness guide program?

I like that hot rocks idea!
My only question was where was Mick Dodge, SunRay Kelly, Tom Brown Jr and Tamarack Song ? This group should meet up again like this and see if there is more to add to this conversation after so many years.
I haven't heard of any of those men besides TBJ and, obviously, Tamarack, since I was living with Tamarack when he produced the above video. But I think equally important to the teachings of these teachers is the context of who they are in relationship with those they know and/or teach. I've found that the hunger to find a teaching/answer often overshadows the complexity of what it is to be a human in relationship. And I think a lot of gurus/teachers have done themselves a disservice by letting their hunger to "get their teachings out" to as many people as possible convince them to obfuscate their weaknesses (even to themselves.) Of course we all do this to varying degrees, but I think the phenomenon of celebrity and teacher exacerbates it. I don't have it completely worked out by any means, but I think the authenticity of letting the strength of the teaching stand next to the weaknesses of the teacher, even if less likely to create a movement, is more apt to create a better world. My work on the inner tracker was actually a pivotal moment for me in this process of questioning the value of teacher/ideology-as-savior (as Paul Rezendes so passionately points out.)
@@marcusgardner7640 I appreciate your well thought out view. I agree. I was just primarily wondering why tamarack wasn't present in the group since the video was released by the teaching drum school. I threw in a few extra names and associates of John young who are all older than him like TBJ and Mick Dodge (a nomad/ex military hippie who lives in Washington, who I've spoken to once for a few hours) and SunRay Kelley who is an architect /neighbor of theirs. Figured they would've been present at such a meeting. The context of the meeting is still a bit of a mystery to me. I'd like to know how they all gathered and why. Meeting up to discuss "inner tracking" with people who may not even acknowledge the meaning of that term seemed very strange. Were they given a memo or something? Haha...the memo is a mystery. I feel for the other people who commented and said 'I have no idea what I just watched.' That said, I agree, I loved those moments where the conversation derailed, and when everybody expressed themselves freely and not according to the script or program (again, exactly what that program was is still eluding me.). It shows they're respecting everyone's freedom of conscience, and that says a lot about the group. Most organizations, and forums and platforms for organizing, don't allow challenges to their worldview. And you're right, they tend to try to control the narrative as much as possible. I felt their was a healthy balance of focus and openness in this documentary. You did a good job of showing all sides of it. When it comes down to it, a person's life is and SHOULD be in their own individuals hands. Their answers to need to come from within and not drive them towards a dependency on someone else and their way of looking at things. Granted we look to teachers and even "gurus" when they have experience in something we do not. But it's still up to us to align that knowledge with our own experience/research. I see that many do not bother to research what they hear. Worse, many don't test whether it even works or applies to them. They ironically WANT a program to follow according to set rules and guiding principles that are often too restrictive to remind them of the need to experiment, explore and grow with their ideas. Many resort to unhealthy full fledged ideologies that are exclusive to other thought forms....therefore, as you said, it overshadows the complexity of what it is to be human and finding truth(s)/knowledge. I think it's healthy to always remember that we are all just perpetual learners and should expect to reform ourselves from time to time. I've been guilty of being stuck in the pupil phase occasionally. For a few years I honestly felt that Jon Young was on to something with his wilderness school and the 8 shields mentoring program. I liked his speeches and his wide ranging application of nature to solving life's problems. I could tell that he definitely practiced a lot of what he preaches. I bought his books, got the kamana one program. Then, when I had the time to practice it and think about the premise of the whole thing, I realized that it was just not for me. I couldn't get past the pseudo native appropriation that saturates their curriculum and the bedrock of their philosophy. Their whole school of thought sits on a foundational lie in that it came from native elders and indigenous wisdom. The wisdom of any indigenous people should not be reinterpreted or mediated by any outsider. His mentoring programs had a wide ripple effect on MANY in the nature connection movement but I doubt it ever benefited the natives from which they claim this knowledge came from (at least I'm not aware of any benefit to the tribes and peoples.) I really really LIKE Jon, I think he's incredibly loving and well meaning, but, as an anthropologist, Jon ought to know better than to appropriate cultural knowledge. And as far as Tom Brown Jr it's worse, nobody should be encouraged to get indigenous wisdom from him, some white guy who claims he was mentored by an Apache native named grandfather who likely did not exist. Anyways, I'm just saying I think the wilderness school un/intentionally validated their own anecdotal practices without much scientific research, and without appropriate relations to the traditional/indigenous wisdom. The wilderness awareness school is NOT in the good graces of the tribes and peoples surrounding Duvall Washington. The school themselves recently told me that. But as I understand it, they've lessened its connection to native/indigenous anything...though it was still in their marketing last year. Jon Young stepped away from 8 shields due to those very same reasons. I really wish him well and want to be gentle with my view of that whole group. I know how easy it is to get sucked into the desperation for "answers." And it's easy to be led if you are desperate. In occasional solitude, and in our daily quiet moments, if we frequently check in with what we believe to be true, I feel that's where the seat of our sovereignty lies. I LOVE having philosophical/scientific convos. I love encouraging, sharing and and holding differing views etc. but I doubt I'm ever going to fully run with anyone's worldview again. I haven't got it all figured out either, but I don't intend to let anyone else figure out this life for me.
@@jwallaby7895 Hey would love to talk more about this. My e-mail is listed in one of the other comments if you want to chat. For some reason my replies to you keep getting deleted.
@@marcusgardner7640 I hope to hear from you! My email is in the about of my channel description.
Authority, truth, morals, time, consciousness, tradition, evolution, enlightenment, spirit, earth, civilization, war, hatred, love, forgiveness, endurance.....these men and women have my utmost respect for so humbly trying to create a space where they can all equally tackle hard subjects. This documentary is full of very powerful philosophical branches of conversation. I'd love to see more people, just simple concerned citizens document their long conversations that hinge on the search for meaning and the way in which we try to live it. And I'd LOVE to see a class reunion discussion of this same event. It should be honored. The effort and intention was clear. "How can we as teachers, mentors and guides appropriately spread love and truth along with our knowledge of nature and tracking?" It's a convo that should be had again given the times we live in now.
Beautiful thank you 🌞🦉
Thank you
Thanks for the updates
I don't understand what I've watched here. Maybe it is too edited and choppy, but this sounds like everyone is overcomplicating whatever it is they are talking about, which I cannot figure out. This video was anxiety inducing.
Keeper of the old knowledge. Guardian of the old ways.
Thank you very much grandpa.
Tip toe in my jordans
OMG, Tamarack! This program seems wonderful! Is it for 80 days? How much does it cost? How do I sign up? Namaste "BIGLY" to you and yours!
I’m hearing a lot of confusing conversations and empty words. Can truth be found , I believe it definitely can. And it all boils down to ( LOVE)!
I’m a big fan of boats that you basically wear.
It definitely is hard in some climates vs others. Imagine doing this in rural Alaska vs the Amazon jungle. Night and day.
Cant hear you.
How much does it cost to join this program?
What the hell....a white man TEACHING THE WAY OF NATIVES....making WAY TO MUCH NOISE in the woods....
Exactly.
Breaking many things as well, left a trail easy for a tracker to follow.
For all you native wannabes and apples 🍎......no matter how good you are in certain dry conditions you cannot help but to make some noise nor can any that go walking through the countryside without leaving some trace of his passing ......the best one can do is hide some of his trail spore and mask his noise as something else .....even if you move across bare rock a native tracker can still follow in your steps ....even tell many things about you....if you are man or woman....your age ....if right or left handed ....if you're white or native....if you are hungry or thirsty going to or from water .....which tribe your from ...if your tired ...if you are injured or sick and probably will know what mood you're in. But these things are easy more difficult to know your intentions , much can be known by your scent as well. The Apache could scent almost as well as a wolf . Almost , ....my son when he was five years old was with me at a doctors appointment and the nurse is sitting on the stool asking me the regular questions and my son says can I have that chocolate? The says what chocolate? My son says the chocolate in your pocket as he points to her left pocket of her nurses vest and she reaches in the pocket and her face I'll never forget that look ,she said she forgot she had a hershy mini in their and she asked him how he knew it was there , my son says I can smell it . It was a well earned piece of candy
Very good instructional. What make and model are those little canoes ??
