For our ancestors, this time of year was about more than a feast. It marked the turning of the season — the harvest gathered, the land preparing for winter, and a moment to be grateful for what the earth has provided.

This Thanksgiving Monday, leave the screens and shopping behind for an hour and come join us at Barefoot Bushcraft & Archery.

Take up the bow. Feel the cool October air. Hear the string snap and the arrow strike the target. Spend some time outdoors with family, friends, or simply yourself.

🏹 Archery sessions available Monday
🌲 Beginner friendly — no experience required
🎯 First-time shooters are always welcome
👨‍👩‍👧 A great Thanksgiving activity for families and friends
🍁 Outdoors, among the colours of the changing season

The harvest is in. Winter is coming.

Come loose a few arrows before it does.

Take a basic Bushcraft course!!
In a recent, impromptu, trailhead survey we asked hikers how prepared they were.
30% of HIKERS:
📱 did not know that 911 is the # to call for on-trail emergencies.
❌ did not tell anyone where they were hiking or share return ⏰.
🧭 did not have a trail map 🗺️.
💭 did not research trail or weather.
🧥 did not bring extra layers.
Thanks to Squamish Search and Rescue's SAR Prevention Team for conducting this regional survey.
Get informed before your hikes this weekend!
Being AdventureSmart is cool 😎 plus it helps keep you out of the news!

There’s something deeply satisfying about taking a simple Mora knife, a chunk of wood, and turning it into the beginnings of a fire. 🔥
Here she’s learning batoning — using the knife to split wood down into smaller, finer pieces of kindling — before putting that preparation to work and getting a proper flame going.
Bushcraft isn’t about fancy equipment. It’s about learning what your tools can do, understanding your materials, and building confidence through practice.
🔥 Batoning
🔥 Kindling preparation
🔥 Fire building
🔥 Practical hands-on bushcraft skills
Come learn with us at Barefoot Bushcraft.

🏹 FIRST TIME WITH A BOW — BULLSEYE! 🎯

We had the pleasure of welcoming the famous dog trainer Dave “The Dog Man” out to Barefoot Bushcraft for some archery.

This was Dave’s first time shooting a bow — and after pulling back, taking aim and letting his arrow fly… he planted it right in the bullseye! 🎯

One of the things we love most about teaching archery is introducing complete beginners to the sport. Everyone you see in our archery videos is learning, often picking up a bow for the very first time, so these aren’t experienced competitive archers showing off polished technique — they’re real people discovering archery.

And sometimes, the very first arrows are the memorable ones. 😎🏹
