Bushcraft Health and Hygiene - Outdoor foot care

Personal Hygiene in the woods, or on long trips, is a very underrated and under discussed topic. Poor personal hygiene for extended periods can lead to health issues both physical and mental.

In this journal entry, the first in a new series on Bushcraft health and hygiene, we take a look at care of our feet, a part of the body that is vital to our outdoor activities but often forgotten about until issues occur. Whilst practicing bushcraft, on a hike or out in the wilderness, staying off of our feet is very difficult. In a genuine survival situation this is especially true, there is just so much that has to be done to keep yourself alive.
