GEAR REVIEW: Mainstay Ration Pack, Energy Bars & water
This is a versatile product that will suit hikers, hunters, endurance athletes, Preppers and basically anyone else who likes to be prepared for anything from an unexpected vehicle breakdown to nasty weather rolling in.

Hike or Die TV: Episode 5 – Solo overnight hike with Craig
It’s no secret that Craig and I have been delving further and further into solo hiking and camping of late. After my solo canoe trip through the Noosa Everglades I felt, and still feel that something changed inside me. It’s still difficult to put into words but there is something quite primal about being alone in the wild and depending on your own judgement for […]
Hike or Die TV: Episode 4 – Chasing Dragons – The Eastern Waterdragon
I recently spent a couple of days camping on the bank of a stream in South-East Queensland, Australia. It was a fairly relaxed affair and the plan was to get up into the mountains and check out some potential locations for future Hike or Die TV episodes. Now, If you spend enough time around rivers, creeks and waterways in Australia, sooner or later you are […]
GEAR REVIEW: SOL Emergency Bivvy (Emergency Survival Blanket)
An emergency blanket is something that any outdoor enthusiast, hiker, survivalist or even SHTF prepper should already have in my opinion. It’s such a lightweight and physically small package that there is almost no excuse for having one with you. The uses are limitless. From procuring water to cover from the rain and of course their intended use for maintaining core body temperature, these guys […]
GEAR REVIEW: Gerber Crucial Multi-Tool – (A great hiking or Bug out bag knife & multitool)
I love this knife/multitool/whatever you want to call it and it’s no secret. I’ve tested it on many hiking, camping and survival expeditions over the past couple of years. I think that when you set out to buy a tool of any kind, as an individual, you have a list of boxes that you want it to tick. Unfortunately the cost factor does come into […]
Hike or Die TV: Episode 3 – Solo Canoe Adventure PART 2 – Noosa, Australia
This episode of Hike or Die TV sees me complete the last half of my 3 day canoe journey through the Noosa Everglades in the Upper Noosa River system. After paddling and hiking for two days the fatigue started to take it’s toll. Simple tasks like filming were becoming increasingly difficult and I had to force myself to continue to do so. I’m grateful that […]
Hike or Die TV: Episode 2 – Solo Canoe Adventure – Noosa, Australia
In late 2012, after around 6 months of planning, I finally set-off on my first solo trip. It was a 3 day, 70km canoe journey into an area of Australia known as the Noosa Everglades. At the time, Hike or Die was nothing more than an idea but I decided to film as much of the trip as possible even though I didn’t know what I […]
