“Throughout my life, I always wanted to camp and hike,” said Swanson, a wilderness survival skills instructor who founded Owl Eyes Wilderness Survival.
“I grew up in Vermont, it was very rural. I spent a lot of time outdoors hunting, fishing with my father,” North said.“A lot of people are getting into survival because of the apocalyptic threats we seem to always have now,” Swanson said. During the pandemic, he was able to take his business full time: “I think there’s a real-life appeal because people, they want to learn how to take care of themselves, and usually the general public to gets into it after something happens.”
Reality TV shows like"Alone" probably help — North was tapped by producers to try out for the survival challenge show.The most important survival skill is finding shelter, Swanson said, since “the biggest killer in the outdoors is environmental exposure.”“It taps into something transcendental, spiritual," North said."The first time you start a friction fire using two sticks, it’s the closest thing to magic that I know of,” said north.
