Primitive Camping by Kayak
Episode 69
Monday, 26 January, 2026
In this episode of the Primitive Camping and Bushcraft Podcast, Chris Speir breaks down why kayaks are one of the most overlooked tools in primitive camping.This is not about extreme whitewater or stunt paddling. It is about using waterways the way people always have to move gear, reach remote camps, and think differently about access. Rivers and lakes become highways, and a kayak becomes a working tool rather than a toy.Chris shares real experience kayak camping on Black Creek in Mississippi and at Shepherd State Park, covering how kayak travel changes the way you plan routes, pack gear, and select campsites. He explains why kayak camping forces discipline, how it reshapes your gear choices, and why dry bags, load balance, and route planning matter.The episode also connects outdoor skills with stewardship, drawing a parallel between caring for your gear and Paul’s careful transport of resources in the book of Acts. Whether you paddle, hike, or drive in, the lesson is the same. Plan ahead. Secure your load. Carry what serves the mission.If you are interested in primitive camping, bushcraft, or finding new ways to reach quiet places off the beaten path, this episode will give you a practical framework for kayak based camping without fluff or hype.
