Caleb Musgrave (BushName: Oz Muskratt) was born to a mixed heritage family, in Ontario Canada. His father, an Ojibway from Central Ontario, taught him to track at an early age, and by age ten, had Caleb processing wild game for the dinner table. Growing up, Caleb was soon following coyotes back to their dens south of Ottawa, and shaping crude stone tools on the banks of the Saugeen River. Preferring to be out of doors rather than in a building, Caleb would often leave school just to be around the ducks and herons of the town pond.

By age sixteen Caleb had participated in several nights alone in the wilds, both for traditional purposes of his Ojibway heritage, as well as for his own personal growth into the man he wished to become. He had formed over half a dozen permanent wigwams, as well as slept in over a dozen different shapes and sizes of debris huts. He began to perfect his skills, and by age eighteen, had shaped countless stone and bone tools, and had made numerous fires by friction.

All the while guided by his elders, both native and non-native, Caleb honed his skills into a set of instincts. These made him become more at home under a spruce tree than under a roof. Often he will disappear for several days, to turn up again with some new found concept on wilderness living, or with a fancy new basket, depending on the weather.

With the traditional skills he has gained over the years, and his experience in survival, primitive living and self-reliance, Caleb brings a very down to earth, simplistic and honest view of bushcraft.

 
Lucas Wagner (Bushname : Broke) has been involved in the realm of bushcraft for as long as he can remember. Often, when the question “Where is Lucas?” came up at his home, his parents would most likely answer “outside somewhere”. A real passion of Lucas’  was, and still is ultra light backpacking. Carrying minimal equipment through over a decade of tripping, he developed a deep self-reliance in the Canadian outdoors. Passionate and always open to learning, Lucas has hit upon subjects, both as a student and as a teacher, that truly grasp the very essence of the Canadian Bushcraft experience.

Lucas’ history within bushcraft, has grown over the years, and his mature but exciting ability to draw the student deep into the subject has not been unnoticed. He has been involved as a leader in the boy scouts, and has even been found learning under the guiding words and hands of the grandfather of northern bushcraft, Mors Kochanski. His journeys into bushcraft have taken him to the woods of New Hampshire, Algonquin Provincial Park, and countless wild regions of our nation.

Lucas has expanded Canadian Bushcraft with the amazing talents and skills he brings to the table. Specializing in modern bushcraft, ultralight camping and sustainable living, Lucas offers an amazing perspective to Canadian Bushcraft, that has created some of the most unique programs out there. He's also one heck of a carver!
