Peter experiments with 18’th century cooking. He cooks fat back, eggs and onions on a trivet in his open hearth rumford fireplace. He then makes and fries bannock while discussing its history as a food source across cultures and as a staple of the pioneers in the 18'th century. The bannock is much preferred over the saltiness of the fat back!
While scouting out new hunting grounds, he discovers a well in the middle of the forest. It is presumed to be from an original homestead and would have been hand dug. The stones are dry laid. Peter discusses the hazards of such an endeavour and the necessity of having a reliable water source.
He then begins splitting out cedar for the ribs and sheeting for the birch bark canoe, he will be building in the spring.
