"Fieldcraft" is an all-encompassing term for different outdoor skills pertaining to navigation, personal camouflage and concealment, first aid, combat casualty care and various survival aspects. Fieldcraft goes beyond that and includes mobility, firearms skills, effective observation, and escape and evasion techniques.

Mike Glover is the owner and CEO of Fieldcraft Survival, located in Heber City, Utah. Reflecting the description of fieldcraft, Glover developed a training school that includes basic and specialized training on various types of self-defense, medical, fitness, mobility and wilderness survival. Fieldcraft Survival also offers videos on family preparedness, pistol/carbine and fitness programs on the digital option side of training.
Glover described Fieldcraft Survival as being a minority, 100 percent service-disabled, SOF, veteran-owned business. He started Fieldcraft Survival after his extensive military experience in the U.S. Army, specifically the Green Berets and Special Forces. He has a lot of experience working in austere environments. He earned a bachelor's degree in homeland security and surrounds himself with a very capable team that comprises Fieldcraft Survival staff.
"The company is composed of individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds in the military, survival, medical and overlanding communities," said Kevin Estela, Fieldcraft Survival's director of training.
It's definitely not a typical survival training school. There's also a "Fieldcraft Survival" podcast hosted by Glover that features the guys from Fieldcraft Survival speaking freely on survival, tactics, defense, gear, fitness, overlanding, military and more. All things regarding preparedness and survival from this podcast can be found on iTunes and Spotify.
