When I was a kid growing up in rural north central Arkansas, we just called it "camping," or "hunting & fishing." I learned a lot about getting along out in the woods from my father and uncle, and a whole lot more while in the Boy Scouts.
Lots of WW II Army surplus stuff around for camping and bustin' around out in the forests. Also would scrounge a cast iron skillet and an old pot from my mother's kitchen. Mighty good times then.
Never heard the word "bushcraft" until a few years ago on the Internet. For us it was "Hey boys, get your stuff and let's go camping."
