Why does every battery powered lantern have white light? Don't they make any that have yellow, more natural light like the light bulbs in your house? It's probably a preference thing, but I think the yellow light just makes me feel more warm on cold nights, where as the white light just feels really cold.
Anyone know of any battery powered warm yellow light camping lanterns?

not really answering your op
just a suggestion

What you are looking for is an oldish xenon or kypton bulbed light. Basically anything with a tungsten filament. If you can't find what you want, they are very easy to make since you don't need the more complicated circuitry of a LED light. The only real downside is that they burn through batteries fast. You could also go really old school and get a Colman liquid fuel lantern. They are fragile and very cumbersome though.

Does /out/ wear a Gorka?
Except for poor ventilation, are there any other non-obvious downsides to wearing them for mountain hiking/fishing? They should be good for somebody whom has only used non-camo milsurp uniforms when /out/ yes?

i do wear a gorka.
can honestly say its fucking great. not to hot or too cold. havent noticed bad ventilation too much at all. but ofc my climate isnt very hot so i wouldnt be the one to ask about that. blocks wind really well and is very waterproof. and the one i have has elbow pads built in. very comfy if you for some reason have to go prone
pic related is the one i have. gorka 3 by splav. ask me anything
>>
>>995913
>splav
Do you have experience with BARS to compare the seamwork? Do SPLAV use thinner canvas?
I live in Norway so the climate is cold most of the year, and in summer I'll be in the finnmarksvidda so effective temperature will be far lower due to the windy climate

Greetings to all!
I write with a question. I have a burning desire for a long time, to just get out into the wild for a period of time. Real wild, untouched and far from towns. My biggest concern is food and water. Anyone with experience has any advice on this ? How to provide food and water for yourself for a certain period of time (not just a weekend camping) ? I guess this is a big deal, if no hunting can be achieved. Before you bash me (this is 4chan after all) please understand I'm no city boy having wild dreams. I had a hard life so far, so I'm no stranger to pain and hardship, either mental or physical. Thanks in advance for kind advices!

A water filter and a fishing pole will take care of most of what you need if you pick an area that has water and fish. Picking up a foraging guide for your region can help a lot as well.

I have a question about like this. I live near farming community out here in southern AZ the closest river is the Gila and a lot of fertilizer and chemicals from crop dusting end up in the river how would I go about purifying it? Or should i just do solar stills?

Removing shit like that from water requires a reverse osmosis filter, which you're not gonna lump around in a backpack.
On a related note, MIT and UC Berkeley just tested an atmospheric water harvester prototype using metal organic framework powders to absorb and condense moisture in the air. They say with existing technology they could make another prototype that could produce up to three quarts of water a da, even in the desert. And scaling up is very doable because so much of the tech already exists.
So moisture farming might be a thing soon.

Does anyone else go /out/ to get away from it all?I'm in a rut in life at the moment. The one person I made vowes to never leave ended up leaving me. I dont understand why, and I probably never will. But going out helps, I fell as if I can get over physical mountains I can get over my emotional ones. I love you /out/, thank you for being there when the one I though would be wasn't.

yeah, sucks when that happens doesn't it. the only thing I've learned after making lots of stupid mistakes and choices is that you can't really control how others treat you, just how you treat them (and yourself).
hope you feel better /out/ there

You can go out as far as you want, the problem is getting back.

Just stay within the archipelago and go places along the coast. There's not much /out/ in the ocean anyway. Perfect for bringing all your heavier gear if you're going to leave your boat and go far innawoods.

I've gone a little insane from reading too many adventure stories, like an autistic Don Quixote or something. I'm going to put together some gear and a small crew and go off into the jungles of Borneo or New Guinea in search of rare orchids, carnivorous plants, insects, and the like.
I've done a lot of camping but never in the jungle. I've also never had to actually trailblaze. Does anyone have any good tips or resources for learning about jungle survival/hiking/camping? I know the basics. Don't camp near swamps, bring malaria medicine, don't drink the water, only camp in clearings, if you hear everything else get quiet you should too, etc. But obviously I need more than that to go on.
>inb4 hurrrrr you're gonna die
I don't care. There's no blank spots left on the map anymore but there's still some parts we don't visit that often. I'd like to explore the jungle like the explorers of old while there's still a jungle to explore.

Remember to use bug netting over your face and such to protect from sand flies which carry flesh eating/ulcerating Leishmaniasis parasite that will literally eat your face.

>>994696
Yeah I mean I know the basics that I need to keep the incredibly deadly insects and snakes and predators away and shit. I'm looking more for information on like which plants to avoid, how to find clean drinking water in a pinch, stuff like that.
It's either this or an expedition to an unclimbed mountain in Antarctica and I feel like I probably have a higher chance of dying on that trip so I'll stick with the jungle.

Where is this? It looks like a great place to visit. Which items were cheese?
Suppose I hurt myself and now my ankle is swollen.
I MUST go hiking because of an obligation. It hurts but I can still get around. Is it better to wear boots with that high top that goes around it, or some normal low trainers?
I could support the injured area, or "give it room to breathe" bottom line is I have to walk on it anyway so what's the best way to endure this?

Supporting the injured ankle is your best course of action. An injured ankle may well be weakened, which could foreseeably exacerbate any other injuries you may incur on your obligatory hike.
>>
>>994505
Good on you, OP, for meeting your obligation despite the pain. Be sure to take pre-aleve and wrap the ankle well.

>>994528
Thanks anon, maybe I'll tape it up too.
I saw someone do that in a movie once so it should work.

y u do dis
Have any of you anons been at Chattahoochee National Forest and went through the Appalachian Trail?
How was the experience?
I live in FL and thought it would be nice to go there whenever I have a chance.
I am also doing a bit of research on firearms in that state, and carrying in that national forest. I would probably take one if I could. Just because you never know what could happen on a trail, and your a long way from help.
Another thing I am thinking about is actually getting there. If I went in car it would have to be parked there for a week or two.
Would appreciate some advice, thanks.

Not going through the whole trail, just the part in the GA, and probably not even all of that.
Anyways, watching right now.
