Also, I have a Garrett 250 and if I use pin point and put the detector to the air it goes off. Also, I found some rocks that may have metal in them

You should filter and sanitize your water regardless of the source. Yes, you could use that, but I'd rather distill such water sources.

What a douchebaggy way to get water

If sphagnum moss is growing, dig a hole in the sandy/mucky soil and it will fill with water in no time. Run it through a cloth to filter out sediment.
Boil or filter.
If you're feeling lucky, chug it raw and spit out the grit.
Kid these days. Sheesh.

What will you be doing?
>car camping, backpacking, hunting, etc.
>single wall or double wall
>will you be using tent poles or trekking poles

we need more

Can anyone recommend me a tent for one
I don't want to socialize while I'm camping anymore

We didn't deserve that.

I'm usually as colourful as a parrot, I get my gear from all over the place and I really don't care how it looks, so nothing really matches.

My biners are different colours because I use them for differnt things, so I know which one is for what with one glance.

the only things that i have that are intentionally coordinated are my cam/biner pairs (i.e. red cam has red biner, yellow cam has yellow biner, etc), so i can grab the right size off my harness more easily.

I don't particularly color match because I'm not a /fa/ggot but I do stick to earth tones like dark green, brown, tan, grey and black as much as possible. Really dislike these bright oranges, reds and yellows that seem to dominate outdoor gear. I do, however, have a bright orange beanie in my pack just in case the unfortunate happens and I need to be seen from a distance.

As for the Aether AG, I used to own the Atmos and Manta AG and they both squeaked like a motherfucker because of the AG system. You might have better luck but I think it's down to the design and material used.

Only one I've been to was Tahquamenon Falls. Beautiful place.

A friend and I did a two day hike along the NRC/Manistee River Trail. It's inland from Manistee about 40 miles, and was a nice two day hike with some decent elevation change and places to camp along the Manistee River. I'd suggest checking that out.

You can hike right the fuck out of my state you goddamned tourist

Well your insane but i don't know which one teaches insanity better.

You do know there's alot of pretty fishes at about 20m deep?

Nice. Was just hiking outside of Oakridge and went through many sections of previous forest fires.

>>981226
You get lost? This was just a prescribed burn and i ended up 1/4 mile off trail when it met with another larger trail.

When everything is burnt it all looks like a trail lol. I did see 2 ponds i probably never would have noticed though.

Nah had a really great time haha not many folks up in the mountains this early

how much honey do you average per hive and do you do any planting of nectar-rich plants?

>>979396
You can harvest between 30 and 80 lbs of honey per hive per year.
I don't plant any plants intentionally for the bees because the bees will actually fly out 6 miles and return home each day. There is a botanical garden near by and they probably spend a lot of time there.

Anyone interested in bee keeping?

>>979592
I'm planning on getting into beekeeping as soon as I live somewhere other than an apartment. I missed my local beekeeper's association beginner class a couple of months ago, so I'm waiting for the next one to come around.

Any advice or recommended literature for an aspiring apiarist?

No, their products are shit and I already have all my outdoor gear

I already have near full Patagonia. Which I'm more than happy with.

even if those zombies are exothermic, pretty sure any place with a decent winter would render them immobile husks. a few freeze/thaw cycles would strip any ambulatory flesh off them in quick order.

Basically, I arm my 22-28 y/o Philipina Rifle Squad and do nothing but "drills" until the habbiniigg.

Mmm...

Opinions are mixed. Unless you have young children, people will tell you to just get a tent or refurbish an airstream. On the one hand they're okay, but on the other they're shit and don't come with a toilet which the the only good part of a camper.

Friend of mine ripped off a corner jack first trip /out/.

A Coleman, its really nice, deluxe actually.

But a 12 man canvas pyramid tent is far more portable and far cheaper.

It's all up to what you want, there is no bad way /out/, unlike the elitist fags will tell you.

Make sure you bring a spare winder (The thing you use to wind it up/down) in your car as well as your trailer. At very least find some tools eg spanners that fit the slot so if you lose yours you can still wind it up/down. Ridiculous to mention, probably, but trust me losing it half way through a road trip with no spare is a horrible experience, had to make some amalgamation of tire iron and spanner

What do you want to end up looking like? Do you have pics of the bum you'd like to become?

>>983802
The first pitfall is that you become so stupid that you can't check the catalog and post this shit where it belongs

Hmmm... Could it be...? That you're an utter spastic? With all due respect, you're an idiot. Seriously. What do you expect? To look like a crisp businessman? Idiot. Think again before posting.

Northern Ireland. It sucks here. Biggest forest is about 2 miles and all forests are commercial, which means no camping, boggy ground and a strict no fire rule.
There are moors, but most are literal bogs.

Im an american living in the southern uk, theres plenty of countryside here, nothing really epic like back home but you also dont have to worry about bears and shit here

>>983197
Sure, we don't have to deal with bears, but at the same time we basically don't have any wildlife at all. It would be nearly impossible to survive outdoors while hunting, as there's basically nothing to hunt.

As a fellow smoker, let me just tell you that altitude fucking kills people like us. At 13,000', I could barely breath after walking 100yds slightly uphill.

Go move to the mountains and acclimate to the thin air for a few months and maybe you will have a chance.

Hold your breath when you exercise. You can take 2 breathes then hold 30 seconds and repeat. Hold it longer as you get better at it. That's how I used to train for competitive cross country running. Then during the race I'd breath normally.
