The most important thing to remember is that foraging is both regionally and seasonally dependent. Nothing compares with just going out with a field guide and learning what's in your area throughout the year.

But here's a good starting point of easy to remember rules: http://notreallyasurvivalblog.blogspot.com/2017/08/basics-of-foraging.html

i dunno man. when I was in the military we fell asleep anywhere. with or without a bag.

Sounds more like just plain old moderate dehydration.

Drink water and try to get a good night's sleep.

>>1088090
This and do some easy workouts. If you don't workout you will get sore after a previous day's hard work.

>>1088084
Hydrate, and don't forget some SALT and SUGAR. Salt for water regulation, sugar for quick energy. You basically have a hangover and now you fucking know to stay hydrated all the time.

Stretching and a couple of aspirin will help, as will a hot shower.

Can someone explain why fly fishing is more effective in catching trout in river? Im genuinely curious because i went to the river today with my spinner rod and caught zip, even though i had good bites.

>>1087090
because wild trout are autistic, and they genuinely only want to eat something that looks like what they have been eating up until that point. fly fishing lets you fish tiny "baits" that look like inverts which reside in your stream of choice.

Take beans, rice, pastas, corn.

Also eggs, bacon, sauce or vege in a can.

Make any mix of thoses.

Dutch oven roasts turn out pretty well if you're feeding a few.

>3-4 pound rump roast, bonus points for venison
>2 Tbsp butter
>1lb baby carrots
>1/2lb celery, trimmed, stalks cut into quarters
>2 onions peeled and quartered
>4 cloves garlic peeled and smashed
>Fistful of thyme sprigs, tied tightly with butcher's twine
>4-ish bay leaves
>Salt and pepper
>12 oz. beer, preferably Newcastle or some other medium ale

Set the oven open over the coals and get it fairly hot. Add the carrots and stir it around for about 2 minutes. Add the onions, celery, garlic, and some salt and pepper and let the onions get a little color.
Meanwhile, season the roast generously with salt and pepper. Move the veggies to the edge of the dutch oven, throw the roast in the middle (fatty side up if using beef), add the beer, submerge the thyme and bay leaves. Seal her up and bury in the coals for about 6 hours or till it's fork tender.

You can serve it up as is or fish out the goods and add gravy mix to the liquid that's left. Normally I'm against gravy mix but it's acceptable when you're outdoors.

You can prep all the veggies and herbs ahead of time and put them in a single gallon ziplock bag in the cooler.

Fuckin right, new thread!

I just mowed what passes for a lawn in rural Idaho when you dont really care about having one. Although wifey has been watering it and Im starting to think a little patch of soft grass with a bunch of planter beds might be nice.

Time for some navy roll. This is growing on me. Sweet and grassy at first, then rich and savory to finish, plus one roll isnt 'too much' tobacco at once. Would it be feasible to make these out of homegrown tobacco? What would you even do?

And has anyone tried cake tobacco? I want to grab a few and store some to age.

I would replace the half n half with a different pouch honestly. Have I ever tried it? No. But it just sounds kinda weak when you could at least have borkum riff or something. Iunno....

There's some guys who do it on youtube, so I don't see why more people wouldn't at least be trying.

I know a guy that did this as a teen until his train was left in the middle of the desert for 3 days. He didn't have any water.

Eh... I wound up in NOPP for a week for trespassing. I wasn't being very smart about it though. I don't actually recommend it. Train tickets are cheap and just a scenic.

Budget

I suppose you could always buy/make an, "Alembic." Making one is as simple as adding a tube of your coffee pot and sticking it into you cup/water container.

that's actually a pretty cool idea !
but I forgot to mention that I won't have a stove with me.

Using chemicles to treat water in inland lakes is iffy at best. Especially if there a beavers or ducks present in which case there Are probably parasites In the water which won't be killed by chemical treatments.

I know you said you don't want to buy a filter but those are really your best option. I've used pretty much every style on the market and I can't recommend the hanging bag systems enough. They are the simplest to use, require the least amount of energy, relatively cheap, filter virtually everything, and they do not have any moving parts like hand pumps that might fail in the field. All the major filter brands have a hanging bag system and you can get a small one-two person one for $40-$60. Water purification is probably something you shouldn't skimp on.
