Aka the comfiest garment in existence in every sense of the word.

I'm trying to find a nice thick pile one like this columbia one which is out of stock everywhere.

Anyone have any recommendations of a practical fleece like this? Pullover style is preferred.

Are you overheating, sweating, then freezing?

Is your clothing too tight? It should be loose. It sounds like you have too many layers to tight. It really sounds like this is it.

If you sit still without moving you're going to get cold no matter what. You have to move around some.

Then again, you might just be a giant pussy. I think this is it, you're a pussy.

Are you skinny?

I gained 10kg and could tolerate cold a lot more.

You and a mate are going to be stranded on an island for 18 months and if you survive, you will be rescued and awarded $10 million each (just go with it).

You cannot leave the island.

It's not a very large island, maybe a few miles long and half a mile wide with a 60-foot rock cliff on the windward side.

There is no spring or fresh water on the island.

The only wildlife are seabirds that stop by occasionally, an occasional sea turtle, and various sea life.

You can only bring the six items and the clothes/shoes you choose.


1. What 6 items do you bring to aide in your survival? List why you chose those items and how you'd use each one. Be prepared to defend your choice.

2. What do you do first? What's your 6 hour plan? Your 24 hour plan? Your 5 day plan?

3. Would you and your mate survive the whole 18 months so you could get your $10,000,000?

OP here. I'll go ahead and post my answers and then hopefully we can have some fun with this thread today.

I'd probably go with my cousin, who is my age and he and I have grown up backpacking, camping, traveling, etc. so I would trust him.

>our items
1. A large tarp - would be useful for shelter, making a solar still, collecting rainwater, and making a small sail for fishing around the reef that surrounds the island.

2. A hatchet/knife combo (they do exist) - best set of tools possible to making other tools, shelter, rafts, etc.

3. Flint/magnesium firestarter kit - for fires.

4. 300 feet of good rope - for making shelter, fishing line, nets, traps, hammocks, etc.

5. Coast Guard grade first aid kit - for obvious reasons

6. Snorkle/mask/flippers set - for spearfishing and diving for lobsters, clams, etc.

Why not a tent instead of a tarp?
>>
>>907774
Because a tent usually has metal poles for frames, which would quickly become rusted, and not only could I basically have the same thing with the tarp, but I could cut pieces out of the tarp to use for other things like water collection.

How's it going /out , I am getting a wolf hybrid on the 19th, and on doing extensive research , it's coming across that I may need another dog to keep the puppy company while I'm at work because of the nature of wolves. Should I request two pups from the woman, in order to have them keep each other busy during the day? It would certainly stress my abilities and time to have two, but I don't want a puppy that is not content. Pic related, the one puppy I was certainly getting.

My friends mom in elementary school had 3 wolf dogs. They were huge. She had them built a shed/house that they would stay in when they weren't home. Basically like caging a normal dog but a big one where they can walk around. I'm pretty sure if they left them in the house alone they would have destroyed it

Let's discuss bags, /out/.

What do you look for in a bag?
For me, it's:
-Minimalist/Simplistic, to not catch attention from would be pick-pocketers

-False Bottom
-Spacious, compartmentalization as well
-Durable, can take a good beating
-Waterproof is also a plus, but not a requirement

-And also can fit my 17+ inch ultrabook laptop if need be

GoRuck is nice, but literally too much of an asking price to go for it.

How bout you, /out/?

so my buddy wants to go winter camping next week up north of Edmonton....I've never gone winter camping any advice?? and all i have are some tarps and cordage and a summer tent i was thinking of building a half buried shelter out there and a big fire with a backstop to trap the heat and not use the tent at all... it's mostly sandy there and easy to dig into....if i try to sleep in my sleeping bag will i fucking die/have to stay awake all night tending the fire and then stll drive back to calgary which is like 4 hours from this location.it's onlt going to be for one nght so we can shoot guns for a full day hopefully, i'm going to pack in my water and my food so i'm basically car camping with the challenge of it being cold -7 or less during the day maybe -20 at night? if we decide to bitch out we can always stay in the car but its still no ideal to sleep in cause it's a fucking hatchback....i was thinking of making a sandy dugout and covering it with treelimbs wrapped in a arp and semi burying it in sand to trap heat

Don't go if you don't have the right gear. I never have fires while /out/, unless I'm at a campground, and you shouldn't either. Also there's a good chance backcountry campfires are prohibited. Don't be a fuck.
Just use the summer tent. How warm is your sleeping bag?

Haven't seen this started yet, so let's get it going.

Rules are simple. Make a wishlist on Amazon, and post the list here.

If you post your list, you must buy for at least one other person. Feel free to buy for as many people as you like.

Reply to the post, so that you can let others know that you've bought off that list.

Feel free to buy from OP's list too.

My list: amazon dot com slash registry slash wishlist slash 1EDBKDAM7F5RU

That's because it was done in October, and someone tried to do it different. Last year we just posted amazon wish lists, and bought whatever. There was no pairing up. That's why the last thread didn't go well.

Last year we had hundreds of replies... what gives this year?

So it's that time of year again, /out/

my parents are asking what I want for Christmas and I don't have any answers.

what are some good /out/ related items that many of us could do with, but we haven't got already?
