You should already know the essentials or you shouldn't even be going on the trip.

Nopeus Exterminatus

What does an apartment have to do with /out/? Put some dryer lint into a ball and place it into your fireplace. Place small twigs over it in a teepee shape with slightly thicker (finger width) sticks over it about 9 inches long. Take your fire starter and scrape it with your knife so that the sparks land on the lint and ignite it. Gently blow until the sticks are on fire. Gradually add larger wood to it until you get up to the size you want to be burning.

I didn't know what other board to ask about starting a fire. Don't you guys like to do campouts and stuff? Thanks for the advice.

>>888648
Just don't use liquid fuel to ignite it or anything stupid and keep the temperature in a good zone so creosote doesn't start building up bad in the chimney. I mean crumble up newspaper, paper, cardboard, anything. Get some smaller kindling and put it on top, light paper or whatever. get sticks going, add larger wood. It's all basically the same. The only thing that changes is for outdoors you may not have the right stuff and have to make due if you don't prepare.

How many whores did ye plunder?

water

what kind of camping? are cars involved? is a campground involved? we need at least rudimentary information OP.

yes you need food & water as a starting point

>>887893
Camping at a regular camp ground, one lil car, can fit three of us comfortably.
Camp ground really doesn't care what you do as long as you don't kill anything and basic amenities block

>>887878
Don't car camp. I can get beautiful sites on lakes, just gotta get there first (backpack)
Make food at home, or just buy the cheapest stuff you can.
Drive out will take gas, but less hopefully.
If you go near woods, wood is free.

Sigh...

Electric lawn tool use is the leading cause of yeast infections for males age 18 to 65.

>>887480

If you're looking to do some really hard-core blowing, you should try asking on /soc/. They're the real experts around here.

>>887480
OP try >>>/diy/. Also, as someone who sold lawn care products many years ago I would not generally recommend an electric, especially a cordless. Cordless is good for clearing off the porch and patio and maybe sawdust in the garage, corded electric is good for de-leafing the flower bed, walkways, and the pool deck, and gas is for everything else.

I mean, only you know what size job you need to tackle but running the battery out on that thing before you're done dusting or whatever and it's gotta charge for hours. If you can't use a corded one because it's a job site buy a cheep gas one. They can be had for under $100.

Do you have any pics or better descriptions of the job at hand?

I would generally assume they are talking about electrical hookups for campers/RVs

Solid first post

Man it sure sucks that we need to insulate ourselves so much in the winter.

I laid myself out a lovely bed of sticks but I still freeze in the night, so it's not enough.

But I'l never use a tent, tents are for faggots.

I need more sticks..

What the fuck

Work for a farm first, at-least a year, this is not a if, but or maybe, just fucking do it.
You may absolutely hate it, then you know not to start a farm.
Try and find a course on livestock agriculture as well, it should teach you on what to do and how to do it. Find out about the business side of things (Supplying retail stores, marketing e.c.t.) and save alot of money.

Desert camper here, I always pack a tent because fuck waking up to scorpions or snakes in your bag with you. I usually camp during the cooler parts of the year, but I do have a sleeping bag my mom made me out of 2 Mexican blankets sowed together that rules for summer camping.

My old Queensland heeler ruled for AZ weather. But she would have ruled anywhere.

If you are going to hammock inna canyon look to cams and wedges for rock climbing and 50' of webbing, sling your hammock on a long line.

I'll still do The Canyon in June and July, but admittedly, full survival mode is indicated.

Pic from tail end of last May on the South Kaibab teail. It was still early morning.

>>884863
No reason to use a tent. I usually pack a collapsible hammock stand if I'm going somewhere without many trees.

If you up your budget to 180-200 you can get a decent pro trek. The 3000 has compass, thermometer, altimeter, barometer, sun rise and set data, and solar recharge.

If you are interested in survival being able to note presure changes is super nice. Also not having to mentally think about how long until sunset is nice when deciding on setting up camp and deciding on trails.

This

If you're after a suvivalist, military, outdoors watch that won't fail, don't fall for the Farmin or Suunto Meme where those watches have a million cool features but will die on you in 2 weeks to 18 hours.

Go for something simpler that has your basics and compass capability, altimeter optional that stays working via Solar or Kinetic. Chances are it won't be too expensive either.

Just get the Gshock 9400 gw-9400-1cr has all the compass shit and solar powered and it less than $200. Doesn't look too bad either.
