>regretting something that costs less than a decent lunch.
Yea, not gonna happen. It's fine. You'll get use out of it and it'll last, it's just completely unsexy because it's a cheap workhorse.

I will never understand why americans make such big think the act of buying a mora.

Weight-rated or go home.

>inb4 7kN and 8kN
You need to be 105lbs or less to use the 7kN white biner and 120lbs or less to use the others as a life safety device. OSHA standards say weight-rated equipment needs to have a tensile strength equal to 15:1.

That's a device that holds 15 pounds for every 1 pound that you weigh.
7kN = ~1600lbs. 1600lbs/15 = ~105lbs.
8kN = ~1800lbs. 1800lbs/15 = ~120lbs.

Here's a link to a biner that holds 31kN:

31kN = ~7000lbs. 7000lbs/15 = ~470lbs.
Now THAT'S safe.

My keychain biner is 8kN. Is this good enuff?

>>831226
Did you even read his post; you need to go home.

You need to multiple the amount of keys by the density of the oxygen 3 days prior to going outdoors to confirm if the carabiner can hold that many keys.

I personally would not buy any carabiner less than $500, you are just asking for shit quality.

You probably buy tarps under $1000 too.

As someone who has made wooden ladders before and know how well they rot, I'd not set foot on that.

Can I dump canadian outdoors photos? yes? ok!

Join a local club for your favorite /out/door activity. Since you're posting this here I'm guessing you won't have much luck their due to ratios and you're not the pick of the litter.

Just get on Tinder and if there is interest invite her to walk your most traveled paved trail.

I just bought this boss ass motherfucker. It was expensive but it's built like a tank and comfy as hell. It also comes with a lifetime wear and tear warranty and if you lose it they'll sell you another at half price.

>>827977
so, people told me to fuck off, did you get here because of that too?

>how should we fix it
no fixing you fucktard!

we are in an ice age for one so it's not even a good idea global warming by man is beneficial to the entire biosphere.
earth periodically gets so hot that it almost becomes a desert planet and gets so cold that ice covers everything almost to the equatorial belt.

so man is stabilizing this shit. it's actually almost like terraforming quiet awesome.

>>823706
it seems like everything is fucking melting so I don't see how we're stabilizing it.

"fix" it?

the earth has been changing long before the existence of humans, and will continue to do so long after we're all dead

>>829585
First. Also looking for another IA anon in the 515 area.

Alright, looks like I'm tripfagging now....

Get a memecaster already

I would imagine something like an AS in natural sciences or ecology would look good. What do you think you'll be doing as a park ranger?

grail knife

Shovel, machete, camping pot and a ferro rod.

>>818675
Recently deceased human, duct tape, the alcohol and the shovel

Clothing, pot, ferro rod, speedgook.

None of it is really needed, if we're talking Suwarrow, there are buildings on the island, and there are caretakers there most the year with 6 months of supplies.

Its cool.

You're in a situation where if something goes wrong you'll need a calm head and all your wits about you. Sure some people can handle their shit while high, but it's just another risk you have to be willing to take.

sitting in the bushes by park trash bin isn't "camping" OP

>>830387
no, humans moved in groups and raped just about any creature, nothing was foolish enough to attack men they had a deep ingrained fear of being mcbreakfast.

>>830387
