I've moved a lot, lived in different cities, states, and countries. But I'm New English from birth so I gotta go with 20th-21st century New England.

Are you really surprised that your $20 chinkshit filter crapped out on you?

Anyhow, most folks seem to go with Sawyer filters these days. Fairly cheap and very small/light. Probably won't last as long as a MSR, but they're less than half both the price and the size.

Basically you fill one of the pouches it comes with with dirty water, then hook the pouch up to the filter and squeeze it. Clean water comes out the other end. Just make sure you don't ever use the dirty water pouch for clean water as it'll undoubtedly contaminate it.

This bait?

>>798064
no not bait lol just wanted to start a convo on using kukris for survival

I don't really understand much about knives or blades in general, but shouldn't a kukri work much like any other knife with the exception you have to wield it in a different way due to the curvature of the blade?

I'd expect people are going to call bait because they think it's unecessary and you're just trying too hard. Good luck OP

bachelors in Geology: enjoy your hobby of Geology

most geologists have post graduate degrees

>>797882
Yeah my professors have told us we will probably need to specialize eventually.

Do you know any specialized career paths (volcanology, hydrology, structural geology, whatever) that let me work outside at least a few times a month?

>>797889
Pretty sure if you're trained in petroleum or mineral exploration you'll have plenty of opportunity to work outside in the arse end of nowhere.

What is the purpose of this thread?

Most of my merino wear has come from the Sierra Trading Post.com. Patagonia have some good deals on their website, and twice a year have huge sales.

Just got finished reading All the Pretty Horses at the beach. Pretty good stuff and I'm looking forward to the next two books of the border trilogy.

The Road is another good Cormac McCarthy book for camping. There are a couple of survival lessons you can learn from the book. Not too many, but they're there.

The trail

camping isn't necessary at all

all of the seaside towns/cities are so close to each other you can just eat/sleep in each one every lunch & night

For food I personally wouldn't spend a lot on expensive camping food. Because of all of the towns on the coast I'd say it would be a lot easier and cheaper to just buy food from supermarkets day-by-day.

>>796557
That's what I was planning, heading to tesco or whatever shop each day when I head through a town to pick up some food, or eating in a cheap cafe for lunch.
I was planning to carry about a days worth of food at any one time to for camping and keeping costs down as I dont want to fork out on eating in a cafe every lunch.
Cans on all day breakfast and shit is what I was planning, I have a little gas stove already that I could use.

>>796555
It would be quite expensive to pay for a room every night for a few weeks. I was planning on camping mostly in campsites along the way to keep my costs as low as possible, I now for a fast there are a fuck ton of camp sites on the south coast.

I don't think it's Jasmine because it had another parfume and it had only four petals

You are right, sir. I stand corrected

>"He was dogged. He was just determined," Barnaby says. "I was in trouble."

>Barnaby said she became dehydrated, her calves and thighs were aching, and there was another vicious attacker that was testing her mental strength.

>"I was going crazy with mosquitoes. There were zillions of mosquitoes."

>At about 4:30 a.m., Barnaby heard a loud noise. She quickly recognized it as a mother bear. Listening closely, trying to drown out the buzz of mosquitoes, sure enough she heard a cub respond from far away in the distance. The two bears had been separated.

>"I realized that there was a chance that the mother bear would tackle the wolf if she felt that the wolf was a threat," Barnaby explains.

>"So I made the choice of walking towards the cub."

>It worked. After walking about 20 minutes, Barnaby's dangerous plan paid off.

>"I heard this big crashing behind me and realized that the mama bear had attacked the wolf, or maybe the other way around, I don't know, but they were fighting and I could hear the wolf yelping and I could hear the mama bear growling and I could hear all this crashing and I just took off!"

>>795659
>Finally free of the wolf, Barnaby and Joey both "perked right up" when they saw a lake.

>"I had brought one can of beer with me. Silly choice," she laughs. "That little can of beer ended up saving my life."

>She drank can after can of water and finally took a break.

>"I started praying to not let the mosquitos drive me insane. Then I just started talking to people I love, some of whom are still with us, some of whom have passed.

>"As I talked to them and told them how much I loved them," Barnaby said, her voice breaking, "everything they mean to me, it energized me, and I was determined to see everybody again.

>"All night I had been making decisions of sorts, but this one was a decision to live and it was really powerful."

>When the pair finally climbed onto the highway Saturday morning, Barnaby saw vehicles parked on the road about a kilometre away.

>"I was like, 'OK, we're good. We're really good.'"

>A police truck, carrying a local RCMP officer and a Parks Canada worker, drove to Barnaby and Joey.

>"They both jumped out of the truck and we had big hugs, and of course they were full of questions, but they didn't have any bug spray for me! I couldn't believe it!" she laughs.

>Barnaby is still kicking herself for not bringing her gun into the bush, calling it a "huge mistake."

>"Don't do what I did. Don't go without your gun," she says. "Anything can happen.

>"If I had had that gun, it would've been a very short situation."
