Lol that head is going to fly off. Who would make the lip that small?

>>758711
Thats not a lip the lip would help and the lip is actually the circular part on the bottom, the thing you're saying is small is called the eye but yeah it's way to small it's just a disaster waiting to happen.
>>758704
I forgot to search for an axe thread so sorry i guess but also because it would probably never get answered

>>758557
Get a slingshot

Whatever you do, make sure the animal suffers as much as possible. Also, don't eat it, just take trophies.

>>758557
Bow hunting is a lot more of a challenge. It depends on what you want out of it. If you don't give a shit about sport or a challenge, go rifle, 100%. If you want a challenge, go bow, though maybe starting with a rifle and going hunting with an experienced hunter who has taken game and properly cared for it might be a good start.

An actual fishing kit will do much better. And knowing how to make traps including fisshing would do better. But a couple hooks and weights just might save you if you have a good idea of how to fish.

>>758144

I thankfully do, I only need the rod, and hooks and bait. I'll upload a picture of the container in a min.

This is a good trick for the fisherpeople on /out/ who have a problem with the hooks on crankbaits getting all tangled up. Using the rubberbands has saved me many a headache, somebody from here actually posted this video as advice.

The little rubberbands can be found in any drug store like Walgreens in the hair care section. They are only $2 for a bag of around 200 of them.

Cairngorms is the best imo for accessibility, local towns and the decent walks. Hopefully doing a few munros this month.

We have a few wooded areas up in Scotland left m8. Not many I'll grant, or very big, but there are a few.

Stay the fuck out of Snowdonia

I was coming up from Beddgelert to Pen y Gwryd last Friday and no joke there were better than fuckin' 40 cars ticketed up for parking on the roadside. Gwynedd council is kicking ass and taking names when it comes to things the area now

Not much to tell but kind of a funny story.

I don't know what that even means.

Sounds cool though, tell me more.

not him but international waters are basically the oceans, all countries agree that they belong to no one and no laws apply

"living" on international waters practically voids your citizenship and opens you to complete and utter destruction and exploitation from bad weather, pirates, dangerous and opportunistic oceanfarers of all kinds, and foreign navies.

newp. the coast guard isn't going to rescue your ass if you're 200 miles out "living the dream" at your own risk

Skinwalker larvae. Almost certainly several dozen more spread around the area.

This isn't skinwalker larvae. I wouldn't worry about it.

what area/town/city etc of maine are you in

>>759749
I'm looking anywhere on Mt Desert Island, probably Southwest Harbor. The further from Bar Harbor you go the cheaper land gets, but I need to stay on the island.

>>759755
>MDI
your idea probably wont happen

>And what if I want to permanently live in such a cabin?
unless you can find one that is already made it wont happen. for a building to be marked habitable, you must have things like, water, hot water, electric, septic/sewer, means of egress in bedrooms, etc.

>Is there more shit to worry about if the town considers it a permanent residence? Can I lie and say it's a toolshed or something?
generally if you want something to be classified as an out-building(aka a shed) you need another building that is a perm. residence


>what kind of town codes did you have to adhere to?
for a _completely_ new building you must adhere to

international residential building code
uniform plumbing code
national electrical code
whatever the fuck energy code they adopted a few years ago. MDI has a population above 2,000 so they de facto adopted the code.

Why? Do you want to feel like you, as a non-white America, can fit in as a Mountain Man?

>>759725
I'm kind of curious why other races don't seem to participate in the same dream.

>>759727

Realistically, the prevalence of European American citizens becoming Mountain Men was (is) probably related to our higher population, particularly in those isolated regions located near the wilderness.

if you're in it for the function, you'll be just as good with a wool jacket from the thrift store
if you're in it for the style, then of course go with the patagonia

>>758393
I am in for both honestly. I tried the nano puff and really liked it. I don't like bulky clothing so much and the idea of a slim comfortable jacket over a T-shirt is very appealing. I also think of it as a future investment if I do get in any type of outdoor activity.

Also I'm allergic to wool so that would not work. Is it considered douchey to use outdoor gear in daily life?

>>758394
>Is it considered douchey to use outdoor gear in daily life?

people who judge on brand like that are just as bad as posers who wear outdoors gear bu never actually go outdoors

that said, some people who recognise the brand might raise their eyebrow at you wearing it for day to day use given its high price—people call it patagucchi for a reason

Look up how river trail. Probably the best through hike in Washington. Also the hoods port (North of Shelton) area is insanely beautiful with the biggest variety of great hikes. Lake chelan is beautiful! And I recommend Mt elinor for a day hike (can be tough if you're not conditioned) staircase is also amazing.

Lena Lake is a great place to hike to as well for a day hike. Even better to camp at. If you're really adept at hiking, you can make it to upper Lena Lake and back in a day. Roughly 20 miles round trip with 6k in elevation.

On the eastern coastal side, I recommend visiting kalaloch beach. It's way more Beautiful than lapush which gets all its fame from twilight. Go to beach 4 at kalaloch. Try for low tide if you can. The tide pools are breathtaking. It's a black sand beach. I've seen sting rays whales, tons of Eagles and deer, sea enenomies, starfish, etc.

The only good part about port Angeles is the seafood restaurants, and the ferry to Victoria... If you make it as far south as Olympia, I'd be willing to have a beer with ya!

>>758415


Corrections, it's hoh river trail.
And kalaloch is on the western costal part, not eastern.

Ocean shores is meh. A touristy town. I'd go on a weekend day if you do.

Aberdeen sucks. Sucks big balls. Don't waste any time there. It's only thing it ever did was produce Kirk Cobain. If you. Need to go through it, just keep driving. Ask any local around any place outside Aberdeen. You'll get the same response.

Also, if you drive through Bremerton, it's amazing to see the naval aircraft carriers. They're so much bigger and more impressive in person.

>>758388
take hwy 112 form neah bay towards joyce, drive through Pillar Point, Salt Creek rec area (nice campsite with direct adjacent access to strait of juan de fuca beaches), Striped Peak, Freshwater Bay. Then double back on hwy 112 just a few miles and, via olympic discovery trail road, *head up to the north shore of Lake Crescent* (beautiful lakeside /mountain scenery) . from there you can proceed east on hwy 101 to Port angeles.
FYI Ocean beach locations around oly pen can be sort of meh and take lots of time to get too but nice if you have the time.

No.

Just having a lot of undeveloped space does not make a state /out/. AL has no compelling geography, no mountains no deserts no tundra no great forests. You have some tiny bit of coastline but it is developed.

>>758199

>such a shitty state, they didn't even let them have a fair share of beaches

Alabama actually doesn't seem too bad for /out/. If you are further north in the state, I bet the weather is pretty mild year round for hunting, fishing, and general innawoodsary.
