I'll be traveling through Norway later this month and I need to get to Lysebotn from Kristiansand.
I have an interail pass but there doesnt seem to be a trainstation in Lysebotn.
Do I travel to a city nearbye or is there a better way of traveling there?
After that ill be traveling onwards to see the preikestolen, then trolltunga, then go to Bergen.
My googlefu is failing me so I hope some local can give me the best option to travel to these places.
Pic just there to catch your attention.

OP pls...
So I have these pretty basic leather lined leather boots, which I wear with army wool/poly socks, and which my feet manage to totally drench with perspiration within a couple of hours. They also dry terribly slow - there's advice to let boots dry a whole day after wearing, and mine are nigh unwearable even drying them indoors through the night. I don't want to imagine how that would be on a multiple day hike and such.
I imagine synthetic lining or goretex would dry faster (and be less problematic even when wet) but I kinda like how leather doesn't stink like hell. Besides, I'd prefer sewn-welted boots for longevity and there are no such GTX boots that I know of.
Does anyone have experience with managing moisture in leather boots? I know about changing socks and such but don't think that would help (in fact, my socks were usually barely damp, all the moisture went to the leather). Old style leather boots had no lining at all, I could imagine that those would absorb less moisture or dry faster?
>>757238
Gore Tex is a big deal for a good reason. Historically people in warm climates just wore sandals, cloth shoes or built really low-topped, light boots like desert boots.
I mean your'e best option is just getting a solid pair of synthetic/breathable/gortex shoe/boots. Or buying like top of the line wool socks.
Most decent synthetics will last you 500 miles OD's. Don't be one of those people wearing them shits to the bar and camping, get a separate pair.
I'd also suggest trying those sweat wicking salts if you haven't already, essentially just drysol.
honestly sounds like you need to condition your boots alot. i'm employed as a leather worker in Australia and we use a mixture of bees wax and neatsfoot oil to dress all of our products.
i own a pair of danner pronghorns which i know everyone is going to give me shit for because they're not made in Murica. but they still go through the same quality control in oregon where the other danners are made. so far they're very comfortable and the water proofing is amazing. they're all leather with a gortex lining. though the gortex for me is only a back up. i rubbed the conditioner into the boots and wore them out in the wet ground and pouring rain. the water just beads up and rolls off the leather.
i've had good quality synthetic gortex scarpa boots before and the gortex lining lasted 8 months and the boots lasted 1 year before the stitching on both boots failed. i'd expect more from $300 boots, which is why i've moved on to leather.
so pretty much i recommend putting some neatfoot oil and beez wax on your leather boots (put multiple applications on and see how the fare then. if you want to get new boots. go for all leather. they may weigh a bit more and might not be as comfortable at first but they will become more comfortable as they shape to your feet and they will last longer.

This was last weekend. He has been strange as fuck at work all week. Did I handle this the wrong way?
What would you do?
We were not remote enough to bury two bodies...
>>757241
thanks for you input, but this is a serious question.
I moved to a new state and have had trouble making new out friends.
There seem to be few to no out clubs in this area
>>757233
Fuck him, he is clearly retarded. Plenty of police reports of ppl being attacked in the woods, that alone is worth carrying.

i wanna ingrave it with some runes just for fun
suggestions for runes? anything historically relevant to put on the handle?
Write some Anglo Saxon Futhorc on there, buddy

I wish you could build a traditional house like that in Finland but the Government requlations demand insulation and building materials to be more modern and synthetic. Over all If you build it all up to demanded government specs you'll have depending on luck 5-20 years before the whole house must be renovated and practically constructed again due to mold.
At the same time houses build before 1960s seem to be mostly mold free and if properly renovated can be rather comfortable to live even by modern standards.
>>756870
Why do they have to be synthetic?
>>756881
Don't really know but I could make a educated guess that major suppliers are involved..
I need a fish finder for a inland lake in Michigan. I bought a cheap lowrance but it will only give accurate reading going extremely slow. Does anybody have anything they can recommend? Im more concerned about depth reading than fish.
>>756777
I have a lowrance mark 5x dsi. It sucks. It had the same problem. Try angling the transducer down some more. like push the tail end of it down a few clicks so it points more forward. worked for mine
I'm thinking about selling it and gettig a garmin echo but I rarely take the boat out anymore so I just never got around to it
>>756894
>>757095
Poorfags gonna poorfag.
I have a Simrad GO7 XSE on my big boat. It works well as a finder and the GPS is fine. Takes both navionics and lakemaster cards as well. It has NEMA 2000 so I get fuel consumption and other stats from the engine.
My inland lake boat has a Humminbird Helix 7. Fewer features than the Simrad and no CHIRP but it is an awesome side scanner. Very accurate GPS and if you add a lake card the shit is perfect. On straight up GPS and graphing capability I prefer it to the Simrad.

>I need a fish finder for a inland lake in Michigan. I bought a cheap lowrance but it will only give accurate reading going extremely slow. Does anybody have anything they can recommend? Im more concerned about depth reading than fish.
What type of boat do you have? Also, what kind of depth...lake trout 200 ft or bass in 15 ft?
A budget fish finder for only around $100 will report depth accurately.
Is there anyway to be /out/ in the woods, living the /out/ life without a cucked hunter or forester fucking your shit up and calling the police?
>can't even put up a tarp here without a forestlord fucking your shit up if you get caught
I live in Waldeck Frankenberg, Hesse, the county with the lowest population and the most forests, but still there are alot of hunters and foresters.
Any tips to how avoid them or find a place where they never been in the woods? Just wan't to fucking chill and be alone from the pest called humans.
pic related my village
baden württemberg here. nah being absolutely alone is kinda hard. besides the black forest maybe to an extend. but yeah sometimes I really wanna be alone when strolling through the woods + I'm always getting kinda uncomfortable when I see someone walking their dog or some shit
>>756417
you must go on a campaign of homicides within the forest and convince the locals it his haunted and forbidden. then you may eliminate both Foresters and have a nice private tarp spot.

Sup guys? What materials should I look for when buying socks for long hikes, ~20miles/day during couple weeks. I need to buy new ones because last time I did a 200miles hike during two weeks I ended with my feet like a war zone. Thanks
>>756219
By synthetic liner socks and woolen trekking socks. Waring two pair of socks takes a lot of the friction away from your skin and reduces blisters.
>>756231
this
also good practice with your feet - when you stop for lunch (or, as many times as your feet dictate) change your socks, give them a rub, talc them up if you have an issue with moisture, and then put a fresh pair of socks on.
>>756231
Yup. 2 layers and 2 pairs. You should always be wearing one pair, while the other pair is drying outside your pack.
While you hike, you crush the loft of your socks. When you beat and wash them, you restore the loft
What is /out/s preferred method of consuming tabocco when /innawood/ ?
Pipes ?
Snuff ? (personal favourite)
Snus ?
Cigarres ?
Possible advantages / Disatvatanges ?
>Nasal Snuff:
>Small
>No fire needed
>No preperation needed
>No waste / reamains
>Fastest

Hey /out/
I'm in the process of making a few Altoids survival kits and need a bit of help with my fishing kit. Has /out/ made fishing kits like this before? If so can you guys share pictures and talk about your kits? Finally, are there any non-screw eyelets I can buy? Something with a flat head ( like a nail ) I could pound into the branch I'd be using would be nice.
>>756120
Didn't you get the memo about dead memes? They stay dead.
I only use these for a couple joints and a lighter
>>756120
>making a fishing kit that doesn't float in water.
You're a fucking retard, enjoy dropping all of your line, hooks, lures and weights into a river and getting hypothermia to recover them.
Use a pill bottle or a small water bottle, they float.
Thinking about getting a rush 72 for backpacking/general /out/ goodness.
Any anons have experience with that pack or similar?
Also, post your packs.
>>755715
Yesterday I bought the rush 24 for my archery hobby and bushcrafting. I think the 24 is enough for me, because I need a good handling and not a to big backpack when I am on any archery parkours or soemthing else. For what do you need the 72? Do you really need the 72?
>>755721
I backpack around mammoth lakes and the eastern sierras, usually 3-4 days so I figure the 72 is about the right size.
>>755715
Why does it have so many support straps?
#37- "Snakehead Terror" Edition
Previous Thread:
>>754112
Glad I got out to the lake today despite being exhausted from work. Caught a couple sneks but got discouraged with how many young ones I saw. Gonna be time for some ultralight action and a Mepps #1 so I can get as many 8"-12" sneks possible.
I still need to catch a Peacock Bass.
If anybody has any more reccommendations for the "Combos Under $100" from the last thread, let me know. I was trying to pick combos that are generally sold at multiple retailers. Too bad Shimano doesn't do a Sienna combo. I would shill that hard.
Let's talk fishin'
>>755627
>Combos Under $100
Top to bottom, left to right.
1) Abu Garcia Ike 2- $39
2) Quantum Bill Dance- $39
3) Shakespeare Ugly Stik GX2- $49
4) Pflueger Trion- $59
5) Bass Pro Tourney Pro- $59
6) Lew's Laser Speed Spool- $59
7) Abu Garcia Cardinal SX- $69
8) Daiwa Revros- $69
9) Mitchell 300- $69
10) Pflueger President- $79

Open to suggestions as always. I don't think Mitchell gets enough love sometimes. I had an old Mitchell combo that I gave to my bro, has to be 15 years old and still works great. One day I might grab one of those green 300 combos, they look nice.
caught this grunt fish tonight, turns out I read online they are poisonous, sent me to emergency room with 4 large bites. i will have last laugh as it is boiling in a pot on the stove right now. doctor place iodine substance to reieve poison so i also add a few drops to the pot of water to purify before eating.
Anybody tried making their own lures? Friend has made a bunch and has just started catching fish on them, pic related.
Ok guys I found this hole. Lools like it may go further. Should I explore it?
Yeah but watch out for anything living in it Anon :^)
