I am looking for a twig burner type stove to boil water on, and came across this.
http://www.kellykettle.com/
Tell me /out/. Is it good? Does it work? Are there better alternatives?

I've heard of these but never seen them before. Seems like it would hard to keep clean, not only the creosote in the chimney, but also the water chamber. If you ever got any sort of sludge or sticky mold on the inside, it would be impossible to scrub out. It would probably be hard to get dry too, so rust could potentially be an issue. Its cool in theory, but a hobo stove and a Sierra cup seems easier and more reliable. Either way, its not like you need a super efficient design to save on fuel anyway.
>>
>>680173
Plus a Sierra cup can be used on any type of stove, and doubles as a dish. All for about five bucks. You can't use a Kelly kettle on a trangia or eat soup from it.

And hobo stoves are free...
>>
I'll probably get a sierra cup instead. Would a £15/$20 "wood gas" stove be better than just drilling some holes in a bean can?

Can we get an urban exploration thread going?

I'm gonna be going to this abandoned naval jet engine testing facility in a few weeks. Apparently closed because jet fuel contaminates the ground or something. Anyone been there?

Also share stories, photos, etc.

Pic relevant. My boyfriend is taking me on a camping holiday and I'm scared. It's on the Isle of Wight. I've never had to pit my wits against nature or any of that stuff before. I've watched some Bear Grylls stuff to get me psyched but it makes me even more nervous.

How can I pursuade him that my life is in danger and I don't want to go camping. I want to go to Ibiza instead. I don't know why I'm with him he's not considering my feels. All my girlfriends say I should dump him and he is such a loser.

So, how often do you go /out/ on average?
Im including everything from day hikes so month long journeys
Naturally its only a weekend every so often for me but obviously depends on weather.
Also activities during scOUT sessions?
myself just building on our tent structure, just chucking palm fronds on an thats about it..
then fishing or chilling an playing cards
just curious sc/out/s
heres a fucking awesome webm for the scene
(on a side note if anyone can give me some DSLR settings for night photography id be in your debt....i can fuck about and get some alright shots but nothing on this level. I think i might need a better lense at base before i try nighttime photography but whatever. Lol)

I was on the snow riding 17 days of January... only at work for 9. Rest of the days were travel.

In the winter I'm out just about every weekend. Summer is when I take care of projects around the house, but still get out on the moto an evening or two a week and take a weekend or two a month to go ride.

From the looks of the webm, you know what you're doing. Maybe a little longer exposure/bigger aperture/higher ISO to up the exposure a bit.
A little bit of external light from a headlight/flashlight can make something pop out more too.

Hey /out/, I've got a puzzle-challenge for you.

Let's suppose you needed to travel by sea in an innawoods scenario. What I mean by that is your budget is severely limited and you want to avoid governments, coast guards, big trade routes and so on.

How would you go about travelling across a small sea, for example Europe - Africa via the Mediterranean, or UK - Norway via the North sea?

The challenge is you have to ROW. This is because motor boats have too much bureaucracy associated with them, i.e permits, licenses, mooring and such. What you want is a simple boat/canoe/gig, that is also reliable (motor could break down, requires fuel, etc.)

ALSO, because, realistically, you would innawoods as a team, you have to take 6-8 people with you.

So I leave it to you- what is your plan of action? Where do you get a good cheap boat? How do you sleep, feed, etc? What do you bring? How do you land? What do you do if a current takes you away and you don't have enough supplies?

Tl;dr conditions of challenge
>$2000 dollar budget
>8 crew members
>No motors or sails, just rowing
>The less noticable the trip the better, but it should stretch the system in such a way that it is legal

Have a large sized row boat (sorta like a vikeing ship - the sails). Pack a large fishing net to supply long term food but before leaveing buy a crate of MRE's. For cooking have a small propane powered stove. For water bring 200+ water bottles and a home made convection/evaporation device to purify sea watter. Idk about rute I'm american don't know my way around. I don't really know all that much about sea travel so I'll probably get lost.
>>
>>680139
Nice, where did you get that boat from? Price?
>>
I would probably buy some sea wrothy ship and modify it to hold more paddles and have storage bins. I never thought about it becuse I'm in a landlocked state so geting out on any body of water is hard.

I normally carry a towel with me when hiking/camping so I can dry myself off if I end up getting in some water. I usually just roll the towel up and use that as a pillow. Pretty sure I don't even own a regular hoodie either.

Hey /out/ I figured you guys are probably the best people to ask for this. I want a mess kit for out in the woods, I was looking at getting a repro of a world war 2 one but all the ones I find are all aluminum and I like steel more considering it'll probably be in a pack with other heavy stuff. Are there any modern ones that are good? Anything else I should consider?

Ikea Children's Cook Kit. I shit you not, next on my list for stainless!

My uncle is selling his Ranger and a utility-style ATV. I like both machines. I've been thinking of getting my own off road toy. My brothers ride dirt bikes, but I've never had my own off road vehicle to go out with them. Any green sticker vehicle would be fine, really. I'm not a good rider, especially high revvy 2 strokes. I just like to cruise.

>fit more beer/ gear
>safer?

Plus sides to the ATV
>easier to get on/off
>cheaper

Personally, I'd rather have the ATV. It's smaller and can go places that a SxS will have trouble getting into and it is easier to load and haul.

I don't see the point of a SxS at all, just buy an older, used 4x4 Toyota Tacoma or Ford Ranger instead. They're cheaper and much more functional than a SxS.
>>
>>679076
Funny you bring up a Tacoma. My uncle and cousins had to help out some guys in a Tacoma, lifted on 33"s, and 4x4. Stuck in shallow rut. Their friend in a Jeep didn't have a recovery strap or anything. But we did, and pulled the truck out no problem. Side x Sides go where trucks and Jeeps cannot. ATV's do have lower center of gravity, but I've never been on super gnarly trails on one though.
>>
Man I've drove many SxS Rangers. They're just awesome. My family has several. Dad, brother, 3 uncles, 3 cousins, grandma... all of them have their own. Mostly Rangers, a few John Deeres. One Kawasaki.

I grew up learning on ATVs, then rode a dirt bike for about 10 years. I think the SxS is as much fun as anything.

If you're riding tight technical trails, then a bike or ATV is a lot better.

If you're using the vehicle for bumming around on wider trails, it's awesome. You can have a cooler, and a ton of camping gear, and have a passenger with you.

I'm new to camping, and I live in Louisiana. I've been looking for a place to camp that isn't a park. All of the campgrounds are just cleared out areas with some benches. I want an area with dense woods and that is secluded. Any ideas?
