you wear blaze orange and you sit in a blind or a tree stand. if you need a nija skills and a ghillie suit you're either hunting ilegally or you're hunting people
>>
>>633029
If you're talking hunting on the move as opposed to waiting like pic related the thing I try to remember is stop, be still, look and listen more often than you would think. It's amazing some of the things you see/hear when you're static and other animals were watching in the direction of your noise and then relax a bit and start moving again. Doesn't just apply to hunting either, there's a lot of animals that will attempt to wait you out in stillness.

alright out,

I want to go camping in 40° weather. Couldn't I just put my coals into a metal bowl, set that in a towel, and warm my tent up?

I looked online but no one has said anything about this technique. Is there anything wrong with this?

Hello /out/

I'm in the market for a new tent for my outdoor adventures. I'm involved in a local scout troop and go camping fairly often with them, along with recreational camping and outdoors activities with family/friends, and setting up my five man tent by myself is a pain when it's dark and raining.

What I need is a small two man tent, light enough for backpacking yet sturdy enough for strong winds and weather. I don't plan on bunking with anyone but it's nice to have the option in case someone forgets a tent, and also space to get my gear out of the rain should I need it. I'm 6'2" so pretty vertical walls are necessary.
Obviously I don't want to break the bank on a tent, but I understand that cheap tents are usually cheap for a reason. I'm thinking $80ish max however next paycheck I might be able to up the max a bit.

I was looking at my local scout store earlier today and saw a very neat tent set up in the main lobby that was just what I'm looking for: http://www.scoutstuff.org/bsa/camping/shelters/tents/tent-bsa-eagle-crest.html#.VnIDTRUrKHs

However that's out of my price range, I did some looking around on the internet and wasn't able to find anything similar that's in my price range that was of good build quality.

Does anyone have any tents to suggest?


Thanks.

Woot has hammocks on sale, and their tarp. Hammock for $20, tarp for $16. Add some straps and you've got everything for about $55.

I know it's not a tent, but it is an option.

Eureka Apex 2. Best tent at that price point I've laid my hands on yet. Simple, freestanding, pockets, attic, good, spacious double vestibule fly, great quality, vent, not too heavy. It ain't featherlight, but I love the thing and it is perfect going on 6 years of use.

Have any of you ever had to disassemble 550 cord bracelets, slings, belts, bootlaces, etc. to use the cord? what did you do? If you didn't have that rope, what would have you have done?

Nobody ever has done that

Because nobody who has one of those tacticool belts or bracelets is a serious outdoorsman and if they are they brought cordage that you dont have to spend an hour untying to use

Hey pals,

So I'm think of doing a cycle tour through Chile/argentina in Jan/feb and wondering what king of cookign system to bring, i have a jetboil but not entirely sure how readily available pic related is in these countries. Can anyone shed some light? Am i better off taking a multi-fuel burning system regardless anyway?

Anyone visited that part of the world with any general experiences/suggestions/concerns?

>>
For weight concerns, and travel to your start... I would buy whatever they have there. If you aren't worried about weight, get something like am MSR Wisperlite or Dragonfly, whatever the international model is that allows for many types of light and heavy fuels. You just change the jet. And your choice of a 10/20/30oz fuel canister. With those you can run alcohol, diesel, gas, kerosene, and white gas. So you wouldn't worry about what type of fuel you have access to

Any californians on /out/, specifically southern california?

I moved to socal about two months ago from WA, still have't made any friends and am having withdrawls from not having any /out/ adventures. I've been saving up money from an under the table job that is coming to an end.

I don't know the area very well and have no clue as to where to start to go do some hikes/camping trips. Especially tough since I don't have my own car at the moment.

Are there any decent/free spots near pic related?
Any other lonely fags with nobody to go out with but want to go out?

how awkward are you?

after the basic introductions say something like like " for posterity's sake lets imagine i just gave you a fantastic hand shake with the ideal amount eye contact" to break the ice.

trim your beard. dress business casual and admit you were not sure how to dress for a Skype interview. maybe crack a joke about having a change of clothing handy.

I'm never myself for a job interview...In fact half of my resume is a lie, other half is just the truth stretched out. All the questions they ask I lie through.

I now work at a hospital, making 19.34 an hour, with full benefits. Given I do work my ass off at the jobs I have.

So when asked a question, answer it right then and there. Don't fumble with your words. Think of yourself as hot shit, don't come off cocky about it.

Also this would be better suited for /adv/ not /out/

Anyone have any good recommendations for a good shell under $180.00 USC.

my Mountain Hardware Plasma was just not durable enough. It would have been the best jacket i had ever owned if it didnt puncture so fucking easy. at the rate it tears in about 3 weeks or so it will be more ripstop tape than jacket.

You could give their softshell a look. The Mixaction Dry.Q Elite Jacket is going for around your stated price on Sierra Trading Post. The softshell is going to be more durable but not as warm/waterproof if you are planning on using it to just stand in a rainstorm though.

I am in the market for a new shell myself as my old one is getting pretty ratty and I don't know if I'd trust it in a real storm anymore. Haven't used the Mixaction before so if anyone has used it before or knows a better alternative let me know.

>>
What's a shell? Just a top layer waterproof?
>>
What are you using it for? How waterproof does it need to be (I.e. how rainy is your area)?

The Marmot Precip is the first thing that comes to mind. It's basically the Mora of jackets, from the perspective of someone who thinks Moras are good value and functional for what most people need. However, if you already have issues with tearing your jackets, it may be better to opt for a "true" 3 layer hardshell, which will be more expensive and a little bit heavier, but will be very durable and fully weatherproof.

These people literally just went out into the great unknown and decided yep this is where we're going to live.
What kind of tools do you need to set up a home and live on it?

The Mormons published a list of supplies each family would need before they started their trek west. I would imagine it was similar to / based on the equipment used by pioneers on the Oregon Trail and such.

* 1 good strong wagon well covered with a light box.

>2 or 3 good yoke of oxen between the ages of 4 and 10 years.
>2 or more milch cows.
>1 or more good beefs.
>3 sheep if they can be obtained.
>1,000 lbs. of flour or other bread or breadstuffs in good sacks.
>1 good musket or rifle to each male over the age of 12 years.
>1 lb. powder
>4 lbs. lead
>100 lbs. sugar
>1 lb. cayenne pepper
>1 lb. black pepper
>1/2 lb. mustard
>10 lbs. rice
>1 lb cinnamon
>1/2 lb. cloves
>1 dozen nutmegs
>25 lbs. salt
>5 lbs. saleratus (bicarbonate for raising bread)
>10 lbs. dried apples
>1 bushel beans
>A few pounds dried beef or bacon
>5 lbs. dried peaches
>20 lbs. dried pumpkin
>25 lbs. seed grain
>20 lbs. soap
>15 lbs. of iron and steel
>A few pounds of wrought nails
>One or more sets of saw or grist mill irons to company of 100 families
>1 good seine and hook for each company
>2 sets of pulley blocks and ropes to each company for crossing rivers
>25 to 100 lbs. of farming and mechanical tools
>Cooking utensils to consist of bake kettle, frying pan
>Tin cups, plates, knives, forks, spoons and pans (as few as will do)
>A good tent and furniture to each two families
>Clothing and bedding to each family, not to exceed 500 lbs
>10 extra teams of each company of 100 families

>In addition to the above list, horse and mule teams can be used as well as oxen. Many items of comfort and convenience will suggest themselves to a wise and provident people and can be laid in the season; but none should start without filling the original bill.

tl;dr guns, food, cattle, clothes, and tools for farming / logging and repairing your other equipment

I just got to Japan a few weeks ago and I plan on climbing mt.fuji in janurary for the difficulty. I read that without snow shoes it can take over 12 hours. What else should I be bringing with me? I've hiked mt snow and mt Stratton but they're nothing compared to this. Do I need one of those climbing axes too?

I guess mountain hiking/climbing general.
