That's a nice idea for Christmas lights. I wonder what they used to make those rings.

You could make one yourself

Just like you, animals go to where there is food and water. In “event of bad times set up near water. Fishing is the easiest way to obtain animal flesh probably.

There's 2 of these threads every week at least. Let me save you, and everyone else that would post some time.

Don't fucking choose to be homeless, or train hop, or whatecer idiotic bullshit youre planning.

Stay in school. College is easy, like insanely easy. You literally have to just go to class, not be stupid, study a bit, and then get a degree. I did it. It's not hard. At all. You're in community college, not Harvard.

Don't quit your job you fucking moron. You have a cotton jacket, shitty backpack, and a gun that will kill you before anything you are trying to shoot at. Don't worry you wouldn't have hit it anyways. If anything you should be working MORE, not less. Get another job. They're everywhere if you're willing to work. $9.50 an hour is good for some joke ass college kid with no skills and clearly little motivation.

None of your plan is long term. Living in a van or tent is still homeless. It's a shelter, not a home. Where are you going to shit? Shower? Get food? Stay warm? You have no skills and no plan. Do not fucking do it under any circumstances. Ever.

So you live with your parents? Stop being such a fucking cunt and get along with them. Work extra jobs, get a degree, and then you can move out and never see them again if you want.

You're not mentally normal. Clearly you're not. Seek counseling. I promise you it will help. I'm not being an ass, counseling with help you.

a shotgun in that setup would be legal under US federal law. check your particular state laws

Pretty much every dog has sharper ears than you. If you want the dog to hunt with then the best one depends on what type of hunting dog you want. There are a bunch of different types sighthound, scenthound, retrievers, points, etc. Then you have to train them from birth to do what you want, and even then they might still suck at hunting.

I don't think a dog will be much help keeping you safe from bears or wolves though.

I looked through and German Shepherd caught my eyes most of all.

If I'm with a dog it can help me hunt and speak if there are animals nearby at night.

After that we tag team any bears / wolves. Obviously I would avoid this though and use all manner of deterrents.

Il probably die before my dog as I'm equally if not more loyal than 1

Go with a group and theyll show you everything to do...

>>638135
Yeah but thats not what Im asking.
Sure I can go with a expedition with no exp and have literally no know how..or I can do the reasonably smart option and start at the beginning. Thanks for the input though. I do know what expeditions exist to bring beginners up top but I just dont feel that would be the appropriate route.

Start by leaving your mom's basement. The hike up the stairs might wind you, but don't give up. Maybe the second day you could go outside. If you get that far let us know

NAU in Flagstaff, AZ used to have one of the top rated Forestry Programs in the world, not sure now.

>>638058

Nothing. There are no jobs in America without a significant lifetime investment (aka debt slave), or you know somebody on the inside (aka cronyism).

My good friend has a degree in Forestry, as far as I know you either work for a logging company or the state or federal government.

I'm moving to Boulder from the midwest soon and was surprised to see this happening in Colorado. It seems much more progressive than here. Are these kinds of people very common there or is it just a case of wackos are everywhere?

>>637939
Well, they did ban high capacity magazines a while back, so that sort of limits your options to cripples, fat people and pregnant women if you're going for a high score.

I had looked into it briefly, but didn't end up getting a pair because I don't really hike in situations where I need gaiters. Sounds neat though, let us know how it goes.

>>637828
Just to point a few things out...
They take time to put on, for example when you want to change socks or something.
They stop circulation in your feet if you pull them too tight.
They will usually get really dirty. Wool cloth doesn't get dirty easily, but it's comparably harder to wash.

So what are they for?

wat

Starting backpack? It's pretty fuckin great.

My first pack was a shitty 100 dollar rando brand I bought from cabelas. Hiked for two weeks with it. If you're buying osprey or aether and spending more than 200, you're probably fine.

I would only recommend going to an actual store, getting fitted, trying it on etc...

Definitely go to a store and figure out your size first. Even if you don't buy it from that store.

My first pack was an Osprey Kestrel 48 and I haven't felt the need to upgrade yet. It's durable, well made, and everything I need. It's the kind of thing you'll keep around for a long time even if you decide to go ultralight or something. It's just as good for regular travel as it is for backpacking.

Plus they have a lifetime no-questions-asked warranty. So if something does break, even if it's your fault, they will fix it or replace it for free.

It's a pretty expensive pack for a starter pack. BUT if it fits all your gear nicely really can't go wrong. 70 Liters is a good space for 3-4 days and they claim it handles loads up to 50 lbs very comfortably so that's more weight than you will use.

Lot's of people for their first pack spend something like $30-$100 and is like 50 liters and under but then you are really limiting yourself what you can bring and how it can be packed.

>cheaply and comfortable

pick one.

Winters down to minus 30 celsius. Safety of my stuff in a tent, lack of hygene possibilities.

I can't stand him. He takes himself waaaayyy too seriously. He also likes to ramble on and on with useless information in all of his videos.

Needs more sprinkles.

other angle at the face, no molars could be found anywhere around it

It was a buck, Someone probably hit it with a car and cut the head off, then cut the rack off at home and disposed of the head in the woods.. Where was this at?

I'm in Canada and we haven't even had a single snowfall yet, and no snow is forecast for at least a week.

I just want snow right now, already put all the Christmas lights outside.
